Recently completed some Helluva Boss redesigns for my portfolio and wanted to share em here!! :)
I'm quite happy with how the poses turned out while I was working on these haha, hope you guys like it :D
Design Notes below 👇
(ok this time there won't be much additional drawings/doodles cus I'm really tired so do bare with me and this giant wall of text ToT I'l just go through the characters that have the most noteworthy things to talk about so apologies if I don't go through every character!!)
Design-wise I didn't change a whole lot besides outfits?? and slight species tweaks??
For imps I gave them unique skin tones with different shades of red/orange. For the eyes, I made their sclera reflect their ring of origin and eye color reflect the color of the sin who created them. (the IMP gang all have red eyes as their species originated from Satan, while their sclera colors are different as they are from different rings)
I also gave male imps spiked tails! >:D (I really wanted to make the lizard traits more obvious LOL)
I headcanon Blitz is born in the greed ring while Moxxie was originally born in the wrath ring but was moved to the greed ring where he grew up.
For Millie I thought it would be interesting to give her spots that resemble volcano/lava like the one seen in the wrath ring near her family farm??
For Verosika I gave her a lot of heart shape motifs in her design (honestly drawing her was sooo much fun)
For Stolas I tried to make him look more Owl like with the head 'tuffs' that also hold his 2nd pair of eyes and updating the royal uniform to look more formal (also lowkey got inspired by Prince Charming's uniform from Cinderella as part of the design inspo HAHA)
Also tried to give the crowns for the Ars Goetia characters more dimension? or I suppose actually make them look like regal crowns despite the shape being kept simplistic
Made the peacock/peahen-aspects of Stella and Andrealphus more obvious. If I recall Stella is meant to be a swan or dove but I kinda like it more if both stella and andre are kept as the same species?? perhaps stella has a recessive gene that explains her coloring or albinism? 🤔
also if i can be real for a sec, I feel like stella and andre's fits had so much potential hahah, while I liked OG Stella's feather skirt, I thought the top mismatched with the skirt which throws me off whenever I look at it, so I gave stella a more regal top that matches with her overall gown. As for Andrealphus, I think his figure got quite lost in his robe 😭 so i gave him a suit while having his 'tail' be the back part of his 'gown'
anywayss that's all the notes I have for now!! will try to do other characters soon once I find the time and motivation. thank you for reading this far!! 🫡 As always, these redesigns are done for fun + self-practice purposes!! i enjoy drawing things with my own spin on them and sharing with you guys :D
And since this short takes place immediately after "unhappy campers" that means Barbie and Fizz remained good friends before Blitzo and Fizz got kidnapped and becoming friends again in "oops"
