AM.

My OC Nora and the silly Intruder :)

valentines designs i made for fun

i thought too hard about insect motifs got a little silly and made... a lot lmao these versions of the characters are from @sm-baby's amazing digital carnival au!! full images and rambling about insect choices are gonna get stuck under the cut... it'll be a bit long and i will be putting photos of real bugs down there so be mindful

pomni: "butterfly"

inspirational species are black swallowtails mostly for the shape, and malay red harlequins mostly for the pattern

carnival pomni's actually the one that kickstarted this whole set... i drew her hat in a way that reminded me of butterflies, went "wait...", then i fully leaned into it :)

jax: "centipede"

there was no specific species for jax. without being able to use color, they were too similar to pick any out... i have included a giant centipede just for reference though since it was mainly larger centipedes i used for inspiration

anddd there's a little bonus sketch for how pre-sentience jax might've looked with a centipede outfit... he gets a bug scarf and some goggles!

ragatha: "ladybug"

inspirational species was the twice-stabbed ladybug chosen because the inverted color scheme looked the best out of all the ones i tried, and also because it's a metal name and we know ragatha's good with a knife... stabby stab... i did add more than two spots to the dress though, it just looks cooler lol

gangle: "spider"

inspiration was the spinybacked orb weaver which i was absolutely ecstatic to find because come on that is the perfect spider for gangle like look at it!! it looks like her mask, it's got red, it's got gold on the limbs, literally twinning

zooble: "mantis"

inspiration was the spiny flower mantis which, like with gangle, i feel is pretty much perfect for zooble... they come in many colors (including pink), have abstract patterns, and it gave me the excuse to cover zooble in spikes :D fun

and no kaufmo because i'm lazy and he's dead (sorry kaufmo fans but am i wrong), and the rest don't have bug names that i know of?

i still want to draw the carnival characters in their regular looks sometime, i just got really really inspired by the idea of secret skins and bug-themed outfits and went a liiittle haywire :P

anyways if you read all that you're a real one and you've got too much time on your hands... if you didn't, i understand, i get wordy, sorry :'D okay i think that's all byeee

WHERE ON EARTH DID YALL COME FROM MY GOD-

Anyways I made some renders of the rest of the IHNMAIMS cast because blah 💥

RAAAAAAAAAAGH 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Hiya everybody, it’s been a while so take a conjoined doodle!

Ok guys but SWAN will be more of a bird instead of a computer head so here’s his concept design, I’ll make a drawing of the little bird man soon :)

All done with SWAN! I don’t exactly have current lore for him yet but I’m working on his backstory.

I might redesign him a bit as he looks a bit too similar to one AM design I saw :(

me: i dont like gangnam style

you: yeah me nei-

me: PSY-ch!

Poob!

Yet another WIP, I’m getting close to finishing this!

Still related to Intruder BTW, Hence the tags but once I finish up you’ll get to see Intruder!

I am indeed still cooking

Possible I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream OC??

His name is SWAN, I don’t know what I’ll do with his story but I love them :)
