Time for two new gems for the "replace all canon gems with ocs" au that I've had sitting around for a while. Never had the inspiration to finish them until now!
Stabbingtonite (purple gem; designed by @pocket-gems ) is actually a Siberite. When she was newly emerged, she was presented before Yellow Diamond for inspection.... With Pink Diamond monitoring to learn how to run inspections on gems that warranted the Diamonds' attention.
Pink.... thought the name of this gem type unfitting. And suggested they call them something more fitting. Like Stabbingtonite; since their gemstones were shaped like knives.
Yellow did not find this idea amusing, but the name stuck on this Siberite once Pink was shattered. To honor the lost Diamond.
Antmony (blue snake gem) was assigned to Stabbingtonite as a sort of controller. An interpreter of the Diamond's more complicated orders, and making sure the orders were followed through properly.
The two are a much more competent Jessie and James from Pokemon. Flirtatious at each other, and dancing romantically as they monologue about their opponent's doom. They are very much in love, but have never fused, despite it being legal in this au. They've never seen the point.
These two are assigned to the doomed Earth planet to gather humans for the human zoo. During era three, they break up for a while to find themselves outside of their assigned realtionship. Wanting to figure out if their love was just a product of their assigned roles, or if it was real. They do love each other dearly, but want to use the new lens of era three to inspect the validity of their relationship outside of serving the Diamonds.
Antimony uses they/them pronouns and Stabbingtonite is fine with you calling them she/him/them, whatever.
I have no regrets depecting B*tch crystal's..... "weapon".
He only uses his spear like this; stabbing it in the ground and then using it as a stripper pole.
Thought it'd be fun to log what the weapons of each of my oc au gems (so far) are. I don't feel like drawing all of em and am only gonna draw one cause I think it's funny. I might update this as I add more gems to the au:
Ametrine: Ribbon
Angelite: Man Catcher
Antimony: Electric Whip
Asterism: Energy bow and arrow; however she usually uses the blaster she can make with her floating fingers like peridot could with her limb enhancers
B*tch Crystal: Spear - he does also have an unsummoned, physical dagger on a garter holster under his dress
Brimstone: UNABLE TO SUMMON WEAPON AND HAS NO PHYSICAL WEAPON
Chatoyancy: Cherry Bombs/Caltrops (interchangeable)
Copper: Chain-whip Sword
Coral: Ray Gun
Dolomite: Cane; this is able to shift into a lighting shooting destablizer at will. No one is sure if this is her summoned weapon or a nonsummoned, physical weapon.
Fairy Quartz: UNABLE TO SUMMON WEAPON AND HAS NO PHYSICAL WEAPON
Kunzite: Spiked Knuckles
Liddicoatite: Electric Guitar
Orphiment: Syringe
Petalite: Khopesh
Romanechite: Scythe
Sonora Sunrise: Chakram
Stabbingtonite: Broad Sword
Watermelon Tourmaline: Lance
Re-design of Druzy Quartz, the fusion of Orphiment and Kunzite. I like this much better than the last design so this is the new canon design.
so a concept that came to my head with one thought:
"Princess Peach is a Princess..... where's the king?"
So, I'll introduce the washed-up king I came up with, King Hawthorne Toadstool!
As a young King, he was a kind, benevolent leader who pushed the Toads to be better than they were, and had a wonderful, friendly alliance with the neighboring Koopa Kingdom. He was seen as a bit tough, but fair and good. The only problem was that he partied. Sometimes, a bit too much.
It was this partying that lead to Toadsworth being handed a baby Peach by a mysterious woman. No one knows who she was, or why she abandoned Peach to the castle. But, Hawthorne quickly took to being a father and started teaching the baby Peach everything he could as early as he could.
However, it wasn't much. As, when Peach was very young, the Toads of the kingdom hoisted King Hawthorne out of the throne and crowned Peach as their ruler. Their reasoning was that he was too hard on them (even if he was actually really supportive and just wanted them to be the best they could), while Peach didn't expect anything from them. There were a few Toads who weren't sure of this change, asking how well a child could rule them, but most Toads thought this a great idea.
