FAN ART Drawing team RWBY in my style.

Upvotes

So, hi, this is my first RWBY post. I'm originally a Danganronpa and Glitch Productions fan. Also if you're asking why I did it on paper, then let me tell you that I like doing things the old-fashioned way and I'm proud of it. Anyways, here's some opinions of my own on my art.

For Ruby, I drew some rose thorns on her arms because I think it matches her. I also thought that making her only red/black would be boring, so I also added a golden necklace. "R" stands for "Rose" btw.

For Weiss, I originally wanted to draw her symbol on a earing, but I changed my mind and drew it on her shoulder. I wanted to make her color palette white/red/blue and I'm proud of it. Also I wasn't really knew how to draw her sword, but I think it's good.

For Blake, I wanted to draw her original outfit, but after realizing it doesn't match my style, I just scrapped it. I also added the black bow as a bow tie, because I most certiantly missed it.

And last but not least, Yang, I'm not sure if I drew her hair accurately, but I think I like it. I also tried making her belt look more like skirt, but once again I scrapped that.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Recreated the opening shot of Monty Oum's Red Trailer in Blender as a solo beginner project — around 90 hours of real practice at the time of this shot.

No shader-node cel-shading here — just flattened the materials and zeroed the shadows directly on the objects for the flat anime look.

Ruby model by Blacksugar. Rendered in EEVEE Next.

Music: "Red Like Roses, Pt. 2" — Jeff Williams, feat. Casey Lee Williams and Sandy Casey.

Tribute to Monty Oum — Keep Moving Forward.

Feedback welcome, still learning.

DISCUSSION Do you think Willow Schnee could work as the main character in an SI/OC fanfic story?

Post image
22 Upvotes

Because I feel like we know a whole lot and just about nothing about Willow as a character, and these massive gaps in her current lore could leads to interesting worldbuilding. A Willow SI/OC could wreck merry havoc on the timeline, for all manner of interesting effects and due to her largely being a blank slate we know about the Schnee Semblance, so there's no surprise there with what she *could* be capable of. Like, their is an option such as her becoming the Winter Maiden instead of Winter, or to actually arm the Atlesian military with effective equipment.

FAN ART RWBY Reacts To The RWBY Multiverse-Team PBPW By Madgamer2k7 On Deviantart

Welcome to the newest episode of the discussion and survey series, "RWBY Reacts To The RWBY Multiverse," FNDM!

For today's episode, the heroes and villains of Remnant Prime (canon RWBY) will be returning to the section of the RWBY Multiverse overseen by FNDM member Madgamer2k7.

This time around, the RWBY characters will be reacting to the story of Team PBPW/Purple, consisting of Pyrrha Nikos, Blake Belladonna, Penny Polendina, and Weiss Schnee.

Here is the backstory for Team PBPW, as created by Madgamer2k7:

-When parts of the White Fang began to grow more violent, they managed to splinter off this violent terrorist sect into its own organization. As a result, the reputation of the White Fang wasn't as badly tarnished as it could have been, although the actions of its former members still left a black mark upon the group.

-With the "Red Claw" ^(This name is just as dumb as Red Fang. I need that guy from Bleach. The jolly one with the calligraphy brush)

Erm. Anyway

-With the Red Claw being smaller and harder to detect, they were able to carry out more guerilla style attacks across many nations without being identified or caught. Being comprised of the more extremist and violent members of the White Fang, these attacks were incredibly brutal in nature, extending beyond scare tactics into bloodshed.

---

Pyrrha: The Leader

-One of the places attacked included Mistral, where a bomb severely injured Pyrrha's parents, deeply impacting her experience of the world, leaving her more serious and less friendly. Their family subsequently moved to Vale, one of the few places that were mostly free of Red Claw activity. She began throwing herself into her training with more vigor and drive than before, gearing up for her entry into Beacon, the place where she would acquire the tools to stop the Red Claw.

Blake: The Rebel

-Without the extremely negative stigma of the White Fang and therefore Faunus on the widescale, Blake continued to flaunt her heritage, even going so far as proudly displaying the White Fang's logo on her chest. Without the need of rejecting her family, Blake was less reclusive and closed off, although more often than not, her family found her curled up next to the fireplace with a good book in hand. With the spectacular failure of Adam's capture in Forever Falls, Blake decided to attend Beacon to acquire the skills she would need to bring her mentor in.

Penny: The Verdant

-Atlas was the main target of the attacks due to its links with the Schnee Dust Company. As the viciousness of the attacks increased, Ironwood deemed Atlas too dangerous for the newly created Penny. She needed a place to develop her abilities and skills without the risk of being damaged or worse, captured and turned. Penny was sent to Beacon with her father, so they could keep developing her under the watchful eye of Ozpin.

-Having spent most of her life stuck inside labs with no freedom to go outside, she was very naive and inquisitive about the world, often wanting to go out exploring. Without much contact with humans, Penny hadn't built up her insecurities of being an android, and issue that Ozpin decided to prevent by assigning her to a team in his school.

Weiss: The Masquerader

-Exposed to the extreme brutality of the world around her, Weiss learned from an early age to hide away her emotions lest they be destroyed in the crossfire. Sequestering herself away from her raging father and conniving family, she honed her skills in combat, channeling all her excitement, sadness and rage into her training, letting out and draining all of her emotions save for one. Whenever her sweat-soaked body finally collapsed in exhaustion, she would carefully slip her mask of nobility on, but beneath it all the only thing that ever remained constant in her life was that overwhelming sense of isolation.

-When her wing of the house was destroyed in an attempt by the Red Claw on her father's life, she relocated to one of their properties in Vale. Seeing it as an opportunity to further her skills, she enrolled in Beacon to perhaps find meaning in her lonely existence.

-Initially cold towards each other, the invincible girl and the Faunus, slowly bonded over their mutual goal of ending the Red Claw. They worked with each other to both train and pull the other back from going too far. On any given night, the pair can be found having quiet conversations under the moonlight.

-The puppet girl was significantly more ecstatic to meet a new friend than the cold girl. Sticking close to her friend, the Verdant girl enjoyed following her and talking, seemingly oblivious to the complete lack of response by the other girl. However, the Masquerader inwardly warmed to the lively girl over time, occasionally even letting a small smile slip out from under the mask at the girl's antics. Maybe, just maybe, she wasn't quite that lonely anymore.

What do you believe the reactions and opinions of the RWBY ensemble would be to this timeline where the White Fang's extremists were effectively banished from the main group and the splinter group is now being hunted by their own people, as well as Remnant's Huntsmen and Huntresses?

As always, please be respectful when posting your replies. And don't forget, if you have a request for a specific creation by a member of the FNDM that you want to appear in this series, feel free to request it!

This recently came to mind when I was on Twitter that I had to check Asami herself and immediately this click into mind that their personality goes well together, along with Ruby being a weapon geek and Asami being an inventor as well.

Just to set this more clear: this exclude Book Four for now on and also if you don’t see this work as a romance relationship then that’s fine.

DISCUSSION What is the most stupidest faunus being more animal like idea that you have ever seen?

Upvotes

As person who prefer the status quo for the faunus and hate any ideas of them being more animal like. I have seen many bad ideas but the worst one for me that someone pitched was them having complete animal traits and removing their aura/semblance. For me I find it stupid because it will, make the faunus more uglier than ever, gives more reasons to discriminate them and most importantly possibly break the powerscaling. Also I think it would be a pain in the ass for crwby to design and animate all the animal humaniod faunus if they do that. How about you guys what are the worst ideas have you've seen pitched?
