Magic Gopher

This one was fun to make! I spent a lot of time playing with different variations of the glitter trail behind the wand, and landed on something very minimal.

I generated the reference image using DALL-E with the following prompt:

Illustration of a charming gopher dressed in a pink tutu, gracefully twirling on her toes. She holds a sparkling magic wand in her paw and waves it in the air.

Admittedly it came out looking more like a chipmunk than a gopher, but that's alright since gophers are quite ugly IRL.

This is awesome. It blows my mind how some people can draw in ascii. I downloaded ASCII-draw on Linux, and all I can think was, how the heck do you even begin.

@jules

There are a bunch of ASCII art tutorials here:

The hayley flump one is good starting point!
