#distinct characters?

[artichow]

what are ur oc’s beys like? :0 battle style, type, spirit, etc!!

oooh good question!!

Haruto: Mine is a Night Crow TR145HF/S, but I call it Raven. It's a stamina type bey, I don't battle much or have any time for it, really, but I guess I base my style on dodging strategies, especially in the first half of a fight. Raven uses it's perfomance tip to change it's speed very quickly and be almost impossible to hit, until the opponent loses it's speed. Although the fusion wheel doesn't deal much in attack, the spin track usually gives Raven enough momentum from the opponent's previous attack to push them very quickly out of bound. As for it's spirit, I noticed that Raven's spirit form's size depends on how much energy i put into a fight. It can go from an average sized crow to one of the size of... I don't know, like a lamp post I guess? It's pretty rare though.

(arti's note: I was originally gonna draw all three characters answering this question but I lost all my spoons very quickly so pls accept this messy unfinished sketch of Haruto showing his bey)

Shoyo: My beyblade is called Forbidden Actaeo. He has an spin track just like Hyoma's Aries, an Eternal Defense 145 track, and a Coated Stamina performance tip, like Masamune's Striker has. I'd say my battling style is pretty interchangeable, though I prefer to play on avoidance most of the time. Actaeo is very fast, and he often plays on his performance tip to stop in his tracks and strike from a different direction. His stamina and defense stats are very good, and his attacks are reinforced by the high speed he manages to maintain during fights. It's a really good balance type, I always manage to get out of sticky situations thanks to his resourcefulness! Though... there are some aspects of him that I have yet to be familiar with... Or want to use. But that's not important, sorry. His spirit is a deer, he actually has changed a lot, it's like he's been growing alongside me! Now he has antlers, and more hair around his neck too! Though sometimes his eyes look like a whole other animal... But- I must be imagining things. It seems he's not done transforming, it's a little scary but I guess... also exciting.

(actual drawing of Actaeo from earlier this year, I'd like to change the facebolt design again tbh but the overall appearance is still the same!)

Tatsuki: Arti didn't chose anything for me yet :D (I'm thinking a parrot bey, either attack or balance)

#thanks for the ask!!! it was a ton of fun to answer #i didn't put that much thoughts into their answers but i want to try and give them different voices like have them talk like #distinct characters? #arti talks #mfb oc #beyblade oc #shoyo beloved #haruto beyblade #tatsuki beyblade

it's a small thing but something i've noticed about Witch From Mercury is that this is probably the highest amount of plus-sized women i've seen in a single anime

#gwitch #the witch from mercury #mobile suit gundam #mobile suit gundam the witch from mercury #Nyla Bertran #Lilique Kadoka Lipati #Belmeria Winston #the woman who talks to miorine in episode 2 isn't named but i have a feeling we may see her again #EDIT I WAS RIGHT #Feng Jun #also there's the Peil CEOs but i wouldn't really... count them as distinct characters #g witch

Hi it's just to let you know that the official romanization of Revaan's name is Raverne ! Also they have romanized Baul's name to Baur !

Twst coming back at us again with the least expected romanization! thank you everybody (oh god my inbox) (no it's great, I literally asked for this and the reactions have been INCREDIBLE, thank you all!)

I do like Raverne though, I think it's got a nice fancy sound to it! (I had kinda suspected it was going to be an R instead of an L, so the fact that it's SO close to Laverne except for that is hilarious to me personally.) and Dragoneye Duke is honestly probably the best translation for his title, I wasn't envying the localizers that one. :') Baur instead of Baul I was NOT expecting, but in retrospect I think his name's supposed to be a reference to the Bauru crocodile, so that actually makes way more sense!

someone else also said Meleanor has become Maleanor, which is the REALLY weird one to me, because I was so surprised it was written as Mel instead of Mal in the first place?! oh god no I can't decide which one I like better. 😭 (I wonder if they might change it to Mal...they have made romanization changes before) (like I remember House of Distraction being corrected to House of Destruction in Playful Land) (I did check and she's still Mel for now, but I dunno, they might Mal her up and some point and save me from having to make a decision about which one to use) (HECK I CAN'T DECIDE)

uhhhh thank you for letting me ramble about anime names, let's just say MONOGRAMMED SWEATERS FOR EVERYONE

#twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 part 4 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 part 4 spoilers #mel is so cute but mal fits with the rest of the draconias better #eng version no you were supposed to save me not make things MORE confusing #anyway raverne huh #that uh. that sure feels like it's supposed to evoke raven doesn't it. #what does it mean WHAT DOES IT MEAN #hold on i'm going to flail around embarrassingly about anime character theories now #(okay first a disclaimer: i do think we need to sit down as a fandom at some point) #(and have a discussion about exactly what is actual canon versus meta speculation versus jokes) #(because i think there has been. some confusion. over that re:crowley and raverne specifically) #(but i do feel justified in being like THEY ARE PROBABLY CONNECTED SOMEHOW RIGHT?! right now) #like i really don't think it's as simple as crowley being raverne but with memory loss or something #(and if they pull that on us i'm going to need an EXTREMELY good explanation to go with it to justify that) #they've gone out of their way several times now to make a point about them acting and sounding different and it feels very intentional to m #(and once again: i super 100% absolutely do not believe that lilia wouldn't recognize him with the top half of his face covered) #i just think the contradictions are a lot stronger than the connections right now but there ARE some connections and i'm 👀ing at them #to be fair the connections are mostly meta like crowley being diablo/raverne being evocative of raven #also the general 'raverne mysteriously disappeared and apparently had distinctive eyes' thing #versus 'crowley's past is unknown and he never shows his eyes' #(i will argue that crowley DOES seem to have some kind of canon connection to briar valley) #(since he is clearly some sort of fae and the masks are a briar valley thing) #and that is kinda it right now isn't it #okay hold on i had to delete some tags because i used too many (thanks tumblr for letting me know and not just vanishing them OH WAIT) #so tl;dr: i'm in the 'crowley is connected to raverne somehow but it's more complicated than just him being in disguise' camp personally #but that will probably change as we get more info and also don't take this as an anti-speculation thing because i love theories HOORAY

it's SO funny that when asked what he had to do to prepare for his role in IWTV Sam Reid says he had to learn how to play the piano, learn to speak French, Italian, and English with a French accent. Bailey read IWTV religiously and added her own comments, and kept an actual fucking journal she wrote entirely as Claudia. meanwhile Jacob Anderson, when asked the same question, just responds with “oh nothing, i was already emo”. icons and legends only

#I LOVE THEM SO FUCKING MUCH YOU DONT UNDERSTAND #JUST TO BE CLEAR #I don't think Jacob didn't put a lot of effort into his Louis he's an incredibly talented actor and makes Louis everything he shouldve been #he's legit amazing and the way you as a viewer get a very clear sense of who Louis is and what's he like IMMEDIATELY after meeting him #not to mention how fucking HARD it is to play a deeply repressing character without making them feel actually emotionless. #and Jacob fucking nails it #NOT TO MENTION THE AMERICAN ACCENTS????? TWO DISTINCT ACCENTS THAT ARE BOTH SO PLAUSIBLE I WAS SHOCKED TO LEARN HE'S FUCKING BRI'ISH? #I JUST THINK HIS RESPONSE IS FUCKING HILARIOUS #IWTV #Jacob Anderson #Bailey Bass #Sam Reid #interview with the vampire #iwtv cast #amc iwtv #my posting #wow it's been a while #3rd degree failpost #didn't even notice this broke 1k 😭😭😭

Train dragons this, plane dragons that - what about bus dragons?

#dragon #no clue what to tag this as tbh #my designs #character designs #my art #smash-chu's art #doodles #based on västtrafik busses here in sweden cause those are the ones i take and see most often #the blue is very distinct imo

I haven’t watched Dungeon Meshi, but I always enjoy the dashboard osmosis experience and have a peculiar visual memory. Here is what I believe Dungeon Meshi to be mostly about. No complicating experiences with the text, or indeed character references, fed into this extremely clear vision, which I believe I torrented directly from the astral plane at the same time as the creator was logged on

#dungeon Meshi #I think #features Bilbo #This GUY #and Meshi. #this isopod is mostly what I wanted to be doodling. #interesting to me that #the hobbit’s scarf and jerkin are very clear in my memory #and also the Skyrim helmet #but no idea what This Guy is actually wearing so I think I THINK it’s very cunty bishop #sleeves. you know like lantern sleeves. #I love them actually #it’s interesting what you absorb from #scrolling the dash passively when mutuals are into a new #thing #feels a bit like how AI must feel when consuming and regurgitating content! #also it’s obvious that the creator(s?) have developed a VERY visually distinctive character set that can be picked up on instantly #super unusual for anime right? normally they all have the same face? #so it’s quite cool to scroll past an anime with distinctly different faces in it #not to mention body types

my argument for adaine with glasses is that what else is she going to fiddle with when she earnestly says things like "um actually you can't carbon date trilobites" and what else is she going to wipe blood off of whenever she kills someone and what else is she going to leer down incredulously at you through whenever you ask her about your future. you have to consider these incredibly important things

#fantasy high #its not adaine without glasses #and in terms of character design it makes a bigger distinction between her and aelwyn #theyre sisters yes but theyre also very different people separately

