ronin's concept art iterations!
🕑 Added 2024-11-30 20:00:02 +0000 UTCwant to know how ronin's design could've gone? well... here you go! :) drawn by the incredible a_sakanya! (blue ronin rights, anyone?)
my design brief:
ronin is american with chinese and french heritage. his style is edgy/metal goth and grunge. chains and sword necklaces, band tees and leather jackets. baggy, casual, “i don’t give a fuck” vibe. he has a slasher mask that he uses during murders.
he wears a bunch of colourful bracelets that his best friend gave to him when they were kids; this is jumbled up with his gothic bracelets. but it’s there.
pronounced devil and grotesque imagery slathers his clothing; he’s playing it up.
has a beanie with horns poking out of them, which he wears.
a self-styled tattoo lines his arm: “lose”.

hi! so sorry, i didn't see this somehow! but ronin listens to euringer, slipknot, the neighborhood, hozier, sub urban, mindless self indulgence and sohodolls!

Do you think you'd ever feel comfortable enough to share more specifically what music/bands you think he'd listen to? I've thought about it but it would be kinda fun to know some bands that I could associate with him in a more canon way. Sorry to double comment. :) thank you

He provides such a nihilism vibe. Feels like radiation T-T I love these so much!

yes! i did love the red wine trousers so much - it really makes his design pop. and yes, the bracelets are still a part of ronin's design, just under his jacket! (lore-wise, i don't think he'd go anywhere without them.)

i find it interesting to see how the design evolved; i understand why you went with the red trousers, they're too good to resist! to the other commenters: my understanding is that the bracelets are still part of his design, simply hidden under his jacket. i quite like that about them (if only for fanfic purposes) because it makes them something you'd have to know him for a while to learn about.
