| (I hope I'm posting here correctly; I read the rules but I wasn't sure how the tags are supposed to work and I also wasn't sure if 100% digital drawings are considered drawings or mixed media. I would be happy to edit my post if there's something I did wrong, and I apologize in advance if there is.)Welcome to my Dork Kingdom! Here are some drawings I've been working on entirely in PaintDotNet with the line tool. I've been trying to very closely recreate the '90s anime look for an illustrated fanfiction/fancomic project I'm making, with the working title "Serenity & Vitriol". I've been working on it for most of a year and had ideas for it churning in my brain ever since I got into the anime in 2011, and I've been slowly practicing toward that end, but I am hopeful about releasing it sometime in the next year (we'll see, no promises). I don't want to start releasing chapters or pages publicly until I'm confident the story is done. For now, here are some drawings from the preliminary stages of this project: My current model sheet of Naru's face (her expression is blank because it's for model purposes): Crystal Tokyo: Jadeite: Nephrite (not entirely happy with his face and hair here, and I'm going to change the epaulets on the second version later to more of a tasseled style): Kunzite and Zoisite (haven't done them in color yet, sorry): (That's a pink rose Zoisite is wearing. These would be the lighter colored uniform versions to go with the Jadeite and Nephrite above, which is also why I went for a more 'innocent' look for Zoisite, though I'm not sure if I succeeded.)And of course, Sailor Moon (I think I may tweak the design a bit more on this one): Not sure about naming this "new" form, but you can probably see what I did there design-wise. These next two provide a bit more of a hint about what the story involves... Naru?: (Idea inspired by John Biles and Shadowjack on the RPGNet Forums, from the "In Which I Watch Sailor Moon" threads. But I've put a bit of my own spin on the idea, too.) Umino?!: "Serenity & Vitriol" takes place in the anime's continuity, set partially in 31st-century Crystal Tokyo (about 100 yers after the time Chibi-Usa was from), and partially in the Golden Kingdom on Earth shortly before the fall of Silver Millennium on the Moon. The story revolves around the Dark Kingdom, but ties into many other events. The 'main' cast includes Naru, Usagi, Umino, Mamoru, Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoisite, Kunzite, Minako, Ami, Makoto, Rei, Luna, and Artemis. The secondary cast includes (but is not limited to) Beryl, Thetis, Professor Tomoe, Hotaru, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, the DD Girls, Chbi-Usa, and many more characters also appear. If you're curious about the story, I'd be happy to answer some questions , and I talked a little bit about the concept behind that picture Naru in my introductions thread. To repeat the partial spoiler explanation I posted there: - Spoiler:
In her past life, Naru was Vitriol, daughter of Beryl (the general idea of Naru's mom secretly living a double life as Queen Beryl came from John Biles), and during the Golden Kingdom part of the story we see she was effectively the first minion tasked with collecting energy for Queen Metallia. This was back when Prince Endymion and the Shitennou were the heroes of the land, before anyone realized what Beryl was up to. Later, Vitriol asked for her powers to be sealed by the Shitennou in order to prevent her from being possessed by Metallia like what happens to Beryl at the end of season 1. There's also a bunch of other stuff that happened in between, and immediately afterwards a lot of stuff started going horribly wrong, of course.
There's bigger spoilers, such as Vitriol having an unrealized power before Queen Metallia's influence on her and Beryl, and the question of what happens to Naru in the future because of all this, but I won't get into the details of that here just yet...
I might be interested in beta-readers for "Serenity & Vitriol" down the road if anyone would like to see a prerelease draft closer to time (to be handled via PMs, e-mail, or some other format), but not just yet- I'd like to get the ending done before I show anyone and ask for feedback. And I'm not going to post the story publicly until it's completed. But if you're interested, let me know and I'll make sure to let you know when I'm ready (whenever that may be). Thanks for looking! |

| Thank you, everyone! ^^ I really appreciate it, and I'm feeling very encouraged now. I've been steadily working on character model stuff for the hypothetical comic version to see if I can do the set up to put together a comic version of my story semi-quickly. Hopefully I will have more to post here later! |

| Consider talking with mangaka-chan, having written her own manga she has a lot of experience with that sort of thing. ^_^ |

| Foolish humans, offer up your energy to the great ruler, Queen Metalia! Mwa ha ha!! But seriously, thanks for the kind words, everyone! I've been preoccupied with moving during the past couple months, but I'm hoping to get back into the swing of this a bit more. I'm not dead, just very slow... |

| I recently resurrected my Deviantart account! (Beware that some of the non-Sailor moon content on there is marked as Mature, however, with adult and/or disturbing themes not suitable for general audiences. Especially my older stuff was a bit unhinged and dark.) Here's a few newer pieces I decided to incude! They're all a little odd though. Unfinished early attempts at designs for Prince Endymion's parents, the rulers of the Golden Kingdom: . Sprites for a lot of major characters (most of whom exist in the manga or anime, but some have new costume details which are probably hard to discern at this tiny scale). A few are new characters, like Aethlius and Calyce, Aethlius' father King Aeolus, and two other minor new villains for the Golden Kingdom backstory (based on Zeus and Hera); a few are very obscure characters like Keiko Tomoe (far right past the Witches 5), Tamasaburou (the tea ceremony kid from that one S episode), and M.C. Fly. These sprites are based on Another Story, but a bit smaller scale and with simpler/brighter colors. I was toying with using them for one iteration of my story, but now I'm not sure if I will or not. I am still working on the story in any case though. If anyone wants to see them at 1X scale, they're here. This last one requires even more explanation. I'll quote my deviantart page about it: - Quote :
- In the very first episode of the '90s Sailor Moon anime, there lurks a shadowy figure seen by none. He stands behind the counter inside the Game Center Crown, in a shot showing the poster for the Sailor V game. He is never seen again (or is he?!)...
Jadeite McSwag discovered this strange character, and made a video about his findings. Hereby dubbing this mystery man to be Motoki's father and the owner of Crown, I have been thusly inspired to try to draw that which was not meant to be seen.
His, erm, Charlie Chaplin-esque moustache might've come out a little odd, and the proportions seem weird (but I tried to keep them extremely faithful), and I think he's wearing a frilly/wrinkly baggy sleeved shirt. Going by that guesswork, here he is in all his splendor. What deeds has this man done offscreen? What strange sights has he beheld? This little zoom-and-enhance operation is but one small step in trying to perceive his hidden inner depths, yet the mystery may never be fully solved... Motoki's father (maybe)?: |

| I also made this tonight! I'm not sure if it'll be involved in my story or not but it was fun to make. These (and previous/other stuff) can also be seen on my deviantart page as linked in the post above (or in my profile). As mentioned, viewer discretion is advised if you look around non-Saior Moon parts of my deviantart as there are some mature and disturbing things on it. |