Hawthorne, without his throne, became a bit.... melancholy. He is just an "odd, lonely, sad man" who drinks in the crevices' of the Mushroom Kingdom. He'll talk about how back in his day they didn't have a crisis every fuckin day, and they certainly didn't have an overworked plumber chasing after an overgrown fire-breathing turtle. Ah, well. He doesn't try to contest the crown at all, and simply tries to keep to himself and out of the hero's way.
Peach has not seen him since she was very young and would not recognize him. In fact, not really anyone would. Even his old friend Toadsworth. Most older Toads would have to have their memory jogged of him.
A concept my boyfriend and I tossed back and forth a while ago that I suddenly remembered and felt like drawing; The Rogue Toad -Also known as The Red Rogue! We came up with him after tossing back and forth ideas for party members for a stealth-based Mario game.
This Toad, after a youth of servitude to the Princess, finally snapped and had enough of the mistreatment. He fled the castle, abandoning his post and turning to a life of crime.
The Red Rogue hates Peach with a passion and actually runs a halfway house for Toads that want to escape her terrible management style. The footstool punishments, the payment only in hugs and kisses, having your life risked for a princess who doesn't know how to defend herself, getting underestimated just because of their species - Toads that wanted to get away from it could go there. Most of them go back, merely using the house as a place they can relax and be themselves.
The Red Rogue is now the head of a criminal empire, pulling strings only a Toad could because no one expects much from them. He can go undercover as a normal Toad, no one noticing his distinguishing big eyebrows or shroom scar. He's even gone back to the castle, and been face to face with the Princess. Just goes to show she doesn't really notice them much if she doesn't realize his features.
His scar is from when he got royal footstool duty during the princess's "that time of the month"..... Her monthly foot fungus. What? What did you think it was? She lives around mushrooms constantly, of course she gets monthly fungus. The spot got infected very badly and part of his shroom had to be cut out. Leaving the scar.
Some minor characters from my su oc au!
"Orphiment" original design by @pocket-gems
Kunzite originally adopted from this sheet by gums00se on deviantart
More about them under the cut!
Kunzite (purple- right gem), a very long time ago, at the beginning of the war for Earth. was given high rank and praise for doing something important related to the colony. After this, Kunzite became.... Full of herself and lazy. She would push tasks to her underlings while she got to laze about and do nothing. She said she was helping them! Maybe, if they tried hard enough, they could be almost as good as her!
Orphiment (yellow- left) is one of Kunzite's underlings. She is a plant researcher for homeworld who hates getting dirty, and hates her boss even more. She goes to great lengths to avoid organic grime and muck, and hates having to get down in the dirt for missions.
Kunzite, in the retreat, left an item of importance to homeworld on Earth (undecided what), and returns to get it thousands of years later. Or, rather, she sends Orphiment to get it while she relaxes in the safety of her ship.
Orphiment gives the crystal gems the runaround, and eventually leads them aboard the ship, ready to take the item home. Even if she kinda..... finds these Earth gems and odd earthling funny. If weird. She just wants to get back to clean homeworld.
Kunzite finally acquiesces and stands to face the crystal gems.... As a fusion. She orders her underling to fuse with her, so she doesn't have to put too much effort into the battle. Hey, look on the bright side, it's an honor to be able to fuse with one such as herself!
Druzy Quartz, their fusion, is boisterous and loud. Sorta a mix of Saradonyx and Sunstone personality-wise. She has two mouths. One talks in text shorthand/l33t speak while the other.... quietly corrects the grammatical errors. She has a large squeaky hammer as a weapon, combining Orphiment's syringe and Kunzite's spiked knuckles.
When defeated, Kunzite throws a temper tantrum. She should have won! She's always been told she's the best, so why did the crystal gems win! They must have cheated!
Orphiment finally stands up to Kunzite at her tantrum and tells her that if she had maybe helped, they would have won. And she's not actually so great. The rest of the ship crew pipes up in agreement. Kunzite is greatly offended and runs off to find a "better crew" who will "understand the benefits of the favors she gives them".
