So I read this really good Jojo Eyes of Heaven Rewrite and I got inspired by a certain scene in chapter 3 and decided to draw my own version of Joanna from the description. The fic is called ‘I ain’t a doll, this ain’t a dollhouse’ by @vaurelias it’s so good I definitely recommend.
Situated in the middle of a smaller, more cluttered room before him was a beautiful woman with a light tan complexion. She sat seemingly lifeless on a rocking chair. A waterfall of midnight hair cascaded down her large frame. A gaudy wedding ring sat on her ring finger. She wore a form fitting deep blue dress with a v-neck that stretched down to her navel. The neckline was not to show off her body, but to make room for the large golden arrow lodged deep in her chest. Large, thorned lavender vines sprouted and writhed from the wound like a nest of bagworms to span the entire floor. They covered every surface in the room like a web.
Details of my process and version without background under the cut:
Though I took some liberties with the description of Joanna’s dress because I thought Dio would go for something more over the top then actually sexy (just look at his stupid outfit in part 3) so I went for something that was revealing but also something I could see coming from the 80s. I found a similar looking dress on Pinterest and immediately chose it as the dress.
I also wanted some flower or vine imagery around her legs so I gave her shoes inspired by Ashlynn Ella from Ever After High but with roses on the front as Dio in part 3 is surrounded by roses throughout the story. I also gave her a choker with a heart on it as a reference to Dio’s headband, and to show he sees her as his thing or his doll (ha) also kept it green so it looked out of place on purpose.
Also I know the text said the arrow is stuck in Joanna’s chest but I tried to follow that description but with the POV I wanted it wouldn’t have been possible for me to draw the arrow that way without it looking awful so she’s holding it in the art. Also very proud of myself for doing the arrow head’s details because before actually doing it I thought it’d be impossible with how detailed it looked. Yay, me!
Also just wanted to say I hate doing backgrounds, that’s why it’s not super detailed but hey, good thing Dio’s mansion is always shadowy and dark so I didn’t need to worry as much. But here’s a version of Joanna on her own, I really like it.

So I Gender-swapped Kakyoin and Giorno, it’s about time I posted some art of Fem! Jonathan aka Joanna Joestar!
What do you think?
(Info about AU and process under cut)
So I’ve been writing a part 3 rewrite (Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic) but if some of the characters were gender-swapped for funsies and Joanna was my first. I was originally going to start my AU with part 1 but I found it hard to write it so just went to part 3 and I’m back writing part 1 while planning for future part 3 chapters (why is my brain like this?).
So I decided to draw some outfits for Joanna, I’ve seen far too many people draw Fem! Johnathan in a dress or corset but the more I watched part 1 and read the manga the more I realised that wouldn’t make sense, I mean with how much fighting she’s doing the dress would be in the way so I’ve made her a Tom-boy. In my AU, if she’s wearing a dress it’s because Dio or her father is controlling her wardrobe, not because it was her choice.
I saw this cool looking coat on Pinterest and immediately wanted to use it with how the bottom looked and I think it fits, helps with her silhouette and very dramatic. I loved how it came out! And of course I had to do the battle outfit, because cropped tops weren’t a thing back in Victorian England I made it that it was torn in a fight (maybe from a zombie or something? Haven’t decided).
I would like to do Jonathan’s other outfits Araki has drawn him in in the future, I think it would be fun.
