Color keys I painted for the "Go Home, Gwen" sequence in Across the Spiderverse. The direction I was given was to make Miguel look as menacing as possible!

Some early development paintings I did for the opening of Across the Spiderverse. This was early 2020, before vulture had been designed, beige the style had been developed, before a lot of stuff. Included some sketches and alts here too.

the sheer amount of trauma gwen has gone through compared to the other characters (that we know of) in protocol so far is crazy like in archives they were all kind of dealing with the whole worm situation in season one (martin did get locked in his flat for two weeks and the others didn’t) BUT it was still a threat they were all generally aware of and affected by. GWEN on the other hand has so far had to deal with fucking mr bonzo, learning that she might be indirectly responsible for a gruesome murder, getting chased down by a tattoo gun-wielding fear avatar-thing?? AND is now getting terrorized by [ERROR] apparently and we’re ONLY 21 episodes in. meanwhile sam celia and alice are dealing with mild anomalies like ooooh spooky cases weird drowning person magnus institute oooh!! gwen is in the TRENCHES dude give a girl a break

Sometimes I'm like "my Gwiles posts aren't as popular as they used to be that's cuz no one is in the mood for Spiderverse anymore" and then I see the rest of Gwiles posts in the tag and how many notes they have and I realize that there are still people in the mood for Spiderverse but I just lost a lot of Spiderverse mutuals when I was in my DreamWorks Trolls era

Ekko & Miles Morales are in the same category of character: Young, hyper-intelligent black boys being undeservedly put through the ringer while also having crushes on trans girls with brightly-coloured hair & severe daddy issues.

I wasn't going to do gwencelot in my "Post return but with King Regent Merlin" because I wanted to explore gwen feeling on Arthur and Lancelot while she lived most of her life without them and married Leon but now that I think about it.

Like Gwen/Leon/Lancelot could be quite a funny ship lmao Like, yeah Arthur is getting with that old man (Merlin), Gwaine is thirsty over his old man (Perceval, maybe idk yet) but here you have Lancelot who sandwiched between two older (like 80 years old in mind) people sjdbshsbvs oh he is NOT coming out of that bedroom in one piece.

[bisexualmultifandommess]

The idea of a future AU where Merlin and Leon lived together throughout the years after reuniting and eventually fall in love but obviously the knights, Gwen and Arthur don’t know that when they come back so are absolutely baffled when Merlin just kisses Leon in front of everyone randomly like it’s second nature to him and neither of them seem to notice the others staring at them in shock.

gwen is very fun to doodle lol

Not the Great Coffee Incident of 2024

Miguel meets Miles for the first time. These are some of my favorite color keys I painted while working on Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse!

To the characters we make that are women:

I love you. You deserve to be wrong and right and face the consequences of being either one.

be ugly or pretty, without it being ensconced with another character's development, i hope you hate and love things, and there's not a moral superiority there within the conflict.

I hope the things you care about are specific and personal, with genuine reasons that arent what's simply expected of your role in a character.

I hope your attractiveness in body and mind isn't just a character trait that just happens to make people gravitate to you. I hope you initiate attractiveness, be aware of it and take advantage of it when you decide to.

I hope you are written with your own intentions and selfishness, even if those intentions are selfless.

I hope you make mistakes and struggle in how to fix them, whether it be bc of the inward self or the feelings of others.

Okay guys, hear me out:

Sea Serpent Hobie!!!

Sea Serpent Hobie who sinks any superyachts he comes across!

Sea Serpent Hobie who uses harpoon spears meant to kill him as piercings! And old anchor chains as jewelry!

Sea Serpent Hobie who attacks big commercial fishing boats that are destroying the ecosystem by overfishing

But also benign Sea Serpent Hobie, who aids those lost at sea!

Who helps smaller local fishing buisnesses with sustainable fishing

Who looks out for this small fishing community and in return they warn him whenever hunters show up in the area!

Sea Serpent Hobie who is huge but still manages to hide perfectly in the kelp forests!

Who has bioluminescence and uses it both to terrify enemies and as a way to calm down people in distress, as a way for him to signal goodwill - and to show off when he feels like it!

Who can change his pigmentation similarly to octopi to communicate his mood and feelings! Or just to blend in with his surroundings (also as a nod to the way he changes filters in the movie!)

Sea Serpent Hobie who's frequently seen swimming with whale pods- Orcas being his favourites to hang out with (they sometimes go on yacht sinking trips together)

Sea Serpent Hobie who likes to give people a show and will show off by breaching right next to unsuspecting boats

DO YOU SEE MY VISION?!??

SEA SERPENT HOBIE!!!!!!💙💙💙

alexus (her realtor, yknow the only person gwen knows): you already moved in? isn't the roof still leaking? gwen: um... yes and yes. alexus: want me to call my roof guy? he'll do it for free if i threaten to tell his wife that he flirted with me. gwen: oh, would you? that would be so nice. yes please (^:

Gwen must tell Miles that she loves him in BTSV or I will eat my favourite boots. Apology isn't enough for me she NEEDS TO TELL HIM HE HEEDS TO KNOW SHE HAS TO FINALLY GET IT OUT OF HER SYSTEM HE THINKS SHE DOESN'T LOVE HIM AND SHE HAS BEEN HOLDING THIS IN FOR TOO LONG
