While working on the designs of Neue & AU Variants, along with their overall character, you all can ask questions/suggestions to the characters or me.
Most of these will probably be answered through text, but I might draw a few of the characters answering the questions.
You can either leave questions on this blog or through my profile.
Fun Little Idea For Those Who Have Artblock Or Want Something To Draw
Ok so this is gonna sound a bit strange, but hear me out.
What if the concept of cowboys originated from a different country?
Often the term/idea of cowboys is often associated with the U.S.
However, the origins of the cowboy tradition is from the Spanish, starting in 1519 when the Spanish arrived in the Americas. It started in Mexico, where the native cowboys were called “Vaqueros”.
Basically this challenge is to come up with a concept/appearance of “cowboys” if they originated or are associated with a different country.
Lineart For the Seamstress Overlord
I had fun drawing this one, but had some trouble drawing the eyes.
I took some inspiration from “Downtown Abbey” when designing the clothes.
Gonna say more about her when I post the finished version.
Now that I got the basic idea of what the Theatre Overlords will look like, I’m gonna be doing a redraw/redesign for fix proportions, colors, and make changes in overall design.
First we have Walle, the Artist Overlord.
I used Niffty and Millie as reference for drawing the body and colors.
I shortened the length of the limbs, torso, and “horns”, I also enlarged the head. I decided to make the veins on the arm less complicated for easy reference.
I decided to add small lashes to his eye, and added bug wings since he’s based off a stag beetle.
I also adjusted/changed the colors so that they are less faded and more bright like in the show.
There will be a total of 7 Overlord OCs, however, 6 of these Overlords work under the 7th Overlord.
The 7th Overlord owns only 6 souls, the 6 other Overlords, but receives a share of souls that the Overlords managed to contract.
Most of these Overlords died some time during the 19th-20th centuries, while the 7th died in the 18th century.
All 7 Overlords have occupations and themes relating to theater/drama entertainment, essentially working together similarly to the Vs.
These are the “industries” that each of the Overlords work/rule in:
Opera
Ballet
Artist
Seamstress
Orchestra
Playwright
Puppetry
Each of these Overlords will have different ethnicities which will be revealed below.
He/Him

If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to comment down below and I’ll try to answer without giving too much away.
I was gonna wait until I draw/redraw all of them, but it’s gonna take some time, so I’ll just put a list of the sinners/hellborns that are working or have worked in the SA Theatre. I don’t have names yet for the Puppetified characters yet, but I’m gonna list what they did at the SA Theatre, when and how they died, and some facts about them when they were alive.

Here is the finished final draft for Roman:
Also here’s the lineart for just the body as well:
I have finally finished the character sheet for my OC: Mati!
I’ll be creating another character sheet for Mati to explain Mati’s abilities & effects on the residents/visitors of Gravity Falls.
Here’s a pic of the character sheet without the words:
And here’s one with a different background & showing Mati’s name:
A lil sneak peek of what’s (or rather who’s) next
Neue will have a different name in each universe to help differentiate from each other, so Underfell Neue will be called “Roman”.
Here is the Rough Draft:
So I based this version off a Pygora Goat, which is a bit shorter than an Angora Goat.
Roman’s hair is definitely more unkempt than Neue’s, his horns are more outward than upward, he’s also shorter and thicker than Neue.
There’s one bit of information that I’m still debating on, but if you look at his design you might be able to figure it out.
So it might be a hot minute before I post anything.
This is due to trying a new art style for the characters, along with redesigning the info cards for the virus & characters.
I’m also working & doing some research to improve the concept of the virus, including information regarding: Symptoms, Probability for Infection & Factors that could effect Probability, Variants & Mutations of the Virus, Origin, How it 1st Spread & How it Spreads, & the overall story.
However I feel bad for making you all wait, so I’ll drop some information regarding the Reach Virus:
The Probability for which variant you’ll get is based on the Blood Type.
Each Variant will have its own set of Mutations, some that could be seen as a “Positive Defective”.
The “Creator” of the Virus is someone we all know.
Be careful of the fruits you eat😉
Colder the Better!
