I would absolutely love to see your take on a Hades style Elspeth!
Here goes! I know I brought it up, but it’s my first time trying this style so I don’t think it’s quuuite there yet. I still like how this came out!
Even if it means I’m still exploring the style, I wanted to draw Elspeth first, because of the whole escaping Erebos schtick. I could totally see her as the protagonist of a Hades sort of game (that’s why I didn’t draw her with a weapon—I figured since she has multiple, she’d need a weaponless pose)
I know it’s not perfect, but I really had fun trying to replicate this art style 😅
I’ll never get there, but if I put the work in, maybe I’ll get close enough that I can chase just behind perfection — and have a front-row seat as you achieve it.
For the Alternate Hermits day, I drew CuteGuy and HotGuy in the style of Batman Beyond!
I really wanted to include one of the many superhero cartoons I like in this challenge and Alt Day provided the perfect opportunity since Grian and Scar's personas include superhero characters!
To learn more about Batman Beyond and see my style references, continue below the cut.

Batman Beyond is a Batman cartoon that takes place in 2039, 20 years after Bruce Wayne, now in his 70s, has retired as Batman.
For two decades Gotham was without a Batman until a teen named Terry McGinnis stumbles onto Wayne Manor in an attempt to escape a gang called the Jokerz. After Terry discovers the Batcave, he takes on the mantle of Batman and begins his crime-fighting career under the tutelage of Bruce himself.
Batman Beyond is one of the best Batman series (next to Batman: The Animated Series of course). Terry is a fantastic protagonist and the relationship between Terry and Bruce really drives the show, in addition to its great visuals. With its angular designs and neo-noir setting, I would argue this is the most visually striking of the classic DC cartoons.
If you like Batman, definitely give Batman Beyond a watch!
Style references:
The show is very angular. The whole show has a very art deco meets Tron aesthetic.
This poster was my reference for the background, but I rendered CuteGuy and HotGuy in the style of the show itself.
What happens when you put multiple rivulets in one place? They go sneef snorf of course!
From left to right, the design owners are: me, Mimcooo, @skybristle, and @soaricarus! i think sky's and soar's designs are really pretty and i like how silly mim's design is :]
I just started another relisten of rqg and I thought it would be fun to animate that moment from episode 4 when Bertie drops a piano on a guy.
The audio of the piano falling down is piano crash.wav by CGEffex on freesound.org because apparently I'm not allowed to throw my mom's piano out of the window.
I also put just the backround under the cut because I do kinda like it.
