Some "May the Fourth Be With You" art! The Mandalorian edition! So in this case, it's "This Is The May!"

Took me around sixteen minutes in total to finish, across two days. My favorite duo!

THE TIME HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! I PRESENT TO YOU... THE ONE... THE ONLY... TIME STEVE! 🎉👏👏👏👏🎉👏👏👏👏🎉

This took way too long than it actually needed to be. Y'all! I was struggling! With the stupid pose!!! The POSE! HOW?! I wasn't satisfied! I took at least a week or two just redrawing and erasing so much that I had to take a break... From him though, I have started drawing other characters. Because I already knew how I wanted to pose everyone else, but him? It was vague! But I ended up with this, and I'm fine now! Everything else was relatively smooth sailing. I had the design via OG reference, all I changed were minor details. Like how many buttons are on his cloak. The original had two on each side, adding up to four, but when I sketched it, it looked off so I changed it to three. Rainbow Quest version has four on one side and it's open but this guy is Steve Saga version.

Btw, I'm making designs for RQ, just thought I'd mention this, it's for meme purposes.

Anyway, now he has up to six buttons. The one at the top is for his hood, which is separate from the trench coat, cloak thing, not entirely sure what the proper name for it is, but that button is only on the hood. The other changes I made was adding a trim to his attire! The coat has a darker brown lining it while the hood has a silver lining to it. You can't see it in the low quality photo, I apologize, but there is an hour glass at the top of his hood too. Very small. Looks like it's attached to the top of his mask but it's not, it's part of the hood, I promise when I draw everyone digitally you will be able to see it more clearly. As well as everything else.

His mask! I made the clock face his mask, it's got simple thick lines around it indicating the time. I thought numbers would not fit and the Roman numerals would look cool but I don't think it would fit on this paper either, so I just made simple lines. Plus he seems like the type of dude who would wear simpler clothing, if there is details they aren't much, just complimentary details.

He has silver hair, skin, and eyes, since the side of his Minecraft skin is silver and it's like a watch, so he's silver now, and his eyes are also like his mask, having lines like a clock.

The last thing in details I want to explain is more about his mask! Has anyone watched the anime Bleach? 😏✨Well! The Hollow masks can fade in and out, and that is what I decided Time's mask would do too! Pretty cool idea, if I do say so myself. 😚👌That is why it is incomplete and you can see his left eye. It is in the middle of fading onto his face!

As for the last bit of explanation, the colors were easy because yeah. Referencing the original! Oh. One more thing about the hood. It was a problem in the sketch phase... I ask for my twin sister's opinion sometimes when I'm unsure of something or want to check if it's ready or not, and she didn't like the hood. So I had to redo this thing too! And it was just unsatisfactory! So then I went on Pinterest to look at references. Just so you know, there are many different types of hoodies... Big loose or droopy ones in robes, skinny ones that hug your head on modern hoodies and jackets, wide medium ones on coats, you get the idea! I was looking for something between a cloak and a modern hoodie. As you can see in the original skin, you can see his face. I interpreted this as it is not a big, droopy hood, but it is made of loose cloth. So a bit of both captures this design that I needed. I'm pretty sure my sister was thinking about big droopy hoodies because we kinda argued over it but it's fine! She says this is alright. I understand that hoods can drop but his doesn't drop that much! And considering the pose he's in, he's pulling the hood up so the back being closer to his head makes sense. Either way, I have this as the final product! Since you can't see the back of said hoodie, I will tell you there is some cloth hanging behind him. Once more, the original skin has some in the back so I kept it. You just can't see it. Maybe he'll be on an animation in the future and then you can see it! 😁

That is all! Our time with this character has ended and it is time to move on to the next one. Maybe I'll be more in my element. 🍃🔥💧⚡❄️🌪️ I said too many times puns, my bad, see you later y'all!

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Time Steve

Abilities: Controls Time, of course... I thought it would be interesting to add he has a room that keeps track of lives. He can see when it's someone's time of end. When whatever item used for tracking lifespan runs out, like the sand in an hourglass all reaching the bottom, or a clock stops ticking, maybe a count down device or a simple candle stick, those are lives meet their demise. Guess what? He has one too! It's on his face! When does it stop? Nobody knows! He doesn't either, just in the moment these items stop working at the end of their time, and someday his will too, we just don't see it.

Personality: a fast learner, tactful, knowledgeable, strategic, caring, careful, powerful, friendly, content, peaceful, and empathetic.

It's been ages since I've been here and I'm sorry but so many things were happening on top of that, I was tired, but I hope I can get back into things and post more again.

For the Steve Saga Rewrite traditional designs, the next character drawing is definitely taking longer than I thought... I'm just not completely satisfied with it yet so I'm looking for more inspiration to refresh my brain. It will pop up some day soon!

As for my original story, Positives & Negatives, drawing the scenes is taking a while as usual and I'm trying to put up the next character profile first, I don't have the info organized though. I used to have it all written down but that document got lost years ago, so what y'all are reading right now is what I remember of what happened in the story with revised writing here and there. Don't worry, I remembered nearly everything I originally wrote years ago as well as what I planned on so there aren't that many changes other than updating my narrative skills and rearranging details. I am struggling with some chapters recently as I'm not sure how much information I want to share yet nor how to write it in naturally, but I have made some progress, I'm figuring it out. All the character info however, I barely remember it all correctly so I have to redo them completely. Other than age, name, description, and a couple of other things I had to redo everyone's profile information. But I'm almost done with the next one! All the profile art is done! Except for one person! You'll probably know who because surprisingly, I haven't drawn him that often. I am not used to drawing him yet so his profile art is still in the sketch phase. I'll get there!

