Evolution of some nighttime scenes, 2023-2026. I really like the third one, I fear I went too bright in the most recent piece.

5, 6, 16, 19 for Hedwig!

5- Is there any significance behind their hair color? 

Yes! Hedwig's hair is inspired by Claudia's from the Interview with the Vampire book/movie. Hedwig is meant to look like someone who others would assume innocence of, hence the youthful blonde curls.

6- Is there any significance behind their eye color?

Only that I think brown eyes are very beautiful and wanted to draw them. They have the additional bonus of there being an ambiguity between certain shades of brown and red, so I can make her look a little more vampiric (red-eyed) at times while technically maintaining her natural brown eye color.

16- What is something about your OC  that can make you cry? 

Everything! Hedwig lost her home to a seige and her entire family were killed the same night she was transformed (against her will) into a vampire. Atop the crushing grief and lonliness, she now has to deal with her hunger and the associated guilt forever, which is a sickeningly long time 😭

19- What is your favorite fact about your OC?

My favorite fact is that her main backstory inspiration is that of Alistair from Twilight: Breaking Dawn, whose backstory was only ever disclosed in the Twilight Illustrated Guide 😂

Questions About Creating Your OCs

‘Cause sometimes the stories of how OCs come to be are just as interesting as the OCs, themselves. Tell me how your virtual kids came into the world.

What was the first element of your OC that you remember considering (name, appearance, backstory, etc.)? 

Did you design them with any other characters/OCs from their universe in mind? 

How did you choose their name? 

In developing their backstory, what elements of the world they live in played the most influential parts? 

Is there any significance behind their hair color? 

Is there any significance behind their eye color? 

Is there any significance behind their height? 

What (if anything) do you relate to within their character/story? 

Are they based off of you, in some way? 

If they have an LI, how much of their character is tailored to be compatible to that person? 

Did you know what the OC’s sexuality would be at the time of their creation? 

What have you found to be most difficult about creating art for your OC (any form of art: writing, drawing, edits, etc.)? 

How far past the canon events that take place in their world have you extended their story, if at all? 

If you had to narrow it down to 2 things that you MUST keep in mind while working with your OC, what would those things be? 

What is something about your OC can make you laugh? 

What is something about your OC can make you cry? 

Is there some element you regret adding to your OC or their story? 

What is the most recent thing you’ve discovered about your OC? 

What is your favorite fact about your OC?
