My theory is that the miketwt grim reaper is a battatfan, plueyfan, and jonglerfan who are covering for the real miketwt grim reaper, who mysteriously disappeared
realistically the miketwt grim reaper isn't one person. it's too easy to make a priv and have no followers so you can comment underneath everyone's stuff unseen. it's probs multiple people
ESPECIALLY with mlp, and ESPECIALLY when there's already infighting about pinkie pie
im not saying you cant use this for personal headcanoning and these are just drops in the bucket, but this feels like a pretty obvious pitfall this trend falls into
i think that greyscale skin color trend is short sighted
a lot of the media people are using for this have either pastel or bright colors with only darker colors being used on villains, it just like this idea was doomed from the start
you know what? here's pointless design commentary
for all of the blue battle sprites I make, I try to keep his elegance and confidence, even in his downed sprite but NOT his swooned sprite
if i ever sprite the other flowers, I want to do something similar
@TemmieOrSmth99 I would see that as bad writing simply for the fact that there's set up for there to be a mystery surrounding his disappearance, it'd feel pointless if that was there for no reason. It'd be like making Ramb a secret boss just for hype, but even then, that's at least fun.
@obisck potentially torn out navigation and communication gear? they have "old techy" vibes while still being modern. could also use the shapes of safety vests or lighthouse motifs, though ramb would end up getting short end of the stick and work as a janitor or in the cafeteria lol
