I'll update this later but here's some artwork of appearing characters and others from my fanfic, "FIREWEAVER"

Reference sheet (forgot to do the back 😭)

Alternative suit idea. This one looks more sleek so I'm leaning towards it

Bust portrait

Unfinished illustration of Doctor Ophelia (Gunhilda) Octavius. Gotta finish her braids and the tentacles

Bonus; first design from earlier in the year.

Breakdown of Esme's suit and design:

At first I was making a spider sona and after asking several friends what aesthetic fit me most fire was chosen, so I chose orange since it's the opposite of blue, and the most obvious color that comes to mind when you think of fire lol.

The brown was hard. I played around with several other colors like green (opposite of red) and considered it mostly because I wanted to incorporate Esmerelda's eye color since that's her most defining feature. Ended up throwing it out the window because it looked terrible lol.

I even tried to make the suit look like a Brazilian jewel tarantula but threw that also out the window.

I eventually settled on brown because it felt more pleasing to the eyes and I wanted the fire to be the most eye-catching part of the suit, and brown was a neutral color that let orange take the spotlight.

And then Esmerelda ended up becoming an entirely independent character because she turned out looking nothing like me 😂

I'll probably make her civilian sheet after I'm done with this current project with Ophelia. I'm also making a bust for Ophelia, and perhaps once all the former list is done, I'll do some fanart of Miguel. It was super fun doing the spider-verse art style. But also super different 😭

Like seriously, this is how my art usually looks
