Because I'm proud of them and I still miss being as in love with Undertale as I was, here's the Undertale chapter of the paper dolls as well! Featuring two Gasters because while I love my skeleton Dadster Gaster very much, @natcaptor's Ghast Gaster and his partner, Luci, are very dear to my heart.
In the process of my current paper doll project's Red vs. Blue chapter! It's been really fun to draw these characters because you as the artist just get free rein over the design. Featuring @natcaptor's OC, Agent Montana, and her AI, Omicron.

Sometimes one simply must draw a character design line-up of an AU that refuses to go anywhere.
IMAGE ID: The background is a dark grey sky with dark hills. In the foreground stand a line-up of four characters from Homestuck, facing the viewer. Furthest to the left is the Dolorosa, her hands folded before her. She looks stern and is wearing a sleeveless green dress with a gauzy green cape around her. The second from the left is the Signless. He is scowling at the viewer, arms hidden under his cloak, and wearing his red-accented outfit and dark shoes. Second from the right is Kanaya Maryam. She is looking up at the Dolorosa, smiling a little with her hands behind her back. She is wearing a capelet with a collar patterned after the luna moth, a dark green dress with four off-white underskirts, and heeled black boots. Furthest to the right is Karkat Vantas. He is rolling his eyes away from the other three and frowning. His arms are crossed under his cloak, which is pinned in place by a silver crab pin. He is wearing dark grey clothing underneath and black boots. End image ID.
Scribbled this and decided to color it after hearing about some Hiveswap Friendsim and Pesterquest events because Karako deserves to grow up well, I think!
Image ID: The background of the image is an autumn forest. In the foreground is Karako Pierot from Hiveswap. He’s a teenager here, barefoot and dressed in a green plaid vest, an ICP shirt featuring a hooded figure, and grey shorts patched with purple polka dot fabric. There are two pins on his lapels: a black and white Hatchetman pin and a pin of Mothman reading “Protect the Wildlife.” In his right ear, he has three gold stud earrings, with one of them in the shape of the planet Saturn and another in the shape of a ladybug. Over his shoulder is a grey bag with a can of Faygo in one of the pouches and three pins attached to it (his sign Caprira, the sign Virus, and a nonbinary flag pin in purple hues), and attached to his belt loops is a purple knife sheath with his name in gold thread. He is smiling, holding a hand out and looking at someone to the right of the image. End image ID.
I’ve been playing Wigglersim (a dangerous pastime when you’re as likely to fall in love with digital creatures as I am) and decided to draw a couple of my grubs! So here’s gamer Arkade, his matesprit Stytch the tailor, and Khazoo, my fantastic mad scientist who apparently had to be put down for the good of the universe, which convinces me she was going to destroy the world.
Image description: Three fantrolls from Homestuck, featuring both their stylized forms from the waist up and their full-body sprite versions. The first, Arkade Dweler, has their name written beside them. They are smiling a buck-toothed grin at the viewer and flashing a peace sign with the hand holding their phone. They are dressed in a green turtleneck with the sleeves rolled up and a green flannel tied around their waist. Emblazoned across their chest is the lime sign Canun.
The second, Stytch Mancer, has their name written beside them. They are smiling a close-mouthed smile at the viewer, with pins between their lips. Their face is painted white and grey, with grey shapes around their eyes in the shape of fish and white paint over their mouth that looks like stitches. They have fins instead of pointed ears and gills on their neck, and are dressed in pink and purple with translucent sleeves. There are fins on their arms.
The third, Khazoo Rhedey, also has her name written beside her. She is grinning, revealing braces over her sharp teeth, and has a half-shaved head. A third eye peeks out from beneath her hair. She is dressed in a long red coat, an orange scarf, and a black t-shirt bearing the red sign Canpio. She is holding a remote with a big red button, clearly about to press it.
The final three images are the previous three trolls in a Homestuck sprite form, all three looking much the same. Key differences include Arkade wearing a lime headband, Stytch instead wearing a black tunic with a purple and white striped collar and the violet sign Aquarist, and Khazoo’s scarf bearing the pattern of the lesbian flag. End image ID.
