November goodie bag sticker, thank you notes and sealers

Hi guys! I just finished working on the the new sticker! Since the topic of the month was "I go where you go", I had a few ideas on how to tackle the sticker. This time I really craved drawing a chibi version of the demon Fili. I wanted him to be a little companion, and since the main print for the month showed him clinging to Filip from behind it made me think of a backpack~ So I sketched out a few ideas:

I thought that making a plushie version of the demon hanging in Filip's backpack would be super adorable. Unfortunately, after sketching out the ideas I didn't feel satisfied, so I tried out a different idea still involving the backpack. A different one this time - cat window backpack! The idea was to cramp the demon inside and see him pressed against the see through wall~
To my dismay the end result wasn't easy to read, so I took a shot at the first doodle of the chibi hanging in the backpack. As much as it oozed cuteness I think it would have been better as a keychain rather than a sticker 🤔
Third and the last try forced me to think a bit outside of the backpack theme. "I go where you go" reminded me of those small companions you sometimes get in games that pester you to follow the main plot. On top of that, thinking about the games in the context of the November theme reminded me of the famous Legend of Zelda quote "It's dangerous to go alone! Take this." So naturally I slapped these two together and proceeded to draw a feisty little demon chibi guy~

I felt like working with some mixed media on this one, so I took a photo of my hands and edited the guy on top of them~ Here's the result - a mockup for the sticker~
