I feel as though I need to address somethings seeing as some of the people i follow have also made post regarding these and I just want you guys to know that I do
NOT. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Tolerate people harassing others
pedophiles
Death threats
Homophobia and/or transphobia as I am trans myself
NSFW accounts (I had to block one back when I first made my account)
Forgive my language but I do not want any of these sickos interacting with my page, most of the people that like my content are minors and as an adult im very much aware of this and put warnings on certain pieces and avoid posting certain art.
And im not even comfortable posting NSFW content! I'd rather go skydiving with no parachute then post that stuff.
If you do any of the following you WILL be blocked.
Just an update on the au thing of mine, don't worry im not canceling. But it will take some time, as I have work and by the time I get back from work im dead tired so I'll try my best to work on it on my days off.
BUT I CANT KEEP CALLING THIS THING MY AU!
So, I was thinking of calling it Forgotten Film! You can read Riddleys little lore thing under his character sheet for as to why im calling it Forgotten Film, but tldr it involves the tapes. (If you guys can think of a better title for this comic I would love to hear so! Im not all that attached to the name so if you guys have a better name in mind please don't be shy!)
Heheheh I got to put Harry and dyle on my siblings island on tomodachi life, as well as Riddley of course! Very happy my sibling let me put those three in their game (keep forgetting they're the #1 fan of this ship)
BRO FOR TWO THAT WERE WILLING TO RISK IT ALL TOOK THEY'RE SWEET TIME CONFESSING.
My sibling mainly likes welcome home, so that's why wallys in the background.
I have to confess something… if you asked me what type of ship dynamic between dyle and my oc would be, I would say Crack ship turned into serious doomed yaoi.
Crack ship what do you mean? Dyle wasn't the whole reason I shipped him with Harry or Harry's love for tinkering on clocks… Dyle inspired me to redo Harry yes! But not ship them (it definitely helped though).
No what really put the final nail in the coffin
WAS THIS STUPID FUCKING MEME
Ughhhh…
It also sort of set up they're dynamic with one another, actively trying to piss off the other with snarky remarks and so on. Not the case anymore. Well. Not entirely, they still make snarky remarks but more towards other toons then towards the other.
I like to Imagen Dyle would still make a joke towards Harry in how he's often mistaken for a rabbit then a hare.
(thank god no offense im really trying not to just post dw content, and to broaden what I draw/make i still plan on doing dw content like my little au and stuff but its not what i want to always make ya know?)
BUT I do want to show off the little goobers I've made with my sibling. We've been hit with lps nostalgia and the customization aspect of the lps community soooo we got to crafting! Here are mine that I made.
Made these a while back.
Great Dane name is Asher and the collie is named Cylas.
I re did Riddley like I said I would. Similar to Harry had to pull yet another anatomy card to get his head right, still struggling. But its not art without its struggles, and like most struggles they can be overcome. It'll just take time.
Im genuinely very happy seeing all the interactions I've gotten on my last post.
Im going to try to get around designing the "side characters" it will take some time (there's like what? 39? 31 excluding mains and lethals) so I hope you guys stay long enough, so rodger may get the justice he deserves
ALRIGHT ENOUGH MUSHY STUFF IT LORE/AU TIMEEEE!!!!
Riddley Rouge: in the time of Gardenviews opening Riddley was created to handle guests that would come in through the front doors, providing entry tickets for parents and children alike. Riddley's front desk was also a sort of guest services, where parents could figure out when certain time events would occur/ where they were located, questions regarding possible deals,how/what they're made of. Or to find lost items!
Speaking of lost items! Riddley, at the end of the day and his breaks will go around finding items that were possible left by guest a long side Tisha for max item finding efficiency! Any items they would find will be put into the lost & found bin at his desk. Any merchandise items that had not been returned to its owner will be put back to be sold.
Riddleys was created to adapt depending on the situation or group, meaning he's able to make conversations with the most unlikely of toons, like the train conductor himself! Took a lot of effort to get Dyle to be willing to be friends with him, with his "I don't have the luxury for friends." Often pulling Dyle from his work to chat about something a guest said or did, listening to Dyle ramble on about trains and the occasional favorite movie, or the latest gossip!
And... It took just as long for Dyle to open up to him, and Riddley encouraging Dyle to speak up on whats troubling him to Arthur and Delhia.
Actions have consequence they both new that. But only one was punished
Now to why he got ["retired"]
Unfortunately, Riddley started to show small behaviors of hoarding, holding on to things he thinks neat or the occasional gift idea for his fellow toons, that's no big deal he's allowed to do that if he wishes, the problem was that the items he would keep most of them were from guests (and they weren'thappy about it). That's not to bad a few talks can fix that… What was though, was when he would pull Dyle from his work. Gardenview has an image to uphold and part of that image includes its trains arriving and departing on time. Its was ok, not great but ok if it happened once or twice. But multiple times within a week isn't and with Gardenview and the show getting more popular an image had to be up hold, so it was decided that Riddley Rouge would no longer be part of the working toons and be retired.
