Hello it’s extremely late oops. Did not realize how long this thing would take (28 and a half hours apparently according to procreate lmao) but finally, here it is!

Carmen Week Day 8: La Femme Rouge

Holy crap that was a lot of characters! For day 8 I wanted to draw all the ways I've drawn/imagined Carmen over the last 5 years! There are many I didn't do for one reason or another, but it mainly boiled down to space lol. These 10 (11 including canon Carmen) are (most) of my favorites of my AUs :)

this turned out so cool im putting it in a frame when i get a chance lol

Info and solo drawings for each under the cut! it is. so long lol

as usual, i'll gladly answer asks about em :) i have plans to write a few for sure, but it's gonna be A While for them lol

Cat:

Both a Warriors AU and also just my "_____ as a cat" style!

This ones a lot less fleshed out so just bear with me lol. (ATM there might only be 2 clans, ACME and VILE, idk yet lol. idk what to name em either cos stickin "clan" on the end don't feel right XD)

In the Warriors AU, Sheeppaw grows up learning 2 contradictory versions of the Warrior Code: The true one from Shadowstalk, and the VILE version from older warriors. She gets made an apprentice a couple moons early, but is relegated only to camp duties until shes 6 moons old.

She trains alongside Cracklepaw, Tigerpaw, Molepaw, Goatpaw, and Silentpaw. At her first gathering she meets another apprentice, maybe a few moons older, from the other clan: Jewelpaw. The two hit it off and become good friends (and develop little mutual crushes). Sheeppaw also sneaks out and meets a kittypet: Player, who she also becomes very good friends with.

When her mentor, the deputy, Shadowstalk fails her on her final warrior assessment she pretty much has most of the same reaction as the show, just in the WC style.

After witnessing a murder, she hightails it out of there and encounters the newly named Crackletail. Panicked, she hastily and vaguely tells him she saw something and needs to Leave.

She makes it to Players yard and lays low for a while, and he introduces her to the neighbor cats, a sibling pair named Zack and Ivy. The four brainstorm and Sheeppaw is renamed Carmen. They know they cant let VILE keep doing what they're doing. So rogue Carmen and her kittypet friends start figuring things out from behind the scenes.

Pirate Cat:

Exactly as it says, bipedal cat world. Black Sheep was dropped off at a random orphanage in England, with a small stuffed black sheep (where she got her name). Since everybody are cats, Black Sheep isn't that atypical of a name. Sorta a mix of normal people names and cat names.

She grows up there alongside her self-appointed older brother Graham. When she's about 10-11ish she meets the princess: Julia Argent. Childhood friends to lovers letsgoo (its a recurring theme in these lol. its cute i like it).

The two eventually get together (in secret, yay homophobia and also societal status) It doesn't help that Black Sheep had a habit of getting in trouble so she could see the princess her princess.

The two get caught one night, and Black Sheep is nearly executed for "corrupting royalty", but Julia manages to talk her father down from that. Instead, she is exiled. If she ever sets foot in the kingdom after dawn, she WILL be killed this time.

Julia visits one last time, and Black Sheep promises to return someday when she finds somewhere where they can be together freely. She gives Julia her stuffed sheep to look after while she's gone, and asks her to take care of Fuega while she's gone (on one of their sneak-outs, they found a baby dragon that Julia managed to convince her dad to let her keep). Julia gives her the triangle choker. yay tearful goodbyes ;-;

Black Sheep and Graham (because no way is he letting his little sister go into exile without him) go from place to place, stealing when they need to and end up accidentally stowing away on a VILE pirate ship.

VILE pirate training to avoid death, they escape. Graham appoints the newly named Carmen Sandiego captain of their little ship, and they also pick up Zack, Ivy, and Player along the way. Carmen becomes very well known around the globe: civilians/lower class people see her as a Robin Hood hero (correct), while most royals and nobles see her as nothing but a filthy pirate (incorrect).

A few years go by when suddenly the crew gets word that the King of England is trying to marry off his daughter, who has recently come of age. Cue panicked race home + childhood lover reunion.

