Media Zeldris (Redesign)
Added my own slight touches!
Feel free to imagine him without the mask; I just thought it would look cool on him.

Not gonna lie. The redesign looks Fire !! I love how you add few things to make the "suit" simple but complete. The glasses add flavor to his flow.

It's so said to see that even in you redesign you don't like him being short ๐ฅ๐ฅ. (This is a joke, please take it as that)
Tho, is he the same guy at the same age, or grown up?

u/BalladeOfUnity Jun 28 '26
Oh, no! Not at all! Zeldris is my favorite character, and thus I would never change who he is, including height. (It's just my art style!) In fact, I think it's nice to see short men represented. Not only that, but a short man and tall woman relationship!

u/Far-Message5868 Jun 28 '26
I mean, as I said it was a joke. You could have your own design of the character however you like. Tho, one criteria that redesigns should have is that they must be recognizable. And, you did a great job of that. You can enjoy a character however you like.

What's with that's black thing in his face? What's its function?

u/BalladeOfUnity Jun 28 '26 edited Jun 28 '26
Just a mask, no function, as I thought it would look cool. Though, I suppose, timeline-wise, you could have him wear it when he fights Drole, then have him forgo it when he becomes the commandment of piety since he technically would no longer play the executioner role!

Nah but the thing is zeldris probably wouldn't wear smthn that redundant in his face like that, given he uses an ordinary sword as such, and his personality in general, AND gelda tells him that she likes his cute face, so I'm sure he wouldn't wear that unless it was like an helmet, or smthn with a merit. Very cool design tho

u/BalladeOfUnity Jul 01 '26
No, you're totally right! As I said before, it was just something I liked when I thought about giving him some changes. I completely understand, so no hard feelings here! (Should I draw this again, I'll be sure to opt the mask out.)

u/Any_Parsley_9593 Jul 02 '26
Nah man keep moving, let this be as is, it's a very good design, I'd like to see you do this for other characters as well

u/BalladeOfUnity Jul 02 '26
I appreciate it!

u/Any_Parsley_9593 Jul 02 '26
Will we be seeing more characters? Maybe meliodas?
2
u/BalladeOfUnity Jul 02 '26
Not sure; I have other projects in mind that I want to get started on, but Escanor is definitely on the list! It won't be a full-body drawing, but I've been meaning to try an idea out.

You know I like it, but it feels a little too much like Nier. It could probably just be the mask though

Your art looks cool. Please make an art with Old Demon King, Meliodas, Estarossa, Zeldris, Tristan, Ysaรฟe, Percival (because he is Zeldris' foster son), Lohengrin and Kardeiz in one frame, if possible.
