#The TVAU is hard on her :(

I somehow forgot how fun Spider Bites is to draw ♥ (Patreon)

#Doodles #Just Desserts #Villainsona #Spider Bites #She is so fun to draw!! She is so cute!! I love her!! #How did I get her design So Right immediately uhghhgh save some for later past me lol - like for the TVAU! Come on! Lol #Honestly tho I just jkdflsafd I know she's designed exactly to my own tastes by design but her design balance! I love her! #Okay enough gushing for now lol (Never! Her stripes and glasses and four eyes and arms <3 <3) #There are actually Some things that I feel could use improvement lol - her legs being a standout #I wasn't very careful with her joints in some of my early doodles of her - I can't tell if she has two or three joints in her legs #Knee and ankle definitely but it almost looks like there's another joint in some of her early doodles! It's a bit hard to parse #She's very cute no matter what I think the extra joint Can look cool I'm just not sure what to do with it :0 #I like her anatomy to be a bit unique but how bend what bend?? I've never tried making a skeletal deconstruction of her design haha #Might be fun :) Weird skull - elbows - legs hehe #I still haven't drawn what her second set of eyes would look like it's a mystery to me as well #Silly stretchy in the middle there lol - stretching is a sign of affection! Haha #And a couple of the Queens since they appeared in one of her previous sets but have Actually been designed now! #Queen Charlotte has had the most noticeable design whatevers - additions and changes lol #She wears her hair in a bun in the EPAU :) It's harder to change her wife's look what with her having short hair to start haha #They're both a bit less smiley tho ouò It's a little more serious ♪ #Ending off and another design element that I'm not fully satisfied with around Spider Bites - her wings :P #I do like the idea of them being less stable than either individual Charm but completely disconnected from her body? Hmmm #Dunno dunno. Wanna give it a bit more thought and take another crack at it #She looks pleased tho hehe ♥ Very powerful! Very strong and capable! Self-confident! Love her ♪

Okay actually, the OG Just Desserts style was onto something (Patreon)

#Doodles #Villainsona #Just Desserts #And also ft. the last little bit of the WOY style attempts #They were what convinced me to look at the original style doodles! Looking for poses #I started just by going back to the early TVAU doodles to give one more proper fair shake to those rejected outfits #Wouldn't you know it they're still rejected lol but! The wings are still very good #And the poses are silly lol #She is always real cute tho <3 #It does feel funny going back to her early doodles and trying to style-match - my style was much looser at the time #Which is part of why her hair looks so good - those swirls are wild! It's very cool! But it's hard to replicate now :0 #You can kinda see it in how hard and dark the lines are in her hair - before it'd basically be a scribble nest haha #Both have their aesthetic placement I just hrmm #I miss it a bit #There's something almost uncanny about trying to go back now - sizing maybe? Proportions? I'm not sure #She was always meant to have that chibi proportion big head and simplified body so maybe it's her neck being so visible that's throwing me?? #I do like the small collar tho! It's gotten a little out of control lately haha ♪ Save that for alt outfits! #The weird shape of her hairline was a bit contributor to her overall hair shape as well - lots of little details! It's neat #That crying one has gotten two redraws now haha ironically not to actually ''improve'' just to dissect what's Up lol #I am happier with this one compared to the first redraw tho :D Her feet and ankles especially they actually make shape-sense! #And I have to admit the big flowery-bubble looking tops of her shoes it's very cute and the larger bonbons - proportions! Who knew lol #Her spinning the Staff was always one of my favourites hehe ♪ Confident and cheeky little Charm #Good for her

Hm ok what's your favorite or a really cool worlbuilding thing you've done? For any fandom or original or even an unimplemented idea

Hmm well at least in the past decade, my big worldbuilding projects have mostly come down to three-ish stories: Other Side of the Gun, Adventures of Gæilo and Ethon, and Just Desserts

