Making Humanoids Less Human

I did make a small post on this, but now I've got the art for a much bigger and more detailed post! so here we go.

I had several anonymous asks that all came in quick succession weeks ago. Every single one of them was basically just a variation on "how would you take (typically humanoid) fantasy being, and make them look less human?"

This blog does not exist for me to just give people original designs for free, my goal is to show off my own personal thoughts about fantasy design and help people figure out how to adjust their own designs to fit their vision better. That means when people ask me questions about how to do something, I want to give them things to think about so they can come to their own conclusion. I don't mind making original designs to illustrate concepts, but a whole flood of "show me how to make this specific thing look different" all at once like that was too much. I'm not answering them all individually, it's just not what I want to do.

But what I can do is show my own thoughts and ideas about how to take any fantasy design and push it further away from "human", and you all can look at my ideas and figure out your own way to do things!

So here are the main 4 methods I've come up with to make humanoids look less human.

(image description: a simplified drawing of a humanoid face surrounded by four altered versions of the same face. clockwise starting from the top left, they are:

Speculative, drawn as a cat person. Additive, drawn with horns, pointy ears, sharp teeth, and a second pair of eyes. Subtractive, drawn with blank eyes, no nose, and no eyebrows. Exaggerative, drawn with a long face and huge eyes, as well as a wide mouth, narrow nose, and big ears.

end description)

I am personally a fan of the speculative route, which means exploring an alternate root of evolution to create a new design. Through this method, I've created monkey elves, frog goblins, and pig orcs.

the additive option is the most common, I think. adding new feature or doubled features to a humanoid form is a very intuitive way to change the design and make it look less human. you see this in most fantasy and scifi designs, like star trek aliens and the dnd player races.

subtractive and evaggerative are the most common options for people that like the uncanny valley. it's really easy to make uncomfortable designs by removing or exaggerating recognizable features, and they're often used together. Slenderman, for example, removes all facial features and skin color but also exaggerates the limbs and body.

Combining the four methods will give you a really interesting design as well! So for practice I decided to explore an alternate design for Tieflings, the part-demon player race in dnd.

(image description: four examples of differnt tiefling designs using the previously described methods. the additive example is just offical dnd art of a tiefling woman with purple skin, horns, and a long tail.

the subtractive sketch looks very alien, with a bald head, empty eyes, and no other facial featuers aside from a small mouth. it has three fingers per hand and two toe per foot.

the exaggerative sketch shows a hunched humanoid figure with huge eyes and big ears. the neck, limbs, and digits are all long with claws at the ends of the fingers and toes, and the limbs are also quite muscular.

the speculative sketch shows a bipedal figure with features similar to a giraffe, including a long neck, ossicones, and hooves.

end description)

now, because tielflings have such a distinct look to them, obviously my new sketches don't really look like tieflings, do they? the only one that comes close is the giraffe. relying only on one type of alteration to the human form has left the designs rather empty and lacking in the more iconic traits of the original concept. so i tried a sketch that combined my ideas! it came out looking like a completely different creature lol, like it could be a kobold or something, still not really a tiefling.

(image description: a sketch of a creature with a giraffe-like head, long tongue, and sharp teeth. it appears to be roaring at something and stands in a half-crouch. it has long limbs with hoof feet and clawed hands, as well as a long tufted tail curled behind it. end description.)

didn't work out. too far into the animal side of the speculative evolution, I think. so I tried again and got a design I liked much better!

(image description: a digital painting of a tiefling leaping back and casting a glowing orange spell. she is wearing a tunic with a corset and detached sleeves, as well as several pieces of jewelry. Her skin is purple with dark patches like a giraffe's spots, and she has a giraffe's ossicones as well as hoof-like hands and two-toed hoof feet. Her tail is long with a tuft at the end. She has glowing eyes and a flat nose, and there is a single sharp tooth visible poking out of the side of her mouth. end description.)

Brought the face back into slightly more human proportions and that helped a lot. Sometimes designs just take a few tries! that's normal.

and hopefully this is helpful to all of you! there are so many ways to alter humanoid designs to come up with something original and unique to you!

