TNE: In the Name of Love || LotBD MAP

Instructions

I made a TNE! Now I have to work on my part! But first, I'm going to go through all the characters and why i did or didn't include them. Going in order of the Refs inside the OG project Akela: The main character goes front and center, of course. She was meant to look determined but honestly just looks bored. Meerkat: One of the main gang, and definitely had to be included. I chose the scene after Asher dies because I wasn't able to include him directly, so this way I kind of could in spirit. (Even if there wasn't enough room for his actual spirit lol) Indy: She's part of the main gang, is pretty important, and does get possessed by one of the antagonists. Nautilus: Part of main group, the main characters love interest, what kind of thumbnail would this be without him? Lapis: the character to bring Akela to the others. I see him as kinda the sensi character, because the sensi always dies. Ekala: of course the first and main antagonist has to be there, as big as she can be, given she's on the diamond. Algean: I would've loved to include him, but there were not enough spots. The wolves he nearly took the place of would probably be Atla or Briar, maybe even Lapis because he dies so early. But in the end, I decided this was for the best. Atla: she may not show up much, but is a pretty important character. Delivering 2 prophecies if I remember correctly. Also, shes my character, it'd be a crime if I didn't include her. Briar: I considered not including them but... given their relationships to major players, I figured they were pretty important. The Keeper: Heiko had to be included. For both sides, there is a dragon/dragon-like character, and a wolf. The Keeper is the wolf on the Diamond side, and is thus placed on the blue side, right below Azaeroth. Violet: SHES SUCH A BEAN I wanted to include her, but with suck limited space and such a small role, I had to make sacrifices. If I had more room, I would've put her there. Aspen: Once again, with such limited room, he just wasn't around enough to justify putting him instead of other characters. Willow: as with a lot of characters, just didn't play a big enough role to triumph over others. Asher: He's pretty up there, and probably should've been included. If the diamond was bigger, I would've slotted him next to Meerkat. I tried to put him there in spirit by having Meerkat be grieving over him tho. Quicksand: Much like others, just didn't play a big enough role to triumph. Spirit: same as above Primrose: BEAN, but, same as above. Water and Fire: These two seem pretty important and powerful, even if they didn't do a ton. these two are probably the closest to being replaced, but I really like the two of them on opposite sides, even of the colors don't match the sides. Stella: It's becoming a trend, but just didn't play a big enough role to triumph over others. Snow: same as above Cruella: same as above Creampuff: same as above Cloud: same as above Karro: as the wolf doing the bidding for The Serpent, I felt he would be the opposite of Heiko. As for why I chose his Isoem form rather than physical, I wanted to draw the crown. Also that's how he spends the majority of the comic, but mostly the crown. Also not having to shade is a bonus! Aurora: Only shows up at the end, and thus didn't play a big enough role to triumph over others. Borealis: same as above Ash: didn't play a big enough role to triumph over others. Dragon statue: I have the dragon, I don't need the statue. The Serpent and Azaeroth: Opposing figures, for obvious reasons. I feel a little bad Nautilus got his head partially covered T-T And thats it! I can't get over ow Meerkat looks tho, I kinda want to redo him TwT Also I think some of the shading is off but I have spent too long on this already, GOODBYE
