Hey Crew!

Happy Wednesday everyone! Welcome to the first day of Side Project Wednesday! Most of the time these projects are going to be broken up into parts, because I’ll be using my free time to work on them. Are you ready to rock?

(Left) Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius / (Right) Aries, Taurus, Gemini

So here is the last of the Zodiacs. If you want to know more about the meaning behind symbols and style read the first post here.

What do you guys think? I had so much fun with these! I am really proud of how they look and how they match with the actual Tokidoki Unicornos. I enjoyed how this project pushed me to be very vector based and simple. I know that is a struggle for me. I have like this internal conflict about if I have enough detail or if things need shadow or more lines, and on the flip side I think less is more. The struggle is real.

Don’t forget to check out my IG Friday for a double picture of #BlackoutFridays. Saturday the next Sign is going to be released. Do you know which one is next? Sunday there is going to be an announcement about Sunday Comic Day! Things are moving forward. See you soon! Remember to stay safe and stay sane!

Until next time,

Hey Crew!

Welcome back! How are you guys doing? How are you guys liking the Zodiac Series? I am having a lot of fun with them. We are 4 down and 8 more to go! October is going to be here faster than we think. I am definitely ready for Autumn.

Anyways, I want to share with you guys a side project I have been working on. A couple of months ago I posted a DYI Unicorno that I painted on Instagram. I also thought about doing the whole Zodiac as Unicornos. Can you see where this is going?

(Left) Cancer, Leo, Virgo / (Right) Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces

I am using this project to get better with Adobe Illustrator. I wanted to make them all be uniform. Each Sign has their own color palette. The little blushes are colored after each Sign’s main birthstone. The little charms in the mane are the Signs’ symbols. I also added each one’s ruling planet as the little birthmark on the rear end. I added the constellations on each of the Sign’s wings. The triangles you see are symbols their elements.

What do you guys think? I am loving how they are coming out. I low key want to get more of the DIY Unicornos to make mock ups of all of them. Someday.

I want to state that I am not working with Tokidoki. This is basically fan-art and a learning project.

Please go support their business. I love the Unicornos, personally. Actually, some would call it an obsession. 🤣 I am just an avid collector of cute things. https://www.tokidoki.it/

Don’t worry, I’ll be posting the last 6 of the Signs soon. I’ve got to keep you guys coming back for more. 😊

I hope you guys all enjoy the rest of your day. Remember to stay safe and to stay sane.

Until next time,

Suzanna 🌙
