Jango: Have you been assaulted by forces of a supernatural persuasion?

Henry: Haunted by ghosts, specters, spirits, and various psychic phenomenon?

Ace: Are you at your wits end? Does it feel like nobody is on your side? That nobody believes you?

Percival: Then you need us in your corner!

Jango/Henry/Ace/Percival: Call Occultworks today!

...Yeah, so, Ghostbusters. That's the joke. Cause I finally actually sat down and watched the original movies. Since there's an official Ghostbusters TTRPG, I'm tempted to build the four of them characters in the system.

And for fun, I used the Ben 10 Omniverse art style - which makes this a very weird mix of different hyper-fixations, lol...

[jacscorner]

Warmed up with these quick doodles; I didn't care for Omniverse's art style shift, but after I gave the show a proper chance, it grew on me and now I really like it. So tried to draw my OCs in the style

(In order: Jango, Henry, Jam, Ace, Clover, and Percival)

[jacscorner]

Intense training so she can pilot Megas, or has she gone native...?

[jacscorner]

Clover: When I asked to be warmed up, this wasn't what I meant...

Jam: Should've been more specific.

[jacscorner]

"Finishing Move - 'Afterburner Kick' engaged."

Henry smirks as he prepares his mech and sends down a blazing kick down from the heavens to finish the fight.

Another Medabot & Pokemon crossover; this time, Hilda & Emboar.

This was much easier than how I did Ethan & Meganium. For one thing, Emboar's more humanoid design gave me a much easier time figuring out what I wanted to do; a somewhat rounder, bulkier bot with a flamethrower strapped to one arm.

I'm sure the default strategy with Fullhog is to just march forward, blow fire, and just wait for the opponent to overheat, lol.

So, what if Pokemon Characters were in Medabots?

I feel a little bad not giving Ethan some kind of interesting outfit or anything to fit Medabots' aesthetic, but I'd argue they already fit. Though I guess I could have done like this one artist did and put him in a school uniform or something...

Anyway, I thought it'd be fun to draw more robots and since Medabots is a big influence on how I design my own bots, I thought I'd try and design my own and base them off of Pokemon the characters use.

And Meganium was...a PAINFUL choice...

Meganium doesn't have a human-shape design like Lucario or Hitmonchan or even Garchomp. So I leaned into its stats and designed a sort-of bulky, armored bot with a shield. Probably can pull some Captain American shenanigans with some advance calculations going on in its head. I'm sure some would think a Medabot with no guns or anything is at a severe disadvantage, but that confidence quickly vanishes when Shielder races through the bullets and punches their lights out.

Though, in hindsight, maybe I should've used the flower frill as the design for the shield or something.

As Henry practices magic within the school of stone, Jango prepares to break into a snake cult's lair.

This started as me just wanting to doodle Jango in his Space Captain uniform and it sort of tumbled into me designing a uniform for his bridge crew. Couldn't include all the bridge bunnies, but got in three girls and giving a good view of the uniform at some nice angles.

I'm sure they get to wear different colored ties.

Come to think of it, I'm sure THEY wear special, color coded uniforms, but these navy outfits are for the other women on his ship. Maybe I should work on that later...

And this is why I'm not working at DC Comics.

Jokes aside, I think it's a shame that DC Comics is cut up into small fiefdoms that segments its world. It makes sense, keep the Batman Characters in Gotham, keep the Superman characters in Metropolis, and so on and so forth so nobody steps on anybody's toes. But then we can't have books where Sojourner can team up with Starfire and go on a galactic road trip busting bad guys.

Or having two alien hotties having a twerk off.

So a friend asked me to help him with some Adventure Time OC designs. I was pretty satisfied with them, so thought I'd try to work on the style a little more. Not quite right, my ears are too big, but I think I did a good job with Leigh in her barbarian outfit.

I remember not being able to get it right in my teens. I think I was probably trying too hard to get it right and my brain couldn't adapt. But my years of practicing looser, rubberhose art has helped me get the look down a bit better.

"Gundog! Open Fire!"

