just a small lil project so i had a 99% solid idea of what they look like in my head whenever i wanna make fanart... explanations/headcanons/design notes under the cut if anyone cars
parrot
in my head parrot would be a severe macaw but im really not a bird person so like what do i know
he cant fly 'naturally', the metal extensions on his wings act as his elytra which is more like a mobility aid. without it he can glide for short and i mean SHORT distances and cannot take flight by himself, hes basically too structurally weak to do it. dont look too hard at the aids tho idk if they work physically ok OK.
raccoon purple-dyed streak of hair and also a purple bandanna for wifies. of course. i imagine he got rid of both after paragon because of bitter memories but kept maybe a slightly thicker thread of the fabric to weave into a lil braid.
PONYTAIL UGHHH YESSS I LOVE GIVING THEM PONYTAILS ! its more like a half-up half-down situation tho . the hairtie is ironically purple
outfit is really adventure-y. hes not over the top at all with his oufit and throws on whatever rags he may find. i imagine he kept the scarf/shawl all throughout s1/s2 though
head wings and tail dont really serve any purpose other than showing his emotions sometimes. tho the tail DOES make him more well-balanced when theyre flying with their elytras if that makes sense
spoke
pure voidling though from a subspecies thats from the outer end islands and when i say outer i mean like over 500k blocks
this is more of a general outfit for him that i think hed have in s1
a lot of the design choices i made for him were based off my decisions for his adjacent lifesteal design. ie i gave him horns and a tail so that his lifesteal version would have pigtails/ears (i havent decided lmao) and wings. and he has more of a tech-shirt (i forgot the actual style name) so that his lifesteal ver can have a hoodie
white streaks just cuz ive always wanted him to have white streaks
I CANT BELIEVE I FUCKING FORGOT THIS BUT IN A LOT OF OTHER ART I MADE OF UU SPOKE HE HAS A LIGHTNING BOLT SHAPED AHOGE. FUCK MY LIFE IM A CHUD IM A CHUD IM A FAT LITTLE CHUD
a lot of rainbow stuff .
the pixels on his shorts are meant to be like. pixels . like the exploit arc . ok yea sorry im an idiot
he has a red star shaped earring for mapicc (i imagine in s2 he dyes a white streak red instead, cuz he either loses the earring or thinks its too dangerous to wear. could get yanked u know)
scars :^) but they heal lighter than his skin and he gets mad about that especially in later seasons when theyre getting in fights all the time
bonus: i imagine when mapicc is fighting him in the maze he breaks off one of his horns . i headcanon that voidling horns grow back but very slowly so until it does its a sad reminder of their broken friendship but its also an allegory for them making amends :3 did i use that word right i think i did
flame
blazeborn and tiger heritage but the split is 60/40
i fear not biologically related to mane for this reason (mane would be 60/40 human and lion heritage) but they definitely grow up as brothers and people dont question the dna
because of the unstable dna (see what i did there) his blazeborn abilities are a bit finicky, causing the fire powers to only work on his left hand
when emotions r running high he cant/struggles to control the flames
also more of a casual outfit that i think hed have in s1 if we saw his pov . the hoodie is cut short and he has a skintight suit under it tho. just for ease of movement
tiger dna gives him heightened senses which is how he can 'see' despite having a blindfold
always loves to be blinged out, the gold in his dreads is the beginning of this (i imagine he gets earrings and stuff in later seasons)
tallest in the quartet thanks to his genes
lowkey mad he didnt get the demon tail from the blazeborn genes. the tiger tail is quote "too expressive"
wemmbu
(ender) dragon and voidling but its more like a 70/30 split. hes also a different subspecies of voidling to spoke so they never ran into eachother as kids. <500k blocks to the end island
voidling genes gave him the horns/tail/pointed ears. dragon genes gave him the eyes, skin, wings, but 'amplified' the horns from the voidling gene which is why theyre so much bigger than spokes. also the voidling subspecies is why his tail is longer and thinner
like parrot he cant fly with his wings but he CAN glide and can probably take off if hes desperate enough and has loads of adrenaline
^ he uses a normal elytra like everyone else to fly tho
in pze arc zam had them all in 'uniforms' which he said he didnt like but enjoyed the 'royal' look, which transferred into his main outfit
SHOULD be super scarred but he isnt because of the extra tough dragon-gene-aided skin. so if u see a scar on wemmbu well damn that hit hard
long ass hair idc im a sheep im giving him long hair its so fun
not present in this art but i imagine when hes in the invis knight arc his fingertips/skin in general is more blue in hue from the constant invisibility pots
flared pants and high heels . boy you so fancy
i fear i didnt add any nods to egg on his design but if i did id make the star on his chest into a blue jewel
well well well if it isnt kit with the once every 67th moon post. today i bring you a small animatic of me and my friends scarian inspired ocs, sun(flower)dune and poppychuckle! you can always count on me to merge my fav fandoms with waca... anyway the cws are at the beginning, song is too little too late by laufer :^) this was mostly an animation/tween/lipsync test so its a bit offtime and rough around the edges
tldr im still unhinged as shit. just look at my gay kitties
everstar, who likes leading but has the āmiserable immortalā mentality (they hate having 9 lives and think itās a curse, if someone cares enough to ask Iāll explain lore)
People still tend to lump JK Rowling in with the category of ~problematic artists~ and I need everyone to understand that is not the problem with her. She is not comparable to anyone who wrote a piece of fiction you hate, or someone who made rude comments in 2015 and has since learned better.
