Monarch Redesign Part Two!

Finally got around to redoing his design!

I decided to give him a more monstrous look, to symbolise his depleting humanity, and went hard on the bug features.

For a little plot headcannon, I made the half of his face melty, as result from a battle with Ladybug and Chat Noir.

I still didn’t include the rest of the Miraculouses weapons, because I have no idea how to make them look good and I’m lazy.

Anyway, this was really fun to make, I might do the redo of the rest of Hawkmoth’s redesigns for fun (for example, Shadow Moth, Scarlet Moth, and Shadow Noir).

You guys probably know me as the creator of Miracles of the Creek (or don’t know me at all).

I am not a great artist like @zoe-oneesama , @officialfanbug and others, but, after seeing the official Monarch Design revealed on the teaser… I needed to do something urgently.

I inspired the design on a theory I had on how it would work on season 5. A more detailed explanation of how it works below:

 Monarch has a base form that was inspired by a Monatch. He uses a crown and the silver details of the past form have been replaced by golden ones. Not only to fit more with the color scheme, but also to represent victory.

The majority of the base outfit is brown and orange, colors that are close to neutral.

Once Monarch wants to use another miraculous he has possession of, his outfit, instead of having random animal parts added to it, earns some stripes and small details from the miraculous he is using.

I used the bee as an example (I didn’t draw the others because I was tired).

On the Bee form, Monarch’s outfit has yellow stripes and beehive patters on his shirt.

I just redesigned it because the canon one was really bad.

Monarch re-design. I kept the idea of the stained glass motif but I changed it a bit. I wanted him to be overly extravagant especially as he’s kind of gone a bit mad with power at this point and is not in tune with reality. I gave him a silly reflective butterfly mask that covers his eyes and a giant butterfly cape.

The first monarch design was boring but it had aspects I liked like the hair and the stained glass butterfly. The second monarch design is just so incredibly boring. It’s worse even than hawkmoth and shadow moth because this is supposed to be him at his ultimate power and there’s nothing in the design to suggest royalty or excess.
