Agree. Sick, awesome drawings but that dress is 1990s. 1890s had corsets that came up to the bottom of the shoulder blade and would have a minimum of an upper arm flounce as a sleeve. 1930s fashions were cut on the bias so had a slinkier fit and required straps.

15:36 I could even see Zane becoming MORE dedicated to his original goal--but with a twist. Zane realizes he's been targeting the wrong thing. Instead of weapons, he should be targeting the greedy corporations who make them. 'Weapons will never cease to be made so long as there are people still willing to use them.' So, Zane starts assassinating the CEOs of each rival company and anyone who takes their place, until they're too scared and disorganized to re-group, and he can buy the company and run it the way HE wants to. And with each company he acquires, he turns their weapons against his next target. His competitors realize his plan and team up to fight back, encouraging an arms race between them and Zane. But it's too little, too late, and once Zane kills all the company heads and owns them all, he's free. Free to dismantle all every weapon they or he has ever made and used. And once he does, he is vulnerable to revenge from the co-workers and relatives of those he killed. And with his mission complete and no weapons to protect him from their furious hands, Zane falls.

I agree 😅

I LOOVE how you just ad-libbed the whole story of Jessie, and when you draw her eyes and face (brilliantly, I might add) we already feel all that drama inside her! You got mad skill, dude. In storytelling too.

12:56 I love/hate how Jessi is looking into her mirror, but it also looks like the mirror version of her is looking at whoever just walked in on her 😂

I love how this video highlights the importance of having a rich story behind your characters, especially villains. And turning heroes into villains adds a depth to the villain that a lot of people wouldn't otherwise think about. Villains and heroes are just people! And people have both good and bad in them. It's their choices that earn them their titles.

like seeing more people actually giving their OCs stories, seen a lot of OCs that are pretty flat story wise, tends to detract from the character, and it really shows when people consider the story in the design, adds depth and makes ppl sonsider the details, 10/10 woop woop

The way you come up with the backstories for these characters so easily and add things to the composition that align with the character's personality in such creative ways amazes me EVERY TIME! I don't know how you do it man, how do you get so creative with these? I loved both character's stories that you did and I really wish I can get to that level of creativity someday.

Amazed at how quickly you can look at these OCs and bang out an amazing storyline. You should honestly write a webtoon

Sam showing off his armour rendering skills that he is being practicing lately. We need more of this!

I love when Sam turns friendly looking OCs into villains

Not gonna lie, it really inspires me to draw every time I watch Sam's videos.

I do lowkey wanna write a novel about the first character now, the story you crafted was so. good.

I love Zane, he looks amazing. I just wish you'd kept the first version of his nose, it had so much character.

Both of them look so cool in their own way. And i never knew how someone draws in this style like explained in a way. Because you get to see step by step how he does it. I like this drawing style a lot. But also, i think i connect more woth the deaddly victorian british style or this particular old fashion classy style. Feels so classy yet can hold so many dangerous secrets. I like the steam punk a lot too, i mean he looks amazing, but her style has my heart.

this is incredible dude your art is insane. you're so good at colors, and I hope I can learn coloring well

I'm loving the second OC villain redesign. It feels like that OC got inspiration from Doomfist in Overwatch as part of his revenge arc lol

Okay but Sam out here making the best stories for these characters

I loved the backstory for villain Jessi fr! Both drawings were wonderful

sam out here creating characters that i'd fall in love with if they were real

in the first villain depiction, i love the idea of a reflection being different/revealing a hidden side of the character but the lighting being different that the subject defies physics in a way i cannot overlook. was this an intentional choice?

Zane kinda reminds me of Drago from httyd 2 with the story Sam gave him

you are so good at this. like not just the drawing which is AMAZING, but the story telling ability you have to twist the story is so incredible!

Let's face it.. Villains are better than the MC

When your own art scares you.. you’re doing a good job… : D

Woow! They're both nice drawings and fun stories, but the second one is straight flames. I'm a sucker for mechanical elements, a big frickin weapon arm is always going to be insanely cool and fun to look at and the little green accents to suggest his eyes are maybe biomechanical as well with the face plates.. and the hair and accessories.. it all comes together and looks so so good! awesome video as always Sam, always nice to see you just sit down and do a painting :D

Your process has me in awe the whole way

As I watch Sam more and more, I finally start to see improvement in my artwork, I always struggled to make OCs cause I relied heavily on references and struggled to make a good backstory, but Sam could just come up with it on the spot. These were stellar artworks, 2 of them absolutely amazing. Good job Sam!!

I’m just gonna say it now, any oc born in the Victorian era is already a villain.

there's something so relaxing about Sam and these videos, maybe it's his calm voice. if he ever decides to switch to asmr, i'm here for it

Bro casually dropping banger lore

Just listening to Sam narrating the storyline and watching him draw absolute masterpieces is a therapy

These character designs are just 🤌🤌🤌

Your backstories for these characters are always so complex and interesting! As someone who writes and does art, the backstories for some characters can really be so dull and monotone and I'm always so happy to hear the ones you come up with! Your ideas allow for so much story and character development, and the art is just as high quality and unique!!

Sam is literally my idol, he's funny, draws good, and makes good villains

i love the second characters design sm, it has so much great detail, i love it. my most favorite

THAT GAUNTLET ARM PROSTHETIC THINGAMABOB IS GORGEOUS

The second villain makes me think of arcane and I have no idea why

sam this was amazing i only watched the first character for now but like wow the story is amazing like i don't understand how you came up with that so easily and the art wow she looks amazing the blood looks amazing everything is just amazing just wow

I'm absolutely enjoying this style of video, would love it to continue as a series even! I love the concept of you taking on OC's and letting them have the light (or darkness in this case hehe) And not to mention the STORY TELLING YOU COME UP WITH??? Steller stuff.

I love how Sam just casually made up the best novel while drawing the first oc

Especially right now i keep watching your videos like 24/7 because I need to distract myself from my last relationship. Thank you for that, without your videos I wouldn’t stop to think about everything over and over again !
