Meet the stars of Door2Door with four full renders of the Dine 'n Dash quartet!

#Door2Door #GigiDempster #GwenCaruso #CarlLuntz #MrHartley #Possum #Bunny #Monkey #Beagle #Furry #FurryOC #OCsky
A drawing of all four main characters of Door2Door, drawn in Medibang Paint Pro. The drawing contains stylized renders of the main four characters of Door2Door: Gigi Dempster, Gwen Caruso, Carl Luntz and Mr. Hartley. Gigi stands at a small stature and wears a bright green hat with a white brim, a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of her hat, and a dainty white apron tied around her waist. She also wears large, black circular-lensed glasses, a golden nametag, and black pants that extend down to her feet. Gigi's fur is mostly a warm grey, though her ears and arms fade into a darker fur pattern. Her small hands and jagged tail are the same shade of reddish-pink as her nose. Gwen stands tall and wears a bright green hat with a white brim, a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of their hat, and a dainty white apron tied around their waist, as well as a golden nametag and black pants that extend down to their feet. Gwen's fur is a shade of vanilla brown, and their nose and inner-ears are pinkish-brown. Their ears are incredibly long, and flow down well past their shoulders. From beneath their hat, a small, fluffy tuft of hair juts out just above their half-lidded eyes. Carl stands relatively small and wears a bright green hat with a white brim and a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of his hat. He also wears a golden nametag and black pants that extend down to his feet. Carl's fur is a muted brown, and his face and hands are a light tan shade. Features of note are Carl's long tail, even longer arms, large hands and short, stubby legs. With a notably portly figure, Mr. Hartley's fur color is primarily a pale taupe, though his muzzle and arms are a brighter eggshell white. His ears taper off into a dark black fur pattern. He wears a bright green hat with a white brim, a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of his hat, a golden nametag, and black pants that extend down to his feet.

Apologies for the lack of art lately— I've been a bit burnt out as of late, though I'm steadily getting back into the groove. I gave CSP a whirl, however, and drew this render of Gigi Dempster! 💚🤍💚

A render of Gigi Dempster, drawn in Clip Studio Paint. Gigi stands at a small stature and wears a bright green hat with a white brim, a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of her hat, and a dainty white apron tied around her waist. She also wears large, black circular-lensed glasses, a golden nametag, and black pants that extend down to her feet. Gigi's fur is mostly a warm grey, though her ears and arms fade into a darker fur pattern. Her small hands and jagged tail are the same shade of reddish-pink as her nose. Gigi is drawn in a rather whimsical jumping pose, gesturing with one outward hand and brandishing a peace sign with the other. Gigi's artwork has been rendered to resemble that of an animation cel; noticeable tells for this include an overall yellowed color, a harsh drop shadow and a grainy texture. The background is an orange checkerboard pattern, and just above Gigi's right foot is a signature reading '-JV!'.

This coming year, I'll be laser-focused on creating more content revolving around @giftboxworld.bsky.social and I's series Door2Door, and while this isn't my last work of 2024 (I'll post that eventually), this IS my last drawing of 2024!

#Door2Door #GigiDempster #Furry #FurryOC #FurryArt #OCsky
A drawing of Gigi Dempster, a possum, pointing outward with a wide smile. A wrapped sandwich with 'More2Come' written on its wrapper is directly to her right, with text reading 'In 2025!!!' written underneath it. A signature reading '-JV' is signed just under Gigi's arm.

My amazing sister used some conversion trickery to bring my Door2Door screencaps to her CRT! They look simply fantastic on an old TV, too— now it truly IS a nineties cartoon!

