Gargoyle character studies I had on my Patreon for a while now, featuring Brooklyn, Broadway, Lexington, and Angela! :)
These were largely a bid in trying to capture the likeness of the characters while translating them into my style. As seen with Angela's sheet: what I did was take the official character model sheet and trace it to get a feel of their base character shapes, then did a second pass over the trace to add the features I wanted to incorporate into my headcanon design.
The final iteration (the big colored ones) is entirely freehanded and drawn using my passes as reference. I like how they all came out! :>
I'll eventually do the same with other characters (Elisa, Demona, Goliath, and Hudson are next on my list), then do fullbody redesigns to act as refs for any future drawings and headcanons I make for Gargoyles.
But ye! Hope ya'll like the art! more to come soon :)
Based on a true story
I think one important step in decolonizing fantasy is to recognize how wildly anti-environment Europeans became, and how this affects the way we look at the nonhuman world. Like, in England wolves were driven to extinction because they were perceived as threats to sheep. And white people absolutely carried this kind of mentality everywhere they colonized. We see it in people who think rattlesnakes should be killed on sight. And it comes out in fantasy when every kind of creature that's challenging to humans is degraded, unpersoned, and treated like something to kill or keep contained out in the deep wilds.
I HAVE FELT THIS FOR SO LONG!!! Like I was always like "It's kinda fucked up that monstrous creatures/people in fantasy fiction are only approached in terms of being conquered or killed, right? Or in terms of only how they serve humans and that's IT." and it's fucked!
Yep! That's literally the colonialist mentality at work. If you want to feel even more vindicated, I recommend checking out Robin Wall Kimmerer's books and/or watching her interviews and speeches on YouTube.
Normal carnivorous animals always being portrayed as relentless hunters even if it causes them more harm than good. Fantasy monsters that are supposedly a natural part of the world but don't seem to have any actual purpose within their environment for no reason (like at least make them an invasive species or an artificial creation or something? that could be neat!)
This definitely also falls in line with the portrayal of any group of fantasy people as a flat stereotype of "evil" or "good".
I have caught myself worrying that the fantasy creatures I've put in my own world aren't epic and dangerous enough, because I make them in a way that actually gives them an environmental niche, and their behaviors are just normal animal behaviors. So they may not feel as fantastical and monstrous. But more and more I think it's just not worth it to me to force them to be monsters just for the sake of fitting a trope into my writing. I like my big olm-like amphibious wyrms. They don't need to be ravenous hunters. They're just big fat wet noodles.

"I'm going to convince people something they like is bad, actually!
Step one: Insult them and what they like.
Step two: Say a bunch of things while assuming they have the necessary context to understand.
Step three: There is no step three, for I succeeded in two."

"Why didn't that work?"
I was convinced for a second that Pikmin Bloom had church themed Pikmin, realized that would be ridiculous, imagined a Pikmin on a cross and lost my mind laughing. So I had to draw it.
