Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
this is all i could think of when i saw her trailer, like cherries are round and so are the wishing currenciesβ
Now presenting, Rover-with-his-hair-down: a concept
This could apply to female Rover pretty decently as well, but probably with more white parts of the hair
I haven't really seen any hair-down art of the rovers yet so I decided to draw some >:D
(I made this before I went to bed on impulse so it's a bit messy)
SPOILERS FOR WUTHERING WAVES ACT 6: my issue with the reveal of [spoiler] isn't the fact that it even exists, but the fact that it doesn't mesh well with the game's art-style AT ALL.
The idea of Rover's Tacit mark being home to some kind of powerful entity that appears friendly but might have some sinister motives or unknown properties (because let's be real, even in its existing form, this guy is quite suspicious and we know nothing about it) is pretty cool.
But if you look at the existing animals in game, both enemies / echos and NPCs like dogs and cats, the game goes for a more realistic style for most of them. Some are cute, but most look more epic or badass and fit into the apocalyptic and gritty style of the game (even as the game itself wanders away from that). Additionally, all Tacit Discords thus far either mimic real creatures like wolves, bears, boars, or herons, or take the form of mutated humanoids that look deformed and warped, or take the form of mystical creatures, like the Morning Aix.
If they'd leaned towards more of those design elements, creating a sleek creature that still has some cute elements, I feel like this creature would have felt less out-of-place. Perhaps more of a bird-like or even dragon-like design, or a fluffy serpentine dragon (keeping the long fluffy ears and markings) would have worked better. Also making it walk on four legs instead of looking like a marketable plushie.
This isn't even touching on the reveal of this critter. It feels too sudden; I feel like it needed some more foreshadowing (which would have been easier without the story rewrites, yes) like the silhouette of its design being shown, or lore hints about Tacit Marks being home to some kind of conscious entity or power that isn't fully understood yet. Also, it would have hit harder if it felt like the Rover consciously was aware of this guy and summoned itβlike if Rover had some kind of vision / hallucination / flashback montage or quick images flashing in their head. Instead it just feels like this guy popped out of nowhere. It also hurts the previous reveal of Havoc Rover, making them seem weak in comparison to this little furby looking guy.
ALSO its color scheme. Tacit Discords thus far seem to be most strongly associated with purple and gold, and Rover matches this, starting off with golden Spectro powers and moving to purple Havoc powers. SO WHY IS THIS GUY WHITE, BLUE, AND ORANGE??? Its color scheme also threw me off a lot π
So anyways, that's my take on the matter. What do you guys think?
The fact that this fix actually helps some people is sending me πππ
Ngl wuwa is growing on me more and more
original post
inspiration is one hell of a drug
wuwa peak character design
(this post is mostly a joke i have tons of designs based off other ppls stuff and i know most of these design elements arent exclusive to hoyo i just find it funny)
dont forget jiyan looking like xiao and dan hengs long lost cousin, but he got jing yuans job
and verina looking like yao yao and nahida's secret sister
wuwa peak character design
I wasnt fond of the game at first (except for the cutscenes, male rover, and movement controls) but it's been growing on me
(i dont have him but my friend sent me this pic and it was too funny to pass up)
Question: Whats a fandom (or a piece of a fandom) you indulge in but are too ashamed to admit that you actively avoid doing anything that would expose you? (Ex. Liking on an alt, βwhat u looking atβ βNOTHINGβ, not following creators if you cant private your follows). And why?
(Totally not me in the example)
Decided to draw my fav characters from Wuwa so far!
I love Jiyan but my gosh is this man's hair hard to draw ππ
Quick concept/test doodles for a Wuthering Waves oc I've been thinking about ^^ They don't have a name and I don't know what their element is yet, but they're an Exile and if they were playable they'd be a healer. And uh...yeah. I don't. I don't know much more about them yet.
Doodled the Wuwa Rovers! <3 Been loving this game so far!
(If you saw me post this yesterday- I took it down cause I wanted to fix the male Rover's hair)
Passing the Scarisma check no issue
They listen to Bernadette about their atrocious pinings together ^^
