Sketch Meister @ Thursday, October 10th 2024, 8:55 PM

Malice comes in many forms. Where one forms from the angst and delusions of a young man, another forms from something more primal.

o3o So yeah. Darren can explain this one.

GoldClaw @ Thursday, October 10th 2024, 9:38 PM

Right so. As Cam has said Malice can take many forms. But sometimes Malice can from a more primal source. An instinctual hatred rooted to our core.

The Digimental of Malice plays on a person's own hatred. Growing in strength the more hatred, the more malicious feelings they have. Currently this Digimental has not made an appearance in setting, but it will as somepoint. It can neither be associated with the SINS nor with the Madness. It is it's own category or maybe it doesn't fit into any Digimental Category. Time will tell when it appears, and it's source may be revealed one day as well.

This Digimental idea came from too many sources to list, but Mononoke was a big one. The idea of a Digimental empowering and amplifying a person's or digimons hatred was appealing because in hate, in Malice, it does not matter if it is person who is good natured or ill natured. Is either good or evil. Jovial or an asshole. Malice is universal, and even the best mannered and good natured person will harbor some form of malice in their heart.

Sketch Meister @ Saturday, July 27th 2024, 11:09 PM

Been a DAMN long while since we've seen Iris and her Fairleomon formation for Lagomon cuz...well...that required redesigns we never got to. ^^;; After realizing that crap, we actually need her for the Malice Arc, it was time to hunker down and get her visualized. After several ref pics for styles, trying to edge away from some of the African iconography in some aspects and also tie in Iris now having Dinoforce integrated with her LoE, I got this put together.

Crescent @ Saturday, July 27th 2024, 11:19 PM

Yeah, design looks great o 3o Did an awesome job at capturing enough of Fairleomon's original design while injecting a whole lot of where Iris is nowadays. And then on top of that, great work taking the couple refs we were throwing around for the redesign and diversifying them with some unrelated ones to get to something that feels really original.

Akurei Nagisa @ Saturday, July 27th 2024, 11:25 PM

Ohhh hohoho NICE. As a major “hmmmm”-person on the old FairLeomon design, I’m excited about this one. 8D That Amazonian build and that gauntlet and the grin.

I do wonder if we could put in more Wuk Lamat to the facial features without going back to the old design? I’m probably the only one, though, so. >_>;

OK so it wasn't "later today" but I've been stewing on these for a little bit and after binging 30-minute loops of the English dub version of Mega Man X 4's theme song we now have a proper showcase of the Royal Knight Armed Forces emblems. Base, army, air force, and navy. This doesn't include special units like Omegamon's XIII Arms unit also known as the Inquisitors or UlforceVeedramon's Tensegrity Unit, but hey, now we have an image to go with the anti-human sentiment.

Akurei Nagisa @ Sunday, July 21st 2024, 2:20 PM

Two of the four Yggdrasil-backed human factions have visited the secretive and sacred Zone of the Impfelmon, beholding the tower that holds a Digimon Yggdrasil and Ragnarok sealed away long ago. Why for? What made them seal it and not outright destroy it? Only time will tell.

And time is running out.

This was really fun, not gonna lie. Once I got in the groove I didn't even need side projects to keep my busy. ^^

A loooot of Markiplier videos died in the making of this one, though. Thank the lord that man has a backlog.

This was fun to help Cam with. I love how it all turned out. I might have to get a sequel piece to this, but instead it would be the Zone above Ar'Ro with the spire tip.

Sketch Meister @ Tuesday, July 16th 2024, 1:01 AM

So this was a fun one. Years ago and yes I mean literal years Evie was working on concepts for an OC she could use for lewd storytelling, and in her studies she passed me over this drawing of a lass with horns licking at a popsicle (giggity). She couldn't think of anything to do with it so seeing Katharine in it I decided to take a swing!

....Now years later as I desperately try to get more drawings out before I see if this coming school year will break me I decided to go back into the unfinished WIP file and after several hours of music where I wasn't working on a commission this came out.

...And then adjustments.

....And then I said I needed more of her body in the shot.

...Look, Regulus is miserable thanks to the current arc, Katharine is miserable thanks to the current arc, assume this is afterwards. >.>

Honestly, if you can salvage my stream of mind sketches that I get too frustrated with like this one, I'd feel a lot better about doing those kinds of sketch dumps more often. There were SO many issues with the pose cause I didn't have my figure drawing fundamentals down - I still don't feel like I do, but watching you fix it helped me understand my frustrations with it in the first place. <3

ShiPainter

Sketch Meister @ Wednesday, July 10th 2024, 6:41 PM

There are many rebel groups within the Digital World, those that are strongly against the rule of the Royal Knights!

But everyone knows the old saying about "too many cooks spoil the soup", and with so many with no guiding principle everyone is against the Royal Knights for their own personal gain.

Among them is Beast Out. A rebellion group that first appeared in-game during the Second Fangear Rebellion led by Peter Elric. A massive campaign to take the Tower of Yggdrasil, it fell apart when the Royal Knights were able to screw up their time tables. Many rebels were deleted that day, with Beast Out making it off the field and consolidating many of the surviving Beast Digimon that participated in other groups into the fold. Their desire for the Digital World? Beast Digimon supremacy, of course. They've also been harboring the former partner of Guardian Lion and have kept him in a very malleable mental state...

