“Most dangerous when cornered”

Very short diluc comic I cooked up off a doodle

[ghostofreach]

Had some thoughts

He’s hitting the sukuna pose because it’s cool but I’m not a jjk fan so I don’t know the significance of the pose itself. I just watch the fight scenes on youtube lmaooo

I can imagine diluc being really shit with a catalyst. They tried to make him use one early in his knight days but he could never get the hang of it….. so he picked up the bigass sword so he could protect his brother easier.

…oh my god it always leads back to the ragbros 💔💔

Hi! Do you have a Kokomi rediseng? I love your art, especially your ragbros (Im sorry if i miswrite it, english is not my first lenguage)

Hello!!!! I am so glad you like my art<3 I have drawn Kokomi before but I didn’t put much thought into an actual redesign so this was fun

[click for better quality]

Kokomi has a lot of very strong design elements that are all weighed down by genshins need to put all girls in booty shorts and thigh highs. I don’t think sexy/attractive designs are bad, but when it’s overused it is just so corny and it’s very obvious that they are just trying to sell characters

Surprisingly enough, I made an effort to ground her design. I originally wanted to go for a more “divine” look before deciding to make her look more “human”because it provides a meaningful distinction from the Shogun.

I put a lot of thought into how I could represent her roles as both a divine priestess and a tactician, and in the end, I went with a very fancy-looking kimono that has had its sleeves tied in the back. Almost like she had to roll them up in a hurry because she needs to decide the resistance’s next move.

I don’t usually share these but here’s some progress photos because I thought they were interesting

[ghostofreach]

this is what it looked like when you drew this 🙏 fire art 🔥

smug Diluc my beloved

Ghosto, GIVE US MELUSINE IN YOUR STYLE/LORE AND MY LIFE(my Navia) IS YOURS!

(From, a Melusine adorer.)

Anon I’m so sorry this rotted in my inbox for months💔

I think melusines should be waaaayy more diverse than they are in game. Sea slugs (and other sea creatures) are rad. Make more of em

Ingame they are kinda boring in my opinion tbh. Just safe mascot characters despite having awesome lore. These are whole other creatures than humans. Let them be just a little bit funky or weird

[ghostofreach]

“Listen to me!”

From his father, Diluc took a gentle hand and a hunger for justice. From his mother, he inherited a mischievous streak.

And rage.

Alright bro it is NOT that serious stop lookin at me like that😭 acting like it’s MY fault

Higher quality version below

I drew this in a fit of anger because I dropped my food on the floor. Pissed me off…

Uhh anyway I had to delete and reinstall the tumblr app and wtfff??? And new asks that have never showed up in my inbox before⁉️ so I’ll be workin on those👍

[ghostofreach]

THE BROTHERS.

UAAAAAUUAAAAAAURRRAASAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHGGGGGGGGGGFGGU

URRAAHHHHHHHGGHHHHHHH💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

It’s okay to be stressed and upset, but don’t give up. We need you now more than ever. We need each other.

any thoughts on emilie’s redesign?

when it comes to her official versus the concepts I think her official is actually very underrated. The skirt is so beautiful and is a lovely departure from typical genshin designs from the waist down. But the concept definitely wins with the color palette and the shirt. The skin tight boob-sock shirt is OLD!!!!

Right above is a design for her that I drew up about a week ago. I had to go through so many loopholes to find it because the file corrupted 💔💔 it is actually the most difficult design I have ever made and I’m not completely happy with it. She is so unbelievably hard to work with omg

Purple ver

Broken nose

Burnt tf outta my hand yesterday so diluc must experience pain.

When I’m in a making my already bad situation worse using my horrible communication skills competition and my opponent is diluc

[ghostofreach]

Umm wtf I forgot to post my Furina design ⁉️⁉️

As much as I would have loved to make her a sassy middle aged woman I think that making her look about 20 fits her narratively. Experiencing actual freedom in the “real world” for the first time

[ghostofreach]

hiii i just found your art bc i was searching for redesigns and yours are amazing <3

and i was just wondering how would you portray fontaine characters? especially those who carry guns/muskets

wonder no more

I actually have a very old redesign for clorinde already but I don’t like a lot of it anymore so I decided to change it a bit and go for a bit of an older approach because her role as a duelist made me think of an oldish (relatively speaking) look. Idk. So her appearance was mostly taken from mid to late 1600’s French military style.

I HAD to get rid of the miniskirt. It’s so unfitting for her i think it could have been given to a different character and worked well but💔 oh well. The hat is so so good tho they cooked with that.

No gun here for navia unfortunately but I think it applies here. this here is an older sketch I did. Went for a late 1800’s early 1900’s look with the suitdress. I wanted her to match the rest of the Spina di Rosula, as well as make her look a tad bit shady in a way. Not that she’s actually a deceitful person, but she deals with everything the Gardes can’t or won’t handle; she’s a bit of a hole-and-corner operation.

Og Chevy what the hell are you wearing please lock in and don’t wear a STRAPLESS TOP MAYBE???? I get you’re pretty lax for a militarywoman but damn.

I took inspo from a mix of late 1700’s and mid 1800’s military uniforms. The red reminds me of napoleon for some reason lmao.

