Another Gem From My “replace All The Canon Gems With Ocs” Au; Petalite!

I ordered two themed thrifting boxes from @shiftythrifting and the first one came yesterday while I was out! This one is stuffed animal theme!

I got a surprisingly solid pikachu, a dragon webkins who is adorable, a cat mirror (not shown because it got hidden by the dragon), and an owl build a bear. Plus, a recipe card, some magic cards, a wrestling card, and some stickers! A great haul! I'm looking forward to the second one when it comes!

So! I love my characters. I love their designs! I wouldn't change their designs for the world. But, I got to thinking.

What if I designed my characters today? Like, if they were brand new characters, how would my growth in character design shift the way they look? That's what I did today. Designed some of my oldest characters as if I designed them today. Design notes under the cut!

Covah:

Made him look like an actual drow- not slapping a dark skin tone on him and calling him a drow.

Hair in a ponytail cause, let's be honest, his long ass hair would be easy to grab.

I wanted to keep the facial scar that he got when he first questioned Simone. That's such an integral part of his story. But, I edited it a but to look like the slap that it was. Otherwise? All scars Covah got from Simone are gone. Instead, he has small battle wounds dotted all over his body.

Actually, y’know, put a sword at his hip like he probably would have 24/7

Gave him his legs back. Take them. You fool. You poor child.

Gave him some tattoos! Covah always seemed like the type to have tattoos.

Espi:

Gave him more of a greaser vibe instead of the general adult 50s style. He is a young, Hispanic, working-class American who does not enjoy The Man. He is perfect for the greaser style. But, he wouldn't do all the motorcycle stuff that was common or listen to all that rock. He's a book nerd deep down.

Got rid of his glasses. Why does he have glasses? He is blind. He does not need glasses. Take them off. You fool. You utter moron.

Still tub. Let him be tub.

Simone:

I wanted to give her more of a warrior princess vibe.

She has. A nose. It's a miracle.

Made her dress more adpt for the time period she lived died in.

She has a under jaw, much like Alexandrite from Steven universe. She can lift her front face to reveal a larger, threatening jaw underneath.

Eyeball. She felt a lil bear without four eyes so I gave her one under her skirt.

Sinensis:

Total revamp! I wanted him super cartoony and fun.

Originally I was shooting for something inspired by Picasso, but ended up more muppety.

Orange.

I removed his kitty bits! They just feel very extra in his current design but they've been there forever.

He's still a ball of fluff tho. Best boi.

The Element swap au version of Celestia! I decided to redesign her and Luna for this au cause I could.

Many legends and myths are had about the pony who ruled Equestria alone for 1000 years. It was bound to happen, as many generation are had in that time. And no pony really got close to her in that time. 

No pony alive other than Luna and the Princess Consort (to be designed) know what the face and cutie mark of the reigning deity looks like. This is because many legends prevailed in ancient times that said that looking upon her golden visage would blind a pony. For, they could not stand to see anything more after seeing such beauty. And, well, she just got used to it after the years. It’s second habit now. As for the cutie mark, no pony knows why she hides it other than Luna and the Princess Consort.... It’s a sun, right? 

"M-My- Diamond. A-Apologies for my lateness in emerging and reporting to you. I would have reported sooner but-"

"Y-You're-!"

"Brimstone, Facet Y-1 Cut 9L, permafrost defect. I emerged without standard abilities. If you desire, I will shatter myself upon this nearby spire for being so off-color-"

"No-! Brimstone- A shuttle is on the way to retrieve you immediately! How did you emerge- How did you survive the collapse?!"

"I- erm- I was injected in the middle of a spot that did not collapse, my Diamond."

"Are- Are there any others?"

"I am sorry, my Diamond, I am the only one. I.... waited."

"I.... See. Thank you, Brimstone. You will not be punished for being off-color. I'll- I'll think of something for you. But I won't shatter you. You.... You're the last remnant of my first colony."

"Th- Thank you, my Diamond."

Once a velveteen seductress of Homeworld, Dry Bone Ore came to Earth on an entertainment assignment to lift the spirits of a certain Pink Diamond. The corruption blast came before she even got word Pink was gone. She has the shards of a former lover she kept with her attached to her “strippers pole”. 

New Hybrid High kids! Mostly minor

Basil (Chimera Hybrid - He/Him - Junior). This guy is introverted and quiet. He doesn’t really talk to others outside his best friend, Buck. He runs track, and met Buck there during try outs when Buck was a freshman. Buck was the only guy who didn’t stare for his weird anatomy- but rather for his great running skills! Basil got into anime because of Buck, and is looking into making his own cosplays. Basil has a.... very big crush on Buck. But he just can’t say anything! Buck obviously just thinks of him as a friend, and he wouldn’t want to ruin their friendship. (Buck hasn’t really thought of him that way before, but would 100% date Basil if Basil just said something first) His parents are both Hyrbids themselves, and the composition of species in his blood include cartoon, aasimar, centaur, and atlantean. 

Just Kidding (Oni/Myconid Hybrid - She/Her - Senior). Zipper’s older foster sister. Just Kidding has been in two other foster homes before being shoved into this one. Because of this, Just Kidding doesn’t see this as a permanent home. Even if she loves her other foster siblings to bits, she knows she’ll probably just be shoved to another home. Or, soon enough, the streets once she turns 18. She knows the system and how it works, even if this foster home touts that she will not be pushed to the street and has a home there so long as she needs one. Just Kidding refuses to get close to anyone except her foster siblings. Even then, she keeps them at an arms length. It’s only a matter of time. Just Kidding is really into tech and mechanics, and is usually tinkering with something or covered in oil.

some sketches to try to relax.
