Sketching them in my tmnt art style

Not gonna pretend I’m good at drawing ‘prettily’ ~

I like having my turtles dark and of skewered proportions sometimes. These two have been on my mind and I thought that they’d fit this style 😗

The first time we get to see our heroes speak about their pain from their perspective! I feel like the fandom has always acknowledged that both of them have gone through a lot and stick through a lot. But this is truly the first time we heard them speak of how they handle positively approaching their pain compared to just showing us their positivity. The two of them explaining how they stay positive makes me understand their motivation better and feel like they are even more real characters to me.

Just the whole idea that Shadybug and Clawnoir were their darker alter egos. I know we roughly knew that going in, but seeing both of them break down (esp when Shady read Mari's diary) really gave Mari and Adrien even more dimension. I like that we get to see Mari and Adrien as people who didn't end up approaching their problems with positivity and love. I think a lot of people can relate to that.

I enjoyed seeing a kind Gabriel. His fatherly-like role towards the two of them at the end showed what Gabriel could have been for them both had he approved of their relationship.

Enemies to Lovers trope! I thought they liked each other but their banter was just bad. But in actuality, they did seem to not really like each other and were more forced into partnership than anything else. Appreciating each other's company after just hit harder !!

All in all...I watched this special this afternoon and it's stayed with me throughout the day. Something about it was truly very special and hit deep. When I figure out more of what I want to say, maybe I'll drop a few more thoughts :")

[OC] What I think Spiderbug looks like

This final Spiderbug design, to me, represents a mixture of Mari and Ladybug! Her flats are reflected in the pink shoe outline and I retained her pigtails.

She has a special spider yoyo that's sentient and guides her just like Tikki in the movie. It's legs can come out and it can detach to give her an extra hand when scanning her surroundings or untangling her webs when she's in sticky situations!

If Ladybug was a Spiderverse character (Spiderbug)

The final full body design is the far right one in the 3rd pic!

I heard that Ladybug was inspired by Spiderman at some point. Whether or not that's true, here's my take of what Mari/Ladybug would look like as a spidey :3 I had a lot of fun with this! I thought I'd share a bit of my development process before my final~

I wanted to make a phone wallpaper for myself that I could resonate with; so I drew this XD

Alone time on a rooftop accompanied by a kitty cat, watching the evening turn into night.

An ideal image of what brings me peace~
