Just another character sheet… … and I’m still alive~~~ But like a barely charged battery 🪫💀 Life has been bulldozing me hard the last past few weeks - I had to move, a relative I was close to passed away, my commute to work has increased, the house needs repairing and cleaning up… Idk how 2024 is looking like, but so far I’m exhausted and I’m going to take my time to recharge - even if it’s days, weeks, months before I return to post something. Social media can take a backseat, and I’m just going to keep doodling whenever and whatever I’m feeling like doodling - Life’s not meant to wasted on screens. — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #ipadart #originalart #originalcharcter #malecharacter #man #doctor #grimreaper #characterdesign #characterart #charactersheet #clothing #fashion #suit #scrubs #notes #artoninstagram #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk

The Illumination Spell, a formidable enchantment that even seasoned Enchantresses find challenging, poses a significant hurdle for magical practitioners due to its relentless drain on Magical Potential. As a Wicca, a tier considered beneath Enchantresses, Sigrid faced constant scrutiny, compelled to demonstrate her magical prowess to assert her place in the esteemed Enchantress Academy. Despite her status as a Wicca, a lower-ranking Witch, Sigrid inherited her father’s formidable powers and possessed a unique mutation that granted her nearly boundless Magical Potential, requiring the consumption of Activation Potions to unleash it. This exceptional ability allowed Sigrid to surpass her peers and excel in spellcasting classes and performances at Demonstration Debutantes. Almost four decades since her departure from the academy, Sigrid’s unmatched magical proficiency remains unparalleled among Enchantresses and Wiccas alike. - #digitalart #ipadart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #prequel #prequelapp #moldiv #moldivvideolab #faceapp #artoninstagram #photorealism #photorealistic #photomanipulation #ai #aiart #originalcharacter #femalecharacter #girl #woman #wicca #witch #illuminationspell #sparkles #vhsaesthetic #1980saesthetic #1980something #pink

Happy National Drink Beer Day! 🍺 It also corresponds with Oktoberfest, so “Prost!” 🥴 This pic of my OC Johannes was made using Al, but damn it looks like an actual anime screenshot (seriously - Al is getting scary good, but there’s always something special about actual hand drawn pics by humans). #digitalart #animestyle #animeart #aiart #aiartwork #originalcharacter #malecharacter #blond #man #beer #nationaldrinkbeerday #oktoberfest

4/16 OCs in different art styles: Aina Faustus drawn as a POKÉMON character (her real name is Aino Hannien) Aina, Johannes' grandmother and Sigrid's mother, boasts a relatively youthful appearance at around 200 years old, though she currently resembles an elderly woman in her early 80s. Her albinism lends her an ethereal air, accentuated by the presence of ruby-red eyes that sparkle with unflagging vitality. To distance herself from her ex-husband Samuel Jörgensen, Aina underwent a partial name change, reshaping her identity. Managing a flower shop that extends beyond its botanical offerings, Aina curates an array of antiquities, curiosities, and magical potions, catering to both Wicca and Enchantresses who frequent her establishment. Aina is the proud owner and caretaker of a feline companion named Lamarr, a descendant of the lineage stemming from Hedy and Odin. Her role in initially encouraging a romantic connection between Sigrid and Richard is notable, as she eagerly anticipated the blossoming of affection between the two. Yet, Aina's perception shifted upon discovering Richard's true nature as Death, a revelation that came when she observed him extracting Sigrid's soul. This revelation cast a shadow on her sentiment towards him, despite her awareness of his deep love for Sigrid and his pivotal role in the birth of her cherished grandson Johannes.

