#tf2 kumamon au

[demonir]

Imagine a tf2 game of red Kumamons vs blue Kumamons.

So like... you put this idea in my head so really this is your fault that it exists

However I had way too much fun drawing this so I'll take full responsibility and let you off easy 👍

btw can you tell that I suck at drawing bears?

What are the tf2 Kumamon weapons like?

been having a complicated few days but I finally had the energy to sit down and do this so here we go!!!

I feel soldier kumamon would have standard kumamon's weapon as it kinda reminds me of the rocket launcher already? even thought they aren't similar, but reading up on kumamons wiki info and how it's a soldier and such I'm like yeah it fits

As for pyro kumamon...well it's an ice digimon so a flamethrower does not make much sense so pyro kumamon has been changed to uhh... cryo kumamon! they got a freeze gun now! I made the chamber that I assume would store the fuel transparent because I like the idea of seeing the freeze juice sloshing inside hehe

As for the other mercs? I think their weapons would look mostly the same just slightly simplified? although tf2's style is already rather cartoony so not a lot of change would be made in my opinion, if you wanna know about how they WORK however...well

Having established that it's an ice type digimon that shoots snowball projectiles the rest is sort of easy? standard bullets are just snowballs meaning heavy's is a snowball minigun for example (lol that's adorable) I know that this technically means I've referred to soldier's rockets as "standard bullets" but bear with me ok?? haha get it? bear? ahem anyways- soldier shoots COOL snowballs ok? SPECIAL snowballs there ya go-

Demoman's are just a different kind of snowball as the wiki I'm checking says kumamon has a variety of different snowballs it can use

We're just gonna interpret "according to purpose" as "depending on the class" and say demo kumamon has sticky snowballs and uhh pill snowballs? im more inclined to say they are sort of explosive ice cubes bc snowballs do NOT bounce

Sniper kumamon probs shoots piercing icicles straight into ya brain from his patented Kumma Co rifle (haha see what I did there?) As for Engie's sentries-

I told myself I was NOT going to draw a sentry EVER IN MY LIFE but midway through writing this post I was like no no no no I must illustrate this. Level 3 snow sentry is slightly taller than the average kumamon unlike in game tf2's sentry that is slightly shorter than real engineer, this is not because I am some sort of genius mastermind with huge plans in mind this is because I suck with proportions (and I drew this without having a reference of the sentry next to engie at hand) But anyway the snow sentry has a steady supply of snowballs to kill you with <3

I have NO idea how medic's medigun would work let's just say it does, same goes for spy's disguises

Anyways uhh I didn't intend for this to go for so long or get so in depth I just tried to be as faithful as I could to both digimon and tf2 but 1: I am new to digimon I am like a freshly born baby I had to go look through 3 different digimon wikis for info on this stuff bc i wanted to take my fictional polar bear SERIOUSLY and 2: while I AM a huge tf2 fan I am not knowledgeable on the weapons department so this was a real doozy for me

If any of you digimon/tf2 fans have any ideas/suggestions or even corrections I am all ears! these are just my ideas coming from someone who made a crack au at 12 am one night because some random anonymous person on the internet told them to

Also I've been calling it kumamon the entire time but it's name is also chackmon???? I feel properly pranked

Gotta say I love Heavy! Kumamon.

I think he’s one of the cutest ones ngl! Originally I wasn’t gonna give him the og kumamon headpiece but I thought he’d look too naked without it and I still wanted him to resemble the og digimon with something else that wasn’t just the boots.

I sorta wanted all of them to have something on their head because I feel that’s an important part of kumamons design and then I got to medic and was like….

“Yeah just the hair swirly is fine lmao” unsure on if I like the end result or not, I still think his expression is quite cute tho! The eyebrows are entirely on me I felt like he’d look off without them and to me medic isn’t fully medic without some silly shaped eyebrows

Another thing that I wanted to keep in mind when drawing them was that you don’t really fully see kumamon’s eyes, they are always partially hidden by the headpiece so I tried to replicate that with every design as close as I could! The hardest ones for that were heavy, medic spy and sniper

Heavy was resolved how I previously mentioned and for sniper I figured his hat would do a good enough job however for medic and spy I had…nothing, in the end I opted to still draw them as if they were half covered but in different ways that match their expressions although uhhh now that I type this I realize spy’s mask itself could have been the shape to fix it but oh well what’s done is done

Anyways sorry for the ramble I enjoy character design a lot 🙏 and I’m glad people liked the silly drawings

EDIT: my images got fucked so I fixed them lmao
