POKEMON RAAAAAAAAH

Im just a little guy

[sunshineartmon]

It’s here! I’ve been away for a while, and I’m coming back with my new miraculous project, a redesign series, starting with Marinette. I’ll explain more about the designs below. For a more simple art style explanation, I’m going at this with the idea of it being an older 2D show and style. For now, enjoy this mockup screenshot!

To preface this, I have to admit that my favorite redesigns/rewrite was from @teawinx, and even though they are done with miraculous, their designs literally never left my head and have influenced these designs a bit. Going more into my designs, I tried to give seasons 1-3 more of an innocent, pre-trauma look. I also tried to divide “Marinette” and “Ladybug” into two different identities. Marinette is trying to convince herself that she isn’t Ladybug, that’s just a part she plays, not who she is. To reflect this, the main pattern on her is stripes, and though she has spots, they’re hidden beneath the stripes. I changed her hair to be my favorite style, space buns, though to pay homage to a classic magical girl, I tried to give them a Sailor Moon flair.

For season 4, I wanted to give her a more mature look. She’s been forced to grow up, and she’s using her fashion to reflect that. I kept the stripes for her comfort sweater, but now there’s a bigger pattern on her, the flowers. She’s wearing those in reference to Fu, and how she is the new guardian now. It also looks like polka dots, which references ladybug. Her hair is tied down to give her more control, and to help her feel more adult.

Season 5 is when she starts to be sure of herself. In season 4 I toned down her colors, so now we see some brighter shades come out. She’s also ditched the stripes entirely, now being confident in being Ladybug. She’s still wearing the guardian shirt and has her hair tied down, because she’s still older and more mature, and while she’s moving on and embracing herself more, she can’t go back to how she was at the start.

For Ladybug’s look, I really just added more of a tactical look. I imagine that she would have the classic ladybug bodysuit in origins, and after gaining the confidence to announce herself as Ladybug, she changes her look to be this. I tried to be intentional with the spots, pretty much anywhere where there’s a group of spots, it’s either 4 or 5. I also changed her hair color to help hide her identity a little more

Finally, Multimouse. Here, I’m keeping the same reasoning for the fit. She wants to keep Chat Noir from finding her identity, so I wanted the most Marinette flavored look possible. I kept the hairstyle pretty much the same as her season 1-3 look, but made it even more Sailor Moon styled. For the suit I wanted something more loose fitted, to represent Marinette’s clumsiness. I also wanted more skin showing, because she isn’t trying to hide who she is.

Ok that’s the first redesign done! Let me know who I should do next! I’m gonna try and release these at least once a week!

Get to know me better!

@goatlilly tagged me in this like a month ago and I’ve been really off of tumblr I’m sorrryyyyy 😭, but “better late than never” seems to be my blog’s brand at this point soooo

Reading: I believe the last thing I read was a manga called Shadows House that my coworker’s been lending me each week. He’s given me like 3 copies to read each week since we only see each other once a week, so it feels kind of like a weekly episode!

Last series watched: The last show I watched (that wasn’t a clip from TikTok) was You and I are Polar Opposites. It’s a really cute show that uses a lot of gen z talk and I love it.

Last Film: I’d love to say the new Pixar film Hoppers, or like a fun horror flick like Ready or Not 2, but the last thing I watched was Thunderbolts. I’m not really a marvel guy, so it really wasn’t my cup of tea.

Last Song: House Tour from Sabrina Carpenter. I’m such a pop girlie, and I love my pop bops

Sweet or Salty: I actually work at a chocolate shop, so I very much like my sweets

Coffee or Tea: I’m not really big on either, I’m boring and like my plain water, but if I had to choose one, probably tea

Working on: Soooooo many things, I’ve been busy with school art (I recently got in an art show :]), as well as personal projects, pokemon style art, and most recently, I’ve started a Miraculous redesign project that we’ll see if it goes anywhere

I’m not sure who to tag, so give me your answers in the comments if you’re inclined! I gotta get better at keeping up with this site

I don’t think I’ve properly expressed just how in love I am with @nionom-art’s Coccinella AU so I wanted to thank them with their oc (and future akuma victim), Zia! I’ve been loving the comic, and looking forward to each new installment! If you haven’t checked it out, I highly recommend it!

[nionom-art]

Soooo… I’m sure you guys are going to be very not surprised at all by this… but I have another Marinette design to share (I promise I’ll work on some other characters next after this).

So here’s Rooster!Marinette :3

I made a miraculous AU, and Marinette is having an awful time.

In this universe, somehow Marinette begins interning under Gabriel, and in turn becomes the Peacock holder. She was tricked into doing it the first time, and after that stay through a combination of guilt, blackmail, and not wanting to abandon Nooroo and Duusu.

[Text reads:

Peacock! Marinette

Codename: Plumette

Alt universe where Mari never became Ladybug. becomes Gabe's assistant

• In a glorious show of ethics violations, he gives Marinette the Peacock miraculous

• Marinette never got the confidence to say no, and is trauma bonded to Nooroo and Duusu

• One joy is that her outfit Is better than Gabe

end text] Her sentimonsters are the same three that she cycles between, based off of fear, guilt, and obedience. She has one more for anger that I have no drawn yet Enjoy!

Every time a new pokemon game releases, I like to make a character for it! So here’s looking forward to Legends Z-A

[nionom-art]

Horse!Marinette design update! Her name is Miss Mara

I did a design for her a few years ago, so I thought I’d update it. The original can be found here

This au centers around my own personal rewrite of miraculous main characters themes and the power systems

I was heavily inspired by the sisters au and especially coccinella! Inspired me to make my own au!