Orphiment gives the crystal gems the artifact back, and goes off into distant space with the rest of the crew. Off to see what wonders await out there without Kunzite breathing down their neck.
oh gosh she looks lovely!! I love her!
I read the fanfic "Pearl's Pearl" by yaboyrobin on AO3 and saw the link to a drawing of the new Pearl in question, and I wanted to draw her. I'm mostly just posting this for an easy way to show the author.
It's not that great bc it was drawn on Chrome canvas, as that's what's accessible to me rn, but I hope you like it!
Hi! I'm new here after seeing your thing for White Diamond Steven. I already love all your art and was curious about what gems make up Dolomite
I'd say but it's a secret! ;3c
Dolomite formed very early in gem history, fusing before several of the earliest gem types had a concrete purpose. She excitedly showed White their new form. The way the two gems combined naturally hid their two gemstones, and thus White could not see who these gems were. She would have known if she could see. This is one of the main reasons why White kept Dolomite around. A secret not even the Great White Diamond knew. It was best to keep that close. That, and if she decided to do away with this fusion, it could be close to do so with.
Dolomite's components is meant to be one of the great mysteries of the "replace all canon gems with ocs" au (racgwocs au). Like with Fluorite's components, the audience, and characters within the show, are never meant to know.
That being said, she does have two canon components! She is made of two gems who are deeply in love and are never apart, like Garnet. <3
Today's stupid question is, what happened to Tutu Pearl?
well my adhd said "hey here's another thing to focus on now. have fun."
the next "chapter" would have involved her being "babysat" by bismuth.
"Hey, Coral, what about this guy? Who is this supposed to be?"
>gasp< "Oh! They even included the right hands! Well, most of them. I don't think B*tch Crystal was around at the time. But still- The detail-!"
"The.... right hands? The Diamonds have more than one?"
"No, Steven. These are the Diamond's innermost confidants! The elite of the elite! They work beside their diamond always, and are all one-of-a-kind gems like the Diamonds!"
"So- They're like- Their best friends?"
"No, Steven, the Diamonds don't have time for friendship."
Dolomite - The mysterious and powerful
Brimstone - The permafrost paragon
B*tch Crystal - The fabulous king
Petalite - The forgotten hermit
For fun "murals" of the diamond's right hands that have them in the poses of their diamond's murals.
thank you so much for drawing her again!!! she came out so wonderful!! 💖💖💖
Reference sheet commission for @yaboy-robin !
She was great to work with! I never thought reference sheets could be fun
It's my birthday again! I turned 24! I'm going to the zoo today :^)
Two sketches I didn't feel like lining/coloring that I did while thinking about very minor characters I never talk about,
Helvetica having a "who broke it" moment. (His mug says: "Drink Coffee: Do Stupid Things Faster with More Energy".)
Tutorial smokes. Both tobacco and weed, though mostly tobacco. His tail wags automatically when he's very high. The broken heart cloud is cause I'm thinking Tutorial was betrayed and abandoned before he was given his role in the Land of Legends, which has worsened his descent into not trusting others and refusing to get close to anyone.
Through the mist, through the woods,
Through the darkness and the shadows-
It's a nightmare, but it's one exciting ride!
Say a prayer, then we're there-
At the drawbridge of a castle.
And there's something truly terrible inside!
It's a beast, he's got fangs, razor sharp ones-
Massive paws, killer claws for the feast!
Hear him roar, see him foam!
But we're not coming home
'Til he's dead!
Good and dead!
Kill the beast!
-
Hearts ablaze, banners high!
We go marching into battle!
Unafraid, although the danger's just increased!
Raise the flag, sing the song!
Here we come, we're 50 strong!
And 50 Frenchmen can't be wrong!
Let's kill the Beast!
Kill the beast, kill the beast!
Gee, you should really look where you're going, Sinny! (^:
B*tch Crystal hummed pleasantly as he spun delicately into Angelite's grasp. "Now, isn't this nice, Angelite?" He grinned down to the Pearl sized gem. "Just us. No Diamonds. No fusion. Just us."
