Happy Pride Month, everyone! Have a sneak peek at this week's update, just a small part of three-part drawing. By the way, kissing is hard to draw, did you know that? 😅

I want that for me... I need it for me!!

I've been trying my best lately, but it seems like my drawings don't get much attention on here and pixiv compared to how they used to. Is the format less engaging now? Are people tired of my characters? If you have any suggestions or constructive criticism I'd love to read it. 😊

On my Pillowfort (www.pillowfort.social/tanjent) artist's commentary I shared this fun little behind-the-scenes of a drawing from last year. Keeping Mel and Ana in frame while looking in the car from the outside is a tough task, so as reference I built a shabby little car out of 3D boxes!

Melody begins to piece things together. She has seen that woman before after all... And if Winona is suffering from the same curse, does she have any insight? Another confrontation seems inevitable. This is Story Update 9! I decided to freshen up the look with a new font. What do you think?

This is the Magenta Creek Character Files thread! It's an easy place to learn a bit about many of the recurring characters across the story and artworks. Over time, more bios will be added to this thread. Starting off, of course, with file #01: Melody Danse Fortis, the cursed mayoral candidate.

"You're right, the view up here is something else."

I bet they're worried that Melody will charm all the competition. Dumb joke aside, the constant ridiculous backwards hostile slide for trans people everywhere is a big reason that I feel I need to keep drawing Melody. I want her to be happy, and I want people to be happy when they see her.

Spent some time today trying to finally improve hair. I'm not satisfied yet but this feels on the right track... My hair drawing is not that detailed so the lighting and shading need to be simple to match. Anyway, look forward to another update with these two in a few hours. Really happy with it!!

Happy birthday Melody!! It's been three years since I began drawing her! Whether keeping clean or causing a mess, thanks for following along with me. ...Though I don't think Ana's going to pick the mess up this time.

They danced the night away! Despite her exhaustion from such a long night, Mel had trouble sleeping. Just who was that...? This was by far the most ambitious story update yet, taking 8 weeks to conclude!! I hope you all enjoyed an extended sequence like this. I had fun making it!

Oh yeah, I'm still slowly catching up with my artist's commentary over on www.pillowfort.social/tanjent You'll find works featuring Melody from the very start, including some behind-the-scenes thoughts, what I liked or disliked, maybe what I'm thinking about when making something. Check it out!

Life has been so crazy for Melody since getting cursed that even something like this hardly fazes her. Banking on that possibility, the mystery woman puts her bold plan into motion.

She must take matters into her own hands.
