Rough Draft Of Nova (Outertale Neue)

Neue AU Headshot Rough Drafts: Crimson

Here are the rough draft headshots for Crimson: Horrortale Neue:

I may have overdone it the hair, but in my defense: he hasn’t had his character arc/development yet. The basic idea is that Crimson is super insecure & self-conscious about his appearance (especially his face), so his hair is super long & thick to cover a good majority of his face.

You can’t really tell due to how the headshot is cropped, but one of his horns completely broke off with the base barely sticking out from his hair.

Also he’s gonna be one of few that’ll still have the “goat” eyes because it just looks natural on him & ~aesthetic~.

For reference regarding the hair, horns & ears; he’s based of the Dutch Landrace Goat (Picture not mine, found on Google):

Here’s a line of the headshot rough drafts so far:

Some Quick Facts About the Upcoming Overlord OCs!!!

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

Each of these Overlords will have different ethnicities which will be revealed below.

Meet a new addition to the Smiling Critters: SLEEPY SHEEPY

Text in Photo: Sleepy Sheepy is a calm, yet wise critter; soft-spoken and will happily give helpful advice to any of their friends. Their best advice? To get a good night’s rest. After all, you can’t have a fun filled day if you can barely keep your eyes open.

Scent: German Chamomile

————————————————————————

I’m gonna be doing each character in 3 different styles: the cartoon depiction, the Bigger Body depiction, & one where I basically do an overly detailed redesign because why not.

I’m not gonna lie, in order to get the proportions & style right, I used a technique I saw on YouTube where you basically use different body parts of the critters to create a character.

I also tried to use font that looked similar, but I couldn’t find one that was exactly the same, so sorry if the fonts weird.

I used Bobby’s torso, Bubba’s left arm, Craftycorn’s legs, & Baba’s right arm & head. The wool, face ears, horns, tail, & pendant I freestyle.

I really like how Sleepy turned out and I can’t wait to do the rest, especially the bigger body versions cause I like taking cute things and make them scary.

Also I know the poll isn’t over yet, but I originally wanted it to be open for a few days, not a whole week. Based off the results so far, it seems that I’ll be doing Mary Little next.

One of Mati’s Favorites

I’m gonna be “Mati-fying” some more characters from the show.

I’m obviously gonna be doing the Pines (Should I do Dipper first or Stanford first), but I’ll do a few others as well (probably Gideon, Soos, Wendy, and of course our favorite demonic acute angled fiend: Bill).

Anyway, here is the Mati’s impersonation of Stanley:

Now I’ll probably need to explain a bit more regarding the limitations of Mati’s impersonation ability.

1. While Mati can impersonate hand-held objects/prop, it would be made from Mati’s body, meaning Mati can’t “let go” of said impersonating object, the same goes for accessories (hats, jewelry, gloves, etc.) Mati prefers not to impersonate these types of objects while impersonating due to the reasons stated above.

2. While impersonating an individual with glasses, Mati is unable to replicate glass from Mati’s body, resulting in the frames being empty.

3. Mati has certain impersonations that Mati will use for specific situations, but specifically ones that can “fight”, and will often replicate any weapons that the real individual has used (hence why Mati’s Stanley has brass knuckles).

4. If there’s an eye feature/design on the individual’s clothing/accessories, Mati will replicate the eye design has an actual eye, meaning Mati can see through that eye as well.

5. Mati can combine the features of a few individuals (it’s easier if the individuals have similar features to each other), or different ages/phases of a single individual (ex: combining the features of Stanley pre-portal and post-portal).

Here is one without the fez:

Who should I “Mati-fy” next?

Possible More AU Variants of Neue

I’m experiencing low motivation for drawing, but I’m still working on the clothing rough drafts.

However, I am gonna be adding more AU Variants of Neue. These variants won’t have a big impact on the story or none at all (at least for now), but I think they’ll be fun to draw.

Now a few of these AUs will be my own version/redesign, not because I don’t like the original concept, this is just my own spin on them.

Dancetale

-IDK what type of dance this Neue will have, since Toriel is Waltz & Sans is Hip-Hop.

-I could see him being one of these options:

•A combination of both

•Waltz or Hip-Hop, or some variation of them

•Something entirely unrelated to both

Birdtale

-While the original just has the characters have wings on their backs (& I’ve seen some with talon/clawed feet), I’m gonna up the “bird” characteristics a bit more.

