✧ A couple of silly AA drawings ✧
Few days ago I originally do to a page in my sketchbook that was dedicated to going wild with my fluro paints... that didn't happen and instead I decided to draw my personal hc of what Trucy and Apollo look like when they perceive. This hc is inspired by people typing joke references to the perceive ability with the two eye emojis, for example saying something like this "Apollo when he see's the witness lying: 👁️👁️" because the idea of their eyes looking so cartoonishly bit and uncanny is unreasonably funny to me XD.
Than I drew a random Trucy who's wearing a crop top with sunflower on it cuz she do be around a lot of lawyers and the cards coming out of her hat kinda have meanings, the 8 of diamonds have same meaning as they do in this fanart I did, the 7 of hearts is of course a reference to the 7 yr gap which, I see as a bittersweet time for Trucy as I'm sure she felt loved by Phoenix but at the same time, she still lost her bio Dad and didn't grow up in the best circumstances, hence why the card has hearts but is black, than the ace is a lazy reference to case 4-1 :P.
Than after the drawings were done I got out the paints and well, unfortunately the paint and glitter glue around the perceive the page got wet and some of the ink from the last page bleed threw :( than a tissue got on the page and stuck :[ I could've fixed this by painting over these areas again buuuuuut, I didn't feel like it :> and sketchbooks are meant to be messy (right?) so I think it's fine (✿^‿^)
✰ group photo ✰
Few days ago felt like drawing more AA fanart (as per usual these days X3) and suddenly got an idea of drawing Trucy taking a group photo, maybe with family? But than I wanted to add more characters, and more characters and, I still wish I could add more characters! but I didn't have the space for them :-( I'm sure if I pre-planned the composition I could've easily added way more characters but this was an impulse drawing so I didn't :3
Overall though I do really like this drawing, even after making a ton of errors and being reminded of why I prefer to draw pics with a ton of characters digitally (did miss having layers and a eye drops tool a few times, amongst over conveniences) I still think it came out really fun and cute. Though definitely need to draw more Klavier as I don't think I've found him in my art style yet but, I do enjoy the ponytail I gave him and plan on drawing with with many different hairstyles :3
♡Miles in some frilly shirts plus WrightWorth♡
Yesterday I was feeling pretty down so after doing sketch studies and walking I felt the urge to draw Miles Edgeworth in some cute frilly shirts! Do I think he'd wear these in canon? Highly doubt it! But they were still fun to draw and, the full body Miles I think is the best Miles I've drawn yet!
Than I drew some NaruMitsu/WrightWorth because I felt like drawing cozy shipping art and still felt like drawing Miles so NaruMitsu it is! Don't have anything to say about the first image, aside from the fact that I love that in canon Miles has pink PJs! So of course he's wearing them! And for second image I drew Phoenix bitching cuz while they're both (for lack of better word) bitches, I think Phoenix is the only one between the two to openly bitch about someone to close friends and partners, while Miles would just be a condescending jerk to the person annoying him in the moment and leave it at that XD
also I have once again changed up how I draw Phoenix's hair and eyebrows, will I ever have a set way of drawing these? Who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ not I
✭ Athena Cykes ✭
(another sketch and spoilers for case 6-4 below)
Today I felt like drawing Athena because I really like her colour palette and, have grown to enjoy her character more. Plus I have wanted to do a minor re-design of her outfit for a while as there were small things I wanted to change. Main one being her jacket cuz, why tf do we have a gold button on yellow!? Maybe I'm just too obsessed with having contrasting colours in art, but given the jacket already has blue accents, why not add more? Also made her boots taller (not the biggest fan of her boots but I didn't want to change too much cuz they suit her cuz they look like moon boots imo) and gave her black bike shorts instead of the black tights cuz, the black tights just looked weird to me :/ so it was purely a personal preference thing :P
I enjoyed drawing this a lot and kinda want to do more pages like this of AA characters, but no promises! If I do more characters I'll probably start with more Wright anything agency members and branch out from there if I still feel motivated to :3
Yesterday I did the sketch above because I was in the mood to draw comics but, only did this cuz drawing comics traditionally is a lot harder than digitally (and I've yet to get my drawing tablet out of storage) so I did something simple to scratch that itch. It's of course based off that moment in case 6-4 when Simon fucken jump scares the player and shakes Athena!?
Truly iconic moment, than again Simon is so iconic for the whole case, that man is now my favourite co-counsel which I kinda feel bad about cuz all the "weird girls" are super iconic characters and I like their characters overall more than Simon (yes all of them) but, if we're talking just as a co-counsel, he's my favourite. His dialogue alone made 6-4 go from meh to good for me.