Daughter of Poseidon (Carmen Sandiego and the Olympians):

Percy Jackson AU! Replace Percy with Carmen, Grover with Player, Annabeth with Julia, and switch/move around some plot points and that's about it lol. I keep telling myself I'll do some scene rewrites of this one so we'll see. Includes PJO and HOO acting as prequels for Carmen Sandiego. Def wanna do dome rewrites for the canon show for this AU too lol

Dino Squad:

I'm out here combining one obscure kids show with another lol. If you haven't seen it, Dino Squad is this early 2000s animated show about these 5 teenagers that get mutated and can turn into dinosaurs, and go around stopping the bad guy from turning everything into dinosaurs. (I think the entire series may be on youtube lol. its goofy but man i loved it as a kid. i wanted dino powers so bad)

This is basically a high school au but most of Team Red has dinosaur powers. :P

In this, Dr. Bellum is experimenting with bringing dinosaurs back, but instead of just cloning them, she figures out how to mutate already-existing organisms into others.

(in the OG dino squad, the bad guy IS a dinosaur that evolved into a human--long story--and believes everything should still be dinosaurs. hes technically right, tbf, if the meteor hadn't hit they prolly still WOULD be dinosaurs. why does bellum want dinosaurs? because she's Bellum and she Can lol)

Carmen Wolfe and her twin brother Graham (they're fraternal twins. why? bc i thought it would be funny. yes he still has his accent. its my world i do what i want) are raised by Carlotta and Dexter Wolfe in Kittery Point, Maine. Carlotta is a paleontologist/biologist and Dexter is a history and geography teacher at the high school. They do know of VILE and what Bellum was working on and have been monitoring it in secret from the kids.

Carmen and Julia are those friends that met bc they were both hiding under the slide in like. Preschool and just stayed friends lol. They're the kind of best friends that will just. Show Up. usually Julia at Carmen's house because "You have better snacks" also Julia's parents just Don't Like Carmen. (Why? idk bc i said so. idk they think she's a bad influence. she's really not lol) Literally Julia has like a spot on the couch and a table setting. She's basically the third twin these three have known each other essentially their entire lives.

Zack and Ivy joined the group in middle school, when Ivy had the same class as Carmen, Julia, and Gray. Zack joined via association. (Zack and Ivy, on the other hand are not twins. again. bc its funny. each sibling pair thought the other was like them. zack and ivy thought Carmen and Gray were just normal siblings, and Carmen and Gray thought Zack and Ivy were twins. Julia had to explain to all of them it was not the case lol)

Player is Carmen's online friend that the whole group includes. they all game together and he gets ALL the public school tea. hes about the same age as Zack, so about a year-ish younger than Carmen, Gray, Ivy, and Julia.

At the end of their freshman year, Carmen and Julia start dating. Their friends and Carmen's parents know, they keep it secret from everyone else. At the end of the summer everybody (aside from Player) go to the beach for one last day of freedom before school starts. They swim through the mutant goo, and over the next few days discover their powers.

Carlotta IDs each dino: Carmen is a (large/person sized) pyroraptor, Gray is a T. rex, Julia is a troodon, and I still cant decide on Zack and Ivy's dino forms lol. Carlotta and Dexter explain the whole VILE thing and the group just kinda simultaneously goes "welp guess we're superheroes now. cool"

so yea dealing w highschool and also mutant dinosaurs and superpowers. this ones fun bc they can just be stupid kids lol

The Last Wolf:

My werewolf AU. The one that started all this mess and my love for making AUs of this show. It was my first fanfic i ever wrote, and it is very near to my heart. it's also gotten out of hand and become a franchise at this point it's ridiculous. (Seriously i've got a prequel of her parents planned and also a series of shorts set in the universe) It's gonna be a long ride, boys. Hope people still like CS by the time it's done lol

A Thief's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse:

Zombie apocalypse AU! Talked about this one a bit for AU day, and also as of this post I have ~1k words written of the first chapter! I also have a bunch of the major plot points outlined too ;) I wouldn't expect anything soon tho lol.

She wears a wetsuit under the coat bc it's really hard to bite through, especially with rotten jaws. She's got some boots she probably scavenged or traded for, and of course: the Walkman she probably found looting some abandoned building. She collects cassettes to listen to. Gotta keep sane in the end of the world.

