I wasn't feeling well one day, so I did a whole lot of drawings in order to make myself feel a little better, and because of that I thought it would be fun to challenge myself and draw my characters in different styles or doing different things than they would normally do. This is a little bit like the post I did previously, except that I'm using pre-created characters and asking what they should be doing instead of creating a totally new character.
Since NaNoWrimo has a thread dedicated to polls, I thought it would be fun to do polls that could produce drawing exercises for me. What I did was ask people to vote for which character I should draw, and then ask them what should happen in the drawing in a separate poll.
And these drawings are what came out of it (unless I say otherwise all of these were majority votes):
This is a drawing of Elm which I decided would be fun to draw in the Disney 2D animated style.
I really like how it turned out.
Since Annabelle detests dresses (for reasons that you will find out in the future),
I thought it would be interesting to draw her wearing one that appeared in my book.
Even though she really doesn't like it, I still like how it turned out.

Phoenix in 2D animated drawing style, this time mimicking that of Tangled the Series.
This is a drawing of Elm using her powers which are her singing abilities.
Her singing has magical attributes, which can cause the world around her
to dance, among other things.
Since Halloween was soon...ish when I drew this, I had Detective Inspector Time investigating a creepy (and haunted) house.
This one was particularly hard because Annabelle is a morally gray character and turning her into a villain is difficult. Annabelle can be seen as either, and she is often seen as a threat by those around her. So instead of going full out evil villain, I turned her into an assassin instead. She is a detective (in her story), so making her a murderer would be completely different.
Even though this was not the majority vote, I decided to draw Phoenix as a villain anyway. Interestingly enough, everything he would wear as a villain would be raven-themed. And he would have fun being a villain. Also, for some reason I imagine him stroking a raven or crow like most villains would a cat.
This drawing also helped me figure out what would cause Phoenix to go from a protagonist to an antagonist.
Someone at one point thought it would be neat to see Annabelle in Steampunk clothes.
So I ended up drawing her that way, even though it was not the top vote. And I have a feeling she would like the Steampunk outfit a lot better than she did the dress from earlier.

Which drawing is your favorite? What would your character(s) be like if they became a villain?
