Chapter Title: Girl's Treaty
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Girl's Treaty.
It's roughly a story about girls in a modern world invaded by aliens who make a magical girl pact with another group of friendly aliens to save Earth. Something like that.
Though they're called girls, it's basically a game where young women fight aliens.
The characters come in all sorts of ethnicities too.
From Korean descent to white, Black, Hispanic, and even characters from other East Asian countries.
So the characters are diverse and appealing.
It feels like they've turned every nation's ideal beauty into characters.
The character Lin I drew last time was Chinese, I think.
And the one I decided to draw this time is American.
What was her name? Helen?
She's got abundant golden hair and a fantastic figure befitting a Western beauty.
Her outfit is pretty revealing too—white tank top, blue jacket, denim short shorts. It's... something else.
That's part of why I was worried about Twitch restrictions.
The base illustration already appeals to guys so much, so mine has to crank it up even more, right?
That means certain points are bound to get emphasized.
Not that I wanted to draw them that way, of course.
[(Sponsored) First Official Fanart Stream]
So today, I'll be a bit careful.
-Waited for this lol
-Hi hi
-Finally
"Alright, today's a sponsored stream."
-Yeah
-Yep
-Draw already go go
These impatient viewers demanded art the second I went live.
They don't really just want to see the drawings—they want to know how well I can draw.
I already showed a glimpse in the last sponsored stream, so they're all hyped. Meeting expectations is what makes a pro streamer.
I switched the screen to the canvas right away.
"First, let's warm up by drawing our members?"
Time to loosen up my hand, and for the first official fanart stream, I wanted to draw Heavenly Realm members.
-Oh
-Nice
-Draw Roa please
"I'll draw everyone, so don't worry."
If I skip even one, it'll spark favoritism rumors and all sorts of fake news, so I have to draw them all.
Excluding me, that's five— a bit much, but I'll keep it super simple, so no big deal.
"I'll mix in my take on their images."
Just drawing plain would be boring, right?
We've had various events, and with weekly dance lessons, I've built up images of the members.
-Kya lol
-Draw our Roa well yeah
-Please draw Anna-nim nicely
"Don't worry."
I already got permission from all the members.
Some even sent gift icons as bribes, begging me to do them justice.
"Alright, starting with the big sis who sent the cheese cake and coffee set gift icon begging for a pretty drawing."
-lolololololol
-Anna-gae...
-Bribe accepted lol
-Social game vet as expected
Scribble scribble-
Every stroke of the pen on the tablet brings out the form.
Planning to draw her cute in chibi style.
Anna's character brings to mind... brown hair and a straw hat?
In my image, she has to be wearing a cardigan too.
"Anna-unnie seems so reliable, right? Like if you got bullied, she'd go sort it out."
-Fr
-Anna mommy ㅜㅠㅜ
-Straight GOAT
I drew her pose sharp and upright.
Hands on hips, scolding someone.
Chibi style makes it just cute, though.
-So cuuute lololol
-Look at that expression
-She really draws well
I finished coloring quickly after sketching fast.
I've been practicing this style, so it shouldn't take long anyway.
"There we go, Heavenly Realm's mom role complete."
-Already?
-Damn mommy
-Super fast
-Quality tho why so good? lololol
"Next."
And so I drew the Heavenly Realm members one by one.
I drew Mile a bit smaller, true to image. Every time we meet, her short height really hits home. Especially next to Maho, the size difference stands out.
On that note, I drew Maho tall right beside her.
-Wtf height diff lololol
-Heart eyes lolol
-Maho that tall?
"Maho-unnie? Man, she could be a volleyball or basketball pro. Model material too."
Not super skinny like a model... but that's just from holing up at home.
If she trained properly, her height would make modeling no issue.
Her frame is a tad big, so maybe athlete fits better?
Anyway, next was Haru.
Haru... my first impression hasn't changed much.
Total bright college girl vibe who takes tons of Insta pics.
So I drew her that way.
The problem was next—Roa...
No matter what, my mental image of the real her clashes way too much with her character?
Mixing them might mess up her stream big time.
"Hmm... Roa."
-Roa?
-Do it right yeah
-Watching
Her fandom's loyalty is high, so the chat buzzed even more.
Big expectations for Roa.
I couldn't slap on a fake image, so while pondering, a good idea hit.
"Guitar suits her perfectly."
Her base character is so pure, adding a few elements won't ruin it, right?
A guitar, if drawn well...
-Kya
-This is Roa
-Insane
Yep, reactions like that.
I tweaked it a bit.
The flashy sticker-covered guitar from my head became a pure beige acoustic, outfit back to Roa's default, legs crossed strumming away.
Phew... Roa should be satisfied with this.
But shouldn't I have gotten a bribe from Roa?
She just cheekily said "do me well" and nothing else.
[Artisan Miro-nim, 10,000 won donation! Thank you!]
Won't you draw yourself?
As I was wrapping up warm-ups, a donation message popped.
They want my self-portrait too.
"Me? No need, right?"
-Draw it pls
-Curious what you think of yourself
-Pls draw...
"Fine, super simple then."
-Kya lololol
-Big Miro
-Thx..!
-Knew it GOAT
Hmm... my image.
In Heavenly Realm, isn't Miro... getting some special treatment, in my opinion?
She was an extra pick when it was supposed to be five originally.
Manager checks schedules with me specially, tells me stuff first.
I was even at the 2nd gen interviews. Perks of seniority, sure.
Her fandom doesn't overlap much with others, giving off elite guard vibes...
So this it is.
No hesitation after deciding—I swung the pen.
-???
-Wtf?
-Nice drawing but wtf outfit
My Miro character wore a medieval robe straight out of fantasy.
Pink hair peeking from the hood suited her perfectly.
"I'm like a shadowy mastermind."
-?
-U ok??
"Nah, like the one pulling strings behind Heavenly Realm Project."
-lolololololololol
-Legend lololol
-Young and foolish lolol
"Like the Ten Eunuchs in China or something."
-Isn't that diff?
-Drawing cuuute lolol
-Chew ten eunuchs lolol
-Ten Miro ddd
"You begged me to draw it, why laugh?"
-lololololol
-Butthurt?
-Look at that lip pout
"Anyway, time for the main sponsored fanart."
I put up the official illust of today's character on one side of the screen.
-ㅇㅜㅑ
-Noona incoming..
-Oliver incoming..
"Behold, Helen, the shadowy mastermind ruling America."
-???
-Building up here?
-How far does she see?
-She planned this
-Black幕? Secret no? Spoilers?
"Here's the official character profile too."
I pulled up the official profile.
Body specs, fave foods, pet peeves, basic info, and below a rough story summary.
Long-ass explanation of how 22-year-old college student Helen from California made the magical girl pact and started fighting aliens.
But nowhere in the official profile did "mastermind" appear.
-Not a mastermind?
-Wtf?
-This girl's for real lololol
"Of course not. I just made it up."
-You damn fool
-Sigh lololol
-Knew it
"But now, we'll make it canon."
It was made up, but won't it depend on how I draw Helen today?
"Time to slap a Miro skin on Helen."
Luckily, I'm damn confident in this area.