"Yes." Angelite's eye twitched gently, her gem glowing with invitation. If he would just let go and let her in then she could- She could- "It's nice." Why wasn't he letting her in? He fused with others recreationally sometimes- why not her? If he did, then she could lure him in more and more until they could ask for it to be forever. Letting her get close to Blue again.
B*tch Crystal grinned almost knowingly as he hummed to a song that wasn't there. Angelite tried so hard, it was almost cute. Almost.
Maybe, for the moment, B*tch Crystal could pretend Angelite didn't hate him. That he was a good second hand, that gems didn't tolerate him only due to his status, that Blue called him her's instead of her's. Then maybe he could let go enough to entertain Angelite's silly trying to woo him. Pretend someone actually cared enough to be with him for him and not for his status.
But pretending only got you so far, didn't it? B*tch Crystal pulled away from Angelite with a hum. "I must leave for an appointment now." He adjusted the top of his dress, dusting out the wrinkles. "I will see you when our diamond returns to the zoo."
Angelite scowled the briefest moment, before schooling her expression and unlighting her gem. Folding her arms with a salute. and folding herself into a slight bow, she spoke with false reverence, "I will see you then, my crystal."
A very quick test comic for Hybrid High! This would be in the second "chapter" (if you count the prologue as a chapter), when Percy would first meet Cyraeni!
Some Sinensis drawings! I've been thinking about my cartoon son lately.
Him Think
Sinensis is actually a highly popular comedian in his universe. He has plenty of stand up specials and shows around the world. His preferred style of comedy is day-to-day slapstick, but he does do stand up! Unfortunately, I am not actually funny. So I couldn't tell you what joke he's telling here.
Meet Mystic Chaos Emerald Diamond Quartz (not a part of my oc au I don't think but. hoo boy I love them. I based them off of a dnd oc I'm never gonna use and actually haven't designed yet).
A long time ago, Pink Diamond was the youngest Diamond, trying desperately to show the others she was ready for a colony. She took a desperate, inadvisable step.
She created Mystic "Chaos Emerald" Diamond "Quartz" (the names in quotations added by Mystic themselves later, a desperate bid to show that she was no longer the youngest Diamond and thus deserved a colony. And, to show she was powerful and responsible enough to handle one as well.
None of this went according to plan. Pink got into massive trouble for crafting a new diamond without permission (something that it was thought only White could do until then). And, there was now a new diamond that none of the others were ready for or sure what to do with.
It didn't help that Mystic was.... not very willing to follow the rules. They are, as the name they chose implies, very chaotic. They are very whim-based, and don't really do things they should. Rather, they enjoy having fun and seeing the results of the chaos they caused to happen.
The only reason that the diamonds did not punish this diamond as they did Pink is well.... Mystic is powerful. They have a future vision beyond that of a Sapphire, and their aura seemed to be a mix of Blue Diamond's sadness aura and a new anxiety/fear-inducing aura that stopped even the most powerful gems in their tracks.
So, the diamonds generally leave Mystic to their own devices. Even Pink doesn't visit them for the reminder they pose of her poor attempt to get a colony. So, Mystic plays on their own, occasionally visiting court gatherings of the other diamonds for fun and to annoy the other diamonds. Mystic doesn't really have their own court, having not really thought of making her own gems yet. So, no one's sure what type of gems they can make.
Mystic is a head taller than Pink Diamond, and uses they/them pronouns majorly but is fine if a gem slips up and uses she/her pronouns.
The Serpentine shook ever so slightly as she raised her hand to knock on the frame of the doorway of Petalite's quarters. The door was open, so she could probably intrude on the hermit gem without getting in trouble. An open door meant welcome visitors.... Or a forgotten-to-close situation.
Serpentine knocked gently on the doorway, straightening her posture so that she looked more appealing. Hopefully, Petalite would understand. She wasn't really known for being understanding but.... Serpentine had a job to do.
