⭐️BONUS PIECE⭐️

Same as the last post I did, but with more background 🖼 ✨

The characters looked GREAT already from the initial piece, but I felt like there needed to be something behind them aside from just a white background with text... so I made my own cover 😎

I followed the Dragon Ball/One Piece manga cover design cause they make a neat “POPPING OUT” effect for their characters; which I really liked.

Looking back at this piece now, I realized the colors I chose kinda makes an interesting retro effect. Like it kinda looks like sumn you’d see from a 90s/00s magazine, but it just needs more grain or texture. I didn’t mean to do that, but in retrospect, still looks VERY VERY COOL 😲

I have a liberal arts degree which means I also have a favorite citation style and hate the other ones. If you know you know.

the vague idea of 'skeptic was a very high profile Goth Individual who cared about heteromorph rights back when tokoyami was a kid, so when PH!Tokoyami comes upon him ... he just thinks he looks pathetic and in need of help. Tomoyasu, high as a kite, does not realize he narrowly avoided arrest'

this was inspired by a fic that... did not contain any of this.

Saw steven universe recently, and now i'm wondering how a nana/torino/toshinori gem fusion would look like. :o What do you think their gems would be????

I’m gonna be so real, I never actually followed Steven Universe. I think I hopped on just for the show finale, and then the movie. That being said, I think an SU-fusion (incorporating, of course, OFA too) would be like…

[Art is going above the read-more. tl;dr, One For All 1-7 are various incarnations of White Diamond (Yoichi), Sorahiko is the faithful Pearl, and thousands of years later, they create Toshinori, a synthetic Pink Diamond]

Okay but bear with me we’re going to ignore several ruling principles of Steven Universe. One is the gender rule. Two is the Gem class hierarchy. Three is the bonkers timeline and alternate history that SU functions off of.

AFO (Zen), OFA (Yoichi), and that Qingqing City Baby are the original Diamonds. AFO and QCB are forever squabbling, and OFA hates being caught in the middle, so Yoichi runs away with his assigned Pearl, Sorahiko, placement: right hand. (YEAH THAT’S RIGHT. IT’S TECHNICALLY A VESTIGESTORINO STORY. CHEER WITH ME. YAYYYYYY)

(It is deeply funny for me to picture Machia as a Pearl. BUT WAIT, IT’S ACTUALLY TRAGIC.

GIGANTOMachia is a corrupted fusion. Fusion with what? IDK. AFO said, “I wanna see what happens,” and Machia said, like a loyal dog, “Okey.”)

We know that Diamonds are capable of disguise. Pink Diamond turns into Rose Quartz? Yoichi turns into Kudou turns into Bruce etc etc etc. I’m taking inspo from one of @/amaranthdahlia’s posts where Yoichi’s white eyes are more of a prism/holograph than an unreflective matte white--by this leap of logic, Yoichi (White Diamond) is able to color change too. The placement of the gem is always at the heart.

SO we eventually get to the Nana incarnation. At this point, she and Sorahiko have been joined at the hip for thousands of years. It’s kind of impossible not to hear about the various power grabs both AFO and QCB have been making, but Sorahiko’s been clocked out for thousands of years. He doesn’t give a shit about the tyrant and cult leader. Unbeknownst to Sorahiko, OFA DOES still give a shit about their siblings and the spillover consequences, so OFA has been hatching a plan to introduce a new Diamond.

Not a new incarnation. A new Diamond.

“You’re crazy,” says Sorahiko. “We have literally been alive for thousands of years. You think we can just make a new Diamond and train them to fight and win against your siblings?”

“Obviously,” says Nana. 

And THAT is how we get our first Synthetic Pink Diamond, Toshinori, placement: stomach. 

Now what do two Diamonds and a Pearl make? Because Toshinori’s a Synthetic Diamond, and apparently any Pearl fusion is named after multi-colored gemstones, I’d probably land somewhere at calling them Mystic Quartz. They are a literally huge powerhouse. I don’t have the creative spoons to design them.

(Thousands of years later, Izuku is your regular old human. Or, if petty family drama is your flavor of choice, he’s AFO’s attempt at making a Synthetic Diamond.)

Hey y’all, Happy (Belated) New Year! 🎉

Starting this year off with my FIRST ever piece of digital fanart (not including doodles or OC inserts)! From this piece onward, it’s gonna be more fanart-focused content now. Just wanna bring my impressions up 🤷‍♂️

Anyways, here’s a Soul Eater piece! Watched it probably a year or two ago and been meaning to offer an art tribute, so here we are. I got inspired to make it like an original manga cover so I can make my piece less empty 🙂

I know I been out for a bit (like usual), but I HAVE MORE TO COME I SWEAR. I have an extra bonus piece related to this. Expect to see it sometime tomorrow, so stay tuned ya’ll 📺👌✨

“Father's Legacy.” Since, according to the fanbook, Destro is now Rikia's father, I wanted to draw something like this.
