Another #sketchdump with more OC Notes… Still feeling tired, had family visiting over, and my Drawing ✍🏻 still hurts, so not sure if and when I’ll post anything new for a while… Short Comics, Sketch Dumps, and OC Notes are easier to make than full-out Pics and Reels, but everywhere is becoming so demanding and competitive for content that it’s literally burning me out mentally, physically, and emotionally (seriously - people can’t believe how much I’ve made since 2016 and barely have Likes, lol). I’ll try to make some kind of a Poll on my InstaStory to find out which OCs my IG Followers want to have more Notes on. #art #drawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #digitalart #digitaldrawing #originalart #originalcharacter #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #malecharacter #femalecharacter #couple #character #characterart #death #grimreaper #witch #wicca #notes #artistoninstagram #artofinstagram #artoninstagram

Oh Cedrick… You’re in so much trouble…😅 (it’s actually posted on @wunderkindck) Tricia, on the other hand, is enjoying how embarrassed her substitute professor is from Cedrick’s IG post. But she’s also curious about the past century’s tech, music, and fashion so she often asks about stuff he, her uncle Tyrone, and aunt Asia used back then. - Being a Millennial born sometime in the 1980s, Hr. Dr. Kasper’s been really hit hard with the latest retro (especially Y2K) trends going on - he was his son Cedrick’s age around at that time (14 - 16 years old). And he’s a bit sensitive showing off his past self, but apparently Cedrick thinks it’s funny and cool at the same time that he wore all that stuff (many Millennials like myself aren’t enthusiastic about the Y2K fashion - I grew up with it and not entirely liking it entirely at the time because I got dress-coded so much at school wearing cropped tops and low-rise jeans are actually awful to wear - they really hurt your hips!). #comics #comic #art #drawing #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #originalart #originalcharacters #originalcharacter #malecharacter #femalecharacter #y2k #jncojeans #jnco

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

“Grim Reaper’s Tools” 🧰 Some notes regarding a Grim Reaper’s basic arsenal. - #notes #drawing #ipaddrawing #digitaldrawing #tool #tools #weapons #weapon #scythe #broom #rake #sickle #dagger #grimreaper #artistsoninstagram #artofinstagram #artoninstagram #artistofinstagram

#sketchdump featuring Sigrid’s younger half-brother Torben & their father Samuel. Torben physically takes after his mother (blond hair & brown eyes), but has a similar sweet demeanor like his older sibling. He’s extremely attached to Sigrid, making him protective towards his classmates at the boys academy (many of them have crushes on her). He personally didn’t like Sigrid’s childhood crush Batty due to his overall cold behavior - especially towards Sigrid and children in general. On the other hand, Torben was more than happy meeting Richard seeing how well he treats Sigrid and would return lost balls & toys back to the neighborhood kids; he also thinks Grim Reapers are more interesting than Warlocks because they not only can use teleportation spells but also weapons to fight monsters & collect lost souls. Samuel is Denmark’s strongest Warlock; he appears to be a man in his 50s, but is over 200 years old & extends his lifespan through life curses, placing him under Death’s watchlist. Being a proud man, he cursed Sigrid mainly because she wasn’t born a son or even an Enchantress, but also because his daughter was born with a mutation that gave her so much more “Magical Potential” than any European Warlock on record. Because he cursed their daughter, Aina changed her name and left with Sigrid to set up her flower & oddities shop. Samuel soon remarried to the Enchantress headmistress Sarah, having Torben a few years later; because Sarah still wanted a daughter, he tolerated her request to allow Sigrid to attend her academy until the life curse takes effect. Samuel is suspicious of Richard not collecting Sigrid’s soul as her assigned Grim Reaper, but also because he’s the talk of Europe since becoming the new heir of the Kasper bloodline and is Europe’s most powerful man in the occult community; he hopes that there’s no romance between Richard & Sigrid in fear that any child born would replace him (it’s the reason why Sigrid’s death was set before her 20th birthday - making her so young to have a relationship). #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #comic #originalcharacters #originalcharacter #drawing #drawings #frauv8_ocs #artistsoninstagram #characterart

