Galactic Ambition Icons!
Today marks the one-year anniversary of my biggest story yet, Galactic Ambition! I didn't think we could make it, but here we are.
To celebrate, from now till the end of March, I'll be posting new anniversary art every Saturday and Sunday like we're back in 2024 all over again. This will include new anniversary art, a poster, and even brand new art of some characters I never got to showcase in the story. To begin this, we got a new series of icons for use! These include:
Harpy
Mentally-traumatized child
Cat lady
Five-eyed paint monster
Sheep
And demon!
While it's clearly an odd mixture of good, evil, and neutral, it does collaborate all the new and old faces we met in the story. As a plus note, I wanted to add more characters like Bianca's true and Soul forms and Project S.L.E.E.P., but I just didn't have room because of Marx Soul. I'm sure that I can get them in some other drawings later this month.

Finally, here it is! Galactic Nora!
Now, as you may have noticed, her design here is a bit different than what was described a few months ago. I did want to make her look like an angelic being of light, and while that concept was sorta fufilled in her final design, I sorta wanted to go in another direction.
Being a cat-like machine, I wanted to give Nora some cat-like features such as the tail, nose, and "whiskers". I also added some other details such as a striped sash, a crack in her glasses (to reflect part of Nova's head being damaged near the end of Milky Way Wishes), and even adding her heart/Nucleus to her chest for some added effect.
About her personality: she's Marx's conscience and thus governs the actions he should avoid doing, especially now that Marx Soul is officially gone. She's sort of a mother to Marx - even more so when you remember his old mom has gone with the wind. She likes teaching morals to Marx, eating cat food, and granting wishes at the flick of her finger.
I actually kind of like her final design, I think it works pretty well!