… and that’s why Tricia hardly has any tutoring sessions over at the Kaspers’ place - they have 2 dogs (Fräulein Flicka and Freud), a cat (Klimt), a Wolpertinger (Fritz), a Hyosube (Junko), and a Sleipnir colt (Søren) [they also have Rose-Marie the Pink Fairy, but she doesn’t have hair or fur like the other creatures]. Tricia’s interactions with creatures are limited by her allergies and lack of affinity for animals. Her biology professor, Vinnie DeValeur, shares a similar irony as an animal-allergic individual owning a snake, tortoise, and tarantula for his students. Birds, however, are an exception, and she tolerates the Chickharney residing in the pine sapling planted by Hr. Dr. Kasper in her uncle Tyrone’s backyard. Tricia and Cedrick have known each other for more than 5 years, but they’re not a couple as many strangers tease they are - their relationship is more like estranged siblings or “a little more than acquaintances but not quite friends yet”. Tricia first met Cedrick when he was 9 years old and unable to speak much English (when the Kaspers first bought their home in Los Angeles for work), so she still sees him as “an annoying spoiled little brat” despite his sudden growth spurt in recent years; Cedrick doesn’t think much of Tricia since she’s over 5 years older and is a relative of a colleague, but he does find her difficult to be around with since she’s known for being stubborn and unwilling to stay focused on anything academic (Tricia got a scholarship to University because she’s a good Volleyball player, but has to maintain her grades - thus why she has tutoring sessions with Cedrick). #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #animestyle #animeaesthetic #prequelapp #prequel #moldiv #moldivvideolab #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #originalart #originalcharacters #malecharacter #femalecharacter #teengirl #teenboy #dog #doberman #dobermann #blackgirl #whiteboy #vhsaesthetic #animated #animation #artoninstagram #artistoninstagram

Freyja enjoys pushing the envelope when it comes to fashion. Her son Cedrick finds it embarrassing, her husband Johannes is often mesmerized, and her father Erik just wants her covered up.

Something from April that wasn’t posted up despite shown as a pair of Insta-Stories (now featured somewhere within the Highlight “Siri’s Diary V3”). I’m quite busy with the latest “6 Fan Arts” prompt, gathering references and sketching things out (basically Brainstorming). - Richard is a bit sensitive about any mention and photos showing him as a “weak little human” (considering the fact he’s the Incarnation of Death Himself and is technically many thousands of years old as a Deity). Sigrid finds it adorable seeing her boyfriend in such a flustered state, and enjoys hearing all the numerous stories and antics from his older brother Heinrich. #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #digitalart #digitaldrawing #originalart #originalcharacter #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #malecharacter #femalecharacter #couple #brothers #boys #man #girl #sketchdump #comic #webcomic #character #characterart #artistoninstagram #artofinstagram #artoninstagram

Father’s Day is just around the corner! 👨‍👦 Here’s Richard with a baby Johannes sometime around the 1980s (perhaps at Tivoli Gardens). 🎡🎠🎟️ (Caption by Chat GPT) In the wake of Sigrid’s passing, Richard poured his love and affection onto their son, cherishing every moment before his mortal form began to falter four years later. While many see Johannes as his father’s reflection, with his platinum blond hair and heterochromia, Richard perceives a profound resemblance to Sigrid. Beyond their shared physical traits, he discerns traces of Sigrid’s snarky personality and innocent expressions, a testament to the enduring presence of his beloved wife. - #digitalart #digitaldrawing #art #ipadart #ipaddrawing #animated #animation #animestyle #animeaesthetic #prequelapp #prequel #moldiv #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #vhsaesthetic #artwork #originalart #artoninstagram #artworkoninstagram #artistatinstagram #artistoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #originalcharacter #characterart #malecharacter #man #father #fatherandson #babyboy #baby

Behind a handsome facade of human flesh lies the enigmatic Deity who ends all forms of life on Earth. 💀 But for this day at the beach, he’s just a bashful guy with his beloved girlfriend. - This version is lighthearted and cute, while the TikTok version is more dark and revealing of Richard’s true identity as Death. - #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipadart #animeart #animeaesthetic #prequelapp #prequel #moldiv #motionleap #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #originalcharacters #femalecharacter #malecharacter #couple #man #girl #death #grimreaper #beach #sea #ocean #clouds #vhsaesthetic #1980saesthetic #artoninstagram #artworkoninstagram #artistoninstagram #artistinstagram

