#persona 5: imagining project'

[sillyfudgemonkeys]

Hello there! sorry if this is a bother but do you still know anything else about atlusxp5? i've been digging as of recently

Sorry it took a bit to respond (was away on vacay). Funny you should say that, I recently looked at their channel to see if they've updated since their last teaser from 4 years ago TT0TT (spoiler: they have not)

What I know about it (from memory). Prior to P5 ever having a speck of actual confirmation on the internet, someone decided to make a fan P5 project called "Persona 5 Imagining Project/P5IP" and it was "by" AtlusxP5 (link to channel). They posted some cool songs (that aren't original, they are copyrighted, but still awesome), some character sheets (possibly on twitter? I don't know much about that side, sadly it's defunct ;w;), and trailers, and people analyzed it on the now defunct Atlus Forums/Threads

I think Atlus struck them down (or they had to priv their videos at least for a good while, and their twitter's gone so....who knows what happened tbh) and.....well.....we don't know what's up anymore. TT0TT

Thankfully, a lot was saved/salvaged by the lovely trifectamix, who has all the songs iirc as well as pics of the char sheets and threads. I highly recommend them! They did a great job preserving an amazing period piece of Persona fandom!

If you wish you had more of a fix....well good news, another fan creator (Assinine Syndrome) wanted to continue the saga. Or at least, write a fanfic-type posts about what they think would've happened. Most of the writing are in the video descriptions iirc. But they follow a similar format of existing songs (and remixing/mashing them up), and I recommend them! They finished their version of P5IP and have gone onto their own fan music list of P6 VERGS (and seem to have a P7 concept in the works).

Here's Assinine Syndrome's channel (where the meat of it all is), and here's their fanfic page, they only did like a prologue chapter to P5IP/P6V but it might still be notable to read if you're interested.

(note in case I've confused anyone: AS isn't AtlusxP5, I believe they are just a big fan of P5IP is all, but they're stuff is fun too and I recommend them).

New account! Wanna get more persona moots so I'm starting from the ground up here with my P6 project. Here's the Protagonist.

Someone used your old art to make a fake p6 cover and some people belive is real and used it in stores 😭😭😭

The old art I've made was already taken from an existing source, which is in the image shown below.

Day 6: Persona 5

(Atlus, PS3, 2013)

The striking black & white aesthetic was a genius choice after the colorful Persona 4. What’s that? No, I have the right date. Huh…”Joker”? Why would the Batman villain be in a Persona game? You must be thinking of a different game.

Limbus Company au! Goro Akechi!! au where after marukis palace, he ends up being found by faust and recruited to join limbus company. to the sinners, his name is Krow. Vergil and Faust however do know his true identity. He is somewhat recognizable but people cant quite place how or when they have seen him - he has both clawed gauntlets + his crazy ass sword! (he also deff has a white night e.g.o) Krow is a very...interesting coworker, definitely not up for making friends, yet he is really good at charming random people they may need information from. He definitely has seen the cruelties of the city and a pov from the top.

dante has tried connecting with krow but it doesnt exactly end well.. don pesters him alot, i imagine she actually might even know who he is and pesters him alot cuz he deff was a famous fixer but she cant quite figure out who. also ryoshu bully session <3

i cant wait to draw him covered in blood or something fighting abnormalities :3 hes deff crazy on the battle field and it shocks the sinners immensely

HONESTLY GORO FITS SO WELL INTO LIMBUS IT MAKES ME INSANE...i can imagine his reasoning for being there is like to redeem himself somewhat (even though its very hard) or to finish off shidos goonies for good, uncaring of what will happen to himself afterwards

B O O !

Hahaha! Good grief your face! I can't see it, but I'm gonna assume you're frightened!

Anyway, Happy Halloween, may your night be spoopy!

"Why hello there pup, enjoying your festivities?"

Oh! Hey Nyarlathotep! Yeah! It's spooky day! All the Trick-or-treaters are out and about!

"Hmm I see... well in that case, I suppose I should take part in this tradition, as a god of chaos It's basically in the job description."

"Now then... Treat-or-Trick?"

Um... Nyar, it's Trick-or-

"TRICK IT IS THEN."

"Wait, what!?'

"How about me, sweet pup?~"

NYARLETHOTEP P5IP!?!?!?!?!?

Man can you imagine if one of the April Fools events they do with project sekai and have it tie in with persona

Like have the default vocaloids be Velvet Room residents and the rest of the characters are persona users but the personas are their sekai versions of the vocaloids. The leaders are the wild cards so they get three and then the other members get one each (usually the one that debuted in that character's event) and then go from there

The Persona 6 project continues with the MC's main persona: MARTIAN. The archetypal alien visitor from Mars, every culture in the world whispers about sightings of this voyager from beyond the stars. Adrift in the cosmos, the martian finds itself stranded on a little planet called Earth. A new visitor from another place like you, the urban legend to end them all will be the one assisting you as you venture into this other world.

I'M FREAKING THE F*CK OUT!!!!!

AtlusxP5 and their upcoming project

This is a follow-up to yesterday's post.

I have continued speaking with the person, and I believe I can now fully confirm their identity as AtlusxP5.

This person will no longer remain nameless. As they have decided to come forward, I'll share their identity.

Sunsutōn has been working hard on continuing Persona 5: Imagining Project as PERSONA / RE-IMAGINING PROJECT.

Please, follow them and show support.

This blog will continue to document Sunsutōn and Persona / Re-Imagining Project.

I want to thank Sunsutōn for taking the time to speak with me. The kindness I've been shown by them is overwhelming.

