Ask about the above OC's VISUAL DESIGN

Posted 5 years, 8 months ago (Edited 1 year, 6 months ago) by RadiantRaindragon

Hello and welcome!

This is a question game specifically for talking about characters' physical appearances. Their outfit? Their hairstyle? Their scars? An accessory they always wear or a sword they always carry? You get the idea.


15/02/2019:

To help clarify what kinds of questions are allowed in this game, I've made a list of correct and incorrect examples! Hopefully this should help out anyone who's stuck thinking of a question!


Format example:

Person 1's post: Why does Spike have a necklace of house keys? Edit: Adder got the scar during a criminal job that went a little wrong.

Person 2's post: Where did Adder get that scar from?

You can post IC if you want the next person to question a specific character, or you can post OOC and let them pick for themselves. If you post IC, try to stick to characters that have something noteworthy in their designs - while there's nothing wrong with more plain characters, it can be hard to think of an interesting question about them.


-Rules-

1. Stick to the theme of the game. Your post must include at least one question related to the character's design. You are allowed to ask non-design questions as extras.
2. Don't be rude or passive-aggressive towards other people or their characters in any way.
3. Wait for at least 3 people to post before you go again (unless over 12 hours have passed since the last post, then it's fair game for anyone).
4. All characters must have at least one, SFW art piece. This means characters with no art, or only 18+/filtered art, cannot be posted. You are allowed to skip people if they have no art or only 18+/filtered art.
5. Please do not post the same character repeatedly. This is to lessen repetition of the game.
6. Do not skip people (unless they're breaking Rule 4). Even if the above user has blocked you, that is not valid reason for skipping them.

I actively monitor the thread for rule-breaking, but if you think I missed something, please PM me and let me know.


If you break rules: Depending on the severity of the situation, I may either PM you with a warning or immediately ban you from the game. Regardless of severity, you can be banned if you repeatedly break rules.

What influenced crayola's design :00

--- 

HFKJDD it was heavily inspired by the outfit designs by hyv actually! His main outfit was heavily inspired by Blade since he was the main inspiration for Bi'an's design but for like his fancy outfit that was specifically inspired by the outfits hyv women tend to wear, especially ningguang and yelan (he will get more I want to spoil my bbg 💕💕💕💕)

What inspired their clothing? It looks super neat!

(Since he doesn’t have a full reference, feel free to ask about anything of him from his old reference or his Fullbody sketch!)

vvv Originally they were kinda held together by magic, however in his new concept they’ll be held together more by tissue and such!

Ludovic wolvykasu

So I do have a question, are the bones parts connected with some sort of tissue or is it magical ? (either way they are rad as hell)

Erin yanderechips

How do his horns work? Does he have nerves in them and can feel through them?

Fuiji Baisol

For their other horn that is broken, how did it happen? And is it kept like hidden in the hair? I noticed it shows up in a few drawings only

V I'm confused? What do you mean exactly?

V nothing, i just wanted a black and white palette ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Are the colours in the design actual crayola colours/shades??

\/ The thing is I don't know, I'm playing him in a campaign where he has memory loss so I'm not given a lot of information. All i know is that it is cannon and probably belongs to a different npc named Officer(who has a suit I suspect previously belonged to Agent). Then it just kinda stuck cause I loved drawing him in it.

I see a few drawings of Agent rocking a dress, now I must know is there some in-lore reason for this (like maybe he likes to wear that from time to time, or had to dress up for a mission or something), or were those just for funsies?

v Yeahh probably just a random shell she found and thought looked cool. She's not really the sentimental type, and doesn't tend to give items much meaning.

Anastasia RadiantRaindragon

Is there a special story behind the shell around her neck, or was it just a random shell that she liked enough to pick up?


(Volunteering Ana, but feel free to ask about anyone.)

Regin Affaveux Lattskull

Is there anything significant about the clock on their necklace or is it simply broken? and why does it only show 4'oclock?

v Ah! yeah actually :] The mushrooms growing on her are from the demon that controls her. It just keeps growin on her dress no moatter how hard she tries to get rid of them

Meena Tang spoilk

love her design!! is there a specific reason for the mushrooms on her clothing?/is it part of the look or does she control them herself?

—-

her hair is usually up for security! It’s more comfy for her, and it’s better for fights. She probably takes it down when she sleeps. 

Irl I made her pants like that specifically bc I wanted to base her off of tang fish! In canon, she‘s pretty fashionable, and the shape of the bottom not only gives her agility on land but allows her to swim quicker in the water!

Solitudine lezbtron

spoilk hihi! Is there a particular reason she has her hair up and has she ever had it down before? Similarly, is there any story to how she got her pants? To me they contrast nicely and I just think the yellow is neat!! :) any reason she picked em as a part of her fit ?

Zhelo thalassophobic

lezbtron What are the little dangly bits draped over him on some of his art? Were they part of his original design when his creator made him?


⬇ Ooohh, this one has an interesting answer. Originally, I had this idea that all Jesnari (members of Zhelo's species) are born with wings, but the wings are surgically removed soon after they hatch. It's got to do with restricting their freedom of movement, and it seemed like fitting symbolism, considering their story is about escaping/rebelling against an authoritarian government. I did scrap that idea when I decided I wanted to have some Jesnari with wings as design elements. Still, no Jesnari can fly without using tech augments.

So, uh... Why doesn't Zhelo have wings? I didn't think it would add much to their design, especially since they wouldn't be able to use them to fly anyway.

Marshell tartintart

thalassophobic since Zhelo is based on bees, how come they don't have wings? 

V I dunno, I thought of Donald Duck when designing.
