I post some art/webweaves, but normally stick to writing on ao3!
This was inspired by the thumbnail art for Neverland by Deco*27!!! Inspo under the cut along w/ design choices and more images of the thing!!
Neverland by Deco*27 :D it's sooo good you should listen to it...
BUT OK. So I don't actually have too much for this one, but uh. A few things; Stormz' main colours are kinda supposed to be red and blue cause. idk vibes? they fit? yeah. I can't really like- describe it but. Yeah. Also he's supposed to be kinda like a falling angel. Not fallen fully, not yet, but not 'pure' as an angel should be.
Also, this is kinda like a mix between Bliss!Stormz and Mace!Stormz. When paired with the Dumb drawing (that I shall post later) it's supposed to be Mace, but when it's on it's own, taken as a standalone, it's Bliss? Kinda? That's what I'm going for at least lol.
> Artist only draws skinny people
>> No one says anything
> Artist draws all people with body fat
>> They apparently have some sort of fat fetish
> Artist draws everyone aggressively white / pale
>> No one says anything
> Artist has all POC ocs
>> It's "blackwashing" (its literally their own ocs)
> Artist draws all trans people as perfectly passing
>> No one says anything
> Artist draws trans people that dont pass as well and dont fit into the cisgender norms (women with facial hair, men with hips, etc)
>> They're making caricatures with the intent of harming people
ppl only ever get upset by things that arent the super hetero cis skinny white capitalist shit / directly oppose it. like cmon.
Ok so like. Someone in a discord server went 'this dress would look Amazing on Spoke' and I went 'yes it would I'm drawing that' and THEN I had the idea of. What if I make her a Watcher. Because I saw THIS POST and went 'SOOOOOO OK.'
Best decision of my life I think.
So Spoke is a Watcher!
Under cut, design yep, dress inspo image, and a few other shots I took of this. (WHy does taking photos kill the quality sometimes it's depressing...)
Dust gave me the idea to make the lace rainbow since Spoke's skin is black. I very much enjoyed the idea.
purple and blue are the main colours for Watchers in my head, so I put heavy emphasis on that! Red for danger and blood, rainbow cause this is Spoke.
For the scars, I actually wanted to do smthn akin to that one pottery tehnique, Kintsugi? I don't know too much about it (YOU SHOULD LOOK INTO IT. IT SOUNDS SO COOL) but it's like when a piece of pottery breaks instead of remaking it or smthn you fill in the cracks with gold? I thought that was a REALLY COOL IDEA so why not do it on Spoke! :D
Command block cause it's Spoke, dice for luck/chance, eyes bc Watcher, Black tar-esque thing for corruption.
I don't normally draw dresses (aka I haven't ever drawn one like this and I haven't drawn one in general in like months) but I think this one turned out chill :D so yippee!
sorry I'm not talking too much. I'm lowk kinda tired, but I wanted to get this out! yippee!
I got inspired. And. Well. I think I like Medusa/Team Awesome a BIT too much...
A webweave of them!

c! not cc! btw idgaf whether cc!Marlow has cheated or not this is her CHARACTER from UU.
alt versions under the cut, along with... guess what... ART RANT (why I did what!)
Alright so. The armour was just I wanted eyes everywhere to show that Ash is always watching, Diamond cause ofc, black bodysuit/armour thing under the netherite netherite because I refuse to fall for that trope that pretty means ABSOLUTELY DYSFUNCTIONAL AND WILL GET YOU KILLED BECAUSE YOU HAVE EVERY BODY PART EVER EXPOSED TO THE UNIVERSE WHERE IT WILL MEET NO RESISTANCE TO BLADES OF ANY SORT.
I dislike that trope. Make things pretty, sure. But don't make them USELESS...
The underarmour is also woven with netherite threads.
Blue is Marlow's main colour here, along with the red to show the blood that now covers her hands, and the purple. Because Ash.
I like the background a bunch cause. Eyes, purple, to show Ash is always watching, red to show the blood that covers her life, and blue! Because Marlow! Diamond trims! Blue! That's her main colour!
She's holding an invis pot and her mace, ofc. The blue fading into her face and her hair is the INVISIBILTY! Either residue of overuse, or it running out.
Uhm that's it for now cause I did put quite a bit of thought into what the colours would be buuuut I used mostly the same colours/palette for all of it!
