Ooooo! What’s this? An original character from my original story? Ignore the Disney Wish redesign tag. Heh. Heh. Glances nervously from side to side.
I tried doing a chicken scratch art style thing. Inspired by the artists elektricnka (on instagram) and @chasefoxart.
So this is my OC Viera (means faith, but I might change her name later). She did start as a redesign of Asha from Wish. Everyone was planning on doing rewrites of that movie when it came out. So I decided to join the band wagon. But I didn’t feel like keeping the original Spanish inspired setting. I’m already exhausted from doing endless research on early 20th century Korea. So I decided to change the setting to something inspired by my home country of Slovakia. Specifically 1950’s Slovakia. There’s still a lot of research to be done but having some basic knowledge makes things a whole lot easier.
I gave her a modified version of the Kralovany Kroj. I mainly simplified the crazy amounts of detail. I liked Asha’s concept art design where her colour palette was orange red. This is the closest traditional dress I could find to that (each village in Slovakia has their own dress).
Viera is an introverted book worm like Asha in the concept art (if you can’t tell I really like Wish’s concept art). She dreams of becoming a magician. You could say it’s her wish! In my version instead of giving wishes to… president Magnifico (got to give him a new name) people give their ability to do magic to the government on their 18th birthday. The government claims that with the combined magic they can cast bigger better spells than any one individual.
Originally the people would use their magic to help their crops. Now the crops are dying because the government’s corrupt. To make matters worse the hospitals don’t work either and Viera’s father’s sick. She tries to heal him with her limited magic knowledge. But it’s not working. So she sings This Wish (she figures out on her own the government is lying). And who shows up? The star boy! Of course he’s in this! Except now he’s a god, based off of the Slavic pagan god Yarilo.
There’s far more to the story. Such as developing Viera’s (Asha’s) grandfather more. Developing more Dahlia (I got rid of the rest of the friends). Themes of being an outcast. Now this one I’m proud of. For a while I couldn’t figure out how to keep Viera biracial. Then I decided to make her mother a traveler. A wild spirit that couldn’t stay in one place for too long. Viera has a complicated relationship with her. She left when Viera was small. Because of Viera’s skin colour she’s often ostracised. As an outsider she can see the faults of the system better than anyone. But thanks to her father she has an undying love for the culture and wants the best for the people.
What do you think of this story? I will probably get around to working on it in the summer. I’ve got a thing I still gotta finish.

man, you know, nobody asked me, but I have such conflicting opinions on some of the fat falin art, where on one hand: it's always nice to see A Fat Body in fanart anywhere + it's being done in positive ways, for funsies and on the other hand, there is something so familiar about how you are automatically The Fat One if you are a woman simply standing next to a more petite woman, bc I've had a 0% hitrate in seeing people change Marcille's body type and keep Falin's, or change both of them. it's just Falin
#it gives me a negative feeling that I seldom/never get from seeing fat art which is rare#like she's not fat out of thin air For Fun And No Other Reason and she's not fat bc of context#(out of thin air being like just picking a character you like and changing their design just cuz. Kabru maybe.)#(and Because Of Context being the way ppl draw fat Usagi from sailor moon. which i have been meaning to do btw)#but rather she's fat just bc to be Not the thinnest woman in the room is to be fat. like it happens specifically by scale#because marcille is so much physically smaller and petite and falin is bigger in the ways that a Human Woman is bigger#than an elf woman#and it's funny bc it's something i see all the time already#people also really don't seem to have an interest in making marcille butch in fanart in a way#that is sort of sad for me bc it's like ah well she's the thin small one so of course she gets to be feminine#if you're physically bigger then of course you get to be masc of course of course of course...#i also love good butch art esp fat butch stuff but this is about the phenomenon where if you're with#a thinner shorter woman then that means you're the butch now which is a place I have been to#and I did not like it there#I think part of why That sticks it to me is bc marcille has such a Butch Girlfriend personality and falin acts so demure LMAO#but she's slightly bigger so the writing is on the wall#sergle.txt#Godspeed to you if you choose to read these thoughts in bad faith bc I can't give you more clarifying statements if I try#like I said. conflicting feelings#i don't know if anyone else has similar thoughts it May Just Be Me#I don't think ppl think about this stuff when they make their fan redesigns but it gives me a certain feeling

