Fan art of @kianamaiartā€™s characters from I Donā€™t Want To Be A Magical Girl! (with glasses, ft misc glasses characters & two IDWTBAMG universe fan characters)
Iā€™ve been following this project from the start so itā€™s been great seeing interactions between the characters and how the fandom is so excited for it. ^^
I tried to draw the cast from memory and, while Miss seems a little different from canon, at least I got the dark hair roots and strands sticking out lol. But details aside theyā€™re all recognizable! Which means theyā€™re lovely designs that are unique from one anotherāœØ
Eclipseā€™s shades are a combination of his usual eye mask and the shades from this artwork, and Hoshiā€™s glasses are inspired by this one!šŸŒ’ā­ļø
Designsā€¦ (I donā€™t have a name for her yet but) the pigtails girlā€™s shapes are a combination of curves pointing downwards and curves pointing upwards. The idea ended up being that sheā€™s on Eclipse and Lady DeVoidā€™s side so (after reading this post by Kiana about how most of the characters had Aikaā€™s design as the springboard and are designed to complement eachother) I wanted her design to complement those twoā€™s, with some influence from Zira. I like that the strands of hair on her forehead and the shape around them mirror both Ziraā€™s hair and DeVoidā€™s horns haha. Plus, I was trying to figure out how to design her glasses and they ended up being kind of the inverse of Eclipseā€™s eye mask, which is very nice. Eclipse and DeVoid seem to be associated with sharp curves and circle shapes; maybe her outfit could be a lot fancierā€¦
As for what her role might be in the storyā€¦ I dunno, if she works with Eclipse and DeVoid, and Eclipse is all ~theatric and grand~ then maybe she could be likeā€¦ his assistantā€¦ or something? Who knows. Or, I say ā€œobserver from afarā€ so perhaps she actually gets along with Zira well and theyā€™d watch on the sidelines while Aika and Eclipse duke it outā€¦?
Eclipseā€¦ Moonā€¦ Umbraā€¦ man what if I just name the pigtails girl Yueshi (ęœˆé£Ÿ, lunar eclipse)(for both the moon motif that Zira and Eclipse have, and the darkness motif that Eclipse and DeVoid have haha)
Shooting star and telescope donā€™t feel quite right, but with the circular shapes and the lunar eclipse, I could kind of see her having some star trail motifs with her sweaterā€¦
I guess Umbra would be the same type of elf (? darkness/concept personified?) as Lady DeVoid but Iā€™m not sure haha. We donā€™t have much information on DeVoid other than the fact that she is darkness itself and that she lost most of her powers which she canā€™t remember how to use. Banished by a Star Guardian, revenge, recruiting Eclipse to help spread the darkness particles to destroy the Star Guardianā€¦ If she has a similar backstory to MLP:FIMā€™s Princess Luna then does that mean she was originally Aikaā€™s teammate or something? haha
About Umbraā€™s hairā€¦ (Feel free to correct me for any inaccuracies.) I think from the reference photos I was trying to draw box braids but got so focused on also making the braids look like moon phases that Iā€™m not sure if itā€™d still be box braids in the end? They seem more like cornrows now, at least for the side ones?
Here are some earlier versions of the OCs! and more rambling about designs

Well, initially I scribbled down Yueshi so I could experiment with values because I was thinking about how light-coloured pants draw the eye too much if the outfit or the top half of the character is darker. (Half way through she ended up looking like a IDWTBAMG character so I tried to match the proportions with Aikaā€™s turnaround.) But I suppose if thereā€™s enough contrast for the upper half (and IDWTBAMGā€™s stark black design style gives a lot of contrast) then it works out better. I think the combination of making Yueshiā€™s hair and the top half of her sweater black and the circle shape white worked out okay. Initially she had large round eyes so I tried giving her round glasses too but since she ended up being a fan character in the universe, it was too similar to Aika and Zira.
Umbraā€™s design kind of popped into my mind today so I tried to scribble it down and experimented with hairstyles. But green and purple are already associated with Zira, and that shade of lavender is more like Eclipse so I guess Iā€™ll fiddle around with her colour scheme more. Maybe thereā€™s not enough of the signature black there, and both could use some more details to match the level of details in the canon designsā€¦ (If Yueshi works under DeVoid then sheā€™d probably get a fancy outfit too.) Then again, Umbra is more like Miss in terms of detail so it seems sheā€™d be a background/supporting character or somethingā€¦šŸ¤”
(I canā€™t seem to escape the puffy sleeves/cone shape silhouettešŸ¤” Gotta diversify. Also, not sure if itā€™s ā€˜cause of the projectā€™s style or if I just really love circles in character design haha)

ā€œMore love triangles should end in polyamoryā€ wrong. The only valid end to a love triangle is to reveal that the odd man out has only been interested in the woman bc he was drawn to the unfertilized egg in her ovaries which would eventually become her daughter, who is his soulmate

Itā€™s ok to live for yourself, Itā€™s ok to cheat a little
Itā€™s ok to break it, itā€™s ok to be scared
Letā€™s bury this cowardly love here, letā€™s stop and forget this
Itā€™s easier to hate
I saw a post suggesting Undead Alice for Mikoto and thought that that would be a fun choice for him.

what would you name Louis' fanbase? šŸ‘€
Ooooā€¦ now thatā€™s a question, but I am not funny enough to pull this off.
I will accept any acronym for ā€˜peachā€™(/s) for obvious reasons, Blues cause itā€™s a football team and the colour of his eyes and I am simping on main on the daily ā€¦ OR
Iā€™ve always been partial to LT - eltee if you will. And eltees sounds like A Tease. So. šŸ’€šŸ’€

gender-affirming surgery is a months-long dark comedy. what the fuck do you mean you're charging me double for everything. what do you mean they itemize the bill by left and right ball. what the fuck.
