HELLLLPPP- Why the hell do I like this one better than the actual render ;-; anehjdbjsjseis

Get yourself a man that can manspread and sits legs crossed at the same time

Condescending bastard

I might have a favorite color palette and gradient map hehe

My hand and eyes hurtsssss…..(This took longer than the pool one) ;-;

This is the inspiration, if you can guess which movie it came from as well as the original painting, you are a very cultured individual

Can you please draw Scroop as a kid? Or him eating his favorite food.

(Art request!)

Sorry for the long wait, but here it is! The food are called Chitterbuns in Treasure Planet and they come with a variety of different fillings based on different regions on the planet! (if I could draw them again, I would change them since they look too much like their real world counterpart-)

I might adjust his design a little bit (idk if he looked like the age I gave him…only time will tell-)and still need to design on his outerwear but other than that this is a good starting point since I have been procrastinating on drawing this idea before the request) thank you for the request!

(I also have catered to my self indulgent headcanons *a bit* by sprinkling inspirations from chinese culture haha (^_^;)) (The clothing is inspired by the dudou that Nezha wore from the 1979 film wore (the 1979 Nezha’s dudou and outer hanfu is also going to be a blueprint for his future outerwear design) :D

Hiiii I live your Scroop art and I was wondering if you take art requests of the guy?

Hello! o(^▽^)o Thank you so much for the appreciation!

Art requests of Scroop is welcome! Though just a heads up is that this is my first time doing this and I have an inconsistent drawing speed (it takes maybe from 4 days to weeks) and will select requests that I am comfortable with. The art also might just be flat colored with some highlights.

Also, I’m currently focused on only drawing Scroop solo. I rarely draw other characters or character interactions, since I’m not very experienced in that field and Scroop alone already takes a lot of effort to get it right (^_^;). So I’m not taking requests that involve others at the moment. Hope that’s okay! Although maybe in the future (no promises tho-), when I workshop it enough, I’ll let expand my comfort zone :D

[annspecter]

Rebloging/saving this so it is easier to find and look at this for reference and behind the scene background info :D (Ngl- kinda want to draw him wanting a coffee but his voice and appearance doesn’t make the process easy)

Now all I need is to hope that maybe *one day* a Scroop model sheet or a guideline of how to draw him will drop! (DISNEY VAULT LET ME IN-) if he was a pain to animate, there MUST have been a how to keep him on model sheet! Let me hear those secrets!

(I am not on copium I swear-)

rare digital art escapades to warm up for my art fight this year.... ughhhhhhhh ohhh treasure planet why did I have to start grinding on cookie run kingdom that one day curses.... why did I have to hyperfixate on cookie run.....

[annspecter]

He is so whimsy, even in the marine he’s still- Wait…

No- he is still too young please! Let him be for just another 10 years (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)

My Battle at Procyon oc Rory (He’s a Marine because I never see TP Marines ocs)……. 🐛🐛 Sure hope nothing devastating and life changing happens to him

He’s apart of a shared oc lore thing me and @helmador are making😋 I’ll probably share some of it once I draw him more

Hello!! 👋🏻

As a fellow Scroop fan thank you so much for your amazing artwork!!! It’s truly amazing, you really captured his character!!! 😁

I wanted to ask! How did you get into Treasure Planet? And what made you choose Scroop as your favorite?

Thank you!! 😊 Have a good day!!

Hello!

First of all, I really appreciate your words regarding my artworks of Scroop! (He is the first masculine character I am actually proud of drawing haha) (now beware of my grammar loll)

For the question of Treasure Planet, if I remember correctly is due to me wanting to know more about the Disney’s early experimental age. And because I love Fantasia 2000 as well as Lilo and Stitch, Treasure Planet seem like a very good choice to get into, and oh my gah did I slapped it to one of my favorite movies. (Possibly due to how Jim’s father situation is similar to what I had dealt with)

For Scroop- Is kind of like many reasons.

- The most surface level would be that he has one of my favorite color palettes, I’ve also always loved horror monster and alien designs. And I was in heaven when I found his concept arts and animation tests lol

- and then the rest: He at first started out as an aesthetic crush of mine. But as I rewatched the film over and over (I would also occasionally change the audio to different languages to see how the characters would sound). I found myself oddly relate to him in a way (well- in terms of how I interpreted him in the movie):

he is emotionally reactive (check), he holds grudges (check), he takes things very personally (HUGE CHECK) and possibly more

(And this is like a headcanon and it feels contradictory but hear me out! Scroop while he has good emotional intelligence and is self aware of what he needed to do to get what he wants, his emotional reactivity or him actually applying his actions in the moment is a huge coinflip.)

Jim is kind of like that as well, but I guess that Scroop acted as a better emotional outlet for me for some reason. And the character did help me recognize my past behaviors when I reflected. (Oh and maybe there is some overlapping qualities of him and Starscream)

And another one is because I want to challenge myself to learn to draw alien anatomy and push my drawing expressions, and his animation and design is the perfect candidate,

Sooo…yeah! These are the current reasons about my huge interest in Scroop haha

Have a good day as well! o(^▽^)o

[annspecter]

Scroop expressions! :D

Scroop Shading Study

(╯°Д°）╯JUST A HEADS UP! The posing is loosely referenced off of a pin up pose where he is in a lounging position and Scroop is nude (but no visible or implied reproductive organs) viewer discretion advised!

Anywayssss- My final exams are finished!! Yeyey- and I am also glad that I didn’t fully lose the muscle memory of rendering Scroop

(And I forgot just how confusing Scroop’s anatomy can be interpreted to make sense loll so watch me render his chelae differently in the future of every detailed post of him :,)

(If the quality is trash- blame it on tumblr-)

[annspecter]

So uhhh….I did it

I Bishoujoed Scroop- into a goth girl (she thought just because she is olive skinned she won’t get sunburnt and then she ended up with a very visible farmer tan :D)

(And yes- this is very self indulgent)

(Her fav goth bands are Little Nemo, Bauhouse, Diva Destruction, Siouxsie and the Banshees)

[annspecter]

Oh Ma Gah!!! It’s! Beautiful!!!! (You even gave Morph the smug lol! And his little paws(?) are sticking out!!) (≧▽≦)

Same vibe, how come no one is redrawing this- like look at the potential ∠( ᐛ 」∠)

[annspecter]

The desire to turn Scroop into a goth bishoujo…

me finding out my mutual is one inch taller than me

[annspecter]

The clothing and his skin/exoskeleton(?) rendering- oh ma gah… this is beautiful- ﾉ( ´▽` )ﾉ

(It is also kind of strange how little attention he gets-)

Doodles of captain flint from treasure planet

(Why no one draw him?)

[annspecter]

Words can not describe how in love I am with your artwork, especially those of Scroop! He is one of the characters from Treasure Planet (best movie to exist, if I say so myself) that caught my eye, and he definitely doesn't get as much attention as the others. You deserve a hug! 🫂

Thank you very much! Is no doubt his striking color palette and design is very catching to the eye in the film (and yes, one of the best films!) if not one of the best design (a kind of reverse character design rule of how he is 70% alien anatomy and 30% humanoid anatomy as compared to the main alien characters in my opinion- I am a sucker for red, purple, yellow, and black color palette). I am also quite sad that he didn’t get much fanarts and attention, I thought he might be good monster-lover content. (Also I really appreciate the online hug :D)
