Description my next gift is for Raquel "Rocky" Ormsby-Olivares, AKA

I discovered her a bit more recently, about 2 months ago. Since then, she has dazzled me and the rest of the community with cute and expressive art! She has a great imagination, which shows in her "Heroes&Bandits" webcomic, and always puts a smile on my face when her art appears in my messages on dA or in my dashboard on tumblr. Not to mention she makes some incredible things when she crochets! From sweaters to little amigurumi plushies (those things are adorable!), she never ceases to amaze me with what she can come up with next. Her work inspires me to go further with my characters and their facial expressions, and sparks up my love for patterns and designs.

here's her crocheting account:

So if you're reading this Rocky, keep up the crocheting, and don't stop doodling!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAA

This is the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me!! (as far as online friends go.. REALLY) WOW!

I am so flattered; and boy-howdy I love the way you drew the crocheted creations. And not because they're mine!! I love that texture (haha, where'd you get that from? Everytime I search crochet texture, I find a few that sort of work, but never look quite right to me. Perhaps I'll have to make my own someday )

Thank you SO MUCH man!! You're too kind. I'm blushing and freaking out right now... >w<

Oh man, I'm very glad you like it! You deserve it!

I found that crochet texture on google, almost by chance, and it took a while to find the right texture for your little crochet creatures. But it was worth it, I see!

LOL a lot of folks say that even with my own drawing of the knee/kneecap~

(I totally have knobby knees, and love the silly cartooniness of ~RedBlooper 's!)

The Crochet characters are really cool looking, thanks for introducing this artist as well. Very new to me as well.

Thanks, those characters are actually based off real crochet plushies she's done. If you check out her crochet account's gallery, she has pictures of them.
