Just Got Another Idea. What If I Morph That Onto The OC I Wanted To Draw Originally?

Currently WIP for a drawing competition I want to participate. The theme of the competition is 'villain'. I still need to figure out the background in more detail and then I can start the actual drawing (and yes, I still consider this as a sketch. Just a pretty detailed one.🤣)

I have also never been drawing this long on a single drawing (an entire week). Normally, I finish a drawing in a couple of hours or in half a day. Still got a week left to finish that thing😁.

Currently trying to figure out all of my characters of my story. And geez, I have too many XD (12 is many ...)

Tried that already before but now I'm trying to figure out thier faces first and after that what they're wearing.

Had a couple good sketches and thought this might be a good oportunity to ramble a bit about them.

So, first off, we have the main villain. (I originally called him Shadow but I am now thinking about a different name. Currently, I wrote down Lord Astaroth Ophidian but not sure if that stays) His color scheme is going to be red and black and what I love most about him is his hair. It goes over in black mist.

I actually haven't thought in detail over his powers but he can move through shadows. Due to his hair emitting shadows, he's able to teleport through different universes. Maybe I might include something like illusions but I need to make sure they're not too similar to another ability from my cast.

I'm not entirely sure about his motives yet, but he wants to overthrow the guardians and wants world domination (I guess for now, but this might also change, as I am trying to figure out the entire story again.)

(And he's currently smiling but he wouldn't hesitate to break your neck.)

(Fun Fact: I gave him the nickname Disney Princess because of his floaty hair XD Just imagine someone walking up to someone killing and manipulating others and saying, "ey, what's up, princess?" I could already imagine a specific character doing that ... and ending up dead XD)

(And another fun fact: I was thinking about to call the villains the 'high-five' that would be so funny XD)

And here we have my sweetie, Senti. She's the second guardian, the guardian of feelings.

Her concept is really interesting. As guardian of feelings, she's able to recognise others' emotions and even manipulate them. But due to being a child, she's not able to control her abilities properly. That means she is mostly affected by the emotions of the people she looks at and feels the same.

That also means that when someone shouts at her and is mad, she mirrors the emotion and even amplifies the one it came from to be even madder (I hope you write it like that XD)

Another cute part of the design, what you cannot see in the sketch is, that her eyes are originally greyish silver but change colour depending on the emotion she's feeling (either own or perceived)

Now on Ao3

I decided to also post my story on Ao3, so if you're interested, feel free to step by 😊

(PS: I have also almost finished the first part of chapter two ... )

Been doodling. That's my OC Percy. He's a cute one ... also a poor soul. I made him being hunted by a ghost.

Finished it. I'm kind of not satisfied with the result. (Don't get me wrong, I still think this looks good) I need to keep drawing with markers to learn to use them better.

I found some more 😀

Can anyone tell me how to draw lightning and tunder?

I'm struggling to draw energy lightning circling around a specific spot.

How does lightning work? It's just rigid lines but it's also not.

Edit:

figured out how to do it digitally. But how the hell are you supposed to do that with traditional mediums like acrylics or markers?

And yes, I made a short sketch to figure this out. But digitally it's quite easy. Just draw some white squiggly lines along a shape, erase some parts, repeat that process until you're satisfied and then add colored glow beneath.

Honestly, it's been a while since I have drawn a sans after all that working on my AU. It feels great seeing how much you improve as an artist over time and how your style adapts to your current interests. This picture is like a "take all that you've learned so far and use it" and it turned out great 😀 (just got to admit that I got a little lazy with the background 😅)

Anyways, I had fun drawing that and I hope you like it 😁(I am also trying from now on to cross-post here and on my devianart, let's see how this will turn out)

Ink sans by @comyet

Okay, I think I'm getting somewhere. Maybe I might make a design similar to Blake but make him distinct anyways.

I was thinking, okay, I'll stick to the idea with the cards because it's cool. Where can I find inspiration for characters using cards?

Yu-Gi-Oh. Most of them wear floaty jackets. So I'll give mine a floaty jacket as well and I already like the high collar.

Just to prove that this hand looks like the one from the scene:

And yeah, I have no idea why I drew this. And ignore the arm from the hand.
