First drafts for Bee!Kagami and Turtle!Luka

You have no idea how hard the Bee!Kagami was to design… I’m still not 100% satisfied with it.

I thought it would be funny if Kagami’s bee hero name was a real Japanese name just like Ryuko is. Hachimitsu means honey bee so it was perfect.

Turtle!Luka (or Terrapin as I decided to call him) was actually a surprisingly easy design. I’ll probably just tweak a couple of things here and there.

And here they are, ALL of Marinette’s updated kwami swaps from my Timey Wimey AU including her new Multimouse design! Now that she’s FINALLY done and I’m completely satisfied with her designs we can get a move on with the other character designs! YAY!

Ancient Egypt Miraculous Holders (fanart/AU)

When I was looking through my art folder to answer an ask, I came across these commissions for @the-ace-reader that never got posted in full! I'm particularly partial to the Bee Kagami.

Finally did carapace! I actually like most of his suit. The problem is in the shape of the hood, it just makes him look so goofy. The way the bottom of it turns up like that, just looks strange and it makes his head look even bigger. I changed the color palette a bit adding a bit more yellow toned greens and added a few more pattern details to the suit. I also gave him some headphones and replaced the silly goggles with a mask. If alyas eyesight can be fixed by the miraculous than so can his. I hope nino gets a bit more development. I think showing more of his dynamic with adrien would be cool to see as well as seeing his dynamic with marinette get fleshed out a bit.

I’ve finished the water power up redesigns but for some reason I still am not sure if I like them. I think it’s because I left the pink as a secondary color on ladybug. I’m wondering if changing it to blue would work better.

A few times, I've shared my issues with Cat and Ladybug being yin-yang before, and I also wish we had a reason why these specific 7 miraculous are grouped together; today I had a thought that helps with both.

That for the 7, it cycles through who the wish granters are. Maybe through the lunar years, like it's Cat and Ladybug for one year, then Peafowl and Fox, and then Butterfly with either Bee or Turtle.

The 7th could be the neutral one, mediating between pairs in time of conflict, and could help undo a wish that was made prior.

So this can keep LB/Cat as a yin-yang pair granting wishes, but also elevate the other 5 and their significance, and just add a little more on why these 7 are grouped together, and shake up other pairs that can be tied to yin-yang.

Additionally this set up can play into yin-yang existing in various ways (like existing in harmonious duality while others are conflicting forces that balance each other out) and in Wu Xing's theme of cycles and change.

It's also a nice set up to safe guard for wish making having a limited window of time for a specific pair to make a wish.

And could potentially make Fu less of an idiot, either having Ladybug and Cat just don't make the wish, and Gabriel is running on limited translation so he thinks it's them but it's a different pair OR Fu released them as their window for wish granting is near an end, which, could you imagine that when Gabriel got them in s5, his chance to make the wish had come and gone, and now he needs Fox/Peafowl, the latter of which he gave away and is now off in London.

But it's just a little thought, especially as I do just like to shake things up with canon, and I do have a fondness of thinking of other pairs that could exist for yin-yang, one of my favs to explore was Fox/Peafowl as a pair.

But yeah, I thought it could've been a neat idea for the 7 and why they're together, and be a way to elevate the 5 more.

Yes, this is for sure just random kwami swaps and not me trying to convince RozonRozark of The Cheshire au to give Alya the bull. (It can be attached to her mask and she can just not wear it until she transforms, just wear it horrendously wrong or something. Please I am begging I think that would be so freaking cool-)

So here is Bella Blue (Alya), Battle Ox (Alix), and Bixi (Marinette)

Bella's hat is meant to be one of those wide brim flat hats. Similar to the one I drew for my own Bull miracusona. I based the suit on the type of cowboy/cowgirl outfits I'd see dancer's wear.

Meanwhile Battle Ox I based on repeated themes I saw in brawlers or fighter classes in video games. Her collar ended up being shaped like a cow skull which started unintentional but I leaned into it.

Bixi is directly based in Marinette's one time use of the turtle in Cheshire as well as the Miracle Heroes dolls version of turtle marinette. Literally the only one of the dolls that I do like (discounting basic ladybug). I gave her cute pink accents because it was a nice complimentary accent.

More Miss Mouser au!

