Patterns made in GIMP, 2 of which are PNGs, with a screenshot from the videogame "Who's Lila?" by Garage Heathen. This time it is the character of Michael "Mike" Graves.
A little gift for @tanyakennedy1899 who encouraged me to make more character patterns. I hope you like it! Thank you (and everyone else in the Who's Lila? community!) for reblogging my fanart, it helps to keep me motivated and make more. <3
I have just realised that the characters with shorter hair and without hats will be the easiest to make to make patterns out of lol. RIP to the girls, we'll see if I can figure out something for them.
(Also I had no idea what background to use this one, so I chose some more neutral ones. In case of Will (or Lila-as-Will), using the red one made sense because of a certain scene in the game, but less so with Mike. I am open to ideas!)

"Who's Lila? - Michael 'Mike' Graves" aesthetic/moodboard
[sources: x / x / x / x / x ]
Aesthethic/Moodboard made with GIMP using stock images from unsplash for the character "Michael Graves" of the videogame "Who's Lila?" by Garage Heathen. Both the game and this piece of art make use of 'dithering'.
Additional thoughts beneath the cut:
Sadly, most interactions with Mike in the game are rather confrontational and the player doesn't find out a lot about the character, but I wanted to put what little bits the story tells us about Mike into a moodboard - the loss of his little brother Malcolm and the subsequent grief, his (complicated) relationship with Tanya, the myriad of feelings he is dealing with due to the events of the story.
I quite like how this turned out. I also noticed I am getting faster at figuring out how to choose images, arrange them, dither them in a way I like etc. And I also enjoy trying to follow the format I set for this particular set of moodboards. Dithering is really fun and I have started to try out different things with that artstyle in the last few weeks.

She mad because she was forced to wear a Christmas hat (she wanted William to be an elf)


My little Christmas doodles (this took me 9 hours)
Will: reindeer, Martha: elf on the shelf, Tanya: just a Christmas hat, Mike: Santa, Jay and Mandy: gingerbread, Matt: candy cane, Ellie: goth Christmas tree.
I forgot to do Jimmy and Regina, I’m sorry 😔

CAT REFERENCES GO HARD (I might make the lighting better)

And finally the reference✨:
