Decided to draw some TOA characters (and Remy) in different styles. IMO, the Homestuck style is looking a little Haunted. Ha ha. (Also, I'm aware Claire doesn't have her jacket. I didn't wanna mess it up.)
Edit: Inspired by old art.
I do ponder what dreamer type, symbols, and classpects the TOA Cast would have in the Homestuck verse. All I know is, if we went with power type alone, Jim would be a Knight of Light. A... Nightlight, if you will. Heh. (I thought it was a lil amusing. Though, it could be that I'm just tired.)
... I just noticed I put the ~ on the wrong letter in Claires name. Woops. Ha ha. ^^;
[Bat skulls bellow. Drawn same day.]
Fruit bat skull, sans bottom jaw, from memory. The creature one looks kinda goofy front view. Had to go by guesstimation, as I don't recall finding good front views before. Next time, I'll do another search. (Need to use refs more anyway.)
Roommate let me borrow his iPad so I could do digital art again. Been messing around with Clip Studio Paint. Man… I really miss sketching digitally. Still prefer a desktop (and owning the thing), but I’m still ecstatic to be working on a tablet again.
Here’s a sketch I’m proud of:
I’m accepting Critique on the outfit. (I have traditional sketches that I’ll try to post here soon. Most of those are on Bluesky.)
(Edit: March 11, 2025)
Traditional One / Two / Three / Bonus
Remy is nonbinary and about 14-15 years old. They’re also, unknowingly, not human. (Nor initially from that dimension.) Also, this outfit is inspired by the medieval era. They are not from, nor living, in the past.
Currently using them for possible Trollhunters/Tales of Arcadia story. (I have about… 10+ other oc’s connected to Wizards. … Didn’t realize I had that many. Plus some concepts for some homes, apartments, and living quarters. Might post those some day.)
Concepts of an alternate Douxie who happens to be the Trollhunter. (I don't think I'll finish these WIPs)
[Note: Nothing is final right now and subject to change.]
Basic gist is that Merlin foresaw this, thus pushing Douxie to train in more than just magic. Therefore, by the time Douxie is chosen, he is more skilled in combat, plus is very knowledgeable regarding the amulet's capabilities and history.
Prior to becoming the Trollhunter, he is in a heavy metal band. One member, a bassist, is a young woman named Thalia Dorman*. (I have yet to name these members). He might not stick with them due to his new duties and the ingrained belief he needs to work alone. (Thanks, Merlin)
I'm thinking he might work part-time at a warehouse instead of at Mr. Benoit café, but he is still friends with the staff there.
There will be a few other differences to indicate how he lived those 900 years a bit differently, compared to the Douxie we know. I just... need to figure those out.
Also, he has long hair up until he gets a head injury and then, later on, burns after the fight with Bellroc.
* Thalia is a wizard who looks around 23 years old. Ice magic is more her style, and the colour of her magic might be Magenta. (Still very in the works) Her name may very well be changed once I've figured out her ethnicity.
[Drawn March 30, 2025]
(The T-Pose I drew over the model. Helped a bit to understand his height. Not sure how to feel about it, though... morally speaking...)
Early concept of Trollhunter Douxie. Based on @pikinanouart design.
After looking at other canon Trollhunter designs, I've opted not to be fancy. Be extra work anyway, trying to come up with cool designs.
My OCs Loraine Muziki (or Museyi?) and Matthew Bleeker, a couple in my Tales of Arcadia story. They're the main Drummer and Singer of Ash Dispersal Pattern. (My take on the band is that all current members are immortal Wizards.)
I'm very pleased how Lore came out. Still looking for cool hairstyles for her, though. Think her second outfit, which is actually in the first photo, is my fav. Really suits her esthetic. (She's definitely wearing some kind of cool, goth looking boots.)
[OC info bellow]
[All info listed is subject to change]
Loraine Muziki/Museyi
Lore (looks 20-25?) is very musical, plays tons of instruments (including the harp), and is the "Cool Sis" of the group. She likes snakes and was definitely the kid who caught creatures to show others. Also, she's possibly from East Africa? (Need to do a lot more research on her origins)
Not sure about her age, but she's at least a few hundred years older than her 'brother', Kevin (he's from her siblings' line, and looks 17-20). She actually lived with her family despite not aging alongside them. Unfortunately, something happened, and she had to flee with a very young Kevin. She tells him stories of their family from time to time.
I am uncertain about her magic affinity and its colour right now. I was thinking wind. Orange and green are her current fav colours, but I'm not sure about them being the colour of her magic.
Matthew Bleeker
Matt (looks 20-25?) sings, plays piano, and sometimes fiddles around on the guitar/base. He stargazes and has a lot of astronomy knowledge (he loves talking about them, especially with Lore. She loves listening to him talk about space). Also, he loves parkouring and doesn't always think before he acts.
He was born sometime after either the 1300 or 1400 in the Netherlands. He knows fencing and some sword skills, but he's rather rusty at this point. (He also wasn't the best at it)
In current times, he has two roommates. One is Colton McTavish, a bartender. He knows about magic but has no magic of his own. The other roommate... exists. Trust.
Also, I've no idea what Matt's magic affinity and colour would be. Zero clue. I need to do more research in the different kinds of mancy there are.
Critique and assistance welcome. I know very, very little about Africa and the Netherlands, so any credible sources would be appreciated.
Also, suggestions for original first names would be amazing. (That includes Kevin) I want all my long-lived Wizards to have original names or names they've had before going back to their original.
... Maybe I'll make a post about how I think some aspects of the Wizard world might work in TOA.
"MK's drawing from Season [-] Episode [-] Drawn by memory." Nice. ^^;
[September 30, 2023 / October 1, 2023]
Would really like to see what the TOA characters would look like in other show styles. Think it'd be pretty cool. I certainly need to practice more for that kind of challenge. >:3
Remy is actually wearing a set of Irish/Scotish necklaces that I own. The circle one has a clover, and the rectangular one has two Kelpies facing each other. (Gah, I keep accidentally saying Selkie when I mean Kelpie)
Also... Zoe has unfinished eyes as I, once again, didn't use any refs. Did pretty well drawing Douxie without one (I think), but I still need to get myself to use them for Zoe.
Eyes are the bane of my existence in art. They always look wonky. At least refs help me draw hands better. With eyes... not so much. (My hair is somehow progressing. I think)
Remmel: "Can I... Will I have someone to help guide me?"
Morgana: "Indeed, child. We can not have one so young doing this alone, after all."
Remmel's meeting with Morgana. They know they died recently, but they've no idea why or how they ended up there.
A deal is made with Morgana, who definitely does not have ulterior motives. :] Remy gets to be reborn and receive guidance in exchange for freeing Morgana. Purely a selfish deal. No gut-wrenching fear guiding Remy's decision here. Nope. <_< >_>
Anyway, Remy's soul is placed in a stone, which is later merged with an egg. Wonder what kind of egg. Matters not, Remy has a human form when their able to start remembering things. :]
[2025]
Travis, Alec, and Remmel in another reality. House layout concept. Scaling feels wonky. :/ (Oh, hey, Trav's rocking his old hairstyle)
