i've never seen anyone try and incorporate Astral's ... well, i interpret them a little as scars, a little as 'missing pieces', but either way they are intentional and in specific spots, so- they're part of his design

i made human Astral vitiligo to keep that design aspect in mind :] i also added teal hair shrimpy things since he looked a little bald without it, plus... it's yugioh. he deserves a little more funky protag hair than a plain mohawk

swap au came up as a result of me sharing this, so, i drew some stuff with that in mind. feat. scratchy doodles of @gizmocreates swap Yuma

got inspired by another swap au to post my own take on it publicly :)

featuring a bit of a… different… spirit guide… but a not entirely different dynamic, it seems.

Sorry this sat in my inbox for a sec I felt just like drawing them out lol

I always wanna work on this au but never do
