some small concepts I made of some friends Ellis could have

[coffeepill]

also since their sprite ref is finally done I was able to add them to my roster, feel free to find them on artfight yay

[coffeepill]

finally got them ready to fend for themselves in the woods wish them luck

I admit I took longer to make this than I’d like to admit, but I’m actually quite happy with how it turned out?

some bonus notes:

- Out of all Freddy chains, Ellis was most familiar with The New & Improved Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza era. Not exactly as a huge fan, but they had the most exposure to that one in particular and at least visited once to attend a party

- As noted, if asked what animatronics they like, Ellis would most likely say one of the Bonnie variants? They’d default to Toy Bonnie from memory, but could grow fond of Withered Bonnie under non life-threatening scenarios (and Ellis would like Jeremy too if he counts)

- In terms of design and characterization, while I don’t exactly consider Ellis to look heavily inspired by Mangle? (at least compared to other more purposely paralleled designs I’m pretty sure I’ve seen, Ellis looks a bit more simple after all) some funny parallels they do purposely have with the animatronic includes but not limited to—

Ellis having heterochromia (albeit not quite portrayed in the artstyle), and you could say the slight inverse of the hair colour could reflect a small inverse with confidence, as Ellis is a lot more self-conscious of their appearance and doesn’t consider themself very pretty unlike Mangle. Though they are both considered pretty lonely individuals, oh and Ellis would not like being stared at too much actually.

working on a ref during free time only for my hand to start cramping it crazy style

[coffeepill]

this loser is getting their own little sprite for fun, but after the pain they made me go through (lineart & shading) they will pay dearly. I will throw them to the wolves (joining the artfight roster) like a wicked sorceress.

bonus funfact: Ellis only knows how to tie a bowtie, and can’t tie a tie. It’s why they fashion a bowtie on their uniform, and if a tie was ever required for a look, they would need to ask someone for help.

[coffeepill]

this just happens sometimes

[coffeepill]

ideally, Ellis would like to play around with their fashion more and wants to feel cute(?), but they kinda feel like they lack the style right now

[coffeepill]

their general canon depiction tends to have them looking at least a little bit miserable

[coffeepill]

I haven’t made a fnaf oc since like middle school, but the overall style and humour of frickbears3 entertained me a good amount. anyways hello Ellis

(^ initial drawings/first small drafts)

a small (rough) introduction:

“Yup, that’s me. Ellis Walker. You’re probably wondering how I ended up in this situation—”

Ellis might not exactly stand out well as an individual, and they’d agree with you. Don’t let the coloured hair fool anyone, that was done in the middle of an ongoing crisis. With struggles to find stable footing in the world & figuring out who they are on their own, this overly caffeinated young adult is wired with far more anxiety than they’d like to have. For once, Ellis just wants to find the confidence they need and take control of their own path. Though, they probably should have reconsidered this job position for their first step.

man.
