same anon who said i adored your unique OC designs!!
i have a question, how did you come to create many of these characters? were they inspired from anything? is there a certain theming??
i want to know about damon (i think is his name) he is very charming..;;
WOW! My first OC ask ?! What a honor!!!!
A difficult question already... AH but not impossible to answer!!! I was inspired by fragments of many things (in fact! You can read each character's individual inspo inside their respective pages, should be in the fun fact section) yet none that are the main inspiration for RSD (Red Spinach Delirium) I suppose?
However, I can share a bit about myself! Younger me used to make new character designs on a frequent basis for the love of the game...
One day, I told myself "Oh how about I build a story!?!?" The base is that it HAVE to fit into my art style to avoid any difficulties with drawing, a thought came by "Well... I really like dreamy things..." Then the rest is pretty much history (you can check RSD's development over the years in -> here!)
It was quite unserious! I was just messing around, racking my brain for any good ideas,, But because I was without a care in the world, it was also a freeing time for me! I had become very passionate for this project with the help of my friends' motivating words! Without anyone to ramble to... I really wonder if I would've made any progress
As of recent changes, the story have evolved to revolve around the perception of Memories & Remembrance as the very reason why everyone look the way they are! (Explanation of how memories work -> here!)
(Sudden character design talk! I remind myself to go for something that should be easy to animate, avoiding any kind of small intricate parts while putting more Focus on 1) Shape of the Silhouette and 2) Inner unique Shapes)
Looking back to one of my favorite anime- Kaiba (2008), it had been a a big inspiration for me on how I should approach certain things with this OC World!
The story I'm making will have an in-depth exploration of guilt, grief, death, and the relationships between people as it's prominent themes (with each characters having their own perspective and unique stories to dwell into!) It's a lot to think about... But it's fun too! I do love character studies
(I'm also very glad that you are charmed by Doman...!! If you have read through his notion page, I'm not quite sure what else to say unless you ask specifically... However I do... Have... This..............................)
