Were there any stories that influenced your magical girl story?

Of course there’s all the magical girl shows I watched growing up, but I’m also a big fan of sci-fi/horror movies (especially those that feature monsters) and sometimes I watch shonen series too. I don’t really limit myself on what I watch as long as I enjoy it.

I guess the best way to put it is that in all the magical girl stories I’ve seen there was certain things that I wish were explored more (ex: what happens to magical girls when they become adults? What if the monsters they fought looked more creature-like? What happens to social culture when a magical threat has existed for decades?) And this story is an amalgamation of that and what I personally want to see explored in a magical girl comic.

Going forward I’ve removed all my comics from Webtoon Canvas as I don’t feel confident hosting it there anymore.

Thank you for understanding

#text #update #and if you’re wondering yes it has to do with their treatment of their creators but I think the threads about it speak for itself

[marighoul]

what type of foes do your magical girls normally face?

Most of the time it’s Dreadlings (monsters the size of a dog but become dangerous if they hunt in packs)

They’re not interested in humans, but the longer they stay alive the more unstable their forms become and it can become a problem if guardians don’t take care of it right away since there’s bigger monsters to worry about…

Finally after months of searching I find another crunchy brush that I like (just the ash pen tho I can't do lineweight anymore)

#text #it's hard to find brushes i like so if I can recc them it might help someone else out

[marighoul]

Tried some new sketching brushes

Are there fairies in your magical girl world?

Yeah the first faerie you’ll meet in the story is Bud!He’s responsible for giving all the guardians their magic. (Still reworking his design at the moment I put a few down below). Although what you see isn’t his true form.

There are other faeries but they’re not as friendly as him

#im too sleepy for this decision maybe

[marighoul]

TBH I think giving Sweetheart firearms for her magical girl weapon was one of my best ideas just because of the funny imagery of her saying such optimistic things while being prepared to blast someone away

#please read glitter and guilt if you want to read more adult magical girls

I know Magical March is over but maybe I can do Magical Girl May? I could post more oc stuff when I’m back from my break
