Pastel goth Dante, as inspired by @notsoblackandwhite101's grid aesthetic Drawcember. I won't cover everything, but I thought I'd add my own little contributions to these.
god this has been in my drafts for like a year and a half, I started revisiting the series and I think I’m getting back into clipping stuff like this again
(101DS Drawing a Day challenge 1/18) Dante Dalmatian inks.
101 Dalmatian Street's 5th anniversary is this month, so as a surprise, starting today and until the 18th, I will try and have a drawing for the series posted each day as a way of contributing to the Save 101DS campaign. Now, I don't have a Twitter/X, and for a multitude of reasons, I don't plan on having one, but for anyone that uses Bluesky, I will be reposting my own art there (as a plus, they have just recently begun rolling out hashtags, so I'll make use of them any way I can):

101 Dalmatian Street x Cruella 2021 Twitter Trending Party Posters
(Poster 1 of 7)
I thought I'd bring back the nostalgia from a long while back and upload the first of the countdown posters made from the first 101 Dalmatian Street Twitter Trending Party I've ever hosted, to promote not only the show but also the release of last year's love-it-hate-it 101 Dalmatians film "Cruella"!
Man, I've really learned alot from promoting these trending parties. These countdown posters will always be part of my memory and also serves as the sole reason why I jumped in to support the show. I think my pet human may have nailed Cruella's creepy design from the show as well, dontcha' think?

The 2nd of the 7 countdown posters for the 1st 101DS Trending Party and the promotion of the "Cruella" film.
Okay. I'll admit that this is one of the posters that I am least proud of. The visuals and the green smoke are impressive, but for the Dolly drawing... Not so much.

This one takes a bit of inspiration from the pilot episode of 101 Dalmatian Street, hence why Dylan's head looks more slant. Cutekoopa wanted to go for different unique art-styles for each countdown poster, so for this one, he went for a more sketch comic style, as you can see with the pencil-like shading.

This is the one that recieved so much love from my pet human's mother! In fact, she has the pic as a wallpaper for her android device. How nice!
And what I didn't noticed until now that spots feel a little off here and there... My dog, is it THAT hard for my human to get each individual spot on each Dalmatian character right?

It's starting to get scarier with each countdown poster!! Goodness, Cruella is crazy enough to carry moths around, and poor Dawkins, Da Vinci and Diesel are caught in the crossfire!
Taken heavy inspiration from the moth dress scene from the film.

More spookiness!!
Still traumatized from the fur machine incident, poor Dizzy & Dee-Dee have been suffering from nightmares of this horrifying fur-obsessed she-devil!
Could someone come over and give those two a comforting hug and tell them everything is okay? Pretty please?
(Final countdown poster from the 101DS x Cruella trending party)
Here's the final one! And this time, Dante is the victim in this terrifying countdown poster. Betcha didn't predict Cruella consuming you alive, eh Dante?
FUN FACT: This one is one of my most favorites, as it takes heavy inspiration from a surreal RPG game, Yume Nikki. Cutekoopa wanted to replicate the similar visuals from the one area in the dreamworld where Madotsuki gets teleported to by Uboa.
