ITBMW Tarot Cards

vivimoki — 2021-08-08 03:01:25 UTC

Hey Ali!! Hope things have been going well for you post surgery! <3 Just want to say thank you again (and Kat of course) for creating such an amazing story. I have probably mentioned this a gazillion times but you guys are the reason why I picked up art this year! I've been trying for a few years but it's been quite difficult finding that creative passion again. But reading your story, I find myself inspired by the characters, the beautiful artwork, the dialogue - everything really. Who knew that picking up a sci-fi webtoon one day (a genre I normally don't read) would have changed my life completely! Anyways, I created a series of tarot cards that frame the realism portraits that I had worked on. I hope you like them!! Looking forward to S2! (:

Hi Ali! Congratulations on your surgery going smoothly, and I hope recovery goes well too! Thank you for the wonderful work you and Kat have done bringing In the Bleak Midwinter; to life as well as fostering such a wonderful community of kind and creative people. It's all thanks to you and everyone who has been brought together by your story that has inspired me to pick up drawing again and made it feel purposeful. I look up to you very much both for your skills as an artist and as a person for overcoming so many hardships <3 Stay strong and healthy because that's always the most important thing of all!

Hey Ali! You're super cool, I still somehow think you're my French clone, and I hope your recovery is going well! That's...a very weird sentence to put together, but you're such an incredible artist and person and it's been a pleasure getting to know you and bring your work to life! You've gone through a lot, and you deserve every one of these presents and more! Kick back, relax, enjoy the rest, and vibe to this anime OP I've been trying to cover for you for MONTHS c:

Haven of Trees (piano piece)

Powie — 2021-08-10 18:01:47 UTC

Congrats Ali on your surgery! I hope you're getting lots of rest and care in your recovery! I can't even begin to express how much a joy it's been to read the experience that is ITBMW. You and Kat are master storytellers and I'm so excited to see what takes place in the future! Thanks for all that you do ❤️❤️

So for this piece, I basically took all of "Green Forests" (with nods to maybe one or two other ITBMW songs ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) and arranged it as a dream sequence for everyone's favorite tree lover! Hope you enjoy 🌲

Hello Ali! I hope you’re doing well and continue to do so. You’re so strong and so skilled, and you’re gonna be back better than ever after your surgery. I hope this little meme comp will help you feel better, too (apologies for any weird volume fluctuations 😬). Thank you for helping to bring to life such a wonderful story, and the only thing I hope for more than its triumphant return is for you to have a great recovery. - ❤️ Mac (macandcaseus)

Also thought I'd make something ITBMW related too 😅 I'm not the best artist, but damn if your series isn't the most inspiring of muses. It is the dark in my light, the king to my queen 😉 I'm also not the best with words, but I hope you get my reference 💜

ITBMW Colors Edit

scorpivn — 2021-08-19 03:30:12 UTC

Hi Ali! For my gift to you, I made an edit which showcases some of my favorite scenes in ITBMW that utilized unique coloring and lighting. I hope you will appreciate this, especially since Emily revealed to me that you love it when people notice your use of coloring and lighting in ITBMW.

Congratulations on your surgery and I hope your recovery is going well. You're amazing for not only being a skilled artist and creating a comic that brought all of us together, but for being strong and continuing to interact with us even though you were preoccupied with your health. Take care of yourself and thank you for everything that you do 💌

A Little Drabble for Ali

Ali! We're all so happy that your surgery went smoothly and we hope that you're recovering well! Anyone who fights cancer deserves nice things, so these are all the nice things we put together for you! The world you created and the characters you helped bring to life are beyond incredible. Your work brought us together and you yourself inspire us all! Cheers to you and all the good news coming your way! 🥰🥳🍻🥂

My submission is a little drabble from Luka's POV. It ain't much, but it's honest work. 🤗

3D sculpt of Anya

lindsayseichter — 2021-08-22 22:38:52 UTC

Hi, Ali! Congratulations on your surgery! I know we haven't heard from you in a while but I hope you're recovering well and taking care of yourself! Thank you so much for your part in creating In the Bleak Midwinter, which is by far one of my favorite stories, as well as creating the patreon discord server. It's a fantastic community and group of people! I've met a ton of good friends on this server as well as picked up new hobbies thanks to this story.

For my portion of the gift I sculpted a 3D bust of Anya after she wakes up from dreamscape! Here is a render of the bust but I am also going to share the 3D file (and if you'd like I could share the project file of the sculpt itself).

I hope that you're doing well and that these projects help make you feel better! We can't wait for your recovery and that the process goes as smoothly as it can for you. <3

Commission for Ali by Elohimes!

lindsayseichter — 2021-08-22 22:41:29 UTC

So a bunch of us have pitched together to get a commission drawn for you by Elohimes! We met up online and coordinated the contents and mood of the drawing. We had a ton of ideas that we wanted to explore but eventually we narrowed it down to this! Elohimes sent us periodic updates on the piece as she worked on it and we sent her feedback to push it forward so here is Anya with her sister and mom! Elohimes was very excited about the project and we hope you enjoy! :D