And for the rest of the things I post, such as Sky photos, I have a ton I want to share, and other things, those are small posts to pass the time to anyone who is waiting and interested in what I have to offer. I have a fun doodle of myself too so while everyone waits for me to post again, look! It's me! I am burning! Haha! Let's be honest, I started the fire..

🔥🔥🔥

By the way, no, I did not draw the fire, I used a flaming background IbisPaint has. The rest was me. 😊

[featherwingfox]

Y'all look at his face- I mean, uh... Hat! (Shhh, he's sensitive!)

I'm done making fun of him.

I love fedoras. One of the coolest hats I've ever seen. It was one of the WORST THINGS TO DRAW!!!! It looks amazing now, but the process was quite the long journey. It didn't help that I had no pose figured out yet either, but I managed to get it done right! The hand was iffy but it looks good now too. I'm still not sure why I can draw hands better than other things, like hats, when it's one of the many things artists are cursed with being unable to draw! Oh well! I guess my drawing process for hands is a good one?

Anyway, I kept his attire the same as in the OG series. I think I did a good job interpreting the pixels on the Minecraft skin. He's just got some plain short, pants, and a cool coat. Or maybe it's a really long cardigan. Since he doesn't have pockets... Everyone point and laugh at him!!! 🫵🤣

The colors were easy to gather, just black and gray. But his pallet almost blends in too much. I pulled up a picture as a reference, which made it easier, and it helped me know which spots are darker or lighter. His... ahem.... "Face" was the easiest part to draw and color. Point and laugh again btw, 🤣🫵 and I'm sure you have noticed, his wrist had the fade thing. I like the Rainbow Quest design of Faceless so I thought his skin would look like that underneath. You probably won't see much of it though since he has long sleeves. Maybe during some battle he'll get tears in his shirt to see more of the cool design. But for now he's going to stand here and pretend he's cool. He may look like a detective but let me tell ya, the only crimes you're gonna solve are the ones he's committed.

This was a simple design that I had fun drawing. When will the next post go up? Only time will tell... 🕰️

Personality: cruel, malicious, selfish, vile, evil, clever, cowardly, and tricky.

[featherwingfox]

Some more photos of my sister in Sky: Children of the Light! I told her to stand on something above me and play her electric guitar. She looks epic! It kinda looks like a music video for a rock song about the stars. Sky is a very sweet and cool game we play together.

See y'all in the next post! ☺️

[featherwingfox]

A pure being of Darkness! If any of the villains were the evilest, I say Void takes the cake.

His pose took some retries but otherwise went well. Hands weren't easy but there was no struggle. I got the proportions right, the clothing was easy to figure out since I had his OG Minecraft skin as a reference. Which by the way, I don't think he has pants. He's pure darkness in a hoodie, nothing else. 😐

Okay, so the rest of this drawing, his face is the easiest thing I had to draw... but the hood... That stupid, fluffing, HOODIE, gave me SO MUCH TROUBLE!!!! I SPENT A WEEK ON THAT THING!!! I hated drawing his hoodie! It looks so good now, but the process was such a terrible experience it might top NIGHTMARE STEVE!!! You could say it made a void in my heart after this. I love hoodies, but not that much... to let it slide, Void, you are the worst. And I'd say it to his face! He's done nothing against me and would probably say, "I have no idea who you are," but I'd really give it to him for this! I'd murder him with words! This dumb hood, took a week to get right. It was the worst time for drawing it seems. I almost forgot the second worst part! HIS FOOT!!! WHY?!?! I COULDN'T MAKE IT LOOK CORRECTLY, SUCH A NUISANCE! I eventually got this and decided good enough, I don't want to spend another second on that. Didn't take a week for the love of pickles, but was unnecessarily a tough time getting it right. Geez these major villains are out to get me!!!

AUGH! 😤

Besides that, the face and hood is my favorite part. The face, which is just eyes really, did take a while, nothing like the HOOD, but he still has a face to angle and that is important even if you can't see the outlines. The angle of the eyes do help you imagine it, so I'm happy with it. Lastly there is the colors the most peaceful coloring I've done for the Steve Saga characters. Light Steve doesn't count because he isn't colored in, but was the most peaceful to draw. ☺️ Back to Void, he's mostly black and dark gray but I added a hint of brown to his hoodie. When I looked at the reference it looked a little brown so there we go! I finally got this dude finished. I post the drawings in the order they are done but the pages are not in the same order. This page is right after Galaxy Steve, but at the time he was not finished, I didn't even have the full sketch yet. And you can see the dates or when I finish the design in the top right corner. Pretty recent, the Steve Saga Fan Rewrite posts are probably going to get slower from here on out. I will also be spending my time working on other projects, like my current original story Positives & Negatives (has nothing to do with the Steve Saga ones, came from my little brain myself! 😀) as well as other things I'm making. Like animations/animatics I want to make. So please be patient dear Sky People! Thank you for checking out my art and maybe other stuff! Hope you have a lovely day or night, see you next time on another post with a new face! 🫥🔲

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Void Steve

Abilities: can fly, use lightning, travel to his dimension, the Void, with ease, erase things, and use pure darkness.

