Do you all ever wonder about whether other niche "fandoms" have the same quirks as the ones you're familiar with?

Like is there an #Arborist twitter? If I say these #wip #trees are loosely based on #AcerBuergerianum are some passionate #TreePeople gonna show up in my mentions?

More experimenting with trees.

Turns out there are very few resources for how to do so in pixel art and I basically have to invent technique as I go 😅

Some aspects of Elvia’s character made their way into Ronnie’s design, including running jokes about Y2K.

Ronnie was later aged up into her early 20’s and pushed a bit more trad goth, with her and Abby having an amateur darkwave act perpetually seaking a replacement keyboardist.
