I’m sad to have reached the final day! This has been such a fun project, and I think I’ve managed to include most of the Moomins characters. Thank you @janelle.shane for all the wonderful prompts!

A cute hammerhead shark holding a shield and sword. Moominpappa has a catapult, and is saying “but swords are so passé!”
Sanitary towel packet, with a sanitary towel on the front in the shape of a hammerhead shark, holding a striped shield with a drop of blood on it, and brandishing a tampon. The wavy black and white background has the words “fighting the flow!”
28. The Shark Knight
I came across an old Japanese illustration of hammerhead sharks, which looked very cute and I thought fitted in well with the Moomins. And then, my mind went from shark knight/night to shark week, and the second picture happened 😂

22. Low Fuzzy Feats
This character from the Moomin books is called Fuzzy, so she was the perfect choice for today!

20. Scarlet Chaos
This prompt was the deciding factor in me choosing to draw Moomins this month, because what could better represent scarlet chaos than Little My!

19. Hellbrawk
Googling the work “brawk” just gave me results for “brawl”, so that’s what I drew!

This is what you get when you try to draw a cute Moomin drawing while watching Threads…

Two for the price of one today! Moominmamma in two different types of bog. Had the idea for image 1 while drawing image 2, and just had to do it!

I reckoned sprange must be short for spring flange, googled it and discovered there was such a thing, so that’s what I drew!

If anyone’s going to distract you, it’s Little My!

I feel the soot sprites from My Neighbour Totoro fit well in the Moominverse!

5. Great Flake
Snufkin may be unconventional and eccentric, but not unreliable. He is, however, smoking some great flake tobacco!

3. Evil Gold AND 4. Song of the Booty
The pirates’ booty of evil gold sings some Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan, while Snorkmaiden’s booty sings a little tune of its own!
