Wasn’t the post plan for the night, but still needed so here’s Chazz’s notes/ref thing! Done this way so I don’t go too crazy on this.
Chazz is a narth, which are the “humans” of the Team Prototype setting. He’s the lead singer and guitarist of the band ZyxZ as well as the face of the band.
he’s a guy that loves his fans and loves giving a good concert.
His headcanon singing voice is Dexter from The Offspring.
Chazz was actually the final band member to join since Milkzee and Tala started the band, got Volrex by luck and got Chazz when they needed a singer, who comboed as a guitarist.
Anyways, Chazz notes and a new height chart for the band. Milkzee could throw Chazz if he wanted to.
It’s been so long since Volrex was seen, in color, and now here he is.
He’s a long time character that was put away due to conflicts with his colors. I could never settle on his updated colors till recently and I like the tweeks he got.
Gone are all his reds and replaced with greens. I honestly love this change greats since the red with blue did start to annoy me, least that shade of them.
Volrex is still the same gloomy bird alien he alwasy was. He’s Nix’s younger brother that specialized with long range shooting(sniper), but he moreso does drumming for the band Zyxz.
I also posted his profile on toyhouse: https://toyhou.se/4508327.volrex
-Part 1- -Part 2-
Told my friend I would finally post these. Some more fun with drawing my OCs to some My Hero characters.
Since Phin has Bakugo he kinda suffers a bit to the quirkswap and was challenged to draw him to the swap, so he got Momo’s outfit. XD
Since I liked Bakugo’s Halloween outfit I just wanted to see how Phin would look in it. I drew his legs shorter then normal here, yet it works.
We don’t talk about the middle image. I just wanted to draw that expression.
Last two are Volrex as Hitoshi Shinso...which really was just drawing Volrex normally but with the uniform. Volrex is not a positive guy.
Side note for newer people: Volrex is Nix’s sibling. I haven’t drawn him in awhile,but really that’s how he looks, minus the uniform here.
3) What is their preferred method of transportation?When traveling places they just use their personalized shuttle. Not too much of a choice there since they gotta haul all their equipment around.. 7) What clothing do they like to wear, and what do they wear most often?Chazz tends to wear the most various outfits out of the group. He just wears what he thinks looks cool to him. His common outfit tends to always involve him wears his large bead necklace and something with blue in it.Tala prefers various purple outfits that allow her a lot of flexibility.Milkzee just wears large hooded clothing that tends to have red in it and his shoes. Volrex keeps it simple with mainly wearing his worn black hoodie and something with spikes as an accessory.11) What do they do when they need comfort? Do they seek out a person, a food, an activity, etc?Chazz will tend to talk to the others or just sing outloud while playing his guitar. He might take a smoke from time to time or a drink, but those aren’t his first option.Tala likes the comfort of others the most. Milk and Chazz tend to help her the best they can.Milkzee will eat food or workout a bit to ease his mind.Volrex with either smoke or drink and keep to himself. The others will try to pull him to talk with them when he’s feeling low since they know his mindset. 20) Do they like to travel? How do they pack and prepare?They gotta love to travel since they’re a band, but Volrex really isn’t a fan of it. They all pack their instruments, couple personal items, clothes, etc mattering how long on the road they’ll be.
My friend Yark’s birthday was yesterday, and I haven’t had a chance to work on what I wanted for her yet, so I did this as a kind of place holder gift.
I wanted to play around with ideas for album covers for the band Xyzx in the Team Prototype setting, and the first one I decided to try and create the cover similar to Gorillaz’s “Demon Days” album.
This was an idea I had in my head for the longest time. I decided to use an old reference sketch that Yark had up since they were all in profile already; I just cleaned them up and did the color corrections and such for this.
Today is the final part to “Feather Fallen”.
This part is a bit shorter compared to the last part, but hopefully it will be a good wrap-up for this series.
I hope you enjoy!

