Might as well start posting on this account and not JUST my personal.
Anyway, some cute art I drew of me and my beloved @voidtaffy <3 The top pic was drawn the day I asked them out, the bottom was drawn a week or so before I asked haha.
give it up for vtuber model raffle winner #1, @therenobee ! an incredibly lucky roll as a long-time enjoyer of their work. based off @voidtaffy 's take on the design - an absolute treat to model!!!

Hi Bee! I love your character concept I was really curious how you came up with them?
I love robots and I love old tech! I think the overall feel of my new full design incorporates a lot of elements from MST3k and Hanna-Barbera. And I wanted to start from scratch with the new design since I never really had a full turnaround done with my own design sketch to work off of.
Having the head separate from the body is a trick HB animators used by adding collars to characters so they could use different cells for expressions and movement and being more animated and cartoony is something I leaned more into with the new face / head. I also think there is also something really fun with there being a robot who is mass produced but will have a different 'head' than other RENOs.
As for the body I drew up a concept a while back looking at different toy robot parts / old computers (magtape mainframes specifically).
And the clothes are pretty much directly inspired by the coveralls worm by Mike and Joel in MST3k with some Alien / Portal / Spaceship Breaker elements added. Below I'll post the sketch I made for the initial new design as well as the facial expressions I sketched over VOIDs turnaround they did for me.
I also have a number of 'inspo' galleries I sent to @voidtaffy for the turnaround I comm'd them, I'll post them here along with the sketch I made
Should also probably add some art i've done on here too.
This was some gift art I did for @voidtaffy for their stream anniversary and early birthday! If you haven't checked them out yet literally what are you doing, they are absolutely fantastic!!
