I don't know why I haven't introduced these characters here but did in other places lol
These are Alta (the cloud one) and Ubyoika (the cat one). These are more "main" original characters and they have existed for a while now. The first drawings of them were in 2021, but I did not show them outside of group chats and the like until this year. The designs have actually not changed that much since then, which I feel is a testament to how much I liked the characters. With the time between then and now, I've been able to develop them more and, even back then, they are some of the few characters that I've had any interest in developing past any single art post. Hopefully I will be able to have them in some sort of bigger project one day.
The refs included here were made for this year's Artfight.