So a bit of info on how I got all of this to happen:

This was planned to be a sorta-battlefield between Seafoam and Stardust where both dark worlds collided and both individual parties from both side met and... Didn't get along. Hence fighting.

Their colors were based on the theory/idea between Additive colors and Subtractive ones. The idea goes that the main deltarune cast are composed of additive colors (Susie: Red, Kris: Blue, Ralsei: Green) and their dark forms are basically inverting those colors. It also makes them appear much brighter with heavier darks because the colors are blending together at the center.

For more info, read this.

So then I began to design everyone according to both their hypothetical role type and their Subtractive color type.

By role type, I mean that I divided everyone up into three categories with some basic rules attached:

Since the original models were all pixel art, it's hard to tell in any official designs if there's anything else besides basic features, so that's where the "slightly detailed" phrasing comes from.

I mainly based their roles on personality... Also part of a theory that the dark world forms are based on everyone's subconscious. With that in mind I chose outfits I thought everyone would like.

And as for the background... Those are custom saturated colors.

Mainly based on color theming I decided to heavily saturate the icons for seafoam and stardust and then go into a color pallette generator and lay down the core three colors.

And that's basically how I got the background set up.

For Subtractive colors, there were three categories: Magenta, Cyan, and Yellow.

Magenta typically leaned towards pink and red shades with complementary colors. Cyan had blue, purple, and green as complementary colors. And Yellow had green and orange as complementary colors.

For our Sub Cyans we have: Kaiko, Stellar, Sakura, Nymph, Rosemary, Sunshine, Mallow, Meredith, Orion, and Naomi.

For our Sub Magentas we have: Rime, Terios, Juice

And finally, for our Sub Yellows we have: Camellia, Maria, Tulip, Arthur, Keira, Estelle, and Azarael.

And that's it! Experimental color pallettes inside a mass attack of everyone fighting each other! Hope you all like it!

“The men sat in the next booth at the Brown Derby. My back was to them. Suddenly I perked up as I heard my name. “Liz Renay,” one of them said. “There’s a girl who had some tough breaks.” “She brought it on herself,” the other voice said. “Still … it’s kind of sad. She wasn’t just another one of those French pastries who come to Hollywood to look for fame. She had it. She has one of the most beautiful faces I ever saw. You know, she just missed being great.” I turned to get a look at the man who had just spoken. I recognized him as William Ornstein, a reporter for Hollywood Reporter. Ornstein spoke again: “Yeah, that Renay really could have made it big. She was on the way to becoming a superstar. Add a few good breaks and subtract a few of the bad ones and you know, she could have been Marilyn Monroe.”

/ From Liz Renay’s chatty, meandering autobiography My Face for the World to See (1971) /

Born on this day: the sublime Liz Renay (née Pearl Elizabeth Dobbins, 14 April 1926 - 22 January 2007) – b-movie actress / burlesque queen / jailbird / naive outsider painter / gangster Mickey Cohen’s moll / “Streaking Grandmother” / authoress of multiple volumes of sordid memoirs (including My First 2,000 Men and Staying Young) / all-round kitsch icon and the woman hailed by John Waters as “my idea of total glamour.” For Waters’ fans, Renay is venerated for her performance as Muffy St Jacques in punk masterpiece Desperate Living (1977) - especially for her acidic delivery of lines like, "I was having an erotic dream!" and "I sleep in the room next door - naked!" She’s also memorable in The Thrill Killers (1964) and The Hard Road (1970).

anspec / anattspec / absolspec / absolnispec : anattractional/absolnian spectrum.

[ explanation ]

So I use non-sam ace mainly, but anattractional fits me too. The problem that holds (or used to) me back from using it is the language, or lack thereof.

Like say, what is the -spec version of anattractional? I think most would just answer aspec (that's what I would say before too), but aspec isn't an anattractional specific label, it's for all a- orientations. That's like saying the spectrum version of aromantic is aspec, instead of arospec. It's correct in a way, as those identities would be included under aspec, but you could get more specific.