So yeah, I figured they've been in some threads, are in one right now, and will appear again during and after the Malice Arc, so I figured I should slap this one together.

That’s these guys! They say the mark of whether you’ve got real power in Section I is whether you wear the emblem as a patch or badge (low-ranking LABYRINTH personnel have to do this) or you get to have it as a cool lapel pin (Zoe Early has a very prominent pin with a very bright red “I”.)

So Cam and I are talkin, Aquan Digimon fuckers get mentioned, AND I tell him that hey a DU version of this group would…just be Aquan fuckers. That’s it, that’s the club’s (w)hole goal. AND NOW THEY EXIST

Seventh Seat of GEMINI Division and Vice President of St. Eld's Student Council, Ianthe is a flamboyant theatre kid to her very core.

As a seated officer she is a ringbearer, in her case equipped with the Truth Ring by her commanding officer. I was told her flamboyance extends to her eyewear, and binging Kamen Rider Legend (GORGEOUS) clips contributed to what was originally a pretty simple design you could find in any glasses store.

Colorful dragon butts o 3o

They are all nice but I'd probably say Malacandramon's my favorite here, those side clasps are nice u 3u

Fant-ass-tic! I'm going to get beat up now, aren't I?

..FINE THIS IS THE LAST ONE. DX

Jammin's shades. He is punk down to his bones, having a regent hairstyle and wearing his uniform open and for the longest time without a shirt under it. He believes in absolute manliness, brothers helping brothers, and tough love!

That has not stopped him from appreciating cute things, however. Or rather, cute girls. The cuter the better! As such he has a poorly hidden crush on Vice-Captain Nepeta, and for whatever reason can't grasp the fact that she is off the market and was probably never interested in her. He respects Regulus, and even with his rough and tumble mannerisms is concerned about his leader becoming so ruthless in the wake of the Malice Phenomena. His partner is the most manly cat, Otokatmon.

Also, he might be a little nervous about Sixth Seat Puma Fang coming for his position, especially as he was one of Puma's bullies way back when.

Watch out, Jammin u 3u

I do like how he's always looked like a punk side character straight out of several anime XD

There is only one road to redemption, Jammin u_u

It is through a manly mustache

Back in pic #1248 drew the top five officers of LEO Division, and there was a red mark on the face of 4th Seat Taniya Richards. It was a tattoo common among LEO Division officers during the era of Regulus's predecessor Alexander Hercules, who at the time ran things like a roving and violent gang.

Once Regulus took over the brand became something that meant one of two things:

1. You were the old guard and survived the gauntlet to remain in LEO Division. You wear this emblem as a reminder of where you came from.

2. You were more loyal to Hercules than Noinheim, and you weren't staying long.

Back to banner work!

...I hope. D8

Yay distractions > 3>

It's neat to see the full emblem, though. Especially since it has lingering mission.

I hate how I wanted a warm up while I worked on this banner and it became a design study. 8D;

But hey! Akurei's sword has art! The Wookie can explain it from here. Some of the design beats came as I was drawing like the crossguard being based on a service revolver, but he can go into that.

Akurei Nagisa @ Tuesday, June 18th 2024, 5:47 PM

Sorry about that. XD; But as you had fun and the final product is really boss-looking we’ll call it okay.

Anyhow this is the current form of Onitokkou (“Oni-Slayer”, yes that’s what the reference), familial samurai sword of the Nagisa family. It was first wielded by the Sword-Saint who invented the Akusenkutou-ryu school that Akurei, Regulus, and others famously use; it’s passed down to the eldest in the Nagisa line, and they all make slight adjustments to the blade for their own comfort.

In the case of Motoru, Akurei’s famous uncle and Saiga’s former partner in the CCPD, he disliked the CCPD service revolver, feeling that it was too frequently used in err—so he took his apart, melted it down, and hammered it into a rotatable tsuba. The commissioner was furious, but what are you gonna do?

Akurei has made the most radical adjustments yet, given that he’s had it reinforced with Demon Metal from Soullock and infused the sword blade itself with Lost Drive transmission veins, enabling it to transform and take on new shapes as the Preserver needs; it’s also given the blade a bit of a sassy “personality”, though it seems to defer to Akurei in a pinch.

Crescent @ Tuesday, June 18th 2024, 5:58 PM

Ooh o 3o The Lost Drive veins give the blade a nice look and the sheathe's design is really cool

...I have no idea how this came to be I was just watching Kamen Rider and eating lunch but sure, let's just whip up the mask of one of LEO Division's NPCs and one I have for some odd reason been working on recently. Hell, I even have a profile for him ready to post why am I like this?

Crescent @ Thursday, June 13th 2024, 4:47 PM

We all know why >_>

I dig it. Cool design, bit different from our existing ones, nottop complicated, red highlights it well.

Verita: Yes.

Sketch Meister @ Thursday, June 13th 2024, 4:50 PM

I blame you. I have an addiction to the masked warrior/pilot archetype and you're the one that kept feeding me Gundam shows.

Akurei Nagisa @ Thursday, June 13th 2024, 9:11 PM

Oh shit this is really cool, I dig it! 8D It’s got like…this wonderful mix of KR helmet old school and the SEED mask, like Rau’s and Mu La Flaga without you know, the evil or the brainwashing.

Ianthe: The ears are an especially neat touch! ^ o^/
