It's more likely than you think. Bite- 32/he/him🏳️⚧️. currently into: TMA, Malevolent, Dungeon Meshi Always into: Warhammer (Age of Sigmar, specifically. Skaven/Slaanesh player), DND, horror, that gay shit.
If you ever really wanna have a fun exercise: try photobashing one of your OC's. It doesn't even have to turn out good. Just have fun looking for bits of your OC in random portraits.
I need to sit and draw more of that fucking microwave.
I moved a couple months ago and also had a MASSIVE job change. Unfortunately my work is pretty physically demanding and I'm on my feet for all of it so by the time I get home I'm too tired to really sit and draw. Then my days off are dedicated to the Laundromat and cleaning so being able to get any art time in has been a nightmare.
But I really do need to sit and draw that dumbass microwave.
To a frequently asked question regarding this tall drink of loser. Buster was my PC for a ttrpg that I was play testing for my friend @awarhammerguy. The game is all about fighting cyborgs, aliens, and freakish fiends in a small town in the 1980's. Select people from the town have been imbued with Psionic powers at the whim of a dark force from beyond space and time. Why? Because he thinks it's hilarious to watch them fight and will pay them for winning against whatever comes their way.
Buster is a mall security guard who is the town loser. And he is in way over his head. A
Buster Outlaw. Mall Security. Former minor league baseball player that almost made it to the major leagues had a few really dumb events not happened during his first spring training with the Yourami Beach Bullsharks.
(Feat- Chauncy. The psionic bijon frise who knows far too many poems written by soldiers during WW1 and WW2.)
Forgot I had this one on some hidden layers. Imagine going from being an appliance with a whole cavity for a torso to having a juicy set of man titties. I'd slap them shits around like volleyballs.
If you've followed me for long enough, you know I have personal beef with some of DQXI's costumes, specifically Jade's.
While the redesigns I've done for Jade focus specifically on making them less fanservice-y, this one for Hendrik is about making it just... less ugly.
Redesign notes under the cut!
"Field Marshal's Finery" has peeved me off for the LONGEST time. It does Hendrik no favors, cuts him in half at weird places, and makes him look like a cross between a marching band kid and the spokesperson for Spirit Halloween.
(Perhaps making him this terrible outfit was Jasper's final "fuck you" to Hendrik...)
First, inspiration/references. Since Heliodor is based roughly on European monarchies with a fantasy twist, I looked at pictures of English military formal wear, and found that the original costume was likely based in part on ~ 18th century Navy uniforms. Which.... are ugly as hell.
Since I didn't want to straight up make him a redcoat, I changed the hue of the sash and other accents, trying to keep a more cohesive color palette. The purple was not doing anything for me, so I sequestered it to the pins on Hendrik's chest.
The original jacket also cut him at a very weird, sharp angle at both the waist and knees, so I extended the outer layer and made it asymmetrical to provide a bit more flow to the outfit.
The small gold buttons are definitely a bit more modern than those weird mariachi things on his lapels in the original, but they match the decals on his belt (taken from his regular non-costumed model).
As for the inner layer, I substituted whatever vest+jabot mess he had going on with a simple high-necked red tunic so it doesn't look like he's drowning in his outfit.
Boots were next, getting rid of that pinkish color that appears nowhere else on the costume in favor of sleek black leather. I also colored the gloves and soles to match the leather of the belt, since the swaths of white were a bit distracting.
Finally, I added a normal cape to match, and updated his face/head to match the Heliodor Knight texture mod I have installed for Hendrik.
Overall, I know that military formal dress uniforms can be kind of goofy looking, but I just wanted to design one that fit my tastes a little better and had a bit more visual coherence. At least for this one I don't need to make my "gamers don't be mad its just for fun im not Wokeifying your goonbait" disclaimer LOL