I don't think aspec should be redefined, it should stay a broad umbrella term, and I also don't think anattractional should just be a second definition for aspec, it should get it's own specific spectrum label too, like all the other a- orientations. I don't like the lack of clarity with using aspec for both definitions, I feel like it pushes anattractional to the side, and I still like aspec more as a general, non specific term.

-✦

(First) I came up with anspec. Based off of aspec, as that's what typically thought of as the spec version of anattractional. But with an- in front, like how anattractional is prefixed with an-.

(Later) I asked @isobug for a short version of anattractional, Isopod came up with anatt (and also anat, though I prefer the double T version because anat has other unrelated meanings).

Isopod later also came up with absolnian, an alt term to anattractional (similar idea to terms like anodiean), and the shortening absol/absolni.

-✦

I both terms, anspec for it's simplicity, and absol-spec/absolni-spec for how it matches with other aspec terms (like ace-spec, aro-spec, apl-spec, etc.), so I'm posting this with both names.

[ flag explanation ]

There are no specific stripe meanings for the flag. I just followed the general gradient style of other a-spec flags, and the way they're more colourful than their base flags (instead of using plain white, they use pastel coloured white, or dark colours instead of black/grey, for example).

Here's why I chose dark, almost purplish, blue: For main a-spec flag colours, like aromantic and aplatonic (purple blue green cream apl flag), the colours chosen are the "opposite" of their a-attraction (aromantic green is the opposite of red, which is associated with romance, and aplatonic uses the inverse of multiple colours associated with platonic). From there, I generally have this idea in my head that a- colours are cool/cold colours, the opposite of the warm colours colours associated with attractions. Of all the colours, all with the same value+saturation, the dark blue in between regular blue and purple is visually the darkest/coldest colour. So I felt that would fit as a colour to add to the -spec version of anattractional. (Colour wheel for reference)

Though I still think black is the best colour for representing anattractional. You could think of it like, black = no light, like how it's no attraction. Or subtractive colouring, where if you mixed all the main aspec flag colours (which is the probably the full rainbow at this point) together, then you get black (or at least a very dark colour). It's also just kind of iconic, like the more I look at it, the more I think the use of pitch black as the main colour is really unique/distinct/cool.

Sorry to bother you, but you seem to know a lot about the comics, and specifically about Tim Drake. I was wondering if you knew off the top of your head when Tim and Steph last canonically dated? Because I see people blaming Meghan Fitzmartin a lot, but I could've sworn that they last broke up before she became Tim's author.

So, the people 'blaming' Meghan Fitzmartin are correct—but I can understand some confusion happening because the breakup occurred off-panel. So like, if you weren't following things closely at the time these books were coming out, it might seem like the first Tim story Fitzmartin wrote was referencing a breakup that already happened somewhere else... but that is not the case.

The other possible confusion point would be that there was an earlier 'break up & get back together' storyline with them in the Rebirth era, a few years before she wrote Tim.

To briefly go over the Rebirth & onward Tim/Steph dating timeline just to clear things up (and I'll be using cover dates just for consistency, so if you want release date subtract two months):

Detective Comics #934-935 August 2016 [written by James Tynion IV] Tim & Steph are established to be dating in Rebirth continuity. We don't see the actual moment they start dating, we're just shown that this is now the situation.

Detective Comics #940 November 2016 [written by James Tynion IV] Tim is 'killed' (he's not really but everyone thinks he is, and he is out of the picture for a while) and thus that effectively pauses any relationship between he and Steph, obviously.

Detective Comics #969 January 2018 [written by James Tynion IV] Tim is back and reveals himself as alive to Steph, and the two of them resume their relationship. After a short timeskip, we then learn that in the aftermath of his return... Tim is not being honest with Steph about his plans (to not go to Ivy like he said he would, to instead continue hero-ing indefinitely).

Detective Comics #970 February 2018 [written by James Tynion IV] Tim & Steph start to have some tension here because of how he's overworking himself, how he's handling things with her, and there's a moment where she says she's leaving, he asks if she means 'The Belfrey, the team, or me?' and she says 'I'll get back to you on that.'