OH can't forget the purple collar, once again to show that Ash owns all the Diamonds, everyone in the Mafia really but especially the strongest. They all have no power compared to Ash; he is their lord and saviour!
I really want to draw Ash but in like... an angelic pose almost... like posing as a god... ykyk???
sooooo cc!marlow turned out NOT to be cc!marlow. so. uh.
yeah I don't support marloww, but this is still like one of my favourite pieces of art I've ever drawn so- she's an OC now? an Unstable oc or smthn? or also just, yk. c!marlow. idkkkk do whatev
Roshambo Games; God of Chance and Void, the Many-Handed One, They Who Watch
But also, this is kinda the design for Ro in Lost Cause too sooooo for people that came to my tumblr from that. Here you go! My official design for them! EXCEPT. This isn't the Ro that appears when they're on the human realm, this is how the mortals view them and one of their forms that they can take. When they're roaming on earth with Wemmbu, they don't take this form since that would, y'know, be a BIT conspicuous. Just a tiny bit. x4
A bit on my design choices/why things look this way and unedited photos under the cut! :D
SOO. When I started drawing God-Ro, I first asked myself 'what do I think communicates 'god'? And lowk, for me it was the feeling of mystery. Someone who doesn't look real, and yet it. You don't know what they look like, but they are always watching. Always observing.
The hands, are like. Yeah. It's Ro. The eyes communicate that they are always watching, always observing. They see everything. The hands glow with their own aura because they may be extensions of Ro, but they are still power in their own right.
Half of Ro's body is covered in bandages because they themselces are covered in layers of hurt, walls that can be flimsy but no one has broken/cut through yet because they don't realize it's a cause of concern. Why cut through bandages? They're only meant to heal after all!
The bandages don't heal. They hide.
Ro's colour scheme is almost entirely purple-periwinkle-white, BUT. There's the few aspects of red too. There's the heart, that signifies him as Lifesteal, and there's the red halo intertwined with his blue, and the arm that seems to dissolve into a mess of blue-red wires and energy. The red represents the one attachment that is still so huge to them, even though neither Ro nor Mapicc realize or pay much attention to it. It festers in it's own pool of regret and neglect, but Ro unconsciously can't let go of this part of themselves that was so important to them.
Ro's hands have aura. The words have weight. The background has lining. The eyes interrupt everything around them. BUT. Ro themselves, doesn't have one.
They are surrounded by the absence. The null, the void. The only thing that can come into that absence is themselves the extensions of their own power because this void is Ro. It is a part of them, in the way they move and breathe and feel.
For the background colour scheme, I'll be real I just did random shit that looked good for the most part. The red is both Mapicc and the way the world is always surrounded by pinpricks of hurt and pain. Orange is orange. Blue is Ro, and the sadness that is prevalant in the world around them. Green is green, as well as false joy and the claim that everything's fine, they're defending themselves against everything negative the world is throwing at them.
The yellow not only looks pretty, and is Zam, BUT. It also symbolizes the happy that is in the air around them. It's false, but no one needs to know that. They aren't happy, but if they pretend their world is then no one will know, and no one will be burdened by Ro.
And, coming back to the lack of anything around Ro, this is what they hide beneath all their defenses.
The void. The utter lack, the numbness of not being sure. What they feel, why they feel, what's wrong with them-
It's the black hole inside of them that won't leave, that sucks every thought away and leaves them with nothing but exhaustion and abyss.
The background is layers of shields, built to hide what's really inside. The sadness is a part of them, the anger the hurt the pain even the happiness, it's all a part of them. But they're using each individual part of them to hide every other part. Half-truths and misdirections.
Also the rest of it is cause it looks pretty and I felt like it!
AND AND AND the angel symbolism. They try so hard to be perfect, you know what symbolizes perfect? Angels. They try so hard to be the light, to be good and awesome and fine and amazing, but the angel is a facade.
The eyes symbolize that they're always watching, but it also symbolizes that they're always being watched. To Ro, the pressure never lets up. They always have to be perfect. The eyes get through everything, penetrate everything, and Ro is left being watched, isolated, and hidden.
Watch the world burn and pray for release - let me prove my worth and maybe I'll be seen.
Wemmbu fanart!!! Lowk this one is fairly old but I never actually posted it sooooo here it is!
This works really well as Law arc but this was actually drawn as during the Power arc or like. Right before Invis. Law Arc does work better though, so this is Law Arc Wemmbu! After he gets the orbitals back, before Lettuce is defeated I'd say.
