Compilation of Edward and EdRich doodles from 2022 - 2024 💞

Disabling reblogs since this log just contains my old arts

I can definitely see huge art improvement jumps in my style from 2022 -> 2023 -> 2024 -> 2025
So I'm really curious how he'll look in my current style in 2025.
My style shifted post April 2024 when I returned back to KagePro
I usually wouldn't post old art tbh but I just wanted to post these since I'm planning to draw EdRich again sometime...

EdRich (Edward/Richard) is my fave ship from the series 🖤💛❤️🤍
Cheerful Golden Retriever with a bright disposition x Grumpy Aloof Stoic Black Cat 🐕🐈⬛
They're from a niche dark gothic shoujosei (that is VERY heavy, please heed the TW/CWs for this series), based on Shakespeare's Tragedy Plays, Richard III and Henry VI.
I originally read the series in 2022.
They drive me crazy they're such a good ship on god
I've been writing for them since 2022, I just finally became public about them (since I've just been sharing them privately with mutuals)
I make ship AUs for most of my top fave ships for each series. I have about 20+ in total across my fandoms.
The EdRich AU is one of the first ship AUs I made (and one of the first series I started doing dialogue scripts for)
It started with my KHR AU when I was a teen, and then I did it when I wanted to create and write for my EdRich AU in 2022.
I can write a pretty in-depth Pros and Cons list of the series at some point. I love it but I also have very conflicted feelings about it because some parts of the series are distasteful to me (writing wise and other issues)
(Unfortunately, the series doesn't have anything to do with EdRich as a ship at all, so I wanted to explore their potential together. Basically, they're a big brain that my mutuals and I came up with.)
Though they're such an obvious pair, since Edward is canonically in love with Richard in a very sincere way, it's unfortunately just hopelessly unrequited in canon.
Canon-verse Richard doesn't care for Edward much (especially when compared to other charas in the cast), sighs......
Which is honestly pretty disappointing, since their charas and dynamic/dynamic potential compels me the most.
I wish Edward's love wasn't unrequited to the extent that it is in the series' narrative...
They're my fave charas of the series, and I love their deep parallelisms together.
Also I'm not using the series' name in my text rambles here cuz I want to avoid my rambles showing up in fandom search results rn
I dislike the majority of the fanbase since they're generally really uncritical and/or immature.
I was debating whether to tag my rambles or not, but as of the moment I don't think I will.
I wanna post both my AU fan-works and crits of this series later only as an update for my mutuals (as of the moment)
And I don't want my crit rambles to gain unsavoury traction/interactions.
I will use the #edrich and #edrh tags to tag my rambles for this series for now ^^
I'm debating creating links to public Notion pages and posting the links on Tumblr to talk about my crits of the series. We'll see.

Edward 💛👑🌹
Was rereading the manga lately. My baby I miss you 🥺
I was coming up with ideas for my EdRich AU again 😌
Old doodles from 2024 but I adjusted the colours
Tempted to redraw these soon 🙏
His hair was too strawberry pink imo so I shifted his hair to gold
Alt colour versions
Played around with Gradient Maps~
I like the idea of Edward having striking eyes that are in between light icy blue and green... 💙💚
Iirc in the LN, Edward's eyes were described as "Edward’s eyes are the colour of the sea that reflects the same blue sky (Henry)" so I want to keep that ref 🙏
I drew so many doodles of him omg 😭
Wait I made a mistake I drew this particular one in 2023
Looks like this kimono Edward with wagasa (oil paper umbrella) was drawn in February 2024 👘
I can definitely see huge art improvement jumps from 2022 -> 2023 -> 2024
So I'm really curious how he'll look in my current style in 2025.
My style shifted post April 2024
...
EdRich from February 2024 ❤️🤍
I'm personally not a fan of my old art, but I always try to archive and keep as much as possible to see the growth of my art overtime 🙏
...
EdRich scribble from 2022
I still think the comp idea of them biting on roses is a sexy art idea…
I have more thoughts on this ofc but I wanna post this now
...
EdRich doodles from 2022 ❤️🤍
One thing I can observe is that my line weights and sketching style have gotten significantly better since 2022
Nowdays I usually use inky strokes to make my art look more interesting
By usually putting thicker lines where lines intersect
...
It's so sad we were robbed of femme Edward so I gotta make EdRich yuri myself
I think I should redraw some proper doodles in the future
...
Adult Edward ❤️
Though I should redraw adult Edward in my current style at some point
Most of my doodles for this series were drawn in 2022

Official Arts 🌹
Edward of Lancaster (Chapter Cover Arts)
Adult Edward and EdRich (Volume Extra Paper)
God the lining style is so gorgeous...
EDWARD IS SO PRETTY ❤️🌹
God these chapter cover arts go SO hard
Art inspo for me.
I really admire the art style (the delicate, detailed lines), and the panelling/compositions.