Do you enjoy underfell? I thought you disliked aus /genq
i don't dislike the concept of AUs itself, I'm just not a fan of like... the subculture that spawned around them in the UT fandom specifically and how it eventually took over almost all canon content (especially when it limits itself to the bros)
i like aus visually! i am an artist at heart after all. it's just that, if I'm going to care about them as stories and not just fun design ideas, my bar is uhh almost impossibly high the further you move from canon lolol.
#uf being one of those! the story is centered on certain characters (mainly asgore) behaving very ooc#so as a stickler for canon I don't have much interest in it#but there is a very clear visual idea and motif in the redesigns that ties every character together very efficiently#and also fucks like a rabid rhino#so i can appreciate its visual/aesthetic aspects instead#i mean you can't understate the impact that good *artists* specifically had on the proliferation of aus back in the day#good writing is almost inseverable from good characterization because dialogues and characterization ARE an integral part#of what makes writing good. while good art (as much as it too is tied to its own conventions) is free-er from the bounds of accuracy#as was as being easier & faster to consume. writing has to be read first. you can just look at a piece of art and go ''wow that looks sick''#without thinking about logical details/accuracy#you can show a pic of sans to an artist who's never touched the game and they might draw you the most gorgeous piece of art you've ever seen#it's significantly harder to do for writing#swap aus are a fun design challenge to see how you'd incorporate different aspects of some characters visual signatures into another#it's a game of translation of sorts. but if you want to treat it like a story well... the matter becomes a lot more complicated#answered asks#au tag

tes ocs (and miraak) brainrot hours yet again
#the elder scrolls#tes skyrim#skyrim#tesblr#miraak#dovahkiin#three of them in fact#this was supposed to be a character reference/redesign for solinar (the one on the left) but got out of hand#silvarin got so many details on his armor because i felt bad for not writing any plot for him lmao#the glaive design is based on the guandao -- it's supposed to be akaviri so i think it fits#also i think you can see why i draw solinar way more often than him lol#people who hc miraak as having braids i am holding your hand and nodding and slow blinking#but i was too lazy to draw them here lol#prolly should've given him some sort of magic or a staff maybe... but oh well#also solinar and silvarin's eyes are amber... i just decided to have them entirely black here

I am loathe to say it’s the Devil’s taste.
Finally got around to redesigning my PC Tatyana. She’s my main character, but as mentioned, I haven’t gotten to play Demetria in campaign for a bit because she’s been sealed up in Ravenloft with another PC. I’ve said it before but my DM had every one of their players make two characters right off the bat in case of death. So far, I think everyone except one has had to play their backup because of temporary/permanent death or incapacitation. Smart move, then! I love playing Emilia but I miss Dima!
#curse of strahd#dnd#dungeons and dragons#dnd fanart#what’s happened to her since I last updated uhhhh#oh dima got bodied because strahd found out she brought back Leo. and by that I mean bitten.#She released a prisoner in Ravenloft and no one knows except Escher who she convinced to do it#mostly it’s been a tortured and gothic existence#dnd character#dungeons and dragons art#cos pc#CoS PC: Demetria#I redesigned Dima to better match what was in my head#and because I saw someone had tagged a piece of art of her (by a friend) as Ireena#I really didn’t want Ireena to be tagged as a hwite woman#even as a different character#it sort of fundamentally bugged me for weeks.#so I figured I might as well make the change I’ve wanted to since she was revealed as being the taty soul holder#not that every pc ireena/tatyana has to do this. just my personal cup o tea!#so uh yeah that’s it!!!!

thiswas the biggest downgrade in history i dont care that its been said a million times its been said a million times becauese its true
#its not even that i think the doll on the right is bad or anything its the fact that they decided to make that her default design#in the movies and webisodes and stuff and had all her dolls after that have that same hair#like the original was soo cute .#and the newer design isnt BAD i do find it cute too and wouldnt have an issue with it if it was used on a separate character#or she only looked like that for one doll or movie or whatever#(like how some of the other characters will have a wildly differnet hair color/cut for 1 doll and then go back to normal after )#but the original was just better. and the redesign takes away a lot of what was unique about her design#(especially her hair . sucks that shes one of the only characters wiht that sort of hair texture and they permanently straightened it)#honestly considering its kind of emphasized a lot that howleen is one of the youngest characters in the cast#and is still finding herself and her style#her look being changed drastically from doll to doll would fit her character pretty well actually#but they only really changed it once. and then kept it like that even though the original was better . SAD !#also lol werewolf character havibg a pet hedgehog. insert unleashed joke

