Collaborative Project 2019 April Fandom/Cosplay

base
Can you believe it's almost MAY! Been very busy with school, almost over only two weeks left.  Above is my very crowded page of clothing for this months theme.  I did a lot of mix and match pages.  For fandom, I decided to focus on graphic tees and printed bottoms of popular fandoms such as: Game of Thrones, Star Wars, Harry Potter, DC comics, Mario(video game leggings), My little Pony (looks bootleg) and a Sailor Moon inspired print skirt.  for the cosplay outfit, I chose the character Sakura from Card Captor Sakura anime.  

Please note I will be signing all my art as Melissa Pepe now.
 Make sure to check out the other blogs/artist to see what they have designed for this theme

The Wishing Well

I went to the antique store yesterday with my mom and to my surprise I found these NOS (New old stock) Easter cards for just fifty cents each!  Additional bonus, the booth was 20% off, so they were even less then that.  I bought one of each design I could find.  I scanned the backs to most, but some had a blank back or just numbers, so I didn't include those ones.  Some have foil that did not scan very well, too shiny I suppose.  Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter!

Easter Paper Doll 2019

Can you believe Easter is this weekend!? Above is my lineart for this years Easter paper doll.  The bunny girl is wearing a carrot print swimsuit.  On the first page she has 4 pairs of shoes, two baskets, and 6 outfits.  The second page includes 2 more pair of shoes and 9 outfits.  I hope to color this before Easter, but no promises.

Tillie the Toiler

Here's a newspaper doll of Tillie the Toiler. She has one yellow dress.  This has some age issues, as the red color has smudged into the yellow on the dress.  dated 5-1-1932.  Artist is Russ Westover. this is from King Feature Syndicates Great Britain.

100 Day project

I am keeping up with the 100 day project, i just don't always have time to scan and post said progress. First page done, days 2-9.  This will be standard format, though some pages may have mix match top bottoms.  It is so hard for me to post to Instagram because I have to use my tablet, which I prefer my computer. Yard sale this weekend so may not post.

A Joyous Easter!

A break from the previous posts of paper doll project to share a vintage Easter card.  This card is designed by Marjorie B Harter and is from Rust Craft, dated 1948.  The inside is signed but I included a Photoshop version without the added text.
