clock strikes upon the hour and the sun begins to fade . . .

‘I wanna dance with somebody’ but it’s the last thing you hear before stepping into a faery ring

another character from my enlightenment era fantasy because being a girlboss who works in publishing is too hard in 2k23

#historical fantasy #enlightenment witches #enlightenment era costume #eighteenth century #original character #excuse me ma'am these are my emotional support ocs #sorry for posting art for myself only but I am as always Going Through It #the good news is that it’s been over a year since I passed my driving test #so hopefully soon the creative block spiral will Go Away and I’ll be able to write again #good news for me but not for this already mostly abandoned blog #this is the part of the tags where I tell you about the character and why I drew them #but I don’t feel like it so just guess ig #blog organisation tags #oc: cece

#Ohhh besties we went through it with this one #daphne and velma made sense to my brain and I knew what I was gonna do with their outfits #fred gave me a hard time because I actually enjoy him a lot but of everyone his characterisation is the most all of the place #i spent ages unable to get ‘cowboy hat’ out of my system due to #the canon cowboy costumes and also willard from footloose #my brain got really hung up on footloose (1984) and the himbo anthem that is ‘’let’s hear it for the boy’ #and how disgusting it is they rebooted the film and didn’t let Ren and Willard kiss #so you’re lucky to even be getting Fred at all actually #what’s the right level of ‘goofy himbo’ ‘booby trap enthusiast’ and ‘leader of the gang’ energy to try and marry all his characterisations? #anyway let me know when you find out my brain just went BOWLING ALLEY EMPLOYEE #bowling balls are always used in booby traps and the goofy retro fashion makes an ideal shoutout to his OG outfit #these are my reasons and I’m sticking to them i guess lol #fred jones #fred scooby doo #scooby doo redesign #scooby doo gang #scooby gang #my art #digital art
