HEL’S COMMISSION INFO

Inspiration:

Realistically the Warlock would be going off for six hours about how Asaru needs to rejoin the rest of his people but honestly. it would probably still get the same response from Asaru

blame @esmeral she came up with this dynamic

Just posted a new speedpaint to my Ko-Fi! If you'd like to watch it (and get a better glimpse at my next long-form video essay) you can sign up here and support me for a little bit of pocket change per month :'3

Alright this is my favorite ref sheet I've done so far

Charybdis! Evil granny. I don't know why she lends herself so well to fullbody work (I think mainly because it's way too much fun to work with her four arms, four arms is a fantastic design choice for any non-human character in fiction) but she is so consistently fun to draw

though it is funny that the way her dress works makes her torso look too long compared to her legs lmao

I might have some notes for Transformers: Animated's writers about the morals they teach to children.

Decided to do more artfight refs, this time for my gijinka Pumprincess and Pumpking

Figured the added detail would be useful anyway, and they're fun to draw :'3

(Fun note: Eduard/Pumpking is comically tall. I think I put his height somewhere in the ballpark of 8"10, which wikipedia tells me is just an inch less than the tallest a man has been recorded to be without having gigantism or another similar disorder. Adela/Pumprincess is only like, 5"3)

Needed to practice basic animation so have a blinking Bond

Somehow it took me this long to realize I could scribble a ref for my older!Kotsuzuka design and put it up for ArtFight

how can i ever resist doodling him. he's so pretty. my style only slightly yassifies him but let's be honest he was gd pretty in the original anime as well, it just depended how much sleep the animators got that week

A couple more XCOM OC refs: Leon and Detlef! I am starting to vibe with this layout for character refs lol we'll see how long it lasts

Vipers are tricky to draw. It's mostly the head shape and the hood I think. Anyway Detlef's colour scheme comes from the blue racer snake, because blue racers are pretty

Also I didn't intentionally give Leon the same name as the pilot from the Bureau (not that I'm sure I've even seen anyone mention that character because the Bureau is only ever talked about because people like/theorize around Asaru lmao), but it does feel appropriate/ironic/funny to me to have a guy with a related ethnicity from the other side of the iron curtain have the same name (I say this because Bureau!Leon is one of two characters to mention the Cold War during the course of the game/use the word "Commies" in relation to Russians lmfao)

show me your teeth

Monsterfucking hours consumed and compelled me to draw Echi's teeth (also because I tend not to draw her with her mouth open nearly enough)

I haven't done an AMV in a hot minute

Moxrider, with background Tomko (The Chosen Hunter)/Elena

Subtextually, yes. I never stop thinking about how Elena almost certainly has CPTSD from every man she ever even starts to care about getting kidnapped and/or killed in front of her. (Volk is apparently the only exception since he's not a romantic interest)
