I sure as hell used pose references to help me with this lol. The dress alone nearly killed me until I found some references lol.

This here is Mania as a child. As you can see in the last part, she's calling out for her "Luci", who is Luciel - a character Doloshroom created and who we paired her up with. I swear, Mania and Luciel is one of my OTPs and I will go down with the ship even if it kills me lol.

She's very adorable.....in a very horror-like way lol. The kind of child you see in a horror movie. So, in my mind, it fits!

I did sketch her as an adult as well, but I messed up on it - one hand in it doesn't have her freckles lol. So might fix that up before posting it up. Or might redo her adult self.

I may be showing different versions of Mania that I created as well! I got tons lol. She's one of my favorite characters so I made sure to make tons of versions of her because I couldn't keep a hold of my creativity. Hope you enjoy her child self and the more versions of her to come~
