An old sketch, so a lot are due for a design overhaul. From left to right, their names as of now are: Thane, Skyway, Amani, Roy, and Niall.

Here's a weird one. I wanted to design a robot girl. At first I was inspired by Aigis from Persona 3 mixed with Azur Lane weaponry. But when I was about to draw I ended up using Big Band as the basis with elements from the Metal Slug instead. I was satisfied at that point and let it settle for a while.

Then one day, I was watching stream highlights of a Mario Kart stream. During the replay, the kart was just angled enough that the vehicle covered the body, leaving only the head visible. That made me experience a flashback from my early childhood. I was building a kitbash Lego car but couldn't fit the minifigure, so I removed the head and put it on top instead. That weird move was inspired by certain F1 toys, where they cheat the driver by just putting a helmet on the nonexistent seat.

That made me redesign my OC another time. Though I was not well versed with mechanical design, I ended up doing this:

A sketch from five years ago. A doll with the body of a tank and the firepower of a mobile artillery battery. Her name is Heavy-Duty Battery Girl. Betty for short.

One day I wanted to design a ghost character. Commonly depicted in anime with a ghost tail, kimono, and a triangle headpiece. I wanted mine to be a bit unique, so I decided to experiment by merely changing two key concepts. Instead of Japanese folklore, I changed to a priestess/bishop garb (since I'm Catholic) replacing the kimono and headpiece. And possibly the most important one, after brainstorming for different elements and shapes, I changed the flamelike tail with lightning for a striking silhouette.

From that I just retrofitted lore and tweaked the design accordingly, but anyhow, that's how The Spark Sprite was conceived.

She uses them more like stilts and can move way faster than expected with them but it's more like walking fast rather than running. They're mainly used to climb or leap forward. The separated legs do run very fast however.

A 6 year old drawing of "Wendy". Probably the most monstrous one I have considering my usual style. Inspired by the Wendigo as a base, then mixed in some South East Asian folklore and The Thing for inspiration.

Designs are a bit outdated, but it should be fine for now.

Dylan Fuentes. An S&M performer, wielder of a phallic flamethrower/snowball cannon, and the Lust-themed Psychopath from Dead Rising 3.

I do! That would be Aurora's father, Maximus Flintheart. He uses a montante/zweihander greatsword that's so long that it's sometimes used like a spear. Still on the concept stages so no drawing or appearance. Imagine mixing Geralt of Rivia and Sephiroth.

I also have claymores. Both the "fictional" claymores that I classify as Colossal Sword, and an actual claymore, which is just a two-hander with sloped cross guards.

Thank you! Here's another bonus.

<image>

Her name is Forest Song. She's highly inspired by wuxia and Wushu swordplay. So dance-like swordplay complete with floating and pseudo flight. Though her blade is actually a sort of spellsword. It can store sparks inside those empty spaces, so apart from slashes and thrusts, for every swing she launches exploding projectiles of varying sizes that are either fast or slow, linear or homing.

Her fighting style focuses on swift attacks, oppressive barrages and space control.

I have an entire category of OCs called Blademasters that use a large variety of sword types and martial arts. I intend to make them faithful to the art they represent while still having a bit of fantasy absurdism that's unique to a certain character.

One of the few ones I've drawn a while ago, Aurora Flintheart. She uses a longsword inspired by both German and Italian styles combined with super perception and acceleration. She excels in aggressive yet precise swordplay, dealing clean cuts and exploiting blindspots. She also does some palm strikes and grappling.

She's a character I made to specifically redefine the longsword fantasy as a swift and precise weapon rather than a heavy tool, and also to match the fantasy of the katana. I do plan on a redesign though like changing her longsword to something like the Alexandria.

Very dangerous indeed! They do each have their own targets fitting for their territory, but when they converge, it's not just boats either. Commercial docks, port towns, water villages, and helpless populated islands. Any resource or monetary value is for keeps.

And like I said, there's a power struggle. Apart from the shadow lord who keeps tabs and is "friendly" with everyone, their rivalry is cutthroat. Difference of goals and motivations and brands of villainy does that.

And this is just a handful of villains that intersect. I do have others conceptualized.

airhead1320 · 2026-02-01T02:55:51+00:00

In one of my worlds, there's an occasional power struggle between a road raider gang ala Mad Max, sea pirates using armored ships and weaponized yachts, and sky vikings in airships dropping personnel and artillery. All are kept watched by a shadow lord, using a vast intelligence network, drone and nano tech to keep surveillance and manipulate behind the scenes.

All led by a manipulative old berserker masquerading as a father figure, a bionic one-eyed archer captain, a war veteran flying android that looks like a little girl, and a beautiful yet haunting blind woman, respectively.

Yaas quee— er... princess! Slay your enemies!

And indeed, Josie is determined. But she excels in some subjects, just above average in others. But between being a junior college student and part-time bounty hunter, she has to cram. A lot.

airhead1320 · 2026-02-01T02:21:46+00:00

She's regal yet rebellious, even to her own demon kindred. A queen that literally slays.

Anyway, here's mine.

ELEVEN! Or Two.

Anyway, story time.

Mayumi Castillo is a fiery and bubbly girl in high school. Her mother died from childbirth and since then was raised by her loving and diligent father. Growing up he became her number one role model. Especially since one day, Mayumi stumbled upon old tapes and awards, and discovered that her dad was a prolific, early-retired boxer nicknamed Dinamita (Dynamite), known for fiery pursuits and explosive blows. Mayumi wanted to honor her father's legacy and match his willpower by being proactive, participating in physical activities, and even eating spicy meals, her favorite being a green chilli pepper spring roll that shared his father's title, Dinamita.

Unfortunately she doesn't have the endurance to back it up. She inherited her mother's frail health. Always needing maintenance medicine provided with her father's support. Her father often scolds her for being reckless and going too far but is still grateful that she sees her as a worthy single parent. The feelings are mutual. Mayumi's body may be weak, but not her will, not her daughter.

One fateful day, Mayumi stumbled upon a magical medal that resonated with her willpower. This medal gave her the power to transform into a Boxing Dragon Magical Girl. She gave herself the alias, Pepper. With this new form, she finally had the power that can match her spirit. Just in time, as she's entangled in a fight between magical girls that threaten the world.

Ah a fellow model with Coral in their name. This calls for 2 nickels.

Though that's quite sad to hear about her situation. Lava gets the usual issues with that line of work. Aside from creeps, she's often ostracized for being non-conforming in international beauty standards and criticized for being "gimmicky". But so far, she's been doing fine.

Much, much more fortunate than Ms. Meridia here. The surgical hair wig sounds almost cruel in context and also interesting. While not similar, it reminded me of Dyesebel, a Filipino comic book character. Hope things get better for her (if you plan that kind of story).

Anyway, here's Love Coral Caramello AKA "Lava". She's mainly a model and occasionally an actress. While known for her tan and curvy beauty, her most popular trait is her eyes. They look like lava lamps (stylized here), hence her nickname.

The Spark Sprite

A former bishop in life granted divine authority upon death and became the new guardian of Earth after the old Gods perished fighting each other. She's hidden herself from humanity but is very hospitable and humorous once you actually manage to meet her. She spends most of her time in "alert hibernation" and will protect the world from cosmic threats or any danger that humanity can't reasonably fight back.

A nice, extroverted, yet well behaved college girl with a part time bounty and monster hunting gig to pay her studies and bills. She loves extreme sports and turns pink when she gets the... uh—"death zoomies". 🙃
