my design for the toys!!!! (+ honorary members) bon, meg, joy, toddy and springtrap (now renamed spring) for my fnafhs take, fhsc! design explanations and dumb mspaint doodles under the cut!
LET'S START WITH BON!!!! THE GAY REP EVERRRR! For my take Bon is short for Bonifacio, a name Bon lowkey HATESSS and is only really called that by his dad
ok so hot take apparently but i like bon's hairstyle in season 1 FAR MOREE than in season 2 and onward
i find the slicked back look much more iconic than a look that is really just white boy hair swag all messy and with the middle part. BESIDES i find it really contrasts with bonnie's bangs pointing down look, it really also makes his silhouette a lot more recognisable!
thats why my bon has it still!! with a little design quirk! i love simple designs so having his hair be just two bumps makes me happy, but it alsoo lowkey mimicks bunny ears, which is a design thingie i try to give all of the characters who's animals they're based on are bunnies!
in this trusty chart you'll see what i mean they all have ears and are cute and i love them
he also has messy crooked teeth! that boy's not seen a dentist in a while <//3 this is because i also like to give em bunny inspired characters cool little teeth quirks
LOOK OUT ANOTHER CHART
NOW, AN IMPORTANT EXPLANATION
THE 'THE TOYS' STRIPED CLOTHES BRAND
sooooo i bet you've noticed that mangle's ICONIC, CLASSIC black and pink striped leggings are not so black and pink anymore
ok lemme explain
so ive always been kind of ticked off by the whole toys striped clothes thing because bon ofc has his right dark blue and white sleeve
mangle has the iconic black and pink leggings
but joy?
joy just has that random ass ALSO black and pink legging but ONLY on her left leg for really not much reason!
it IS iconic at this point but i always found it to mess with the balance of their designs as a band so thats why in my version
i decided for joy to have her striped brand as a sleeve on her left arm, to complete the trifecta. as for the colors, it also ruffled my feathers a bit that bon's sleeve had white instead of black like mangle and joy. i tried black with their distinctive colors as stripes but i found the solid black to be too eyecatching and distract from the design. so instead i decided for their sleeves to be their distinctive color in dark with four light stripes of that same color! i made joy's orange as to not repeat the same pink mangle has, and to have a bit of callback to the orange elements (beak, chicken feet) that the og toy chica the animatronic has.
by the way, my joy is canonically transfem! she/her only plz
she is also this time golden's half-sister! look at this cool chart of their differences
(joy has eyelashes, a nose that points upwards, blue eyes and a more saturated yellow hair color, she is also taller)
(golden has freckles (they're visible in this particular version of his design for the sake of showing their differences, but they're not drawn on the regular) a nose that doesn't point upwards, a lighter yellow hair color and gray eyes)
also fun little thing! joy's little ahoge ass hair strands on the top of her hair are a reference's to toy chica the animatronic's chicken feathers!
MEG TIME
do i have a reason as to why her hair is now like that? no it was just easier for me to draw, and limiting her pink highlights to only the tip of her ponytail-thing makes it far easier to keep track off and keep consistent. i do have a reason for why she's tanner now, her og blinding white skin did NOT look good with her solid white hair :sob:
she's also canonically foxy's sister too, no more dubiously potential incest LMAO
here's her version of her differences chart with foxy!
(foxy is taller, has a thinner nose and doesn't dye his hair, he's a natural redhead)
(meg has big nosed girl swag, has eyelashes and dyed hair)
also fun fact, meg started to dye her hair white because she'd began to get some gray hairs due to stress, joy re-dyes her hair whenever her roots start showing. my heart fears her hair isnt gonna last more than ten years at this point LMAO
TODDY TIME
toddy,, my beloved,, i love you and your awful personality and your underdeveloped or straight up forgotten plots (her beef with chica in the first season never getting mentioned ever again still makes me lose it) i know how to make you complex pls give me a chanceee
sooo her og design
i prefer her season 1 hairstyle over her season 2 one (she never had a fhszero design GOD TODDY YOU DESERVED SO MUCH BETTER) i find her season 2 hair to be a bit too ridiculous with that toupee looking loop of her bangs. but also toddy is perfect and it lowkey serves camp.
the season 1 dark gray lineart that eddo for some reason cursed herself with does SUCH a disservice to her and her darker skin (which i find to look maybe a tad bit too ashy in season 1, i prefer the tone change of season 2 a lot more)
im allergic to designs that i cant draw with simple shapes so i went against a long hairstyle.
