FINALLY FINISHED CHAPTER 10 OF MY FIC WOOOO 🎉🎉✨️
Dark Pit but he reforms the mirror shards as flight feathers and uses them to make his wings look cooler >:)
The idea that Viridi takes him in because he has a nature themed name and calls him by his full name to scold him is hilarious, and I love the sketches xD
Thanks for the response! Love reading your ideas ^^
The project I'm working on for your AU might take a few days or so to complete so here's a random thought/question in the mean time :) ~
I saw that one post where you said if Pit's name were nature themed it'd be Petunia, cause it sounds like Pittoo-nia (lol). I thought it'd be extra funny if that were his first name and Pit is a nickname. How would he feel if his first name were Petunia? (I personally think it's cute, but if I were a character I wouldn't say that to his face :P)
honestly i don't know why i doubled back on that because Petunia is probably the most brilliant thing i've ever conceived of. i think it was because it would make naming canon Pit in this au kinda weird. like. Wilted Petunia is a little too on the nose?? and wordy. but if Pit is a nickname... hehehe...
but no imagine if the only reason Viridi ended up taking him in was because he had a nature themed name. simply for the aesthetic. like:
honestly i feel like 'pit' would be the mean-spirited nickname some of the other angels gave him back when he was a little guy living on Skyworld (since he couldn't fly and all) but then he ended up appropriating it for himself to 1. stick it to Skyworld's face and 2. because it sounds way less cutesy than Petunia. but ultimately, i don't think he cares much one way or the other. names aren't really a big deal to him. especially since he spent a good portion of his life so far wandering around alone in the wilderness. but viridi definitely uses his full name when she's trying to scold him lol
i think i was trying to write a one shot about how Pit and Viridi met at some point but i never finished it (as most of my one shots are wont to do)
No problem!! :D
Glad you’re excited and enjoyed seeing my comment ^^ (Equally, I also started grinning a lot from seeing your response and got a rush of adrenaline. Which is great because I have been tired all day lol)
I have converted that energy into a sketch of Wilted Pit ~
Kid Icarus hyperfixation has returned to me FULL force so I went on a quest for content and found farvaduvet’s really pretty style and cool roleswap au :)
I hecking love the designs SO much omgoshhhhh
So I decided to try and draw Dark Pit (Pit in this AU)
@farvaduvet HELLO I WOULD LIKE TO ABSORB YOUR ENTIRE STYLE AND ABILITY TO DRAW DYNAMIC POSES AND DESIGNS A LOT
Anyways,, this is a very messy WIP for something even cooler if my hands allow me to draw more for it and my editing program works properly for what I have in mind :P
I wanna continue drawing but my tablet pen dropped off the face of the earth a few hours ago rip
Here's the first concept sketch I made for another Kid Icarus AU :)
Idea: After the events of KIU, Pit starts to make some changes to his schedule and picks up a hobby, as per Dark Pit's suggestion. He becomes an inventor/craftsman with the help of Dyntos and makes himself and Pittoo a pair of functional wing enhancers made with pegasus feathers. The devices allow them both to fly on their own. Here Pit is watching Pittoo take off with his set of wing enhancers for the first time ^^
This AU is called Surface Pressure and Pegasus Feathers! (also the name of a fanfic I'm working on for it :)
The first part of the title is because it's fun to imagine the song "Surface Pressure" from Encanto as Pit venting to Dark Pit lol. I scripted an animatic, but decided showing how the lyrics relate though a fanfic would allow me to show this concept sooner lol)
More fun ideas in the fanfic:
-Pit and Dark Pit get pegasus friends and name them ^^
-The bois learn how to read & write
-Dark Pit is determined for Pit to find his own way to deal with his issues (and is also really good at persuasion)
-The fic is essentially about what it takes for Pit to fully learn "philautia" (regard for one's own happiness/self-love.) He has a lot of agape (Selfless/unconditional love), but it needs to be balanced :)
Designs:
Pit's concept sketches & notes (the back of the wing enhancers:
Link to the first chapter if you want a sneak peak while I figure out how the HECK to use AO3 lol:
Meme moment in the fic:
CW: Blood (not really graphic though lol)
Dark Pit's wing is injured from a fight, and he keeps to himself because of how badly it stings. Arlon sees how serious that wound is however and makes sure the young angel understands that he can't leave injuries untreated. Then Dark Pit lets him treat it, putting aside his pride ^^
I just want more Arlon & Dark Pit interactions lol :)
Here is the rest of this mini comic for my AU~
Pitpaw and Darkpaw are apprentices! (And 8 moons old, so somewhat close to the size of full grown cats, but still slightly smol. I will probably make full color references that better show their designs sometime :)
Now that Pitpaw is older and has shown to be a very promising and strong apprentice, he goes on a mission to finally confront Star Pantherblaze about kitnapping Darkkit. Palelight can also guide him telepathically when he needs the help, as they share a powerful connection that allows Palelight to see his path through his eyes.
