Vint and Bonnie sketches! (ignore that the first one says 'Walt' lol)

A rehash of the two from this pretty old post.

Their designs have changed quite a bit but I think I love these ones more! Speaking of changes the stuff from the old post may now be inaccurate...

Oh, and since I would like to develop the series further, feel free to ask about it!!!

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

Same building, different view.

(I'm happy with how this came out so any comments/reblogs are appreciated if you'd like to do so!)

Probably my favorite in the collection of TTPI sketches... I got to practice drawing perspective too!! :)

A comic thumbnail I attempted to improve on Krita! Transcript in the image description.

(I feel compelled to clarify in terms of the story, they aren't dating YET. Vint just doesn't get why Bonnie stays with him.)

((They do eventually date though.))

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

A collection of Bonnibels.

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

The pain of fixating on a character not on art fight that no one will be drawing until they get up there... :,)

Anyway. Crappy artist rendition of the two from earlier!

These are Walt Peters (or Pete Waters or. Idk.) and Bonnibel!

Walt is a detective from maybe the 20s-50s that, out of curiosity, powered on a time machine project from a high schooler and wound up in the 21st century. He's a cold -too cold, sometimes- and calculating guy. Over the course of the series he does learn to have a heart... but the emotions sometimes get in way of his work, in his opinion.

Bonnie (or Bo. Or Bon) is a seemingly ditzy woman from a big city that is one of the first people Walt comes across. However, as previously mentioned she may not be as stupid as she often comes across and this more intelligent side shows further in the series. She has a '60s aesthetic. While at the beginning it's unknown if she traveled from the past too, she may have a deeper connection to one of Walt's cases...

Walt meets Bonnibel at some sort of important building. I know that they become detective partners at some point but I don't know how yet. I do know that Walt is often fed up with Bon's work ethic, but doesn't necessarily hate her, and Bo just really likes working with him. Eventually the big important case shows up but it becomes really hard to work on due to Walt's newly developed feelings for Bonnie. (not specifically that the romance gets in the way! Also speaking of romance though I do ship them I don't think the romance is a main plot point this time. Sorry.)

Design tidbits!

Walt

Walt has arms. And hands! I just find it fun drawing him without 'em. When he's in his detective suit he has black gloves on, nothing fancy.

His coat is supposed to have 3 buttons on it.

His hat is also a taller rendition of the deerstalker (the Holmes hat... look it up!)

Unless he's at home or in a generally comfortable place, Walt doesn't tend to take off his coat. He will, though, add accessories such as a tie or a scarf if the situation calls for it. I always draw him with the hat though.

His face in always in shadow (probably even without the hat). One of his eyes is generally squinted at all times, and his eyes can become more or less stretched depending on the emotion (this means he has NO EYELIDS unless his eyes are fully closed. His eyes show the emotions, not the eyelids or brows.)

The smaller eye generally is the opposite of the direction he's facing. Not necessary if he's looking forward.

Bonnibel

Bonnie has big hair! It isn't overtly big like a beehive, but it isn't really flat like Bel's either.

Oh and freckles. I decided to add them to make her a little more distinct!

She tends to have jewelry on! Mostly bracelets and earrings, though. She doesn't tend to wear necklaces.

She also likes to switch out these jewelries!

She is a very expressive woman! (Close to Enid levels of expressive) Feel free to stretch her emotions more!

Fitting with her accessories she also likes to have many outfits! They're generally 60s too but she has a few modern items in there. (she's kinda like enid but a little psychotic wait what who said that

So why the heck do I include all this information? Well:

Currently I can't get a good laptop photo for the life of me and

I really really want someone to draw them on art fight

That's all I have of them for now. I'm still thinking of a name but I feel like this would work well as an adult swim and/or cartoon network thing, or a webcomic. Both?

Also as much as I want them to get along I feel like these two would have serious beef with the Robo Sleuths.

If you read all this please let me know what you think of them!!! :)

Does Vint have any goals? Like does he want to return to the past, or is he trying to utilise the future in some way?

Same with Bonnie! Does she have any aspirations? I have a feeling she’d been into Rom-coms and write absurd fan fiction for them.

Also! Does this dude who built the Time Machine have any significance? (If it’s not spoilers of course)

Sorry for the questions lol!

Don't be sorry!! :)

Vint's goals actually form the base of the series, though it might be different from what you're describing.

Vint's life goal is to find the killer of a lady close to him (not sure if it's his mom, or sister, or someone he used to love).

To answer your question, though, Vint initially wants to return to the past as he finds the future too confusing. But after discovering the case in the future he chooses to stay to see if he can use the future to solve the case correctly in the past.

Unfortunately I don't have a clear idea for Bonnie's aspiration, although she is trying to escape something from her past (this would be a spoiler to talk about).

The person who built the time machine IS important, however... I again doubt I can hint at anything without spoilers lol

I apologize for the messy answer, but thank you for asking!!!

(Feel free to send more asks about the series!!!!)

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

Finally did something with that long-haired guy... made him a real estate agent. As one does.

(I'll call him Luke for now.)

((And the two may or may not share some family......))

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

Most likely to kiss and tell, mostly likely to apologise first.

Boy, I need to catch up on your OCs, hahaha.

(Questions 2 and 7) Bonnie for both of these.

To sum it up, she's the more emotionally open of the two.

Plus, Vint's more stubborn... unless he's drunk.

@skeletonofagoose @papercutzo would you guys be interested.....

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

asking u the same question!!

Which oc is the most likely to wear the outfit everyday?

pff its okay lol

Out of the two, Vint would be more likely to wear the same outfit daily! Surprisingly this is not from a place of stubbornness... he just really likes the trenchcoat and hat. :)

From this ask game!!!

[artsandstoriesandstuff]

Vint, partying (he has never done so in his life).

20

20. To forget someone's birthday:

Vint is the most likely to forget someone's birthday. Partially because he's drowned in work, and partially because he (says he) doesn't care.
