Pop Fan Artist Spotlights

Pop Fan Artist Spotlight: ArtisticAsianBunny

Hello, everyone!

It’s Lucky Joker popping in to showcase the art of another Poptropica fan artist in another Pop Fan Artist Spotlight. The featured artist this week is ArtisticAsianBunny!

ArtisticAsianBunny (AAB) draws in a simple yet super adorable style that is quite unique and distinctive to her work. Time and time again, you’ll see the Poptropica villains in most of her pieces. The funny thing is, they don’t appear scary or callous. On the contrary, they look quite huggable.

Seriously, check out this collection of her kawaii art below (and click the images for a better view):

CUTENESS OVERLOAD (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

Lastly, AAB shared with me how she came up with her recognizable art style and also gave me insight on how other artists can find their own. Here it is:

When I first started off getting into this community as an fan artist, the first thing I do is learn how to draw a poptropican. So, I decided to go to the PHB blog and found the “How to draw a Poptropican” page. My first try at drawing them was… decent, at least. At time go on, I looked at art from some admirable people like DeeJay-Rosiettahappyclonetrooper, and lots more and took some of their recognizable art style features to put into my own.

Experiment with the current art style you have. If you have someone you admire with their art style, take the things you like about it and add it onto yours. It doesn’t have to be just one artist however, you can do this to multiple artists as well!

Your art style is like a jigsaw puzzle, You put small puzzle pieces together to another one until you have the big picture. Of course it will take time to complete it, but once you are finished… it will all be worth it.

Well, that concludes this artist spotlight! I hope you enjoyed this look into a Poptropica fan’s artwork. Perhaps you’re even inspired to make Poptropica fan art yourself. If you’ve created some of your own, we’d love for you to share it on our DeviantArt group gallery at We-Love-Poptropica!

Don’t forget to check out the other artists I’ve featured here on the PHB, as well.

Pop Fan Artist Spotlight: DeeJay-Rosietta

Hello, everyone!

It’s Lucky Joker here with a Pop Fan Artist Spotlight, and today, I’m thrilled to showcase the art of none other than the amazingly talented DeeJay-Rosietta! DeeJay draws in a celestial Poptropica-esque style that is truly otherworldly. Most of her art consists of original Pop characters and gifts, but also non-Poptropica related stuff too.

Check out this collection of her sensational artwork below:

See what I’m talking about?

If you’re wanting to see more, check out her DeviantArt gallerythere’s a lot more art like the fantastic pieces you just saw! Also, she is open to doing commissions is anyone if curious.

To wrap up this spotlight, DeeJay has left a message for her loyal and new supporters alike:

Thank you all for your support and encouragement. It means a lot when I see all the positive comments about how most of you guys enjoy viewing my artwork. I really appreciate it! I’ll try to draw more gifts and such for my friends and supporters so uh… stay tuned? :sweat_smile:

I hope you found this look into a Poptropica fan’s artwork enjoyable! Perhaps you’re even encouraged to make Poptropica fan art yourself. If you have, we’d love for you to share it on our DeviantArt group gallery at We-Love-Poptropica. Also, don’t forget to check out the other artists I’ve featured here on the PHB!

Poptropica Portfolio

Poptropica Portfolio: Jonathan Pitcher

Hello, Poptropicans—it’s time to feature another Poptropica Portfolio!

This time around, we’ll be looking into the works of Jonathan Pitcher, who’s been working for StoryArc Media as an art director for over eight years. The work I’ll be highlighting here is a collection of his artwork for Poptropica from his Behance page, which also includes his non-Poptropica work.

Here are a couple of costume designs for the advertisement games on Poptropica which includes the Tigress costume from Kung Fu Panda and a few of the Zootopia characters, which are brilliant in my opinion. (Click on the images to enlarge them.)

Also, here is the elaborate apparatus of Steamworks Island which includes the multi-tool (two different versions shown here at the bottom left side), Sully’s key, the robot crab, and more! Check it out:

Steamworks

Lastly, here are some characters Pitcher has illustrated for Worlds that are recognizable from all of the islands released so far. Also, there’s this cool character low poly for Mya, and a red ugly/cute Dragon Follower from Pop Original. Awesome stuff!

Those of you who’ve played Survival Island: Episode 4 might also appreciate this item now that you know who probably inspired it…

Pop Fan Artist Spotlights

Pop Fan Artist Spotlight: MissEligon

Hello, everyone!

It’s Lucky Joker here, showcasing the wonderful works of MissEligon in another Pop Fan Artist Spotlight. MissEligon has won two art-related Poppies Awards with her “Danganronpa the Island” fan fiction (winner of the Poppies’ Best Fan Fiction in 2017) and her traditional visual piece, “Explore, Collect, Complete” (winner of the Poppies’ Best Fan Art in 2016). She’s gotta be a great artist, right? You bet!

Check out this collection of some of her work below (click to enlarge images):

Incredible, wouldn’t you agree?

Eligon credits her significant other, Criaha (another fantastic artist in the community!), for helping her with the anatomy in her drawings.

Here are a couple of tips for improvement with anatomy, as well as not letting people ruin your fun, from MissEligon herself:

If you ever want to create a character who has pink hair, is dating a canon character, is a child of a canon character, or other characteristics that makes people call them “Mary-sues” [i.e. generic], ignore those people—you’re only having fun with your ships or headcanons.

Also, if you want to improve your art, try searching up some anatomy tutorials and take inspirations from the many sources you love. The entire point is to keep on having fun and not let people ruin your fun.

Interested in seeing more of her art? Check out her DeviantArt gallery, and prepare to be amazed! She has lots of canon art, but also a ton of her fan villains which are ridiculously cool.

In previous Pop Fan Artist Spotlights, I’ve featured the awesome art of BlazingAngel123, treesareredinautumn, and ANNE14TCO—be sure to check theirs out, too.

I hope you enjoyed this look into a Poptropica fan’s artwork! Perhaps you’re even encouraged to make Poptropica fan art yourself.  If you’ve created some of your own, we’d love for you to share it on our DeviantArt group gallery, We-Love-Poptropica.

Pop Fan Artist Spotlight: ANNE14TCO

Hello, everyone!

It’s Lucky Joker here with another Pop Fan Artist Spotlight! Previously, I showcased the amazing art of BlazingAngel123 and treesareredinautumn. The featured artist this time around is ANNE14TCO, or more simply known as Anne.

Anne predominantly creates digital art of her OCs but also writes about them in her “The Chosen Ones” fan fiction and does animation.

Anne is known for using many cool special effects in her art which, in my opinion, adds a magical quality to her already phenomenal illustrations. It really makes you feel like you could dive right into her drawings, which I love!

Check out this collection of some of her visual art below:

Anne says she may pursue a career in any field in the arts whether that be a songwriter or a movie animator. I know she’ll do a wonderful job with whatever she decides to do. 😉

If anyone’s curious to know which software programs Anne uses to create her stunning masterpieces, she mostly uses Paint Tool Sai but also uses MediBang, FireAlpaca, Microsoft Paint, Photoshop, and Adobe Flash/Animate.

Anyway, I strongly encourage you to check out her DeviantArt gallery to see more of her work! It’s truly pleasing to the eye.

And that concludes this artist spotlight! I hope you enjoyed this look into a Poptropica fan’s artwork. Perhaps you’re even encouraged to make your own Poptropica fan art. If you’ve created some of your own, we’d love for you to share it on our DeviantArt group gallery at We-Love-Poptropica.