The trip back to Union was a long and quiet one but finally they made it back, the ship landing in the hanger bay. For Nix and Volrex, the trip couldn't be over sooner.
The trio stepped off of the ship, Gil rubbing his hands together. "Welp! That went pretty smoothly, if I do say so myself!" He smirked, looking over to the other two, seeing that they were anything but thrilled. "Well...I guess we'll be hearing from command soon for our official reports."
"Yeah, we'll need to deal with that." Nix said, rubbing her neck as she tried to ease some of the tension they were feeling. "...never look forward to that part."
"Yeah." Volrex said; he didn’t have anything to add and he out of everyone was the most eager to leave.
Gil cleared his throat, "But hey! It was good to get a chance to work together, eh? Never got a chance to do something like this before!"
Volrex growled, "Do me a favor the next time you try this; drop dead."
Nix just sighed and shook her head, looking over to the gull. "At least it was nice seeing you again."
Gil blinked, "What...don't you guys want to celebrate or anything? At least get a drink or something?"
"Feck off." Volrex replied.
Nix shook her head. "I'm just looking forward to heading back home and getting some rest." She sighed heavily and looked at him, "Take care of yourself, Gil."
Without another word, Gil watched as the two walked off, watching silently. They couldn't see, but there was a brief look of disappointment on his face. He just shrugged it off, stuffed his hands into his jacket pockets and headed back onto his ship.
Nix and Volrex stepped away from the ship and stopped to wait for the lift.
"Do you want me stay around for a while?" She asked, looking over at him with a concerned look.
Volrex shook his head, "No, I have plans. I already sent a text to Tala, so she knows where and when to get me." He grumbled a little, "Besides, you don't look too good, I think you need to rest." He looked over at her, "...it was worth a try, Pheebs. I am glad we made the attempt."
She nodded silently, staring down at the ground.
Volrex watched her, rubbing her neck before he spoke up again. "Listen...we're gonna be playing a show not too long from now. Would you and your team like some freebie tickets? We're gonna be busy with practice, so I wouldn't mind hanging out with you after the show."
Nix looked over at him and she gave a small smile. "I think I would like that. It would be good...and I know Sparks would be thrilled."
Volrex nodded, "Alright, I'll send them your way later on this week."
Finally, the lift stopped at their level and they stepped inside.
"Just do me a favor, Rex."
"What's that?"
"Don't overdo it too much, okay?"
"...I'll try."

Nix returned to the station only to find that the others were still out on assignment. Right now, she was very glad to see that. She could fill Wart in on the details later, she just really needed time to herself and get some much needed rest.
She went for the lounge area first, but she jumped when she saw someone else already there. "Zech?" She blinked a bit, unable to hide her tired surprise. "What are you doing here? I figured you would have gone with the others."
Zech looked over to her and jumped up to his feet. "Hey Nix! Well, I was going to but kinda decided against it in the end. Turns out the assignment involved going to the Needlix homeworld to retrieve a lost probe that sank into the swamp. Given how much the reward was, I figured I could stay out and let the others get the bigger share. Wart was all for the idea."
"I bet." Nix said, sighing as she walked over and sat; nearly flopping, down onto the couch.
Zech watched her, looking a bit worried, "Hey, are you okay? You don't look so good."
"I just..." She started to say, but she stopped short; she had no idea how much Zech knew about what she or the others did so she didn’t want to give him any ideas. "It was just a very long trip. I just...right now I don't want to talk about it."
Zech nodded, "Okay..." He twitched his ears, but he took a seat. "Well...if you do want to talk about anything, I'm here to listen."
She sighed, "You don't have to..."
"No, I don't -have- to," He said, "But, you and the others have been with me at some rough moments...I'm more than happy to do the same."
Nix looked over at him for a moment, but she nodded and smiled a little. "Thanks Zech..." In that moment, she wanted to ask Zech something about the future, even though she already knew he probably wouldn't say. She just hoped that her two hatch-brothers were doing well in his time.

The sun was just starting to set as Volrex returned to the familiar bar, stepping inside and right up to the bar, taking his usual seat. All he could think of was how glad he was the place was quiet tonight.
The Needlix barkeep walked over to him, reaching down under the bar, "The usual?"
Volrex was quiet for a long moment, staring at the bar top before he finally looked up. "Marker’s Make. Two glasses, leave the bottle."
The bar keep gave him a curious look, but he pulled out two shot glasses, two glasses of water and finally an unopened bottle. "Waiting for your buddy then?" He asked, cracking the bottle open and pouring the first shot.
Volrex watched him pour the drink, "Yeah...yeah you could say that."
The barkeep sat the bottle down for him and he left the Razorwing alone.
He picked up the glass and stared at the amber liquid for a long, solemn moment. "It's over now, Owen. I hope it was what you wanted in the end." He quickly downed the drink and took a moment to swallow it. "...but damn man, you have crappy taste." He said as he poured himself a second shot.
