One whole person asked about the Invincible suit design variants I did (a while ago, my bad fam) so FINALLY! WORD VOMIT ABOUT THE DESIGNS below!!! >:D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Coherency is for losers but for my own sanity, I’ll probably go suit by suit, which is going to be repetitive asf, since there’s recurring elements, purposefully so, but I will make my thoughts someone else’s problem istg, so before I begin I wanna clarify!
One! Mark and Nolan’s og designs are incredible and I won’t stand for any slander. Their suits work in such incredible contrast. The usage of primary colors for Mark, sans red, makes it so any red stands out against him, thereby suggesting how ill-fitting blood suits him, when it draws your eye so quickly! On the other hand, Nolan’s white (Viltrum color), and red suggest red, ergo blood, fits him, because when his hands are already covered in red, it’s hard to distinguish if the blood’s even there, because he already looks bloody, because violence suits him. Like the color usage + the line for the “O” to match Viltrum? Iconic. They ate this the fuck up. 
Now, I’d rather watch paint dry than see Mark in his new blue-black suit a second longer, because it’s so horribly boring. And before you say a damn thing, I know the purpose of the suit, I’ve said it before, it is a visual representation of his darker era with literal darker color scheme, the removal of bright yellow (like his casual outfits s2 onward), represent the loss of joy, and this continues as he suffers, and his outlook on heroism is soured by Nolan’s actions, plus, he is literally beaten black and blue often. It’s a literal reversal of Nolan’s red-white, even. I KNOW. It’s still so boring because the COLOR works but the DESIGN doesn’t. So it just feels palette swapped. The only meaningful change is shorter boots, AND THAT’S IT? BLASPHEMY. 
Hence the suits. First batch sports the yellow-black-blue, explorations to keep the color scheme, but to keep the message about ruined joy, the colors are dulled!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now, first primarily focuses on incorporating elements from Conquest’s design, because his suit has a variation on the Viltrumite uniform. The double lined belt, the bit of pants cuffed by the low boots, are slapped onto Mark’s suit, here, while general, simplified shaped of Conquest’s robot arm (half circle, then straight line), are added to Mark’s gloves, as well as a chunky/puff cuff to the wrist to, again, give an attempt homage to Conquest’s arm. If you notice, Conquest’s robotic arm, when it meets his uniform, is half circle and straight line, but Mark has a bottom half circle, then line, because, again, homage. An extra emphasis on black because, y’know, darker era, with both the Viltrumite classic line cutting through Mark’s yellow, with black mask. Generally, I’m trying to keep the eye drifting up, but it’s an attempt while balancing the colors.
Second suit (is me fucking around lol), again, explorations by shifting the colors to minimize yellow as Mark’s joy shrinks but hasn’t died yet, with an emphasis on the black and blue. Double lines around the neck portion, Conquest has two lines around his upper arm instead of the standard one, and generally speaking, if you see double lines that’s what I’m trying to pull from. Plus, around the hip are stripes of blue with a shape vaguely mimicking the shapes around Viltrum/Nolan’s waist but vertically, not horizontally. And again, Conquest belt, but Viltrumite geometric shape, with a higher end at the slides, and a slightly lower end in the middle, line-wise. Like a really flattened U, if that makes sense. Boot size to mimic Nolan’s, rather than Conquest’s shorter boots. 
Third of the yellow-black-blue batch follows similarly. Muted colors, double lines around the arm to mimic Conquest, but keeping the og suit’s higher boots without the knee brace, geometric lines rather than the smooth curve because sharp edges = scary, danger whatever, line language, idk, higher gloves to balance the colors, added blue to the upper leg to shake things up.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Beautiful mutual @/ talked about the fuck would you add red to the blue-black and I took it as a personal fucking challenge, and why the og post even exists, so this me figuring that color scheme and I DID IT. Hence, the second batch of three, blue-black-red. First of this batch has lines around the glove like Viltrum uniforms have a line around the lower arm, keeping the og suit’s fingerless look without actually being fingerless, big ol’ emphasis on red in particular while blue and black take second change. Same Conquest homage belt, og suit high boots, sharper shapes rather than smooth curve, with added dark blue around the upper arms as homage to Conquests’ lines around the upper arms. 
Second of the second batch looks color to Nolan here with tiny adjustments; red is an inkling not the focus, while a soft baby blue takes center stage, ‘cause Mark is darker yeah, but he’s still soft, he’s still Mark. Forgot to mention all fingers in this batch are red because of Nolan, and the visual idea of them all have blood stained hands, much like how Nolan’s gloves are red! A little red on the boots to keep the color more of an accent, and a red line on the upper chest/neck as another Nolan homage!
Third of the second batch has way more red, an emphasis of violence, as the gloves are just as red and longer, being short of the elbow this time around. Pale blue-grey is the smallest color used now, but a sharper version of Mark’s og knee pads are included! Sharper, because it’s hard edges and not smooth, circular Mark wore initially. The red bleeding into Mark’s shoulder and a bit of the chest instead of switching to blue farther up, mimicked Mark’s original suit as well. That’s where Mark’s og suit had blue dipped in the shoulder of chest!
LAST one!!!! Entirely blue and black. Ran outta steam to finish anymore, and was itching to post, so the last batch has the only one suit. Only suit with a cape, which is black/dark on the side despite having blue on the outside, intentionally. Not only does he wear a cape like Nolan does, but the darker inside is supposed to emphasize a darker heart, like whatever the fuck that demon said at the end of s3. This suit keeps Mark’s canonical second suit (black, blue) glove but they’re not fingerless anymore but completely covered. The squarish shape to flat line that Nolan has around his waist (where red needs white there), is mimicked on a very minor scale around Mark’s own waist/blue around his chest, where it meets the darker grey.
And that’s all of them! :)

