Drawing For Nothing is out!

Forgot to announce this here but the first ten chapters for Drawing For Nothing have been released! For those who missed the last post, this is a free, digital art book for animated films that were either canceled or bombed due to complicated issues.

https://www.drawingfornothing.com/

More chapters are to come. A few highlights in the next installation will be My Peoples and Larrikins.

Also, if anyone wants to help research, feel free to send a DM! We're also working on a new cover that will feature custom artwork of various characters from these movies. If you think you got what it takes to draw in the style of another artist, we would appreciate the help!

Do have head cannon about erberus

This is about the real Erebus not the Shadow King:

1. This is obvious by the way he talks about her and may be consider canon, but Erebus had a massive crush on Natasia ever since they were both children.

2. Erebus' first kiss was with Natasia and they were both 12 when it happened.

2. Since the name "Erebus" is a nickname given by Natasia and not his real name, I guess that his real name is either Oliver or Thomas.

3. Erebus liked punk and rock n roll music during his teenage and young adult years.

4. He dislike or had negative opinions about Martin. His hatred of Martin grew after he found out Martin betrayed Natasia.

5. It was Erebus' idea to released and monitor Natasia as an attempt to help her until the Regents added the part that she needs to bear an heir.

6. Since I like the theory of Sel being the Shadow King's son, the real Erebus was killed around early 2001. If the theory ends up being not true then the real Erebus was killed by the Shadow King around the same time Bree was revealed to be the true Scion of Arthur.

7. Erebus (not the Shadow King) is the biologically father of Selwyn. He and Natasia had an affair while she was married to Selwyn's human father.

8. He was an orphaned and raised by a human family (a vassal family) until he went to the Merlin Academy.

With talk of a Gambit movie, I have a particular story vote:

Thick As Thieves by Chris Claremont. It's not Remy's inital origin story but I adore it. Imagine a movie with young Remy LeBeau and child Ororo Munroe.

I don't even really need the frame-by-frame story. I'd just love to see them connect. I'd love to see the action of the Thieves Guild and the Shadow King. He's very Robin Hood - centric in this story. It's a reminder to the audience of just how great of a fighter he is without his powers. He's also highly protective of little Ro the whole time which makes him such a compassionate character, even as a sassy thief. A perfect mix of action and found family.

And at the end of the story, when Ro gets her memories back, she takes him to meet the X-Men. Which is the PERFECT ending for an origin movie for any X-Man character, in my opinion.

My Legendborn Cycle Musings & Theories

May 2023 is when I first got into this series and I've been hooked ever since. I've read Legendborn and Bloodmarked at least twice and I have some thoughts about the books and series in general. So without further ado:

Spoilers ahead!

First of all, I'm glad I waited to make this post because recently more information has been revealed about the next upcoming book (Oathbound), and that instead of the series being a trilogy of books it'll be a tetralogy (4 part book series).

Oathbound

I strongly believe that the Shadow Court is definitely going to be unleashed that was part of the bargain Bree made with the Shadow King after all.

Vera’s warning to Bree at the end of Bloodmarked: “Chaos thrives on imbalance.” In Oathbound, is Bree going to become villainous or corrupted in some form? Since she doesn’t have her ancestors to balance or influence her since she closed the ancestral stream?

Since the third book is called Oathbound I wonder if this means oaths will be broken or removed. Obviously, Natasia's Kingsmage Oath to Martin Davis had to have been removed. Could the same thing happen possibly between Nick and Sel?

At the end of Bloodmarked, the main trio: Bree, Nick, and Sel have become separated. Since this is Bree's story first and foremost I think the book will still only be from Briana's point of view. I don't think we'll be getting multiple points of view. However, I'm not quite sure.

Selwyn Emrys Kane

There’s more to Selwyn Kane than meets the eye. One of the main themes in the Legendborn Cycle is ancestry and inheritance.

Theory 1: Erebus (the Shadow King) is Selwyn’s father. Erebus is described as a father-like figure towards Sel and he has a history and a clear fondness for Natasia (He knew where she was at the end of Bloodmarked). However, we know that the Order supposedly monitored Natasia closely while they ensured she gave birth to an heir. Obviously, since both her and Sel are powerful Merlins there must be more to discover about their bloodline. Also, it is mentioned how closely Sel resembles Merlin his ancestor not only in appearance but also in mannerisms. Sel is a prodigy and has the rare ability to transform into an Owl like his ancestor Merlin. Not to mention, the skill he used to craft aether constructs to hold Bree together after her injury which isn’t easy to do and most likely would’ve killed other Merlins attempting to do it.

Theory 2: Maybe Selwyn’s bloodline has ancestral ties to someone on the Shadow Court. 

Nicholas Martin Davis

He's going to be leading the faction of the Order that's still loyal to the Knights of the Round Table.

Maybe he'll continue to forge a further alliance with the Line of Morgaine. Nick will then be further exposed to how they live and maneuver outside of the Order. He is trying to find a solution to stop the Legendborn Cycle without the Scion of Arthur having to die. In Bloodmarked, he found something out but he didn't get to elaborate on it further.

In General

I think the relationship between Sel and William is underrated.

There’s still much we don’t know about Cambions and unions. So far, we know:

Full Demon + Human = Cambion

Human + Cambion = Cambion

But what about: Full Demon + Cambion = ?

Cambion + Cambion =  ?

Are these unions even possible or allowed and could they produce offspring?

On the cover of Bloodmarked, I think Bree is wearing the outfit that she wore during the Rite of Kings ceremony.

Valechaz is clearly enamored and fascinated with Bree and he's such a wildcard. Valec at times can also be hard to read. Will he be a friend or foe going forward?

This may be an unpopular opinion, but in terms of a TV series adaptation of the Legendborn Cycle, I would prefer that it be an animated TV series rather than a live-action series.

Drawing For Nothing version 3 is officially out! This includes two new chapters, The Shadow King and Wild Life.

The Shadow King was a joint effort between Henry Selick's Cinderbiter Studios and Pixar. A stop motion feature about two brothers who discover that shadows can exist on their own, and a shadow master must arise to tame them.

Wild Life was Disney's short lived experiment into more adult animation. Had it been completed, it would've been their first computer animated film! Set in a warholian New York, Kitty Glitter, a disco diva, discovers love and empathy when attempting to gain revenge through a talking elephant. This chapter includes never before seen concept art that we've been really excited to share

The rest of the book, including the cover, has had some slight expansion and revision. Take a look!

I'm not sure when the Legendborn TV adaptation series will be released (if ever)? I've been lately thinking of my own fan casting.

I've only done side characters since I have a hard time with the main characters. I'm saving the main characters especially the Trio for last.

I want to show you what I got so far but before I show you I want to say that please be nice. You don't have to agree with my fan cast.

Here's what I got (the adults and parents of the trio):

Faye Carter Matthews - Tika Sumpter

Edwin Matthews - Colman Domingo

Natasia Kane - Eva Green

"Erebus" / The Shadow King - Oscar Isaac

Lord Martin Davis - Antony Starr

Anna Rheon (Nick's Mother) *Flashback* - Brooklyn Decker
