Phew! After 10 long busy days, im finally able to sit down and work on something digitally art related! A more personal drawing before I work on commissions.
Ah yes, Cedric and his daughter, Autumn (Who is an oc of mine of course).

... DATABRAWL OCS!!!
Most made for a board I am making with person I know, while others I made just for fun!
If anybody wants any.. background info or such, I'll be willing to give!
here's one of them tumblr_shl4k2i7DY1wtv326_720.mp4
buddy that's a filename
he presents his beans to you. will you squish them?
Blue’s song from Homeworld Bound :)
(image id in alt, i hope!)
hence nothing remains except for our regrets
sometimes you just gotta smash your interests together like playdough!!! here's the Great God Grove gods in OFF's style!
shoutout to @weirdalchemy for the sketch of Huzzle Mug's pose and a ton of help in working out the other ones!
the full-sized + unsprited sketches / some assorted rambling under the cut!
turning them into little 200px max sprites lost some of the detail i really enjoyed on some of them (thespius basically lost all of his hair flowers, and bauhauzzo lost a few nice rock-chipping details i was super fond of u_u), so i figured i'd include my sketches also!
a few extra design notes from while i was trying to figure everything out
i wanted to keep Miss Mitternacht really simple, and tried to lean into the early-game boss sort of look! (i was also trying to remember how to get the sketchy-pencil texture to translate into the smaller versions, oops)
Cobigail and Inspekta were the first ones i thought of when i decided to make all of them! Cobigail's jumpscare face was an instant pick, even if i lost all of those extra little lines in the spriting process
drawing typewriters is a nightmare. people who draw Click Clack all the time at his typewriter are stronger than i could possibly imagine
i got stuck on Thespius for a while, and he was the second to last one i finished - he's a lover, not a fighter!!! i wound up sort of trying to take an angle similar to Sugar's in OFF, an optional boss who you have to deliberately go for (i have this distinct vision in my mind of a boss track for him called "Swansong")
Bauhauzzo is meant to look kind of stuck in the ground, like an obelisk!
Inspekta was taken for sort of a "busted doll" look, from that bit in the art book where they said he was animated to "move like a plushie"! he was my favorite of the bunch to work on, even if the hands were kind of a Situation
it was kind of a bummer that more of King's eye-veil didn't turn out in the sprite, but i couldn't quite find a way to make it show up without making it hide her face too much! people drawing her posing with the sword was a huge source of inspiration, though, it just felt right
i might do more of these sometime soon - maybe the Bizzyboys as a sort of group fight? i also thought about doing a Godpoke Batter type of look but i couldn't quite figure out how to finagle that, but i may try again later on!
Woaogghhh love this funky puppet man way too much
