#marble critters

[fireyartccoon]

might have accidentally cooked up another AU

but hey, it’s sonic related and it is Friday, so why not

For context they are these things called Marble Critters I made a long while back, basically just pokemon but instead of pokeballs you use magical marbles, totally not an outcome after little me made too many fakemon and came up with the idea to make them their own thing

Sonic is a bunkgehog, which are supposed to be skinny and practically rabid, but made an exception for Sonic since I had no other hedgehog marble critters, so no need to worry about cannibalistic tendencies, yet

meanwhile Tails is a Kitdrop, which are supposed to have three tails, so technically in this au the twin tails are a downgrade, at least the little dude can still fly, so he has that going for him

I’m still developing this AU and honestly planning to have it be somewhat of a crossover instead of a roleswap like I usually do, to include regular marble critters and other characters from the original thing

I’ll probably post more about this some other time when I have more drawings to show, until then, have a great weekend

I'm a bit late for Halloween, but meet the Marbled Orb weaver! They're also known as pumpkin spiders thanks to that vibrant orange coloring and because by October they've grown in size after feasting on insects all summer long!

They're fairly docile as long as they don't feel threatened, and as with most orb weavers aren't venomous enough to cause significant harm to humans, though you still shouldn't handle them unless you know what you're doing.

thinking of posting more kindling stuff... maybe making its own story ^_^

(BECOME TIIMMM!!!)

I've never heard someone use "get good",,, But!! Yeah I'm so glad I'm not scared of spiders anymore! I also love bug grabbing,,

"I heard it from somewheres a long time ago. Perhaps you should go bug catching, as long as you know your dangerous and don't grab for them."

awesomest tim wright headcanon: he was the weird kid when he was in elementary/middle school and he used to wear the masky mask to like, roleplay wolves or something

[voice-of-illogical-sense]

Pendantswap Critters (4/8)

Time for another set! We’re halfway there! Now we have the elephant and the mouse!

Chum, a genius with a few screws loose. He loves making machines and different kinds of strange stuff using junk from the garbage. His experiments often go wrong and his mess has to be cleaned up by the others but despite that he never stops, he might even be becoming more passionate with each failure.

Rattus Rattlebrain, a mouse with a passion for knowledge. He loves learning and sharing what he knows. Sometimes he ends up rambling a bit much and he’s a bit hard to follow but seeing the mouse happily explain makes you happy to listen.

At the moment, they’ve just regarded Chum as a mad scientist and find his antics annoying but they do respect his talent, the fact that he’s able to create weird contraptions with simple junk from the trash is in it of itself impressive, even if he’s lost his marbles.

Rattus is completely blind without his glasses, and Rattus always ends up losing them, either in a normal way or a completely strange and unexpected fashion. He considers this to be a bother but he finds eye contacts uncomfortable.

I got inspired by @tawnysoup Isat critters

Gang help I don't know that the fuck this is??

A marble and Marsball? What ever it is it's freaking out my fritter

Can you please make a post about your kevin ( Barnes ) design?

You have no idea how excited I was to see this ask. Considering I was gonna make one anyway…

Here’s Kevin! There’s gonna be a more color accurate version at the bottom of this since unfortunately the markers I needed were dried out :(

I honestly had some trouble with him compared to Matthew but I’m pretty satisfied with the end result!

Anyway! He has some stickers on his vest/over shirt thing of a “Good Job!” Type star, dogday, and a blue smiley face. From this point on it’s getting into fun-thoughts-i-had-while-designing territory so here’s a few more doodles before I start yapping

I like to think his favorite smiling critter was dogday but to avoid being seen as basic he’d say Kickin.

I also like to think he carries stuff in his pockets! Whole lot of trash he forgot to throw out and little toys to hold onto. Like he’s got a whole mess of marbles in one of them, he likes to collect them! They’d probably be rewards in class that he’s gathered over the years. Gets pretty upset if he can’t find one.

He’s kind of a mess from roughhousing so he’s got a couple of scars and actively healing bruises on him. But he’s a tough kid they don’t bother him

I honestly really wanted to give him braces but considering the circumstances I don’t think it would make much sense. In another life perhaps

Anyway color accurate version ft. Shitty doodle:

Thinking about the guy ever... I feel like Olmi would have a bit of an interesting dynamic with the other characters so im gonna put how they would feel about em down below . for funnies

Marmors in general: Olmi's relationship with the marmors is a bit complicated. On one hand they should feel grateful, because they would've died in space had their spaceship not been taken in. Plus if they find their planet's location, Olmi will be reunited with his family and people. But on the other, the marmors treat them like a toy or a pet almost. In the vault they're kind of treated as entertainment for the marmors, only getting a window into the other room or hall after asking many, many times. They're not seen as equals and they don't like it very much. Plus, once they escape their cell and learn of whats happening to Teegarden and what the marmors do to the planets they find, Olmi is less trusting of them.

Ward: Too big. But pretty calm and quiet, much like olmi. I think between the two humans, Olmi would trust Ward a bit more just because he's more straightforward with his words than Oscar, and more serious.

Oscar: I imagine Oscar talks quickly and he talks a lot, which makes it a bit hard for Olmi to understand him sometimes. They see Oscar as an older sibling like Olmi themself, based on the care he shows for Alcor, and they find their relationship familiar to Olmi's with his family and younger siblings.

Holly: Olmi finds Holly very confusing. When they first meet they assume he's human like the other two, but I don't think they would fully grasp the shapeshifting. Both of their cultures seem to kind of be based around helping the planet/stewarding the ecosystems (I'm not too sure for Teegarden, but based on what we know, how helpful they are to each other, etc. I think it makes sense to say that) so I think they can relate to that. After Olmi learns about what is happening on Teegarden they would want to help, maybe because they don't want to see a planet with life so similar to their own get extinguished.

Ecliptica: I'm not sure if Olmi would know Ecliptica very well. From the way Oscar talks about her I think they'd gather that she is the leader of the marmors, and by extension Olmi wouldn't be super fond of her. Plus based on her treatment of Oscar I think Ecliptica would see Olmi based on their usefulness to her.

Sculptor: Pretty much the same for the rest of the marmors, although because sculptor is actively trying to find where their planet is by going through their memories, collaborating with other marmor ships maybe, etc., they feel the need to try and stop him, as well as stopping him from hurting others within the vault.

Alcor: scary . its like a marmor but their size. hate. but also kind of reminds them of their younger siblings in a way, so they mostly just avoid him.
