everyone so focused on the Maui comparison that they overlook the obvious superior choice

Confused? (<click)

if I had a nickel for everytime I was obsessed with a big bulky man with a machine gun who others assume to be a dumb brute but in reality being very smart and cunning, who is also in a non-canon but heavily suggested love relationship with a medical co-worker... I'd have two nickels

I still owe myself to get out a full Overwatch figure ramble but I just realized that the "Carbon Fiber" 4-pack of the Ultimates (hasbro) line isn't just the Carbon Fiber skins.

The set contains Genji, Zarya, Pharah, and D.va. Zarya's default skin was a solo box before, but Genji and Pharah's default looks are exclusively available in 2-packs with Hanzo and Mercy, respectively. D.va, depressingly, is only available in this 4-pack, meaning there's no Ultimates figure of her normal skin (though she does have the Figma if you insist on accuracy at a higher cost)

What I just realized though after 4 months of having these figures is that uh... They're not all the "Carbon Fiber" skins for these heroes.

Obviously we all know Carbon Fiber Genji, it's probably the most iconic Epic skin in the game. simple, effective, very cool gamer look.

Probably the single best recolor they could've gone with for any figure in the whole line.

Then there's Pharah, who got the less iconic but still nice Carbon Fiber skin.

This one's interesting, as this skin actually is one of the most recent designs that got an Ultimates figure. It came out in the Anniversary 2019 event, and this figure set came out in September 2019, meaning it was less than half a year from in-game to figure for this one! Part of me wonders if they made this relatively basic skin just so they could round out this 4-pack.

Okay now here's the part where I'm just stupid: the other two skins technically aren't "Carbon Fiber" skins despite being in the Carbon Fiber 4 pack.

Zarya's skin is officially titled "Midnight", which the box outright says. I'm just dumb.

It was one of her original base game two Epic skins too, so it's been around for a while.

Then there's D.va, which is what initially got me down this sudden spiral. The skin in this figure set is Midnight, another from Anniversary 2019 just like the Pharah skin.

But the thing is... D.va also has a skin called Carbon Fiber.

It's a pretty popular one too, been in the game since 1's launch, and it looks strikingly different from the Midnight skin, so uh. Yeah I'm just dumb I think.

While on this subject, I think I should go over the rest of this Carbon Fiber and Midnight saga, since there's a lot of skins with that name.

Orisa's Carbon Fiber is actually a Legendary skin, with its striking feature being the apparently floating limbs. It's one of her initial defaults, and its counterpart is "Protector" (the one with a genji face in the torso).

Zenyatta's funky-faced Carbon Fiber comes from a unique place in Overwatch content history: the January 2018 Blizzard World content drop, which added a bunch of new cosmetics into the base year-round loot pool in addition to the new map. As such, Zen appears to have 3 "default" Epic skins.

Brigitte's is another Epic skin of her default two. This one has some extra details though (as was the case with most post-launch heroes), namely with some extra cybernetic-looking details on her face.

Here's Doomfist's Carbon Fiber, also from Anniversary 2019. Oddly enough, his seems to have some extra paint details. He never had an Ultimates figure, so maybe my theory about the simpler recolors being made explicitly for the figures is onto something?

Echo's is one of her two default Epics she's had since her release. Funny enough, this is the one that actually looks the most like actual Carbon Fiber.

And then finally is Sigma's Carbon Fiber skin, which was one of the weekly challenge rewards from Anniversary 2020. I'd say it reminds me of bees if he didn't just get a full-on beekeeper skin.

Oh, and Reaper technically also has a Rare skin called "Midnight", but it's one of the basic recolors and very clearly not meant to be part of the same theme as the Zarya and D.va skins.

...

Yeah this is how quickly I go on a spiral over fancy palette swaps in a video game and its adjacent merch.

Overwatch OC on your dash in the year of our lord 2023?? more likely than you’d think!

Venetic is Romanian for “alien“.

It’s actually Strigoi -the apex OC- “repurposed”. Like, their normal version (last name reveal!), a person they were before cybernetic rebuild.. that eventually still gets posessed by some kind of alien parasite. They are underground technician with a secret passion for music (guess their best friend, yep, that’s right).

and the redhead version was a challenge for OC palette swap (by chevap_chacha)

#Venetic #overwatch oc #well. they are not a hero per se but it still counts #they are a bit uptight and closeted and have too much common sense #original

I did that Overwatch palette meme where you take your five most played characters and use their colors to make a picture of your main!

Well, here I am with my number one beefy bear babe! Special thanks to @banshee-bear for telling me about this meme in the first place!

I stumbled upon the Overwatch palette challenge and thought I’d give it a shot. The first artwork makes use of all the 5 colors while the second one makes use of a white background instead of Ana’s yellowish-gray color.

Hopefully I didn’t mess up Pharah as much as I did last time I tried to draw her.

So a while back I did the Overwatch palette challenge, and I wanted to give it another go because my mains have changed quite a lot, and palettes are good practice anyway.