A screen-grab of a grainy VHS recording of an episode of Door2Door, drawn in Medibang Paint Pro, converted to and displayed on a CRT. The screen-grab itself features the opening title for the series. A large, greasy wrapped deli sandwich with ‘Door2Door’ printed onto its wrapper is featured underneath a harsh yellow spotlight. The text ‘Door2Door’ is written in green with the two written in red, and is outlined with a thin black outline as well as a black drop shadow. Behind the sandwich is a deep blue background contrasting with the bright yellow spotlight. Above the sandwich is curved handwritten text reading ‘Created by Julia Vandenburg’, my preferred name. Julia Vandenburg is underlined, and the ‘i’ in Julia is dotted with a small heart. In the screen-grab’s lower right-hand corner is a low-opacity watermark of the Cartoon Network logo, specifically from its late nineties and early 2000s era. A screen-grab of a grainy VHS recording of an episode of Door2Door, drawn in Medibang Paint Pro, converted to and displayed on a CRT. Mr. Hartley and Gigi Dempster are in the kitchen of Dine ‘n Dash, having just completed constructing the perfect sandwich. Mr. Hartley, pictured on the left is a tall though portly beagle whose fur color is primarily a pale taupe, though his muzzle and arms are a brighter eggshell white. His ears taper off into a dark black fur pattern. Like Gigi, he wears a bright green hat with a white brim, a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of his hat, and a golden nametag. Mr. Hartley, resting one hand on the counter, points upward with his other hand proudly. Gigi, stationed to Mr. Hartley’s right, is a short, female opossum who wears a bright green hat with a white brim, a green collared dress shirt matching the same color of her hat, and large, circular-lensed glasses. She is just barely taller than the counter she stands behind, and watches Mr. Hartley speak in awe, with bright, sparkly eyes. In front of the two is a sub sandwich, layered delicately with lettuce, tomatoes and meat on brioche buns on top of a wrapper. To the left of the sandwich is a large bread knife, and to the right of the sandwich are small compartments housing varying sandwich ingredients, such as lettuce and tomatoes. The two stand in a dark kitchen, just underneath a lone spotlight cast over them. In the screen-grab’s lower right-hand corner is a low-opacity watermark of the Cartoon Network logo, specifically from its late nineties and early 2000s era. A screen-grab of a grainy VHS recording of an episode of Door2Door, drawn in Medibang Paint Pro, converted to and displayed on a CRT. Ruby Ramirez, a delivery girl skunk who serves as Gigi's rival, looms over her in a full, panning POV shot revealing her entire design from head to toe. Ruby stands at a medium height with a compact body type, and wears a large, open black jacket with hot pink wrist cuffs and pockets. Under her jacket, she wears a dirty pink short-sleeved t-shirt as well as a pair of gunmetal navy jeans and regent grey sneakers. She also wears a crimson sports visor, relatively close to the same shade of pink as the cuffs of her jacket, and her right ear is pierced with a large, golden hoop earring. Ruby's fur is a deep shade of fuscous grey, and down her neck as well as her enormous tail are stripes of a lighter, mercury white fur color. Her hair, which swoops down over the side of her face, is the same white color, and she has a small pink nose, the same color as her inner ear. She stands in a relatively laid-back pose, with one of her arms held out and the other tucked into the pocket of her jacket with a sly grin. Behind Ruby is a small city block in Bendersville, primarily featuring a California Blue brick building with a large storefront window on its right, with text reading 'Stuff and Things, Things and Stuff' printed onto the glass. To the right of Stuff and Things is a dark coral red brick apartment building which looms tall into the saffron mango sky. In the distant skyline, several large buildings can be seen, and the sky is dotted with small clouds. Ruby stands on the road, casting a large shadow.

Julia Starinsky, a rat, seated on a stool in front of a Flip-Furter arcade cabinet, smiles down at an awestruck Gigi Dempster, an opossum. Julia, pictured on the right, is a plus-sized rat wearing a dull pink hoodie with crimson cuffs over a cream t-shirt. She also wears bluish-purple jeans, and has thin-lensed glasses. Her fur is a shade of desaturated brown, and her inner ears, tail, nose and hands are a bright pink. She sits on a red stool in front of a Flip-Furter arcade cabinet, which is mostly blue with an orange control panel. Gigi, pictured on the right, is a possum who stands at a small stature and is wearing a crimson orange hoodie with an orchid yellow hood. The hoodie's edges, specifically around the waist and at the ends of the sleeves, are also of the same color. She also wears dull turquoise jeans and red sneakers. Gigi's fur is mostly a warm grey, though her ears and arms fade into a darker fur pattern. Her small hands and jagged tail are the same shade of reddish-pink as her nose. On her face she wears large, black circular-lensed glasses, and she has a large, poofy tuft of hair jutting out just over them. The two interact in the arcade wing of Ricky Rhino's Chews, Brews & News, a Chuck E. Cheese expy. The walls are a bright blue with a jagged three-line stripe going across it, and the carpet is a deep purple. Behind Julia and Gigi are two arcade cabinets; the leftmost one is mostly obscured by Julia, though the rightmost one is intentionally visible and is called Zauber!, based around my sister's unicorn character. It has a blue, yellow and red color scheme. Further in the background is a hallway, with a visible door leading into the men's restroom. In the screen-grab’s upper right-hand corner is a low-opacity watermark reading 'STAR TV' inside a simplistic single-color drawing of a CRT television.

