if Northern Downpour was a Doki Doki Literature Club song | Panic! At Th...

Earlier this year I was kinda curious about how a PATD song would sound like as a DDLC soundtrack, soooo this happens.... well actually I blame the "the ink flows down into a dark puddle" part, reminding me of "the ink is running toward the page" in Northern Downpour. That gave me the idea for this mash-up cover.

This time I had to repeatedly listen to both songs WHILE in the process of making this cover, trying to get the notes right. It's still harder to control my voice & breathing though, plus I just recovered from a cold so that explains the slight phlegminess. The video accidentally got cut off in the first part, cuz halfway through drawing the iPad ran out of battery, & Procreate failed to save everything from the beginning.

Since the original Northern Downpour video is black and white, I should do a B&W drawing of the Doki Doki girls as well, but somehow part of me still wants their signature color to pop out, so I picked a very desaturated, but not completely desaturated, color palette for the timelapse drawing. And just for fun you can see the colors by tweaking the saturation on Photoshop.