He is very worried for Darkkit, as he stopped talking telepathically after month of being in CalamityClan. Pitpaw and Star Palelight talk about what may have happened to him, fearing the worst and hoping for the best.
He unexpectedly finds both Pantherblaze AND Darkpaw, and is shocked to see that he's allegedly chosen to serve CalamityClan / the Darkworld clans (this is a Dark Forest / Underworld word mix here). Palelight tells Pitpaw to be prepared to fight him.
Seeing that he has to fight his brother and tired of Star Pantherblaze's constant bossing him around, Darkpaw snaps and attacks her, knocking her off the tree and shoving her into the tall rock Pitpaw is standing on, which takes one of her lives (and possibly all of them.)
I did not want to draw a fight scene lol
Also Darkpaw sees what looks like a collar and immediately dubs his brother "Kittypit" lol. There are no kittypets on their island, but they know what they are :P (Darkpaw also doesn't have anything against them, but just really hates the idea of a collar.)
The twins run as fast they can out of CalamityClan and Pitpaw asks if Darkpaw will come back to LightClan with him, still hoping that he might, but also knowing that Darkpaw has probably made up his mind. And he has, no convincing can be done.
I like to imagine him saying he's "no clan's warrior" is this version of "servant to no other than himself". He's still a warrior that will live in a clan, but also not sworn to one in particular.
Which means that even though he's going to live in NatureClan, he's gonna be a future "Warrior of Nature", not a "NatureClan warrior". Star Vineblossom (Viridi) will just have to put up with this now xD
Extra facts:
-Due to the stress of having to put on a reluctant facade for his survival, Darkpaw's fur is not in the best condition. This is why his tail isn't very fluffy anymore :( (It will be better once he moves into NatureClan. It won't be as fluffy as Pitpaw's tail, but it'll be healthier ^^)
-Star Vineblossom will be Darkpaw's new mentor! Always take in the sassy lost child lol
Small update: College is trying to steal my soul again, I have so much to do 🙃
I'm working on my fic during my freetime but it's probably gonna be a while again x)
I'll try to find something with au content if I post another update :)
Experimental scribbles with shading, lighting, textured brushes + sparkles, and excessive use of the smear tool :P
(I do this when I feel like drawing, but my hand won't cooperate and let me draw what I want to draw. I just apply my art skill to scribbles and maybe make it into something like this until the scribbling is less noticeable lol)
Another example below with a different color scheme :)
Star Vineblossom (Viridi) design :)
Working on Darkpaw in NatureClan drawings and wanted to show this in case the drawings take longer than expected lol.
She is smol and annoyed
Hello! Welcome to my art blog! :) I like animation, drawing, writing, and generally creating things. Animation is my passion and my major, and something I hope to get a lot better at! Current hyperfixations: Kid Icarus Uprising, MLP, Warrior Cats, WOF, MHA, FOP: A New Wish, and Gravity Falls :) Probably will keep reblogs mostly to responses for now, but that may change in the future lol Have a good day! ^^
