I tried drawing something whimsical and pretty while practicing backgrounds and shading. Think I made everything a lil too pink, but that's fine because its my fav colour.
But yeah, overall think I did pretty well with the lighting aspect more. Plus tangled au go brr
Just love drawing Isaac looking so done with Drew's sheltered life shenanigans and it's a great excuse to draw Pedro as well.
WIZARDING WORLD OF LOUIS LOPEZ RE-REFERENCES - Edward , Isaac
Tag is WWoLL if needed to be blocked, alongside wizarding world of Louis Lopez.
References with Notes can be found through the tag 'wwollrefs'
Isaac and Edward didn't quite exactly change. They had some upgrades here and there, admittedly a lot nicer then the previous designs. These designs were originally re-made way back in October of 2025, but I never ended up posting them. Though, the references going forward will/should be more as of lately.
More Information and Character Notes Beneath The Cut
Unlike the previous references (I.E The updated Justin and Louis from October), I decided that I will write down the notes here too instead of withholding them. The lineless art first, before I begin the notes.
Edward
Despite him being Mothman, or better put, based on the Mothman myth itself - he covers as a Zombie. As per original polls on the defunct blog of mine; that had been the original tie for his species. Basing upon those polls, some of those no longer go for the character (exam. the twins are no longer candy skulls.)
The Mothman is a large legend, so it's highly believed that people are just crazy. In reality, without getting a field of view of the outside view - everyone looks as they normally would in the normal IBVS story. This branches off of it in a more fantasy 'Oh shit theres actually more to meet the eye' part. With Mothman, Louis would probably freak out seeing a literal legend myth in front of him as well as the other jocks.
The way he changes from Mothman to Zombie is hardly known, it is something he's just able to do. I would think it's probably something to do per his powers - his strings.
- ^ When it comes to his strings, he can wrap himself in a sort of cocoon silk that transforms him to a zombie. When he wishes to change back, it's like shedding skin. It's really gross looking.
- ^ His strings are also technically silky threads, a lot gentler but still very strong. They're thick, and can be used to his advantage for hiding or otherwise 'shapeshifting' (it is for a very limited time.)
Unlike popular belief, light that is not natural like the sun, can disorinate Moths instead of just being there at your porch abnormally. That is why they're trying to fly towards your lights on your porch, as they follow light sources for guidance and is far confused when theyre off their path. For this to be incorporated into Edwards character, it has to do with his intuition. When his intuition is triggered, he feels light headed and it's like his gaze is fuzzy. He gets on a one-track mind and follows them frequently, kind of as normal Edward would do. The only difference is, that it tends to bring actual migraines and makes him sluggish for a short period of time.
Isaac
Isaac is based on the myth called The Demon Cat. It's part of american folklore, basically seen as an omen of dark tragedies. Usually seen as a normal sized black cat, turning into something that scares witnesses right after. Which, that's why Isaac can calmly switch between both human and cat alike.
His powers are also a bit more odd. The bag he carries, whatever object he uses must be related to something discarded. His old notebook from a child could be used, but nothing recently made. As well as his old brushes have to be well-loved to be used. Damaged objects will do more for Isaac compared to more repaired.
^ If the object were repaired and is used, then it only has a bit of a short lifespan compared to if they were damaged. It also wouldn't be as strong-willed in comparison. This can be problematic in situations where he only has objects that has not been used at all to defend himself.
-^ The ink manipulation is more then just ink itself. If an object is thrown in the trash that may have any trace of ink whatsoever, or maybe something that has been touched by a pen - he's able to pull it from the object itself at the cost of injury to his body (i.e the black marks scattered across him)
He frequently jumps roof to roof to get places he does not want to be seen at all. Which can result in hurt and ends up mainly damaging Isaac's clawed hands. He's not restricted to roofs though, it's just an adrenaline rush he uses when he 'needs to feel something'. He also uses it to escape Edward if he ever tries talking to him and he wishes not to interact
His ears and tail of course, show how he's feeling when he's feeling a certain way. It doesn't make it easy for him to hide emotions he doesn't wish to make obvious.
Despite his cardigan here, he still has his light-brown and black cardigan from his old reference. That will be what I may mainly draw him with.
The people of Tumblr have spoken... thank you to everyone who voted in the poll!! Tumblr won't let me edit my previous post for some reason (I COULDNT ADD CHREVINSTOPH TO THE TAGS NOO) so I made a separate post for this lol
HERE IT IS. MY IBVS MEAN GIRLS INSPIRED FIC.
Quick AU description: Instead of confronting Isaac about his powers directly, Edward incorporates him into his group first; Nevin uses this to begin plotting; also Chris is Isaac's only friend; there is so much gayness here from every character
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
In case you missed it: I noticed the IBVS fandom making a comeback but im out of it and haven't read the new chapters or anything. This fic has been sitting in my drafts for sooo long and it feels great to get it out!
Here's my other post I made where you can find out some more about this stuff
