My name is Hygrif and I go by ANY AND ALL PRONOUNS 💥💥💥💥💥
See my other socials at my strawpage!
My current interests are JJBA, HOTD (no, not the dragon or the highschool! It's the SEGA arcade game The House of the Dead!!!!), Mad Father, Ib, Geometry Dash, and SO MUCH MOOOREEE!!!!
⚠️ Please be cautious that I post eyestrain and gory artworks sometimes!
Also I block rather sparingly for whatever reason :P
Hi hello, I'm the anon that asked about your designs, I just wanted to ask if you could provide examples of how you do/would draw the GW cast? The way you described them is so interesting that I need to see! I've just been nervous to ask lol
OH RIGHT I FORGOT ABOUT THAT oops
For team Bucci, you can see it here on my instagram post!
Again, I just take a look at their look/name/personality/etc and see how I can "bizarre-ify" them, it's not just GW that I draw them like that, but most of the bizarreified are GW because they have food names, and I even recycle them sometimes for other part of the series.
I have made a bizarreified La Squadra before, it's in my sketchbook somewhere but I dunno where but for the most part I just go with their name... iiit's prolly Lost Medias if I can't find it anwwhere...
While we're waiting for the reworked Alfred Drevis, I hope they don't fumble the biggest opportunity by making his intro taken from this
And I hope that's not the case because from what we've seen from his chase theme teaser it's clear that it's based off Tension, the song that plays when there's QTE and being chased by Alfred himself in the original Mad Father as well as his appearances in various Roblox games (I can only think of Midnight Horrors and Horror Mansion though)
It seems pretty obvious that Mister Balls himself cares about this particular skin despite how it was rarely used by players these days (not me though). I really like the direction with this remake by making it a homage to both his original and Roblox version; the artist for his face intentionally downscaled it for a bit but it still looks really fresh and gives it a crunchy texture, the composer intentionally made his song muffled to reflect the early 2010's stuff (Tension already sounds a bit muffled lol, that too)
I also noticed how his eyeglasses seems more polygonal than his downscaled quality face, do you think it can tilt when he gets stunned and he'll look pathetic like this?
And lastly, I hope in his custom outro he turned the survivors (or even your avatar!) into a doll, much like the doll ending in Mad Father, that would be sick.
THAT'S RIGHT BABY! IT'S REVAMPLED JOHN MAD FATHER IN FORSAKEN, AND IT IS ONE OF IF NOT *THE* BEST GLOWUP EVER!!!
It does have some flaws however! Most notably the hidden pair of broken glasses meant for his raging pace animation, hit the "Keep reading" button for more.
Another problem here is that despite the render being all bloody, ingame however it's clean (but not really squeaky clean, his labcoat is quite dirty in fact)
Lastly, while it's a really cool addition that he has expressive facial expression, there's this odd visual bug where all of the faces appear at the same time which is funny.
OKAY enough with all these nitpicks, what's so good about the revamp anyway?
HE'S GOT CHASE THEME AND CUSTOM ANIMATIONS AAAAND IS THE FIRST SLASHER SKIN TO BE EXPRESSIVE!!!!
I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO MUCH MORE GRATEFUL THAN THIS THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON THIS HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
The most notable part of this revamp is that he only wields his chainsaw now!*
*in Guest1337 kill and intro/outro he has his knife from the old version tho, I really hope they'll give him custom intro/outro because it's so janky rn.
Also funny thing about the anims is that during Raging Pace move he breaks his glasses and when it stops it he just puts another pair of glasses, which I think explains why he has two pair of glasses.
ALSO I LOVE THIS DETAIL!!!! THE ACCURSED NECROBLOXICON HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A DOLL AND KNIVES! This is a callback to the fact that he's a dollmaker and in the true ending he got stabbed with several knives (in the 2020 remake, scalpels)
ALSO TAKE THAT PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T BOUGHT HIM WHEN HE WAS ONLY 800 PLAYER POINTS HE'S NOW A WHOPPING 2500 NOW HAHA
What if I make a "legally distinct" version of my existing OC for this newly discovered roleplay community.... i think RP-ing as evil scientist would be fun
I should start a little doodle series of cats that killed chapter 4 boss
Part 1: Meat Guy
Despite his name, I made him a tinkerer because of his druid passive, Teamwork, thinking that this guy could summon a familiar until he finally got Bombchu somewhere in the caves, the combo is pretty crazy since familiar killing itself counts, so my whole gang gets super strong! Though I should've spam the Bombchu even more during Spinerette fight, but thankfully none of my party member dies... Until I sacrificed my tank with Guillotina's face to the Throbbing Domain.
I thought my party is absolutely cooked, they are barely at the lifeline except for my underutilized necromancer (they can resurrect bodies however, even if it's not permanent it's still good!). For the record, in this party I brought fighter, tinkerer, necromancer, and tank.
Thankfully chapter 4 maps are so short so the team aren't as wrecked as I thought, there's even a newcoming collarless accompanying us! Throbbing King fight is pretty darn tedious at the start until I realized I can keep spamming Bombchus to beef up my team. Meat Guy hits the last blow, it took me about 14 rounds! Oh uhh right the clot erm gimme a sec I'll hit that one AAAND THAT'S DONE!! WOW! That's my first ever attempt at beating the king! GG
The Goofy Ass Villain Scheming up a Sinister Plan to Destroy The Hero
I'm starting*I'm actually obsessed w/ her for a while, and this piece was finished months ago but I forgot to post it here, oopsie daisy! to get very fond of this devilishly deranged Dr. Finkelfracken! She's very fun to draw albeit I occasionally missed out some of her details soooo I decided to make an OFFICIAL ref sheet for her!