Want them to be happy too! #It might seem silly for these - how many sets in now? - to still be getting used to drawing them again lol but it's because they're adults! #Their clothes and the way they hold themselves - but also especially Sans lol I dunno why I have such difficulty with him at times #He's got a cute face and I still find myself like ????how your face #Other than that tho it's just silliness hehe ♪ My favourite lads :D #I feel the need to make the distinction: I do actually have different favourites based on the AU lol #Like for example in classic I still love Flowey just a tiiiiiny bit more than Papyrus but it really is constantly neck and neck #Whereas in Handplates it's no competition even a little bit lol - Papyrus is just my Very Favourite #But Gaster is my favourite Handplates-specific character since he's unique to the AU! It gets a bit in the weeds lol #Sans isn't far behind at all of course the trio are very important! The duo even moreso imo #Going back to gloves tho I did carry over one of my quirks from my original UT doodles about Papyrus' gloves lol #I initially envisioned them as combination mitten-gloves with a free index finger and all the rest together #I still rather like the design! But it is admittedly not Handplates accurate lol #The occasional dip into self-indulgence who me? Lol #Sleeping on each other is important to me as well!! It is such a favourite hehe #Honestly I just imagined Papyrus getting so exhausted that he fell asleep in the snow lol poor lad #Sans teleported in but it's also funny to imagine him just walking up like ''you good? yeah he's fine'' *flop* haha #Silly lads <3 Do love 'em ♪

been listening to her songs lately!! they're a blessing

#persona #p3p #persona 3 #I really like soul phrase #it really shows how kind her character is... #it's pretty clever how they show how different femc and mc's approach is towards everything that's going on through their songs #not too different in the core probably.. but distinct enough from each other #guess that was the whole point of p3p #she also got one of the best songs in Q2 ;v; #doodle

An interim comic! Rewinding to the first time my Shep met Garrus while I work on the next part. I'm halfway done the planning stage, but I needed to take a break and do something 'simpler' for a bit (this doesn't have BGs so it counts in my mind ok).

For anyone who doesn't know it, the song in Shepard's head

Also as a heads up, while I generally try to keep Shepard's appearance vague in any comic where I can get away with it, I'll be tagging any comics where she's definitively my Shepard with #SharkyShepard.

Nervous Machete from my class notes!

we were learning about the spread of christianity.

.

#he seems very concerned about the spread of christianity #I never thought about this but are you guys out there in class and work drawing Machetes from memory? #if that's the case you have good visual memory this has such distinct likeness #another excellent specimen to add to my collection of tiny margin/scrap paper/post-it note Machetes #thank you! #gift art #wacky-nameless-inventor-24 #own characters #Machete

hotel manager

#zeno's art #i'm not sure if i should tag the show itself as i'm not a fan but i guess its “fan”art so i will #hazbin hotel #charlie hazbin hotel #vivziepop #i was bored and wanted to draw something #my main goal here was to create a design that looked distinct and could (potentially) be moderately easy to animate #of course based on charlie's character i added as many angel images as possible through the hair and bowtie #(i know white on white is a character design sin but i wanted to show the angel wing detail ;w;) #also to express the personality and juxtaposition of a sweet devil her horns are supposed to curve into a heart shape #of course the garterbelts are upside-down/st peters crosses because of her satanic themes #i also tried to go harder into the goat theme but its still subtle i think #i actually think the goat theme is really interesting because of the story of the sheep and the goats in the bible #but i cant remember if it was actually something intended in her original design #i'm not going to draw anyone else so dont even anticipate that #this was basically a cooldown? ok i think i'm rambling now #goodbye #ok edit to say it clearly: i am not a fan of vivziepop or her work. i just wanted to redesign charlie as a cooldown/exercise for fun #because i used to be a fan of the character before i wised up about what vivzie had and has done #and before i matured and noticed the cracks and fundamental flaws in her works #so yea i dont support her at all and this redesign is critical i guess #also the reason why the tag “vivziepop” is there in the first place is so that anyone who has that tag silenced can scroll past #without seeing anything related to her work. in case that clears anything up #its the same reason why i tag “long post” and “food” and the like

we don't talk enough about the off-hand note in TLH where Jason says one of his titles is "Consul to demigods"

and it's like. never elaborated on. what does "consul to demigods" entail? what does that mean. Was his pontifex maximus title actually completely redundant because he was already supposed to be the proxy between Camp Jupiter and the gods? But also it's not consul of Camp Jupiter, it's consul to demigods in general. What does it mean?

#pjo #riordanverse #jason grace #if the pontifex maximus thing is redundant it wouldnt be the first time in HoO that Rick totally messed up a character's foundations #cause he just. forgot. #shoutout to stuff like hazel being introduced cussing like a sailor and explicitly said to cuss a lot #then going to hazel being shocked around swearing at all. for some reason. #or leo having a very distinct defined faux persona that by the end of the series is forgotten and just treated like his actual personality #and THIS is why you make a series bible. to keep stuff like this consistent.

Been having fun drawing characters a bit more stylized than usual

bonus: The Satori from when i tried to draw her in the Professor Layton artstyle that probably started this

i'll finish this satori and the other characters i wanted to draw in the layton style... someday

#Drawing characters more exaggerated makes it easier to draw them looking more distinct later i think #Also its fun to focus on the shapes you associate with each character #Kasen Ibaraki #Reimu Hakurei #Sakuya Izayoi #Youmu Konpaku #Touhou project #yukari is triangle kasen is circle okina is square. in my mind. #Satori Komeiji