Detective Comics #974 April 2018 [written by James Tynion IV] In the aftermath of the team sort of exploding due to ~plot events~ Steph breaks up with Tim while he's throwing too much of himself into his work.

Detective Comics #981 July 2018 [written by James Tynion IV] More plot stuff happens (a whole big mess with Brother Eye) but once that's settled, the two reunite and rekindle their relationship as they head off ‘to Ivy University’ as they tell Bruce, but we know that’s not actually where they’re going.

Young Justice (2019) #5 July 2019 [written by Brian Michael Bendis] Flashbacks show us that after leaving Gotham, Tim & Steph had specifically gone to see the Justice League/Zatanna for help with timeline memory things rather than going to Ivy. Even though they’re in separate places at the main timeline of the book, this shows us that they're still together.

Young Justice (2019) #11-20 February 2020 - January 2021 [written by Brian Michael Bendis] Steph & Tim immediately try to get ahold of one another via text once Tim's back on the correct earth, and work on getting back in touch until eventually reuniting. They are shown together [and depicted as still dating] during the later parts of the book.

Dark Nights: Death Metal: The Last Stories of the DC Universe #1 February 2021 [written by Joshua Williamson, James Tynion IV, and Scott Synder] Shows the two of them together within the larger group of former Titans/YJ members—specifically one panel towards the end shows us Tim with his arm around her while they talk with others [fun fact that’s the panel my icon is from I just had edited Steph’s head out of the way]. As I recall/as far as I'm aware, this issue is the last time we see them interacting together/together as a couple before Future State and then the Infinite Frontier relaunch. [disclaimer that there could be like... a splash page group shot or something that I'm forgetting elsewhere during the Dark Nights: Death Metal event but like, that's not actual interaction that's just physically being present in the same group shot].

NON-CANON BUT RELEVANT: Future State: Robin Eternal #1-2 March - April 2021 [written by Meghan Fitzmartin] During the Future State event which was used largely to tease/set up plotlines for the Infinite Frontier relaunch, in this potential future Tim & Steph are seemingly no longer together but still on okay terms—teaming up in the story, but with clear tension and history there.

Batman: Urban Legends #4 August 2021 [written by Meghan Fitzmartin] We learn that Tim & Steph broke up off-panel before the events of the issue. Steph appears in the following issue further reiterating that they recently broke up.

So yeah! They broke up off-panel and this was first referenced in Batman: Urban Legends #4, thus under Fitzmartin's pen.

(Okay, weird poll results here. Equal votes Y vs N, but I'll subtract my own, so N- and CUCUMBER GUNSHOT clearly wins the direction.)

There's no need to report a bug- that might just su𝕸mon another data validator, or so--̷̘͗ͅ-̸̲̪̎-̴͈̽̐ͅ-mething. You've had quite enough of running away from myster𝕀ous black danger icons on the map.

Which just leaves... where to go? You decide not to APPROACH FATED TERMINUS, and instead SUCCUMB TO HUNGER. That stale pastry and yogurt really weren't DELETE enough to keep you going- you need to go back and stock up, ASAP. Slowly, you turn around, and return to the cafeteria.

There's a woman there who wasn't there before. She's carrying a large scythe, and is speaking into what looks like a radio.

"Lethal with hen...?"

What? Hen? No, that's not the kind of bird you are. ...What kind of DELETE bird are you, again? You tell her to wait a moment- you've almost got it.

"...Nation's typos. Took bulk jug aisles."

What aisles, now? You can't quite make out what she's saying. She's still just talking into that radio of hers.

"Why a hornet's assets? ...Owl, threw greenly. Thin amounts."

Yeah, lady, you're making thin amounts of sense right now. Are you alright? She doesn't look too good DELETE. You take a step towards her, and she steps back.

"Uh, begonia bottom!"

Eﾒ-cuse you? What did she just ¢all you? Is that even DELETE an insult? Like, there's worse things for your bottom to be. You ask her what she's doing here, and if she really thought that burn would sting somehow.

"Anti-tank colt."

