again i will clean them up + select which expressions i actually want to include on the final sheets. i've been drawing a Lot of expressions and interactions of these two because a) i picture them both with a wide range of expression and b) their designs Also need to look right next to each other.
Two sketches of Monty and Charles interacting using lines from different songs.One sketch of Monty and Charles together saying into a phone receiver "Act as if you do when you don't."

still working on operation mincemeat character designs. these two require a lot of exploration from me because they're the most central characters + i have specific ideas of them and i want to convey that correctly = therefore they are the hardest for me to be satisfied drawing.
A page of expressions and one full body drawing of Monty.A page of expressions and one full body drawing of Charles.Two more expressions for Charles.Exploring different poses for Monty by interpreting the way different actresses of his deliver the line "It's fun!" in the opening number.

more operation mincemeat character designs. will redraw/clean these up and add more expressions as i continue to explore the characters and refine the proportions and style. i'm mostly happy with jean, i like hester but need to make sure i can draw her consistently, and i need to explore bevan more.
Sketches exploring a design for Jean, with a full body drawing and various expressions inspired by various character moments from the musical.Sketches exploring a design for Hester, with a full body drawing and two expressions. One references the line "Bill has two 'L's." The other references the exchange "That is a lot of complicated stamps" / "Isn't it just?"Sketches exploring a design for Bevan, with a full body drawing and two expressions. One is a face exploration with notes about differentiating him from Monty. The other features the line "You've made a stupid mistake."

horrible butch and pathetic twink make an oc to impress their boss. and also it's wwii. (designing characters from the musical "operation mincemeat" in some kind of cartoon style)
Drawings of Charles and Monty in a cartoonish style, featuring the "Charles, please stop dry heaving!" and the scene where Monty tells Charles "Sorry about the 'father' thing. Bit weird," before saying to him, not 15 minutes later, "Father's never been more proud!" Sketches of various Monty expressions and the line "He's gonna have to bend over and sit on--Johnnyyyyyyyyy!"Various Charles expressions.

my friend showed me a musical and it made me draw roseginger again #hathm
Ginger asks, looking befuddled and concerned, "THAT'S the moral?" Rosemary spreads her arms cheerfully and declares "YES IT IS!"!Ginger, dubious, asks "So as long as you're in charge, you can do whatever you like forever?" Rosemary lets out a satisfied "Ahhhhhh!"

Hi, #PortfolioDay! I'm Amaranth Morn, a fantasy illustrator who likes fairy tales and horror. Currently open to commissions and illustration work. Work: amaranthmorn.neocities.org/portfolio Contact: amaranthmorn@gmail.com Commissions: vgen.co/amaranthmorn #FantasyArt #OCsky #ArtSky
A digital illustration of my Snow Queen fairy tale retelling characters. Neve, a blue-skinned, white-haired woman with mist pouring from her icy body, looks into a snow globe lit from within by golden light. In the snow globe, teenage best friends Kain and Glory engage in a snowball fight. A crack runs through the globe, visually cutting through Kain's figure.A digital illustration styled like a book cover. The title is "Spirit-Sight," and the author's name is the artist's. A very young teen, peering wide-eyed into the darkness, brandishes a lantern glowing with unnatural light. The smoke billowing from the lantern takes the shape of various strange creature parts. A digital illustration of a girl with a haunted expression kneeling beneath a gnarled juniper tree. She holds a feather that glows like fire. In the earth beneath her is a skeleton. Fire lights from its eye sockets. Above the skull and above the earth, a bird's long, flame-colored tail feathers hang down from the juniper tree. The bird itself looks down toward the girl. In the distance, a small house sits, smoke rising from its chimney and blending with the stormy sky.Two digital illustrations of my characters Glory and Kain as adults, teenagers, and children.

Attack of Absolutely-Anura's character Minerva! Trying to figure out a balance between emphasizing environmental color and making the image not as neon as I have been doing... I think I'm getting there? I don't know, but I like how this turned out. #Artfight #Artfight2026 #TeamMystery

working on designs for characters from 30 years before the story of #SQRetelling ... they should feel familiar but not precisely the same as the main characters.

stupid joke and it took so long #SQRetelling

Amaranth Morn @amaranthmorn.neocities.org · 11/04/2026
colored the second one to experiment more with colors and designs. had an idea that her pupil shape could be hourglasses. i like the collar decoration to add red but i feel i could make it More red. there needs to be a little more red on her top half to balance the red tights, i think #SQRetelling
A colored sketch of my character Rook.