Under the cut is me overexplaining my art and choices and shit! Because I do that a lot...
SOOOOOO. First off, something you probably noticed. The little pieces of everyone. First off, the most obvious I'd say, Rejoice. His sunflowers are kinda everywhere; in Wemmbu's hair, on the mace, even the shoulder and elbow things (dunno what those open thingies are called when there's like a hole so that skin is exposed) are somewhat shaped like a sunflower. And then there's Flame, who has a few fire designs that technicallyyyyy could be passed off as just a stylistic choice but. Who're we kidding. And finally, Egg. A few eye designs and stuff. This was kinda to represent that Wemmbu fights for them, remembers them, they are always with him even. When Rejoice died, they were a reminder of what not being strong enough led to. A reminder of what was lost because of his failure. eventually this mindset went away and it was just, remembering the past. Flame is his rival but they are also incredibly like. THEM. Egg is someone he wants to remember. He knows Egg would remember him, so he constantly keeps the reminder of what he's trying to protect.
He's covered in gold too bc I hc that he likes gold. Like stylizing his horns with gold, his outfits with it, etc.
Loppezz broke his horn in the prison :3 That's why he has nothing to remember her, because he doesn't want to. He made a mistake with her but she broke something incredibly precious to a demon.
NOWWWW, for the background details!!
Surrounded by fire and destruction in an otherwise clear day, he sets the world around him on fire. The edges are... darker kinda, because the world feels like it's closing in on him and he always needs to fit inside this box of perfect destruction, but what happens when he can't anymore?
He's outlined in red and orange because he uses the mask of destruction to shield himself from the eventual heartbreak and regret that comes with opening himself up.
The sun in the corner is artificial, but it's the only light he gets, really. In the colours of the people he cares about, because they are the ones that can draw him out. But, the sun doesn't take up the entire thing, only that little corner. Because even though he's drawn to them, he's afraid of being hurt again so he only gives them the littlest space to find a way into his shield.
Uhhhhhhhhhhh yeahhhh lowk that's all the actual lore in this the rest of it is just 'oooh that looks pretty :D'
Trust no one, RekRap2. Hasn't he taught you? - Betrayal doesn't come from enemies does it?
So :3
Finally finished this guy! To all my other requests, I am working on those :D this guy was just completed first lol
and now, under the cut, talking abt my design choices and why I did what!
So I got asked for Rek. And I used to be really into Rek, like a year or so ago? And I do watch his videos quite a bit, since they're very fun :D and so I knew I wanted to make this more s3!Rek coded.
s3!Rek was paranoia at it's finest. Always hyper-vigilant, watching and noticing everything he could, constantly surrounded by danger signs and warnings. His main objective? Not to die (to traps at least).
And that's something I kinda wanted to represent with this. I got a book on Floriography for my birthday, so I really wanted to put that to use and incorporate a flower. And I found it, 'Oleander'. Meaning, caution. I feel like there are a few flowers that could represent Rek pretty well, but Oleander was the best one here in my opinion. The original plan was to make him hold the full flower thing, but I decided against that, instead having him hold a singular flower with the rest of them floating around him or on the ground. Caution is everywhere, he has to be careful not to step wrong.
The hearts are because, well, this is Lifesteal. All of Rek's caution is because this is Lifesteal. The warning signs are all from Lifesteal.
There's also his main colour scheme, blue and yellow, which I wanted to incorporate a bit! I think it looks pretty nice and stands out well so :D
The green is lowk meant to represent Parrot a bit, since he was his main source of paranoia!
The constant hypervigilance makes it's presence known as the outline type thing around Rek, slightly inspired by the spidey sense! I think it's a really cool way of showing alertness, vigilance, and I felt like it worked well here so :3
The red represents blood and horror and stress and blood and everything that makes Lifesteal Lifesteal! It is also a reminder that while Rek may be nice, he is not against murder or killing or what Lifesteal is about. He enjoys it, enjoys the adrenaline and the chase and the feeling of being hunted or the hunter.
And of course, the alert signs! Once again, leaning heavily into the paranoia. Everything is a warning sign, something to be watched closely.
I honestly really had fun drawing this one and deciding what to do for it, thank you so much for asking for Rek! It also gave me an excuse to practice poses :D sorry it's so late, hope you like it!!
