Have I mentioned I love drawing elaborate outfits?
It has taken me WAY too long to draw the hosts for Weapons Drawn. These two are very popular among fans, and it's easy to see why. Lord Tippet and the Narrator are a delight to listen to. Something I really appreciate is how they contrast and complement each other. The Narrator is always encouraging players to murder and knows everything that is going on. Lord Tippet is understandably horrified by your crimes and is in the dark the entire time. They have such great personalities, I can see why people love them so much!
I wanted their designs to contrast each other. Lord Tipper has blues while the Narrator has orange! Lord Tippet's outfit was pretty easy if a bit extravagant. I found an outfit I liked immediately and based his look off of that. Plus, I found another website for cute Lolita fashion!On the other hand, making the Narrator's outfit was a real challenge. No one makes dresses mixed with suit jackets, so I have to improvise with various designs I found on the internet. Even the process of making outfits had to be different for these two, huh? In the end, I LOVE how they came out. Another pair for the Jackbox Games line-up!
One, two, melatonin is coming for you
Three, four, baby, won't you lock the door?
Five, six, I'm done with this
Seven, eight, it's getting late, so close your eyes, sleep for days
Hush, little baby, drink your spoiled milk
I'm fucking crazy, need my prescription filled
Do you like my cookies? They're made just for you
A little bit of sugar, but lots of poison, too
So...I got bored. Here's a sketch of Green Detective (who I'm calling Elwood) with an accomplice (who I'll just dub as "Schmitty")
(No, I do not stan any of the detectives, I SWEAR!)
Aww... One not very good situation happened to me... I deleted the tumbler to think about my drawing style, but in the end I can't go to it... I thought about it and decided... That for your sake I will return my old style, but I will improve it.. And, I will post this post with hashtags about the jackbox so that they know about it... Wait for the art! ^^
At some point, I wanted to humanize some kind of living wheel and had headcanons that he has a Hawaiian shirt and he lives with his mother, even though he works...
Since I've gotten back into Jackbox Games, one new hostess that caught my attention was Laverne Caverne of The Poll Mine. I HAD to get to work on a design. I ADORE her voice, her quips are hella entertaining to listen to, and she's probably one of the more powerful hosts. She has her own version of the EYE OF SAURON for heaven's sake! Not to mention she happily lives in a cave FULL of monsters! Who knows how many people she's gotten killed in that cave! Maybe even more than [REDACTED].
Gushing aside, I felt like giving her a traditional witchy look, just with some added flare. It's hard to tell under all the shadow hands, but her dress has some layers to it. Her witch hat also has a little curl at the top. I'm sure I'll be drawing this lovely lady more often, so you guys will probably get a better look at her at some point. I made sure to add her special eye with her drippy pupil, complete with a little shine! I'm surprised more people haven't drawn this cave witch, she's easily one of my new favorites among the Jackbox crew.
If you like cannon Lord Tippet and the narrator, than who am i to hate you for it?! I personally don’t like them, and i’m not attacking you personally for liking them ether.
My problem with Weapons Drawn mostly stems from the dynamic...i tell you what i was so sad when i checked gameplay expecting to witness what i thought would be the most killer host dynamic yet and it turned out that my assumption was the complete opposite of what was actually in the game!
I mean come on someone who hosts parties while inviting killers with the hidden intention of causing a bloodbath while acting like the oblivious victim and a no-nonsense detective that’s way into her job and is suspicious of everyone yet completely believes all of the former’s lies without question sounds like a super dope dynamic right?
Heck i was so excited that i made designs for them RIGHT after i saw the trailer [back when i spent time and energy watching those] (and i still like my designs so much! I even make the most outrageous headcannons just so i can tolerate Weapons Drawn’s existence because of how disappointed i was & still am with the host dynamic!)