The Brothers Kasper Heinrich and Richard. - The Black Skull’s formal heir, Heinrich, defied tradition by marrying a foreign woman, yet remains the favored older son. With smoke as his cover and Fate as his guide, he reaps souls while concealing his true identity. Heinrich, conservative and formal, dons attire from the 1960s, rarely deviating from suits, khaki pants, and cardigans. Meanwhile, Richard, labeled “Spare” after Heinrich’s departure, currently embodies the family’s occult legacy. Unbeknownst to many, he is the incarnation of Death, known instead as a “Heartbreaker” with the nickname “Playboy Dick”. Usually sporting vibrant, casual attire from the 1970s, Richard’s platinum blond hair falls untamed and feathered. Both brothers possess “Odin’s Eye”, heterochromia with a yellow-glowing green right eye and a piercing blue left eye. - Lately I’ve been posting my stuff on TikTok first, mainly because its interface is more easier to use when making video images (not to mention it’s pretty desolate here in IG). It looks like it’s going to be a more common thing for me to be away from IG for a while and posting more stuff over there if that’s the case… I’m also not in a good headspace still feeling tired and other things (let’s just say morale is low and I’m feeling like I’m a worthless piece of 💩). And not to also mention my apartment ceiling has been damaged due to water leaks from the upstairs unit (an overflowing toilet and AC; it’s been over a month and there’s still a huge hole in the ceiling).😞 - #digitalart #digitaldrawing #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #animestyle #animeaesthetic #prequelapp #prequel #motionleap #moldiv #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #vhsaesthetic #artwork #originalart #artoninstagram #artistoninstagram #artworkoninstagram #originalcharacters #originalcharacter #characterart #malecharacters #malecharacter #man #men #brothers #blond #glasses

Sigrid and the neighbor’s cat Hedy… 🐈‍⬛ - My husband was like “That’s a very 80s dress” when he saw me drawing this. Yes… Yes, it is an 80s dress. 👗 I’ve been taking a bit of time away from drawing and posting because why not - I’m tired and I need a break!😫 Before Social Media was kinda fun sharing and more casual; nowadays it feels like it’s so constant, over-saturated, and exhausting being forced to produce content just to be noticed (not to mention a toxic environment and has lots of WTF unsafe challenges people doing just to get views; people really need to reevaluate themselves and focus on more important things like their mental health and well-being [hence the sarcastic phase “Go touch grass and smell the roses” - seriously, there’s no need to be nasty to each other online and just chillax]). — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #animestyle #animeaesthetic #prequelapp #prequel #moldiv #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #originalcharacter #femalecharacter #girl #woman #flowers #flowerpot #cat #vhsaesthetic #1980saesthetic #artwork #originalart #originalartwork #artoninstagram #artistsoninstagram #artofinstagram #animation

Swipe to the right to see the photorealistic and full body versions of Johannes and IRL clothing items that inspired his outfit. - I had a few people ask me how I made the realistic versions of my OCs; they’re made by “Frankenstein-ing” various photos of faces and clothing via SKETCHBOOK or PHOTOSHOP - then using apps like FACEAPP and PREQUEL to clean things up. So my method isn’t quite 100% using AI - it’s a lot of work by me stitching, painting, and composting the character and then using AI and various apps to enhance and clean up for the final image (in other words, it’s still a lot of work by me the human). - As for this guy, he’s all dressed up for his other day job as a Substitute University Professor. Normally Johannes wears scrubs and crocs or wrinkled collared shirts, khaki pants, and loafers whenever he’s working at the hospital as Surgical Oncologist for simplicity and practicality (he also prefers to wear minimal amount of clothing for comfort); but when he first started teaching, students had called him a “Slob” when he showed up in his usual attire with a white lab coat on top. Johannes takes offense being called a Slob when he’s known for his impeccable attention to detail and clean, efficient methods on the operating table; ever since whenever he’s subbing for his colleague Vinnie, Johannes puts a lot of effort into his outfits. Johannes also isn’t afraid to wear clothing that would be considered feminine - his philosophy regarding clothes is “As long as it looks good, has function, and is comfortable, it doesn’t matter if it’s for a man or woman” (also as a Grim Reaper he often wears attire that plays with gender identity because the concept and role of Death is universal and is gender neutral). - #digitalart #digitaldrawing #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #animestyle #prequelapp #prequel #moldiv #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #originalcharacter #malecharacter #man #artwork #originalart #originalartwork #artoninstagram #artofinstagram #pink #blue #blond #photorealism #photorealistic #fashion #clothes #clothing #floral #stripes

