🌱 Dragon Slayers: Evolution 🌱

This took a long time, but it was so fun to practice drawing full bodies (and cats 😭) for once! I actually sketched out the concept for these 3 pieces months ago— and recently decided to commit to proper drawings :D

[These pieces were for pure nostalgia, and to revisit media that was part of my artistic journey as a tween! I know the series has major flaws— the treatment of female characters, tasteless fanservice and poor relationship writing, to name a few. I despise these aspects, of course.

I want to make it clear that I drew this art to explore something that shaped my younger self's work. I don't condone Mashima's writing choices, nor did I even keep up with the later arcs of the story and the spin-off(s). Thank you for reading!]

Could we get some Barok and/or Klint?

I'd never sketched Klint properly before! I couldn't get the sash things to work, so I drew them a little less fancy than usual haha

Digital artwork in a cartoonish, cel-shaded style, depicting a small character lineup from the first 'Ace Attorney' game. From left to right: Maya Fey, Phoenix Wright, Miles Edgeworth and Dick Gumshoe. Each character has slightly more exaggerated proportions than canon.

Maya is the shortest and slim, drawn with round shapes. She stands with her feet together, right knee slightly bent and right hand held out beside her, whilst the other rests on her hip. She's smiling open-mouthed, looking playfully to her left.

Wright is taller and lean, using rounded squares. His feet are planted slightly apart, a case file under his right arm. He's pointing up with his left hand, elbow touching his side. He smiles mildly, one brow raised, looking to his left at Edgeworth.

Edgeworth is a little taller than Wright, skinny and using more angular shapes. His legs are locked together, right fist clenched by his side, whilst his left hand crushes a disposable cup of coffee that spills down. He glares at Wright, scowling.

Gumshoe is the tallest by far, thickset and drawn with rounded shapes. His feet are apart; he stands in a pose similar to canon, right hand scratching behind his head and left in his trouser pocket. He grins, open-mouthed and sheepish, eyes squeezed shut.

This time last year I made character art as I watched an AA trilogy playthrough for the first time…so I decided to recreate it for 2023!

my art ace attorney redraw phoenix wright maya fey miles edgeworth dick gumshoe id alt text I'm happy with this newer attempt! I think the characters have more personality (particularly Maya <3) and I spent more time on details like remembering gumshoe's suit jacket under the coat...and adding the ill-fated coffee cup 💀 click here for the old art: aa 2022

Cartoonish digital art, done in greyscale with colour accents. It's one rectangular panel, like a detailed storyboard frame. The art shows characters from the first Ace Attorney game— from left to right is Gumshoe, Larry, Wright, Edgeworth, Maya and Mia. It depicts a group hug, set after Wright's 1-4 victory. They're stood in a line, so each character's equally visible.

The colour accents include Gumshoe's green coat, Larry's orange jacket, Wright's blue and Edgeworth's magenta suit jackets, Maya's purple haori/beads and Mia's yellow scarf.

Gumshoe is grinning, right hand over Larry's shoulder, left wiping away a happy tear. Larry lays his right hand on Wright's back, and the other ruffles Wright's hair. He has a wobbly smile, eyes brimming.

Wright's back is partially turned towards the viewer. He grins radiantly, holding Edgeworth's arms like he's just pulled away from a close hug. He looks back at Larry. Edgeworth has his left hand pressed on the front of Wright's shoulder, the other over Wright's back. He smiles tearfully as he looks to his left.

Maya hangs her left hand on Edgeworth's upper arm, her right cheek squashed against his shoulder. She's smiling, open-mouthed, right eye squeezed shut. Mia's left hand rests over Maya's waist as she hugs her loosely. She smiles serenely. Her eyes and body glow in the purple-blue shade of her Magatama necklace, which gives off abstract swirls with an overlay effect.

One day someone is going to hug you so tight that all of your broken pieces will stick back together.

Found Family Any% Speedrun <3 I can't believe I'm on 2-5 already...I'll be replaying this promptly after finishing I think 😭

[ID: A cartoony screenshot redraw from The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve. Mikotoba, Susato, Iris and Sholmes stand facing the viewer, smiling and cut off around their knees. The shading/lighting is a warm orange, and the background is white with an orange panel behind the characters.

Near the bottom of an alternative version, a quote taken from the game reads, 'Because I was lucky enough to have the most wonderful family in the world standing steadfastly behind me.' /End ID]
