Day 22 Done! Meet My Take On Keralis: Robo-Keralis! When Looking At His Skin, There's No Interpretation

Day 30 done! I don't really watch Doc, but wow is his skin fun to draw! The extremely impractical glasses are my favorite part of this design, they look like they're about to fall off at any moment

Day 10 done! She many be a day late, but that doesn't stop her from being god's favorite princess. This is another drawing that I wish was in color, because the color pallet of Gem's season 10 skin is so pretty

Day 15 done! In honor of Sal the Salmon, I decided to give him salmon fins. I like to imagine Jevin made them himself and just sorta stuck them on (he definitely did the same thing with the eyebrows, though he'll swear those are natural.)

There was a scrapped design where he had a salmon skull floating in the slime, but salmon skulls look weirdly like bird skulls, especially in a tiny pencil drawing. Sadness.

Also, I've completely forgotten to add the charity link for previous days! There's a donation match in progress, so if you can give, now is the time!

For an alt hermit, I went with season 9 skulk possessed Cub! Figuring out the skulk texture was fun. Sadly, my camera is not a fan of how reflective the graphite is, so the picture looks a little off

Love the idea of weresheep zed (I have a similar idea in the most roundabout and weird way lmao)

Thanks! I wish I had a cool backstory for it, but really I just couldn't decide whether I wanted him to be a human or a sheep. I'm curious about your take on a weresheep! Roundabout and weird seems like a very fitting description for any version of Zed

I'm hoping to post some weresheep concept sketches along with all my other hermit-a-day practice designs at the end of May, if you want to keep an eye out for those

Day 3 complete! I'm trying to improve my face drawing skills by incorporating features from IRL hermits into their characters. It's not even close to perfect, but I think I'm learning a lot, and that's what matters!

Day 24 done! Behold...the Juppet

Day 29 done! My weird headcanon for Skizz is that he isn't actually an angel or a regular avian, but rather in a sort of grey area between the two. He's an albatross, which is a bird with a lot of legends and superstitions surrounding it. Albatrosses have mistakenly been associated with burdens and bad luck (like in "Rime of the Ancient Mariner") However, they only symbolize misfortune to people who mistreat them. They're actually symbols of perseverance and guidance, as well as healing and protecting lost souls. This means that Skizz counts as a supernatural being, but it isn't really noticeable. He's got a good sense of direction and is remarkably good at telling when someone needs guidance, but other than the giant wings, he seems normal

(Thanks to anyone who read that whole thing! I warned y'all I was a literature major, rambling about bird symbolism was inevitable)

Day 6 done! Despite being one of the first hermits I watched, I still don't have a proper design for Mumbo. Still not quite happy with his face shape, but I like how the hair turned out. Don't ask why he's got pointed ears, I have no headcanons and just thought they looked nice

Day 27 done! Today is everyone's favorite knight, who I imagine as having griffon features. Since griffons (griffins? gryphons?), as well as lions and eagles, show up in many coats of arms, I thought it would be fitting for a knight. Plus, the idea of Wels having wings and a tail was too cool not to draw.

As a bonus, have a Zedaph for day 26! I'm especially happy with my design for him. He's a weresheep: the bigger the moon, the more sheep features he gets!