How is this one a literal apocalypse and its still more lighthearted than the one based on FNAF lol

Redd Wolf (Five Nights at Redd's):

FNAF AU. I've truly lost it lol. I have this one completely outlined, nothing written but a lot of things are VERY clear in my mind. This ones uh. a lot more intense than even Thief's Guide. It's FNAF. its immense violence and child death. Seriously, Carmen, Player, Gray, Ivy, Zack, and Julia all end up possessing animatronics at some point. It ends happily, but it is based off a horror thing so if that's not your thing b careful <3

its supposed to be more of a mystery that gets unraveled, but if anyone wants specifics of it u can drop an ask :) i only have animatronic designs for Carmen, Julia, and Gray so far tho. I have ideas for the others too.

This is one I wanna share with y'all at some point. its probably the shortest of the AUs I have outlined so far, so yk. maybe in this lifetime lol.

Carmen and the Age of Wonderbeasts:

Mega Jaguar Carmen. This ones more of a ~vibe~ than an actual plot but i like drawing mega jag carm :)

Plushie Dragon:

This one's not an AU, but actually based on doodles of these 2 plush dragons! Matching red/gold and blue/silver dragons named after carmen and julia lol. I'll get around to posting more drawings of em cause they're cute

the plushies <3 (they have spikes u just cant see em:

ik they look goofy i lov them anyways

Wings of Fire:

Wings of Fire AU! Carmen is a rainwing/skywing hybrid (rainwing dad, skywing mom) She can camoflauge, fly decently fast, and has a prehensile tail. She can't breathe fire or use typical venom, BUT she figures out her venom, while not face-melting by itself, IS in fact flammable. again, more of a ~vibe~ than a story and plot, but I like drawing dragons.

Canon Carmen:

She's front and center, the one that started all this.

Way back in 2019, the autism and ADHD departments in my brain came to an agreement: This show is the greatest show of all time.

It was the first fandom I actively contributed to/interacted with. (I still read fics from other fandoms before, but had never been active in a fandom) Like I mentioned with Last Wolf, I had never actually written fanfiction before, and definitely never posted it. I love writing and telling stories (and boy howdy do I have A Lot of stories rolling around my brain). between all of the AUs ive come up with, I've gotten to practice so much worldbuilding and characterization. English classes usually focused on expository stuff, with like. a brief fiction writing thing. So I've definitely gotten to stretch my creative writing muscles with this show, and hopefully I can put em to use on original projects someday <3

I fell in love with the first season, and got ridiculously excited for every new season and the interactive. (heck, i played every possible option for the interactive the day it came out, and binged every subsequent season the day they aired.)

This show has been a big part of my life the last five years, and the original show will always be special to me. It's the reason I started learning to draw people lol, I have a drawing of Carmen from 2020 that I'm still really proud of. It's hung on my bedroom wall to this day.

So thank you, Carmen Sandiego. For everything.

[jellyjamheadart]

I’m going to be taking a small hiatus with crk, not for any bad reason but just because the brain worms have evolved and I’m now hyperobsessed with Carmen Sandiego (curse youuuuu @a-pansexual-with-pancakes , shaking my fist at you /j /affectionate)

I will be keeping drawing requests open though! They just might be responded to pretty late 😅

anyway mwah mwah love yall drink water eat food stay safe

OC Dump #1 - "Night's Deceit", OFMD, Carmen Sandiego, etc.

These were named IDK #9 and IDK #11, but they are definitely more about my OC's. On the blue page, we have two OCs from my "Night's Deceit" story, about a strategist who gets metaphorically dumped by the British Army and saved by a pirate crew. He discovers anti-pirate propaganda and what size kink is.

However, "Ash" is from a different universe - being a he/them OC companion to Izzy Hands from Our Flag Means Death (a series I never watched).

The sniper is another, more fleshed-out OC called Reginus Penn, another companion, this time to Shadowsan from "Carmen Sandiego" (I watched this one (animate the OFMD and I will watch it too)).

Yes, older, morally dark grey Japanese men are my weakness. I feel the need to protect them, so I make up Companions for them. Maybe I should call those CompanionOriginalCharacters. Never mind, I just saw what the acronym looks like.

I do not remember who Theodore Carter is.

Wonderland Services were a group of OCs inspired by the old flash game called "Alice is Dead".