@strangeandinteresting‘s Eridan playlist “musical theatre for pathetic little fishboys” actually makes me insane. Putting “Loser, Geek, Whatever” on there? Mwah! Inspired. (Kinda makes a guy want to draw Eridan with a squip…)
Image ID: Eridan Ampora from Homestuck is pictured from the waist up. Tears are running down his face and he’s looking at the viewer in anguish. His hand is fisted in his scarf. At the place where his waist cuts off, violet light drips down with an outline to resemble liquid. The text around him reads “The problem has always been me” in purple and pink capital lettering, a quote from Be More Chill’s “Loser Geek Whatever.” End image ID.
Started reading Homestuck again, so have an AU @natcaptor, @strangeandinteresting, and I came up with, where Bro does play his copy of Sburb for his Game Bro review and winds up bringing Dave along as the game unfolds. Dave, of course, is the one in charge of the messaging with the other kids.
Image ID: The first image has lava and black rock as the background. In the foreground are Dave and Bro Strider from Homestuck, pictured from the knees up and walking toward the viewer. Dave has his hands in his pockets and is glancing up at Bro. Bro has a sword in his left hand and is holding his puppet by the legs with his right, having slung it over his back. Bro is rolling his eyes behind his glasses. Bro’s orange text reads “TT: For the last time, your rep is gonna be fine” and Dave’s red text reads “TG: bold words from a dude with a puppet over his shoulder.”
The second image is place in a grey hallway. In the background, Karkat Vantas and Sollux Captor argue in profile. Karkat’s hands are fists at his sides and Sollux has folded his arms. There is no dialogue for them. Further into the foreground, Dave Strider is facing his brother, looking panicked and waving his hands. Equius Zahhak looks on in confusion. In the foreground, Bro Strider has his arms up and is stepping back, looking alarmed. Behind him and holding onto his arm is Gamzee Makara, looking curious, and before him are Nepeta Leijon and Terezi Pyrope, both pictured with their backs to the viewer and looking up at Bro. Bro’s orange text reads “TT: Uh, Dave?” and Dave’s red text reads “TG: hey, hey, i know my bro’s cool and all, but he needs some space.” End image ID.
Gay people at brunch never dress like they’re going to the same event, featuring @natcaptor‘s Elarie Daecan.
Image ID: Six people sit at a round table between two windows, which face out into a forest. All the characters are from Homestuck. On the far left, Tavros Nitram leans against Gamzee Makara, who has his arms over Tavros’s shoulders. Both are smiling as they look over at Karkat Vantas, who sits beside them. Karkat is shouting and pointing a finger in Gamzee’s face. Dave Strider sits beside him, with an arm around Karkat’s shoulder, and is smiling at Elarie Daecan, who sits to the right of him. Elarie is speaking and holding out her phone. Leaning on Elarie’s shoulder is Sollux Captor, who is playing on his phone, his elbows up on the table. Across the bottom of the image is a banner in blue, with white writing that reads “Experts warn that this polycule could expand to cover all of Alternia” in all capital letters. End image ID.
What probably definitely just happened from All for One’s point of view in the latest chapter of “it’s plain enough to see, but some of us are living in the past” on Ao3.
Image ID: The background of the image is dark red. Sitting in the center of the image, pictured from the navel up, is Tomura Shigaraki from Boku no Hero Academia. He has his elbows on the table before him and is looking at the camera with a smile. He’s wearing a grey sweatshirt with a green pixel creature on the front. The text beneath him reads “Tomura Shigaraki” and the line after it reads “Safety Fan & Bureaucratic Wunderkind.” His dialogue, written underneath that, reads “Hi, I’m Tomura Shigaraki, safety fan and bureaucratic wunderkind,” in a parody of Brian David Gilbert’s OSHA skit. End image ID.
I had other things I wanted to draw, but then my brain said idly “hey, how many members of the LoV do you think are trans, actually?” and now I’m here. Five of them??? I headcanon five of these goofuses as trans??
I am aware that I’m looking at gender here through an intensely Western queer lens, and these are also my personal headcanons. I am not taking suggestions at this time.
THE LEAGUE OF VILLAINS SAYS TRANS RIGHTS!
