EDIT 2: Quite a split on the color choice! Here's something I thought I'd try after reading the reasons why you guys preferred each hue. I quite like it! I also made all of the text a little bit more bold so that it's hopefully easier to read now.

EDIT: I just caught the double "least" and will be fixing it soon.

I present to you, the new and improved DU drow character sheet! I've been meaning to replace that ANCIENT art that I have on my tumblr's pinned post for ages now 😂

The different versions of this character have become so prevalent in my art that it only felt right to include them in the updated sheet (well, you guys haven't seen much of the last one yet, but you will soon 😉)

DU drow's original sheet art had that blue color scheme, kind of in reference to the way his skin reflects a similar color. However, I feel like that burnt yellow tone in the second option has sort of become "his" shade, so I'm tempted to change it! Let me know if you have an opinion about it.

Fun fact - I almost kept a bunch of his stats uneven like they originally were just to enrage the DnD nerds - then I remembered I am now also a DnD nerd 😔 that said, if you ever get bored the comment section on this thing should provide you with endless entertainment.

The yellow is easier on the eyes for me!

Lyle

Yellow for sure

Wicked Viking Art

I like the blue; it contrasts the colors, but not his heart 💙

Mars

the blue is gorgeous!

Aishaduh

The yellow is definitely more “him”

Rask

This is a really hard choice. THe yellow is more harmonious but the blue has more contrast and therefore feels easier to notice and read for me.

Coolest Ninja

Blue was easier for me to read, yellow blended in more with things

Alexis Inculta

Hmmm... I'm leaning towards the yellow.

Blinded by Delight

I’m fond of the blue but they both look excellent 🖤

Blue Meringue

I think it depends on what you want the stats to do. The yellow blends in more and makes them kind of just extra visual spice, but they also get lost in the bg. The blue makes them noticeable and matches up with the overall palette better, but draws attention from the art a little bit.

Kitsune Ana

Both are very pretty, but i think the yellow blends in a little too well with his headshots? It is him. But maybe in this case too him, so the contrasting blue is easier to read

AmanitaArtem

I think the blue brings the text out more, whereas the yellow puts the pictures in the foreground

Kitsune Ana

Also omg 8 int? We stan a himbo

kabbalutin

the yellow perhaps has some higher contrast and is indeed more his color overall but for that reason it also kinda feels washed out.. i keep myself being drawn to the blue version.. idk but for me its a nice pop of color that ties the color of the crown and sky in the middle pretty neatly together - overall both look really good tho!

migraña

Its so good! I like yellow better

Milo

Yellow!

ajax_0404

yellow fs!! his yellow dialogue is iconic and characteristic; it’s HIS color

bagelbarton

Ooo I like both but it REALLY like the yellow :)

OogBoog

Blue. Heck yee

Snow Dove

Yellow text with blue background? The blue outline and colors pop, but the yellow is his normal dialog color.

Finkint

Ooh both look great in their own ways. The blue definitely pops more and catches attention (also brings out the slight blue in the background of the middle panel and in the shadows), but the yellow feels more harmonious with everything and suits him more I think. I stan yellow! Edit: really love the edit2 one with both blue and yellow!!! The decorative frame is really pretty as well

BARBATUS

I VOTE YELLOW

Tanith

Yellow fr

BARBATUS

AH heads up in the second line of the Redemptive description the a in "at" is a bit cut off!

Desi

Oh, I can't wait to see what you have planned for disgraced DU Drow and I'm guessing with Ascended Astarion? It's going to hurt so good!

viaa ✭

Blue! It goes so well with his skin AND it’s a lot easier to read.

Julia Lichty

The blue is a lot easier to read. It's mostly an issue for the small, descriptive text under "Embracing", "Redemptive", and "Disgraced" - the rest is large and bold enough that either color scheme works equally well.

E

I think the yellow colour looks even better!

ObsessedGames505

I like yellow a lot but WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THE LAST DU DROW

Ren H.

Blue!

ObsessedGames505

Like “At least you still have love”??? What do you MEAN how DARE you torture me like this

Rez

Blueeeeee

ArchangelBlasphemy

“At least you still have love” is so spine-chillingly sweet AND ominous. Like a poison candy. Perfect

Wiggleman

Blue: It fits all forms.

blep

Blue to match the center panel.

vintagerawr

The blue stands out more and is more visible, but I feel like the yellow is more cohesive with the portraits colors.

Bash Sídhe

i like the first version

RavenNoodle

Yellow blends really well and fit with the overall "warm" color for each illustrations

teth

I like the combination of both colors sooo much more.

Endess Nova

Ok changed my mind with edit #2, I like the one with the blue in the middle now lol

Shanal

I like the combo! You also don’t need the last “at” in your middle dialogue. It’s okay if you leave the “.” after “best”.

QueenOfTriforce

Blue stands out more for me cause the colors on the pieces are already kinda yellowy? But that depends if you wanna make it look like it all blends together, then yellows would be the option. And I like the little twirls in the first one

Fern with Googley Eyes

The blue border on redemption makes me feel like I am making a character selection choice, so I like it a lot.

Jex G.

Combo!

CannedMuffins

I’m assuming the last one is after letting Astarion ascend and DU is under his boot basically 👀?

