Nature Healer in Gemino Onesie! (Holozing fan-art)

In my previous artwork, I received a comment suggesting that I try designing a “onesie.” At first, I didn’t know what it was, so I did some research and discovered that it’s a type of outfit that covers the entire body. I found the concept interesting and thought it would be very applicable to my Holozing fanart. Who knows? This onesie design might even become merchandise in the future! I think it would be an intriguing and comfortable piece of clothing to wear.

For this project, I chose Gemino as my first subject and paired it with the Healer of the Ocean as the character to wear the onesie. I believe it’s a great combination, with the colors blending well together. My design has a good balance of warm and cool tones.

Since Gemino has a shell on its back, I incorporated it into the onesie as the Healer’s backpack. This added a playful and creative element, bringing Gemino’s features into the design. Another feature I included is the slippers, which are shaped like Gemino’s ears. To create visual harmony, I used the same color tone as the purple crystals on Gemino’s back. This way, the crystals don’t feel out of place, as there’s another item that shares a similar color in the design.

I took a simple approach to my drawing for this piece. Starting with a rough sketch of the design, I refined the details during the linework stage. I feel like this method is faster in this situation, but it can be quite challenging during the linework. I needed to be precise with my strokes since I only had one chance to get each line right. If a line didn’t turn out as I wanted, I had to erase it and start over. That’s the downside of this approach. However, when done correctly, it saves a lot of time.

Final artwork with the background!

I used three types of preset brushes: grass, rainforest, and clouds. I like these presets because they make creating backgrounds much easier, and the results look pretty good.

I had a lot of fun experimenting with this design and learning new techniques along the way. Creating something unique while staying true to the theme has been a rewarding experience. I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback—let me know what you think in the comments!
