Using Polls to Create Art #1

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. 

                                         **trigger warning: This drawing contains a bit of blood** 

Since Halloween was soon...ish when I drew this, I had Detective Inspector Time investigating a creepy (and haunted) house. 

                                                           **end of trigger warning** 

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?
