Miquel Watching The Sunset With Ash....

some concepts for a TTRPG post apocalypse school project

Population is concentrated in quite barricaded cities, the land between being pretty much a wasteland, too dangerous because of the zombies roaming around. However, the recency of the apocalypse means there are plenty of useful things just laying around, perfectly usable.

One of the 4 characters written.

Hunter - Survivalist Man - ~30 years old

Had a complicated life that pushed him to find many different strategies to survive with almost nothing. Pretty cold and serious, quite solitary and wary of others but he feels deeply alone. He was independent, unaffiliated with the revolutionaries, but he does share the drive to help others by looking to synthetize the treatment. He doesn't hesitate to hurt others or even kill to achieve that goal, but it's not a method he enjoys, he's far from being bloodthirsty.

Shark zombie When a person takes a dose of the new drug engineered by the governments, their body goes through micro mutations very fast, giving them strength, endurance... But when the effects wear off, the backlash on the body is extreme and the person ends up very weakened. If they stay too long in that disminished state, their brain dysfunctions and starts producing the drug by itself, to the price of some essential faculties, both mental and physical. The person then starts to mutare, taking animal-ish traits and, while still being perfectly alive, starts to act more like a zombie than a human.

Character design project!!

A story about a murderous but cute alien and a ghost guy becoming friends and going on adventures around the world, with the power of friendship and extreme violence !

The alien found a human spaceship, killed all the people inside and discovered a lot about human culture... So he he became a fan of Earth and decided to go there, pretending (very badly) to be a tiny human in a spacesuit. He can't speak (imitate some sounds at best) so he has to use a communication tablet (like the ones non verbal people may use)

The ghost is a very bitter guy haunting his own corpse, he originally helps the alien out of pity and exasperation but they become genuine best friends after a while !!

First explorations

Final design with some notes (it's in french sorry)

While the alien is a big fan of humans, he doesn't really realize that liking their taste is not exactly the best way to become friends with them... The ghost absolutely hates humans however, he likes peace and quiet more for his own comfort and really not out of consideration for human life...

Drawing expressions for them was funny, like yeah this little guy right here ? He's expressive as FUCK. Also we never see his face because it's always covered by his helmet...

I love how they're both huuuuge assholes but for completely different reasons.

Damien portrait (AU)

I have absolutely no fucking idea what I was trying to do here, I started it a while ago so I completely forgot

As much as I associate Damien (normal) with sunflowers, Damien (AU) is just... the Sun lol And not in a good way ? Like yeah he's bright and looks positive and shit but he's also Way Too Much All The Time, like CALM THE FUCK DOWN

I do like how his outfit and accessories change from the original version tho, the cross earring, the little chain on the glasses, the round lenses... He's pretty !!

If you say nice things (or just, things in general) about my art when you reblog using tags, know that I have no idea how to reply, I am completely clueless about how this site works but thanks a lot!!!

Human eating fairies

Concept art for school.

They are around 30cm tall with a big disproportionate "insect" head. Their hands and feet have only 4 fingers but they have one more knuckle compared to humans. All fairies have an ovipositor and are sexless.

The fairies have different heads depending on their role in the colony (there are no spider-fairies colonies, moth-fairies colonies, etc.).

For example, the Stag-Fairy is in charge of making a wooden baby, one of the things fairies use to hunt humans.

Humans living near fairies colonies can make them offerings in order to avoid being hunted. The fairies will then avoid hunting these humans specifically. However, if all the humans in the area make offerings, they will start hunting the ones who gave the least interesting gifts.

Offerings can be tools (like a letter opener or a bowl), clothes (doll clothes, cut socks...) or shelter. Clothes and shelter are their preferred offerings as they are particularly sensitive to cold.

While the fairies can live in pretty much any corners of the forest, they absolutely love human-made tiny houses that are much cozier and prettier than just living in a tree.

Fairies have a variety of ways to lure humans in their trap which takes the form of a web with an odd pattern. Despite having very little strings, it is incredibly effective as it is infused with magic.

Other examples of house offerings : birdhouses and doll houses.

Fairies have some kind of pet, big acarids that they use to dispose of waste (like human parts they don't eat).

When a human is lured into the fairies' trap, they start losing control of their body and slowly morph into an animal with a human face (usually sheep or pig). Fairies want to fatten their preys and doing so is easier with a pig or sheep's diet than a human's. It is unclear if the transformed humans are aware of their condition.

The fairies' singing and dancing is their main way of attracting humans in their trap, but when egg laying season approaches, they craft a living wooden baby. They then go into a human's house to steal a baby and replace it with their creation. The humans are affected by the magic put on the baby and do not notice the difference. Eventually, the parents will be lured in a fairy's trap as the wooden baby will try to go back to its creators, in the forest.

