Bringing in the new year with another Heavenshine character design comparison and redraw, between the very first color design (2007), and the finalized design now (2023). I will eventually finish comparison-redraws for the other three mains, but the first two can be found here (Joy) and here (Obsidian)!

The first drawing of Breccan was a lazy scribble from 2006, and his design didn't change at all between then and the one pictured here, so I figured I'd go with the better option. After all, tweaking this pose worked a lot better for showcasing his oh so very, uh...sociable traits. In case you don't know any sign language, he's calling everyone who looks at him an asshole. While also flipping them off. That last part's obvious, of course, but either way, I sincerely apologize for his, um. Everything.

Perhaps obviously, Breccan hasn't changed much in appearance, and certainly not in aesthetics. Or his overall...general unpleasantness. In fact, aside from the fleshed-out backstory (and fashion tweaks for my own sanity's sake), the only major change I made for him was how much he values other people. Whether that valuation is 'not much' or 'very much', though, I'll leave up for debate. ;]

Also don't let the red eyes fool you, he's got contacts in to hide his cute baby-blues~ >:3c

Ben will be next, and boy howdy, did I not draw that poor boi very much! I think he didn't get a proper design page until like...2008, and it seems I, uh...never even posted it online? And looking at it again with the worst cringe ever, I almost certainly never will! :D