Johvian Space under attack by an unknown threat, Jango Fox flies the Gundog to Io, the capital of the Jupiter Colonies, to fight his way to the heart of the enemy threat, with Leigh Bishop being his Operator.

Complete with radical new color scheme since the last time I drew the Gundog and a cockpit shot.

Last, but not least; Clover.

Name: Clover Fields

Age: 22

Ethnicity: African-American

Hair/Eye Color: Black & White/Light-Brown

Personality: The nicest word for Clover is 'ditz'. She's not the sharpest tool in the shed, and often mixes up the simplest things. But she's not stupid - she's actually quite smart. It's just that she's a little naive, a bit short sighted, and even a bit spoiled. Not a spoiled brat though - she's too nice and sweet for that.

Bio: Daughter of a famous movie actress and successful scriptwriter, Clover was raised primarily by her mother with a small but noticeable silver spoon in her mouth. Her mother was a little overly protective, so Clover spent much of her early childhood in a little bubble until her grandmother was talked into putting Clover in public school.

Clover learned the hard way that kids can be very mean. But, for better or worse, she never stopped trying to make friends with others and always wanted to see the best in people. Eventually, her patience lead her to making friends with Jamie-Lynn and the rest, as they say, is history.

Occupation: Part-Time Waitress, Full-Time Accountant

Fun Facts

1. Clover got her back tattoo in solidarity with Jam and her scars. She cried like a baby through most of it, but Jam appreciated it all the same.

2. She has a couple of degrees, debatable the most out of most of my OCs. She's a reconnaissance woman who has doubled in multiple fields - it's just that you wouldn't expect the airhead to have a business degree.

3. Her love language is cooking, so she's always passing around snacks to her friends and family when she can.

Ace Valentine is up next in my main OC lineup.

Name: Albert 'Ace' Valentine

Age: 25

Ethnicity: African-American

Hair/Eye Color: Blond/Amber

Personality: Confident, suave, and cool. Ace projects these traits and has a big case of imposter syndrome. While he can typically keep this persona going, as is the person Ace wants you to see, he can be rather skittish at times and is easy to make nervous. While not a nervous wreck, he does have his moments of fear gripping him and not letting go, but once he finds his focus, he can be the cool guy he knows he can be.

Bio: Ace, born Albert, was your standard shy kid on the playground. Quiet, geeky, stuck to themselves most of the time. He was someone that most people didn't notice. It wasn't until he met his Grandfather until he learned some sense of confidence as he tries to be the kind of guy his grandpa was. And while it doesn't always work out for him, it has given him the confidence to come out of his shell and strut his stuff.

Though, one could argue that trying to live up to such a legacy has given Ace a bad case of imposter syndrome, as he always feels like he's in the shadow of his Grandpa Lou. While it gives him strength, it also gives him anxiety over not being able to live up to his expectations - seemingly not understanding that his Grandpa would want him to just be the best man he can be as defined by Ace himself and not him or anyone else.

Occupation: Professional Pilot

Fun Facts

1. He is arguably the best pilot of my OCs, having earned his nickname of 'Ace' multiple times over. He gets very embarrassed when anyone uses his real name and quite prefers his nickname.

2. He's profession at gunspinning and his grandfather even taught him how to shoot and handle handguns - with his preference leaning towards revolvers.

3. He used to need glasses as a kid. He got corrective surgery later.

[jacscorner]

The next of my main OCs; Jamie-Lynn Fox, but everyone calls her 'Jam'.

Name: Jamie-Lynn "Jam" Fox

Age: 23

Ethnicity: African-American/Caribbean Descent

Hair/Eye Color: Black/Dark-Green

Personality: Jam seems to have two moods; aloof and nonchalant and hot blooded and crabby. Normally, Jam is actually rather calm and cool-headed (especially when in her element), but she has a very short fuse and it doesn't take much to set her off. Aside of Jam that is often not shown, however, is her deep-rooted insecurities that bubble up when she doesn't have a jacket on - or anything that covers most of her upper body (more specifically, the scars on her upper back).

