Alternative question to the one you answered earlier:
How long did you think about/prepare for the comic before you started the comic and did you ever worry that it might not take off?
Tumblr media
I came up with the design for White Diamond Steven on August 4th, 2018. At that time, I also said this:
Tumblr media
.......famous last words.
Going against my own advice, I DID think about how it all happened. I thought about it for a month, and then in September I sat down and banged out the very first White Diamond AU comic - the one about Earl and Steven leaving together.
To tell the truth, at the time I just thought it would be a neat little idea. I never worried about it 'not taking off' because..... taking off wasn't my goal. I had no diabolical plans to craft a 5-season story, the longest I'd ever done. I had no aspirations to make this AU incredibly popular or well known.
I just wanted to draw silly comics about White Diamond Steven and his Pearl wandering around together.
The original concept for all this wasn't an epic tale. It was just a slice of life.... a very odd slice of life, but a slice of life nevertheless.
Which is why the first season of the story is what it is! Some people complain that it's directionless and boring, but. That was kinda the point. It was meant to be a melancholy, atmospheric little comic strip.
Tumblr media
There wasn't any specific goal. I had a backstory, of course, and I KNEW even back then what was happening. But I assumed the interest - both mine and the audience's - would wane and I would just leave it whenever its time had come.
But by October, we had already come to this:
Tumblr media
And I think it was around this time (or shortly before it) that I realized that this story couldn't remain in a perpetual just-vibes state forever. I had teased some hints about where the Crystal Gems were, and what their situation was. I had hinted that there was more to the story than had been revealed. And I suddenly thought that maybe I could actually write it.
.... and I kinda did.
Tumblr media
(It's still weird to think about how MUCH I've written/drawn for this.)
I think.... a lot of people believe that writing/planning a story is something that happens on command. You sit down, you take a blank sheet of paper, you start from the beginning, and write everything in chronological order, and maybe in a week, or a month, or a year, you'll have 'the plan to write a story'.
And sure, that's one way to do it! But a lot of time, the story comes to YOU.
Rebecca Sugar knew Rose was Pink Diamond before the first episode aired. Was Steven Universe a planned story back then? Arguably, no. But the team had a framework.
I also knew, before drawing a single comic, what WD!Steven's deal was. I knew within about a day how he had come to be. I knew how Greg got involved in all of it. I knew the answer to every single 'BUT WHY DID WHITE DIAMOND--' question you guys have asked me for the past 5 years before I even created this blog.
But that isn't really a 'plan' so much as a concept.
I continue to plan the comics to this day. I know the end, and I know the main story beats. But the middle stuff about how to get there elegantly - that part takes planning. And I never really stopped planning since that day in 2018.
Here's to... more planning in the upcoming year!

Update description (Feb. 16, 2021):
I'm not good at outlining shapes or drawings but I made this version of the temple door because I enjoy the WD!Steven AU made by @thechekhov.
I totally respect you and your wonderful masterpieces. I'll be changing my banner again in a few days.
Can't wait to see what's in store for the next season.
Again, I hope you like my fanart.

Earl joins a unfamiliar world..planet...universe?
I present to you..my unfinished best work so far!
First, Earl belongs to @ask-whitepearl-and-steven
Second, I added Earl into Don’t Starve Together! It was, and still is, hard, since every sprite was in each category (the face, head, lower arm, leg, foot, etc.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She’s, like I said, still missing a few sprites, but she’s still a work in progress! Even tho she’s almost finished
Sadly, she won’t have any special abilities due to me not being able to make code, only edit it. To add earl in the game, I used the ECS (Extended Character Sample.)
...But she will have custom quotes and a custom ghost! (Along with a portrait, icon, etc.)
Here is her front, side and back view.
Tumblr media
Sadly, I won’t add her as a playable character...
...unless...
I reach a certain goal...IF I earn at least 20$, I’ll add her to the steam workshop as a playable character!
Tumblr media
https://ko-fi.com/lilqarts
If we reach the goal, when she’s fully finished, she’ll be on the open steam.
Here are some first-looking pics. (Earl before I added some sprites)

"yes steven I was the gem who killed your father, now let's do something fun"
I was re-watching kill la kill today and thought... 'man I like Nui Harime... and she only has one eye...why don't I try and mix her with white pearl from steven universe???
but not the show version of her nooo, lets mix Nui with @thechekhov version of her, the @ask-whitepearl-and-steven version, cause at some point she got her body colors in a mix of both pink and grey and it looked great... also because I needed an excuse to draw white pearl and inspiration appears whenever she feels like!!

