character design is my passion compilation. featuring some reaaaaal unfinished stuff and some reaaaaaaal poorly utilized canvas space. but maybe... i dont gaf....
Henway is Mavreo's age and is friends with them....kinda... more so with Adelaide and Carmen. he's kindof a bitch. and then Elaine redesign attempts. and then Europa, who's a post runner & painter. and is Foster's friend slash.....foster-sibling.....kinda.... Foster is older by some years. lastly is three rando designs. guy in the middle i have plans to make a school teacher maybe. while the other two are part of Dr. Maverick's girl gang (her team of fax machinists). only one of em has a name for now..... (We-ren).
ah yes 2000s era loungewear. cute. clearly i can't keep myself from dressing maverick in red/bluegreen. additionally, as it says, ghost Maverick cannot speak.... however. under normal circumstances i actually tend to think of his voice claim as being my voice LOL.. but in absence of that I think Grace Ashcroft (Resident Evil 9) is pretty good. we don't sound similar but her stutter and anxious demeanor compel me. i'd love to have a video with clips of her voice but i simply do not have a video editing setup right now, and since i'm already days behind i elected not to try. so sorry.
DP OC PARADE Day 1: Introduction. hello dp community. here i am posting my intro post three days late. no sweat.
THIS is Maverick. He's actually a fully original character I've made a dp au with! so much of his backstory is sorta up in the air as I find ways to blend my story with the show's canon, LOL. As a human, he lived with his older brother in a secluded small-town where he worked as a paperboy ...he did not have many friends. he's very enthusiastic about the postal service and wanted to be a mailman when he got older, however he was killed before he got the chance.
As a ghost, he's leaned fully into being a postman. postghost, maybe. he spends a lot of time wandering around the ghost zone trying to find mail to deliver or to send his own letters to others. he does much the same in amity park, although he's not pleased with how much email and online messaging has made his job obsolete. unfortunately, due to the circumstances of his...death... he cannot speak as a ghost. he communicates solely through his letters, which he can instantly summon fully-written from his messenger bag. he's also able to manipulate mail that isn't his own and utilize pyromancy.
he's generally somewhat shy in personality. he'd sooner send a letter than try to interact with someone directly. he often felt ignored and belittled in life (due in part to his brother) and his inability to speak as a ghost only fuels these feelings of inadequacy. this results in him having a bit of a hot temper (based on the phrase "going postal"). he can use his letters for attacks, and while they're not that strong, the spam mail can get quite annoying. he would start off as an antagonist to Danny and his friends (he was mad that Danny wasn't answering his letters) before shifting to more of a friendly background character/occasional nuisance. he's otherwise fairly nice and friendly if you have the patience to deal with him. my blorbo ^_^
extra tidbits here bc Maverick is my favorite oc of all time and i think about him a ton:
in the original story he's actually a human clone. and danny phantom canonically has cloning. such a rare opportunity to do a crossover where that's the case. and yet. i feel like Maverick has such a strong mail gimmick here that i'm not even sure how to bring up the cloning aspect without sounding insane. my draft idea was that his template (who was a scientist who helped develop human cloning in my story) did the same thing in dp-world. but the project was either shut down or hidden or something. so the general population has no clue. meanwhile, Vlad, trying to make clones of Danny, stumbled upon some of the research and used it to help try and clone a halfa, with varied success. and somehow in the background of all that, Maverick came to exist as a clone. and then died. lol.
also i was being all vague earlier but Maverick was murdered, yes. with that axe. his head came off. hence the no-speaking issue. he can in fact take his head off in his ghost form but there's not a ton of utility in that. besides perhaps throwing it or mailing it to people to scare them. besides his passion for mail, he's also secretly trying to track down his killer (..his brother) but he hasn't had a ton of luck. one day he'll finally be able to give him a very strongly worded letter....
in my story he also has some background oracle theming (the cloning machine he was made on is called "Delphi" and. his original first name was Delphine... among other things which would be too complicated to explain here) and so i had considered giving him a minor prophetic ability. he can predict the near future in his letters, but since no one tends to read them no one ever realizes. i think it would be funny if HE didn't even realize, either. actually i'm realizing right now this could be an interesting "episode" plot. Danny gets strange letters predicting bad or annoying things happening to him and thinks that the person writing the letter is also causing them, but in reality Maverick is just telling him in advance by complete accident. could be kinda funny.... may also be an ironic ability because he sure didn't see his own death coming. ha ha. ouch
anywho, he's also left handed. and has a crooked tooth resulting in a little tooth gap on his left side. okay long spiel over, i think. hope you enjoyed <3
Last of my years-old Ethan drawings. ft. Elena my girl. The first one is a favorite of mine I tried to do realistic mold texture by cutting up yarn to use as flocking. but I didn't have properly colored yarn OR dye so I tried to color it with paint which made it clumpy. so. little bit awkward execution but I'm still very happy with it I wanna try again someday. it's titled "Absence Makes the Heart Grow Mold." The other thing was an oil pastel project thing from my highschool art club smiles.
Little bit of old non-mvrck oc miscellanea. ft. Whitlock and Feliks. lastly is Hitzack but the awesome terrible thing about redesigning OCs is trying to determine their sense of style. like why don't you just wear clothes what do you need me for
haven't drawn Ana in a criminally long time. behold Maverick clone V before she started killing people. she was designed to be b(etter than you)eautiful.
my beautiful friend Baltimore. she's a hunter and for some reason her favorite gun is an old left-handed rifle she found and restored. she's right handed.
yay more mvrck characters. Melina has existed for years vaguely in my mind as "Miss Melina" but I was having a hard time designing her until I decided to make her Elizabeth's sister apparently. mfw your sister kills a bunch of people and you end up having to house the lone survivor who is also a child because you run a public resource center #awkward
happy post-Friday-the-13th / Valentine's day from Maverick & Reo. what is love if not supporting your boyfriend who is covered in his own viscera (which was cloned from his DNA but isn't actually from inside his body) (because he was taking a dip inside the cloning machine ) ??? fullbody under the cut warning
i know this is extremely out of context bc i haven't talked about this part of the story at all but it's kinda one of my favorite parts. Maverick is spending a lottt of time inside of the Delphi-4 for a while and not really for good reasons but because of [spoilers] he crawls back out. and is just so yucky disgusting. and Reo will hug & kiss him even if he's covered in goo. Reo likes the goo, even. because it's Maverick's goo. this is just awful. love wins.
but even without context Maverick drenched in blood has been a long-time goal of mine. finally he is real.
family resemblance.... 2!! redraw of last year's Birthday Maverick. since i've since redesigned both the fax and the machine. they look less alike now because Maverick is not so blonde at this stage of his life anymore. but truly... it's the unending darkness that counts.