Personality: manipulative, patient, powerful to the point it's frightening, tough, confident, taunting, vicious, intimidating, and evil! At this point who isn't?

[featherwingfox]

Yeah!!!! Purple Pumpkin! What a funny dude.................. Sorry, I love this character but it has been a while so I don't actually remember what he was like before getting his brain fried!

Anyway! This was one of the easiest and simple drawings I've made so far. I thought he'd wear pretty simple clothes and I'd put something unique later, which was the scarf, but before that I wasn't sure what I'd add. You can thank my sister for telling me to give him a scarf. I gave it some diamond patterns. I think it brings it all together, simple but not too plain. And of course there's the pumpkin head. Can't forget that! I made a mistake while coloring it. I made it have yellow in the eyes instead of black because I was thinking about jack-o'-lanterns... But how can you have a lit jack-o'-lantern if someone's wearing it as a mask?! And in the OG it obviously didn't have that either, my mind just blankly thought light it up! Good thing it's an easy fix, I covered it up! I colored it with black so now it's done. The pose I chose I mostly made myself. I did use some references for the legs but everything else was me. I asked myself what kind of pose would someone do if they were like a young child, full of innocence and wonder? Or you know... Had a fried brain and still recovering? Sitting down and thinking! He's also the first character in the Steve Saga I've drawn sitting down! I finished off the design by doodling little flowers and question marks floating around him. And hey, the hands were not causing problems! I did good! Yay! Oh, I want to tell y'all that in my rewrite I want him to be called Pumpkin! It's sweet and since Sabre was pretty much acting like a single father of two overpowered kids that fight each other and a third little kid who is exploring and getting in danger because of it. All of them are adults but the situation was such a mess, probably in the top five funniest episodes. And I like the nickname Pumpkin, it's sweet!

Even though I don't remember much about him before becoming like this, I definitely remember him with the pumpkin and how he acted. What a funny scenario Sabre found himself in during this time! 😆 Welp. I'm rewatching the entire series anyway. I'll see him again. I don't want any voids in my writing after all! See you tomorrow with a new design post! 🕳️

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Purple Steve/Pumpkin

Abilities: teleport (long or short distances with ease, even to locations without lightning), projectiles will always miss... so far this is all, not sure if there is anything else but if I find more I will come back and add it! I suppose surviving his brain getting fried should be put here. He channeled the powers of the CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE to help Galaxy restore his abilities, this is an achievement if anything!

Personality: curious, likes shiny things, simple, oblivious, and childlike, but not in a bratty way, just innocent and full of wonder.

[featherwingfox]

Beautiful, I am so proud- I look at this and think, "I drew her!" And she's beautiful! It's the eyes I tell ya! I'm so happy!!!! 😊

I didn't make any mistakes this time! She has none! I didn't really mess with the design because well, it's Alex, Minecraft Alex. The one in Steve Saga specifically, she's so nice.

👍🙂👍

So her clothing design was simple. As for everything else, it was easy! But not the braids, I'll get to that last. I wanted her eyes to be the prettiest part. I don't know how, but I unconsciously drew her eyes to resemble the shape of emeralds. When I was done drawing them I looked at the page and just paused, noticing how great they turned out but I somehow wasn't thinking while doing that. Well, by far my favorite part of the drawing. And despite what I said in the past post, she isn't evil. I know, I know, I said villains wear green. But she isn't wearing THAT much green. It's only evil green if it takes up most of your appearance. This amount of green is innocent green, good green! While the eyes are amazing and fun to draw, the braids look amazing and were a pain to draw. Not too much but enough to set it down, look for references, repeat the process of drawing them and erasing them, and then I finally got this! A long time ago I could draw braids a little easier, of course there are those days when the art isn't ARTING but I'm sure I've gotten back into the passing of things, I'm satisfied and proud of these braids. They needed to curve more since it was over her shoulder but the biggest problem was just looking stiff. It might still be the case here but it looks way better than what I had before! And then there was the look of a braid itself, the braiding design. I tried hearts and squiggly lines, I tried the zigzag thing, it wasn't working for me. I found that just drawing ovals was the best method. For me, if y'all want to try it out take my advice on finding what works for you. Not everyone can draw the same thing in the same way, as long as you get there it is worth figuring out. The hands weren't a problem, it was a good day to draw hands... Or a hand. The other is out of the picture but I promise, it wasn't because I needed a way to cover it up this time! Sometimes I just draw too far to the side of the page, you can't see her boots either! Oh, one other thing. As I've said in previous posts, I tend to mess up lighter skin tones. Now in her face I did, but I managed to erase most of it and fix it. Draw lightly with the brighter orange color pencil and lightly with a light pink. Adjust and blend with either color if you need more. I need to remember this myself as I keep trying to use the tan colored pencil when it has never worked well for me!