Another page from Sigrid’s diary: Richard’s first debutante at the academy. - Sigrid was still bitter about being rejected by Batty on Valentine’s Day 2 months prior; she’s also slowly getting more used to Richard’s presence as her assigned Reaper observing the status of her soul (as well being occasional Handyman and Tatzelwurm exterminator at her mother’s flower shop). She was aware her mother wanted her to pair up with Richard, and knows he really liked her but kept his emotions to a minimum by giving her glances, compliments, and surprise gifts (only after spending the night together when he was lovesick they started becoming more affectionate with each other). Sigrid admits she finds Richard attractive and that he looks like a popular actor at the time, but didn’t like the fact that he’s a descendant of a family known for killing Witches in the distant past (as well as other historical atrocities such as bodysnatching and experimentation on humans), has a “Bad Boy” reputation as a Playboy, is so much older that he could pass by as a distant cousin or her guardian, and wears clothes from the past decade (he does slowly upgrade his wardrobe when they start dating). Over the months leading up to the official start of their romance, Sigrid grew to love his “goofy smile and feathered hair”, his terrible Danish with a German accent (he also speak perfect English with an American accent, another turn on for Sigrid), his scent (combination of sweat, formaldehyde, and CK Obsession cologne), and how his odd-colored eyes would gently blink as he placed his coat over her shoulders for warmth. She was also surprised how much he enjoys playing arcade games, watches American movies and TV, listens to (and sings) popular songs, and is really good with computers and other new tech in the 1980s - proving that he’s been a good match for her all along. — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #ipadart #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #originalcharacter #originalcharacterart #malecharacter #frauv8_ocs #femalecharacter #couple #animestyle #comic #black #pink #purple #white #blue #yellow #brown #grey #gray #suit #tuxedo #gown #notes #1980s

Richard & Sigrid’s son Johannes (Hr. Dr. Kasper) - Biology Professor Mode. [Reel Version] Normally his day job is a Surgical Oncologist, but whenever his colleague Prof. Vincent-Claude “Vinnie” DeValeur needs a substitute, he’ll step in as a Biology Professor.

PART 1 - Sigrid and Richard are out for a walk with the neighborhood tomcat they named Odin (he has odd-eyes just like Richard). 1.5 hours condensed into 42 seconds, not including the rough sketching which took about the same amount of time (so a little over 3 hours total).

Wunderkind’s Notes: Pesta 💀 Freyja technically is a Pesta, but because of cultural changes and her preference to working with her father, she rarely picks up a Rake unless her husband and son really need extra help; she also can’t see souls - only spirits and creatures. [Grim Reapers in Europe are mostly male now, and as heiress of STRÖM CORPORATIONS & INDUSTRIES, Freyja enjoys being the first female Occult Weapons Dealer in history] - Freyja’s mother Sonja was one of the last Pesta of Norway, and worked as a rare female Grim Reaper until she accidentally was cursed by a Troll with a petrification spell - leading to her slow death turning into a statue (so many Wicca in Europe were killed in the Middle Ages to the point they were almost extinct; very few Wicca are alive, but Enchantresses had thrived because they could hide their magical abilities and not rely on potions as much). Sonja was also betrothed to marry Heinrich Kasper since she was a powerful Witch, but due to many circumstances, she ended up marrying Erik Ström (this is partly why Erik doesn’t like Johannes - his uncle broke Sonja’s heart; the other is that his father Richard didn’t cure her of petrification, only slowed it [Erik doesn’t know Richard is Death though, so…]). — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #ipadart #sketchbookautodesk #autodesksketchbook #originalcharacter #originalcharacterart #characterdesign #charactersheet #femalecharacter #woman #witch #pesta #frauv8_ocs #blackdress #rake #black #white

“Am I really that bad?” 💀 Based off a quote from Mr. Death in the “TWILIGHT ZONE”, the version Richard gets his inspiration from. (“NOTHING IN THE DARK”) - To someone not of the occult community, Richard looks like a typical guy during the 1970s-1980s; however he’s “Death Incarnate”, Death Himself in the flesh living as the youngest son of “The Black Skull of Kiel” and recent heir of the Kasper bloodline. Since he’s the actual deity, Richard can’t live a full lifespan of a normal human being; he can transform between forms if needed but at the cost of his health in the long term (mainly temporarily having symptoms similar to tuberculosis due to internal bleeding and tissue damage after changing back to human). Richard was at his peak and nearing the end of his given lifespan when he met Sigrid, whom Fate assigned to him due to her life curse. He claimed her soul after her lifespan ran out, two days after she gave birth to their son Johannes; four years later, Richard couldn’t maintain his human body much longer, returning to his true form as Death and leaving Johannes to the care of extended family (he still holds a grudge against his father for not explaining why he was left behind and was told by Onkel Heinrich that Richard had died in South Africa from a respiratory infection). — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #ipadart #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #prequel #originalcharacter #malecharacter #frauv8_ocs #grimreaper #death #skeleton #skull #bones #black #white #green #yellow #red

