i have had this open on my laptop for three days and i do not have the energy rn to fully finish it so heres an attempt at brian in hs style bc only doing tim didnt cure the hyperfixation. do not ask what is happening w his anatomy. i dislocated all his limbs and he's very sensitive about it
bonus (w credit 2 @/sickhoondr's guide to drawing the mh chars helping me w alex's fucking hair) based on something my friend said on call while i was drawing:
jade died at a young age from an accident with one of her grandpa’s flintlocks, but with the help of some spare parts, some scrap metal, and the family dog, she’s back and deader than ever!
other kids in this au: john, rose
above are her main outfits. alternate outfits under the cut:
right to left, up to down:
swim outfit, gym outfit, pyjamas, 3am dress, and dress of eclectica. + her base to show off all of her scars :]
- i made her design based on ancient persia since I want to make roxy a manticore, which originates from ancient persia. this works bc the sphinx is also present in ancient Persian mythology.
- sphinxes in ancient persia are typically depicted as being the guardians of kings and therefore I made her default outfit based on a reconstruction of a noble woman’s outfit from the achaemenian era (totally not bc i couldn’t find any other clothing references…) and her fancy outfit is loosely based off of a noble woman’s outfit from the parthian era.
- i made her name in the style of a traditional persian last name. i used the “al” prefix to preserve the first two letters of lalonde and ended it with an “i” because: A) it’s a common suffix in Persian surnames and B) because it was my attempt at preserving the “de” ending sound of lalonde. “mardi” comes from the persian word for manticore, to add a monster aspect into her name and connect her with roxy. i’m kinda sad i couldn’t make her surname closer to lalonde but you gotta do what you gotta do
- the stone on her main outfit’s necklace is based on the anachitis stone, a stone used by magi (a group of people in ancient persia known for being priests and performing magic) to conjure spirits from water. this combines rose’s interest in dark magic as well as rose’s associated classical element AS WELL AS being related to ancient persia so this detail was just too perfect not to add.
also pls understand that i did all of this research just for this design and that most of my sources were wikipedia so this info might not be super accurate. if you notice any inaccuracies in my info, pls lmk!!! ill update this post with corrections as needed :]
Im on the plane and my non dominant thumb is sprained but i wanted to try drawing my godtier headcanon for jay even if this doesnt look like him much at all. Anyway bad character take of the day is if be more chill existed when jay was in highschool he would have projected onto jeremy. This doesnt make sense at all for him i just think its funny