So, Alex has a lot of backstory and her travels with Sabre in the later parts of the OG series were fun. In this fan rewrite I have edited some things. I understand she went through a lot and deep down was just trying to be helpful or at least live peacefully, but there were some scenes of her losing it, mostly the one where she gets overwhelmed with pressure and stress so she lost control, and it she decided that... Destroying everything was the solution? I mean, once again considering her past experiences and the time building up to that moment, it was rough, in fact rough is an understatement. As much as I can see why that could happen, my interpretation of her character herself felt too strong and conflicted with this scene. At first she just wanted to live peacefully, she'd be lucky if she found a nice village that accepted her. Then, after meeting Sabre, I'm pretty sure she just wanted to help and it was a strong feeling. Now her losing control is still going to happen, resulting in the plot moving forward and yada yada, but she doesn't just suddenly want to destroy everything. That's the logic a villain would have, I BLAME THE GREEN!!!

ahem

Alex is a good person. She has her flaws, she has her moments, she struggles and she fails, she also does well, overcoming problems, and finds a way, but most of all she is true to herself and does what she thinks is best when she is in the right mindset, even in her times of panic and breaking down, she wouldn't want to destroy everything as that ruins her whole purpose on trying to help in the first place. And she learns to rely on her new friends. Sabre and the others are there for her, but she can't be helped if she doesn't let them help her, and she realizes this. I have fleshed out her character a little more by these little changes and one I want to show you right now is that Alex loves this world too much to think she needs to destroy it. The only reason why she'd do so is if she unintentionally does this, is being controlled, or loses control of her powers. Willingly she wouldn't. In this fan rewrite she is taught the lesson that not everything is perfect, and that is perfect. It is okay, whether win or lose, succeeded or failed, in the end it is okay.

My brain is a little fried from all this thinking and deep wisdom, I might need to wear this. 🎃 See you tomorrow with another design!

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Alex

Abilities: Um......... Goddess powers....??? 🤷‍♀️ The power of creation and stuff. I dunno...

Personality: friendly, smart, nice cool, curious, and powerful.

By the way y'all, my mom said she looks like Shaggy from Scooby Doo and I can't help but agree now... 😭👍

[featherwingfox]

Ah yes... You can tell he's a villain because he's wearing all green! It's probably just his favorite color, lol. It's the worst doctor in the world! Y'all better eat your apples everyday, or better yet, enchanted golden apples, yeaaaah, those will really get him running for the hills!

I chose this pose as it shows you how formal he's being. Even though it's a trick! What a conniving green and blue medieval doctor! Can you tell that I want to punch him yet? Do not worry, someone's going to do it for me and I am excited to draw it... ☺️ Now back to the topic of my drawing decisions... This pose is perfect in my opinion as he is putting on the facade of being friendly, his hand is behind his back suspiciously. It is normal for people to put a hand behind them while bowing respectfully but with how his character is that of a liar, it makes sense there would be an alternative intention. So not only does this pose have him appear nice and trustworthy, it also shows he's hiding something and keeping secrets, dishonesty at it's finest. His outfit was fun to put together. Using Pinterest I found many plague doctor references but I wanted a simpler one... Most of them were intricate or epic! This dude is horrible not epic! I found a few good references I was looking for so here it is. I gave him a nice hat with a green and a blue feather. The coloring was easy and yet not easy. Though I was mostly using two colors, the green needed to be in different shades. I needed the green to not blend in so much so I had different types of green. The blue helped separate the greens too, it was helpful. I like the fade at the bottom of his robe. I blended in the blue since there wasn't enough. It was the perfect spot! I enjoyed drawing his little what's it? Not a cloak. It's the small shoulder thingy, why don't I know what it's called?! A shawl??? Whatever! I liked drawing that part! Because of the fluttering wave of his movements. The feet when crossed like this worry me in my other drawings as usually they appear to look broken instead of crossing but this one did well! I don't know about y'all but to me they look right and not confusing, I will still practice just in case. As for his hand! I did another thing to avoid drawing them completely! I just made the frame of a hand instead of making the fingers clear. Every time I tried to outline the fingers it looked weird or they were the wrong size! The perspective needed his hand to curve slightly over his chest, but you know what? It looks fine! I like the hand, hated the process. Not the worst that has happened though... *COUGH COUGH* Nightmare Steve *cough*

Oh, I should mention that I didn't intend for him to look like this at first. I tried to draw his face but nothing satisfied me or my sister, who watched the OG series with me and was giving a second opinion. Nothing I made felt like, "Yep, that's how the character looks like!" And it was just not clicking for Plague over here, this duuuude, I know he's a terrible person but those faces were not it, they were just screaming it ain't it Chief! So what did I do to solve this face problem? I covered it up! Yay! We no longer have to see his ugly mug!🤩 That is when I decided to just give him the plague doctor attire. His name is Plague Steve so it was the perfect solution. It just makes sense. And I've been wanting to draw a plague doctor for a while so this was a good place to start. He's a fake and a fraud. But still a plague doctor, just not what you'd expect of one.

Shall I explain why he's a bad guy for those of you who may not know? Well, he weasels his way into towns pretending to be a good doctor, and brainwashed people slowly over time to control them. In my story the specifics are he gains trust, acting as though someone is coming down with a small cold or a sore throat and he can help them. He is really just infecting people with a disease of his making. It infects the mind slowly as to go unnoticed by others. It will spread to others and over time, the target's opinion of Plague Steve will rise. It rises so much that it could reach the level of worshipping him. Being a devoted follower. And nobody would notice. As time passes and his brainwashing disease has spread to the entire town, an unfortunate end will come to it's residents. It's still a disease and it isn't just a brainwashing infection. It still makes you sick. Though slow, it will continue to hinder people's health and eventually they will all die because of it. That is when Plague Steve moves on to the next town, to start over... UNTIL HE CAME TO THE RAINBOW TOWN! OHOHOHO, Sabre is different! He got sick, but he couldn't be brainwashed! Hence how he figured out Plague was a manipulative villain and kicked him out! Had quite the mess to clean up after that. He was not happy. And neither was Plague, nobody has ever been immune to his disease before, to him this was impossible. He did not like that! But that is where I end this little ramble.

