“UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” “The Lorax”, by Dr. Seuss
I’ve been going through some sort of weird internal transformation this year. This hommage piece is definitely a hint as to what has been eating at me.
Seriously, this cat is turning more and more alien the more I work with them as a “conceptual” messenger…
Onceler AU where after his thneed business fails and his interdimensional fame dies out he gets a job as a butcher / concessions stand attendee at the galaxy’s most eccentric mentalward-mall combo shop.
He works there with a sentient cardboard cut out of Bernie Sanders, which he’s had a few flings with but can’t get emotionally attached to, and lives in the attic/meatlocker with not much to his name except his hatchet and some drug paraphernalia. He’s a little paranoid, both from the drugs and PTSD from his fans, as well as having an undiagnosed dissociative disorder.
He stuttered when introducing himself, not having planned a fake name properly before he was asked, which then landed him the name ‘Oncell’ (once-el). The owner spelled it on his name tag as 1NCL.
I came across screenshots of Aurora (from Sleeping Beauty) and thought it would be fun to redraw them with her. I also tried to come up with a cool dress for her here ( although in my personal headcanon, she would wear trousers) and a hair bun one here for a reason, and it makes its own sense
Oh Hey, I realized that I didn’t really draw full art with him. Here as like two options color of ( + a cool glow in the eyes (ಥ‿ಥ), first sketch and a page with other sketches (once-ler, fem once-ler , fem ted and male audrey with original audrey lol idk what’s going on with my imagination ) in complete with barbaloot. I didn’t want their post separately, so’ll pin this to art. I feel really fine to draw these guys, so i guess, in the near future, they will appear here more
And here’s the most recent thing, fresh outta the oven! Went to town once again on some of Miru’s funky fine once-ler sketches (click the link and Behold Them, Fools) because my constant mood is always “too tired to sketch and hungry for inking”
