Mikal reference sheet that Tumblr is also going to annihilate the quality of 😭

Didn’t redesign him much, only added very small changes such as his cheeks being slightly rounded instead of a super sharp edge like before, the red stripe on his vest, and changing the shape+size of his ring.

Tumblr is definitely going to mess up the quality of the image 😭

Anyways, I’ve redesigned Anthony, and made a reference sheet of it, I included everything I could remember from the color and lineart of his speech bubble, the shapes that make up his body, his weapon, his scars, his blood and tears colors, etc. that way I don’t have to go looking through my file to find these and could just use his reference sheet 😅

As for his redesign, I mostly wanted him to look more butterfly-like, as that is going to be his symbol. His mother is also an insect, yet his old design didn’t portray many signs of his lineage. The reason why his symbol is a butterfly, is sort of like “delicate but dangerous”. To not underestimate something that at first seems harmless/weak. The type of butterfly he’s somewhat based off of -a red spotted purple butterfly- is known for mimicking the appearance of a poisonous butterfly. Why I chose a butterfly that only mimics a poisonous butterfly is because that’s what Anthony has been doing his whole life. Pretending, mimicking either as a human or an incarnate, less his hybrid heritage be discovered and he’s inevitably killed.

Dumb-

Instagram completely annihilated the quality so hopefully Tumblr is better 😔

Okay, a basic explanation of Cyruses new lore because I’m currently too lazy to edit the posts- it’s also 3 in the morning, so my words probably aren’t going to sound very…elegant? 😔 intelligent?

While the events that occurred are the same. Cyruses mentality is different. Having been raised in an abusive environment for the majority of his life, he’s grown up believing that the form of “love” he experiences is what love truly is. The forced intimacy from his grandfather and husband, the control, and the shame of those relationships. He completely believes this is normal and has been conditioned to believe that there is something wrong with himself for wanting better.

So the main difference is that Cyrus no longer seeks to achieve love. But that he must learn to love himself so he can truly experience real love. The change overall fits much better with his character arc and is a bit more nuanced.

Okay- updated Cyruses lore, while most of the stuff I said isn’t outdated- the context is. So…yeah 😭 I gave him more trauma-

New character. Cyruses mother. Incarnate of renascence. No idea what her name is, so if you want, you can comment some suggestions.

Bleghhf I should NOT type when I’m sleep deprived- I write the most cringe things-

Comic page practice drawings. These are just short clips of lore. I seem to be better at drawing Action scenes than any other kind of scene 😔 so these were the best practice drawings.

I don’t know if I’ll make a comic/webtoon someday? It probably won’t be for a while since I’m still writing the story, and the character designs are often changed within a few months 😭

How the frick do I access drafts of posts- 💀

Edit: why do I have to go to my profile to find it- shouldn’t it be in the actual “create a post” thing-

Pinned Butterfly

Anthony isn’t exactly a butterfly, but if he were an insect like a large chunk of his family, the insect he would be is a butterfly. His wing patterns were also designed after butterfly wings.

Goofy aaa doodles of characters I haven’t drawn in a while-

Yea! Sure go ahead! :D!

The finished design of Vichelizaphael (right) and a “new” character named “Julius Nautl” Incarnate of Cyberspace” and Council Member #11. Julius isn’t actually a completely new character as I had written his character for years, but only now decided to give him a design. I also altered his lore slightly to make him into a completely different species as he used to be human.

In my lore, there are a select few Incarnates (the new name of “Guardians) that are part of a council. I’ve only designed 8 of them so far and here they are
