Pierce & Hem Animatic

This short animatic was a birthday gift for my girlfriend, written, storyboarded, and drawn by yours truly!I had the absolute pleasure of working with one of my favourite voice actors, Wes Wiggins (AKA Funnywes)! She did a fantastic job playing both Pierce and Hem :)

Sparkle On, Raven! Reanimated

2024-2025 collaborative animated project reimagining the fourth episode of Sparkle On, Raven! The Life of Drillgirl.I helped moderate the project, alongside animating a handful of parts, at 8:01-8:03 and 12:02-12:29, as well as playing a sleepy Raven from 5:07-5:27 :)This project was challenging because it was by far the most complex animation I've ever tackled personally, but it ended up being super worth it! Everyone did a great job and you should check out the final version!!

How to Start a Cult

Animated video delving into the backstory of the main antagonist of Hexworld, a project I'm developing with my girlfriend. audio was originally from the short film How to Start a Cult.This video was a way for me to experiment with various symbols in Hexworld (eyes, butterflies, and the colour purple), and pushing myself to tell a story in a short-form, abstract way.

Buttercup

Short animation created for Art Fight 2022, featuring 15 characters designed by other artists (credits in video)! This project took me around a week and a half of continuous work.

Splatoon Mock Magazine

A personal fanart project to create a pair of magazine spreads made to look from the world of the Splatoon games.Streetwear fashion is a huge part of the culture of the playable cepholopods, Inklings and Octolings, and I wanted to stay faithful to the variety of cool clothing the game has to offer. I chose some of my favourite clothing from the game and got to work dressing them with the same variety you'd find in a lobby of real players!My favourite part of the project was getting to break structural rules. Splatoon is a game about rebellion at its core, so escaping the grids with overlapping characters, ink splat overlays, and angled elements was the perfect touch to make this project come to life and feel like something from the universe.

Ideation

Soracon's branding was inspired by visuals that I adore as an anime fan raised on late 2000s and early 2010s online anime fandom. That time was known for its bright colours, quick angular typefaces, and pictures of cute anime girls dominating the thumbnails of sped-up pop songs.Most importantly, though, anime fandom, and by extension anime conventions, were much smaller and more community-focussed. That home-grown feel was what we wanted to capture.Soracon's name came from a brainstorming session with the team. I suggested "Sora" (japanese word for sky) as a nod to the provincial slogan: Land of Living Skies.

Our Mascot: Puff

Like many anime conventions, we wanted a mascot to represent our event and attract potential attendees. After all, what does an anime fan love more than a cute anime character?Puff was conceived as the stereotypical Cute Anime Girl™. She's a bubbly character with cloud hair, big boots, and a comfy sweater. Each aspect of her design was decided by group discussion to be made to be cute as hell. It really worked, cuz everyone in the discord server loves her :)

Poster

Poster I made to advertise the convention. We posted a ton of these around the city of Regina in the months leading up to the convention.

Badges

These badges were made to identify staff and vendors to attendees! They have contrasting colours to differentiate them at a glance.

Social Media

In the lead-up to Soracon, I was also in charge of running the instagram and maintaining the website. This is something I had never done before at the time, but despite the hurdles, I managed to pull through and learn a ton from the experience. Specifically: remember to schedule the posts or you will forget and get off track real quick.All post layouts are built as templates on Canva, a decision I made to be sure that anybody on the team would be able to edit them in the event that I'm not around.You can see all our posts on our Instagram!

Guidebook

This guidebook contains necessary info for attendees such as maps, show hours, and the day's event schedule. Because we were a first-time con with a budget of basically nothing, we planned to keep within a small pagecount to keep costs down, which I feared would make things a little difficult to cram into one small book, but in the end it ended up fitting nicely, with even a couple pages to spare for a little bit of art.My favourite part of this aspect of the project was getting to print and cut it myself in the print room. It's really cool to get to see it go from screen to physical book!!

My Story

My brand's story begins in 2019. I had been going by "wackysnacky" at the time on all my social media platforms, and when I began applying for a table at Ganbatte 2020 in Saskatoon I realized* I wanted something a little more professional to go by in what I hoped would end up being my career.* Also I discovered "wacky snacky" is slang for breast milk...I settled on "Nebulee" as a brand name, fusing my name (Lee) and nebula, as space has been one of my interests since I was a young child.The first iteration of my logo was a little rough, but would pave the way for what would eventually become my current brand!

