Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
six fanarts except it’s all ace attorney characters :)
I can't even properly explain how much I love Farewell, my Turnabout. It's a fucking MASTERPIECE of a case!! The characters are especially a big part of why I adore it. I WAS GENUINELY SO STRESSED OUT AND THE BAD ENDING FUCKING BROKE ME.
The interactions in this case are so fun and engaging. Idk how to express my love for it in text. (Also Adrian Andrews is the best side character I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL.)
Oh 100% Phoenix has major abandonment issues and a massive savior complex. He isn’t a defense attorney for himself, and he probably has little to no identity outside of it.
Comparing Phoenix’s issues to Adrian Andrews’ “dependent nature” is quite fitting really. The parallels between them are so interesting.
They both obsessed with someone close to them and modeled part of their career after them (Adrian acting like Celeste as a manager, Phoenix becoming a lawyer to save Edgeworth). They are both devastated when said person leaves them. They both forsake the truth because they are too dependent on someone else (Adrian forging evidence and Phoenix trying to get Engarde acquitted). And at the end of 2-4 they are both saved by the truth (when Edgeworth shows them the meaning of trust and finding the truth).
the more I think about phoenix wright the more convinced I am of how deeply fucked up he is
mostly ace attorney but there is a lil cinnamaroll gajinka (which is a humanized form of a non human character of you don’t know) that i did with my friend and idk she’s kinda cute
she’s the only glimpse of color i have in my sketchbook so that’s something lol (plus the franziska too ig but i colored cinnamaroll first)
woah two drawings in one day!?? yea i’m js in the mood for art i suppose, anyways enjoy some random doodles of Adrian bc i love her <3
aka me being absolutely bored out of my mind to try and create different designs for characters that would be interesting to have in a trilogy together!
Notes below!
So kept it simple with Phoenix and Miles. I honestly don't mind their designs overall and felt it'd be important to simply keep a simple idea with them.
I do kind of think Miles' coat is a little awkward loooking in the games, so fuck it -- give this man the long waist coat
I also added elements of Kay and Trucy because dadworth and dadnix! <3 (plus Franziska earring)
Lastly, I decided to give Phoenix two different kinds of shoes. Yes, he's theoretically like- the big boss and i guess professionallism but fuck it, i stand for phoenix wearing sneakers for the CONVENIENCE
----------------------------------------
Next is... Kay and Trucy!
I'll be honest, it's hard to redesign Trucy. But I don't know about her 3D model... something feels off.
So, I decided to go with a white dress shirt-ish look.
I also think, since Phoenix calls Trucy her shining light, it'd be interesting if she switched to a star motif, which is where I get all my choices for the simplified cloak and emblem on it.
But she still has a heart ida-bag from Edgeworth and Kay!
Finally! Smug Kay
I don't have many notes on her design, it being more for looks and a practical aspect than anything. But! It matches nicely with trucy and edgeworth's while also being distinctly hers.
no phoenix because i didn't really wanna add anything blue I suppose? If there was soemthing from pheonix, it'd be hidden, like playing cards!
-----------------------------------
It was fairly easy what I wanted for Apollo and Athena
Apollo - JACKET, Khur'ain clothing (from staying there for a few years), scars, and EAARING!!
Jacket's similar to Clay's and his adopted dad (have not seen any gameplay of aa5-6, so I don't know all of the significance yet...)
Khurain clothing is from his vest, sort of like a button open up
He has his scars from aa5 and earring's from Trucy and Phoenix!
I need his actual in-game deign to incorporate- like- the things in his life PLEASE
~~
Athena - Athletic and spunky + implementation of headphones!
Everything is pretty similar from her old design and what many other redesigns from other artists have,
Catch is that I added suspenders that matches with Phoenix's, changed her tie, sneakers, and short hair!
Most assymetrical symmetrical design I could think of... (unintentionally)
OH ALSO EYEBROW NOTCH FOR ATHENA, ODD EYEBROW TRIO COMPLETE!!!
--------------------
Lastly!! Iris, Adrian, and Pearly!!
I've recently gotten a little crazy over Adrian x Iris art from @handsometimr and I think it's honestly a really cool potential dynamic <33
SO YOU GET THAT, I GUESS?
Pearl, I'd imagine, would still be trying to stick to her training and actually - for a good period during the 7 year gap - lived with Iris and the familiar Adrian!
I kept Pearl in her outfit, but with a jacket and seashell to clip into her hair. (agaain, idk what happened in aa5 so-- just making ideas up)
Iris and Adrian!! Either engaged, married, gfs IDK
Adrian's outfit is pretty based of her design in aa3
but Iris is to be basically breaking out of her form, doing whatever she wants, but still keeping a little piece of Dhalia with her through the necklace.
But ofc, short hair and braids. perfect <33
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk haha!
