the whole 'nobody would miss me if i were gone' line of reasoning is so completely and mindblowingly false, it's almost laughable if you take a couple steps back. there's a lady at work who has been there for maybe two or three weeks and has only talked to me a handful of times, ask where the necklace i usually wear went. another person asked where i was cause i wasn't scheduled for about a week. i regularly think of friends who have deactivated their accounts or who i've lost contact with and what id tell them. i still think about people i haven't talked to for years even though i didn't know them well. people still think about you even if you're a passing specter on the street. and that's not even holding a candle to how much the people who are personally involved in your life care. people do notice and care. all the time. it might be hard to see it or remember it but people do care. ily.

the cool kids, drawn 10/19/2023. tito is lighting roth's sword on fire

[tricobicoart]

rothena trying to use a regular sword to deflect a power/magic/rocket launcher because she's forgotten that she's not using a magical sword anymore, so she gets half her face blown off (she's fine)

concept for rosa (rothena's gem component, thena is the human component) as zhe may appear in tadc :>

[tricobicoart]

i'll probably stick with the goat-lion-corruptedquartz design tho :]

i'm rly proud of this, for only having 3 layers i think it looks rly good for my only like 10th attempt at lineless art also in this pic i gave roth 2 fingers 1 thum & 4 toes and tito 3 fingers 1 thumb & 3 toes as a sort of parallel to each other before remembering that she & tito have the same number of fingers

concepts for roth's gem. maybe making it a pouch/bag like how tito's shell pocket dimension becomes a backpack, or keeping it a gem but changing the shape a little

[tricobicoart]

more tadc rothena early concepts! concept 1: u can pull the rock out and it turns into a solid goo(like gooigi), that's roja, and then the rock is thena, which is the irony of it

concept 2: teddy bear idk

concept 3: lalaloopsy doll inspo & slight bulhamet twins inspo

based on mix n match & homemade toys! Ropes for arms(the orange parts represent scars), rock hands bc part gem, the middle piece is a blue-painted wooden block with scratches in the paint representing scars, and i've gone away from the legs' lineart intention by changing them from teddy bear legs to play-doh or air-dry-clay legs with fingerprints on them.

re-redesign concepts under the cut

[tricobicofriend]

was out last weekend & realized "hey tadc!rothena could be drawn or designed sillier" & so doodled up these, then colored them today!

[tricobicofriend]

Rothena in the amazing digital circus!! Morningstarships let me borrow his png of da bois(tm) to sketch a concept for her! Atlas & Tito are pomni's height & shorter in tadc, so rothena is only a lil taller than kinger. Haven't fully decided on an outfit for her yet, but have decided on her 'species'/avatar!

smoky quartz has such a pleasant color palette, i really should draw more with it <:)

Gem species redesign ideas! Just for fun/mine own frustrations, the show's designs are really fun & great!! Detail ramblings under the cut!

At first i was like "what if the quartzes were just, like, hair? but the hair was actually grappling & stabbing tentacles?" Then the second quartz was based on their corrupted forms but also me thinking "gems are very humanoid, so how could we kit a human body out for violent non-weapon combat?"

And then i went a lil more "vaguely decorated coat rack/christmas tree" for the first pearl design with ribbon limbs, bc i read it somewhere in this redesign post & it sounded so cool, and then the mousy pearls(the point at which i decided to go less abstract & more humanoid) are inspired by these & these!

Moonstone based on moonstone(excerpt from drawing: "arms like shelves? Inconsistent with shape language, maybe give them close-to-their-form levitation abilities and platforms for limbs, forming their own limbs counts as individuality? Here is where separating moonstones (high class servants, but still servants) from pearls gets tricky") from me & autistic-yveltal. Pictured with her are more pearl design ideas based on peridot calling them "trinkets".

Corundum/garnet designs was me going off an idea autistic-yveltal had of sapphires w eyes all over, my rubysona redesign, abstract gems au on tumblr, and that cool centaur horse from the owl house concept pilot. Most of these ones r traced from official renders/model sheets/screenshots.