Image ID: Five characters from My Hero Academia stand on a warm grey background. Furthest to the left is Kurogiri, their eyes crinkled in a smile and their arms behind their back. They’re wearing a green vest and black trousers, as well as a tie striped with the agender flag colors (black, grey, white, and pale green). Beside Kurogiri stands Himiko Toga, with her fists up in the air and a smile on her face. She is winking at the camera, and wearing her canon sweater. Her skirt is colored with the genderfluid flag colors (pink, white, magenta, and black). Magne stands in the center, holding a banner above their heads that says “Trans Rights” in all caps and in pink, blue, and white letters. Her right arm is a metal prosthetic and there is a transgender flag on the front of her t-shirt. To her left stands Dabi, looking back at her with a smile. His hands are in the pockets of his long coat, and the white shirt he usually wears is dyed in pale nonbinary flag colors (black, purple, white, and yellow). Furthest to the right is Atsuhiro Sako. His metal arm is tipping back the brim of his top hat, and he is smiling as he looks at his friends. He wears a white collared shirt and dark trousers, with suspenders in transgender flag colors. End image ID.
The first panel depicts a preteen Hitoshi Shinsou from My Hero Academia. He is dressed in a dark school uniform and looks wild-eyed. One hand is pressed to a whiteboard and the other is held up before him. The whiteboard features writing in red that says things like “Uncle Toshi?” and “Aunt Magne?” as well as displaying parts of a family tree. An arrow points to Hitoshi himself, with text: “Hitoshi, age 12, trying to wrangle his family tree project.”
The second panel is the same scene, but set behind Hitoshi. At this angle, Hizashi Yamada, Oboro Shirakumo, and Shouta Aizawa, in their late twenties, are visible. Hizashi is leaning forward, hands clasped together under his chin and a wobbly smile on his face. His eyes have been replaced by hearts. Beside him, Oboro smiles incredulously, one hand up to cover his mouth. One eye glows with yellow light and his hair is dark purple with blue at the roots. Shouta is the last of the trio, lifting a cat-patterned mug to his mouth and smiling at the whiteboard. All of them are dressed in civilian clothing. There are dark blue arrows pointing to each of them, with the text: “Hitoshi’s dads, trying not to laugh or coo.” End image ID.
Image ID: seven panels with white backgrounds. The line-art is drawn in dark red.
The first panel is a close up of All for One from My Hero Academia, as he was pictured in the past, with short hair and strong features. He is pictured from the chest up, expression concerned, and one hand on the shoulder of a child Tomura Shigaraki. All for One’s speech bubble says “We have other nomu, Tomura.”
The second panel is young Tomura Shigaraki as pictured from All for One’s point of view. He is looking at the camera in confusion. All for One says, “Does it have to be this one?”
The third panel is a shot from the waist up of Doctor Ujiko and Oboro Shirakumo. Oboro is dressed partially in his gi. The right side of his head is cracked open to display his brain and three vertical scars cross his right eye. He is sneezing violently into his elbow, and Doctor Ujiko is leaning away from him, both hands held up in surprise. The text here reads “Achoo!” in all capital letters.
The fourth panel is a shot at the same angle as the previous one. Doctor Ujiko has not moved, except his eyes are looking toward the camera now. Oboro’s sneeze has triggered a transformation into Kurogiri, as his head is now covered in mist, as are his hands. He looks pained. The text reads “sniff. sorry.”
The fifth panel has the same angle as the previous two. Doctor Ujiko is still in the same position, but he’s looking at Kurogiri now. Kurogiri has turned his head to look at his hand, his expression confused. The text reads “sniff. Whoa. What is with my han-” and the word ‘with’ is underlined.
The sixth panel features Kurogiri reeling back from his own hands, eyes wide and arms stuck straight out in front of him. Doctor Ujiko is pictured lunging to shut him up, his hands in front of Kurogiri’s face and behind their head. The background is full of capital As to symbolize Kurogiri screaming.
The seventh and final panel cuts back to All for One and Tomura. All for One is kneeling to Tomura’s level, and Tomura is pictured from the waist up, looking at the camera. Tomura is smiling and All for One looks disgusted. Beside All for One is the word “ugh” in all lowercase. Tomura says “Yeah. He’s good. I can tell.” The background is full of capital As still as Kurogiri continues to scream. End image ID.
