Yeah! Now there’s a proper Fallen Angel! (Patreon)
Also ft. some of the mid-transformation design sketches:
Took a few wing iterations to decide how I wanted the swirls to appear - I do still like them appearing from under a tuft of feathers, as well as the double-lined look, but even simple single-line looks nice :)
I considered a “bleeding” heart at first, red and slashed, but I think an “over-flowing” pink heart is more accurate to their theme! It looks ever-so-slightly less gruesome as well haha
They’re the (Fallen) Angel of Desires! Not like Eros or Cupid, not that specific, just Desires in general - not needs but Wants. Not of hunger, more like a craving for a familiar food; not of sleep but of comfort; not of belonging but of company - impulses and snap decisions, positive and negative :)
I also considered some asymmetrical design elements like a single rattail to the stage left-
Or keeping two wings still but set to one side, but in the end I liked the symmetrical look better
Some notes about the goop! The hole can sometimes overflow since it’s not very deep, dripping is normal, but it just dissipates off the skin usually. The goop form is kind of similar to crying - it’s a release of some Big Emotion but with the entire body rather than flushed out through the tear ducts, so crying is unusual during that time! It’s much more common for everything except the eyes to be dripping, including hair and glasses haha
#Doodles#Hehe - Fallen (asleep) Angel#Finally got the design! Nice!#Needed some feathers and to drop some of the fabric haha#I thought the double straps were a bit busy but! There can still be two - just laid over each other at the elbow#So they can still be separated out and have two over the shoulders and two at the mid-arm - but they mostly lie at the latter!#The feathers were fun too haha#I'm still deciding a colour palette but I'm thinking a gold and brown with the pop of red and pink :) I don't have a brown-palette sona yet!#Gold-white feathers off the arms would look nice I think haha#The little flap-flaps hehe ♪ Fantasy stim#Reminds me of a recent Would You Rather I played with the Reds - would you rather have a tail or wings? I chose wings!#Not to fly just to flap about haha#Honestly if anything it's a surprise it took me this long to make a cherub/angelsona! I've always loved angels#I guess designing something that's a proper extension of Me while still being recognizably Other can be difficult haha#Thus the Fallen aspect >:3c Those can be a bit of anything hehe#Anyhow :) I think I'm pleased with them for now! Good to have in the back pocket
