Hello there Hermitblr, I have decided that, in honor of Wormman's 10th birthday, I'd take on my role as the CEO again and host a Wormman Week!! It will start on the 15th and end on the 19th, which is Wormman's birthday. If anybody wants to join in, feel free to. Please spread this around and use the tag "WormmanWeek2024"
Go follow @wormmanweek2024 if you want to keep up with the idea!! I will be reblogging any and all Wormman Week artwork to that blog, as well as taking questions and submissions!!
Okay so I realized that there are definitely people who reblogged Wormman Week who don't actually know who Tangno is (since he's in the Tuesday prompt) so I guess I'm making a post to tell people about who he is in advance. Two days advance but. In advance!!
So at the beginning of episode 4 of Zedaph's Moonlight SMP, we are introduced to Wm's arch-nemesis, the evil Dr TangNO. Who is as cringe-fail as Wormman but in the evil direction. Now outside of this intro we kind of thought Tangno was. Basically Lost Media because the skin isn't on Tango's Name MC, he wasn't in any of Tango's episodes (I checked and could not find him), and for a while nobody thought to check anyone else's POVs because why would he be in any other POV?
Well we actually do have a full appearance for him, thanks to SimplySarc. In his second episode he goes over some of the "server villains" while applying to be Wormman's sidekick, and one of the ones he talks about is Dr. Tangno.
This is the only image we have of his entire design. Literally only like 10 people in the fandom have ever drawn him. I like to think he's. He's Doof from PnF core.
So. Uh. Yea!! You can watch the episodes for more context if you decide to follow the prompts at all, if not you can just draw Wormman every day.
Used Worm Man week as an excuse to finally finish these wips of a gem Zedaph and Worm Man redesign that have been sitting in my folder half finished (okay more than half finished) for months. (since mid to late august)
I made these two to be the same gem (ie, Zed is Worm Man, inverts gem to disguise, lie about gem type), but you can also just ignore Zed's weapon and treat them as two separate entities that happen to look similar since -gestures to pyropes hessonites and Garnet-
Version with notes featured below the cut
After designing my own Evil X and Xisuma gem designs, I decided I wanted to look at my zed/wm design again. I wasn't as happy with kinda just making another gem that didn't exist, so went looking for an existing gem that might fit better. And then I remembered the Morganite sketch.
Originally there was going to be a story about the ruby and pearl that make Rhodonite, and the morganite that owned them, but the story was cut. That being said, we did get sketches of her (i think there were like 2). Sketches aren't final of course, but it was the best I had. And I absolutely ran with the fact that she was designed in a kimono.
I started with Worm Man's design, running with the idea that 'wait, a kimono is japanese, the japanese version of a hero is a magical girl!!!' (yes i know that's not actually the case super sentai, kamen rider, etc) So bam! put him in a skirt! The weapon was also designed to be magical girl esque, which is why i say to give Zedaph another weapon if you want them to be different.
Also, if you want any lore, my one bit of potential lore is that since Zed is a morganite, which we know is an elite gem, it could be that he owned a certain trio consisting of a bismuth, carnelian and topaz. But he definitely treated them more as friends than underlings bc being elite is booooring. He wants to do stuff!
Oh and also if you go along with my interpretation of the diamond authority in gemcyt, because of him doing redstone and his whole s8 science thing, gem him really wished he were part of Blue's court.
AND SO IT BEGINS. Wormman Week has started and I decided to make the day 1 prompt a little easier for myself by not rendering it the way I tend to do, but rather going with a comic book styled cell shading look since, Wormman is a superhero. I thought it would be fun

This is a redraw of an old comic I made, which is an incorrect quote, since it really sums up these dummies' relationship. They're so dumb. I miss them. I had them for 20 seconds. I am the only Wormno enthusiast on the face of the planet.

This one is later than the others because I didn't feel like drawing earlier today and also was packing things. But uh. Evilworm.

Presenting: Wormman Week 2024!! A Week long event commemorating Hermitblr's favorite worm themed superhero!! You don't have to actually do the prompts, it's just there to give you ideas if you don't know what to draw. The starting date is Monday, January the 15th, and the concluding date is Friday, January the 19th. I'll reblog any art here, make sure to either tag this account or use the tag #WormmanWeek2024 so I can find the art!!
I am posting this now just so people know it exists and have time to prepare, just in case they're busy on Wormman Week but want to get art ready in the queue!! Feel free to ask me any questions!
This is a spiritual redraw of a little doodle that @micer2012 did back during 2021, when we first invented Wormass Wednesday. This is my legacy on Hermitblr now. Great