Recently read @queenofthequillandink ’s DPxDC crossover fic Unearthed, Reborn

I got inspired to draw character sheets for Danny, Sam, Jason, and Jazz’s vigilante personas. Here’s a link to the author’s drawings of their outfits (these were a vital reference for me when doing this so thank you so much for sharing them Quill) More commentary (like 7+ paragraphs plus 2 images) about this project and the designs below the “keep reading” line.

None of these thoughts I have for each character are in order, but I have a lot of commentary for these since this project was a lot more conceptual than my normal work. I also just like talking about my art/design process. If you ever find yourself wondering at some point why an element from the original design wasn’t included, the answer is that the removal was completely intentional and part of my grandmaster vision for this work and wasn’t because I just forgot about it entirely during the design process.

————————————————————————

Aconite (Sam)

This was the first one I sketched out, I wasn’t even sure at the time if I was going to fully commit to drawing all of them. I thought that Sam was gonna be the hardest since her description was way longer than the others, but then bird boy beat her out. I took a lot of creative liberties with her design, the bag was added bc I couldn’t figure out how to add pockets to the skirt. I was trying to avoid a joker color scheme so I had a lot of ref images that I got by searching like “purple green aesthetic” on Pinterest. The dark purple and dark forest/blueish green won out in the end. I desaturated a lot of my colors for her just to get as far away from the neon Gotham rogue aesthetic. I also added the bdsm harness over the armor to add more punk elements to her design, I know that in real life that would be very uncomfortable to wear over scalemail armor but sometimes we take creative liberties when they look sick as fuck. Also, I didn’t realize until I went to look for a reference for aconite flowers that aconite is wolfsbane! That was neat to learn! Also, the font I used for Aconite is called “zai Art School Calendar 1931”, I’ve used this a few times for other projects, it’s one of my favorite fonts. The ‘zai’ fonts the creator has are all very good.

Shade (Danny)

There wasn't much to add to this page. His outfit is pretty simple (besides the patterning). I wasn’t sure how to pull of an optical illusion pattern but I was reminded how I sometimes get an eyestrain induced headache when looking at someone wearing a patterned shirt with really thin stripes so I just leaned into the idea of a small/detailed hard lined pattern. I originally made 5 separate patterns for him and then turned them into stamp brushes in procreate. I only ended up using three of them, the one on the chest, the one on the legs, and the one on his hand. But, I imagine the patterns fade and shift when he moves, sort of like a lenticular print. I gave him constellation freckles and stylized the hair’s fade into white. The hair was inspired by how time-woods draws Martin Blackwood’s hair (linked: time-woods’s fanart of Martin Blackwood). Also put way too much effort into the teeth on the mask. I just like the chunky teeth design. Oh yeah and the font I used for him is called “Typewriter_Condensed_Demi”

Erinys (Jason)

Repeatedly ran into the issue of not having enough canvas space bc of my fervent need to thoroughly document and plan out how the wings worked. I also reversed the colors for the bodysuit & armor so the under layer was black while the armor plates were red. I only realized afterwards that I may have been inspired by the red centipedes in Rain World (linked: gif of the red centipede, don’t click the link if you’re unsettled/afraid of bugs/insects), artists subconsciously draw inspiration from other artists all the time though so I’m not like upset about it. I stand by it because it looks sick as hell. Also leaned into the magpie theming for the wings. I think the vigilante form was supposed to be reverse magpie coloring? I can’t remember, but I stuck with normal magpie coloring. The anatomy of how the wings connected to the collarbone was inspired by JayEaton’s Magpie Bridge Project. Reference image link. Link to the article the image is from. I didn’t draw the wing armor because I couldn’t figure out how to would work with the wing anatomy and I ran out of canvas space. Finally, the font used for him is “DIN Condensed” this is a default font, I would’ve used something more punk but I needed the text to be legible.

Insight (Jazz)

I did Jazz after I’d already finished the initial trio, so I had to switch to a new canvas for her bc I’d hit the layer limit multiple times on the previous one. I really do love doing that spiked under-eyelash thing with characters. Don’t know when that started. Anyway, I added the shoulder pads to her outfit to help break up the empty space. The golden eyes were a nice accent color since her design is very overwhelmingly green. Honestly the braid hairstyle and gold eyes really do obscure her identity, multiple times when drawing her I was worried that she didn’t really resemble Jazz enough. There wasn’t a drawing from the author for her so I only had the text description to go off of. I just realized that she sort of reminds me of a forest ranger and I don’t know what to do with that realization. I copy/pasted my drawing of her eyes when gold and recolored them to match her normal eye color. There were two layers for that, a hue shift and a hard light layer to emphasize the shadows.

Here’s what it looks like without the hue shift: 

It looks really cool and I’m 100% that color combo in another drawing down the line. Oh yeah and the font used for this sheet was “Euphemia UCAS”. It comes with Apple’s operating system, I use it as a neutral default text most of the time bc it’s nicer than helvetica but not overly fancy like Times New Roman—and why am I talking about fonts. ——————————————————————— Anyway, this project was very fun to work on. The alt text for this was its own endeavor, hope the folks using screen-readers don’t mind 4-5 paragraphs of description text. Also, I cannot remember for the life of me if Dani got a costume description, but if she does I’ll make sure to update this image set with a sheet for her. And to the author, QueenOfTheQuill, if you’re reading this message that I’ve left at the very bottom of this post below a read more line, thank you for the fic. It’s very good and I’m glad I caught it during my slow decent into DPxDC brainrot. I love the interactions between Jason and Tim, it’s nice seeing a revived Jason that’s not bogged down by pit rage. They definitely seem like they could’ve been good friends if not for the unfortunate circumstances that led them to meet in canon. Also, I’m sure Jazz will love interacting with Batman and Nightwing. So much psychological & childhood trauma to unpack with them. Feel free to use/share these images if you so desire and thanks again for your work.