Back to the 1980s with Johannes’ parents Richard (Death) and Sigrid. - Richard was stuck a decade behind in the 1970s for 2 major reasons: he really loved the Disco aesthetic and couldn’t afford to upgrade anything he owned due to financial difficulties (his ex-fiancée Sheila drained all of his accounts dry - leading him to declare bankruptcy, close his private practice, and work odd jobs within the Occult Community to pay off his debts). He’s also frugal guy so he doesn’t like wasting money on new fashion and cars if his current items are still in good condition and can be repaired with little to no cost (he repairs his 1969 VW Beetle himself and buys the latest tech second-hand if possible). Because of his dated appearance, Sigrid would jokingly call him “Old Man” even though he’s “not that old” as a Human (as a Deity he’s over 350,000 years old, but it’s not exactly known how old he was as a Human in the 1980s). Since dating Sigrid, Richard has been slowly starting to get with the times by allowing her make adjustments and alterations to his clothing; he’s even made a few efforts in buying a few new outfits to impress her. But every now and then Richard can’t help relapse to wearing bell-bottoms, wide-collared shirts, plaid suits, and other items from the 1970s since he has nothing else to wear. - #digitalart #digitaldrawing #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #animestyle #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #originalcharacters #femalecharacter #malecharacter #man #girl #woman #couple #flowers #roses #moldiv #prequel #vhsaesthetic #1980s #artistoninstagram #artoninstagram

Sigrid’s Fire 🔥 - Despite having to take Activation Potions, Sigrid can easily cast spells other Witches (particularly Enchantresses) take years to master mainly because of her insane high amount of Magical Potential (MP) and constantly practicing to prove that a mere Wicca is capable. Just by herself Sigrid’s spells can pack a punch and are visibly spectacular, but when she has someone she cares for nearby while casting spells is when her magic shines most - a common sign that a Witch is in love and is willing to do whatever to show her abilities that she’ll protect them. Sigrid’s look is heavily influenced by 1980s (maybe a hint of early 1990s) black Chanel dresses. It’s not often she wears formal clothes (she mostly wears school-related clothing), and she makes her own dresses and gowns for the trimonthly debutantes her academy holds for its students to demonstrate their magical abilities. - #art #drawing #animation #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #originalart #artistsoninstagram #artistoninstagram #artoninstagram #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #motionleap #moldiv #prequel #prequelapp #originalcharacter #femalecharacter #witch #wicca #girl #fashion #1980sfashion #blackdress #hat #firemagic #magic #black #white

Went a little bit crazy drawing clothes on OCs again, this time with all 4 Kasper Grim Reapers together in normal human form. Our main 3 Kaspers (Cedrick, Johannes, & Richard) are what many in the western world traditionally think of Grim Reapers wielding scythes and have skeletal forms (Heinrich was a Grim Reaper before giving up his title and role as heir of the Kasper Family; he briefly reprised his duty as one while raising Johannes when Richard had to return to his true identity as Death indefinitely). Hansel is a special case - normally a Kasper has to have “Odin’s Eye” to become a Reaper (Heterochromia with the ability to see everything living and dead as well as vitals simultaneously), but through his mother’s side Hansel is distantly descended from a line of Jeoseung Saja (Korean Grim Reapers) and deals with souls in a different manner via talismans and chants (Hansel is Japanese/Korean and German/Danish). Richard is drawn much older here (80-85 years old) due to him adjusting his “human age” had he still remained “alive” whenever he’s briefly summoned back to the living world; the youngest age he can return as human is when he “died”, which happens to be about the same as his son Johannes’ current physical age (it’s similar for Sigrid’s soul if transformed into a Genganger - she can only be physically the age when she died). As members of the occult community, the Kaspers can live for centuries using inherited magic. Richard is actually a “Entity” or “Deity” as Death Himself and has been in existence for over 300,000 years; it’s heavily hinted that Johannes and Cedrick are also Entities since they’re directly descended from Death and their physical appearances change whether they take up the task as Grim Reaper, but it’s unknown whether they have to permanently change and give up being human if they’re called to the Underworld. - #art #drawing #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #originalcharacter #originalcharacters #originalart #malecharacter #man #men #boy #people #human #skull #skulls #grimreaper #family #suit #glasses #clothing #fashion #prequel #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #animestyle