Petalite was hunched over her work desk, thousands of notes scattered on holo screens on the wall in front of her. Her hand buried deep in her hair, gripping it tightly. A few tears dripping down her cheeks. She barely looked over her shoulder at the knock, face mask darkening with a bitter, tired tone. "Don't you know better than to disturb me while I'm working?"
"A-Apologies, my Petalite," Serpentine saluted, sweating, "But I come to retrieve you for Blue Diamond. Her grace requests your presence."
Petalite scoffed, turning back to her desk and idly adjusting a few things that glinted in the light. Serpentine's eyes dilated when she saw they were bright pink gem shards. Were those....? "Tell her grace I'm busy. Maybe another cycle."
Serpentine sweated more and swallowed roughly. "I was told to retrieve you no matter how busy you were, my Petalite. Blue Diamond wishes to-"
"Fuck Blue Diamond's wishes!" Petalite slammed her hands on her desk roughly, rattling the shards on her desk. One fell to the ground, where a pile of shards and hastily fused together multi color shards sat at Petalite's feet. Serpentine swallowed again. "I'm trying to get our precious Pink back, and all she can talk about is how she's gone! She's not GONE-! I just haven't FIXED her yet! If she was GONE- then I- I'd have-" More tears dripped from under Petalite's face mask. The screens on the wall all blinked red suddenly, flashing one word:
FAILED. FAILED. FAILED.
Petalite angrily shoved the shards on her desk to the side, the shards hitting her wall and breaking more against it. Falling to the messy floor. She turned angrily to the Serpentine, more and more color draining from Petalite's form (if that was even possible with how bleached she was). Petalite slammed her hand on a button before Serpentine could run, activating a destabilizing field in the door way and poofing the poor messenger.
Petalite's shoulders slumped tiredly and she deactivated the field, walking over to the gem on the floor and bubbling it. She pushed the bubble outside of her doorway, and closed the door. If Blue sent another messenger, the message would be clear:
Do not disturb.
A quick edited side by side of the three main right hands of the Diamonds. Good height comparison references for the three! Brimstone is ever so slightly shorter than Pearl, coming to her nose, and B*tch Crystal would have Pearl come to the notch in his gem horn.
Imagine my confusion when me, a very tired bi Robin, checked twitter this evening.
hhhhh super cutie!!!
if requests are open; maybe draw either my fairy quartz or my copper? whichever you like better. and if you want to of course!
We both know who would be the one
quiet sorta chibi doodles of all the uncorrupted gems from my oc au so far.
Liddicoatite - the Rock Star
Copper - the Abandoned.
Fairy Quartz - the Captian of the Future
IIIIIII AMMMMM- Making believe I'm sailing on the sea!
IIIIIII AMMMMM- Making believe I'm captain of the Pea!
I'm sailing across the water and I'll dock right on the shore!
A new uncorrupted baby for my oc au. This little lady is what the uncorrupted form of the lovely Fairy Quartz looks like.
She was born labeled to be shattered due to her massive gemstone keeping her from really picking herself up off the ground or moving anywhere. Yeah, see that massive boulder she's perched atop? That's her gem.
However, a Crystal Gem spy managed to sneak her gem off the chopping block and to freedom.
Fairy Quartz wanted to join the fight for freedom but didn't have much to offer with her condition. Rose Quartz promised she'd hide Fairy away, somewhere safe, and come back for her once the war was over. Of course, Rose'd visit- not wanting to leave the little gem alone, but Fairy'd stay put until the war was over. Not that she had much of a choice, she couldn't move on her own.
Fairy Quartz spent the war hidden away in the desert, where there were no plans for building yet. She still felt lonely and angry at being seen as so weak. But, there wasn't much she could do about it-
Until the corrupting light hit.
She became a massive beast, definitely able to move this massive boulder of a gemstone now. Her corrupted form took her anger of being seen as weaker on the desert she saw and on anything that happened to pass by the beast. She was uncorrupted with the other gems and given a solid cane to help row herself along the ground. Now, she could be with other gems and finally start to figure out what she wanted for herself. And, she could even defend herself with the massive swordtail she had leftover as a corruption scar. She eventually dreams of becoming a captain of her own ship!
