Here’s the cake I got for my birthday yesterday featuring an amabie that I drew. (Or in this case, Angel-bie) Keep swiping to see the original drawing and my birthday tea.

My birthday’s tomorrow (Aug 19) and a few days ago I had the idea of making a wishlist of things people can draw form me (plus a reminder to buy my stuff and donate to my Patreon and Ko-fi) on my Twitter account. Of course that list included several of my personas and OCs so I pulled together some old drawings I had and made some ref sheets with some added notes. I’m very pleased with how they turned out and they were a lot of fun to make which is the main reason I wanted to post them here.
I also wanted to post the ref sheets on Instagram but ended up going completely overboard. I had started by adding patterns behind the ref sheets to fit them into squares and ended up recreating the whole list in picture form. I worked an entire day on it then I woke up the next day and was like, “…I didn’t need to do this!! I just wanted to share the ref sheets!” So because I worked so hard on them and because Instagram doesn’t like tumblr that’s why those last four images are here.
You can read a recreation of the thread on my personal website with extra commentary here: https://www.cattype.net/single-post/ref-sheets (Another birthday wish of mine is that you’ll leave a comment or like.)
You can make something for me if you want to of course. And don’t worry about sending it on the day of my birthday. You don’t need to put the extra pressure on yourself if you don’t need to and I’ve always loved belated gifts anyway. Actually, I’d be happy if you just submitted whatever yokai art you have to @jigokuyeah and @1000amabie for me to reblog.

My birthday’s Aug 19th and I had the idea of making a wishlist for my twitter followers of things they could draw for me (plus places where they could buy my stuff and donate to me). The list basically basically consists of 3 types of my persona, 2 OCs, and Amabie or any other yokai. Of course I needed to provide references for my personas and OCs so scraped up some drawings I had and put them together with notes. I had so much fun putting these ref sheets together that I wanted to share them here on Instagram. But first I needed to make them all square shapes so I could post them together. So I added patterns to fill the negative space and I got so into it that I forgot that the purpose of this post wasn’t to recreate the twitter wishlist thread, it was just to post the ref sheets I made cus I liked them so much. I worked so hard on this I thought I might pass out!
Well, so here’s a list of everything on the list
1. Standard Cattype (my usual cat girl persona)
2. Baké Cattype (my yokai persona that I use for my Jigoku Yeah twitter)
3. Beasty Cattype (a more cat than girl persona that’s just funny)
4.Toni the oni (my OC and mascot for my Jigoku Yeah Twitter/Tumblr)
5. Anise the dream eater girl (a new OC I posted here recently. She’s a baku who pretends to be a magical girl)
6. A collage of a few of my favorite yokai
7. Amabie (this design’s going on my cake)
8. Websites where you can buy me stuff and give me money