Huh? No, tђis is just VIOLENCE AS FIRED. It just stuns stuff- you're pretty DELETE sure it wouldn't bᴇ much DELETE use against a tank.

"...Whose roach?" she says, scowling at her radio. At least, you think she's scowling. It's hard to tell with her face all obscured by shadow.

You---̶̟͚͠͝-̶͕͇̓̐-̵̧̨͍̺̖̜͓̱̜̟̲͎̻̀̏̔̋͆͂̆͌͘͝-̷̢͙̯͍̖͓̝̹̙̔͒̐̉͑͊̕͜͝-̷̫̬̗͋̏̂̍̽͌̈́̉̓̀̓̔̕͠͝-̸̛̩̭̥̺̔͗̐͆͐̓͂͝ͅ-̷̥͉͉̹̄͑̈̿̌̀̃͆̉̒̾̌́͠͝-̴̰̆-̶͖͊̕-- approach the vending machines- you think you spot something that might've been left for you, if someone were to PORT POLYTHEI丂TS and spend Coin. You're trying to ignore the ⒮cythe woman- it kind of seems like she's having DELETE a private conversation. You can't hear whoever's on the other end of that radio too well, and she hasn't really directed anything at you.

"Jilt nullifies kilt."

...Uh. What? That sounded like more nonsense, 𝕭ut something about the way she said it made your bl���od run cold. You turn to see her brandishing her scythe, and be𝓪ring down on you.

The radio murmurs something. "Winding quad-hit," she replies.

She suddenly moves with alarming speed, and you just barely duck out of the way of the slicing a𝕽c of her DELETE 𝔻ELETE scythe as it cuts through the air with a crackling noise. You raise your DELETE shield to block a followup swing- what the hell is she doing?!

She's winding up for anoｔher DELETE attack- and you're pretty sure you can't keep dodging her forever. Is she a secur🅸ty guard?! You've got to get the hell out of here! But... which way do you run?!

You could return the way you came, maybe? You've got some RETURNING THOUGHTS that are starting to sound like a great idea right about now.

There's a scurrilous knave on the other end of the room, by the hallway to rece𝙿tion- perhapˢ you could GET TO DASTARD, and then... be hurt, and GETS OW? Or be neither prep NOR GOTH?

Reddit guys often act like Post-Evilification Nishiki is some kind of independent masculine icon compared to the way he was in Yakuza: 0 but the truth is that Patriarch Nishiki is. Lmao. He is infinitely more fragile and pathetic than he ever was in the eighties. All the energy he puts into concealing his weaknesses is subtracted from his ability to control them - which makes him a good leader for a gang of brutal thugs, but as a private person it strips him of all his strengths, and what’s left is neurotic and bloodthirsty and unstable and 100% charmless when parlaying with others on equal footing instead of barking orders at men who are terrified of him. He’s much wealthier while simultaneously being down at least fifteen percent in body fat, all his features razor-sharp, almost like he’s starving. He tries to convince people he’s on top of everything but you just know he isn’t getting any sleep. He’s a blatant contradiction, so desperate to inject a sense of value into the power he’s chasing but so uninterested in denying just how ragingly miserable the pursuit is making him. When Yumi reminds him he won’t be happy even if he has the money, he freaks out and demands that she acknowledge what he’s “achieved” - it’s about his worth, not his happiness, and the latter is an afterthought without the foundation of the former. He’s never been more dangerous or more hard to love and it’s eating him, wearing him away, all the people who once held him up transformed into names on a list of his failures. I am shoving him in a washing machine and turning on the spin cycle as we speak.

To that one 'smart jikooker' in comments

1. Not just I-jikooker literally every other K-jikooker tweeted abt it

2. If it was set in 06.13 when he came live on Festa day you WILL see ot7s posting abt it with hit tweets, now that its Jkk they avoid it

3. Another country timezone won't work as this fit none of the countries timezones he may went publicly or privately

4. Live wasn't pre recorded either as he was responding to in real time comments, though it lagged a few times in middle of it.

