ID under cut
[ID: Two drawings of castlevania character Soma Cruz in bat form. The bat in the bottom left corner is white with pinkish wings and ears, pouting at the camera. The bat in the top right is also white, but his ears are a white flesh tone, and he is screaming. The photos at the bottom were the reference photos, and thus are very similar, but with more detail. End ID]
I. I don’t have any reason for this.

[ID; a photo of a yellow cap that says “Solvem Probler” and a drawing of castlevania character Soma Cruz wearing said hat, a white cropped jacket, and his trademark bell bottoms . In the right of the drawing, Soma is sitting, leaning back with one arm and raising the other to his hat with a smug expression. In the top right of the drawing Soma Cruz is drawn in a different style -only his head and hand are shown- the yellow hat still atop his head. He is pulling down his hat to show the viewer the words on it. End ID]
A messy doodle of Soma Cruz.
It’s been way too long since I’ve drawn him or posted anything here, so I hope y’all like it, even if it’s not all that fleshed out.
I linked the song I was listening to on loop while I was getting this done. It kind of pushed me to get this out since the lyrics make me think of Soma a lot, so that’s here too if y’all are curious and just wanna listen to something new. :)
I wanted to draw Vampire Soma with a long braid again. Now in a fun band t-shirt!
I can’t write the Mexican/Chicano Soma Cruz fanfics that I want (for now), so I’ll draw him instead.
He’s fun to draw anyway, and I thought it’d be nice to put him in some looser, more casual clothing.
No color and a little messier this time, but I really love the way Soma looks wearing a tilmàtli, and wanted to give him one with more patterns along the edges.
I want more art of Soma when he’s older. I want more art of Soma being Mexican. I want more Mexican vampires in general. But I am lacking in mental fortitude and talent, so here’s all three of those things blended together, rendered with all my love and the last of my dwindling creative energy, for y’all’s viewing pleasure.
I felt like drawing Soma, and I felt like drawing a black dog. So here is Soma with a black dog.
“I still desperately cling to the headcanon that Soma Cruz is Mexican, so I made this.”
I wish my first contribution to this fandom was some of my own art and not a recolor, but alas. All I have hidden in my folders apart from this are half-hearted doodles I won’t be posting anytime soon. 😓
But that aside, I’m pretty happy with this! And before anyone @s me. I know Soma is Japanese, that the exchange student thing was added to the English localization to make him more relatable to an American audience. But…I dunno, y’all. I still find my little rationalizations for it. He could easily have one Mexican parent and one Japanese. And the thought of him being Mexican like me just helped to further endear him to me, and I’m sure I’m not alone in that.