redesign of the Vespa Kids from book of boba fett
thoughts & closeups under cut
so i tried to keep their general appearances/colors intact while adding some actual personality (because i think the main problem with the original designs is that they feel like extras, not side characters).
Red: Zabrak orphan who grew up on Tatooine. 18 years old, was a member of the local insurgent group around the end of the empire era. Has a combo blaster/interrogation droid arm. Speeder is a repurposed version of Maul's speeder from phantom menace.
Blue: Human raised in the non-Tatooine parts of the Outer Rim. 23 years old, known assassin who worked for Jabba. Uses a scavenged magnaguard-type electrostaff. Has basically a version of the mandalorian helmet visors built into his face. Speeder is an abandoned scout trooper speeder.
Yellow: Tusken orphan from the clans around the podrace area. 19 years old, became a bounty hunter after his tribe (and bantha) were killed by the Pikes to expand spice routes. Has a Vader-style chest panel and rocket feet. Speeder is a custom pod attached to one of Sebulba's engines, with attached rancor teeth and horns from his late bantha.
Green: Human who grew up on Coruscant, but family fled the Empire to Tatooine around A New Hope. 21 years old, originally worked as a local enforcer for various Hutts. Has super battle droid arm & leg attachments. Speeder is stolen from local nikto gang.
original designs for reference:
#star wars#bobf#tbobf#book of boba fett#redbean art#vespa kids#i tried to keep at least one original design element completely intact for each of them#so Red has the same hair and similar vest#Blue has the grey slacks and similar shirt#Yellow changed a bit more because i couldnt find a full reference for yellow or green but he still has the grey jacket with orange shoulder#and Green kept the green ombre hair#the podracer speeder is mostly because i wish they had more salvaged podracer part stuff#like. those things crash a LOT. obviously local people are going to pick up whatever still works#Yellow definitely has the most distinct speeder silhouette#and Greens cybernetics turned out well#the original design for her looked a little too star trekky so i just gave her a flightsuit#but yeah part of the problem is that they originally looked too clean#not just shiny but also no scratches or dents or scorch marks#so for this i was going for something like the esb boba armor#and design wise something like krayts claw but dustier#so funny how pretty much everyone from tatooine tries to leave as soon as possible because its dry and sandy and full of criminals)#but then boba (career criminal who grew up on kamino) goes to tatooine once and is like I LIVE HERE NOW#also they originally didnt really have clear motives?#so for my redesigns Red is kind of ezra-like and sees bobas crime gang as sort of family (the rancor is their dog)#Blue is there because boba (and fennec) are famous and hes hoping to get recognized as an established assassin#Yellow respects boba's tusken family and wants revenge on the pikes#Green is there because she's getting paid

I finally found the time to draw these two again! Libelle and her still unnamed pink Twilek girlfriend!
#star wars#oc#my ocs#zabrak#twilek#libelle#I need to redesign the pink one one of these days#Her design is too simple next to Libelle#I feel like I came up with a name for her at some point? but I think I forgot it again :(#Anyway does anyone want to hear about these two#They both work on a team of sort-of-bountyhunters? But instead of hunting people they’re more like exterminators but for bigger creatures#And Libelle is sort of the creature expert of the group#she knows a lot about many different creatures!#for example if they’re an endangered or invasive species or cultural significance to the planet and stuff like that#She can also help fight I guess but that’s more the pink one’s specialty#The pink one is part of the muscle of their crew but also part of the coming up with a strategy process#I might put weapons expert on her resume as well

More redesigns of the constructicons
Text below the cut in case you can’t read my cursed handwriting
Longhaul
-2nd set of armor that’s cold resistant
-Long range weapon proficient
-Large
-quiet type
-Ex-officer
-Protective
The symbol on the gun is a LH kinda combined together, though the design may change. I don’t know guns design so here is what I have for cybertronian guns.
Also the form part of his body is meant to mimic a torn jacket, or one of those detective coats with half of it missing.

Hi pookies heres the long awaited Oscar drawing :3333
If you've seen my last post, i said there I assigned John, Arthur & Oscar as the sun moon and star
I wish ive been more creative with how i incorporate the star symbols on my Oscar's design but it's okay I can always do another redesign :3
Stars symbolize hope, destiny and guidance. Which SCREAMS Oscar doesn't it? Oscar being Arthur's hope?? Guidance?? Im so ill
I can't decide whether I want to assign the daffodil or blue iris to oscar bc both flowers is so him!!!! For now he gets blue irises. I'll draw him with daffodils next time ofc
You may have noticed the ring he's wearing. well apparently a ring on the middle finger symbolizes life purpose!! I drew Oscar with a ring with the moon symbol...im sure by now you know which character that symbol represents (its arthur)
My Oscar is definently going to have a redesign soon as im not fully content with this design. Im thinking maybe embroided star symbols on his garb... Can this kind of garb have embroidery? Bc i literally have not seen it have any sort of pattern /genq
#ohh im going to collapse symbolism make me ill#hi Ash i stole your cross design. that one with the star in the center aha i hope you dont mind#stained glass background save me#oscar malevolent#malevolent#malevolent podcast#fanart#assigning flowers to malevolent characters#mxpaisleysart

