The six eared macaque is spared!!

Now he has the opportunity to pester the group (in a less lethal manner).

[ it is important to note that I am heavily referencing OverlySarcasticProductions’ style, as they served as an inspiration. These are not the actual events of the story, and I do not claim their work as my own! ]

✦ SOMEBODY STOP THIS WILD MONKEY!!! AND HELP POOR TRIPITAKA---

✦ Also, first time doing a colorful little comic, yippee!!

[sporkfingers]

Some Tang Sanzang concept art that I don’t think I’ll finish anytime soon, but whateva

The scar on his head is from a spat with wukong gone wrong, spur of the moment which he regretted after he realized what he had done-

he waited for his sifu to use the fillet tightening sultra to punish him, he’s shaking, apologizing profusely in a small voice. To his surprise he doesn’t feel the painstaking ache of the band squeezing. Instead, when he looks up he finds Tripitaka, his sifu, looking at him with a horrified look on his face. But…. He’s not scared of wukong… he’s scared of himself, if he could cause such a reaction in this godly simian, a demon that the heavens feared, then…what he had been doing…it wasn’t right, it couldn’t be.

-Lololol that’s my head canon/ my own home brew story of Jttw that I’ve been making in my mind, I like to imagine that’s the point where they’re relationship starts to turn for the better and instead of reluctant companions they become friends who wish to protect each other in every way, no matter the cost. They are representative of the mind and the heart, like in most cases they clash and argue, resent and fear each other, but when finding balance and harmony throughout their journey the mind and heart grow closer and work as one. They’re relationship to me is something more than friendship, it’s love but not romantic love, but it’s also not familial love like a father and son, though some translations of the book describe their relationship as such I’d like to think of it as something deeper. Again not romantic kissy love. These babes are Buddhists lololol but it is more than friendship. I might post my version of the story on here and you can interpret as you please, father son, a couple, friends, enemies. But know that in the end what him and sun wukong have is complex, it can not be summed up in one word. At least that’s my take on them,

Also the other scars are from demons, getting captured and such, the scar between his eyebrows he got as a baby, and the read on his wrists are from rope burn, again from being tied up and captured.

I like to see the monk as having a fit build despite acting and appearing weak, though he does not know what to do with this rocking bod he has. (This drawing was inspired by gidget… I loved their reference for their tang and decided I would make my own concept sheet depicting his scars and body type as well.)

I want to start posting my dynamic stuff on here and actually drawing my Jttw ideas… I just get really perfectionist about them and end up only liking the art after a year goes by and it’s too late to post them….

If you made it here tell me what you think, I’ve spent like 5 minutes writing this and my cat is chirping angrily at me cause she wants me to pet her lolololol so pouty, my cute baby is throwing a fit

Sorry if you think these takes are trash it’s just my headcanons, they might change overtime though

I made this today, and I just thought... a modern au, Reader is in need of finding a new place to live, and since she's broke and couldn't rely on many people, she's okay by taking the first thing she finds.  Call it luck (or misfortune), but she finds a condo, cheap rent, with a flat that can be taken already without any kind of problems. The landlord is... a really nice guy? A GENUINE KIND MAN? Like, a big soft man that can literally fix and do everything you can ask? Then, she met the three friends of the landlord that live there, a Buddhist dude that seems nice, maybe too much. Help, he's giving her life advice. Then this big man that just kept on flirting with her, even after she had slammed her door in his face. and this...gremlin...this creepy dude with yeòllow eyes that goes around with a stick (he got abs, so who cares?)

Only after some time does she realize that these three are not just strange dudes that live there; they're the famous pilgrims of the story Journey to the West, and the entire condo is full of demons and other creatures, and she has to survive/get along with them.

Jttw tripitaka

[starrclown]

Ya think Wukong slips sometimes and calls Tang dad cause he used to (canonically) call Tripitaka dad in the book and Tang is Litteraly him with glasses and hair?

I think he probably does.

I think he also hates he doesn’t it cause Tangs not his dad, his dad’s gone.

Live action Wukong waiting on Tripitaka to call him son (he won’t):

I like how I colored Wukong and Macaque

Hello I have an question!

How do you do character design and make yourself come up with creative ideas for them? Outfits, fantasy, etc

I’ll appreciate all and any advice :)

It is very difficult for me to come up with ideas off the top of my head, which is why I’m so grateful that the world makes ideas for me.

For example, the silver horned demon brother, from one of my JTTW comics was annoying for me to think of. “What has horns that isn’t an animal, something ancient and creepy?” I had been looking through videos of cave formations when I saw a kind of build up that looked an awful lot like mushrooms. Bam! One discovery snowballed into this spooky design of the silver horned demon, a decaying eye filled form that lives deep in a cave with his brother

For the Queendom of women, I didn’t even need to think of anything. I simply researched the actual Queendom and based their clothing off of the real people. They have tons of beautiful art and scenery as well, so it was easy to work with once I knew what I was looking for through research

💥WARNING, MAGGOTS SPIDERS AND BODY HORROR❌ I couldn’t find a way to blur the images??

For the design of the seven spider women, I was very unsatisfied with their role in the book. I wanted them to leave a lasting impression with their limited time. I didn’t change anything about their story, but I instead used the fear of insects and impregnating for their monster design, right before Wukong kills and defeats them. They’re based off the wasps that lay their eggs inside spiders, and they cocoon together in an amalgamated form like that of a spider nest, leaving them as horrific humam-spider monsters

[ask-thesparedau]

I wonder, what happened to Tripitaka?

Waiting to be rescued <3 as per usual

Certified Bodyguard (by Guanyin)

It's genuinely funny how often Tang gets snatched in the books.

[angryvampire]

RUN MONKEY!!

DON'T LET THEM TAKE THE MONK!!

[trunyok]

JTTW AU where Wukong escaped the punishment of the Buddha.

To be honest, I'm ashamed of this little comic, but I decided to publish it anyway. ʕ*ﾉᴥﾉʔ

I would also like to add that the monk is crying because he cannot now fulfill the promise he made to the Emperor: To deliver the sacred books.
