Hello tumblr dot com

Charlotte and Jane - sapphic version of Charles Chambers and John Fogg from New Year’s Day podcast (as requested by @lesbianwildflower), inspired by this photo of Joan Blondell and Geraldine Fitzgerald.

Their names are from @emilyclowder ‘s fic (go check it out!!)

More drawings and notes under the cut.

Charlotte Chambers

Character design tests

When designing them I thought to give Charlotte a slightly more conservative style not necessarily because she believes in those values but because she’s afraid of visibly stepping outside the norm. I think an important part of Charles’s character is that he’s scared of being seen as “other” and I wanted to highlight that in his female version.

I made Jane a bit more modern for contrast and because John is obviously not as bothered by societal expectations as Charles is. He is a lot bolder than Charles and follows new trends more.

Making them women born in the 19th century would make their lives a lot harder than in the original, and I think @emilyclowder had a great take on it. Because if we want the story to work the same they still have to get very successful careers and that would be a lot more difficult than in the original, considering the era.

Part of me is hoping Charles only finds John again in the next podcast episode and the other part is running around in circles screaming “NOOOOO” in all caps

Charles Chambers and John Fogg from New Year’s day pocast

Idk I just haven’t seen a lot of fanart so I had to make my own

There’s also a few character design tests in there to get me used to drawing them more consistently (which didn’t work but I tried)

Needles from The Magnus Protocol (final design)

Full page (character design tests+first doodle of him)

[thidapotato]

Low-effort drawings of characters from The Silt Verses (Paige, Faulkner, design tests for Hayward and Paige)

I haven’t finished listening to the podcast so I’ve been trying to avoid looking up fanart so idk how the fandom sees them.

Bonus sketchbook note

Something something something the catharsis of witnessing a character you relate to a bit too much make terrible decisions.

A lot of my posts here are Malevolent fanart but I have a scary amount of TMA fanart from april/may/june that I just haven’t bothered to post on Tumblr. These are just recent drawings.

[ieattaperecorders]

Listening to Malevolent for the first time. All I can say is -- my dudes, I know there's a lot going on but I think you need to be making the corpse in your office a higher priority.

[ieattaperecorders]

Everyone calls Jon Archivist Sims dumb for smashing the table. Meanwhile in the horror podcast next door Arthur just shoved the body of a guy he murdered into a closet and hoped that problem would solve itself.

He has the sheer audacity to ask "what are they doing there" when he learns the police are at his office. My brother in Cthulhu you committed a felony.

Me when I character whose main conflict/plot is centred around identity (they do not leave my brain ever/hyp)

Great quote. I will definitely be recycling that