Archelona is here to join the heroes' side! Still swapping some heroes around, so Alya and Nino are up next. I'm not completely satisfied with her colour scheme yet, but I'll change it accordingly when I figure out what I don't like about it. And Nino and Alya are siblings in this au because I apparently like them with a sibling dynamic more lol

Alya has been working in the same 4-star restaurant since she finished her culinary degree. She's sharing an apartment with her brother Nino, and her life has been perfectly unassuming until she got mixed up in a murder case investigated by the legendary Detective Roux. After successfully clearing her name, she was contacted by a mysterious creature, which gave her the power to assist Detective Roux on a mission to clear the streets of Paris from criminal activity, supernatural or otherwise.

Accidentally deleted this post when I was trying to edit it but guess I can’t undo that.

———————————-

All characters in this AU are aged up and are adults

—————————————————————-

Anyway gonna take this chance to redo this post and upload her updated kwami swaps.

Behold the holy trinity of Kwami swaps part 1

1. Fox! Marinette: Huli Jing, she’s a trickster and her illusions are beautifully dangerous

2. Bee! Marinette: HoneyBee: She’s hella sweet but you don’t wanna piss her off because her sting can hurt

3. Turtle! Marinette: Chelona Jade: Graceful, strong, and powerful she is the protector.

4. Black Cat! Marinette: Lady Noire: Pent up Destruction can be dangerous especially for a rule follower who’s been stuck being perfect

5. Mouse! Marinette: Multimouse: She may be small but she can give you quite a scare when she divides and conquers.

6. Peacock! Marinette: Bleu Celine: A Goddess in human flesh her Sentimonster’s seem like a dream but beware for they are not all they seem.

7. Butterfly! Marinette: Titania: Light as a butterfly, become her champion be blessed by her gift.

—————————————————————————————————

These kwami swaps are definitely going to appear in Timey Wimey soon, we’re getting really close to Marinette’s reveal. I’ll also be posting the other half of this which the Chinese zodiac part of the Miracle Box, yep that’s right my girl is pulling a Kwamibuster on the corrupted hero’s but with a twist. Anywho, updated their designs and was just trying to edit the post but accidentally deleted it so whoops.

So cleaned up their designs and thought might as well post more.

The main seven Miraculouses are still my favorite

[a-flaming-idiot]

So remembered an animatic that said every Ladybug holder was destined to abandon their Black Cat and they'd never see each other again. So I quickly threw together a set of curses for all the Chinese Box.

Ladybug - They are destined to always die alone with their goals unaccomplished

Black Cat - They are fated to always be abandoned by the person they hold closest

Fox - They are fated to always destroy the person they love most

Turtle - When it counts most they won’t be able to protect those they hold most dear

Bee - They are fated to drive others away at their most vulnerable

Butterfly - They are fated to have their good intentions twisted sour

Peacock - They are fated to put their faith and love into the wrong person and destroy themselves

Snake - At the end of things, they will always end up alone

Dragon - They are fated to never have the strength they most need

Bunny - They are destined to see the worst fates of their friends repeat over and over again with no chance to save them

Tiger - They are destined to always squeeze too tight and break those they love

Pig - Their kindness and desire to help will be their downfall

Mouse - They are fated to feel the weight of every task and eventually be crushed by it

Ox - They are cursed to be destroyed by their own growing doubt

Horse - They are fated to always be a moment too slow and be ruined by it

Monkey - Their happiness will come at the cost of the misery of others

Goat - They will be consumed by their passion and desires

Dog - They will devote their lives to a goal and only in their last moments realize they were wrong

Rooster - The people they hold closest will be unreachable

My rough idea is that the Miraculous of the Chinese Miracle Box are so powerful that their magic naturally backlashes onto the user in the form of a curse. So if someone wears a Miraculous for too long, they will be doomed to the curse even if they take it off.

needed to have fun between my mental breakdown and remembered miraculous designs are like my favourite thing so take some marinettes for your troubles

about the designs:

ladybug: canon one but normal shorter pigtails cause the long ones look awkward

cat: canon one with a few alterations to fit my tastes

fox (it's my favourite!!!): based on her multifox design+volpina+colours of a corsac fox

turtle: no fucking clue

bee: based on ladybee and my own delusions