She is far more like Elon Musk. She is a radicalized person with an extreme amount of social and financial power, and for YEARS she has been using that power to try to influence her government into hurting vulnerable people, on purpose. And she has succeeded. THAT is the problem with her, and THAT is why spending money on her books is so dangerous, not because her books aged badly.
Critiquing her work is fine, of course (I personally was never a fan so I really donāt care) but you NEED to understand that fiction is not the main issue here. And I truly think acting like sheās the same as the rest of any giant list of ~problematic creators of the week~ waters down how dangerous she is.
dude, what the hell? this is such an awful take? have you stopped to consider the repercussions if this happened in real life? its completely unrealistic and literally baffling that youre putting hatespeech like that out into the world, no less tumblr, the site where no one gives a shit what you post. dont interact with me ever again
What if Red Hood had taken the cowl instead of Nightwing?
Crazy, I know. Unspeakable. Completely out of character. But Iām just a girl (I was rewatching Bing Bang Theory and Stuart and Sheldon were arguing about who should be taking the cowl when Bruce was presumed dead in the Black Mirror run iirc⦠correct me if Iām wrong)
I was just thinking what could lead up to that. I havenāt read that run but I roughly know the events, which is also how people got the dad Dick and son Damien dynamic; now imagine that but JASON!
Would he have done it as a way to prove to himself he could have been a better Batman than Bruce was? Would he start killing people like the Joker first for revenge and then finally realize Bruceās point of view with the no kill rule? Would he have stepped up to protect Damien, because he lost his dad and Jason knows what itās like to have your father āleaveā you, even if the situation is different? Would Dick even let him take the cowl?
(I know he was Batman in some other universes and even the Crisis series but⦠THINK ABOUT IT)
Becoming Batman would also mean he mightāve become the new center of Batfam which might make for interesting dynamics. Like I said, I havenāt read these runs, so I donāt know if this has happened already.
Just seemed interesting. Also, for those wondering, Stuart backed up Jason and Sheldon backed up Dick. As the number one Nightwing fan, Iām also with Dick as the one taking the cowl, not that I think he should be taking it permanently. The next Batman is a whole other discussion (CASS. BUT IF U WANT A GUY THEN TIM. I can elaborate if you ask)
elaboration under cut :3
okay hello
The next Batman in my most honest opinion should be either Cassandra Cain or Tim Drake. Iāve always thought of cass and Bruce to be very similar, in the sense that they think and act in similar ways, aside from cass crashing out a lil every so often. Sheās the perfect candidate and embodiment of justice, like Bruce, but in her own cass way. I still love her as batgirl though
As for Timā¦ā¦ we all know heās been fucking 17 for like a bazillion years at this point and he is STILL Red Robin. Guysā¦. Pleaseā¦..
Tim wasnāt offered the mantle but he TOOK it after Jasonās death. Heās an amazing detective, ambitious, zealous, and confident enough to be bossing around THE dark knight when heās 14. Nice vro
All Iām saying is they need to do something with this guy. NOT to say I think he should become Batman BECAUSE they havenāt done anything, he just has good traits and would make for good potential storylines and dynamics within batfam. Hell, Iād even like if they introduced a completely new character as the next robin if this happened.
Also, Iāve seen some people mention that theyāre tired of Batman plots where heās chasing down new villains and doing multiverse shit, and instead would rather see plot lines where we see more of his detective side and the actual problem solving that goes into finding these guys. That would definitely fit for Tim, I think.
Anyway, if this is bad reasoning then so be it. But I honestly donāt see any other person in batfam taking up the mantle if Bruce ACTUALLY dies or retires. Plus, it would be a crazy plot twist if the reason theyāve pushed Tim aside is to wait for Damien to become a doctor, then have something happen to Bruce, and make Tim Batman. I would cheer and gloat forever
nightwing / dick grayson is this specific species of birds-of-paradise (paradisornis rudolphi) and some scientists have found that the blue bit glows
this is what they look like normally LOL
red robin / tim drake is a crimson backed tanager
red hood / jason todd is a pine grosbeak (specifically the red type, these are pretty rare and are endangered. heh. there are also yellow ones)
damien wayne is an american redstart warbler. just look at it
tumblr has taught me about another robin in a different universe named duke thomas and i think this is him because his suit is bright yellow afterh e stops being robin
barbara gordon is a purple starling. i think they are funny looking
cassandra cain is SPECIFICALLY a northwestern crow (because they have a purple tint)
alfred is a turbit pigeon
bruce wayne is a great-tailed grackle because it reminds me of his cape
honorable mention: red winged blackbird. such cool colors but i couldnt find any member that gave these vibes
