Great news: you can pay me now! I’ve opened 10 commission slots on my Ko-fi, where I also take donations. You can request an icon/pfp, a design sheet for your OCs, a full scene concept, etc. in a style of your choice as long as you choose the correct add-ons; DM me before ordering if you’re unsure about pricing. Commissions are for personal use only.
(The “1/?” is a lie, I’ve gone through an embarrassing and/or completely necessary number of unpresentable character concept sketches already.)
Expect a few more pages like this as I continue to develop a color palette and style that’ll fit the story’s tone without giving me carpal tunnel. ^^ If you’re interested in the project, I’m afraid I don’t have a logline (or title!) yet, but how’s this: imagine Miraculous Ladybug, but the romantic leads are enemies instead of allies and also it’s not 90% filler and not for little kids and kinda monsterfucker-adjacent? and honestly not much like Miraculous Ladybug. This sheet has a total of four (4) characters. Hope that makes sense
I didn’t mean to pause the Arcane x Hepburn series, but once I had this idea I had to get it on paper (on … screen? pixels?) immediately. My goal was to make designs that didn’t just look like diet/transitional versions of her canon outfits while also maintaining enough continuity/shared motifs as to be immediately recognizable as Jinx. I’m pretty happy with the results!
The first design was a lot of fun because it diverged the most from canon (and honestly verges on fanfic in and of itself, tbh). It’s Jinx at her Silco-est, with base colors and motifs lifted directly from Silco’s pre-timeskip character sheet (did you notice his vest is dark purple? that his pant seams are coming apart? this is important to me). I have a feeling that Silco had a parenting period, however brief, where he tried to gift her the sort of clothes that you’d expect a wealthy industrialist’s child to wear — not to minimize her self-expression, mind you, but just because it seemed like the appropriate thing to do. Jinx, still reeling from the recent trauma conga line, would be more passionate about being “useful” than about cultivating her personal aesthetic, so it’s more through natural habit than through conscious tween rebelliousness that she wears everything incorrectly. I doubt Silco would mind, especially if she’s making the effort to wear the entirely superfluous sock garters, but he is bothered by all the bruises and scrapes and definitely feels relieved when she starts wearing parkour-appropriate clothing.
The second design is definitely more post-timeskip-Jinx-lite, but I still like it a lot! Her top is supposed to be a cropped painter’s apron (if I showed the back it’d echo the back of her canon crop top) and her boots are based on one of the Firelights’ designs. At this age she’d finally be less broody and more punk rock, relatively comfortable with herself and asserting her own personal style. She’s also a better, more confident combatant and athlete, so she has fewer scrapes and more muscle.
That’s all my notes! I’d love to see people extrapolate more/different things from these designs tho. These were a lot of fun and I might do this for other characters ^^
I polled some of my followers on Twitter to choose between Heimerdinger and Singed for this particular look from Sabrina (1954); their participation and verdict are most appreciated. (It was a closer call than you might think.) Next piece will be Caitlyn ^^
