I’m behind in uploading the art I’ve made since...April? Geez. Part of it is just cos I’ve been underway for a lot of it, but also I just haven’t been online much when I’ve been home.
Our next event in the server was making little character eggs! We only submitted one and voted on them tournament-style, but I made a whole set cos they were fun. Going middle -> left -> clockwise, the eggs are Raziel, Yesac, Marie, Gameo, Levin, Plus and Demon. It was very fun to essentially make lineless aesthetic icons for my OCs )))
The themes for Raz’s were cake (his main magic), a book (because of the one inside of him), and cuts/scars (because of the ones all over his arms and the big one in his abdomen). For Yesac it was just sunny days, his red scarf, and the emblem for the RDK that I never use lol Marie’s was based on death/her reaper, water and the moon. Gameo’s was twisted love, blue roses and the night sky. Levin’s was purely his visual aesthetic cos I felt guilty that most of mine were heavily symbolism-based and I thought I might be going too far afield of what the intentions were ;; Similar for Demon’s and Plus’s, though the cross for Plus’s was supposed to represent how his armor shatters and is cast off when he takes this form. Speaking of, that’s the one I submitted! We were supposed to have a reveal image for after the winner was chosen, so I sketched up Plus quick-like cos I didn’t have any actual art of him like this (I just do pencil doodles of it a lot). Mostly cos it’s incredibly spoiler-heavy and I tend to stay away from that stuff lol
The concept of it is, eventually Plus kinda breaks down over the fact that Data going around saving people in his own way from the game is slowly breaking the game’s coding, which is going to ruin it for the people who’ve decided to use it as a safe haven. He turns his back on the team and decides to fight them to save the game by preventing them from breaking it further. In so doing, he gives himself the power of the in-game monsters to be able to fight them (his monster arm) but also has a more tenuous grip on his own trauma, which causes it to morph more and more out of his own control (his deformed arm).
He ends up being the final boss that Data has to take on alone, but he cannot and will not defeat Data. The outcome of the battle decides his ultimate fate and that of the rest of the game, though.