OSG was an Invader ZiM fancomic concept I started around 2013 to justify every single Irken headcanon I ever came up with lol - I never finished it, or even really started it, but I put a lot of time and energy into its roughs back in the day :)

^A stick figure recap of Ch. 1, inspired by - what else - the Vargas stick figure recaps lol

One that you can see over here is all the work I did for my DnD campaign, AGE! (Though its sideblog hasn't been updated in a while haha - the AGE tag over here works just as well) I basically homebrewed a pantheon and had an absolute blast designing all the gods and their forms before they became gods and even things like architectural differences in their churches and the BBEG and his motivations and just ah <3 Such a fun project :D

It also laid the groundwork for things like Pokemon Homestyle, specifically all my papercrafts! You can really see how I leveled up haha

And my latest has been Just Desserts! Even with less time under its belt, it's still pretty expansive, as evidenced by my icon and theme and the backlog lol, and it's the one I have the most AUs of! (Though OSG does come close actually haha) There are still some thorny details I'm trying to iron out, especially to do with the magic system, but all the characters and creatures and the fact that I made my own fighting minigame, ah, pleased! I've never been so happy with a sona before Charm! ♥ From the very beginning it's been so fun to work on and I still want to improve!

#Long post #There have been others of course - things like BunBonBop and TMatM and quite a handful of original species lol #I was also involved in an IZRP that got very in depth which is where Bar comes from actually! #As well as my brief stint into being a TGWDLM askblog lol soz to everyone over there ouq #And little stories like Karera no Kotogara and Yanderapy but those mostly set in cartoon-reality y'know? #No magic or sci fi there haha #Man looking back through the OSG stuff kinda makes me wanna unstore Ch. 0 - I've grown a lot since then! #To the point where it almost doesn't feel ''mine'' anymore haha - it has been almost ten years! Maybe to celebrate its anniversary :) #Also yeah if you look hard enough I've been in love with and inspired by Vargas for as long as I've known about it haha #AGE was so much fun <3 I would like to get back to it someday but picking back up after so long is hard! #I still hold all of them fondly of course ♥ Mar especially since they were the tipping point for me loving spiders :D #It's hard to believe Just Desserts is already four years deep! It still feels so new to me haha #I know I big up Charm and her design a lot lol but for me it really is exactly what I want <3 It's my perfect :) #I still really want to get into 3D modeling to make her as I originally envisioned her! #If I had the funds I'd absolutely commission someone but tbh I don't know many names on that side of art haha #I've also heard about people who give advice/brainstorming sessions for magic systems and I've been intrigued ever since :0 #I'd love to sit down with someone and hash out Exactly how their magic works! It feels like it just needs a few more pushes! #Then again that's what I said about the TVAU outfits too haha ♪ Maybe it would all fall into place! #To the base question tho: I never know how to qualify ''implemented'' - does just putting it out there as a concept count? #Writing a story? Making a comic? A series? Polished? Completed?? Where's the line haha #I'm always so full of ideas but focusing on anything long enough to make it ''pretty'' is so hard for me still #I just keep creating never stopping haha

It’s so nice to be close, isn’t it? (Patreon)

#Doodles #Villainsona #Just Desserts #True Villainy AU #Two two-parters! Kind of! Lol #The first one definitely is! The second set is from a scratch comic but I thought this was the best part so far #We'll get there when we get there >:3c #To start we've got Taffy being overbearing on Wafer again lol #I also drew her way too small in the first one lol Wafer is like half her size but oops #She's still cute tho ♥ Littly waggy tail haha #She just constantly wants to headbutt and snuggle! Let Wafer groom himself lol #But then she's super freaked out by Barnaby I don't know why he's also very cute! #It's probably because they're both mammals - even tho Wafer's a predator and Taffy's prey he's still warm and familiar #Barnaby is room temperature and hard lol he smells funny! (He smells like mint of course lol) #Be nice to Barnaby Taffy he's just as good of a lad #And it's not like Charm hangs out more with Aria than with Coffee so *shrug shrug* #He also really needs a name lol - I did actually go on a naming spree it's just hard to remember since everyone still needs last names too #It'll get there lol #And then the second set ✨ #More TVAU but a little more directed into getting back on track to canon #Very similar to their fight in Classic - nothing like getting sludged again haha #She's Tired of you #Who would've thought that trying to fight her down and down and down would give her some amazing backbone when she finally pushes back #You reap what you sow fucker step up or get out #Oh he'll still try don't worry - she's just not taking it anymore #I am looking forward to the full version :)

