Pastel Punk 3206

(1/???)

something I want to do is show off alot of the artists I follow online or have seen that are huge inspirations to my art style in many ways and just what about each of them I adore so much and would be huge inspirations for Video Games ide make or stories ide write

and no better place to start is with one of the first artists that really inspired my early concept arts and even my first ever pictures drawn with Digital art, for the longest time I had started out with Medibang before moving to procreate and this artist always inspired me

I am talking about @mysticplies I was a huge Steven Universe nut as a kid and still kinda am, I stumbled into their art forever ago when trying to find ref pics for the Water Bear Corrupted Gem and stumbled on this full body design

I was greatly impressed by this art because it basically looked like an official piece from the show so I looked onto their tumblr where I was blessed with some of the best Steven Universe gem ideas I've ever seen!

some of my favorite concepts was their Tourmaline art which inspired me to make my own fusions based on the designs

the thing that drew me in was infact the shape languages that they had used in their Gem designs. Incase your not aware in Steven Universe there's these four diamond matriarchs that create the other gems and how mystic applies the shapes is also based on what diamonds made what gems

enough of my yapping here's a handful of my favorite designs they have made

Ill be linking every Artist I post on this thread, so please go give Mystic some support!

Moving onto more shape languages an artist I adore has to be @onebadnoodle not just in the shape language department but also just overall character design in general. Every time I open tumblr I am just enamored with their character designs and redesigns, my personal favorite thing to see is when they explore a character design which in fact how I stumbled into their art

like Mystic I found this artist via fandom related content but instead of Steven Universe it was Teen Titans! now ide seen some of Noodle's arts before hand but the Teen Titan redesigns was the thing that cemented my adoration to this artist

I am obessed with sketchy line art and also just seeing the creative process behind character design so seeing how they explored these designs and came up with such creative ideas I cant even explain just look

some of my favorite ideas is Raven and Robin's masks looking akin to the birds they are named after and Cyborg having CABLE LOCS?! this artist was one of the artists that really inspires me to use more than hair for hair which seems like a basic concept but like it hadnt accured until seeing these ideas

I havent posted the final artworks of these to encourage yall to check out their profile please check them out I adore their work

Dissecting the Ancients and Beasts costumes and how they relate or are different. And I wanted to show off my own idea for Golden Cheese and Burning Spice Costumes

Each AU is pretty different

- At the Peak of Truth, Despair not - this AU is more of a swap of the two roles of PV and SM but it also implies PV never got the soul jam and SM has his full soul Jam

- Eternity in the Embrace of Sloth - is an AU where when ES broke HB’s shield she was successfully convinced to stay in the Garden

- At the Peak of Stillness - this is an AU where DC had mysteriously vanished and his son Dark Choco had taken mantle as king, and the kingdom prospered. This made DC feel empty and soon with words from MF apathetic

So for my GC and BS costumes I continued the themes of a Cycle where the two are locked in an endless battle for so long BS realized he took joy in creating armies and wars while GC forsaken everything to destroy him.