5. This is not the only Patek Philip watch he has, which he started wearing around same time, He have 2 of it, if he wanted that iconic model they mentioned he could've bought just that one giving the same money of two. BOY IS CRAZY RICH.

6. I'm NOT the one who believes in number theories in general as they said, you can add and subtract anything to get the desired result but some things becomes obvious af to avoid. And this one is EXTREMELY obvious and you are just a dummy who's pretending to smart if you are finding excuses for this, sorry.

7. This, JK posting timestamp, them using 05.08 and 13.00, them using 58 and 13 jerseys, Jimin knowing extremely well to use anniversary calculator when rest boys didn't etc points to them indeed using numbers sometimes lol. It won't make sense to us but it's just a Korean thing

8. BTS had used these number based announcements multiple times, like trailers, concept pics, IU and Yoongi used it for EIGHT release, that one magazine who's whipped for Jimin (wkorea I think) posts Jimin related pics on 10.13 lol

9. Funny thing is, those who deny it are not able to give a strong reason as no excuse make sense lol. Unless it's thee biggest coincidence which is way too coincident to be just a coincidence or his watch stopped working, again was working perfectly fine during live, he purposefully did it.

10. No one is buying a watch worth $$$$ just to use it as accessory lol especially not Jimin. He even sets the time according to place he's traveling to.

Anon came hella prepared. I would also like to quote @chimchiminie13 who said:

JM’s 1997 Aquanaut Steel Patek costs around $56k US. So he is not wearing the affordable kind. So even if it is not worn for a long time it will continue to tell the current time. It is not a coincidence in my opinion.

I think antis need to take a rest on this one. Period

7, 9 and 12 for the BL ask game! 💙!

7. Top 5 BL

oh gosh this so hard. In no particular order then:

The Sign. It's everything to me. I love shows that have buckwild premises. A show about detectives who are reincarnated mythical creatures and the main guy has visions of the future for some reason? I know some people felt like they focused too much on the other aspects of the show (like the detective stuff) but I honestly loved it and did not mind that it did that.

Word of Honor. It's my comfort show tbh. I got really into wuxia/xianxia after watching The Untamed but this is the one I have enjoyed the most. I love characters who are kinda evil. and like neither Wen Kexing or Zhou Zishu really go through a redemption arc but more of a domestication and retirement arc respectively.

My School President. In my humble opinion, this is like the quintessential teen romance drama of all time. It hit every metric for me and I love it so much. One of those dramas I wished I had growing up because it would have completely changed the directory of my baby queer journey if I had it. (23.5 is shaping up to be the wlw equivalent for me in this tbh. I wish the show came out in its current form in like 2016)

Manner of Death. Another just overall solid show that hits every bit for me. Iconic for how it like changed the course of the genre. It's only flaw in not going full acab at the end with Inspector M not quitting the police after seeing how corrupt it is (and also it's kinda mid take on abortion, but I'm not familiar enough with the general opinion on that in Thai culture in 2020, so I think Bun taking an even neutral stance on it was probably a big step?), but I can forgive it for how vehemently Bun remained acab despite being just a regular doctor.

My Tooth Your Love. Bai Lang is just like me fr fr. I know some people weren't a fan of the dentist setting but honestly, I don't really mind that. Bai Lang's struggles with his trauma felt so real to me and like I could really connect to it. This was my first Taiwanese BL and it was a great one for me to start with. It's only problem was trying to pair all the spares without enough time to do so, but I don't think that it subtracted anything from the main story.

9. Currently Watching

So I've been quite busy lately and haven't had a lot of time to watch stuff, but I did recently start watching The Spirealm, which I have been enjoying, even though I had to take a bit of a break, I'm planning on getting back into watching it in the next week or two! Not a BL, but I'm also watching 23.5! I'm a little behind because of being busy, but I'm also going to catch up on that one. I have several other dramas that I've only seen part of and will hopefully pick back up again soon, but these are the two I feel like I'm most focused on finishing up (unless I suddenly get a desire to watch another one of the dramas and end up bingeing it but we'll see)

12. Most rewatched BL

answered that here!