#Doodles #Villainsona #The first one is relevant again because I am once again thinking about how much I love Mousey lol #It's always relevant because I always love Mousey but I'm not thinking of her 24/7 lol #It was just a random leftover for months and now it finally has room again ♪ #A little sad TVAU Villainsona 'cause why not - she was a spacefiller but didn't fit in with the rest of the set I was working on so :P #A stream doodle lol - post-stream technically #I don't know what it is about streaming but I can only describe my reaction as being Equalized #The highs are reigned in and the lows are lifted - neither manic nor depressive #It's kinda nice honestly I'd like to aim for more but I also don't want to accidentally break the mechanism by overusing it lol #TIRED! I was very tired I was underslept and worked hard and was around people for something like 10 hours #Introvert needs sleep and water pls and thank you #And then finally in my latest notebook yay ♥ It feels so good to have finally upgraded ahh #It probably won't last very long since I was limited in the number of pages I could a) make and b) fit on the wire #But I am looking forward to using it :D And I've got a new tool for when I make my next one!! So I'm looking forward to that too!! #Dug out an old shirt that has lovely heavy stretch material but it tends to hang nearly off my shoulders with how wide the neck is #Not exactly made for modesty #So I gave it a ponytail and it was both cuter and more comfortable so win win ✨ #More spider lamentations ouq I'll get one someday #I'm currently still on the hunt for substrate - I want to make sure it's clean and parasite free ouo Very important! #And then for the last one I cheated by a couple hours to give myself a one day page turnover for my first and second pages ♪ #It'd been a while and I was excited for my new notebook! I really was only a couple hours into the next day so it's very close anyhow #It just feels neat to have one day read like 1/1/22 and the next be 1/2/22 - shows inspiration ♪ Makes me happy

Now that’s a villain (Patreon)

#Doodles #Villainsona #Just Desserts #True Villainy AU #Have I mentioned that I made Cherry Shortcake specifically for whump purposes #Thus me being upset about how cute she turned out lol #She really does fit perfectly into the TVAU like - I'm quite happy that she's here to serve the Exact shape of a puzzle piece #Slowly chipping away closer and closer to Charm's TVAU outfit - still not completely happy with it especially the shirt #Feels like she needs something to break up the middle of her body a bit more but I'm not sure what :/ #I am enjoying her hair being down and having blurry Evil eyes still tho #Also Hella happy with how her word bubbles turned out this time hells yeah #Since I've figured/remembered how to draw Kaiein's word bubbles they just compliment hers so well #I think the first one and second to last are my favourites they way they just curl around the bubble ah #Spooky #I also had a lot of fun drawing Cherry Shortcake's eye differences - she usually had Gigantic eyes so little eyes was a fun play haha #And on the topic of that second to last one the perspective was so hard I had to erase her hands like five times egh #Had to pull out the mirror again to get some references but I feel like I mostly got there by the end yay #Story-wise: Charm probably held on to something innocuous Cherry Shortcake said at some point and decided to bring it up at the worst moment #As in when she was in Full Evil Time and a bad mood on top of it all lol #So CS probably doesn't actually know what she's talking about but Charm's not gonna listen to reason - she's looking for a specific answer #And she knows logically that she's not going to get it which is justification for staying angry about it #She's logical and manipulative Kaiein just made it worse