BARBATUS

OOOO BLUE IN THE MIDDLE IS GREAT

Darrah

He’s so handsome and I like the yellow the best 💛

turtleurtle

Love the yellow!! I agree it's his color. Plus, the blue is hard to read.

Sylphy

i will always vote team yellow as its my fave too

lilhumanoid

Ooooo I like both colors so I love the new "combo" one! This is awesome

blep

Good idea on highlighting Redemptive, that works nicely.

Tian

I like the yellow

Bobabud

The yellow is more suiting

Grey

I think the first one is great! And I’m still SO obsessed with these looks on him!

Pondemonium

Yellow fits the character but blue is more striking in contrast

sabrina

Delete me… you meant the borders. I was thinking color shift. Also love 💕

DarlingAnon

I love the yellow!!! And the extra details in the first one are really pretty

tenderroni

don’t hurt disgraced drow! the pup has been through enough!!

Crista ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

I love the first with both blue & yellow, but with blue being the “selected” option. Catches the eye without being visually disruptive!

Azurami

I think the yellow makes all 3 of them stand out more ❤️

Lu

Yellow!

Wheeling Stars

Both. All. I love him. I just want more of him 🫣

Lisa-and-Shadow

I LOVE the blue in the center like it's the highlighted option on your "screen". That has a really nice break up between the two other options. 🤌

Deacon

I think the first with both colours and blue being the selected is more eye catching! But they're all good, and he looks great!

Prox

LOVE the blue in the center!

faerunechoes

first one is great, overall I prefer yellow cause it reflects Drow's eyes

A Cat

I'm scrabbling at the bars of my enclosure for more disgraced DU drow angst

Danielle

I can't see the different tone showing up. That disgraced drow looks so cool. Low the crown like a mockery

GalCaw_35

I can't even begin to tell you how much I LOVE the way your art style has developed since you began creating for your beautiful, murderous bastard of a drow ❤️❤️

bunny

the yellow matches his hair color, so it looks less out of place, while also being easier to read imo

LuinenBluewater

The first one with the blue in the center and the yellow on the sides is top legibility to me and tickles my inner graphic designer in the right way. It's because it explains a lot with a single glance and it's also beautiful to look at! 🤌🏻

rits

I like version 1, with both blue and yellow. The yellow stat borders make the stats seem a permanent fixture, and the blue on the center drow feels as though you're in character creation mode and are currently looking at redeemed durge. And if i may ask, what does the "disgraced" scenario imply?

doodlebop mcgee

Version 1 is the most striking to me! This is awesome!!!

AP

OOOO this is exciting!! I like the full yellow the most

Kitty

oh I like the first one. The frame on Canon Drow is a nice way to point out that he's what actually happened

Rask

Love the combined result! Nailed it

MEANBOSS

He doesn't need that brain for much 😂

MEANBOSS

Ah english. 10 years of speaking it and it still elludes me. Thank you!

Shanal

You do great! It’s my only language and I still fuck it up 😅

MEANBOSS

HAHAHA, it happens 😂 I will delete the previous messages since you asked.

MEANBOSS

Don't worry, he will be well taken care of 😇😇😇

Kitsune Ana

The combined version slapps!

MEANBOSS

It's only in reference to the text!

MEANBOSS

I have gotten basically a 50/50 split on which one is easier to read which is wild

MEANBOSS

Thank you for the feedback, I'm definitely sticking to the combo version. You guys will find out in more detail once I start working on the "spawn" comic! But in short, it's the "lost-to-Orin" DU drow & Ascended Astarion AU.

MidnightFinch

I love the full yellow one! I feel like it's more his tone :)

Daisy

Has anyone made a mod for Du Drow? I know the facial scars are a preset but I want the body ones too so bad.

Soups and Salads

I like the blue and yellow one, personally. I think it works well with the little descriptions.

ray

prefer the combined version (looks very pleasing lol, and it highlights redemption durge, thus taking the focus first) and the yellow version too :) also the blue in the combined version fits more as being just the one than the entirely blue version imo, the single blue fitting the background of the middle picture, while the others fit the yellow colour scheme more.

migraña

Ooooh I really like the combined one

Livin

The combo version is my favorite, second is all blue.

Sar Price

I so want to see more of disgraced Drow. Looks SO GOOD.

Squishy Love Muppet

I like the yellow because it's the same as his speech bubble. 🤷‍♀️ But honestly, I had to look twice then read what the difference was.

Xenard

The combo one is great!

Taro

The combo is so good. The yellow on the two "extremes" lean into the murky, uneasy feeling of the outcomes, while the blue in the middle gives a more hopeful, "positive" vibe (not like happy go lucky sunshine positive, but still a bit brighter). Yellow feels more deadend, while the blue feels like there could be a future... Hopeful 😉

Duzemine

I love the blue and yellow, in terms of colour symbolism blue often represents hope and freedom, that would fit really well with Drows redemption arc! Then yellow can also symbolise egotism and danger (think warning signs ⚠️). I think the contrast also works really well!

wwx29

I love the combo one, I think it lends itself really well to the different outcomes he can have!!! I agree with everyone saying the blue contrasted against the yellow gives a more hopeful feel for redemptive versus his disgraced and his embracing outcomes

Shandora

Can I just say how stunning it is that you can see the crazy in the embrace eyes, the hopeful shine in the redemptive eyes and the broken in the disgraced eyes? Like... Wow. The level of SKILL!!!
