Did the thing where I drew without knowing the colors I picked and just happened to get one of the biggest thematic pairs of colors in this album. Crazy

Anyway here is Soul

[swatch-ful]

i draw them being at eachother's lips way too often, now they're at eachother's throats again

[swatch-ful]

What the hell is this guy doing. someone stop him I am so mad

An alt version below the cut because I couldn’t decide which one to pick

[swatch-ful]

Every time I post anything I feel this necessity to explain my reasoning for whatever I’ve drawn for whatever reason and I’m realizing that it really does not matter. I am creating for the hell of it and that’s what matters. I think anyways idk

Anyways here’s some Heart for no real reason bc I’ve been on a Heart drawing kick lately I guess

[swatch-ful]

Something I made both out of experimentation and symbolism, somewhere in between

Probably not my best (seeing as I often don’t work with lineless) but oh well. I made something

[swatch-ful]

I’ve like given up on trying to hide how I projectonto Mind every thing I do is him core actually guys. this is really lazy and rushed but I am Angry

[swatch-ful]

The art block has killed me. I need to kill it back.

[swatch-ful]

I’m realizing I completely forgot to post this when I made it so uhhh

Here is something I painted that was definitely mostly inspired by HMSW but in the abstract confusing way that is meant to be interpreted by whoever sees it

[swatch-ful]

EYESTRAIN CW maybe probably. just in case

—

“Nonsensical”

—

Went a bit crazy with experimenting (doing whatever I felt like) and now this exists. don’t think too hard about the deeper meaning. or do. idk I am content with it

[swatch-ful]

every time I see anyone genuinely trying to paint any of HMS as inherently evil people for the crime of being mentally ill I instantly say to myself 'oh fuck I must defend THE CONCEPT OF ID EGO AND SUPEREGO online' and I stand in front of them arms outstretched therefore blocking all incoming attacks (which I am immune to and they do not affect me because I am actually just evil for the bit)

Headcanon: You’d think that Heart, being mostly blind, would bump into stuff the most often, but he actually has a pretty good mental image of the layout of the house, so he only really ever bumps into stuff when there is stuff where stuff usually isn’t, or when stuff isn’t where it usually is, or when doors that are usually open are closed, or stuff like that.

The one who actually bumps into stuff the most often is Mind, because he is too busy thinking about things to realise that he is walking directly into the doorframe, or about to stub his toe, or about to walk into the corner of his desk, or about to walk into a bit of his bedframe that sticks out for no good reason [aesthetics probably but like still it is annoying], or about to hit his elbow against the kitchen countertop, etc.

Little bonus headcanon related to the main headcanon: This has resulted in Mind walking directly into the closed bathroom door hard enough to break his nose [Not seriously break his nose, just a mild break, one that just kinda hurts a bit but isn’t too bad] late at night because he forgot he had closed it earlier and wasn’t looking where he was going.

I’ve been dead (busy) for a while now so here is a short compilation of aggressively lazy traditional doodles that range from like a week old to like ten months old because I have nothing else. oops

[swatch-ful]

those freaks i love to hate

[swatch-ful]

hms ‘concept’ designs (their true forms, the ones that cj imagines when he thinks about the three ids in his head, really only come out in psychedelic metaphor moments or during very emotional moments or just during songs when they get really into it)

i’d give whole/harmonia one but im too lazy so

design yap under the cut!

okay design yap time

overall:

- they all have a symbol with the other two’s colors to symbolize their unity and connection

- they all have a set of three somethings to also symbolize their unity and need for three

- yes they look cluttered, that’s the point

- i wanted to add lipstick originally, it wouldn’t have gone well

heart:

- lwk my least favorite of the designs, like he’s not ugly he’s just not my favorite

- three pairs of wings because his wings are his prize characteristic, to symbolize unity

- his moon halo doubles as the seraphim eye halo, mostly bc he got three pairs of wings so it looked cool and fitting

- water pattern because the moon controls the tides, also ironically because he cries the most (he’s got tears on the big face cross and throughout the water patterns)

- crossed-out eyes in blue and red because soul took his sight after he went after mind

- flowy mythic clothing to drive home that almost angelic look

- poofy hair

- only one not to utilize the album cover in his design

mind:

- first design i drew, pretty proud of drawing all those hands

- three pairs of arms because mechanical hands, to symbolize unity (they took me forever)

- his sun halo also is supposed to represent a crown, mr. ruler of everything

- weird tech pattern because he’s a fucking computer

- crosshair in purple and red instead of a modulator, because juno incident!! (funnily enough he’s the only one with a real mouth despite being vocally fucked)

- lab coat because he’s cold and calculated

- funky toothy grin from the album cover

- clock because haha he can tick like a clock

- sharp electric hair

soul:

- honestly my favorite, i’m very proud of how he turned out

- three dramatic horns because it’s a staple, then when combined with the noose it’s shaped like a trident!!

- noose because he’s a suicidal guy okay leave him alone

- funky double star halo because it looked nice no symbolism, also so he matched

- star pattern for obvious reasons

- tragedy mask in blue and purple, because even at his purest form, he still is the host of his heart and mind (also album cover reference)

- priest clothes because harmonia religious crisis, also it looks lwk sick (the little red details actually represent hmsw!)

- claws. demon motifs. religious everything. i was gonna add a little tail but i didn’t like how it looked

- hair is a mix of heart and mind’s

- only one to keep his void self in his simple/humanoid design, probably because he’s the closest to the whole and the loops, and in turn his pure form

Do you think Mind yearns to feel things again? To feel Hearts face, or Souls hands? Do you think Mind yearns to feel tears roll his face? Do you think Mind yearns to feel with his hands once again? Do you think Mind yearns?
