One thing that has really interested me as of late has been the development of the Miraculous Shanghai special. Looking at all the old promo art, it seems to have changed a lot. For starters, it was originally called "The Chinese Legend" and was seemingly going to have Master Fu in it

(Makes me wonder if it was initially going to relate to the Order of the Guardians in some way since it doesn't give a clear location)

Also, it seems that there was going to be what appears to be a spirit dragon that looks like it would've played a major role with how often it appears in promo art

On top of that, when I went to the Wiki to get those images, I found these

And I honestly don't know what to say about them other than that the New York special influence was strong.

I could definitely see that the Shanghai Special was potentially more about the Order and Fu. Makes sense given it's related to China. And if it potentially would've been an exploration on Fu, his origins, and on the Order.

Which makes me wonder what the earlier plan was, especially as it doesn't feel like they really had sentimonsters planned from the start, and I don't know about you guys, but I didn't like Fu's origins. So I wonder if they had something else in mind and made changes. As with most of ML's concepts, those ideas were probably better.

As I do think the Chinese Special should've been the place to reveal and introduce the Zodiac Miraculous and where they came from (as it didn't make Fu look good having 16-17 Miraculous and gave out the very two HM wanted), that dragon could've been a protector of them, seeking a worthy Guardian to take on the Zodiac. Could even be the dragon kwami spiritually manifested. Which a whole Zodiac of powerful Miraculous sealed away makes more sense than the Prodigious that just has you transforming into 8 animals, which you can't even control unless you're virtuous. Very dangerous indeed.

Or that dragon it could've been a rare instance of just seeing another magical creature, work off Thomas' older claim that there was other magic out there than just Miraculous.

As for the heroes, I am kinda glad they didn't make it in. I don't like those designs. I can roll with the idea that every country/state/city could have their own hero, but they really do just roll out too much.

Speaking of Specials, I remember that, supposedly, that we were going to see the Turtle's power in the Christmas Special, and hearing that Chris Master was the original Christmas Special, I wonder if that was originally where we were supposed to see Carapace for the first time, and Nino was going to be the first temporary hero to be seen. And that would've been his time to really shine. Though it also could've been our first intro to Jade, seeing what Turtle could do in a fight, and potentially Chat's way of meeting Fu (though as Jade instead), and maybe that's the point where Fu's like, ok, I really am too old for this, you guys do temp heroes.

Either option sounds better than what we got in canon.

Hello I would like to know if there is any concept art with Marietta from Ladybug:Mini Menace

Hello there! There sure is! You certainly came to the right place! The annoying bit is how Tumblr only lets me go to 10 photos so I'm going have to be picky here. I have some Mini Menace covers. Now, as far as I'm aware, Thomas Astruc drew all of these and I must say he's a very talented artist! (Yes, I can compliment him too). I like seeing his art. And this is technically "not his best" stuff, if you want to go there. Since he's grown a lot since this and he already seemed to be pretty good at reference drawing. All the Mini Menace covers are spoofs on popular comic covers. Of course, I wouldn't expect anything less from someone who started out as a storyboard artist. So anyway, here are some of my favorites:

This next one is a fun one because it hints at Marietta's origins. Originally her father was meant to die and she was supposed to be a vigilante. She seemed to have got her powers, or her inspiration at least, from the necklace that her father died with:

And this next one seems to follow directly after it where she decides to become Ladybug and get revenge on the people who murdered her father. Eventually she was going to become a vigilante:

This one is just cute and I thought it would be fun to share because Miraculous season 4 actually makes a reference to this cover, specifically:

I love this next one the most. It's one of my absolute favorites:

Now this one is extra fun as this hints at the relationship between her and her Chat Noir. See, Marietta's original Chat Noir was supposed to be a mentor figure for her, much like Master Fu. A vigilante before the Ladybug. It looks like in this cover he has discovered her identity and she's trying to deny it but she knows she's been caught. It almost appears as if she's getting scolded:

Here's her using what I imagine is either one of her powers or her gadgets:

And, here, of course is a full-body action pose of Marietta's Ladybug from right when the show was probably picked up. This, I don't believe, was drawn by Astruc, but I could be wrong. But this is where it all truly began, I imagine:

Now, there isn't a whole lot more, but I do have a few more covers saved. Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot on Marietta. She shifts into Marinette very quickly after this, then goes through that "Bridgette" (I put this in quotes not to disrespect it, I actually very much love this name, it just isn't an official name used for her) phase, before coming right back to Marinette.

Thank you for asking about her! I had fun digging through my files! And lucky enough for you I had already organized my files a bit a week before this just to make sure I could find this stuff easier. Come to me any time about the concepts! I'm very happy to talk about them! Hope you're having a wonderful day, afternoon, evening, night, or whatever time it is where you are!

you should find another guiding light, guiding light, but i shine so bright~ // adrien agreste doodle

#i listened to dear reader and well #me: you have a lot of things to do you should focus!!#brain: do you mean: get suddenly inspired and do your bi-monthly drawing?#by doodle i mean i just threw in a whole concept and didnt bother with the rendering #my art #miraculous ladybug #adrien agreste #also i had to manually lasso all the window frames to blur the bg because i refuse to paint in separate layers #(i am forgetful and disorganized)#angst #<- my strange addiction #i also didnt bother with rendering the ads but that was purposeful and it has meaning and it definitely doesnt mean that i just got lazy #something something our boy is detailed the ads are all abstract #the bg is why i will never pursue architecture

AU where Adrien (and Félix) are both transfem and their transformation to Chat Noire (and Argos) appear feminine - with a slightly higher pitched voice to match. Adrien doesn't understand at first, she is like "oh so that's what the magic does to hide my identity, especially since I'm so well known out of costume. Neat" and then probably, like, too-long-later down the line she is like Oh. Oh okay. Im a girl

heres more of this concept

#this concept has been haunting me for weeks #i wouldve colored it or something but its so late and im half asleep #so forgive me. this will Have to do #miraculous adrien #adrien agreste #chat noir #cat noir #chat noire #cat noire #fem!adrien agreste #fem!chat noir #miraculous ladybug #ml egg au #quantum egging au

I mean younger version of Chat Noir from "Mini menace" who wears black hat with cat's ears!?

Hello! Sorry, this took a bit. Life got busy and I was trying really hard to figure out how I would tackle this... So I decided that I wanted to respect the history of the Mini Menace covers and used some heavy reference to get the dynamic poses I wanted to sort of match the covers. Though my art style is really not much like Astruc's beyond just sketchy. I did trace the title cover and little stamp in the corner and barcode at the bottom. I just want to make that clear. I wanted those to be as accurate as possible. Though I did change the little Ladybug stamp to look less like she is flipping the bird and more like it's just her pointer finger. That just isn't my style. I pulled the red directly from the Mini Menace comics because it needed a little spice otherwise it kind of blended together. I also resized the canvas to match the size of the Mini Menace covers. I think I sort of figured out Marietta's hair but I don't think I figured out the skirt at all. Anyway, hope it's to your liking:

And, you may not be able to tell, but yes, I did give her Ladybug spotted nails. It's a reference to another cover. I imagine their dynamic is over-protective big sister and rather annoying but caring little brother. I like to think the Le Chat Noir (the mentor) she used to know is gone either due to passing away or stepping down. And some new kid took up the mantle and much like Le Chat Noir with her, she thinks of him as immature and completely out of his element. I also like to imagine Marietta is not one to just stand idly by even in civilian form. She has to do something to help even if that's risking revealing her secret. Thank you so much for the ask! I had so much fun! I hope you are having a wonderful day, afternoon, evening, night, or whatever time it is where you are!
