What do you think of Chase’s original design from the games :0
First of all thank you for the ask, appreciate it!
Well I think its alright but it's not as interesting as chase's current design ofc, they rlly up his design by 1000× which is the reason why I simp him a lot. It's probably the work of the stuble and sharp af jawnlines siejdbd. I rlly like the turtle neck he has tho. Also another fact is that I rlly dig the artstyle of the current version then the one in the game more but that's just my opinion ig.
P.S. I do not vibe with the haircut of the og haha
Character design concepts for my Carmen Sandiego timeskip au!! I imagine it takes place about 3 years after the final scene of the show (which seems to be a 2 year timeskip, making it 5 years altogether); It follows the characters slowly coming together as V.I.L.E’s faculty properly break out of prison and are hellbent on revenge and rebuilding their criminal empire.
I have explanations for what each character is doing under the cut!
Carmen and Player:
After spending several years reconnecting with her mother and helping out at the orphanage, she heard whispers of V.I.L.E returning and decided it was once again time to throw on the red coat and get back into action. She takes a less active role this time round, as she knows that there are other people on the case, but she still shows up to kick ass when necessary. Mostly she’s just there for fun
This time, however, her good friend Mr. Bouchard had just graduated from university, and decided to join her on an “apprenticeship” so they could travel the world together. They’re basically crime fighting best friends/siblings who stop heists occasionally and then spend most of the time doing really dumb shit together
Zack, Chase, and Julia:
You know those movies where a character stumbles into great fortune and success by complete accident? Yeah that’s EXACTLY what happened to Zack. After a couple years of working for ACME he decided to leave and finally pursue his dreams of being a race car driver; not only did he make it to the top of his field, but through a series of unpredictable events he also became a wildly famous model, a respected food critic, and AN ACTUAL DUKE. Nothing about his personality changed, he’s still a goofy Bostonian himbo, just living his best life in Italy where all of this happened.
Unfortunately for Zack, with great fame comes a couple of haters, notably ex-V.I.L.E operative Dash Haber who was plotting his downfall from the shadows. Chase was assigned to investigate, and then Chief realised how much chaos Zack and Devineaux would cause if they were in a room together, so she assigned Julia as well so someone among them would have a brain cell
Ivy, Sonia, Xifeng, and The Troll
When Zack left ACME to go pursue his dreams, Ivy initially stayed behind because she liked her job, but eventually started questioning what she wanted to do with her life. That is, until, one night when she ran into Sonia, who had followed in Carmen’s footsteps and was now acting as the new “femme rouge”. Ivy found purpose in the work she did for Carmen, so she decided to assist Sonia in her work by providing her with tools and a getaway driver, just like the good ol’ days.
While on their travels they ran into Xifeng, who joined the two of them on their travels, since she wanted to see the world (and also had a bit of a crush on Sonia oop). They also ran into ex-V.I.L.E operative The Troll, who they were initially going to turn in to the authorities, until Sonia remembered that Carmen had a hacker on her team who made their capers run a lot more smoothly. So they basically blackmailed him into going with them. While Ivy was naturally suspicious of him at first, he actually warmed up to the group eventually, since he was still committing cyber crime and making money, he had no reason to betray them.
With the new Team Red assembled they basically did the same stuff the old Team Red did, although Sonia’s strategy and the group’s general chemistry made their capers go WILDLY different to how Carmen’s used to. Sonia is much more mischievous and playful than Carmen used to be, and she isn’t as hesitant about fighting dirty. Xifeng is the only chill one on the team and The Troll is still a bit of a jerk, and Ivy is frequently driven up the wall by their antics. I can genuinely imagine her yelling at them after their goofing around got them into trouble and calling them “unruly pranksters” and feeling Shadowsan’s spirit physically channeling through her
Shadowsan
Taking a well deserved nap and being bullied by his brother. Do not disturb him
Not looking so great now..
Story: Chase is capturing the remaining of the vile operatives as things did not go as plan. Events taking place after Season 4
Team Red stayed together. Maybe not necessarily as a team, but as a family. They all kept in touch for the rest of their lives. And Carmen reconnected with Julia, Chase, and Graham too and stayed in contact. You cannot tell me otherwise <3
Chase Devineaux Special Pose from Season 2.
I didn’t think any of my drawings would get to see the light of day, but this one appeared in a behind-the-scenes video located here. I really liked this drawing, so I’m happy! :D Very cool video too, be sure to check it out for some rough animation!
