A little late but! I was inspired by Megaman X Dive to do this redraw of Maverick/Awakened Zero when the character came out a month ago. This is a 5 year difference between the two drawings and WOW does it show. The original assignment I was given was to used a limited warm-color palette and who-else would I have chosen? XD

The character has such a deep importance to me in this community, especially the RP aspect of it, as I used to write an AU Maverick Zero, who I actually still write from time to time (you might recognize him as the blond I affectionately call MZ).

Hope everyone enjoys!

Vesper’s life is fairly normal. College is almost over and his study companions are tiny animals with skulls for faces, and his familiar with molten gold for eyes. A bookworm through and through, Vesper has a hard time interacting with others, and it only gets worse when he starts crushing on his best friend, Volt. 

The only problem here is Volt is a demon, and demons… don’t do romance well.

Read on Tapas & Webtoons!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a test page and a place holder! This is our first comic, and Kara and I are likely to take this down once we have our pages in order, it will still be free to read on our other socials! <3 

~Cristal

So, future comic stuff. (This is probably not going to make headway until Kara and I get far, far into Soul-Bound, but I’m still super excited!!)

AXIS is a comic that takes place in the far future. Humans have expanded past the Milky Way and pushed boundaries to find more places to branch their growing empire. It may look beautiful with towering spires and space stations the size of planets, sparkling metal and flashing lights, but just because the human society has expanded, does not mean it’s free from the corruption inside it’s walls. 

The majority of the comic revolves around a Bounty Hunter– Ravaxis. He’s got millions of enemies, and few allies, but he finds a friend and companion in the least expected place; his own ship. Helios is added as an upgrade, an AI that can keep the Hunter’s home maintained and provide much needed insight to keeping the human alive, but perhaps there’s more to him than just being extra parts. With Ravaxis and Helios running from more than just other Hunters, but a large megacorp looking to take back stolen tech, they’ll learn that there’s more to each other than being on the run together.

——-

Meet Helios! He’s Ravaxis’ AI companion, tasked with running all processes on The Axis. Artificial Intelligence’s have long been banned by the Military for their unpredictable nature, but there’s more to that well kept secret than danger. Helios is a newly made AI, roughly aged to be about two years in run-time. He has no idea who made him or what his purpose was before Ravaxis bought him as an upgrade for The Axis.

Originally, he didn’t have a face, or an appearance beside the red screens and text that would appear when he spoke, but as The Axis continued to be upgraded, he began to evolve along with it, choosing a face to man the ship. Who knows? Perhaps it will become useful as the story progresses.

The Axis is the most common set of scenery, as it is not only Rav’s home, but his base of operations and getaway vehicle. It’s a small experimental ship with a lot more power than even it’s owner is aware of. Perhaps with Helios running its diagnostics, they’ll discover that the sleek spacecraft is more than more than pretty parts.

I am so sorry for my absence! Kara and I have been working nonstop of the scripting phase of our webcomic, so I haven’t been doing much art as of late… To make up for it, this last week I’ve been burning down the candle to make these! These are Soul Wines, and I had a lot of fun making them. Kara and I have been talking, and they’ll be stickers for sure, and possibly charms/keychains!!!

Here’s the excerpt we have for them. ^v^

Soul Wine.

Souls can be used in a variety of ways, but a common one for Demons to use is Soul Wine. It is a ‘wine’ that has the appearance of stars in a bottle, most of the time, the liquid is semi-transparent to not very, but can be seen through (look to: Apache Tears stones). Upon peering in, sometimes one can see a 'star’ or tiny ball of light– a soul. The wine is made by adding a minimum of 8 to thousands of souls in a bottle, and letting it keep for a number of years, after all of the souls’ essence has melded into the dark/transparent black color the wine is known for. 

A 'cheap’ wine is made when souls of the wrong kind of sin are put in the same bottle. It tastes poor, and like a gross mix of 'flavor.’   Humans and mortals cannot drink this wine, as the monstrous entity that is the combination of souls will attempt to overtake the drinker’s body, and add their soul to the concoction before possessing the empty shell. These die fast due to the lack of the correct host, but are extremely dangerous.  

