2020 - Mix'n'Match Shipping Results

Happy Valentine's Day everyone, or Singles Awareness day if you prefer! I hope you're spending it doing something you love, I might be giving that new Sonic the Hedgehog film a watch.

Since the start of the year you've been voting for who you wanted to see shipped together for this day. If you voted, I give you my thanks and hope that you are satisfied with the results.

Last year you may remember that Monika and Marceline won the poll. Fun fact for you, during my interview for a degree course I'm hoping to take, they came across this Monika illustration and it was the only one to be criticized for his manga-esque style! It was most amusing having to explain the artwork to her. As a finished piece, it's concept was a beautiful blend of mediums with a wholesome narrative in which Monika used her computer manipulation abilities to gift Marceline with a reflection. Hopefully Marceline didn't delete Monika in the end, though I wonder what Princess Bubblegum would have to say about that!

So onto this year's results. Ten franchises, two characters from each, you were given the chance to create chaos and here is the results!

Receiving the lowest votes were:

Gary Thomas, Tokah Yatogami, Arthur Fleck, Sonic the Hedgehog, MJ, Sophie Dumond and The Master

Making 10% of the votes were:

Gabriel Agreste, Johnny Bravo, Star-Lord, Doctor Who (Jodie Whittaker), Lexi Golden, Nathalie Sancoeur, Itsuka Shido and Gamora

The couple that comes in second place on the poll is Alastor from Hazbin Hotel and Dr. Robotnik from Sonic the Hedgehog! Therefore I challenge you to draw these two as a ship and see how crazy it can get!

Two of these characters were clearly going to win, but to my surprise there was a third winner who had quite a huge following! Collecting almost 25% of the votes in total, here is the winning trio!

Peter Parker

(Spider Man MCU)

Velma Dinkley

(Scooby Doo)

Angel Dust

(Hazbin Hotel)



What a trio! Two are nerds, two are spiders and the three of them played off each other so well I almost couldn't decide how to put this one together! I think this comic strip styled illustration speaks for itself though, wouldn't you agree?

Thank you again to everyone who voted and gave me this ridiculous illustration to develop! Look forward to next year when this challenge returns, however as there are some changes to Droey's Draws on the way, this will be the last time you see a Mix'n'Macth Shipping on this blog! Future results will be uploaded to Instagram and assuming the new blog is set up, there will also be posts on there in the same format as you see here.

What do you think is the fate of this trio and their potentially romantic endeavor? Let me know what you think!
