Grid Gala - Blog Posts
2/? I guess i’m just going at my own pace with these 😅 (this has been a real rough few weeks for me my dudes, debilitating health anxiety sucks!)
N e ways, here’s Aisha! She was always my fav as a kid (My first introduction to MMPR was through my older sister who grew up with it and showed me the 95 movie on vhs- i watched it religiously and as such Aisha, Rocky, and Adam were THE yellow, red, and black rangers to me).
As per the “Heavenly Bodies” theme, Aisha’s look is inspired by the Ursa Major constellation. While she did initially pilot the Griffin Thunderzord, I will never not associate her with the Ninja Bear Zord cuz of the movie. Her hair is done up to have the two little buns on top look like bear ears, and also kinda looks like a big teddy gram on the back of her head lol. I feel like a big part of Aisha’s character is how compassionate and caring she is, so I gave her a heart neckline, and the frills and pattern on the dress are kinda just meant to look fancy and regal. The big see through parts are supposed to look like big honey bubbles/globules bc bears- the crescent moon earrings are also meant to evoke bears. I always associate moons with bears but that might just be because of Ursaring from Pokemon. And finally the necklace is based off of the silver muzzle thing the Ninja Bear Zord has in it’s mouth all the time- with the colors representing the Stone Canyon Trio 🖤💛❤️
Big shoutout to all the other Aisha Campbell stans out there I can’t be the only one.

1/? For my Grid Gala 2025 ✨
I was gonna finish Aisha’s first but her dress ended up being very detail heavy and my brain hurts so I decided to finish up Zhane first because drawing tig ol’ bitties is my happy place and my anxiety has been wrecking me as of late. The whole idea with the “Heavenly Bodies” theme I had was constellations, so all of the fits are inspired by constellations. Zhane’s is Polaris/The North Star, which made me think almost snowy vibes and I for some reason specifically came to an Emma Frost inspired design- at least in spirit. The silvery bits are meant to evoke swirling galaxies/star systems like you always see in those nasa photos- overall a kind of regal, starry, snowy, icy vibe. And all of the colors bar the ice is just the colors from Zhane’s ranger suit. I didn’t fully realize until recently that the squares on the silver ranger suit were like, green and not just the normal colors on the other suits.
Also meant to post this earlier in the day but I got completely sidetracked binging Abbott Elementary ☠️
Tbh I don’t think I did too good of a job at getting Zhane’s likeness but oh well, guess that just means I need to draw him (and his boobs) more teehee 🙈