now she has her hair parting in the middle to tie two afro balls that are meant to lowkey resemble bear ears :3 and the remaining hair is twisted in two invisible locs that go over each of her ears
because toy freddy is fat toddy is fat too that is my entire reasoning behing this change LMAO (that and to further diversify the cast and make her silhouette more recognisable because if there's anything i love is being able to tell who someone is by their shadowed figure)
i made her shirt's collar, rim and that red thing thats the equivalent of the boy's tie in their school uniform round to give off a stylish, fancy look
i also decided to scrap the rough blush her og design has as a reference to toy freddy's cheeks
because i feel they dont really work that well in her design, they're too big dots that seem to be haphazardly placed on her face, i think the colour clashes too much with her skin and it is a difficult trait to keep track off and mantain consistency between drawings.
however who knowssssss maybe there'll be one design where she does have something like it referencing toy freddy,, if it were to happen i'd simplify it more like this
(mspaint colors are rough man)
god i love herrrrrrr haaaha all the little storylines ive got in my head for not only her but all these characters that im unable to tell you because first spoilers (if i ever get around to making this youtube show a thing LMAO) and second translating it all to a comprehensible text feels IMPOSSIBLE
look at her anyway
SPRING TIME
so ok I LOVE HIM i think he's like the goodest guy in the entire show? like he has not done anything wrong ever, like morally that guy's going straight to DOUBLE heaven
look at him honestly 10/10 design i love his colors that jacket/hoodie thing is iconic, his dirty blond is MWAH and he's too good for his own good (that grandma that didnt pay him needs to DIE)
soooo why is my version black
not much reason honestly it really is just pure convenience. honestly all the white boy designs i sketched weren't convincing me LOL
this is the first one i did last summer
its got nice ideas, doesnt change much from the og one (mostly just making him bulkier) but i quickly realised that drawing the hoodie that way, so stylised, would be a bit tough for an angle that wasn't facing straight-forward or 3/4 jsjsjs, besides i also wasnt a fan of the hair covering one eye because that's a mangle thing it is the same eye and it just doesnt make much sense
also the way the hair's drawn with all those strands going in different precise directions made it tooooooo hard to replicate them each and every time i drew him again. over all it's got ideas but it also really is stuck to a time when i was developing this artstyle thats more cartoony and stylised.
all the other design tests for the messy blonde hair that doesnt cover any of his facial features weren't going tooooo well so i experimented with different hair textures.. here is the mspaint doodle page of spring's conception!
i got the idea for him pretty quickly and it just came to me naturally. hes my best version im sure.
i find the brown of his skin to nicely match the greens of his clothes. his shoes being that shade of reddish magentaish whateverish are a little bit of a callback to springtrap the animatronic's fleshy bits. and the tore bit on the pants! i found it funny to make the tore fabric look a bit like teeth (as well as the rim of the white shirt spring wears under his hoodie that shows below it) to give it a bit of that body """"""""""""""horror"""""""""""""""" bit, or at least callbacks to it, that springtrap the animatronic has
also the hoodie strings i made to look a bit like wires just like springtrap(TM) :3
so when he has his hoodie up only two of his hair pieces pop out (ooooo rabbit motif ooooo) which admittedly makes him look a little bald but idc its funny so it STAYS
but when he takes it off he has a glorious head full of hair i love him god i love being cringe because i am free
look at him
also sorry but he's the token straight guy :sob: (although that doesnt mean he doesnt kiss boys,, you know, for the fun of it)
also fun fact!
spring and meg's headshapes are the same one, just inverted!
also that fucking dog that i hate still exists yeah bestia but he is NOT SAFE i WILL (maybe, who knows, i dont care enough about him to bother perhaps) hit him with the redesignation beam
who knows maybe i could base him after plushtrap
RRAHHHHHDOODLE TIME
whoops apparently tumblr has a 30 image per post limit LMAO i didnt know that and i hit it just now JSJSJJS
guess i'll post the doodle tirade seperately maybe if i remember
ohhh my god ive had this post in the works for more than TWO WEEKS because i started it right as the semester was nearing its end and ive been CHOKING IN EXAMS AND ASSIGNMENTS AND STRESS but all is well all turned out fine and i am now able to draw my favs from some spanishspeaking youtube webseries that has the premise of what if the fnaf animatronics were white teenagers in high school
hope you guys liked the toys!
also, i just wanna say i appreciate each and every reblog that my latest fhsc post about eak, trap and cami got. i genuinely cherish them with all my heart, makes me feel so good about my own enthusiasm and excitement over this silly little thing, and i regularly reread them whenever i feel down. to all the people that liked it, reblogged it and/or left a little message, you are awesome.