Soul Wine can change in appearance, and there are different kinds for each sin. 

Wrath, for instance, is the darkest of the seven in color, and the bottle housing such aggressive souls will occasionally rattle with fury. The souls inside will sometimes take the appearance of hands attempting to break the glass.

Greed sometimes has a gold 'stars’ instead of white, and occasionally gems, currency, and precious metals will accumulate on the bottom. Don’t place your hand inside, or it will try to pull you in as well. This does not matter if you are a demon, immortal, or not. Drinking it is fine for immortals, but do not take things that are not yours.  

Lust smells like the things you already adore, normally the perfume of a person you love and/or the scent of your favorite place. It is the most aromatic of the seven drinks.  Drinking it sometimes makes you a little more truthful than you want to be. There are lipstick stains and lavender that appear on the inside, though this is not necessarily what it smells like.  

Looking into the bottle of Envy will make you see what you desire the most. Different than Lust, it shows you what you desperately want, and cannot have, or have yet to achieve. Glancing inside, sometimes you will see eyes watching you back. Green smoke billows from it.  

Gluttony is pitch black, and consumes light. Nothing glows from inside it, though there are souls within the mixture. Sharp teeth curl around the inside of the bottle, and will eat anything that falls into it. The more souls in a bottle of Gluttony, the more teeth there will be.

Pride is the lightest coloring of Soul Wine, and is known for its sparkle. It literally glitters as it’s poured into a glass, and occasionally rings and pear necklaces, and diamond earrings will fall out as well. The bottle radiates glowing light with a dark shadow underneath. Sometimes peacock feathers are inside.  

Sloth is thicker than the others, and pours out with the viscosity of honey. The souls in this bottle are larger than average and function in the glass like ice cubes, floating lazily to the top. If you squint, you can see text and words floating around. Sometimes these words grant inspiration, though you may have to battle with the desire to give any effort to such ideas. Sometimes sand gathers at the bottom.

((This one was a doozy. First time drawing crystals or dragons, so I spent a heavy amount of time on this. The dragon was made with the help of my wife, @super-tired-robot, thanks so much babe! ;v;

Meet KiZ’met. He’s the only other Wrath Demon in existence, who chooses to take on the affinity of an ice dragon. He’s the opposite of Voluntas in every way, from attitude (chill, laid back, rarely shows anger, extremely patient), all the way to appearance– he’s naturally taller than the other Wrath Demon. 

KiZ’s way of doing things is usually very methodical, though still extremely wrathful. Everything he does, is done with the intention of making something end up going his way, even if his way covers the span of a few hundred years. Of course, whoever is unfortunate to end up on the wrong end of his good graces is sure to get what’s coming to them in the worst way possible– he makes sure of it. 

For reasons no one is truly sure, KiZ has been collecting lost souls and the injured and loyal for a few hundred years. Even his Bounded partner(s), AleXander, was obtained in such a manner. Some say he’s building an army, others… say he’s just greedy. 

No one really knows…

Noize and Encore. 

Both are bad-ends for the current Sonariverse, though they fall in separate directions. One (Encore) was captured and forced to work for William Tumult, the other (Noize) killed and chose to be a Dictator in Tumult’s place. 

Both of them needed a nice reference sheet for forever, and finally it’s here! (Only took ten thousand years to make lol.)

Azure!! This is my AU Cyberelf X. I like overcomplicating things, but still had fun with his design. <3 

He’s a mentor figure to Seraph, my AU Copy X, confined to Axis, otherwise known as the Resistance Base. This is due to him being forced to seal the Dark Elf in his body– Though not in the way you’d expect. As mentioned in Seraph’s bio, Cial is the villain of this story, a human with a strong hatred for most machines and imperfection. 

She wanted to seal the Dark Elf in X’s body, and use it to control the entirety of Neo Arcadia as its new ruler, and the planet beyond. Unfortunately this didn’t work as well as she’d hope, as X absconded the city injured, with the Dark Elf attempting to break free of his metal skeleton. This drained him of most of his energy, to the point where, once he found a place to hide his body, he could no longer leave cyberspace or places where he could embed himself (much like a NetNavi). 