Plague was a disgusting SSSSICKO but the next character I have prepared for everyone is nothing like him. A very nice person, can you guess whoooo? 👕🧡

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Plague Steve

Abilities: can fly, infect people with a brainwashing disease, summon and control slime.

Personality: persuasive, charismatic, patient, careful, manipulative, two-faced, self-absorbed, if he is angered he will hold a deep grudge, can act recklessly as he's blinded by rage, and acts foolishly.

[featherwingfox]

Look at this dude... Suspicious... He is definitely scheming something! He has a knife and isn't afraid to use it! 😀🔪

Shadow is here and wants to hurt people! In the OG he was just a watered down version Dark Steve, though behaved much worse than him, but in this rewrite I have given him just a little more thought and is not watered down anymore, I hope. He was just more obedient than Dark. Shadow was like a assistant working under Nightmare Steve and Dark Steve. He wasn't as strong as Dark was but he definitely listened to Nightmare better. He enjoyed his tasks. Unlike Dark who just followed orders. Shadow in my fan rewrite is like an assassin or a ninja. It seemed like the best profession for him since he is very skilled in stealth. His personality wasn't much to figure out, he was one of the easiest ones to redo.

His design took some thought, I had his hair look similar to Dark Steve's hair, just made it longer and gave him some bangs. His cape thing is shorter so it's more like a shawl or something. I gave him a mask but his emotions are revealed through his eyes and eyebrows. Right now he is expecting a fun encounter, probably fighting Sabre. It's a bit hard to tell since the quality of my photos can't get better than this, but he has little wisps of darkness emanating from him. His colors were easy. It's just black and dark gray! As for his shadow dagger, you can see some red in it. It is a little thing I created and plays a big part in one of the future arcs I have planned. 😈 But I think I've been keeping enough secrets about my rewrite so I'll tell you about it!

This is a new thing I made and like to call, ✨redstone infused items!✨ BEHOLD! Now usually redstone is infused with netherite. But Shadow here infused it in his shadow dagger. Or rather, daggers. He has many weapons so stay on guard! Redstone infused netherite was originally made to keep... Certain prisoners from using their abilities. Now, redstone by itself is useful for creating a trap that can affect Steves (and Alexs, but that's a different thing to explain later). EXCEPT FOR RED ONES! Redstone doesn't affect the Red ones as much as the others. This is because they love to EAT IT and have gotten immune over the generations. But if you infuse netherite with redstone, the netherite boosts the affects of the redstone making it stronger, therefore, can affect the Red Steves. In the OG series you can see that when Sabre encounters Shadow for the first time he used a redstone trap. It was weak, but one reason why most redstone machines don't work on Shadow is because he isn't just a piece of Dark Steve, he has a bit of Nightmare mixed in his creation, the Red Steve part, hence why most redstone won't work on him. Now it is only a piece, so it can work, you just need a lot more redstone or redstone infused netherite. Now I'm not explaining Reds here, this is about Shadow. I'm done with the redstone infused thing, back to Shady!

His hand was not easy but drawing them holding something is better than any other hand pose. It looks pretty good. As for the rest of his pose, I needed something that felt almost predatory but also playful. In a bad way. Buddy likes to play but not nicely. He's like a cat with a mouse, he doesn't kill immediately, he usually plays with it, in this case people, first before finishing the job. When it came to Sabre he was at first having fun but Sabre showed him he could fight back. So, Shadow had to get serious and end the fun early as he posed a good threat. Out of all the adversaries Sabre has met, he could fight back against Shadow on his own without someone else's help. Shadow was a great fighter, but he was also foolish and fell for Sabre's traps. Sabre did get help defeating Shadow but he probably would've found a way by himself eventually. Shadow isn't exactly weak but his sneaking around did end a lot of people.

Though Shadow was a sneaky murderer, I doubt he could ever top this next sickening character. See you tomorrow with another design! 😷

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

[featherwingfox]

One of my top favorite characters of the entire series, the Spirit Guardian! AKA Guardian of the Spirit World and Guardian of the World Beyond. You get the idea! He's an ANGEL!!!

I kept his design using the original Minecraft skin as a reference, but I just let his hair stick out of the hood a little. I figured he would have white hair to match his big BEAUTIFUL FEATHERY WINGS!!!!! 😍😍😍 I absolutely love big feather wings! Okay, okay, moving on, the colors were easy since he's mostly black and white, I tend to mess up lighter skin tones in traditional art but I managed not to this time! As for making the black stand out so you can see his pants I had to make it slightly lighter than his robe. I'm happy with how all this turned out! I unfortunately couldn't quite get the hands to look right, so I once again saved myself from the trouble of drawing them by covering them up! You can see some of his left hand so you know he has them, but I posed him in a way that would look natural, including his wings flapping in front of his hands, and it feels like he's descending to meet us! Most likely Sabre to say hello or tell him he's caused some more problems and needs to be responsible and take care of it!