When egg laying season arrives, a queen is chosen : it has t be the strongest and most resistant of the colony as its body will not survive the process. The queen will be fed excessively as it begins to make eggs that will quickly fill its whole body. Its arms and legs will atrophy and become completely useless, its organs will be barely usable as well, just enough to keep it alive. Once the queen cannot hold any more eggs, it will use its ovipositor to lay eggs in the human baby the other fairies stole. This will kill the queen.

The eggs will quickly hatch once inside the baby and will start eating it from the inside. The larvae will feed and feed and, once big and strong, start shedding, becoming a young fairy.

The type of head they get depends on how much they fed on the baby.

Fairies do have a natural predator. Affectionately called "hat-worms" by humans, they're a magical being that work somewhat similarly to a mushroom. Their "hat" resembles a brain which intrigues fairies who are always looking for more food.

Once at range, the worm will infest a fairy through the holes in its chest, leaving there their "hat" to plug it. It will make it harder for the fairy to breathe (and resist). The worm will start by going to the brain to take control of it. Once done, it will start hollowing and filling the inside of the fairy with spores. It will then move the fairy close to the colony, fly high and explode, trying to spread the spores to as many other fairies as possible. The spores that do not directly infect a fairy become full worms.

One infected fairy can make a whole colony disappear, so seeing a parterre of worms is a sign of good luck for humans.

Ok so the polaroids I made and what they're about!! :)

"I think we've got something wrong on our cards..."

The twins ID cards, they're fake and they messed up their birth year so it's 1902 instead of 2002...

"Huh... it went splash :("

They bought a car... not the best idea since they're terrible drivers...

"Trainees !!!!"

They were trainees in the hospital for some time. Wasn't really their thing, they're better at getting hurt than helping others- The one in the middle is Artie, a doctor who looked very similar to Alan so he was kinda like their 3rd twin ?

"VineWood !!! It's us !!"

Their last name is Wood so when there are big letters with their name they just HAD to take a picture in front of them :')

"It's snowing!!!!"

When the snow came it was a lot of fun, they had a lot of snowball fights, including with strangers- Alan's outfit here was probably the worst he ever had ngl

"50 thelmahawaiian pizzas for the city hall"

The twins started working at a pizzeria/restaurant !!! The mayor Olivia (who's also the twins' parent but they didn't know it yet !!) bought 50 hawaiian pizzas... The prosecutor wasn't really happy about it, who's going to eat this ? Certainly not him. Also poor Alan was struggling with the numbers lol

Oh that one is a sad one :( That was not long after the twins learned that Olivia is their parent and that she disappeared (believed dead at the time). They went to the flood barrier to talk with Tanguy who promised that he'd never leave them alone. Not long after that, he adopted them officially as his children. They're a family !

Well. They had to buy a car for the restaurant, something classy and professionnal.... but the Wood's idea of "professionnal" isn't really what Tanguy had in mind. Look, there are dollar signs on the wheel !! It means it's a business car ! Also introducing Nora who quickly joined the team !

"We stole a dog !! (but not on purpose...)"

Nora and the twins (also called "the gremlins") once accidentally stole a dog. The owner just walked away and they decided to take care of the dog for a while... Not long after there was a "Missing : dog" post in the news and it really looked like this dog...

Tanguy's last name is Castagne so when the gremlins & Alice (the twins' adoptive big sister) decided to dress just like him to make him laugh that makes them the Castagnettes !

They also work at a vineyard (Tanguy's also the boss there) and it's funny to see that Nora's hair and the grapes is a bit similar sometimes.

"Commando training !"

The gremlins have two other friends, Emilio & Zacharie who decided to go in the mountains as a "commando training". They learned to avoid pumas and defending themselves, though it ended in a pretty chaotic way since Zacharie accidentally stabbed Emilio... They all had a picnic some time later to learn how to pressure someone...

Noralan date ! They actually met for the first time there, the gremlins immediately got along and became best friends. So when Alan & Nora have their first real date, it had to be somewhere special like this ! That was also their first kiss,,,

"Family"

Tanguy & Alice got the twins a necklace with pictures in the pendant for their birthday, right before they left the city. They'd be away for a while so that was a way to keep them close to their heart ! After they're also part of the twins' family now. It's something very special to them and they keep it on them at all times, especially when Tanguy died a few months later.

Letter from the Wood twins when they left the city with Nora

(it's all in french)

When they left they wrote a letter adressed to everyone they met there. It makes me a little bit sad that a number of the people mentioned died not long after lol

(the polaroids are partly by me, partly by my friend Kerizu)

I'll post my polaroids individually later :)
