Ask me anything! by Zeyphr

Questions of any nature (given they arent too personal or arent political) are accepted! Ask about my worlds! Ask about my OC's! Ask about...anything? Anything! I will often give my reply in the comments, but there is a chance I will draw the answer too.

@Lunatic_Biscuit

It varies a lot between each one! A lot of the time, I draw whatever looks cool to me or would fit the character's personality at the time.

In particular, Pistil's design was based on a dream. The core of DRBL and some of Kai's design traits (clawed feet, silver hair) come from dreams too.

I do struggle when it comes to designing humans, though, because their form is so familiar to us. Everything looks boring designing them. I find it easier to design non-humans like Alura, Thorns, and Hiro.

Some characters belong to me while having been designed by others -- Obscuro and Deceptive, to name a few. Xachron is actually based on a redesign of an old version of him created by a friend. The hair sticks out more and he has a sharp chin.

Why does Kai squishy?

@welle
HE NO SQUISHY!

...Okay, actual answer: Kai showing his more vulnerable emotions -- sadness, affection -- are part of his growth as a character. Kai puts up emotional walls around himself to not show his "human weakness", so he must learn he is allowed to feel vulnerable and to let his guard down when it's not needed.