Rotating this show in my mindddddddddd, so back to my usual of translating these mf's in my style, delightfully going insane for minute differences because I WANT THEM. Below for thoughts :3
I know the point is Lin Ling and Nice are identical, (hence kept the EXACT same face shape), but the subtle horror of having one’s face permanently layered, even AFTER you tried stepping outside the role you got shoved in is too yummy. SO!!!
NICE! Slight curl to the hair, sharp eyes, slightly duller pupils! Heroes get white rings around the pupil, like a default eye glow. He is symmetrical except in hair, nose.
Lin Ling, as Nice, retains all the same as above EXCEPT his eye shape, iris, which is slightly rounder. SLIGHTLY, pupils are darker, less dull. Symmetrical in all but hair, nose.
OG! Lin Ling, hair's completely straight/spiky, utterly asymmetrical, and slightly longer than Nice's. Rounder eye shape and iris. Rounder ear shape, subtle. Bags underneath the eye. Smile is asymmetrical.
Commoner! Lin Ling!!! Hair RETAINS slight curl from Nice, plus the eyes, iris, and ears! They’re the exact same when he was Nice. Hair style is asymmetrical. Smile is slightly asymmetrical. Latter two only changes.
MOON! Stays entirely symmetrical, including smile, mouth, nose, but her hair is more loose and as straight as possible once quitting, and is ofc messier. Kinda darker upper lip, like she's wearing lip stick, stays permanently. IDK! I LOVE HER!!!! FREEE MY GIRLLLLLLLLLL.
BONUS HC, horror edition! Nice + Moon could stay up for days but CAN'T have any eye bags because they're not expected to have any, so it literally cannot appear, visually. They can still feel the effects tho. Same with not eating. They won't look different (ex. they cannot gain or lose any weight because people don't believe/trust anything different) but they'll feel it. Unsettles them both!

more snippets because I am impatient lol. getting so much practice drawing my fav guy in the world, tho slowly whittling away at nailing how to draw Saheon, too. but it's so funny to me every panel with Soleum is perfection and Saheon is...there. I have favorites. Clearly.
Changed the lines a lil', but literally Saheon and Soleum's interactions are so interesting to me. Like, imagine your batshit insane coworker is a fucking improv cult leader. Meanwhile, Braun's thrilled to see Soleum being Fucking Sadistic to this One Guy.

getting better at art means some stuff just goes slower because I'm checking I like it before moving on, practicing skills or whatever, but also it goes slower so I wanna flip a table.

WIP: This is gonna take me like a bajillion years and it's like maybe a handful of lines (I am impatient lol), but BEHOLD, the REAL reason behind finalizing designs >:] Making scenes REAL. Or, like, visualized.

Gsgw HC designs :D Not entirely canonically accurate tbh, took liberties. I'm totally right guys tho, trust. Saheon implied to have dark eyes? Smh, they're gold, guys, source? Trust me bro. Minseong totally has a mole + double dimples, Haje rocks a bob, J3 has long hair, and gov't agency standard suits are open suit jackets with warmer color palette leaning into dark purples/brown, while corp has blue/grey with closed/button up. Youngeun has curly hair guys, trust me :/ she told me.
But, had so much fun with these omfg? Fought the same-face demons and actually won, I'm so happy messing with shapes! Literally kept drawing until I got winded/stuck.
