she/her | Undertale/deltarune, FNaF, atla | sometimes I do drawings
{sincerely thanks for your likes and reblogs, i read them all and it makes me widely silly smiling}
characters which i've met during my 19th year (mostly fandom, except the central - it's my OC). it was very exciting to draw. happy to know all these guys :)
in dr swatchlings were presented as the crowd of servants with the same behavior model. and i really like how fandom artists start interpret the swatchlings story, create the background and go out of the boundaries of character image. i've reflected about it since i heard the MOTI's Pandora Palace song, which pushed me to think that there is something more behind 'the crowd'.
in short: go for it, dude!
This is one of the first concept arts I made for the Swatch in my AU. When I get an idea I usually tend to draw it and while I draw I fleshen out the story behind the idea in my head before actually writing about it.
For context, in my visual novel, many Darkners has creative in-depth backstories, and Swatch and the Swatchlings are not an exception.
In this case here he is seen at the beginning of his career before becoming the head butler of Queen. All the Swatchlings were "born" from him (by means explained in the plot). He took good care of them and made sure to turn them into well trained butlers before they became the strapping servants other people grew to love to have around. They are like 28 Swatchlings, all with their own personalities, their own names, boons and flaws. Though they still change colour depending of the mood and other external factors, they all have fixed colours for their personalities. Their names are:
((* the ones not shown on the picture because of being an early concept picture and I was still wondering about each of them))
The rainbow marks on Swatch's body are the scars left by the wires of Queen from the time she managed to "tame" him... The masks were created by Tasque Manager to curb their feral natures, as per orders of Queen.
For everything else, at least it was a first step into turning my AU ideas into a more visible form. It motivates me to go forward, and to practice more digital art. I still have one more concept art of Swatch to share. Will post it later.
Swatch hatched Miro and Simmitri from one of his earliest eggs, and the child proved a challenge with their 2 mouths to feed but only one body.
With Swatchlings having a ravenous appetite as babies and the twins proving too challenging for Swatch at the time- Tasque Manager steps up to help him, taking the twins off his hands to help raise them instead.
They've since grown into disciplined young adults with a tamed appetite and an odd love for chasing Maus.
*Swatch has since mastered parenthood and has 200+ sons under his wing now.
in my language's localization they were translated as "Skvoreckie" (= starlings) and i enjoy this variant, but have never thought seriously about their species.... does anyone know which part of the Internet became their prototype? services of cache cleaning?
can never decide what birds i think swatch & the swatchlings are
