Description
“I thought Id make a Chrysalis one just for fun, but make it a little more monstrous. However, for some reason, I felt compelled to make it a humanoid version (an updated version of this), as opposed to a bugpony.
I decided to pull the design a little bit away from the insectoid/alien look, and a bit more towards some type of fae. I envision her hair having a texture like the membrane of a leaf (even though Im not entirely sure how that would work). I made the horn more like that of a markhor goat, which I think is what the stylization in her canon design is actually meant to imply. And yes - Im still sticking with the bifurcated mouth, because its delightfully horrifying.”

Truth be told, I hadn’t thought of Yzma till Hittite posted that pic and with The Emperor’s New Groove being one of my favorite films I kinda got caught up in that. I think it’s just because there’s some semblance in that they’re both thin, pointy, big-eyed designs and also WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED IT ENTIRELY?! HOW COULD YOU NOT- DROP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND GO WATCH IT NAO!!!
I kid of course, but I do regard it as one of the best I’ve seen, along the Iron Giant and the Road to Eldorado, and I highly recommend it.
Eh, it’s okay. I guess I just didn’t notice because I haven’t even seen the movie in it’s entirety. :P
My apologies, I hadn’t intended to cause you any undue irritation.
Once your art has been released to the masses, you have no control over their interpretation of it. It’s frustrating, but unavoidable.
I wasn’t trying to make fun of it, it’s just interesting to note how similar it turned out.
I literally never once thought of Yzma while drawing it, so the fact that people think it looks like her is kind of irritating… 9_9;
Only if he understands diner slang.
Might work. He’s got the physique and the enthusiasm, at least.
“Pull the lever, Iron Will. WRONG LEVEEEeee eeerrrrrr…”
You mean like…
XD
All she needs a Kronk now.
Ah, how shall I do it? Oh, I know. I’ll turn Shining Armor into a flea, a harmless, little flea, and then I’ll put that flea in a box, and then I’ll put that box inside of another box, and then I’ll mail that box to myself, and when it arrives…
Ahahaha!
…I’ll smash it with a hammer! It’s brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, I tell you! Genius, I say!
Or, to save on postage, I’ll just brainwash him with this.
@The Hittite
I thought the exact same thing, as soon as I saw the pic, lol
Catchy. They cut a lot of songs from that film, I’ve heard.
Oh gods, now I’m imagining Chrissy acting like Yzma.
On the bright side, you can have her sing the greatest villain song that never was.
