Overhauling an Old Story! | Concept Corner: HEARTLESS #1

It’s been a hot minute, but it’s finally speedpaint time again!
This week I’m delving into my old notebooks and exploring one of my all-time favorite story ideas in a new segment that I’m tentatively calling; “Concept Corner”!
I’ve been wanting to make a series like this for ~a g e s~ where I could really go all-in and tell y’all a lil’ bit about the myriad of characters I made as a kid, and give them a fresh coat of paint in the process – so I really hope you enjoy this installment!
°˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

Do y’all have a fave character out of this rag-tag bag of protags? Please go ahead and lemme know what you think about these guys (and this new video format!) down in the comments!