Death and cats… (unposted pic from about a month ago) He claims to hate them, especially when they have multiple lives (it’s like the game “Wack-A-Mole” to him) and chase souls as if they’re yarn balls (making his basic task of collecting souls more difficult), but deep down within the dark void of his hollow rib cage Death has a soft spot for them due to their affection towards him and occasional gift of lost souls they managed to catch. Though all cats can see souls, cats with odd-eye also share his ability to simultaneously see both living and death beings (many cultures see Heterochromia as magical, the green/brown eye representing the Earth and life, while the blue represents Heaven and death). - As a human, Death refers to himself in 3rd person and takes on his current incarnation’s name (Richard Kasper) to avoid confusion amongst Grim Reapers and to keep his true identity secret to anyone else aside from family (99% of people who discovered he’s Death die within hours, including ex-lovers and coworkers; his girlfriend Sigrid is an exception because she’s already cursed to have her soul personally collected by Death at a set time). - #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #digitalart #digitaldrawing #originalcharacter #malecharacter #man #cat #cats #souls #death #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #animestyle #comics #comic

Sigrid’s love interests: Sebastian “Batty” Sorensen & Richard “Dickie” Kasper - Batty was a very stoic guy who showed little affection yet all the girls in the neighborhood adored him for his dark hair and striking sapphire-blue eyes. Batty also joined the police academy soon after graduating High School and returned home as a rookie cop, putting an uniform on top of his good looks. Sigrid had been in love with him since they first met as children at his father’s arcade, but Batty rejected her confession in favor for another schoolmate at her academy (as the neighborhood’s beau he thought should date the most beautiful girl around). He also knew of her shortened lifespan due to her father’s curse, adding to his view of Sigrid “as a waste of his time”. After Richard first appeared helping out at Sigrid’s mother’s flower shop, Batty started feeling suspicious and jealous mainly because he was spending a lot of time with Sigrid and taking her attention away (Batty also didn’t like the fact Richard was a foreigner, much older, and comes from an occult family notorious for partaking in history’s unfortunate events). As Sigrid and Richard’s relationship blossomed, Batty’s own romance was quickly crumbling apart - adding to his disgust towards the man he sees as his rival (his engagement was broken, he was expecting twins with his ex-fiancée, and he was being sent to another city’s police department away from his immediate family). It wasn’t until after news of Sigrid’s death he regretted not reciprocating her love and wondered how different his life would’ve been if he had dated and married her instead (it’s why Batty has complicated feelings whenever Johannes visits Copenhagen - he pities him not growing up knowing his mother Sigrid but also detests him since he physically takes after his father Richard). - #art #drawing #digitalart #digtaldrawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #artistsoninstagram #artistoninstagram #artofinstagram #originalcharacters #originalcharacter #malecharacter #man #men #datingsim #clothes #1980s #vhsaesthetic #animestyle #prequel #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk

Death Himself 💀 Artist Notes 🗒️: • Death’s Incarnation’s Full Name: Richard Gottfried Kasper I gave my version of Death the first name “Richard” which means “strong king” or “brave ruler” - referring to his role as the ultimate ruler of all souls when it’s time to collect them. His older brother Heinrich gave him the name Richard when their parents were too upset having a second son and learning he was Death given a chance to be temporarily human (this lead to their mother eloping with an American soldier and having the daughter she desired, and Richard was treated harshly by their father in response - thus making him retaliate by attracting attention being a cruel Grim Reaper and heartbreaking playboy); the two brothers were close despite their opposite personalities and age gap. His middle name is a Germanic version of “Geoffrey” / “Jeffery” meaning “peace of God”, which again points to his role as Death (he prefers people live a full life before putting them to rest but isn’t afraid to snatch up a few extra souls if they’re easy pickings). [and yes… people had pointed out his resemblance to a certain Jeff when he wears glasses… 😑 But his appearance is actually based off of Mr. Death in “The Twilight Zone” episode “Nothing in the Dark” portrayed by Robert Redford] His last name “Kasper” is a Germanic/Scandinavian version of “Jasper” derived from a Hebrew word meaning “treasurer” - also alluding to his family’s role of collecting souls (also it’s a variation of the name “Casper” which most associate with the fictional ghost). The Kasper Family is also based in Kiel which is located on Jutland that has been part of Denmark for many centuries, meaning they’re actually ethnically Danish not German (Jutland is currently split between Denmark & Germany, and their hometown is now part of Germany which is why they’re listed as “German” on their character sheets). #art #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #ipadart #originalart #originalcharacter #malecharacter #artistsoninstagram #artoninstagram #drawing #animestyle #grimreaper #death #man #skull #green #red #blue #black #rgb #vhsaesthetic #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #moldiv #prequel
