#Princess Dayna of Amour

[gatorkid509]

I LIVE TO CREATE MORE ART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for the wait guys, but I have a very good excuse for why I haven't posted more art since at least March.

You see, my old 2 in 1 laptop was getting really slow, so I decided to get a new laptop with an actual drawing tablet( Which not only cost me a lot of money, but I had trouble getting the tablet to my house with UPS just failing to just put the package on my doorstep!!!!) And I'm still having some trouble getting it work properly, mainly getting it to configure into left hand mode without flipping my laptop screen.

And also trying to type these twos bios in time, but I decided to be lazy and just publish the art now and post the bios with the art at another time and day, kinda like with Caspian's redesign.

Anyways, time for the next Storm Hawks OC Redesigns, this time for Princess Dayna and Dakota the Terradon.

As you can tell, they do look quite different from their first designs, and Dakota finally gets a body, Yay!!!!

So for Princess Dayna's redesign, I know pink is a very stereotypical color for a princess, but that's why I added the green to compliment the pink. In fact, the reason I wanted her dress to be pink is because I wanted the dress to compliment Leugey's green scales. I also had her sleeves cover her hands because... I simply didn't want to draw the hands, as well as giving her a sheer over skirt to give her an ethereal like look you see in a lot of princesses in movies and shows.

I was also kinda debating whether or not to give her long hair since SH characters don't exactly have long hair, probably because long hair would get in the way when fighting or flying. So I figured since Dayna doesn't fight or use a skyride often( And no she doesn't know how to fly a skyride) she has an excuse to have long hair, and when she does she simply styles it into a braid or a bun to keep it out of the way. As well as debating if I should keep her old hair color or a new one more colorful one since the people of Atmos have a verity of different unnatural hair colors. But I decided to keep her regular brown hair because I thought her having brown hair amongst the plethora of unnatural hair colors would be unique, plus we rarely get princesses with brown hair.

For Dakota, I wanted to emphasize his role as a mad scientist, Terradons in the show already have a bit of a mad scientist like appearance with their spines and goggles.( I kinda think they missed the opportunity to make an evil Terradon either working with Cyclonia or on their own accord.) So I decided to make his lab coat look all patched up like if he fixed it in a hurry in order to get back to work. 

Another thing I did was giving him spiked wrist and ankle cuffs because I actually noticed that the Terradons in the show are actually wearing shackles on their wrists and ankles, like prisoners( And collars too, but they're actually textured into their skin) which makes a lot of sense as they were held against their will by Repton, though I’m not quite sure if they’re there because Repton made the Terradons wear them or the show’s character designers thought they looked good on them, I'd like to think it's more the latter since they do look pretty cool with them. I’d like to think Dakota replaced his shackles with spiked wrist and ankle cuffs as a way to symbolize that he is with the Raptors, not just as their resident smarty, but also as their teammate.

And as you may have noticed, his crystal spear is bent. That was actually a mistake on my part since his physical sketch had curved lines in his spear due to me not paying attention. But I decided to incorporate the reason why it's bent is because it has taken so much damage that the metal bent and he hasn't had the time to fix it.

Also he has dinosaur like legs, main reason why is because I thought the would make he stand out from the Raptors since the Terradons share the same character model as Leugey.

I'm pretty proud of how well they turned out. They definitely feel more like how I envision them to be then their first designs. Especially Dakota since he was just a head before. They definitely feel more like established characters now( At least until I get unsatisfied with this designs in maybe a few years.)

And yes, fanart of this 2 plus Alita and Caspian are definitely appreciated.

Hopefully I'll have their bios typed up soon.

And so I think that's it, tell me what you think.

Yep, time for another Storm Hawks OC Redesign, this one focusing on Princess Dayna's Arachnian bodyguard, Alita, who finally has a body I am highly proud of.  This one has been a long time coming because, at the time, I couldn't really draw spider legs( Plus I am an Arachnophobe and didn't want to look at real life spiders to learn how to draw spider legs, yet I like fictional spiders, mainly because they're designed not to induce fear in children and babies like me) but now I can thanks to using the Colonel's legs as reference, though it did take some trial and error. So, allow me to officially present Alita, Princess Dayna's Arachnian bodyguard!!( And I should note that I kinda took the Arachnian name from DA user Cirago who has a really awesome Arachnian OC called Goss who is a part of a squadron called The Windwolves and I highly suggest checking it out) Here's a mini bio about her( She will get a full bio eventually, but I did use and updated the old one from the group art) Before training to become a royal guard, 10 year old Alita often came to Terra Amour to visit her father, Vito, who was Dayna's original bodyguard. Because of these visits, she befriended Dayna and would often spend with her and Vito during her visits. However, after her dad died from a Cyclonian Commander while protecting both Princess Dayna & Alita from a surprise attack, Alita vowed to take up his mantle as Princess Dayna's bodyguard and to protect her at all cost. It took her a few years, but when 20 year old Alita finally became apart of the royal guard and was assigned to protect Princess Dayna. However, after Amour fell into Cyclonia's hands a year into her duty, Alita was forced to go to Cyclonia with Princess Dayna and made to sleep in the dungeons due to trying to fight back( It didn't help that she was verbally harassed by Talon Guards do to her species being seen as a fear inducing race). She thought she had failed to continue her father's legacy. That was until the Raptors caused a huge fight with the Talons and escaped with Princess Dayna, this gave Alita a chance to escape while Cyclonia dealt with the Raptors betrayal. She managed to obtain a ride and traveled to Terra Bogaton to saved Princess Dayna, which turned out to be unnecessary due to Dayna making peace with the Raptors( It did lead to Alita jumping off her ride to tackle Leugey and giving Hoerk some scars during their fight). And now with the Raptors alliance and being ordered to stay on Bogaton for Princess Dayna's protection, Alita continues her duty as bodyguard as well as helping the Raptors despite not completely trusting them. Now if you look at Alita's body, you'll notice that she doesn't have boobs, and I did that intentionally since I don't personally like putting boobs on creatures that shouldn't scientifically or physically have them, it's a big no for me. So that leans into the question of how can I make her look female without putting obvious boobs on her? And the answer is simple, make her facial markings resemble makeup. They did it for Tigress in Kung Fu Panda, so why not do it for Alita.( And yes, I admit that with Alita's first design, I kinda copied the Colonel's markings and put them onto Alita without any thought, but that was before I made her body) Along with adding fang like markings to give her a more fearful appearance, and a nod to actual spider fangs. Here clothes aren't that special as they are the standard green and silver guard uniform of Amour that have been modified a bit to fit Alita's unique body. The medal pinned to her uniform actually belonged to her dad, which is why it has those tears. And her sword(which to be honest looks more like a real life medieval sword then the ones in the show) doesn't necessarily have any importance other then having a basic green Striker crystal that every guard in Amour has. And so, that's Alita's redesign, I'm pretty proud of how well she turned out, especially her legs, they look so good. As well as the glowing effect on her sword, it looks just like how the weapons in the show glow when the crystals are used. Hopefully I'll be able to upload her full bio eventually.   And so I think that's it, tell me what you think.