White Diamond and Earl <3
These two belong to @ask-whitepearl-and-steven aka @thechekhov
I've been working on this for some time now xD I wasn't sure about their designs/colors (until recently) + what poses to use ^w^'
In the end I decided to draw them relaxing together~ (They both deserve it, and Earl is singing...!) I also had been practicing how to draw Pearls and Steven to get their bodies right haha

Steven vs. the Multiverse - Questions
Our heroes confront a mysterious stranger about some interdimensional happenings.
Next episode (You Too?)>>
This is part me doing an experiment, part me wanting to show some love to some SU AUs I’ve been following. If I had more time and dedication, this would be part of some larger-scale story. But we’ll just have to settle with random scenes like this. Enjoy!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shouldn't we pull them out of that suit?
Tumblr media
I already tried. They're stuck in that thing. And if I use too much force, I'm worried that I might break it.
Tumblr media
So how much longer do you think it'll take for them to reform?
Tumblr media
It varies from gem to gem. We could be waiting for over a week--
Tumblr media
Over a week!?
Tumblr media
... But in my universe, Rose came back after only a few seconds, and my friend Earl took a few hours to reform. So maybe they won't take that long--
Tumblr media
It's happening now!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Woah, is that three gems coming back all at once? That's some impressive synchronization. I wonder if that suit has anything to--
Tumblr media
Wait! Nora, don't look!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Huh? Wait, why?
Tumblr media
I... actually don't know. Pearl told me not to look once, and I just thought that looking at a gem while they’re reforming was rude. Or that the light from reforming could blind you. Kind of like staring at the sun?
Tumblr media
Yeah, uh, Steven? That's not really a thing. At all.
Tumblr media
What? Then why...?
Tumblr media
Hey! This is important!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And we are back! What happened while we were out?
Tumblr media
Not much. We found you had poofed, dragged your suit to the warp pad, and then warped here.
Tumblr media
Who are you? And where are we? And what's going on!?
Tumblr media
Okay, hold on --
Tumblr media
And why are there so many "Stevens" running around?
Tumblr media
And "Noras"?
Tumblr media
And other "Crystal Gems," or whatever they're calling themselves?
Tumblr media
Oh yeah, now that you mention it, I remember seeing another version of Pearl earlier, except she was a vampire--
Tumblr media
Everyone slow down! One question at a time!
Tumblr media
Now then, to start, my name is Conga Tourmaline. Interdimensional Traveler, Occupant of the Throne of Loki, unrivaled mage and technician, and bunch of other random roles and titles that likely mean nothing to any of you. As for where we are, isn’t it obvious? This is your house, Steven.
Tumblr media
Well, yeah, but it’s... flipped. Like, everything that should be on the left is on the right, and vice versa.
Tumblr media
Ah yeah, gem warp technology isn’t exactly built for travel between alternate universes.
Tumblr media
So... we’re all trapped in this one universe?
Tumblr media
I wouldn't say "trapped." I prefer the term, "it’s difficult to leave."
Tumblr media
Okay, so why are we here in the first place?
Tumblr media
Ah... yeaaaaaaaah that’s my fault.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Let me just say, there wasn’t any ill intent behind this. It was just supposed to be a fun little multiversal hangout. We’d all get together, have a little party, down your choice of advertiser-friendly beverage, maybe do a dungeon raid--
Tumblr media
We... don’t do “dungeon raids.”
Tumblr media
... and then wrap it all up with some pizza. All expenses on me.
Tumblr media
But it looks like I either got carried away with invitations, or I attracted the wrong sort of attention. Now there’s more than just a few dozen alternate “Crystal Gems” running loose.
Tumblr media
So... those monsters...
Tumblr media
Yeah, I got a little careless with all the portals I cast.
Tumblr media
And the black pearl that poofed you?
Tumblr media
Don’t know how exactly she got here, but I’m going to say that I might have accidentally grabbed her instead of more Crystal Gems. The same thing could probably be said for most, if not all of the other “anti-CGs” that we probably have to deal with now.
Tumblr media
Does that include the Diamonds?
Tumblr media
The Diamonds?! What do you mean “the Diamonds!?”
Tumblr media
After you poofed, we saw an army being led by both Yellow and... I might have just been seeing things, but I could have sworn it was... Pink.
Tumblr media
Oh... no...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yellow Diamond!
Tumblr media
We’re about to have company. Brace yourselves.
Tumblr media
TO BE CONTINUED... maybe.
Next Episode (You Too?)>>
Thank you so much for reading! Here’s a list of all the characters featured in this comic, and their respective cool AU blogs (Not including Canon SU):
White Diamond Steven - @ask-whitepearl-and-steven​
Nora Maheswaran - @amnesia-au-nora-maheswaran​
Kid Pearl - @gemkidsau​
Conga Tourmaline - OCdonotsteal
There’s also a few references to other AUs, if you can spot them.
EDIT: Adjusted Kid Pearl’s dialogue a bit, because it implied that they didn’t already know that they were in another universe, while WD!Steven said something that implied the opposite. 
EDIT 2: Added a brief episode description. And a link to the next one!

Thank you as always for sticking around and following this blog. 
I’m still in the thick of it for a little while, so episode-drawing has been slow. Thankfully I’m trying to crawl my way out and restart my brain function to start actively writing again. I’ll be posting the next comic on December 24th, as usual at 6pm PST on Tapas.
