Happy Memories & Feline Noperies

American here - back again! Whew, feels like ages since I posted anything. But I hope everyone was entertained and informed by the guest posts shared by Alex.
Been crazy busy around here with National Holidays, warehouse moving, meetings, sick relatives, hospital visits, travel, and more... but I think things are finally starting to settle down.
And with that... it's...
LIVE STREAM TIME!
Yay, there will be a Twitch Live Stream (also streamed to YouTube) this week.
You can join us via my Twitch Channel or YouTube Channel. But if you're interested in prizes (of course you are!) then you'll want to join via Twitch!
We'll check out all the Alice: Asylum latest art/design stuff; we'll talk about updates to our Business Development efforts; and there'll be PRIZES and fun. Yay!
Shared in this post are a couple of new sketches from Adam. These depict possible ways to render the girls (Alice and Lizzie) playing just prior to the moment where they take a tumble, break a tea set, and some blood is spilled.
I suggested in my notes that it might be better to render this as the girls spinning each other - hands locked together and twirling in circles around the room. I remember when I was a kid causing a lot of damage with that particular move. I think they even use it in "pro" wrestling!
The cat certainly looks like "Rawr, get me the eff out of here!"
I this scene the cat has more of a calm, "Nope, nope, nope," look about him. He knows it's time to run away but isn't going to give the humans the pleasure of thinking they are the reason his legs are moving. Cats. SMH.
Anyway, let us know in the comments which cat/girl pose you think works best. Of if you think the spinning idea is as awesome as I do.
Hope to see you all on the live stream this week!

Love the 2nd one and the last one with them holding hands , so cute. All these sketches are really awesome.
2021-10-19 15:17:59 +0000 UTCD is my favorite but c is okay too.

2021-10-19 00:22:19 +0000 UTCI say either C, or the girls' pose from C with the cat's pose from D.

2021-10-13 03:14:28 +0000 UTCI am also really liking the idea Nicholas had about Alice jumping off of the table as a nod to the quote from her mom in AMR.

2021-10-12 15:13:50 +0000 UTCD all the way😋
2021-10-12 11:15:52 +0000 UTCI agree with Nicholas and Dominik, would be a neat little call back to reference that line from madness returns and it still gives the vibe you were wanting of the two girls playing
2021-10-12 08:58:35 +0000 UTC"C" is really really perfect! T0T
2021-10-12 08:05:23 +0000 UTC"D" works for me the most and I love the suggestion of Nicholas Brokaw with jumping from a table idea :D
2021-10-12 06:16:56 +0000 UTCI would love a mix of both the spinning pose and the get me out of here cat pose the two combined would be perfect.

2021-10-12 04:51:08 +0000 UTCI’m liking D for both the cat and the girls, but if we could get an option for them spinning around I might choose that depending on how it turns out. SUGGESTION: I’d love to see an option with Alice jumping from a table as a nod towards the quote from Mrs. Liddell in Madness Returns: “If you leap from that table again, Alice, I’ll expire! You’re two times too reckless, my girl.”

2021-10-12 02:27:27 +0000 UTCI like the cats expression in c but I like the attitude the cat gets in d so what about merging the 2 if possible like the cat gets out of the way quick before looking back like I wasn't scared and walking away
2021-10-12 01:59:52 +0000 UTCI really really like C
2021-10-12 01:39:11 +0000 UTCC or D but heavily leaning towards C

2021-10-12 01:36:52 +0000 UTCD!!! It feels the most natural with Alice holding Lizzie’s hand and Lizzie looking like “alright little sis, I’ll play with you and daisy…”
2021-10-12 01:36:50 +0000 UTCFor the cat pose, I totally agree with having the cat have a "get me out of here look". Maybe look into some cat behavior pictures, and add things like flatten and pulled back ears and a very puffed up tail.