Spoilers? I guess?

who would play this game now anyways

In it, we play as a White Rabbit who wakes up with amnesia in a hole in the ground with Alice's corpse - or rather what is left of it. Alice and the gang are all pictured as some sort of hitmen for hire, with the Red Queen being the main antagonist. In the end, they kill the Rabbit, but they are also killed by... Mary Ann? Was she a part of the og Alice in Wonderland lore? Who knows.

And you will be actually able to play it - it has a Steam page! Alice is Dead: Hearts and Diamonds. I will check it out when it comes out in 2025.

Anyhow, I dreamed out a world in which the premise is very similar. Wonderland Services is an assassin/ kill crew/ cleaning crew for hire type of mess. White Rabbit is a sniper in a love triangle with his coworkers, Cheshire Cat (hacker wanted by the F.B.I.) and Mad Hatter (explosives specialist (probably wanted by O.S.H.A. or something)). However, all nicknames are just that, no deformed/ anthropomorphised characters. Most of them live together in a frat-house-type situation and, fun fact, I think this is one and only of my universes (universai?) in which the Knave of Hearts is straight!

Anyhow, we have some orange blorbos and another portrait of Ash in which they show their beautiful teeths.

Credits to @botankirishima carmen sandiego au.

Pretty much just what if carmen sandiego was in one piece.

Deter Wolfe will still betray his crew and be 'killed' by them and they take his kid.

Carmen later also betrays them and fucks off to do her own thing. She gets the clear-clear fruit in the process.

In the east blue she'll meet player who has a devil fruit similar to vegapunk's. Near longue town they meet Zack and Ivy. They form a crew called the crimson pirates.

They also run into the strawhats for the first time. Many more meetings will follow. Also, around this time, marine branch 177 members Julia and Chase have their first run-in with the crew.

Carmen and her crew mostly just steal stuff, including marine files that magically end up with the revolutionarys. Also, Player knows marine code.

Right before the second half of the grandine shadowsan joins the crew. Also, Marine Branch 177 starts a partnership of sorts to help deal with the v.i.l.e. pirates.

Carmen helps luffy be successful at Impele Down and learns about Sabo. She has already met him and doesn't keep this information to herself.

About 3 weeks prior to Kuma Luffy meets Garp's ex. Catch brunt. They don't get along a d Carmen feels guilty about Luffy getting hurt during a fight that didn't really concern him.

Carmen and Player are sworn siblings. During the time skip team red is just doing their normal stuff and somehow still managing to run into strawhat pirates.

Carmen's a supernova and gets a billion beri bounty before luffy.

V.i.l.e. will take blackbeards' place in the au, I guess Ace killed him before getting captured so both Luffy and carmen can fight yonkos.

During one of the said fights, Player gets hurt, and carmen gets conquers haki.

Carmen's bounty is always just barley above Luffy's.

[jaeellec]

Pfft *major* spoilers for Wandering Star, but at this point it's fine since I don't know when I'll have it in me to get back to writing. So yes...it may or may not have been obvious, but Carmen is a Kid Pirate. She's their helmsman and absolutely loves sailing. Part of her Devil Fruit powers is control of the tides. Thought about typing up the insert for this to go along with the image, but I'm already late on my next mermay piece!

p.s. I know this could still use some work but after her Mermay prompt I wasn't happy with her face and decided giving her some more practice in the form of this, but it turned out to be a 3-day ordeal instead of a quick exercise so yeah...I'm done messing with it 🫠

Retronaissance’s Most Anticipated Games of 2025

Dariwan Has it really been 12 months..again? Already? These years keep going by so fast. This year was…a doozy as usual. We had highs and lows. A few games excelled and some companies fell.Let’s begin with a new segment. Let’s see what the top 3 were last year, if I even own or played the game and how successful it is. Last Year’s Best, Did it Pass the Test? #3. Tekken 8 –Do I own it? –…

[tabbyofwisdom]

Carmen Sandiego was the bomb. Hijacking this post to brag that I was her for Halloween last year cause she still is that cool.

i just made a number munchers reference in a finance meeting and nobody got it because i’m the only one in the elementary school classroom computer generation, so i’m coming to the sweet embrace of tumblr to discuss a very important question:
