Hello everyone and Happy Holidays to you all! This will be my last piece of art I upload for the year as a way to round it out and leave you all with a piece of art of mine! Though I haven’t been the most active due to college, I want to thank you all for the support I’ve received nonetheless!

Holy fuck, hi everyone. I know I’ve been quiet for some time, but I’ve been very busy with college and my own mental health for a while now. I’ve got some stuff I’ve been working on for a while, but I’m not ready to post just yet.
Thank you all for following and keeping up with me, even when I’ve been quiet and busy. I won’t say this is a proper return, especially since I’m still busy with college, but rather I’d say this is more of a check in to show I’m still around.

If you read this, thank you for letting me ramble for a bit <3

I’m not one to post work in progresses much anymore, if I can help it, but I'm trying out some graphic design work for fun and wanted to show this off! This style is inspired by the Windows Vista buttons, or more commonly thought of as "Frutiger Aero" or Skeuomorphism styled.

Welcome back to a new post for my “Meet the Cast” series, today I’m re-introducing you all to my main villain of Angel’s Destiny, Isaac! (He/Him)
Pictured here is an image of my original character, Isaac. Next to him there is text that reads as follows:

“This is no ordinary demon, once a wolf, Isaac is now a demon Who is hellbent on achiving his master plan and proving himself to everyone. Isaac is not one to be messed with, as he is cunning and powerful. His main rival, Maddie, is the only one who stands in his way, and he’s always scheming to take her down for good. He wishes it didn’t have to be this way, but he can’t let her, or any of her friends stand in his way. Isaac is cold, and sometimes callous, but this is due to his goals,
and the one who influences him to pursue them.”

“Isaac comes off as someone who is nothing but evil, but his Weakness lies in his true nature. When he pushes himself too far, he begins to doubt himself, letting his true nature show, no influence to mask it. He wants to be caring, giving his group a home and jobs, but his kindness is overshadowed by his fear and jealousy, which allowes the influence to corrupt him further.”

While I’ve been, and remain, hard at work for making content, I shall (re)introduce you all to another character! Welcome back to my “Meet the Cast” series, next up in the Angel’s Destiny series we have the mysterious lady herself, Luna! (She/Her)
Pictured here is an image of my original character, Luna. Next to her there is text that reads as follows:

“This woman is a mystery, no one knows where she came from or why she is here, all we know was that she was traveling under the moonlight with what appeared to be a child, later known as Lucy. Luna prefers the night, finding peace and clarity from it. She is reserved and often keeps to herself, only enjoying company from Maddie and Lucy, and having to tolerate Glitch and their...bold, personality. Luna is no foe, but rather someone who wishes for peace and quiet, but, she takes interest in one person other than those mentioned before.”

“Despite this, she hides many secrets, and often keeps to herself and the many books she surrounds herself with. One of her secrets, though, can lead to her downfall if she isn’t careful. She cares deeply for those who she surrounds herself with, which can cause great harm. Despite this, she learns quite a bit about the world, and secrets that will benefit her, and many others.”

Hi there, I’m Gabe! I’m currently a college student who has been creating artwork for over 10 years now! I have a bunch of styles I like to work in, and many stories I like to tell with my artwork! Thank you Neon for the opportunity for people to share their works!

Moving along in my “Meet the Cast” series, next up in the Angel’s Destiny series we have the lovable little Lucy! (She/Her)
Pictured here is an image of my original character, Lucy. Next to her there is text that reads as follows:

“Lucy’s past is a mystery, one day she arrived to Maddie and Glitch’s residence, alongside Luna. Upon taking a look at Maddie, she assumed the form she takes now, not knowing how it happened or how to change again. Lucy is no fighter, just a kid, but with the help of Jessica she’s learning how to be support when conflict arises. Unlike Glitch, Lucy is incredibly friendly and caring towards people.”

“Lucy is just a kid though, so she’s often left out of conflict so that she doesn’t get hurt, despite the fact she always wants to help. This later on gets her into trouble when she tries to sneak out to help, or when she begins to learn magic behind everyone’s back. Despite this though, she is quite curious and smarter than she looks, helping Oliver and Luna unlock mysteries that will benefit everyone.”

Welcome back to “Meet the Cast!” We’re moving right along and continuing with the characters from Angel’s Destiny! This next character is Glitch! (She/They)
Pictured here is an image of my original character, Glitch. Next to her there is text that reads as follows:

“A demon who was supposed to suffer for the rest of their life, Glitch wound up getting stuck with Maddie. Everyday she is thankful for this, and is almost always by Maddie’s side, helping her with her mission.
Glitch is a powerful demon and a master with her craft in the way of fire. It’s hard for Glitch to warm up to people, but when she does, she’s a great ally.

With her past, she can be emotionless, or very emotinal. They sometimes seek fights for adrenaline but when forced to fight, she doesn’t hold back.
These traits have gotten her into trouble before, but she’s learning how to deal with these problems as they grow. This eventually leads her to reach a potential that was never thought possible before.”

Starting a new series: “Meet the Cast!” It’s quite self explanatory, but basically I will be drawing my characters and a bit of their story so that you, the audience, get to meet my characters! I’m starting with my main series, Angel’s Destiny! And here to start off this, this is Maddie! (She/Her)
Pictured here is an image of my original character, Maddie. Next to her is a brief summary of her and a small bit of her story. Pictures too is her name and her pronouns (She/Her)
Above her left (our right) hand is the symbol often seen in artwork that is made for Angel’s Destiny, the story she comes from.

(The description here is from image above for those who find it hard to read the text):

This is no ordinary angel, once a wolf, Maddie is now an angel Who is trying to stop the world from falling into chaos. Don’t let her fluff and her kind nature fool you though, she’s way stronger than she may appear. With her main rival, Isaac, and other strong foes always around the corner, she is often on her toes, even if she wishes that she didn’t have to fight.
She’s an incredibly kind soul, almost always having a warm smile on her face, and some of her friends she met by saving them and offering them a home.
With her role however, she often pushes herself so that she can protect the ones she loves and cares about. Sometimes, her kindness and her want to not fight being used against her.
She’s lost a lot in her lives, but she’s determined to not lose anyone else, even if it means pushing herself to her limits, unlocking new abilities, and doing what seems impossible.

Genuine question that’s going to require context and may be a bit of a small thread So a long time ago before, I wanted to make Angel’s Destiny an animated show. (I still do lol) But something bothering me looking back at it? Why did it try to start at meeting Dusty?

I don’t know if I’m ever gonna finish this piece, especially since it’s a very emotionally driven piece But here I am, presenting it unfinished. It’s okay to give up on a project or not finish it, but sometimes, don’t be afraid to show off unfinished works.

Individual panels
The image shows a younger version of me (the figure on the right in all panels) and my original character Maddie (the figure on the left in all panels). In the top right corner it states “circa 2015.” Younger me says the following “Wow! My first OC AND friend!” Maddie was the first oc I created, and as a kid, I saw her as my friend.The image is depicting the current day me and Maddie as we both are tearing up with joy. In the top right corner it states “Present, 2025.” I say “Thanks for sticking with me for all these years, my friend.” Maddie then follows up by saying “Thank you, for not dying on me, old friend.” We then both say “Cheers to many more years, together.” On Maddie’s side side states it’s her 10th anniversary and Birthday, and on my side it states “21st birthday today.”

This shows that after all this time, we still see each other as friends, mainly me seeing my OC as my friend.This panel shows what’s supposed to be a photograph of the two of us, stating “10 years together! B-Day buddies” Signed by Maddie and myself in the top right corner. The both of us are teared up with joy.

“10 Years” A birthday comic I made that’s dedicated to Maddie and myself. Maddie’s been around for 10 years now, and it’s both of our birthdays today :)
This image depicts the 3 panel comic in full.

The first image is of a younger version of me (the figure on the right in all panels) and my original character Maddie (the figure on the left in all panels). In the top right corner it states “circa 2015.” Younger me says the following “Wow! My first OC AND friend!” Maddie was the first oc I created, and as a kid, I saw her as my friend.

The second image is of current day me and Maddie as we both are tearing up with joy. In the top right corner it states “Present, 2025.” I say “Thanks for sticking with me for all these years, my friend.” Maddie then follows up by saying “Thank you, for not dying on me, old friend.” We then both say “Cheers to many more years, together.” On Maddie’s side side states it’s her 10th anniversary and Birthday, and on my side it states “21st birthday today.”

The final panel shows what’s supposed to be a photograph of the two of us, stating “10 years together! B-Day buddies” Signed by Maddie and myself. The both of us are teared up with joy.

How would you all feel if I started live-streaming at some point? They would be art related streams, sometimes they might be for college work, sometimes might be personal works like comics or stuff, maybe merch ideas sometimes. Would anyone be interested in that?

“Is That…You?” Mini comic for Old Friends (A story of mine ;) )
This page features two characters, Maddie and Rin. In the first pannel, Maddie is looking at someone off screen, with a shocked expression. 
In the second pannel, Rin is doing the same.

In the third pannel, Maddie and Rin face each other, but it’s in the outfits (and world) they last saw each other in, something that is far in the past.This page is one pannel, Maddie and Rin stand closer to each other than in the last pannel, but the world more decrepit, and the two staring at each other in their current designs. 
They are in the present.
Maddie and Rin, both crying, are shocked to be seeing each other again after so long.
