Post Story Covah - Blog Posts

toot toot.

Covah was originally created, in a very edgy way that would be practically unrecognizable to anyone looking at it today, in late July! So, here’s something for the kinda birthday boy! Reference taken from this video 

I decided to update the refs for some of my oldest characters since the art on their refs was hella old

COVAH’S FULL REDESIGN! I decided to give him his legs back, and remove a few scars. No more brand or shoulder scar. But he keeps the bullet wound and earns a nose and arm scar! He has tats now too. Cause he always seemed like a tat guy. And his eyes are now effected by the curse.

VERSUS COVAH: Judgement

[Defender of What’s Right]

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.

(Sinensis is okay, don't worry!)

I felt like doodlin my three ocs that can fit into the ok ko universe in the ok ko style (at least somewhat accurate to the style? I'm just a pleb help). Covah originally looked VERY CURSED but I parted his eyes a bit and it looked better. I know Espi looks diff than his fake screenshots I did but shh he's cute. Added a lil pride pin to his vest because he's the gayest. Also darkened his vest cause the colors of the color and the vest were too close. And then Nova is there being a smiley nerd. I love them.

Wanted to draw Covah pretty too. Outfit drawn from here

I liked the little gremlin me I drew earlier so I drew myself again with a Covah in that style. I was gonna do more than Covah but I got lazy.

IT'S PRIDE MONTH, MOTHER FUCKERS!!

Let Me Make You Proud

Sure, I've made lots of mistakes. I know that I've disappointed you. Still, though, whatever it takes! I'm gonna fix it, just watch me! Just you wait, I'll make it up to you. If it's the last thing I ever do! I will make you proud! I will make you have faith in me! I will prove that the way I used to be is all in the past. I will save the day! And come back here triumphantly! Cause I long for that look of surprise, When you see your son rising at last. The pride in your eyes, When you see your son rising at last.
