He's going through it, guys
I love putting beloved characters through the wringer
So, here's another one from December! I was looking at it and wanted to add some pizzazz... so I went crazy with my photoshopping skills
And I discovered this new technique for scanned pencil art- if you add a new layer, paint it black, then set the blend mode to "overlay", it will increase contrast without losing fidelity or making the entire picture too bright/too dark. Play around with this yourself!
Without the filters and overlays:
It makes a mega difference!
I also scanned it before deciding I wanted to put more detail onto it, so here's a bonus pic:

Oml, I LOVE how this turned out!! This has got to be my favorite Vindicated AU/Tazzy Martin art I've made so far.
It also looked cool with only the shadows :0

CPS concept I came up with last month! Hyenas are one of my favorite animals and I wanted to make one for my Vindicated AU story for more suit variety.
Designing this was a lot of fun, I wanna do more CPS concepts in the future :D
Please don't repost this! However, you're more than welcome to make art of this design as long as I am credited 😄 feel free to tag me as well, I'd love to see it!
Suit Lore- ;)
In this suit, you CAN stand on only two legs, but the suit is really meant to be stood on with all fours, as the back legs were not made with the muscular structure of supporting all the body's weight in mind. (Notice how in humans, since we evolved to carry our body weight with only the back legs, the muscles such as in the thighs are much denser compared to the arms.)
As seen in the drawing, the front arms are thicker than the back legs, to support the torso weight and dense muscles surrounding the scapula (shoulder blade), which greatly aids in grip strength when catching and holding onto prey (much like with big cats). [The suit was built this way for a reason ;).]
Also, the wearer's ears are hidden inside of the mechanical ears, for protection against loud noises.
Justice served on a silver platter... oh how I long for you.

I've finally decided on a name for my Wild Kratts AU- "Vindicated".
Inspired by the amazing Reprogrammed AU, but with my own additions and spin on it. And a key difference-- what if Martin was captured instead?
Feel free to send me asks about it, and I'll share what I can :D (still developing the plot so I don't wanna spoil too much yet)

One of a bunch of concept arts I've drawn (so far) for an AU I'm working on :) it's been loads of fun, I can't wait to share more of it!