It's Dani! I like redesigning characters sue me
I really wanted her design to have more visual indications of her instability, cause I imagine having a ghost half that is constantly in a state of breaking down would have some effects on her human half as well. Like her core is trying to stabilize itself and causes a sort of infection by trying to use the energy from her human half which inadvertently throws things off balance even more.
Thoughts on each design past the break
Human half: I wanted it to be obvious at first glance that she's not quite right or put together, so parts of her hair is white, and one of her eyes has turned green. I also thought it would be cool if her human form constantly has that red-pupil camera effect since it has a bit of a creepy connotation. I also added some skin discoloration/scars, and carried over the ears and fangs from her ghost form. Another very small detail I added was having her shoelaces untied to further make her appear unkempt/unstable.
Ghost half: Her human half doesn't affect her ghost half as much as the opposite, but her eyes with the black sclera is blue rather than green, I basically just switched the herochromia. Her skin should be a more vibrant blue/green in good health, rather than the uneven dull green caused by her instability, and of course the splotches of human skin tone shouldn't be there. For her ghost costume, I wanted it to seem more like a transformation of the clothes she already wears (hoodie, big pants, gloves, sneakers) since she didn't have a hazmat portal incident like Danny. I felt like pushing her asymmetrical design and making it a bit messy/unrefined would also be a good visual que to her instability. And lastly, I just really wanted to get rid of the crop-top, wide hip, lipstick, & eyeliner thing from the original bc that comes across as weird to me since she's supposed to be like 12.

I messed up. /j
Introducing...
THE AMAZING DIGITAL ARCADE PARTY!
Yeah, that's right, I caved in.
Basically the exact same show except its established lore and setting is more largely inspired by archive compilations of popular vintage arcade games of the 80s and 90s such as Pac-Man’s Arcade Party, as well as the different takes within the sci-fi / fantasy genre by the likes of Wreck-It Ralph, Tron: Legacy, and Infinity Train.
==
= BACKGROUND (in a nutshell) 💿 =
In an attempt to save their dying business, C&A developed and manufactured the first hybrid arcade game of its own kind that combined other popular arcade games and home console games with virtual reality. However, just as the company’s luck was turning around, numerous lawsuits from game companies by the likes of Nintendo and families were filed against the company for their product, from apparently “ripping-off” Super Mario Bros. in its entirety to causing many children to either inexplicably fall unconscious or suffer from amnesia after the cabinet’s headset was put on. Just then, as C&A announced they’ll be temporarily recalling the product to fix its issues, a shocking discovery was already made by investigators that would soon bring the company to its demise: the game’s AI had gone rogue, and once a human mind dies from losing one of the games in any way, they are either permanently reincarnated as a personified cartoon character of themselves or just straight up die in real-life depending on the outcome.
==
= ART N’ STUFF 🎨 =
(might wanna make a separate masterpost for that in the future but oh well)
NES Ragatha
Pomni and Caine redesigns
==
= Q&As and BOUNDARIES (sort of) 🎙️ =
"Are there any plans to make a full webcomic out of this?" - Uhhhh, mayyybe? I'm not entirely sure, honestly. While there may be a few side comics and artwork from my head I want to get out sometime, I don't really have much plans for this AU that'll be worth telling a full story right now since I feel there is plenty of things that I've yet to figure out and develop in a matter of time, particularly the setting and characters (especially considering the OG show itself has only 2 episodes out as of writing and I only have mobile apps like ibisPaint X to make this all possible at the moment).
"Can I make fanfics and OCs for this AU?" - Of course! I've seen a lot of incredible things from the community, especially in regards to alternate universes, so you're absolutely more than welcome to share whatever's on your mind as long as your heart's in the right place. I can't really guarantee I'll see every bit of it since I do have some personal biz of mine to take care of at any moment, but I'll be happy to reblog them whenever I get the chance. Just tag me and we all good. :)
"Are there any canon ships in this AU?" - Yes. Yes, there are. Well, only BunnyDoll (Jax x Ragatha) to be specific. HOWEVER, you are free to ship whoever you want here! Showtime (Caine x Pomni), ButtonBlossom (Pomni x Ragatha), it's all okay. The choice is yours, a romantic buffet! (Plus, depending on the quality of my writing, I'm not even planning to dwell too much into it for now, aside from the side comics that will.)
==
That's all for right now. Enjoy! :)

Queen Aemma Arryn
Queen Aemma married Viserys I, her cousin... so she and all her sibling-in-laws have a Targaryen look about them. She should look like Rhaenyra, but i have her wearing pale blue-purples for a sort of Royal-Arryn crossover as well as slightly more blonde hair and a haggard appearance with her medical complications. Her jewelry and ornamentation references the other Royal Ladies in this series but the gems are bigger, and she has more of a surcote going on because I need future generations to use that as the basis of some of the later fashion in Westeros. Did I make this all a lot more complicated by including my previous redesigns in the same world? Yes, yes I did.
I am the artist! Do not post without permission & credit! Thank you! Come visit me over on: instagram, tiktok or check out my coloring book available now \ („• ֊ •„) /
