Decided to spin this off of my main art thread. As I near the 20th anniversary (!!!) of my registration (March 15, 2027), I wanted to do something special to celebrate this website, the community and little world of characters that we've built.

Had the idea to draw a massive OS-tan group pic, one character per day, between now then, in the simplified art style of some of my other not-quite-as-large group pics.

I expect to run out of characters or space between now and then, but that's a bridge to cross when we get there.

Starting canvas (9300 x 7200 px)+ Week 1 lineup:


18 days in and still not out of Windows-tans...

Thank you Goujer! Fingers crossed I can keep up with this!



A small update this time. Hoping to post my progress weekly, and this gets me to week three. Neptune-tan is one of my favorites among the Windows, I was happy to finally get around to her. Windows CE, Odyssey, Server 2003, and the other 95 OSR-tan will round out this group ... might throw in a Windows 97 or Server 2008-tan cameo later. (I do want to have some -tans "where's waldo"'d away from the rest of their group.)

Gotta decide who I'll tackle next - the Linux-Unix family or Apple/Macs. Moreover, I need to decide if I want to insert any set pieces / setting around the different groups of -tans; I thought about it but can't figure out what I want to do.
