Kara but with puffy magical girl hair???

Wanted to make a draft for an upcoming idea for a drawing. I may have to revamp the little magical girl design I did (again). What’s next? Poofy sleeves? Poofy skirt? More bows? Four-Nines upgrade?!

Who knows? I’ll probably add a bit of color to her hair.

cheese.

Enjoy this small doodle of Kara and Lah-botomy! She’s introducing the baby bot to new foods so she stops consuming all those space rocks. :)

Kara bot still eats the rocks anyways.

Idol/Forcelight Arc: END♯

I was originally going to finish this in time for Visions’ 5th anniversary but it unfortunately took a bit longer than I expected, yet the best things come in wait.

This was actually drawn on the final page of my first big sketchbook (I have another one that I’ll use next time). The second image is a full-body concept of Forcelight’s final round outfits and I might leave it without color since the details are too small to color in, so the palette is up to speculation (though F’s details are gold while Kara’s silver).

I tried drawing most of the Visions characters in idol fits this time. If you’re wondering why Lah-botomy/Kara Bot isn’t in this, she’s currently recovering after being battered and fried by Karl. You should be glad that creature is tied up for his crimes.

Happy (late) 5th anniversary to Star Wars Visions! (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)

Mecha pilot Kara doodle

“I may be just a Jedi. But now, I’m a Jedi with a giant robot!”

I haven’t drawn anything in a long while, so about time I post something. Second photo is the reference I used, with the third one being what the mech itself looks like (the mech’s name is Sentinel No. 9 PERCIVAL).

Not much to say for this one. I might draw F again next time. (^。^)

Mouse PNG

The cutest ever. Give her a moon rock that looks like cheese.

I hope she doesn’t become fried mozzarella herself…

Maid Kara Bot is real!

Fancy some tea? Kara Bot will get it for you. How about some cheesecake? She’s got that covered. Floor’s dirty? Cleaned up in a jiffy! Whatever the situation, she is cheesed to meet you (holy reference)!

I’ve been thinking about the idea for two days now. Maid-pocalypse will never end lol. Tried to go all in on the mouse imagery. “But, Koni!! If there was a maid cafe in space, how many Kara Bots are needed for the job?” That’s easy to answer; There is more than one Lah-botomized Kara Bot. They‘ll keep infesting the entire galaxy, just like a mouse would. Jokes aside, she ended up cuter than I expected. I would like to have a little Kara Bot in my house now. o(^▽^)o

Idol-style/magical girl-ish outfit for Kara.

Updated the idol outfit she had in one of my last posts. Sorry if the details are hard to see, as the space I was drawing in was smaller this time around because I’m using a medium sized sketchbook. Sorry for no coloring either, same reason. (´⊙ω⊙`)

Anyways, DESIGN NOTES:

- Obviously based on the robes, but it’s vague even if you squint your eyes hard enough. I tried to make sure the skirt didn’t look too much like a tutu. Mission failed successfully.

- Same Four-Nines ribbon. Too many callbacks to that at this point.

- Dove wing earpieces recycled aswell. I just like seeing Kara with bird imagery, even in the slightest.

- About the poofy sleeves, I kinda scrolled down the internet for inspo. Also, semi-inspired(?) by Princess Knight. Idk, I’m just used to drawing unique-looking sleeves for cute outfits.

- Tried to keep the boots simple, added fluffy trim to it.

- If you’ve noticed, the ribbons have this half-circle cut. Lately, I’ve been thinking about her being compared to a mouse back in TNJ episode 1, and do you know what cliche type of food is often paired with mice in popular media: cheese. I didn’t want to add too many holes as it would ruin the entire design + don’t want to trigger trypophobia. Also, it kinda reminds me of the teeth of a key. *insert unnecessary Kingdom Hearts reference here.*

Hopefully I draw a much more clearer image of the design so I can color it. ( ;∀;) I think I should take a break from complex designs by drawing more Lah-botomy…

That one time I made F and Lah Kara in Tekken 8.

This is what happens when my interests invades the games I play.

I just do shit.

