Description Whew. Finally finished it!

Over the course of several months, I've been uploading pics to my scrapbook as I completed them, and here is the end result!

The challenge of this meme, whose creator and blank template seem to have sadly disappeared, was to draw a character as they might appear in each of the main worlds of the Kingdom Hearts games. I chose my OC Kathalia and tried to see what I could come up with.

1. Normal - Kathalia in her normal, everyday form, a paladin-turned highwayman in a high fantasy world that I haven't found a satisfying name to yet.
2. Monstro - Officially, this should be Timeless River, the home of the earliest Disney animations. I couldn't think of any designs for her in the retro style of the early days of animation, so I decided to substitute another Kingdom Hearts level, Monstro (and Pinocchio by proxy) I doubt Kathalia would do very well on Pleasure Island, which she escaped before ending up in Monstro, albeit with side-effects...
3. Coliseum - I love Greek myths, but hate Disney's Hercules. Decided to represent Kathalia as Eris and her golden apple.
4. Agrabah - Transported to the Sultanate of Agrabah, Kathalia encounters a snag pretty quickly when she finds herself transformed into a genie! I like how this one came out.
5. Atlantica - Mermaids are a lot of fun to draw, despite my undying hatred of this level.
6. Halloween Town - Despite the fact that she is normally not a magic user, Kathalia gets to be a witch when she arrives in this spooky realm.
7. Neverland - Even as a fairy, Kathalia tends to side with piracy.
8. Pride Lands - To be perfectly honest, I don't even remember this being a level. Kathalia probably will though, as she finds herself becoming a lioness!
9. Port Royal - I already had a pirate inspired outfit in mind when I began developing my character, and decided that to just draw her normal outfit would be lazy, so I tried to change it up a bit. I like the design, just not the execution on this one.
10. Space Paranoids (AKA the Grid) - This is probably my favourite out of all of these pictures. I took heavily from TRON: Legacy's costume designs instead of the 1980s version that is seen in the game. i love the aesthetics of that movie and really like how this one came out.
11. 100 Acre Woods - It was very odd trying to get Kathalia, whom I usually write or draw as very violent and bitter, to fit into something as good-hearted as the 100 Acre Wood. I was pretty pleased with the result and how it made me examine and try to develop a different side of the character
12. Land of Dragons - I love how this one came out. I chose to develop the outfit based on designs from Soul Calibur and Dynasty Warriors, rather than from the film (my favourite animated Disney film). Very pleased with the result.
13. Beast's Castle - When thinking about what to do for this picture, I decided that, rather than a staff member of the castle, Kathalia would be more likely to be found near Gaston's angry mob. Gaston is a jerk, but he's fun to watch and my favourite part of that film. Poor guy doesn't even get to show up in the game, so here's to him!
14. Deep Jungle -
15. Wonderland - Cheshire Cat inspired design.

That about sums up this meme! Let me know what you think and give it a try!

Hah, this reminded me of a meme showing the characters of Disnye's Hercules together with the caption saying "and all the other gods lived happily ever after" then the next frame shows Kratos standing at the base of mount Olympus, glaring up.

I would pay to see that sequel

You're welcome. Ah, when you continue my request? You ignored all the other messages that I sent you about it.

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten your request. I still have one page left on it. I just haven't really had the drive for it and would rather make sure that the ending gets the effort it deserves, rather than a rushed. I will probably get the next page up sometime soon. Sorry for the wait!

Very well. But I don't think that a page is sufficient to conclude the story. You going too fast. In this page [link] Cetus was pardoned for the reasons you specified. And looks Andromeda (being able to recognize she, and being surprised and upset by the her transformation), which is sad about what happened to her.
On the next page Cetus and Andromeda just discuss what happened to her.
