This was a super random thought in my head, but hey, most of them start that way. My two favorite underrated heroes in-training from MHA are about 25 years older here, and decide to adopt a dog together for Valentines Day, b/c reasons. Reasons I don’t have.
[Image description: Pencil and watercolor sketch of a hero costume redesign for Ojiro. His features are exaggerated, with slightly pointed ears, fluffy, monkey-like sideburns and long, strong arms that end in clawed hands. He has bare, monkey-like feet with opposable toes. His pale, almost white hair is thick and carries down over his hands and feet, as well as coating his large tail. His fur lined gi is bulky and tucked into heavy, studded metal bracers on his arms and legs. It is worn over a black high collar martial arts shirt with blue trim, which matches his utility belt. There are also heavy metal bracers on the end of his tail to make it deadly like a mace or bludgeon. End description.]
[Image description: Sero and Oiro in hero costumes, hanging upside down. Ojiro is hanging from a beam by his long tail, with his arms dangling. The fur ruff of his gi bunches up around his face, which has thick sideburns. He has studded metal bracers and his bare feet are shown to be prehensile like a monkey. He grins lazily at Sero, bearing pointed canines. Sero is hanging down spider-man style from a line of tape. His helmet obscures his face but the speech bubble from him has a sly little wink-y face. End description.]
Quickly posting some Twitter doodles of a slight update to my Ojiro family OCs - I never felt like I really nailed down Mr. Ojiro but I think I like this look on him better. What a good shape for a dad
[Image description: two sketches of Mashirao Ojiro and his family: His father, a friendly looking man with a beer belly and a scruffy beard, wearing an apron. He has small horns and an extremely long, white tail - almost twice the length of his son’s, which drags heavily on the ground. Ojiro’s mother is a small woman with a mutation quirk giving her a furry appearance like a japanese macaque. Of his siblings, only Mashirao has the oversized tail, though they all have the fluffy sideburns and slightly monkey-like appearance; his older sister has their father’s horns, and the younger two have smaller, more manageable tails. In the first image they stand facing forward, with Mashirao and his father’s tails circling around the family. In the second, all the siblings heft their father’s long tail over their shoulders (except the youngest, who hangs off the end of it, grinning. End description.]