Tiny Uma/horse girl Kara doodle

omg she’s so cute she’s so awwwwwww

I’m thinking of one of horse names being Tundra Peaks or smth. Her English VA voicing horse characters led me to draw Kara as an Uma lol.

Kara - Dress☆Up

I had a bit of fun with drawing Kara in different outfits (the idol one was my most favorite but I want to do a little revamp later). The second pic is an older doodle but I‘m not sure if I already posted it here.

She’s babysitting the strange-looking Kara bot. Where did it come from…?

Something I need to talk about.

I've been a fan of Visions since 2022 and it was the main catalyst for how I got back to Star Wars in recent years. Not only did I love it because it coincided with my growing obsession with anime and anime-styled media, but it was also because of the artistic approach of the anthology series. I love this series with my whole heart and it's special to me.

Though recently, I've been seeing some posts on the subreddit discussing about how Visions straying away from canon wasn't a good thing or smth. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure this is just canon elitists who are upset that it intentionally strays away from the canon timeline. I understand how they feel, but at the same time, why bother watching it if you don't like non-canon media??? I mean, there's Legends but I barely touch it so I'm not gonna dive into that. So my controversial take on this: Just because it's non-canon, doesn't mean it's bad. Listen, I'm not saying criticism is bad, but most of the time, it's like they're missing the point of the series. Visions was created as a way to show how Star Wars can been seen in a different creative lens. They told Star Wars their own way with original characters in mind, even if some episodes have either shown or mention canon characters (ex. Tatooine Rhapsody, The Lost Ones). At the end of the day, it's just another Star Wars project. I just don't understand the unnecessary hate it's getting.

At this point, I think it's starting to become difficult for me to enjoy Star Wars Visions because of how some SW fans want to be salty about it now. I'm an artist, not professionally, and I resonate with the series as a whole because all the studios involved were creative on the episodes they're involved in and I stayed with it because of the various artstyles and characters. It's not hard to avoid watching it if it's not your cup of tea. It's a hidden gem imo and it is very beautiful, especially with the newly released Ninth Jedi anime.

If you don't like Visions, I don't mind. I just want to let out my personal opinions on all this. That's all I gotta say.

Ever wondered where the first idol outfits went? Well…

I’m getting crucified for this.

The old but gold idol dresses are back, but at what cost? 🥹 This is why you don’t trust me with drawing men or else this happens. I thought I could draw something funny for once. Tbh, I missed drawing simple outfits. I’m too lazy to color it though…

What do you all think about F personally?

Enough time has passed. Let’s talk about our speed queen of Visions. ( ◠‿◠ )

When I first watched Visions back in 2022, F was the first character I fell in love with. I really love her story and design. I just wish there was more of her. Considering she is one of the more popular characters in the anthology series (probably thanks to Volume 3, but that’s just me yapping), I hope a limited series based on those two episodes is possible. Kinda sad how we barely get merch or basically anything other than digital trading cards of her. I would accept any recognition for F. She’s just a cool character in general but it could go deeper. That’s why I love drawing her besides Kara. She’s got a special place in my heart.

Chita burning dinner (because why not?)

I guess smugglers aren’t really good at cooking…

Just a silly drawing before I draw the idol stuff lol. First time drawing Chita btw. 🥹

More idol arc visionscrew

The Grand Galactic Idol Championships is underway. Who will you vote for?

It’s been a while since I drew idol arc stuff for visionscrew. Surprisingly, T0-B1 was pretty easy to draw (No complex design and all). Oh, and there’s more than one Karl. Just a tidbit for someone who loathes this anomaly… I’ve been meaning to draw more often after summer has ended. I really want to draw more F and Kara, my favorite sister pair hawawa!! (⌒▽⌒)

I have something planned to wrap up this silly lil arc. Stay tuned. 😈😈😈

Taking the entire galaxy by storm.

Kara Bot is all the rage rn. She isn’t even singing however. It’s all just baby gobblygoob. Yet, the galaxy is in love with this creature. But why? 🥹

Cause day and night (what what?)

I was so lucky to find this in some random anime store at the mall today.

It’s not in perfect condition but I don’t mind. (Must’ve been donated to that very store)
