Made proper references for my Storch and Kolibri OCs. Also gave them proper names, Mors and Clover!

They are cops who are hunting for spies (diversity loss) but are also gay and nerds who like to read (diversity win)

Giovanna Concept Art

Giovanna's concept art! Translation notes and image ids below the cut.

Translation Notes:

"Mineral Maniac" could also have been "Mineral Mania".

"Pre-game, fatigued" was a little ambiguous because the kanji at the end wasn't really a word, but the character had a potential meaning of "to become fatigued", so I just went with that.

"100% bedhead" was literally "all bedhead" or "complete bedhead."

All the sound effects were swapped out for more English-sounding ones. The "YAAAWN" was "Fwahh", the "SHING" was "PAAA", and the "Mnn" was "Naa".

"For the sake of research, the chosen dyes were applied..." was a little hard to parse and I feel like I might have missed some of the meaning. Literally it seemed something more like "for the good of research, the right/right-hand dyes were used on..."

"Boots from school for ease of mining" was also kind of weird, might have been saying something more like "cheap school mining boots [to be used for mining]"

The "Gal Who Studies the Playing Field" heading was literally something like "Game-Board Studying Guy [gender neutral]".

The "Gal Who Studies the Playing Field" heading and the same heading but with "Alternate" attached seem to kind of be swapped, but that was how it was on the original page, so I left it.

Image Id:

[id: Two pages of concept art from the Triangle Strategy artbook centered around Giovanna. The first page has a colored and uncolored version of her canon portrait, as well as a designer's note that reads, "The contrast between Giovanna's soft, fluffy design and the sharpness of the rock is really an appealing point of contrast, isn't it? (Rina Yoshiura)".

The second page has several drawings of Giovanna, most of which highlight her sleepiness or her messy outfit. She's labeled "Mineral Maniac", and her necklace has a note that reads, "The stone around her neck is the first one she ever found." She holds a shining gem with a "SHING…" sound effect. One sleepy drawing is labeled "Pre-game, fatigued". By her hair on another drawing is a note that says, "True color is blonde, messy parts are dyed sections." A note pointing to her lab coat reads, "For the sake of research, the chosen dyes are applied to the clothes and hair". She is noted to have large gloves and large boots as well as a pair of magnifying glasses with lenses that can be lifted and lowered. Another note explains that she "wears a lab coat over her underclothes". Next to a sleepy and disgruntled drawing there is some dialogue that reads, "Mnn… What a hassle… I'll just put off whatever I don't want to do". Another drawing of her yawning has the caption "Always sleeping" and "100% bedhead".

The second half of the page is labeled "Gal Who Studies the Playing Field (Geologist?)" and "Gal Who Studies the Playing Field (Geologist) Alternate". There is a drawing of a much more severe version of Giovanna with dark hair and a scholar's outfit. Some details are pointed out, including some suspenders on the back of the outfit and a small ice axe and case of mining accessories that she wears on her hip. There is also a caption that reads, "Uses the first gemstone she found on her own as a brooch." Another note points to her boots and reads, "Boots from school for ease of mining". An illustrator's note at the bottom of the page reads, "Using the uptight-looking young woman on the lower half as a springboard, she eventually became an eccentric character who's completely absorbed in researching stones and wears a lab coat over her underthings. The colorful paints on her clothes are pigments extracted from the stones. (Urushihara Tatsuaki) /end id]

"GLITCHY" RED TAJIRI

Height: 6'2 Pronouns: He/It Home Region: Kanto Team: ????????, ??????, ?????????, ??????, ???????, ?????????

A disheveled man in a twisted realm who claims to be Red- yes, THE Red, despite bearing no resemblance in appearance or personality. He somehow seems to possess knowledge of things he shouldn't know, and an unnerving ability to do that which should be impossible. His body appears unstable, and though the same could be said of his behaviors... the odd man acts and talks as if he's an old friend of yours, and always seems relaxed around you- showing off his loud and passionate personality, and always bearing a Cheshire grin.

[Transcription of design notes and color hex values under the cut.]

Hair: #181418

Skin: #fbf3ef (main) + #c6b7d2 (veins/eyebags, multiply) + #76658c (blush) + #4291fe (airbrush overlay)

Neck bruised and veiny.

Eyes: #ffffff (sclera) + #ffffff, #ff0d00 (iris, red and SMALL amount of white)

NO SHADING. Don't outline iris!

Bluish mouth natural. (#605173, #3b3049)

Alt: red (#ff0d00)

Glitches (red/yellow/white) always visible on body, NOT CLOTHES. (Hidden for body ref)

How I do his glitches:

Use any method to make basic glitch effects of any color.