-The arms will be replaced with wings & the lower parts of the legs will look like talons.

-The nose/top part of the mouth will vaguely look similar to a beak.

-They’ll be based off a species of birds or a combination of 2-3 birds.

•For this version of Neue, he’ll be based off the Himalayan Griffon & the Collared Scops-Owl.

Reapertale

-This version of Neue would be the “child” of Life & Death. IDK what the correct terminology would be for this, but they would “rule” represent the realm between life & death.

-Their name is Purgatory, which might change if I can find a more accurate name for this, & they would play an interesting rule for this AU.

•They would decide if a soul deserves a second at life or if they must pass on into the afterlife.

•This would mainly affect individuals who are in a comatose state, or if they died “too early”.

Oceantale

-While the original was based more on mythical creatures (with the exception of a few), I’m gonna based this Neue’s design off real life sea creatures.

-They could either be based off a singular sea creature, or a combination of 2-3 species.

•For this version of Neue, they’ll be based off the Leafy Seadragon, Lion’s Mane Jellyfish & the Whale Shark.

Angeltale

-The original was similar to appearance of Birdtale, with the characters just having wings on their backs. So I’m gonna change them to look similar to nightmare fuel that is the “biblical accurate angels”.

-They would have 2 forms:

•Their true form which would be the equivalent of “biblically accurate angels”.

•The “Be-Not-Afraid” form which would give them a more “normal” appearance similar to their Undertale counterpart with some angel-like features.

Deltarune

-You know I had to include this for funsies.

-In this AU, Neue would be the son of Sans & an unnamed individual, so his personality would be different.

-His name would be Neuton, & IDK what RPG class he would have yet in the Dark World.

Blank Template

-Now this would be an original AU (unless there’s an AU like this so please tell me if that’s the case).

-Basically everyone would be a blank template of each character:

•Basic Designs with little to no colors (I guess white would be considered a color).

•Bare minimum concept of powers & personality based off the original Undertale characters.

•Little to no facial/emotion expression unless near a large influence of raw emotion.

-This version of Neue would be named “Canvas” (like a blank canvas).

Please comment any suggestions/ideas for these or other AUs that I’m working on.

Swapfell Neue Rough Draft

I’m gonna be doing both Swapfell and Fellswap since I really like both of them.

Swapfell Neue’s name is “Miriam”.

Here is the rough draft:

She is based off a Pygmy Goat, which means she’s really short. She’s actually the shortest of the AU Neues.

*Note: The names might change in the future*

Stanley Design

Sorry that it’s taking me so long this depiction of Mati impersonating other characters. Drawing human proportions are HARD, especially hands!

Anyway, here is my outline design of Stanley Pines:

I’m a bit wishy washy with the body since I wanted his belly to be more prominent, and I was having a hard time drawing his fez. I do have an outline without the fez:

I’m getting ready to do the outline of Mati’s Stanley and the coloring.

Neue & AU Variants: Clothing Rough Draft Pt.5/6

Here are the clothing rough drafts for Quire, Gisha & Styx.

Quire

Gisha

Styx

Sorry it took forever to do these 3, I didn’t have a lot of ideas except for a very basic concept.

Not gonna lie, I can’t draw flowers that well so I just pasted some pics of flowers on Quire to get a basic idea for placement, points for ya’ll if you can guess the flowers and what they symbolize.

I also found out that XTale was technically a Swap AU, which meant I had to make a few changes to Gisha, mainly personality and clothing ideas, I might remove the crown. (I also changed Gisha’s name from Mono, and made them Non-Binary).

I don’t have much to say about Styx, I was debating on drawing birds on his horns; side note: he’s gonna play an interesting role along side Quire and Gisha.

Hetalia Infection AU

I wanted to introduce a possible AU for Hetalia revolving around an outbreak, aka “Zombies”.

I’ve seen a lot of MLP Infection AU on YouTube which sparked this interest, plus I like adding horror to non-horror characters.

I’ll be creating another post going over the virus/parasite/disease like its symptoms & origins, along with the status of the countries during said outbreak.

I’ll do polls on who the main cast should be, along with who are “survivors”, “infected”, and “deceased”.

I’ll try to make this into a little series, and yes, I’m putting my OCs that I made for this fandom into this AU as well.

That’s all for now, I’ll be posting a blog regarding the symptoms once I have them all figured out.