Background is a nod to Ashley Wave Trial, a very difficult level in Geometry Dash that has Dr Finkelfracken's Cure by Bossfight as the level's theme
As I was drawing this I started to think: Damn, what is GG's direction anyway? this was supposed to set place in 2017, why would there be a gal based off a level from 2020's and a character from the 2020's game? (being Syringeon from Garten of Banban). (Wow. almost like Nate is based off a boss in a 2020 level lmao but he's supposed to be the only exception)
Then I just, honestly I don't think GG actually has any sorta direction whatsoever, for now that is. I haven't even made a proper story or arcs or anything until this year! <(@_@ )> But hey, we gotta take sum baby steps here... I'm an artist, not a writer (yet, that is).
Y'know what I think GG can reference modern GD levels despite the time period, though it'll be nicer if I take an effort to take a look at pre-2018 levels so I don't look like a posseur. (TRUST ME IM A GD PLAYER SINCE 2016 I'M JUST NOT THAT ACTIVE TO IMPROVE MY SKILL JUST YET)
Did you know that I made a character named after this particular Bossfight track before? It was supposed to be a lab rat but I'm not proud of it, and the original drawing is gone.... Think of this Dr.F as the reincarnation! Heheh.
The goatee runs in her family.

"Handgun-caterpillar shaped stand, manifested from Rukkus' gluttonous tendencies, repressed anger, and desire for better childhood.
It has an unusual ammunition: Food, depending on the ingredients of the food, it can affect the impact and the effects of its explosive bubble bullets.
Rukkus' stomach connects to R!R!, he can also eat faster by feeding it"
If I recall correctly, R!R! is my second or third time (the first being Bangarang's 'Thumper') I ever tried designing a stand, coming from my desire to eat the crunchy crumbs left on fried foods but getting away with it easily by having a little tardigrade shaped stand that skitters on it. Then I decided it'll be funny if it poops money, but then I think "this is too stupid" so I make it shit bombs instead.
R!R! had the most renames out of the gang; it started from 'The Poopshitter' then 'Blast Processing', a very fitting name but there's too much Waterflame ref on the team (Thumper and Electroman Adventures), so I settled on 'Reload! Reload!', a very out of place to have a jazz-math rock music in a Geometry Dash EDM themed team but I added it just because I wanted to add a pinch of homage to The House of the Dead games, which is where SLGD band got their name from.
Designing Rukkus, the user, comes second after I made R!R!, early on he used to have some influence from Abbacchio, I even intended his colours to be purple but decided that lime-orange is nicer.
Also gross alert but this stand can leave flammable diarrhea trail if Rukkus also suffers from diarrhea, making a cheaper fuel to burn down a building! I really mean it when food affects the projectile.
I'm so so so so curious why you draw characters like Giorno and Johnny like that! I think it's super interesting and I'd really like to know if you don't mind me asking! :)
It was all started with those wacky edits of Giorno's facial features being replaced with his hair donuts, then a vision appeared to me as I was at a rather experimental time with my artstyle, I thought something a bit funny: What if I do something similar to the rest of the bucci gang? So I think of something that makes me think of the members of the gang (and eventually many other main cast of JJBA)
I will explain my whole thought process for each of the JJBA characters that I depict as bizarre creatures here in this post👇👇
P5: TEAM BUCCIARATI
Giorno: His donut hairs always seems empty to me, it looks like an empty eyesockets then et voila! Extra 3 eyes, I also give him flower petals for his hair because of a dream I had where I saw a sentient walking flower in a pot resembling Giorno (with his facial features replaced with his donut hairs).
Bucciarati: His haircut and those weird hair clippy thingies makes me think of a bug, and he always have that "bug" vibes to me so now he's a weird beetle, glad he has bug features because early on I was just gonna give him some zipper mouth which has some... implications.
Abbacchio: He gives off a grumpy bird vibe, combine that with that thing on his head, it looks like he was hatched from an eggshell and he just keep it as he grows up for some reason. I keep this eggshell idea to other characters: Atroe (later F.F.), Jodio, and Rohan.
Mista: Oh Mista you poor, poor thing, I make him rectangular (4 sides) and have 4 stuffs on his body: 4 front teeth, 4 eyelashes each, 4 squares on his abs, 4 fingers, etc. etc. His whole existence is a misery.
Narancia: He's an odd case to me, I just kinda make things up for him by giving him asymmetrical and make him really messy and unhinged looking solely because "haha he can't math"... Oh and don't forget the orange stem from his namesake! + His eyes are Like That because in this universe, the eye infection left a permanent damage.
Fugo: This one's a really funny design choice, I thought: What if those big 3 strands are teeth instead? His whole face is a gaping maw, I think it's also fitting with how easily he snaps. If I recall correctly, Miss Covet Hiss from Patapon subconsciously took an influence to this design too! I haven't even play that game at all, just fascinated with it for a bit.
Trish: She has a swirly hair... swirl... like hurricane.... eye of hurricane..... EUREKA!!
AHHHH MY WRIST HURTS FROM TYPING ALL OF THIS!!!! I hope this explanation will give you a gist on how I make these bizarre designs! I take a look at their name, appearance, vibes, etc. and exaggerate those features. In some cases I draw them as animal, in other times they're just really weird lookin guys...
If you've made it this far and want me to make an actual full explanation to ALL JJBA DESIGNS THAT I'VE MADE THUS FAR let me know in the comments!
