Designed by Cassie

Yeeter began her art journey in July, when she pursued an interest in drawing. She taught herself basic line art while working to perfect her designs. In December, Yeeter began creating designs for the Army of Club Penguin and has continued her design efforts within ACP, eager to support her army through graphic design.

On February 5, 2025, Yeeter applied to be a cartoonist for Club Penguin Armies, showcasing a design she created that represented all aspects of the community. After being accepted, she began contributing to CPA through both artworks and comics. Yeeter’s first comic depicted the Doritos attempting to instigate battles with other armies. Since then, she has become an integral part of the cartoonist team, working to produce funny, high-quality comics to this day. Yeeter’s unique art style continues to highlight her talent and make her work stand out.

A Quick Chat With Yeeter

Club Penguin Armies reached out to Yeeter to learn more about her experience as a cartoonist.

What do you believe was your most complex/difficult design? How did you overcome it?

This old project and my first one is called Project Reference: Armies and Penguins (PR: AAP) and by far that was the most complicated thing i have ever done mainly cuz that was my first time using that drawing app (Sketchbook) that time 😅. I think i saw alot of mistakes those times and makes me continue to improve on this art style even more rather than just quit and continue making bad linearts.

Are there any designs that you are exceptionally proud of? If so, which ones?

This is the new (revival) version on the old PR:AAP and honestly, there were alot of damn improvements and even adding a llittl improvements to the old one. Though, there are some few mistakes i made there but that didn’t stop me by continuing this path even more. This is also the art that made Edu look at me and offered me the role of Cartoonist.

Looking back, what do you think about the growth and progress you have made regarding your design?

Oooohhh alot of progress happened especially to my own style of art, i started to some silly line art making at google notes, then moving to sketchbook to further experiment my new art style and finally having a confidence drawing and making comics here with 2 art styles. One being the usual thick and bold colors and other making an appearance to my latest comic (which that art style is temporary cuz of the April fools themed)

A Round Of Advice

To conclude this post, Club Penguin Armies asked Yeeter if she had any advice for those who wished to get into art themselves.

Remember to have ur own style of art. I teached currently 2 person in some servers and one thing that pops out of my mind is “what their art style look like” . Cuz u can’t just copy someones art style and put it ur own, u have to create ur own art style to be known and let the community react to it to see if you needed improvement or not, cuz thats what i always feel into my art and i cherish every single one of them despite some arts kept away or hidden away to the public eye.

It was a pleasure to sit down with Yeeter and gain insight into one of the community’s most well-known cartoonists. We hope Yeeter’s discussions about her artistic process have inspired anyone interested in being a cartoonist. We here at CPA thank Yeeter for her contributions to the community. What do you think is the most complex part of creating comics? What advice from her resonated with you?