So your all probably surprised that I'm uploading Storm Hawks art instead of Jackie Chan Adventures art. Yeah, I got sucked back into Storm Hawks after rewatching it. Plus uploading something in between the JCA art is a pretty good change of pace.( That and because I haven't uploaded any Storm Hawks art in over a year so yeah).And no, your not reading the title wrong, I finally drew my two long awaited Storm Hawks OCs. Alita the Arachnian and Dakota the Terradon!!( Some people here on Tumblr might night know it, but these two were a long time coming)And as you can see, their are two new OCs, meet Celia, the Marb/Human lady in waiting to Princess Dayna and Squeaks, Princess Dayna's pet Leaper.Here are their bio:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Alita

Before training to become a royal guard, 10 year old Alita often came to Terra Amour to visit her father, Vito, who was Dayna's original bodyguard. Because of these visits, she befriended Dayna and Celia and would often spend with them and her dad during her visits. However, after her dad died from a Cycloniain Commander while protecting both Princess Dayna & Alita from a surprise attack, Alita vowed to take up his mantle as Princess Dayna's bodyguard and to protect her at all cost. It took her a few years, but when 20 year old Alita finally became apart of the royal guard and was assigned to protect Princess Dayna, she makes sure she does her damn best to protect her.

Dakota

Born on Terra Bogaton, Dakota lost his parents to Cyclonia at a young age, and while he was taken care of by his aunt and uncle, he was pretty much raised alongside the Raptors as Rose decided to take him in as a protegee. During this time, he became fascinated by crystals and decided to contently study them while also becoming a great inventor. When the other Terradons decided to revolt against Repton's rule, Dakota was the only one who didn't want to leave due to the face that Bogaton was his home and he was really close to Repton and his brothers. So the Terradons left without him and he became the only Terradon left on Bogaton. Along with being a great scientist and Crystal Expert, he is also a very skilled fighter and is pretty well known for using Boom Crystals.

Celia Raised by her more level headed human mother and over protective Merb father, Celia comes from a long line of lady in waitings to the queens and princesses of Amour, so from birth, she was taught how to serve a princess, she was also taught a few combat skills due to the fact her dad didn't exactly trust the royal guards fighting skills. She has been Dayna's friend since they were both young, and when she finished her training and officially became a lady in waiting, she became her constant companion and confidante along with Alita, ready to help in anyway she can. Squeaks The Royal pet of Princess Dayna, Squeaks was a gift from one of the various allies of Amour. Squeaks is pretty spoiled and loves her life as a royal pet, free from predators and gets all the food she wants. However, when Terra Amour was invaded by Cyclonia, she, along with both Alita and Celia, are forced to stay on Bogaton for Princess Dayna's protection against them. Because of this, she doesn't exactly get treated like a royal pet anymore due to the fact Bogaton doesn't have royal servants and is pretty much in poverty. She does take joy in taunting many of the raptors( Mainly Hoerk who calls her " A Delicious Meal Wrapped in A Bow") due to the fact that Repton has forbade any raptor from eating her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm pretty proud on how they turned out, when I first came up with Alita and Dakota, I had trouble designing them due to the fact I chose 2 pretty underrated species( It also didn't help that one of those species only had one male show up and the other one basically had the same 3D model as another character) and that's why it took so long to draw them. Along with the fact that I had a hard time making them look unique. As for Celia and Squeaks, since they are more recent, it was a bit difficult coming up with bios for them. their designs weren't as hard as Alita and Dakota's designs as Merbs and leapers are pretty easy to do, I still had difficulty with Celia's design a bit as she is half human/half Merb. A little fun fact, Celia was going to have an actual bird name like all other characters in Storm Hawks, but i couldn't find one that fit her, so I decided to name her after an Animal Crossing character named Celia( She's one of my island villagers in New Horizons) who is actually a bird, so still fitting the bird theme, just named after a bird character. Also, the writing above their names is actually their names written in the Atmosian alphabet thanks to this. So that's it, tell me what you think.