✭ Apollo Justice✭
Today I decided that I will do more full page drawings of AA characters. Unfortunately I don't think I drew a very good Apollo, but in my defence AA is the frist franchise I've hyperfixated over were I've not only cared about the more than one or two male characters but also have had a few of my favourite characters be male! So I'm much more comfortable drawing female characters (´-﹏-`;)
Also I didn't change up his design aside from giving him the brown shoes he has in the AJ: trilogy promotional art instead of black shoes he has in older official art because I like it and it's actually my second fave lawyer suit design (favourite is Diego Armando's suit).
Anyways I've also decided I'll share my hc's for these characters for as long as I do this series :D, because I didn't share hc's for Athena on her post I'll share both Apollo and Athena hc's below, spoilers for AA4-6:
Both Apollo and Athena are trans and both socially transitioned as kids and grew up in trans supportive environments cuz in my mind the AA universe is queer friendly to balance out how dystopian their legal system is.
Apollo has no fashion sense aside from having a surprisingly good eye for men's formal/professional wear. So good in fact that Kristoph wouldn't of hired him if his suit looked bad (cuz he's that petty).
Apollo doesn't see Phoenix as a Dad but does simultaneously see him as a role model (though he'd never admit it) and hate him
he does however see Trucy as a little sister, even before learning she is actually his half sister
Apollo is gay and Athena is lesbian cuz one day I thought "hmmm image if the lawyers were trans and MLM and WLW solidarity?" and than it became a hc :P
I ship Apollo with Klavier and I like to think that Phoenix tries to give Apollo dating advice but Apollo ignores him because his advice is terrible! (Not on purpose, Phoenix is just really bad at relationships but it's works out for him cuz his partners are always just as bad, or somehow even worse at relationships than him)
however unlike Apollo I don't ship Athena with anyone, just don't feel like it lol
Athena met Phoenix in Europe at a park one of the many times Miles had him and Trucy come over to visit, by chance Trucy was doing magic tricks for random people in the park and Athena was one of these people. She was reading a book to study for the bar exam so Phoenix immediately talked to her about law after Trucy's trick.
Athena is fully multilingual (knowing most active European languages) and says non-english words by accident most of time (if she does it on purpose it's always to sound cooler in her opinion).
also I hc Athena as Austic cuz I can >:-)
Widget uses a Voicaloid sound bank, personally I like it imagine it's specifically Oliver because that's funny to me.
Widget also uses a custom OS that Aura Blackquill designed specifically for all the tech she built with Athena's mom.
✭ Trucy Wright ✭
Yesterday I drew Trucy and I really like how this picture looks, definitely my favourite out of the 4 AA sketchbook page drawings I did and will be the last one (at least for now, may go and do more in future if I feel like it).
Didn't change a lot lot of her canon outfit aside from making the brooch gold instead of sliver, to match the gold earring, buttons(?) and accents on the cape. And I also changed her boot design as the original boots looked too much like rain boots to me (which works for her child design but, even at 15 rain boots feel too juvenile imo). So after much thought on different boot designs (even considered white Demonia's!) I realised that go-go boots look really similar to rain boots, and decided that they'd actually work for Trucy! Especially since the shape of her dress does kinda remind me of the silhouette of a lot of mid-late 60s dresses and go-go boots (while more associated with the 70s) I'm pretty sure are from late 60s so it works (hopefully!).
Now for some hc's:
Her and pearl are childhood friends
She has a really good vocal range and is pretty decent at doing accents thanks to performing Mr.Hat from a young age, I like to think Mr.Hat has a really deep masculine voice and a fancy British accent
She is bi because the idea of her coming out to Phoenix and him just going "same" is funny to me
Trucy runs social media accounts for Wright anything agency, however most posts on the WAA accounts are re-sharing posts from her Trucy Gramarye social media accounts (she manages 6-8 accounts total across like 5 different sites, how she does it no one knows), which further adds to people not realising most employees at WAA are defense attorneys.
♡ Gyaru drawing♡
a few days ago I felt like drawing something that wasn't fanart in my sketchbook so I ended up doing a simple drawing of a Gyaru, because I think Gyaru look pretty cool, and the style has an interesting subculture and history attached to it.
This wasn't based on any specific sub-genre of Gyaru style btw, just looked at a ton of refs and combined elements I liked. As well as adding some details (e.g. adding heart holes in platforms, heart necklace and heart earrings to create a heart motif XD).
I especially enjoy how the colours look, definitely need to use restricted colour palettes more as keeping the palette small is definitely why the shading is so fun imo.
some pages in my new-ish sketchbook + some cool stickers i put on the back :)
Is it bad that I finished rewatching TFATWS and Loki in 2 days. Anyway, here’s some Bucky and Loki fanart bc favs <3 (I am working on faces I swear)
Back with a funky doodle in time for Christmas!!
