in keeping in line with the rest of the qsmp designs i've done, i referenced a lot of british specific in her design

for starters, their clothes are inspired by british punk. more specifically, how vivienne westwood incorporated a very well-constructed design with punk elements !! both cus the punk movement started in the uk and westwood being an english designer. i also based the clothes off of tennant from r1999 since i love her clothing silhouette. also the punk movement started off as a counter-culture movement, which fits the theme of a chaos god quite well !!!

for the chaos elements, the inside of their coat is a fraser spiral illusion, which was made by a british psychologist. it also resembles the plaid in a lot of punk fashion which is a bonus too! she also has an atom charm in reference to the father of atomic theory being british and the idea that 2 objects can phase through each other if their atoms pass through each other :) kinda like no-clipping in real life. the wires around them are also supposed to represent computers, but more specifically the manchester baby, the first electronic stored-program computer ever made

and some fun details is that they mirror my q!ash design. both of them have something hanging from the right side of their hip, as well as flared pants. the little screen on their face is also both a nod to the manchester baby as well as to mirror ash. it's cute i think!

i've recently been inspired by how much thought + care goes into the details of a bunch of gacha games and i decided to try my hand at it !!!

in terms of silhouette, i tried to keep in line with this dictator!ash design by frizzmcwizz, but adding more indo-western influences it since ash is clearly very proud of his culture, as well as staying consistent with qsmp as a whole

in terms of what he's wearing, he's wearing a sherwani, a kashmir shawl, with pants inspired by this suit from rahul mishra. he's also wearing some mojaris as well !!!

once again, i tried to incorporate polish culture into his design. a lot of the traditional polish clothing i could find were polish folk costumes, and since i want to try and make my designs (somewhat) wearable, i decided to keep the general elements of ewron's minecraft skin but adding a bit of of the elements i noticed in male polish folk costumes :) most notably the puffy sleeves, pants, and black boots i saw a lot

but i can't lie and say i wasn't excited to incorporate some of the wonderful embroidery in polish clothing to his outfit! a lot of the designs were inspired by this veil i found on pinterest, and i thought adding it to the inside of his cape really highlighted the red portions, which really contrasts with the white which i hope gives off an intimidating silhouette which fits in with him saying he's "ash's blade"

also i had to add some red panda elements LOL i gave him a haircut that would really round his face, similar to how red pandas have a round face. i also gave him hair inspired by alysa liu to mimic the rings of a red panda's tail

and last as a little fun detail, i added some hair clips to look like the flag of poland 🇵🇱
