Zill - Blog Posts

Here are some concept drawings for some characters from Zoophobia with my headcanons. Some of the outfits were mostly just practice and experimenting with different styles.

Jack I wanted to give him a more interesting design and give him a better shade of brown than the yellowish brown Vivz gave him. The first outfit was for his love for space that sometimes people forget because it gets overshadowed in his character thanks to his curse. I love to give him green eyes because that’s always the color associated with him and green eyes are the rarest color as 2% in the whole world. The varsity jacket is supposed to symbolize his bond with Rusty that might come into later. The last one outfit, well, there’s a secret for it.

With Zill I wanted him to be more unique compared to most interpretations of Zill. Most people would make her a jock just because she’s athletic. So I made him goth to make him stand out. I don’t like stereotypes mainly because some of them are harmful. Like “jocks are dumb or jerks” or “goths like creepy satanic stuff”. So while Zill is goth she still has her charisma and optimism, like Mavis from Hotel Transylvania. Also it’s hard to find colors that don’t clash with Zill’s colors. The red dress is mostly just for dates.

Kayla I was figuring out for since they’re meant to be gender-fluid to me. I had some inspiration for the clothes from instagram that suits Kayla. I tried to show a muscular built but I think the sleeves might’ve covered them. But I want to give them a muscular build because they’re athletic. I seen that most people focused a lot more on Kayla’s love for music that they forgot that they’re capable of defending themselves. Kayla willingly faced Vengenza with a foil.

Finally Damian who had the biggest change. I wanted to give them a plus size body type because I don’t see a lot of plus size royalty. Next their fur is curly because I imagine them to be part Egyptian which is meant to reference the Middle East where the events in the Bible takes place. The dark markings are meant to look like pied markings goats have since Lucifer is meant to be goat like. I couldn’t figure what outfit would be their main one so there’s a lot of them.
