Since it’s been a while, I decided to update ALL my character reference sheets! 💜
(And finally pin my game to my profile lol. Link in replies!)
📌 Read the infographic for my OC usage rules, then check the replies for all updated main + future reference sheets!
If you use my characters, please tag me and/or use:
🎨 Traditional: #Artd3v
🤖 AI: #Artd3vAI
Quick FAQ:
1️⃣ If I’ve made an outfit that isn’t linked below, send me the reference sheet/tweet and I’ll add it!
2️⃣ NSFW is allowed, but I may not interact with it. And if you’re posting publicly… please don’t be weird about it 😭
3️⃣ Cameos don’t count as commercial use! I’d just appreciate a heads-up if one of my characters is appearing in your project.
4️⃣ If you’re ever unsure about something, just ask me!
Have fun with them! ✨👻

NEW REFERENCE SHEETS AND RULES!!! (IMPORTANT) 👏👻👏
MY NEW REFS I CLEANED AND IMPROVED! You can use them and any game assets as reference as long as you follow the rules below!
(Yes this is a repost. I didn’t like the ones and fixed them lol)
1. As long as it ain’t illegal, claiming they’re your own, or involving minors, idc. I may not repost or respond depending on content
2. I would appreciate using #Artd3V and #Artd3vAI respectively when posting about my characters and games. Not necessary, just makes it easier for me to keep track of all the great stuff people make
3. Please DO NOT feed my vtuber model or drawn art assets of my games into AI. I do not have expressed permission of those artists and I don’t wish to disrespect the hard work put into my assets, or get in trouble.
Arkd3v-Studios does not claim responsibility for those who violate the above rules.
Have fun!

Had a very enlightening conversation @Rogey_Bear. I had to immortalize a quote and share it with everyone here. Learn from the words of the wise barbarian.
Starscream: “L-Lord Megatron! X isn’t promoting Arkd3v’s posts anymore!”
Megatron: “Starscream, you sniveling fool! The analytics show that nearly every metric is in the green.”
Starscream: “…They’d be even greener if I were leader.”
Megatron: “WHAT WAS THAT?!”
Starscream: “NOTHING, LORD MEGATRON!”

📐 LOCKED COMIC LAYOUT
Canvas: 4:5 portrait, preferably 1600×2000.
Exactly six panels, arranged:
┌────────────┬────────────┐
│ PANEL 1 │ PANEL 2 │ 22%
├────────────┼────────────┤

🎬 LOCKED SIX-PANEL SCRIPT
PANEL 1 — DISCOVERY
Medium close-up. Character A mischievously admires an adorable voodoo doll resembling Character B.
A: “Aww, tiny you!”
PANEL 2 — PEACEFUL IGNORANCE
Medium shot. Character B is somewhere else, peacefully reading, eating, relaxing, or minding their own business.
No dialogue.
PANEL 3 — ACTIVATION
Close-up. Character A manipulates the doll to perform the selected action. The doll’s movement must clearly explain the resulting physical gag.
A: “Hehehe…”
SFX: Action-specific.
PANEL 4 — SHOCK
Extreme close-up of Character B’s eyes widening dramatically in anime-style horror and disbelief.
Text: “?!!”
Use exaggerated shock lines and comedic impact effects.
PANEL 5 — COMEDIC CATASTROPHE
LARGEST PANEL. Full-body shot of Character B uncontrollably performing the chosen action.
Maximum exaggerated anime slapstick: ridiculous posing, bulging shocked eyes, enormous screaming mouth, frantic sweat drops, dynamic speed lines, chaotic motion, and hilarious panic.
B: “WHY IS MY BODY MOVING ON ITS OWN?!”
SFX: Large, action-specific effects.
Keep the character’s anatomy readable and the selected action unmistakable.
PANEL 6 — PUNCHLINE
Small final panel. Character A appears smugly amused in the corner, still holding the doll.
A: “This is fun.”
🎨 ART & ANATOMY LOCK
* Use both references as absolute authorities for identity, physique, proportions, outfit, colors, species traits, accessories, and art style.
* The doll must faithfully resemble Character B.
* Clean, polished anime art with expressive Fairy Tail-inspired slapstick energy, elastic comedic expressions, and dramatic visual timing.
* Preserve correct anatomy, limb counts, finger counts, mechanical construction, and appendages.
* No extra limbs, distorted identities, inconsistent outfits, or mismatched doll movements.
* Maintain the exact six-panel layout and dialogue every time.
* Only the referenced characters, selected action, Panel 2 activity, and action-specific SFX may vary.
* No extra dialogue, captions, panels, or unrelated elements.
* Keep all comedy harmless, cartoonish, and non-graphic.
FINAL DIRECTIVE: Generate ONE complete, polished 4:5 anime comedy comic with the exact six-panel layout, consistent character designs, exaggerated physical comedy, and a spectacular Panel 5 payoff.

This one is a double prompt 💜💜
One version for Sunset, one version for Moonlit 💜💜
Not entirely sure if this is prompt worthy, I’ll let you all decide that 😅💜
Thank you to @LoveSerasAI @EllieiaVT @HighLLordDalth for being my testers 💜💜
Prompt in comments below 👇🏻💜 I’ll put the moonlit version in a second post 💜💜
Quick RantD3v:
I spent over a year pouring my heart into LaurEli, and honestly, the launch hasn't gone how I'd hoped.
I know it's only been a few days, but it's hard not to question myself and my abilities as a developer.
I'm proud I finished it. I'm happy those who did play it really enjoyed it (no negative reviews so far). Just wish it had a stronger start. 💜
Now I'm learning that part of success isn't just getting traffic, it's having your store page setup in a way that actually gets people to click and buy.
Not exactly fun IMO.
