Kirbtober Day 29 : Treat

Just a little Morpho design I did a while ago ! I tried a more modern outfit for this one (yeah, I definitely want to wear that as an everyday outfit)

Dragon

Back on my portrait with jewels bullshit, can you believe I didn't have one of Kelis yet?

Kirbtober day 26 : Moon

It's tarot card day ! I made a list of wich kirby character should be associated with wich tarot arcana a while ago, and it's finaly time to use it. Meannings and interpretation of the card under the cut !

The arcana of the moon means dream, inconscious and illusions. I associated it with the dark matter species, with the idea of inners fears and darkness. It's not the most fitting card, but it's actually hard to find an arcana that's only negative in the tarot system. So, here it is, if you have others ideas, feel free to share !

Also, this card is usually connected with the second major arcana, the hight prietress. She is supposed to be the guardian of the secrets of the moon. In my kirby tarot interpretation, she is represented by the fairy queen... Who is precisely hiding the fact that she's possed by 02. (She has other connections with this arcana, but i think this post is long enough has it already is.).

Maybe I'll do the rest of the cards someday, but first, I'll finish the kirbtober !

Kirbtober day 25 : Epilogue

Ok, with this one I went straight up to "How many biblical symbolism can I put in a kirby drawing ?" and the answer is quite a lot. Meanings under the cut, if you're interested

Ok, so first of all, I a not christian, I made recherches for this drawing but I'm not a expert. Don't hesitate to correct me if I'm worng !

I went with the most known figure of a repentant sinner, Mary Magdalene. She is an ancient prostitute who latter became one of the most close friend of Jesus. She have a lot of attributes I couldn't put here without making it look strange (like long hair, a human skull or a ointment jar), but I managed to show some.

For exemple, it is said that Jesus made "7 devils" go out of her. Still, it's unclear if those devils are symbolising deaseses or sins. Anyway, that's the reason I put 7 frut fragments insted of the 5 you have to get in the game.

Also, her two main color are the red and the green. What is interesting with those is that they can represent vitality and rebirth (respectively), but in the same time they are associated with the devil.

The thorns represent sins, with the apples gems to reinforce this idea, and add some red.

The tower represent spiritual elevation, and is inspired by the architectural elements we can see in the hub of magolor epilogue. The color of the sky behind have the same signification. The bottom is dark, while the top is more blue, blue being the color of spiritual enleignmant. And also the purple and gold relief behind magolor is here to mimic an aureole. So he is litteraly rising from the darkness toward the light.

And lastly, during my reserches, I learned that the colors of wears associated with repentence are brown and grey. Yep, I didn't even had to change that. Coincidence ? Who knows ! Hal seems to love putting obscure meanings where you expect it the least

Kirbtober day 28 : Final boss

No matter what you're drawing, if it has a black background, it become instantly 10 time cooler. And I added some glitter too ! The real fight for me was to no put it everywhere in my room

Kirbtober day 13 : Spin-off

Okay, I have so many feeling about this game. First, it's the closest thing we have from a kirby RPG. I played it with my friends. And also I spent waaay to many hours grinding it. I almost 100% cleared it without spending money or cheating ! And then... I accidentaly corrupted my whole SD cartdrige. While drawing this. Errr, it was kinda hard to stay motivated after that !

(I found old backup of my 2ds, but I lost almost 10 hours of entering the game 2 minutes every 12 or 24 hours just to have some apple gems. So... In cheating we go !)

Fal's reference sheet is finally here!!!! It has a lot of text, I know, but Fal has a really heavy package of lore XD

Also, how his hands works

Kirbtober day 7 : Copy ability

Okay, I spent way too much time on this one, but it was really funny to make. All regular copy ability, and some final boss ones are in this picture, minus one. Can you find wich ? And also a shadow kirby because why not.

Kirbtober day 2 : Revenge

Perhaps not really original, but I like how the perspective turned out ! Always funny to make dynamic compositions with round blobs