Now what does it mean to be retired? As Arthur puts it "its when a toon has done all they could do for this place and is going to go to a new place where they continue to do what they do best." Is what he say to guests (mostly children). In reality its where the toon in question is removed from any and all materials from merch to tapes, the worst part of the process is when it comes down to the other toons. Where they are made to forget the toon in question by the removal of some parts of their film.
In my au tapes are how toons are made say for Dyle and Dandy, Dandy being the first ever made and Dyle never having a part in the show, so they were made with pure ichor.
So removing/splicing part of the tapes film can cause a toon to forget, everyone forgets except for Dandy and Dyle whether its because they were the first to be created or a lesson to be made.
Now for the retired toon in question what happens to them, if you watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit or follow the myth of the machine you know what dip is. Its not dip its just acetone I say it as an example, for Riddley though the acetone was watered down a bit since there wasn't enough, and in a way was a saving grace he still melted a good amount, but still formed enough to make an escape. He spent most of his time in hiding (Dyle and ■■■■■ morned the death of their friend) only after he was in a better state did he try making contact with Dyle.
Que the water works and "I thought you died!" And "My death was greatly exaggerated." So after the closing he was able to reconnect with his old pals. Even setting up a little shop on Fridays with little trinkets he's found over his years of collecting for his fellow toons to stop by for a browse or the friendly chat!
I got a massive boost of motivation after seeing their design take on Dyle in their Soltice Hour au! Highly recommend you guys check them out and their comic au!
I had so much fun drawing him, I went little above and did shading, and uhh in the process added some extra stuff to his frame.
After being rudely threatened by my sibling here's some lore about another oc i have yet to show! This is Riddley Rouge
Chat i WILL be redoing his character sheet because God damn that's a little to messy even for me
Yes he's a leathal, throw your tomatoes now I know, but hear me out. It sort of irritates me that we don't have a forced leathal its all a choice.
You chose to ignore dandy.
You chose to do dyles challenge. And to throw salt into the wound, you can only do his challenge once.
I wanted it where you had no choice.
Only appearing after the player has completed a floor with twisted dandy and dyles challenge. Upon which after every ten floors the elevator light will began to flicker and your floors will began to decrease, until the floor number will say "upper lobby".
(Now upper lobby is referring to the main entrance to gardenview not the starting lobby, since that lobby is underground.
Dont worry after completing the challenge you'll be brought back to your previous level)
The player will be finally be introduced to the surface level of gardenview, and its gaurd dog.
There's a reason why no ones stepped foot in gardenview after its closing and riddleys why.
Upon entering the abandoned lobby players will be met with a mostly empty floor say for a few scattered crates, tables, and other stuff and a empty store front where guest had once be able to purchase entry tickets to enjoy what the garden center once offered.
-Riddley's game mechanic in and outside of runs-
Im so sorry for past me drawing skills, but if you couldn't tell riddley's a bat in his lethal form!
Blackouts have a higher chance on his floor.
Because he's a bat his hearing has increased meaning if you mess up a skill check or complete a machine, you better find a hiding spot.
And a increased in hearing means he will be able to hear you run, so its paramount that you don't run!
If your playing in a team, upon the death of a teammate there's a small chance riddley will drop whatever item the teammate had on them.
Now for outside the elevator!
Now not all of us will be able to play during holiday events we have a life after all!
So every Friday, outside the starting lobby and to the left, will be Riddley's shop! In his shop he will sell holiday costumes for the price of ichor.
Depending on the toon the costume will cost a certain amount.
Mains: 2500
Rares: 1700
Uncommons: 1230
Commons: 750
For holiday events he will be available everyday until the end where he goes back to appearing on Fridays, and instead of costumes he will trade ichor for event currency, again we can't always be able to play the events and this way you don't have to grind runs as much.
I hope you liked reading a bit about him i might go into how he fit in my au more another time, but right now i have work in the morning and this already long enough.
Alright, let me go over some au shenanigans to make sense as to why I drew them the way they are, and a little special quest.
Astro: so why the dreamscape design?
Simple, I'd like to think that when Astro enters his land of dreams he takes on a different appearance to fit the sleepy/cloudy land where the other toons dreams take place.
All the toons dreams are connected to a sort of cloud island where Astros can watch over them, and keep out unwanted beings from causing harm.
Also cuz of that one meme where people would draw astro as either the fancy robe or the 1800s sleep wear. I've always saw him as a mix of both.
Sprout: whos?- I'll get to him.
For Mr. Seedly, I wanted him to be more then just a baker and his whole character being around cosmo.