welp, here ends my rant about my thought behind these designs for my own fnafhs take, akire out!
my design of towntrap (now changed to tomtrap), eak and cami for my fnafhs take! fhsc (five nights at freddy's high school channel! veeeeryyyy shortened)
design explanation and silly doodles under the cut!
the little motifs that links them together are, for all three of them, their eye make up! i noticed in the show both towntrap and eak have got a big eye make up thing going on; towntrap has that eyeshadow on the outer sides and eak has the ICONIC little dots in each corner but in the few times we see cami's eyes she just has the usual eyelashes all girl characters have. maybe the second bump renders her eye style more original but i decided to make it furtherly distinctive
my version has instead these lines that lowkey look like a clown's or jester's, that resemblance doesnt have any intention behind i just think it looks cool on her
secondly the motif that links only eak and cami together, which in my version were the first to know each other, is their school uniform ties
in these designs they dont wear their ties around their neck, just like how in the original neither eak nor towntrap wear them at all (towntrap does in the first season though, it's in the second one and onward where it dissappears). i decided to apply that little trait to cami as well, to make her feel just as connected to these two and to really make it clear they're a package deal. most importantly, they traded each other ties, so eak wears cami's around his wrist and cami wears eak's as a ponytail before the show's events (when she's more lively and less timid and less going through the horrors, as seen with the eyemake up doodle) and around her waist as a sort of belt afterwards.
of course towntrap doesnt have a tie in the show either, so tomtrap doesnt either. the character reason is because he likes to look more informal. him having his jacket tied around his waist was because 1. drawing jackets is hard and i think having it this way makes both drawing him and his silhouette more easy and redable. the lore reason though is that he got told my a teacher that he looked too much like another teacher wearing it (this is because towntrap's first appearences on the show had people thinking he was a teacher and like, who can blame them its true LMAO).
HOWEVER i couldn't get the red tie motif on his design, the color just didn't suit him. momentarily i tried having his sporty headband be red and be eak's tie (that way the tie rotation would be: cami has tom's, eak has cami's and tom has eak's) but i decided against it. instead it served to make eak and cami's seperate friendship become more accentuated, but i still wanted eak to have a motif with his best friends so realised something. his headband and the jacket he wears around his waist are green and gray, which are the colors of eak and cami's hair! of course not the same shade but thats unimportant. so that way he keeps his besties in his design :3
also i just wanted to mention eak's boots
in the og show his taste in footwear is absolutely terrible im sorry but like look at this man
absolutely disgusting
ok but now fr what are those shoes,, theyre too.. eyecatching
honestly i get it eddo like who cares about a character's shoes we barely even see the character fullbody anyway this is like the only scene where he's like that and we get to see that crime against humanity
i opted for some mexican style-ish boots with a simplified pattern that i think looks pleasant to the eyes with those two brown tones. used the darker one to color his belt too, so i can reuse colors and give the design an unified look. lowkey based on these bad boys
silly doodle stuff! mspaint is awesome the masses were right its so easy to just doodle your woes away
i may have a bit of favoritism my way,, this is tom, nicknamed tomtrap, if you call him tomás he gets so scared he starts writing his will
yeahh,, not inmune to the gayness... theyre kind of oblivious to it in the show as in we're just very good friends that are very comfortable in our masculinity and i've just never felt the need to question my sexuality so why start now
cami facepalms internally
twitter ship dynamic!
i'll never forget eak's skill with a rope in the camp arc LMAO
as i said
character trivia time!
i think tomtrap has a very serious resting face
he's having an awesome time i promise this is just how he looks when he's not reacting to anything or he's just deep in thought
however it unsettles others a bit and he feels so bad about it and tries to always be smiley but it's a big effort and makes him unable to concentrate much
(also yeah that's bonbon/usagi! she shouldn't be in tom's class LMAO but i wanted to practice her design. im a spaniard so sadly the only education system i know well enough to trust myself putting in a story is spain's (although with a few artistic liberties for plot's sake) :pensive: eak, cami and tom are both bachilleres in their second year (so they're 17 years old, although tom was born earlier, he's 18 when the show happens) and bonbon and most of the rest of the cast is on the fourth grade of ESO, which would be the last year of highschool, bachillerato is like highschool 2, so they're around the 15-17 age range)
eak and cami have known him for so long they know that its just how he looks when relaxed. they reassure him about it, how it's everyone else's problem not his. they appreciate whenever they see tom like that, since it means he's comfortable
ak out!
