Comic Book Gem Monsters: UNCORRUPTED :)

Sorry it’s been a minute but I have been drawing a lot lately, I’ve got over 80+ gems drawn out I believe so I might go back to regularly posting! Anyways a little about these lesbians! In my HC these were all Crystal Gems (to make my life easier lol). Pearl for scale on the left!!

1. Sphalerite - fusion of a Citrine, a Nephrite, and a Bixbite. Very tall.

2. Idocrase - fusion of 4 unkown gems, not great at fighting but a pro at hugging.

3. Iridescent Goethite - very large bashful gem with a huge heart. Made to roll out material projectiles for cannons (cannonballs). Would rather roll in the grass.

4. Variscite - quick gem with strong caretaking tendencies. Used to be something like a gem nurse in Homeworld.

5. Jeremejevite - loves digging, in Homeworld she created holes to anchor down large structures to the ground. Now helps humans in construction.

6. Amazonite - originally an organic life biologist, now helps run the local animal shelter. She can also communicate with animals. Very fond of raccoons.

7. Andesine - used to be a scribe for court proceedings, now works as a writer.

8. Realgar - originally used for retrieval missions, now she works as a lifeguard!

9. Bowenite - made to be a historian and philosopher, now works as a gem history teacher.

10. Heulandite - small gem who can make it snow within a radius around her. Originally used to keep artifacts cool in warm colonies.

11. Viridine - incredibly feisty small gem with dashing abilities, her temper has since cooled and now works at the local library!

I hope you enjoy them!

Andesine

Since it's still gonna be a bit til I get the next page for SUR out, how about some random facts on Andesine that no one asked for. But I was kinda nerding out about her in my discord server so thought I'd share some of my ideas for the fusion between Jasper and Spinel and why I chose to name them after this stone in particular, as well as some real world facts about the stone itself

Andesine is a plagioclase feldspar with a composition between that of oligoclase and labradorite.. Its bold colors and warm energy are believed to make andesine a stress-relieving, grounding stone that melts your worries away.

*Kinda fits 2 certain gems we all know and love in the SU fandom eh? Since I'm pretty sure it's sorta implied Jasper and Spinel hate themselves, or at least blame themselves for not realizing Pinks' plan when she abandoned them in the garden (Spinel) or when she was planning to fake her own shattering (Jasper)

Also being left behind, even though both are the most perfect of gems, that a Gem could be. And even then they weren't good enough for Pink to wanna keep them around etc.

*I've always wanted to write a fusion that's meant to sorta be an in-between of Malachite (the physical manifestation of what a toxic relationship would look like as a character)

And Garnet (The Physical manifestation of what a healthy, loving relationship looks like)

And, yeah. That's basically what Andesine is supposed to be like. Because I feel like both Jasper and Spinel have the ability to heal from their trauma, and maybe even help each other find more healthier ways to deal with the pain, and confide in one another etc. (But also I feel like, especially in Jaspers case, both are way too stubborn to actually do it. At least for a very long time tbh) but- yeah.

Aghast makes a new friend in andesine, sort of
