Widowmakers mission: Take down that pesky mech-driving streamer DVA.
Status of mission: Total Failure!
That jerk speedfreak Tracer showed up and ran it into the ground.
And together, the heroes seemed to have a biiiit too much fun bundling up the assassin…

Voted to be drawn by my subscribers in a poll I called “Balltied brats” :)
I haven’t drawn that many overwatch pics before, so this was pretty fun!
I read up a bit on their backstories, and I got to study their outfits a bunch. The look quite straight forward and simple, but there are a LOT of details and stuff (Widowmaker has little spikes or something on her boots? Huh!). Very interesting!
I’d initially intended for her to be more balltied than this, but as I was googling balltie pics for inspiration, I came across one from centaurcelluloid.com, that had this kind of half ball thing that I really liked. Widowmakers design is so much about emphasizing her long shiny legs and her sleekness, so it seemed a shame to scrunch her up too much. So I ended up using that pic as a reference.
I always find it hard to do tight gags when I do fanart, because I get so concerned about having a face that looks “accurate” to the character.
So when I first sketched it out, I just gave her a cleave gag. And I thought it looked cute, but also a bit tame maybe.
So on my substar I also did versions with a bit more tape. And then 2 more with a lot more tape :D
This pic was posted to my subscribestar (subscribestar.com/elijahpink) back in June ‘22. There’s wips, fullsize and tape gags there!