I have been drawing wings, mostly feathery ones, for about as long as I have been drawing. Those are probably the most developed parts of my artistic skills since I can't tell you enough times, I love feathered wings! And as proud of them as I am...... I have noticed mistakes over time that really gets under my skin. I can't fathom how this happened, but some how, I MESSED UP THE WINGS!!! 😭☹️ And now I shall point them out as I need to burn this in my memory so I don't let it happen again, and hopefully helps someone else remember to double check your sketch before starting the line art! There's no fixing mistakes if you notice them after that. It's the point of no return.

There is a second layer of feather on the outside of his left wing, I forgot add a second layer on the inside of his right wing, and it really gets me because I haven't made this mistake in so many years! It came back somehow! Now I'll explain what wings are supposed to look like! Or at least these ones since there are many different shapes and lengths wings have.

These wings are supposed to have the longest feathers on the outside, so that second outer layer is not supposed to be there. On his other wing I forgot the second inner layer. The feathers on the outside are like the backbone of the wings, so there shouldn't be layers outside, only inside. There are two inner layers, the second longest being the support and the smallest ones are the softest. They get smaller and softer the closer they are to the flyer. I hope I explained this well as I have done my best to be clear and understandable. It feels good to talk about these mistakes! As much as they bother me it is okay, I can redraw him in the digital art someday.

Now I can say my last words about the posing. The wings specifically. When they are curved you can not forget the feathers behind the curve. I'm not good with examples, but the best I can explain this, incase you are still confused, is imagine putting on a jacket or a coat without zipping it closed. The opening in the front allows you to see the back of the inside of the jacket. But some of the jacket is curved as it wraps around you while putting it on. Pretend you're invisible or something, you can see the back on the inside of the jacket while the sides are blocked by the front of the jacket. You can even just grab an object like a cup or ball with a piece of paper and wrap the paper around the object. I feel like I'm over explaining now so I shall stop. Thank you for reading if you got confused, I'm told I can be a bit confusing in my writing so I'm trying to fix that.

Some additional details you can't see in the drawing that I'd like to share with y'all is his eyes. You won't see them often, but when you do just know I'm not holding back with how beautiful they'll be. I initially thought they'd be golden but I've seen many fan animations and drawings of him having blue eyes, which I like a lot too, so I'm asking, and y'all please, someone answer😭🙏, should I make them blue or gold? Maybe mix them? I'll mix them if nobody answers again, I'll probably choose this one now! But one thing is for certain, when he's angry they'll turn red! Luckily it is difficult to incur his wrath.

The Spirit Guardian is a great character that I enjoyed and I loved the interactions the others had with him, he's especially fun to mess with. Out of the arcs I have planned, his will probably be my favorite to write and draw. I'm not spoiling anything buuuut let's just say some Demons were not happy with their punishments. 😈

I will see you tomorrow with another design, there is a shady character waiting for you! 👥

Character: Spirit Guardian/Guardian of the Spirit World/Guardian of the World Beyond.

Abilities: can fly with BEAUTIFUL FEATHERY WINGS, travel between dimensions and realms, find lost souls, send souls to be judged, lightning, and powers I added, a HOLY-BLAST-BEAM-WHATEVER-IT-IS, give blessings, make a contract, and can either add or subtract to a judged soul's punishment.

[featherwingfox]

Yay! It's the guy with a bunch of power and has no idea what to do with it! 🎉🥪🎊

Our powerful friend here is one of the goofiest characters in the OG series as well as stupidly strong! I tried to give him an outfit that looked as epic as his position in the world but a pose and expression that captures his personality. I have a very interesting arc for him, oh, it's one of my favorites for sure! Can't wait to get to that part!

His drawing was one of the best ones I've made in this sketchbook and of course it had to be one of my favorites, I love this color palette! The purple as the main focus and working with complimentary colors, they support each other really well. I love color theory if you couldn't tell, so if anyone has questions regarding that subject on art I would love to ramble about it! 😁 Anyway, I knew what colors I'd use, his Minecraft skin being the main reference, but I did use some freedom of design! I did not want him to look too complicated but also not too simple. Of course with colored pencils my creativity was limited, there are things I want him to have that you won't be able to see until the digital art, but this will suffice for now. I'm not going to give you spoilers on what you're missing out! I want it to be a grand reveal now!

I had a bit of trouble with his shirt. I couldn't figure out how I wanted the opening to look like so I found a good reference by reading a comic on Tapas, I believe it was Wicked No More, I recommend it as it is very sweet. Moving on from my side tracks, I am pretty good with drawing ruffles, that part was easy and helpful as I thought his shirt was a little plain. It decorated his shirt well, and now the sleeves! Those were looking plain too, so I experimented with space patterns and decided constellation like patterns were good. It was worrying to color around as I wanted them to be white but I managed without a mishap. I decorated the side of his pants with stars as well as his black boots having a giant one. The little... What are they? There are little rhombus things that tie the front of his majestic cape, they might be buttons??? This is bothering me! What are they?! I think you can clip them on the other side of the cape to keep it wrapped around his shoulders, but I'm unsure. Whatever, he can just lift it up if he wants to take it off! His head can fit through the opening! He has big fluffy hair but don't worry, it'll just, fwoosh, slip on through too. He has it tied in the back, if you can see it, but when he undoes it his hair will puff out, like an afro almost. Big fluffy hair seemed like a common interpretation the fans had so I kept it. While adding my own interpretation of it being tied down in a ponytail... Do I like giving strong beings long ponytails? Well of course! They look cool in it and Galaxy here does too! Speaking of cool, I loved coloring his hair and cape, probably my favorite parts of this drawing. I smudged spots of gel pen ink to make the blurred colors, I'm so proud of it! It looks awesome! Adding some dark blue and a bit of the pink I smudged the ink here and there, adding some more space like color. Guess what? His hands weren't a problem! Of course I always have to redraw hands to look right but I consider it troublesome when it takes more than ten times, or if I feel frustrated. So these were pretty good and they look great. His pose was made to look like he's being scolded by Sabre. I really like drawing his nervous expression. He may have impressive powers but he doesn't want to get on his friend's bad side! I loved the interactions everyone had with him, he's funny. AUGH! BUT I DID MESS UP HIS EYES!!! 😭I wanted them to be brighter! But the yellow in colored pencils, crayons and other traditional art materials always get tainted so easily! The eyes were okay in the final results, I've colored better, but I messed it up and accidentally made them darker because I wanted to use my gold gel pen, but I forgot to test it on my test color page and now they're darker than intended. Which isn't the worst, but I wanted them to be brighter... It's not that bad of a mistake at least, UNLIKE SOMEBODY! Glares at Nightmare

