Champagne Quartz, C4 (it's mason)
I already said this to you but I meant for these prompts to be just my own non fandom or gem ocs. If anyone else sends these as their own ocs I’m not gonna do em.
Don't worry about the guilt you feel. Just take a breath and seal the deal!
>POINTS< SON
Yall sent so fuckin many i just did em all together
It's @thepuppeteer-andthetrashmob 's birthday! (Well it was. Couldn't get myself to draw until stupid late.) I thought I'd doodle our discord icons celebrating their revolution around the sun! Arsene from Persona 5 is them and Lonely Pearl from Steven Universe is me lol. Happy birthday!!!!
Next in the element swap au; Rarity, the element of Laughter. And her future spouse, Starswirl the Storm Creature!
Rarity wanted ever so much to do something for the school play when she was a filly. The costumes she’d designed just weren’t..... right. And there was no way she’d get a staring role short of a filly suddenly falling deathly ill, and her taking the spot.
So, for inspiration, she borrowed books on performances from the local library. She found descriptions of many performances through the years.... And found her idea. She found the concept of special effects, and how to perform certain spells in order to make things pop out more.
The night of the play, she tested out her new spells. And it worked! The play was much more dazzling and eye catching, thanks to her magic!
This is how she got her cutie mark, representing her talent in “show stopping” magic. She is now a show mare, much like Trixie is in the show. But much more humble. She does many shows for children’s parties.
Starswirl came to Ponyville after the Storm King’s defeat, searching for what to do now that their boss was gone. They found a fascination with magic, pony books, knitting.... So many new hobbies were open to them now! (Their personality is like a mix of Fluttershy and Twilight. Nerdy and very quiet and, well, shy)
They did not, however, have a name when they first arrived. This was because the Storm King did not allow the Storm Creatures to name their young, as it would give them an identity beyond serving him. The mane six help them select a name to set in stone their freedom, and they pick Starswirl.
Starswirl is Rarity’s number one fan, and they always are in the crowds at her public shows. Starswirl is mute selectively and signs to communicate, but can still talk if absolutely necessary.
Some steven universe gem redesigns! These are just for fun and not in any way done to criticize the designs the show has. We have Pearl, Sapphire, and Peridot in that order.
Some tidbits about the designs:
Pearls do not “speak” normally, as they have no mouths. Rather, they produce prerecorded robotic speech from their gem.
Pearls always have their eyes closed, as to not see any secrets that could get out. Pearl herself finally opens her eyes as her last step to realizing she’s free
Pearl’s sword was her first actual possession, given to her by Rose. She always has it with her.
The crystal gem emblem changes from a star to a heart.
Sapphires float and never touch the ground
They do not talk with their eye mouths unless they are predicting a particularly nasty future they don’t like. Rather, they speak with a sort of telepathy.
Peridot’s face can be turned off. This makes her mute until she turns herself back on
Electricity keeps her gem afloat and keeps it from being grabbed by any assailants.
She will always have the floating fingers, with there being no equivalent to her limb enhancers.
This version of Peridot would have electricity generation instead of metal bending.
I’ll probably do more of these later (including the ones in my inbox) I just wanted to get these out there!
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.
I’m a day late but sai crashed last night just after I was done with the sketch and I did not feel like drawing it again at that moment.
Ace pride day was yesterday! And so I felt like drawing all my Asexual ocs. We got:
Simone - Aromantic Asexual
Sinensis - Panromantic Asexual
Charon - Demiromantic Asexual
Jo - Demiromantic Asexual (with a bonus pin of the demi girl flag! cause Jo is a demi girl)
I hope ya'all had a good ace pride day! (Oh I almost forgot! Jo uses they/them; Sinensis and Charon use he/him; and Simone uses she/her)
