SPX ARTS FOR MEEEE

I GOT SO MANY ARTS AT SPX!  It was glorious.  And I received them in almost perfectly evenly intervals, allowing me to cherish each one for a while before receiving another.  It was like Christmas every couple hours! Let me share them with you, left to right, top to bottom:
  1. Danny and Amazi-Girl.  Do not have it written down who this is from!  If you are you, please let me know!
  2. Joyce by Magnolia Porter
  3. Joyce, Dorothy, and Carol Brown by Veronica Vera
  4. Walky and Dorothy with Monkey Master and Dexter, by Jen Aside.  She gave me the real version of the art posted earlier!
  5. Most Adorable Joyce in the World by Elle.
Seriously you guys I am so happy.

“Amber” by TerribleNerd

I realized there’s been a lull between Freshman Family Weekend character models, so let’s dip back into the fan art well for a bit, shall we?  AND C’MON, HOW CAN I NOT RUN THIS NOW???  It’s Amber/Amazi-Girl by TerribleNerd, and it’s like the best thing I’ve ever seen.  I probably said that same thing about her Sarah, but I really really mean it now.

The Snows

  Reno and Falyn Snow are Sierra’s adoptive parents.  They’re pretty cool and laid back, and that’s obviously imprinted on Sierra a bit.  It’s uncertain, however, where she got the barefoot thing from.  Maybe somewhere out there in the void, her biological mom is a flower child alwaysnude. These… may be the penultimate batch of character models of family members introduced during this storyline?  I know there’s at least one more to go from a character nobody’s ever seen before, but there may be some others who might’ve already have character art drawn.

The Walkertons

Charles and Linda Walkerton are the parents of Walky and Sal.  Linda was a pretty dang important character in the Old Universe’s It’s Walky!, sort of like how Gendo Ikari was important in Evangelion.  She’s only five years younger here than she was in It’s Walky!, but I think she’d look relatively younger than that because she’s not a former government field agent in charge of running a super-stressful anti-alien organization which hopes to, uh, cancel the apocalypse, which probably would age you like it would the Presidency.  So these are the younger, hipper Walkertons.   As before, Linda’s a few years older than her husband. Of course, the other major difference between them in Dumbing of Age and the Old Universe is that Linda and Charles actually raised Sal rather than hiding her across the country with a pair of foster parents.  Here they only sent her across the country to go to a boarding school.  Oh, Linda.  Your parenting ideas are weird and arcane.

The family nobody wanted to see.

It’s like a who’s who of Shortpacked!‘s least popular players.  On the left we’ve got Blaine O’Malley, Amber’s divorced and estranged father.  He hasn’t been around in Amber’s life much, for Reasons.  One of those reasons might involve Faz, on the right, a member of the family Blaine remarried into, but it’s not the most important one. Not a lot of redesigning going on here.  Blaine is the Old Universe’s Blaine, but with his temple grays replaced with lighter browns.  Faz is Faz with a t-shirt instead of his usual toy store uniform. Let’s see how they are in this universe.

The Siegals

Despite Ethan arguably being the main character of Shortpacked! for about eight years, we never saw much of his parents.  In fact, we only got one glimpse of his mom’s arm.  So I just kind of whole-hog made ’em up.  Here Saul and Naomi Siegal are, for the first-ish time!  And boy, do they have some weird ideas about homosexuality.  In the Old Continuity, I imagine they figured out Ethan was gay before he did, and had kind of resigned themselves to it by the time he told them he was gay long after college, but in Dumbing of Age, Ethan came out in high school and his parents are still young and stupid.