LADY IN RED "I’ll never forget… The way you look tonight." (Post Version) HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! ❤️ The art style is inspired by René Gruau fashion pics I stumbled across via Pinterest. It’s another 1980s OC pic with Richard/Death and Sigrid at another debutante ball with onlooking schoolmates. And what other classic song from the 1980s could be better than “The Lady in Red” for Valentine’s Day? - Valentine’s Day was the first day Sigrid met Richard at her mother’s flower shop, soon after her heart was shattered by her childhood crush Batty when he turned down her confession and started dating an older girl close to graduating from her academy. Initially they had a rough start - Sigrid took out her frustrations on Richard and wasn’t enamored about his reputation (he’s a member of Europe’s most notorious occult family known for their association with dark moments of history, he has a past as a heartbreaking playboy, and was more than twice her age); Richard was smitten at first glance, but kept his true feelings to a minimum to avoid trouble with Batty (who’s a rookie cop) and the academy (students are prohibited from dating until they graduate at age 21; Sigrid was only in her 2nd year at 15-16 years old, and her life curse won’t allow her to live to adulthood). It was finally after about a year of observation when Richard suffered Lovesickness and Sigrid realized her true feelings for him, leading to an unexpected night together and making their relationship official. Another year will pass before their romance is discovered, forcing Sigrid to drop out of school and a hasty engagement/wedding to avoid further scandal. - #moldiv #prequel #motionleap #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #ipaddrawing #ipadart #digitalart #digitaldrawing #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #frauv8_ocs #animestyle #animestyleart #malecharacter #man #femalecharacter #couple #1980s #ladyinred #red #yellow #black

A day trip to the beach away from Copenhagen… (Original Version) - On weekends Richard and Sigrid would often go out to the beach during the day and Tivoli Gardens or the movie theater very late at night to avoid being caught dating (the biggest reason being that Sigrid’s academy prohibits dating before graduation, the other reason is Richard’s age and not so favorable reputation within the occult community as a member of the Kasper Family). They do eventually get caught kissing at the arcade by Sigrid’s classmates after almost a year dating, leading to Sigrid’s expulsion, quick engagement to Richard, and moving away to Kiel to avoid further harassment. Even in present times the occult community in Copenhagen still whisper about their taboo relationship and Sigrid’s sudden expulsion from the academy despite being its most powerful Witch - which is the biggest source of their son Johannes’ discomfort whenever he visits his grandmother’s flower shop (he doesn’t like the fact his father was so much older than his mother and was ultimately the cause of her downfall, but he’s grateful that Richard really loved Sigrid and as Death still holds her soul close by in the Underworld). — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipaddrawing #ipadart #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk #motionleap #originalcharacter #originalcharacters #originalcharacterart #malecharacter #femalecharacter #couple #man #girl #beach #1980sstyle #frauv8_ocs #animestyle

2.5 hours spent on this pic (not including the primary sketches, which took at least 1 hour to make). I also used different brushes to color Richard, giving him a paint marker look - basically some coloring practice. — I had made an Insta-Story earlier briefly mentioning about how Richard was developed, but I’ll elaborate here: Originally Freyja’s father Erik was planned to be Death with a design based of Death in the 1957 Swedish film “The Seventh Seal”, but a scrawny pale man in a black cloak didn’t match up with Erik’s boisterous and proud personality - he’s Viking royalty and making him a weapons maker was the better choice (not to mention he hates Johannes, which wouldn’t work well if he was Death since he’d call Johannes a worthless Grim Reaper for the family business - totally not what Johannes is). - Richard was already written out as an “Angel of Death” - a Viking prince who converted to Christianity, became a cardinal only to be killed by another out of jealousy, and was given immortality by evil spirits to take revenge on the descendants of the man who murdered him; therefore making him Death and having his son working for him made perfect sense. Richard was also described as handsome and cunning, so it also didn’t make sense to make him look like Death from “The Seventh Seal” (and Richard isn’t Swedish); instead he gets based off of Death in one of my favorite “Twilight Zone” episodes titled “Nothing in the Dark” - Death is a handsome man who finally got an old lady to let him in her home so he could take her soul away to eternity (familiar vibes to how Richard is sent to collect Sigrid’s cursed soul). The actor who played Death was also a popular heartthrob of the 1970s, making it perfect inspiration - Richard’s fashion sense is stuck in the 1970s, he’s known to be a heartbreaking playboy, and he loves Disco during the 1980s when it was declared dead (adds to the insult of “Old Man” he got from Sigrid when they first met). — #digitalart #digitaldrawing #ipadart #ipaddrawing #originalart #originalcharacterart #originalcharacter #malecharacter #man #grimreaper #death #scythe #souls #animestyle #autodesksketchbook #sketchbookautodesk
