“Fokozatosan, apránként elveszítik önmagukat, míg végül már csak árnyai korábbi énjüknek, üres burkok, ragyogással lepve, hogy valóságosnak látsszanak. Idővel egyszerűen megszűnnek létezni.”

I started reading the official Iron King comic adaptation and it made me so angry I spontaneously decided to make my own version. I’ve calmed down since, but here are some character designs.
Explanations:
- I know the changeling is supposed to look just like Ethan, but I still want him to have a nightmare face sometimes. Also, blank eyes as an easy visual shorthand to show who is who.
- Ash has a blue earring to give some color to his very black-and-white design and also tie him in with the Unseelie Court (see also: Mab’s lipstick).
- Machina’s black roots were a coloring mistake, but I like the effect so I’m keeping it.
- I know Machina’s eyes are described as slanted, but since I’ve already used that eye shape a lot for the other fae gentry, I changed it. In my opinion he has a certain droopy-eyed energy anyway.
- Titania’s hair should probably be longer but the curly updo just suits her so well. I like the period drama, princess-like look of it. Also, curly Titania vs. straight-haired Mab for the Contrast™️.