Logo Redesign

In 2023, my college personal branding class required I design a logo for myself, and this was the perfect opportunity to do so. I took a step back and looked at the colours (kind of a washed out pink, purple, and yellow) and decided I wanted to take the foundation I had there and add something a new spin to it.I chose green and blue as colours alongside my favourite shade of magenta to match my fursona/mascot character, Chip. The stars in the logo are also a nod to his star shaped glasses.

My Fursona

Chip (he/they) is a character I designed to represent me online, and he underwent a major redesign himself in 2023. I did a lot of design exploration with him, wanting to lean more into the space theme. I settled on a character theme for him that I really love: a cyberpunk space axolotl with a kickass sense of fashion!Chip's design involved a lot of introspection when it came to design choices. Everything in him is taken from something about myself: my favourite animal is the axolotl, my favourite colours are magenta and green, I love space and futuristic aesthetics, etc. All these elements come together to create a design that's very Me!

Social Media Graphics

My concept for the social media graphics was to keep a consistent style with the font, logo, textures, and art, but change the colours up to tell each different type of graphic apart from a distance. This way, people scrolling on social media will always notice something different, instead of the same visuals getting boring and lost in the noise.

The Zine

The final formatting of the zine was my favourite part of the project. For one, it was super cool getting to see everyone's work come together into a finished product. For two, this was the first zine I formatted after starting my college graphic design program, so it was fun getting to flex the muscles I'd built up over a year or so.A personal highlight of the zine is the collage in the front. I love how it turned out, giving the reader a sneak peek of all the beautiful art that they'd be seeing later in the zine!The credits page was another really fun part. I was very proud of the choice to show a small snippet of the artwork to connect the artist to their artwork with a small reminder to the reader. I've grown to really appreciate user experience touches like those, and try to incorperate them into my work.

PNGtuber

This PNGTuber model is my pride and joy!! I had made 2 different models of my fursona Chip up to this point, but they were rudimentary with only about 12 static poses. I wanted to upgrade him in a big way, and this redesign project was a great opportunity.He was constructed in PNGTuber+ with over 51 individual layers and about 300 frames of animation across his 9 unique expressions. The eyes, brows, mouth, hair, gills, chest, arms, etc are all seperated to allow for fluid animations and easy swapping.He reacts to mic activity to give the illusion that I'm speaking through him. Sometimes I find myself just opening his model and talking into my mic for fun, LOL.I learned the program as I was making him, which was an endeavour to say the least, but in the end he's super cute! Unfortunately he does sometimes crash the program, the process of optimizing him is still ongoing...

Background

With my PNGTuber done, he needed a place to live, leading to this background! It's a futuristic building in a space city, inspired by sci-fi tropes and strangely the space room at the Fantasyland Hotel in Edmonton.Throughout the room are an entire henhouse worth of easter eggs to my OCs, my favourite media, and real plushies I own! I really wanna live here...

Break screens

One of the things I lacked in my old setup was a proper "Starting Soon", "Be Right Back", and "Thanks for Watching" screen. My old solution was to just scribble something in MSPaint like "BRB", but I really wanted something more complex. With this new layout, I made a few different scenes of Chip in his room, from various angles that you see in the background. I really feel like it ties the entire room together and makes it feel like a more lived-in space.At this point, I thought that it would be even cooler to add some simple animation to the scenes, and I feel like that choice was a good one because it adds an extra layer of interest, which is necessary for a screen designed for people to wait.

design exploration: my fursona

i recently redesigned my fursona, chip. originally they had a grey jumpsuit, but i wanted something a little more bright to represent me online.i chose to design them with a futuristic, spacey theme in mind to go with the whole "nebulee" thing. I had a few different colour palettes in mind before i settled on the green-blue gradient jacket and star glasses

sonic underground redesigns

a personal project to redesign the protagonists of the infamously lackluster DIC cartoon, sonic underground. this show is very close to my heart since i watched it as a kid and i wanted to draw my own take on the main characters.the trio are triplets and bandmates who use magical instruments as weapons. i wanted to unify their designs with a central element (their red jackets), while allowing their individual aesthetics to shine :)

redesign project: childhood sonic fan characters

these characters are from a redesign series i did on stream where i sat down and remade a handful of sonic fan characters i created around ages 8-11.the goal of the project was to create appealing designs while maintaining recognizable elements from the original illustrations, such as marina's ghostly form made more obvious and talin's robot limbs being extended across his whole body. This was a really fun project to do live!