Bio: Growing up with Jango as his half-sister, the two grew up to be rather close. She was much more shy and nervous as a child. It didn't help that she spent a good few years of her early childhood being kowtowed by her mother, Jennifer Fox (now Wheeler post the divorce). Her abuse was done privately and behind closed doors, but when it was brought to the light with the intervention of her half-brother, it was the first step to Jamie-Lynn's metamorphosis into the tough and tumble tomboy.

When she grew up, she's eventually grow close to her father's brother, Roger Fox, who introduced Jam to her love for cars, motorcycles, and grease. She spent every summer she could working in his garage and he even took her on as an apprentice. After college and hearing the news of her uncle's passing, she was included in his will and she inherited his mechanic shop.

Occupation: Mechanic

Fun Facts

1. She has a collection of leather jackets. She never goes anywhere without at least one. They act as a security blanket for her.

2. While her brother is a boxing enthusiast, Jam has been a wrestling fan for a long time and has crafted multiple masked sonas.

3. She prefers to be called 'Jam'. She only likes to be called by her full name in a professional setting - and even then, it's more like a tolerance. There are very few people she feels comfortable with being called by her full name.

Another ref sheet for another OC of mine, Henry Vaughan.

Name: Henry Vaughan

Age: 25

Ethnicity: African-American

Hair/Eye Color: Gray

Personality: Moody, pessimistic, and lazy; these words perfectly describe the dour and gloomy Henry. He tends to have a sour attitude about most things - not that he cannot enjoy things, but that he tends to look at things in a negative light. A 'glass half empty' kind of guy most of the time. But when Henry is having a good time, you'll know.

Bio: While Henry doesn't know his birth parents, he has a very good relationship with the couple who adopted him; Frederick & Betty Vaughan. Being adopted shortly after he was born, Henry has mostly grown up in a fairly stable environment - save for outside influences, like his best friend Jango. Surely without his friends, he'd live a boring, dull life and he'd be even more bored than he is...

Occupation: Freelance Writer

Fun Facts

1. Henry is consistently the tallest of my OCs, if not up there, but around 6'0 or 6'3. His parents are visually opposite to him; being a loving Caucasian couple who are both on the shorter end of 5'0 and 5'3. Henry has never questioned he was adopted, but has never bothered to try and look into his birth parents. (Though it'd hopefully explain the gray hair.)

2. Is a master card shark and is an expert at most traditional playing card games. Could possibly live off of 'professional poker playing' if he really had to. Or wanted to. He always has a deck of cards on him.

3. Is a smoker. Don't worry, he's a cartoon character, so he'll be fine~

A proper reference sheet of my OC, Jango Fox.

Name: Jango Fox

Age: 25

Ethnicity: African-American/Caribbean Descent

Hair/Eye Color: Black/Green & Silver

Personality: Laid back & carefree, Jango walks through life with a smile on his face. It's hard to upset him and rare to see him frustrated since he prefers to go with the flow of things. He firmly believes that a positive attitude, even when things are dire and tough, is key to getting through life. He loves to laugh and crack jokes; though, whether they're good or not depends on who you ask...

Bio: Jango grew up always traveling because of his father, a pilot, and was able to meet people around the world and see many people. For better and worse, that included his former stepmother & eventually his his half-sister, Jamie-Lynn. Him and his father bonded over these various family trips and adventures, even if in later years, Jango learned that his father, Horace, wasn't the best person in the world...

Regardless of his inspirations, Jango took some of his better qualities to heart and does his best to be...well, maybe 'upstanding' isn't the best word for it, but at least find some kind of balance between being a gentleman and being a thrill seeking adventurer and lover of (several) people.

Occupation: Artist

Fun Facts

1. His father, despite his faults, inspired Jango to go to Flight School and get his pilot's license (same for Henry & Ace).

2. Is technically a professional boxer and stays in shape regularly. He doesn't fight often, but it can make for a great excuse to travel.

3. Jango's mother, Serenity, died during childbirth. He has no documents or anything about her...
