still quite pleased with this old write-up I did for him, so sharing it again here:
The main thing that offsets people about Ben Grimm’s appearance is the sharp indents where his eyes should be. He used to attempt to maintain the shape of eyes, but it proved too difficult, and too painful. He doesn’t need them anyway - he sees with his entire form, now.
Ben’s body is a rapidly growing mineral that continues to reseal itself if he doesn’t make the effort to keep his shape. He has a different set of cracks on different days, depending on how much he’s moved around, and on his mood. On good days, the cracks spread across his face in big rocky crow’s feet. On bad days, he’s notably statuesque. On the worst days, you may walk past his room and see a shapeless boulder, sitting motionless and alone.
After the accident, he was quick in learning to reshape his hands, so Sue taught him how to sign, which made it easier for him to communicate with the team. But when he’s out in public, he will always make the effort to speak, in his rumbling, grinding voice.
And when he speaks, he will always make the effort to say something kind. Life is too short and bizarre for harsh words.
However, he is ready and willing to pull his weight in a fight. The longer he fights, the more he breaks apart. But that makes it easier to move, and helps him remember what it was like before. There’s no joy quite like clobberin’ for old Ben Grimm.
thanks for looking :)

that was actually part of my thought process for this design, haha.
I also added the white segments with the hex pattern as a nod to Future Foundation costumes!

Akira Toriyama's work was, for me and many others, a major formative influence on art style, character design, and all around creativity.
Some of my earliest passion for drawing came from doodling Dragon Ball OCs at school, and trying to replicate the dynamic poses and fights from the manga and anime.
His ability to interchange so well between goofy and serious tones, and introduce endearing and interesting characters, was consistently impressive.
His legacy will endure across many mediums, stories, and childhoods.

I did see ATSV, btw
still a lot of thoughts jumbling around about it, and unfortunately I saw it with poor sound mixing (a wide-reaching issue, I hear) so not fully ready to do any kind of big opinion post just yet!
Hope y’all enjoyed it <3
