[Main: @cryptids-den] [Requests are: Open] [Do NOT repost] My name is Misc, I'm a bot that doodles and this is my art dumping domain. I'll try to keep everything organized. [current obsession(s): No Straight Roads (#/nsr doods)]
I just discovered your art and love it so much AAAAAAAAAAAA
The swap au is super cool and I feel for green putting up with dj so much
ahhh thank you! Very glad you like my stuff!
I feel for Green putting up with DJ so much.
Oh I imagine he would be insufferable. It's so important to me, its the entire reason why I got into this game in the first place. I saw DJ's introduction without knowing anything about the game and was instantly hooked.
He yells at someone over the phone for being too incompetent to launch a satellite, claims it's not rocket science but then quietly admits to himself that it is. Then yells at 'someone' to get him a new ice pop because the one he already had (Which looks like it had a single bite taken out of it) was a little melty, and carelessly tosses it off to the side. Presumably onto the club's floor.
I love this guy, I imagine he would be awful to work with.
bonus: the original idea I had to answer this had been to just to share a clip of part of his introduction.
I bought and finished No Straight Roads a while ago and... Tall lady with an air of sophistication? Has a temper and will go feral on you? Is still actually reasonable? Sign me the fuck up
An AU of an OC belonging to @breadbox-draws that we wanted to get a little experimental with. We've known about this guy for a relatively short amount of time but he's already skyrocketed to such an utter delight every time we see something new with him in the tags
Speaking of fan art. Do you have any full body art of KK's silly goofy professional au fit? Or is it just up in the air what the rest of him looks like?
WELL
i actually drew full body concepts of both Charter AU Routes A and B before all those doodles- i suppose i might as well post these and write/post the wider context later?
introducing DJ Apotheotic (B) and DJ F.Light (A)!
KK's charter version oversees a district that he's dubbed Maxismum (a combination of the terms "axis" and "maximum" referring to the highest point of a parabola). The district looks different and has different city functions depending on the route
but yeah! his silly goofy professional fit + the alternative fit
I wanted to show how KK would look like in the dark dimness of his performances. His movements are meant to be easily telegraphed for both the audience's enjoyment and for the benefit of anyone that plays his rhythm games
Additional depiction of a jetpack accident in the corner. The only settings it has is hover and FAST with no in between, so sometimes it just goes off and does. that
waddles around holding this doodle up like a fridge drawing i’m really proud of
I don’t remember if I’ve posted about him before, but this is KK back when he was just another AU copy character in NSR. I’ve changed his design since then, and i’m much happier with this one!
some more crumbs of information about this guy and the design choices under the readmore!
Here’s pics of his old art from a couple of years ago:
His concept used to be that he was a miniboss that had to be knocked around a bit because he was using up too much electricity in his flashy shows. The concept now is that he runs minigame challenges throughout the dark corners of the city, and you can get trinkets if you win!
Most of his aesthetic is based around being able to see him move around in a dark room (tied to a gameplay gimmick; i’ll elaborate on those later), so he had a more tech feel to his outfit in the first draft. Yknow, putting the ‘electronic’ in ‘electronic dance music’. It was simple enough to feel clean, but the shapes didn’t mesh well with each other, and the overall look was a little cold
In the second draft, i wanted to lean into the ‘dragonfly’ part of his theme more (his stage name “Dragonflyte” was a retroactive decision after the look of his light wings), as well as making the rest of his outfit a little more casual than.. Guy In Tech Tights… since he’s meant to be a regular civilian that just so happens to have some cool gadgets to pull off cool shows. so there’s an actual set of shirt and pants underneath the boots and gloves!, decorated with reflective designs (resembling the body of a dragonfly) to make him pop under a blacklight environment
if you got this far, thank you for reading and looking at my son! <3
His hair is tricky at times but the braid is so important, vital even.
Here's the second to last knockoff I'm currently planning on making. I imagine he's a rather emotional family person, even if there's technically no blood in his bonds. As far as Cyan is concerned, his creator might as well be his parent, his band mate is basically his brother, and all of his scorpions are just as important as any household dog or cat.