Back then however, I never really colored my art so I did not have an idea of how to color in his skin until I looked at other fan art. I'd probably just draw him with a dark purple color, which did look nice, but I also liked the fan interpretations. So I blended the two colors brown and purple, not sure if you can tell, but I think I did alright. I enjoyed drawing this character a lot, he was fun to design! I will say, when it comes to beings as powerful as Galaxy, I think they'd be taller. Some are taller but still short enough to be about face to face, using Sabre as an example, while others might look over him. Like a certain somebody I won't mention yet, I haven't even finished his scribbly sketch.

But someone I did finish and can't wait to show you tomorrow is on the way! You'll love this next character and his angelic design! 🪽

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Galaxy Steve

Abilities: can fly, teleport, use lightning, create things... (It's difficult to explain everything he can do because he's very powerful and can do a lot of stuff, mostly related to the galaxy, time and space, and it's existence... I'm ending it here, thank you for reading! He's complicated.)

Personality: goofy, cheerful, hungry, friendly, clueless at times, troublesome, powerful to the point it's frightening, sometimes gullible, a loyal friend, easy to make him cry, simple-minded, and does things that make you wonder if his head is empty! But we love him all the same. 🥰

Can I have a moment of silence for this POOOOR 🎶 UNFORTUNATE 🎶 SOUUUUL!?🎶🐙

This unlucky fella got to see what it's like to be in the world of the living but not alive! Good ole Ghost Steve here was a little too curious, got lured in a trap where he met his demise with his soul lingering. This drawing depicts the moment he realized he's dead. But why did he not pass on like the others? You'll see in the comic! Or watch the OG series. 😎✨

I had fun drawing this one, but this time the hands did become frustrating. I just couldn't get them to look good AND the right size at the same time, it was either one or the other. I eventually got it in the right proportion and look good, I am satisfied with the results. Looking at it now I think his knees could have been bent a little more, he looks like he doesn't have any knee joints being stretched out like this. I don't mind too much, not the worst I've noticed. You can't really see it, but the colored pencil that is a lighter gray, used on his skin, eyes and hair, sparkles in the light. The pencil had silver colored lead but it's pointless since you can't even see it sparkle in this picture! 😮‍💨 You'll just have to take my word for it. As for the rest of the design, I didn't add any light in his eyes. He's dead after all. He still looks emotional and I think I successfully showed his shocked expression. My favorite part of this drawing would have to be his hands and face. The hands took a while to get right but they look really good and probably one of my best drawings of hands. I've never really drawn scared or horrified faces as much before and honestly, that also took some time to get right. Not as much as the hands, but a while. At least it wasn't a nightmare.

GLARES AT NIGHTMARE STEVE!!!

He of course had to keep his torn clothes, it tells a story, as well as his long messy hair, all of this showing his struggle in his last moments. I didn't need to make a new design as this one in the OG was enough, and for story purposes, needed. Perhaps someday I will give him renewed soul clothes, but for now he wears his tattered attire.

I hope you're excited for tomorrow because the next character's design is definitely out of this world! 🌌

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Ghost Steve

Abilities: can fly, phase through things, turn invisible, possess objects and people.

Personality: curious, cautious, caring, helpful, smart, and traumatized! (The poor fellow.)

[featherwingfox]

Rainbow Steve? No, it's Reverse Steve! He's evil but he wasn't so troublesome to draw, UNLIKE SOMEBODY! Glares at Nightmare

Alright, not my favorite drawing but I don't hate it. I love the sweater I gave him. I thought the design looked like it suited him and kept the 80's theme Rainbow had. Since this is like an evil version of him. Iffy about the boots, unsure of the pants. My family said the pants looked fine and match but I'm still not sure. I think they might look better if I make it pink! ✨🍭 (Pretend it's a fairy wand)

Surprisingly didn't have a problem drawing the hands. Okay I might have but I don't remember so it wasn't so bad. Turned out well. The pose was made to look like he was just created and becoming conscious. He's not exactly disinterested but he's figuring out what is happening. He will quickly find out how he wants to act and live, becoming the opposite of the Hero, Rainbow Steve. Hence why he was named Reverse Steve in the OG series among other things. I've tweaked his abilities to fit his name better.