New clipping layer over glitches, set color layer effect. (Fill: #ff0d00)

Merge.

New clipping layer again, layer effect Hard Mix OR Color Burn Layer. Whichever looks best. (Fill: #ff0d00)

(If there's no #ffffff or #fff800, manually add lines and boxes to base layer of these colors.)

This should result in his distinct glitch colors of red/white/yellow/black.

Merge again

Clip onto glitched area (optional)

Set glitch layer as Glow Dodge-- or whatever gives the best looking effect. Pick with your heart!

Note for outfits:

ALT PALETTE (only for this outfit)

Yo.

Look, I'm not here to dick around with a buncha cryptic bullshit. I'd like to think I'm a pretty open book, yknow-

I just think that hiding this one would be really fucking funny. Trust me- you'll find out soon.

A lot sooner than you'd think.

General Note:

Details of these forms can vary based on circumstance. This is more like examples and a style guides than a concrete reference- I've tried to note every key part for each.

Hue over Red's body, not over amalgam: #ff0d00

Skin: #fbf3ef (main) + #c6b7d2 (veins/eyebags, multiply) + #76658c (blush) + #4291fe (airbrush overlay)

Hair: #181418

Eyes: #ffffff, #ff0d00

NO Shading!

Don't outline iris! "Animalistic" look in eyes.

Blood stains, multiply #900700

Mouth: #ff0d00

Amalgamated parts can be parts of anything summonable with the Old Man Glitch, use one of these palettes:

1: #76658c, #181418, #c6b7d2, #c8afa3

2: #ff0d00, #181418, #ffffff, #ffff00

Glitching is far more extreme in this form.

Unobscured gore for reference:

Bones, Flesh: #ffffff, #ff0d00, #a50800 Heart: #bd1a2a Liver: #5c1612 Spleen: #942f53 Intestines: #C6a88f, #d4ac96, #dabdac Pancreas: #c8b26c Diaphragm: #efdcdc Throat: #efdcdc, #c2a5b0 Lungs: #dc9ea3, #b16c72 Stomach: #d4ac96

Hey. That's private. :/

Here's these 3 also :]

[corvidsahoy]

finally sat down and forced myself to design them... everyone say hi to willow :]]]

[silvesi]

Fedsy alert! Magic-consuming vampire, whispers slayer, Potion n Plant Dude. Impulsive and emotionally driven but it's ok bc it's usually (??) for the right reasons.

Thought his wyld hunt was over after Zhaitan because said vampirism severed his connection to the dream, proceeded to get a baby dragon thrown at him. Shockingly good father figure to said dragon, likely as they both Eat People. Does NOT consider his boyfriend said dragons stepfather, as he was busy being dead for two years and it's honestly just not ideal :/

[hobgobbin]

FINALLY got to updating Verusa's ref, after [checks my files] almost 5 years. And we're still goin strong with his campaign babey !!!!!!

[pandoraarti]

name/alias : Philip Wise, the finger Snatcher, the vile Lord of the Wraiths, the god of torment and despair, King of the new gods/Pantheon.

gender : Male, he/him pronouns.

species : human ( former)  ghost/spirit (former) Wraith (former ) god (current)

age : 34 at time of death ( executed 1342) 715 (now)

sexuality : Aromantic/lithromantic (idk) (but in a relationship with Auryn , god of the coin flip)

birthday :6 /25 /1308

height : 6.1 (20.4 feet in god form)

weight : 167 lbs (55 tons in god form)

personality : a almost charming sadistic loving sociopath. animalistic stalking behavior.

Story : once a mortal man executed for heinous crimes. Philip wise's story did not end.  Regaining form in the afterlife as a spirit and occasionally going back to the world of living as a ghost, he continued to make a name for himself for 40 years. Until he eventually became a Wraith ( to be explained and talked about a different time), but instead of ending there... came back... but no longer as a being of the Mortal plane or even a descendant of it.

No, Philip wise was Reborn into a being of a higher status, a god. But not a pure one of heart... but one of torment and despair. He has somehow started a new reign of Gods but for now he keeps his status a secret settling only for Lord for now.

extra : collects the fingers of his victims and hangs them on key loops around his waist. Philip actually has a third form that he attained after ascendance into godhead, a female form with white hair that he uses to lead others astray. His sacred animal is a goat as well as it being his favorite meat to eat.

Out of all the things he have done to others to bring them closer to despair, he did not mean to curse the new reign of gods with the desire to bite ( leaving this generation to be called the red teeth gods ) (meaning their more likely to take a more destructive path)