His personality is fairly chill, though he has zero tolerance for those threatening peace. He chose to train Seraph to defeat Cial upon finding the Copy had a bone to pick with the woman as well. After revealing the location of Seraph’s (his old) Mythos armor, an armor set with adaptive properties, he parted to cyberspace to rest with the phrase, “Strike down the Maverick with extreme prejudice!”

Crimson, an AU Zero that hails from the same universe as Seraph and Azure. 

(Copied from Kara’s RP blog, as she RPs him. You can interact with all three of them on my blog @thegatesofinfinitespace and Kara’s @overx) 

The “Crimson Wraith” is a Zero who hails from a time in the very distant future. As it turns out, life hadn’t changed that much. Humans and machines continue to be at odds, although things aren’t QUITE as they appear at first glance…

His chassis was recovered by Cial, who eventually convinced him to join her cause after filling him in on the events he’d missed. X’s alleged death, as well as the copy of him running amok were more than enough motivation to take up the sword again– even if his memories were nearly nonexistent of his former partner.

Zero or “Crimson” acts as Cial’s personal body guard and weapon, striking where she needs him to, and defending her alongside the Guardians Leviathan and Fefnir.

Zero is often accompanied by two cyber elves, Val and Hawke, who typically do most of the talking for him.

Hooo boy! I made this much more complicated than I needed it to be, but it was still fun! I really like how his wings in particular came out. Seraph is ACTUALLY the Leader of the Reploid Resistance, not Ciel. There’s a whole thing for this, so I’ll just paste from bio instead of rewriting it again lol–

Seraph is built much the same way as the original X was, copied to a T, save for the fact that his core can’t quite hold up the same way, for there was no similar energy available. His wings are made of a type of anti-gravity hologram, giving him flight. He has the same copy-ability as the Hero before him, but it takes him time to switch weapons, excluding when shifting to his normal buster.

When he activates the Mythos Armor given to him, it changes his armor to gold and white, and gives him an upgrade in speed, strength, and processing power; he can shift elements in seconds, and his response time is much greater. The only drawback is that it cannot be active for much longer than thirty minutes before it starts to overexert his systems, and he’ll either overheat, or fall unconscious.

He originally had his Second Form, which had no legs and floating arms, but he discarded it after the first fight with Crimson, asking X to convert the ability towards more time for him to use his Mythos Armor.

MZ and Rock! This was a Valentines gift for my wife, as we got married this year! I’m aware I’m like, months late in posting this, but here it is! I really wanted to draw them, as they were the reason we met today, and who we are as people, and who we are together. I don’t normally post WIPs, but this was really important, so I felt the need to share anyways.

Raised under harsh expectations, a dangerously competitive sibling and an expansive library, Vesperling Williams is a bit of a prodigy, a fast learner and an even faster problem solver (of most things). His mother was a powerful Necromancer, and his father was a man of many magics, considered to be one of the most powerful magic users in the world. This eventually led to Vesper, who inherited both of their combined magics when he was born, enough that it caused his mother’s death upon birth. As powerful as that makes him, he cannot use all of his magic freely as his father can, resulting in magical recoil. Vesper, with all the magic in him, experiences magical recoil often; there are few spells he can complete without damaging himself purely because he cannot always control the amount of magic he puts forth. This doesn’t happen with alchemy and summoning/necromancy, as one is given to him naturally as an ability through his mother and the other involves the mixing of magical properties, not creating elements/things from nothing. Thankfully the amount of recoil he receives lessens after Volt is summoned because the Demon can balance it out, though there is still risk of injury with any ability Volt isn’t naturally gifted with. When he was eighteen, he summoned the Wrath Demon known as Volt (Voluntas), and had a very simple contract that puzzled the irritable Infernal: “I wish for a best friend.” Volt agreed, seeing that such a contract would be easy, and that he would gain a powerful soul in return, though warned the human exactly what would happen to him. Vesper wholeheartedly accepted. Most people at the time found it unnerving for the young man to be followed by ominous creatures like hellhounds or Infernal Dragons, but Vesper always assured them he was in no trouble! After all, Volt was his best friend! Now that he’s a few years older, Vesper currently is a Senior in Westborough College of Magi (WCOM), only a few months away from graduating. His true major follows his natural abilities, Summoning/Necromancy, and has a sub in Alchemy. (Necromancy is a subcategory of Summoning, as it is summoning a specific thing– souls– hense why Vesper can perform Summoning with relative ease.) In his downtime, Vesper loves cooking and baking. If you ask him why, he’ll say it’s similar to Alchemy, and easy to follow. In his late teen years, he started subbing magical ingredients to his food instead of the regular option, to see what would happen, of if he could make something completely new! (Think like food buffs in video games lol.) He’s a pretty cheerful guy with a steep level of patience, and rarely loses it. But like any person, he has his bad moments, and has to fight self deprecation built on a family competing for their father’s attention. It’s a rough time, but he’s got Voluntas to help him keep it together.