Ah, I don't really have anything else to say about this one. Let me know if I should change his pants to pink or not, I would like your thoughts on this. If nobody says anything I'm going to see if pink looks better and choose myself if I should change or leave it alone for the final design in the comic. Even though I can't think of anything else to say I have a lot of plans for him and you'll see them in the rewrite. I hope y'all enjoy these and my process explanations!

There are many things people want to reverse, but you can't reverse your own demise.🪦 See you tomorrow with a haunting design!

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Reverse Steve

Abilities: can fly, summon lightning, fire, and reverse the movement of things.

Personality: mean, rude, heartless, and malicious.

The first real villain of the Steve Saga! Why was it that when I drew THIS dude of all characters that I have a difficult time? IT REALLY WAS A NIGHTMARE!!!! For the life of me, I couldn't figure out how to pose him! This was a terrible day for drawing, my art was not arting! WHY?!?! Why must these days happen at all?! Hang in there fellow artists that have a day like this one when your skills just aren't activated...

Anyway, I drew his face, I'm happy with it, I drew his hair, also happy with it. I got his darkness pattern, happy all around! But the rest of him was just not working, not happy about it, so I did the only thing an artist struggling could do. I covered it up. It was my only solution! 😭 Don't worry! You WILL see what he looks like without a kingly cape. I plan on making some digital art after these traditional drawings. These traditional drawings are to introduce what everyone looks like without shading or other details, just a general image of their appearances. The digital art gives me more control of the colors and I can adjust space to draw, so even if I, for some reason, have another nightmare of a time drawing him, I will eventually get him done right! He can't escape the MIGHT OF MY PEN forever!!! ✨🖋️✨

A little iffy about his cape design. It looks fine and all but I think I can do better. So now he has multiple capes! 🪄👑👑👑(There isn't a cape emoji, just pretend it is...) What kind of king would he be if he didn't have more than one? I'm sure whoever the tailor is can make enough robes that suit his high quality taste. It is also because I just want to draw a bunch of different designs for his capes. It would make sense if he had that many too. Now the real question is, does he have a new cape every day or a cape specifically made for different things? A cape for attacking people, a cape for sitting on the throne, a cape for looking over his malicious experiments, a cape for fighting in, eating, perhaps he even has a cape he sleeps in?

Despite my unfortunate day of drawing, I really like his face... (Never thought I'd say that about him 😑) I wanted his face to look sharp and his expression cold and intimidating. Look at him, how colder can you get? He doesn't care about anyone! Exactly how I wanted him to be. If anyone who hasn't seen the OG series and doesn't know how bad he is, one word: genocide.

I can't wait for the day I'm ready to post the comic, I plan on making him a worthy villain to fear! More feared then the next design I made. It wasn't a nightmare, but there was something I wanted to reverse. 🙃 See you tomorrow!

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)

Character: Nightmare Steve/King

Abilities: summon lava, lightning, can fly, has super speed, can give you nightmares (how fitting), darkness, and created his own dimension. It was named after him. (The Nightmare Dimension)

Personality: Menacing, cruel, evil, domineering, intimidating, and corrupt.

He has arrived! The cool vitiligo has also returned! I'm using that for most fusion designs, just so you know. I kind of had trouble figuring out how to combine the clothes. I was a little unsure if the leg warmers would look good with the pants and boots, but everyone I asked said I did a good job and it looks fine, so I trust them all and love how it turned out! As you can see here, I gave him long hair in a ponytail, and drew the back incase you needed to see it better. The hands I might have had trouble, as many artists do, hang in there friends, but I don't think it was too bad, this was a good art day for me. The pose is just- I love it! He's in the middle of flying during a battle! I tried to make the poses for Chaos Steve and Ultra Steve look like they were in the same scene. Now if this was digital I'd add their powers in action too but these are just introductions of what everyone looks like. You'll see all the cool art in the future comic. I apologize in advance, as this will be taking a long time. Once again, be extremely patient please, and thank you for even checking out my designs in the first place! I enjoy doing this! I think my favorite part about this drawing is the cowlicks. That's the pieces of hair that stick out at the top. I gave both Light's and Rainbow's together. I love this because it's cute and adore these two! The brotherly dynamic was sweet and I wish we could've seen more in the OG, lucky for all of us, I HAVE THE POWER! 🪄

Ultra still has that soft gentleness about him but now an added determination and confidence. As far as I've observed from the OG series, Ultra Steve is pretty much what Light Steve would be if he was more sure of himself and used to his capabilities. He drank the first half of the potion so he is Light Steve with Rainbow Steve's powers and the only one in control, since it's just the powers fused. Unlike Dark Steve, Light Steve was not overwhelmed with the urge to destroy everything because of the new strength in these powers, but had a clearer conscience and control. Eventually it did slightly get to him, just not in the same way as Dark, you can find out in the comic or go watch the OG series. Infact, for those of you who did not watch it but found yourself here and interested, if you don't want to wait what will probably be a year or more (😭👍) for the rewrite, you can watch the original Steve Saga while you wait! And then when I'm ready to post the comic, you can see the differences along the way! It is also fine if you don't want spoilers and want to wait for me. I'm having fun designing the characters and rewriting the story, so thank you for your patience and see you in the next post tomorrow!

One thing for sure, this next design I made was a nightmare...👑 The king of nightmares.

Story: Steve Saga (Fan Rewrite)
