This week's mascots are pretty much inseparable, so I'm introducing them all at once.

Bio below. v


The Social Butterflies

Joined Game Jolt: 2012

Hobbies: Light gossip, communal flower gardening

Dislike: Synthetic fragrances

Bio: Tim, Tam, and Tom (from left to right), known as the Social Butterflies by all and sundry, grew up together in a small country village. They have always been close friends, minus a few childhood squabbles, and share a desire to contribute to the health and happiness of their community. In their free time, they enjoy good conversation, along with cultivating an organically grown communal flower garden. When there's news to be heard, one can always count on these three to know even the smallest details of a matter!

Author's notes:

It's probably pretty obvious that these three represent the various communication-centric features of GJ, such as comments, the forums, and so on. I like to think of their positivity and peaceful surroundings as being a sort of model of the ideal community vibe we could hope for here on Game Jolt.

Since the community is such a tremendous focus here, the butterflies have been used in lots of different ways on the site. At times, when I've received an assignment to create a new graphic, it's actually been hard not to think "Tim, Tam, and Tom would be perfect for that," because they're so easy to use in various scenarios.

The second image I included was made for an article about two years ago. It's a favorite of mine, because it really emphasizes the strong team spirit shared by these lovable characters.

Fabric / wallpaper surface pattern design for a challenge on Spoonflower themed around painterly florals.

Unfortunately, I had to rush this one at the last minute, but a customer already bought a swatch, so I guess I didn't do too badly! LOL

Hope everyone's week is off to a good start! I'm brainstorming ideas for a "farmer's market" pattern design challenge.

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing well today.

Here's the finished illustration I made for my friend who had the stroke recently. She's doing great, by the way—recovering well and making good progress with physical therapy.

I made this salad for MumBlargh, and she wants me to share it with you all.

Hmm... That's a lot of mouths to feed. I might have to make a bigger salad, huh.

We have a question and we wanna know: What game are you spending the most time playing lately? Complete the quest and you'll get Coins!

This is the first time I'm revealing the last post background I made for my joltbux shop. (Note: Creators cannot make free shop items.)

Proud of how this one turned out. I made the mist effect in Blender and painted the scene in Krita.

Happy weekend!
