ChieriBounce

I wasn't planning for this to turn into a whole Adventure Time episode so this was my intended final part. I gave the background colored lineart originally, but it didn't look good, so I just went with no lineart as usual. I left some on the background characters as a treat though.

..Get it? Treat?

Chieri, nervous and disguised as Princess Bubblegum, is hanging out with some "friends". Someone might be onto her...

I guess it IS for just one day, right?... ...RIGHT?...

PB played her for a fool!

Chieri crumbles under authority 🙃
I think we've seen that happen before already

Something feels off to me about this piece. I think I made the background too bring and pastel, but I wasn't sure how to fix that without just making everything darker. And I didn't want to make everything darker. So I hope this is fine.

Bubblegum is pushing Chieri (who looks and is dressed up like her) out the door.

Everyone could use a body double every now and then.

Some people say to just use an AI generated face, but I can guarantee those accounts are gonna get banned the moment Discord finds out, and I don't want to get caught with my pants off like that.

I guess this is as good a time as any... Does anyone know a decent Discord alternative that has similar private server/channel/friend functionality?

PB does seem to have some ideas!

I hope my design for Bubblegum is appealing, by the way. I try to keep her looking close to the original, but still add a little bit of my own touch and style. I feel like something is missing, design-wise or otherwise, but I haven't been able to pinpoint what feels off.

Let's not forget that despite all the possession shenanigans, Chieri is first and foremost a shapeshifter. If she can't possess them, she can just transform into them!

Bubblegum witnesses Chieri's abilities at work and has an idea.

This is getting out of hand. Now there are two of them!

Since Chieri has nothing to latch onto for control, she would have no control at all. At best she could be a passenger in Bubblegum's body.
Unless Bubblegum lets her slide in and wear her like a bodysuit... but I'm not sure she'd allow that.

For slimes, merging together is an act of trust and affection. While she cannot merge with "solid people", possession is the closest option to it.

Also, I think I drew Bubblegum too meek somehow, but I wasn't sure how to fix it...

I feel like maybe I rushed ahead a bit with this. Maybe I could have made a part where Chieri actually tries possessing PB. Not sure. Maybe I can go back and draw that after I'm done with the series, if there's interest in that.

Yep, we're doing this again. But I didn't want to be too predictable about this - just possessing Bubblegum would have been too obvious, AND go against canon! No, this is much more fitting. Don't worry, shenanigans will still ensue.

Princess Bubblegum is teaching Chieri about gum person anatomy.

Who's got two thumbs and no brain? This gal! ...Well, technically, both of them.

Will have to wait and see! If I get around to it...

We'll see

When I'm drawing a series, how much better is it to draw it all in one go, one after another? Is it okay to draw other stuff inbetween the parts?

I had an idea with Princess Bubblegum and Chieri. I'm not sure if I'll expand it into a series... It could be fun. We'll see if I have the time this weekend.

Hands are still hard to draw.

Princess Bubblegum is trying to figure out what this blue goop is. A new flavor?

"Bubblegum's Discovery" [1]
Analyzing and experimenting with this strange blue goop can only end well.

There's a story to be told, I just really need to find a good way to tell it...

Don't worry, they are two different characters! 😅

It's more like... Nine is what Chieri would be if everything that went right for her went wrong instead. She is the worst case scenario to Chieri's best case scenario. But they do coexist in the same story...

What emotion are you feeling from this drawing (if any)?

This is meant to be a sort of parallel piece to this one. After all, in a way they're related. I'm not sure if it's a different teddy bear, or the same one and Nine here is just that much bigger than Chieri.

Nine is holding a teddy bear.

"Nine's Plush Bear"
Does she remember? Or is it just oddly shaped?

I like the eyes

2, 5, 6 or 11

I want a window seat

Is it ironic that I wanted to draw something simple while I'm sick to preserve my energy, and ended up drawing the best, most believable slime I've drawn in a while? Maybe there's something to be learned from this...
