Description Hey guys, it’s been a while since I posted anything Overwatch-related. I’ve actually been making a couple of characters for it, and I just never felt the need to share them until now.

From left to right, the characters are:

Helios - This kid is actually Brian/Doomfist. I decided to change up his appearance and kit to revolve around hardlight constructs. I made his backstory involving his late father being a lesser scientist in Overwatch working on hardlight technology and was killed by Reaper. I know that Symmetra also uses hardlights, but I felt that she was basically summoning materials from thin air which could be the case since she can make an actual teleporter. Brian’s hardlight constructs are more like Green Lantern’s builds than Symmetra’s. He is a jack of all trades kind of hero, so he’d be DPS.

Rojo and Azura - These two ladies were inspired by a fellow artist’s OCs. The artist’s name is Kanelfa and his OCs’ names are Sinder and Smolder. I wanted to make a flame based hero whose kit was all about damage over time (DoT), so I got to working on these two. Rojo is more offense-oriented with her flames while Azura is more defensive about hers. Their unique skin tones and flame powers were the result of genetic tampering, making them able to absorb radiant heat from the surroundings and conjure fire.

I also felt like making these two like Brian, but I’m not sure yet LOL

Lahar - This girl was actually one of my personal OCs whom I thought would fit Overwatch with her skills. She’s a water-based hero who can create whips of water from her arms and other constructs. I felt making a hero with crazy mobility with whips reminiscent of Kratos from GoW, so I made this girl. Fun fact, she was originally supposedly to use acid instead of water, and she would be able to attack her opponents through their armor. My original idea for her Ultimate was a self-buff that makes her ignore both armor and shield points when attacking, but then Sombra was released. Now, her Ultimate lets her summon water around herself to let her slide around the map like Iceman and his ice trails.

Hammond - Yes, this is the same Hammond mentioned on the Lunar Colony. My idea for him was a support hero that tinkers with his teammates and opponents’ kits, removing or increasing cooldown. I had this whole concept for an event where Hammond sends a plea for help to Overwatch, because he needed help stopping the Moon Gorillas from returning back to Earth to kill people again. He was sabotaging their plans singlehandedly, but now he required assistance. He also wears a harness with four extra arms, for extra mobility and to tinker faster with technology.

Konrad - I was inspired by Spec Ops: The Line, so I felt the need to create a soldier hellbent on dying but he’s way too sturdy to keel over. He is an earth-based hero, creating fissures and earthquakes on the ground, as well as blasting boulders around with the two piledrivers on his arms. He is a tank hero that is practically a meat shield, having the ability to get the opponents’ attention and to tank damage. He’s also got the ability to convert damage done to him into healing for his teammates around him, showing that he would rather die than get his teammates killed. I purposely designed him to look similar to Master Chief and Doomguy, to play around with the idea of a futustic soldier badass, but this one is broken due to all the fighting he has went through.

Agila - I felt that there wasn’t enough aerial-centric heroes in Overwatch, so I made this guy. He’s an air-based hero that has crazy aerial manoeuvrability and can fly whenever he wants, but his attacks are weak due to it also being based on wind. I had the idea of a heroic Omnic who wants to follow in the steps of the late Mondatta, so he strives to be a hero to the Omnics by giving them peace with the humans. He’s got his work cut out for him, that’s for sure. Agila is also a Filipino-based Omnic unit, just because I want to make a Filipino hero LOL

Anyway, what do you guys think? If you want to see the separate pieces or to learn more about them, lemme know and I’ll post them here too.

I’ll leave a link to Kanelfa’s work, but be careful. He makes NSFW art more often than SFW:

On that note, please enjoy this crap sketch I made! WID DEEZ HANDZ!!!

Konrad reminds me of halo. Also I see Helios and Lahar getting together. I really like Agila as he looks like a bad-ass vulture from spider-man homecoming and/or a more humanoid clockwork from Sly Cooper.

LOL he’s mentioned in the lore to the lunar map. Hammond is one of the most hinted heroes so far
