Crash OC- Carmine
Yeah, I marked this as mature content because I was worried about the first image LOL! It doesn't really show much at all, but he isn't wearing anything and I am NOT taking any chances, so I marked it anyways.
Anyhow, Carmine is a Crash Bandicoot OC of mine. He's a bio-engineered Gasmoxian made by Emperor Velo's subjects to cause as much carnage as possible, and easily towers over any of the Gasmoxians seen in the games. The cuffs on his wrists and ankles don't come off, and since he escaped his lab inprisonment, a mechanism activated that will paralyze him if he gets within a 5 meter radius of anything Velonian (of Velo's world).
Despite his frightening appearance and origins, he's actually quite a friendly guy! Naive and curious due to spending the first 20 years of his life inside a test tube, Carmine wants to explore all of Gasmoxia, and one day... maybe the universe! But for now he's taking things slow and learning to appreciate the simple things in life. He hopes to get into kart racing one day, but the karts are always just too small for him!
Images are from late 2020-early 2021, drawn using sharpies (1&2), pencil (3), and CSP (4&5).
Crash Bandicoot, Nitros Oxide, and Zem belong to Activision, Toys For Bob, Beenox, and King.
Carmine emerging from his test chamber after 20 long years. He is able to shake off the tubes attached to his body with little effort.
refined Carmine design from later on, but his colors aren't right. This is merely an issue with the scanner app I used.
quick sketches of him from when I was still figuring out his new design. This design refinement was made right after the concept art for Crash 4's gasmoxians was posted.
Up to date design with accurate colors. Hugging Oxide for size comparison (and definitely not because Oxide is my favorite character).
The last image, but with Zem instead of Oxide. I kind of like this one more because Zem fits more comfortably in Carmine's arms...