So in my au, after gardenview closed down to cut back on costs, Sprout took it upon himself to grow some of the produce to feed his fellow toons. Im aware that im not the first to think up the gardener idea for Sprout but its very fitting and sperates him from cosmo a bit.
Speaking of cosmo, yes they were quite close. I'd like Imagen after gardenview closed and following of the toon handlers being let go, took a deep hit to Sprout as he cared deeply about Sam even going far as calling them an older sibling to Sprout. After the lost he seclude himself from the others even from cosmo. Of course it took some time but Sprout slowly started getting better even going far as styling his leaves after Sam's hair. He still spends time with cosmo but not as much as before.
Scars from a older twisted attack
_________________________________________
Yes now we can talk about him.
my friend and sibling really wanted me to draw Sprout with the moomin head shape, problem is, I REALLY did not want to change my take of his twisted. And I was just about to start the coloring for Sprout, I still drew Sprout with the other head shaped just copied and pasted what I drew from the first Sprout and scooted it over for the other. It was half way when I decided that I was gonna make Sprout a little clone.
Berry: how is he a clone? And how was he made?
Sort of…
Blame Gigi and Connie.
They wanted to play a little prank on dandy. How they did this? By taking one of dandys what im gonna call "vintage" ichor capsule of Sprout and bribed Eclipse to burry it in one of sprouts garden patches.
Sprout happened to plant strawberries in said patch, broke the capsule thinking he hit water thought nothing of it until 3 months later and cosmo NOT EVEN SPROUT finds the guy amongst the turnips.
Now as for the clone part, berry is a early version of Sprout (if the vintage ichor wasn't a clue) not by design wise, but memory wise sort of… Like you and your sibling went to the park and saw the same sights went on the same rides and ate the same food but when someone ask how it went you two are going to describe a similar experience just told differently.
Now being an early version of Sprout means he doesn't have current sprouts memories so he doesn't know some of the toons around him or that gardenview closed, because of his older memories he remember things from the past that current Sprout might of forgotten.
Berry isn't fully a toon, that's because he's mostly organic. And because he's organic means he unable to be brought back, so Sprout (after the two decided who was the true Sprout and Berry agreeing to be Berry)
Is not allowed on ichor runs, Berry is ok with this not to happy about the situation, but the whole not coming back is pretty good reason not to go on any runs.
Dandicus Dancifer:
THAT FUCKING FLOWER THAT I HATE WHEN I SAY I STRUGGLED
I s t r u g g l e d.
Dandy gave me so much trouble with his design I had to ask my sibling for help to finally get to the dandy that you see now.
Bro his face and petals gave me a headache, for some reason whenever I drew his eyes he'd look like a panda sometimes.
I hope you can see the lion/feline aspect of him since, dandy is most likely a dandelion and wanted to lean on that idea since,
(TO NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE let make this clear im not trying to be rude towards those who draw dandy in their style your allowed to draw him the way you want to
and my version is not better than someone else's version of him, we are all alowed to express the way we see these characters)
I didn't like how people would make dandy look like an alien of sorts and why I struggled when making him. i would see other people's takes on dandy, they looked great! AMAZING EVEN, but none of them felt close to him, or I should say close to how Qwel planed for him and I let his in game model sort of hold me back because of it. So i decided to let go of the barriers that I put up for myself. And that's when I remembered dandelions and actual lions and it gives a much easier transition to his twisted form so i gave him animal legs and under his gloves are rainbow claws and toe beans✨️. This may not be his final design as I feel i could lean a bit more towards the feline designs, but right now im ok with him like this might make him cuter for his pre closing design.
Vee: she evil?
No no no, she's not evil don't worry. Her design is very simple as i thought she didn't really need all that, why her eyes are like that is because of my au.
In my au due to the lack of humans vee isn't able to get regular updates or check ups. It got bad to the point Vee would be blue screen for weeks. Its was a group decision (brightny, dandy, dyle and shelly) that they would, find a twisted vee, in playful terms. Jump her, harvest her and reboot/clean the parts from potential viruses and contaminated ichor to use too repair they're vee.
She was once dandys hight but the harvesting of twisted parts made her taller!
He's not happy about it.
Shelly: why did you change her?
Ok I get it, but just like dandy i struggled with her design as well, I was not able to get her shell head right i just couldn't, I tried i really did and her eyes also proved to be a struggle.
So i decided to take a different route with her, I would make her a snail instead, everything about her is still the same except her design.
As for lore wise for her missing leg is because of our favorite ankle biter.
Twisted Toodles.
And I feel like this version helps as to why she's the more forgotten toon, due to her being a bit creepy looking,( and her debut tape saying right off the bat that her real eyes are on the ones on top) kids did not like that, so they kept their distance from her, say for the few kids brave enough to call her they're favorite and appreciate her dinosaur facts.
I have her with one crutch but she use two don't worry.