Guns in Teyvat

I’m back on the worldbuilding grind🙏only reason I stopped was bc I ran out of ideas lmao. Love drawing guns

MONDSTADT

You will never find anyone with a firearm in Mondstadt. They simply don’t have the resources, money, or -most importantly- need for such an expensive product that is essentially useless. It is considered extremely rude to use a firearm when hunting as the sound scares animals away from other hunters in the area and their use is seen as “cheating” by the general population. Since they have such little presence in Mondstadt, there is little to no regulation on anything pertaining to guns (you really have to try to break the law). If you want to obtain one you must import the parts from Fontaine or Snezhnaya and assemble it yourself, and it’s a pain to buy them. If you are willing to go through all that trouble then either someone wants to kill you or you are out to kill somebody else. Probably both.

FONTAINE

Fontaine has mastered the art of mass production. Guns are produced by the hundreds (very impressive for such a centralized nation!) for the Fontanian military. They have been meticulously engineered for the utmost safety of the user. Fontanian firearms are prized for their lack of recoil, lack of tendency to jam, and innovative safety mechanisms, such as loaded chamber indicators and their revolutionary rifle decocker invention. This comes at the cost of power. Most Fontanian rifles and flintlocks/pistols take very low caliber ammunition and do not have the stopping power of larger firearms. They are much more suited for ceremonial use or intimidation as opposed to actual combat. There are a select few exceptions though. For example, Clorinde has had her twin flintlocks especially made for her, and they are known to take ammo she has to commission from an armory in western Fontaine.

SNEZHNAYA

If you were to ask anyone with a knowledge on the subject, they would tell you that Snezhnayan firearms are often exceedingly dangerous. They are known to jam, catch fire, and even explode. Hastily produced by independent armories contracted by the Fatui, they are low in cost and quality. In exchange, these guns are extremely powerful. The Ночной Ветер, for instance, is able to take cartridges of up to .50 (you can’t even purchase ammunition of this caliber outside of Snezhnaya). The gun laws and regulations in Snezhnaya are surprisingly strict, however they are not enforced. Fatui officers are more likely to take the 5000 mora offered by whomever they have tried to charge with illegal possession than actually arrest a lawbreaker. This has allowed an underground firearms market to thrive, especially among those who oppose the Tsaritsa.

Note: Snezhnayan firearms do not possess a safety. Once the gun is loaded, it is ready to shoot. Please exercise caution.

Double note: full auto guns don’t exist yet in my AU (subject to change based on what I think is cool) . I drew childe with an ak47 because it’s so him lmao.

INAZUMA

Inazuma’s strict laws have long forbade any type of firearm from being used, sold, or traded in the country to keep the nation in its eternal state. They have often been seen as useless foreign inventions that make the user weak by forcing them to rely on guns. Guns are also seen by some to violate the strict honor code that many Inazumans live by. Not even gangs or delinquents will use them.

SUMERU

Sumeru has outlawed any weapons that the Mahamatras deem to pose a danger to the preservation of knowledge. Surprisingly, there is little to no pushback on this ban. Those who reside in the desert find that grains of sand clog the inner mechanisms of guns, rendering them useless and forest dwellers dislike firearms for many of the same reasons Mondstadters do. The Corps don’t have trouble with smuggling when it comes to Sumeru natives or tourists, but they keep a watchful eye over the Fatui diplomats, occasionally requiring a search, as their presence often heralds political maneuvering rather than genuine interest in Sumeru’s knowledge. Evidence of this can often be found in the remains of crime scenes, weapons tend to be left in the riverbanks of the forest, and though exceptionally uncommon, there have been reports of firearms bearing Fatui insignias being uncovered underneath muddy outcrops by riverbanks. Though this is all coincidence, of course. It must have been a rouge terroist from Fontaine.

Other notes

I mentioned this previously, but guns and ammo are SUPER EXPENSIVE. The average person would never be able to afford/maintain one.

Guns are extremely difficult to use with a vision. Unless you have your gun created for you by a specialty armory, you won’t be able to channel elemental energy through one.

On the other hand, Guns are very easy to counter if you have a vision or a delusion due to the fact that they require many small, intricate parts working together perfectly to fire. Whether through making the metal brittle with frost or softening it with flame, it’s very easy to neutralize a gun. Best to keep them out of active combat. Swords, bows, and catalysts are much more effective thanks to their simplicity. It’s a lot harder to stop a giant hunk of metal hurling towards you than freezing a gun.

Um. I did not mean for this post to be as much of a yap fest as it was. Lmk if I was confusing or if you have questions I love talking to people 🙏🙏

[ghostofreach]

OMG MY WIFE???!!

Arlecchino is one of my FAVVVSS (alongside Diluc ofc…)

could we please get a more clear/full body of her? 🙏 I wanna see ur fire design for her cuz I KNOW it goes hard

Hello!!!!! Idk why I didn’t see this but here you go now!!!! These are some colored shots from the original comic and an original doodle from when I was drafting some ideas. I will probably update it eventually I just made this for the comic.

I want to focus on that last comment rn so another yap fest is in session🤑🤑🤑

This is less of a redesign and more of a tonal shift in her design because her role slightly changes in my rewrite/au (I still don’t know what to call this lmao) she is still “father” of course, but she is also actively trying to manipulate/sabotage her fellow harbingers. (not that shes trying to take down the fatui out of the goodness in her heart, she just works for herself only and sees her colleagues as stepping stones for her true goal (not yet known)) To do this, she has created a ‘surveillance system’ in teyvat comprised of multiple ‘children’ and fatui informants. This is not unlike the information network that Diluc, Yelan, etc. are apart of. In fact, they are competing forces.

She retains some of the clever hidden “x”s from her original design, but I gave her a new eye motif that plays well with the diamonds that are present in the rest of her design.

She looks older because I SAID SOO!!! (also kind of adds a maternal feel) I ❤️ age diversity