One night at the arcade, Gigi Dempster happens upon the mysterious 'JNS' high-score holder setting a new score on the Flip-Furter machine... why, it's sweet 'ol Julia Starinsky!

While I'm working on the next Door2Door cel, I thought it'd be fun to post some comparisons of two previous cels I've drawn, from layout to final shot!

#Door2Door #TheNyafia #GigiDempster #LuluKendler #Furry #FurryOC #FurryArt #Cats #Possum #Alpaca #Cartoon #90s #AnimationCel
A storyboard-style layout for a cel focused on The Nyafia. A screen-grab of a grainy VHS recording of an episode of Door2Door, drawn in Medibang Paint Pro. The Nyafia, a small-scale body of criminals made up of three mobster cats named Lock, Stock and Barrel, all loom fearsomely toward the camera. Lock (Left) and Barrel (Right) stand cross-armed behind Stock (Center), who reaches out with imposing grabby hands and a sinister smile. The Nyafia all wear matching outfits— tan pinstripe hats with black brims and dress shirts rolled up at the sleeves, as well as deep brown suspenders. Each member has a differently colored tie; blue for Lock, yellow for Stock, and red for Barrel. Lock is a rather tall and lithe American shorthair cat with grey fur, and her hat obscures her eyes. She wears a thoughtless grin on her face, with her tongue jutting out of her mouth slightly. Stock is a stout and rotund orange tabby cat with mostly white fur, though his ears and fingertips taper off into an orange fur color. He has an orange patch of fur circling his right eye, which also has a small scar just underneath it. Tucked into the brim of Stock's hat is a playing card; a red ace of spades. Stock's eyes glow intimidatingly amidst the dark, blue scene. Barrel stands small with a surprisingly well-built frame, arms crossed with a snide grin. His fur is dominantly orange, though he has crimson stripes on both sides of his face that are the same shade of color as the tips of his ears. The three stand in a dimly lit alley flanked by the sides of neighboring buildings. A storyboard-style layout for a cel focused on Gigi and Lulu. A screen-grab of a grainy VHS recording of an episode of Door2Door, drawn in Medibang Paint Pro. Gigi Dempster and her best friend Lulu Kendler stand inside the lobby of Avant Garde Video, a video store the pair frequent every Friday, in complete and total awe. Gigi, pictured on the left, is a possum who stands at a small stature and is wearing a crimson orange hoodie with an orchid yellow hood. The hoodie's edges, specifically around the waist and at the ends of the sleeves, are also of the same color. She also wears dull turquoise jeans and red sneakers. Gigi's fur is mostly a warm grey, though her ears and arms fade into a darker fur pattern. Her small hands and jagged tail are the same shade of reddish-pink as her nose. On her face she wears large, black circular-lensed glasses, and she has a large, poofy tuft of hair jutting out just over them. Lulu, pictured to the right, is an alpaca who stands at an incredibly stall stature thanks to her comically long neck. Lulu wears a dark navy short-sleeved shirt with a chardonnay thunderbolt symbol on its front, as well as light carmine pink jeans and goldenrod sneakers. A small pastel magenta bow is adorned just underneath her ear. Lulu's poofy, wooly fur is a merino white color, though her heart-shaped nose and hands take on a darker coriander shade. She has two poofy tufts of fur jutting out from both sides of her face, as well as a large tuft of hair jutting out above her forehead. The duo stand in the lobby of Avant Garde Video, a video store. Its walls are painted a shade of apache yellow, and boasts a shaggy venice blue carpet with a dark grey welcome mat just in front of the interior's entrance. Just behind Gigi and Lulu are two large glass windows as well as a pair of glass doors, allowing a glimpse at the dark blue city street just outside.
