@kurumilover.bsky.social this is wonderful!💙Little known fact, but I *was* in the OG cast of #Pokemon! I played Kay, the Raichu Trainer, who enlisted #Pikachu for help with her Raichu as they were having trainer/Pokemon issues due to spontaneous electrical shocks! (I mean, what did Kay expect?!) ⚡💙
Gift art I made for voice actress Jessica Calvello of her character Kay from OG Pokémon. Tried my hardest to emulate the Pokémon anime style for this one, and it was a lot of fun!

I’m alive!! Sorry for ghosting again. I need to get those art raffle pieces for here done soon, oof.
In the meantime, here’s a rendition of what Cutie Honey would’ve looked like in the ‘80s based off the pitch for an Honey OVA in that era.

I got it today finally!! My last most sought-after pachinko: “Urusei Yatsura: Dengeki Love Attack”
This also marks machine number 29 in my collection, yikes.

I’ve started to become extremely impatient waiting on the Dirty Pair bluray box like I haven’t had the Japanese deluxe bd box set for years, but man!!
Anywho, here’s the first illustration I’d ever drawn of the 80’s rendition of the Lovely Angels a few years back.

If you see this, post purple art!
Jessie and Arbok from Pokémon.
Miss you, Team Rocket.

I was glad I could squeeze more of my art in with me since I did the art in that chibi Frieren standee as well.

“With a taste of your lips, I’m on a ride. You’re toxic—I’m slipping under.”
Some fan art of Britney Spears in that super rad flight attendant outfit from the “Toxic” MV.

“Young Beauty Flower Angel” begins airing July on TV Tokyo!

Just kidding. I’ve been obsessed with these bootleg Sailor Moon toys for years and had always wanted to draw them lol. Pretending this is key art for a made-up show. Hope ya like!