Here he is… Death.

Death is, as you can tell, the ‘Earth Prime’ version of MZ. As Kara pointed out with Dirge, we like to interconnect out universes, and he became the ‘plot reason’ her Rock and my MZ are fated to be together. TLDR; he is the God of Death, paired with the God of Life to keep the balance of souls in check. His abilities aren’t restricted to a single quadrant of the multiverse, but the multiverse as a whole, though there are some places that are harder to access more than just observatory than others. 

Most things cannot see him, much like other other-folk, but sometimes he can be glimpsed in crowds or distant places, watching and observing. His cloak is a form of his wings, of which there are eight pairs, and only are visible in times of great calamity and danger. Normally it moves and shifts as it is made of shadows, just like he sometimes is. He shifts in shadows and moves with them, though has no adverse reactions to being in the sunlight either.

Kara wrote a little about how he and Dirge first met, but the summary is that Fate (the Goddess of Fate, I’ll make her a shiny ref at some point) told him to don his Avatar’s skin and interact with one of the souls he was meant to reap– that soul was Dirge. Fate had it so that Dirge was Death’s first Guardian, who functions as a reaper to ferry souls from place to place, and be another set of eyes.

Death rarely speaks, and responds to things in a neutral manner. After all, souls are hardly worth talking to, all of them bargain to have a life that is already gone.

Here is one of my favorite designs ever!! I love everything about this dude lol–

Morozko is the ancient deity of Winter, one with many names; Winter, Jack Frost, Jeg Atya, Morana, Mor… the list goes on. (I commonly use the first due to its using of the M,Z, which was the name of the original OC that this was– originally an AU of– long story. XD)

As a deity, he is commonly seen as the less-human creature to the left, wandering the frozen forests and icy landscapes of the earth. There, in the cold, the bridge between life and death, he roams, spreading the dangerous beauty of Winter. In this form, he can only be seen by other-folk and fae, and certain humans who have the Sight. 

Humans that die in the forests, whether freezing to death or being murdered, leave malicious souls and malevolent negative energy. Mor seeks them out, and devours them. While he frequently chooses to leave those that wander in his frost alone, there are the rare individuals, like @super-tired-robot‘s Raziel that draw his attention, and sometimes he leads them out of his cold to prevent them from succumbing to the ice. There are others he purely spirits away, and turns into either ice-creatures or the gems upon his person– these too are rare circumstances.

Sometimes he, like other fae and other-folk, likes to wander the human world and interact with the mortals like one of their own. His disguise is far from perfect, as there are some things that are impossible to hide, though it is easy to say he is a foreigner, or of inhuman descent. His appearance changes typically to the times of the world around him. Still, there is… a sort of cold breeze that follows him regardless. Most would know better than to interact with him.

Mor can only travel during ‘Winter,’ as ‘Summer’ isn’t his season, and it is tiring to keep up his frost when the heat prevents him from creating it.
