Let's start off with the main character. At this point, if you have read the story, you know who he is, but just in case you've forgotten or don't know him, in which case, I don't blame you, here is his character design. The initial one, at least:

This design is far more composed but not THAT composed. I learned that I don't actually like big eyes therefore I stuck with realistic ones since they work out better for me. Anyway, I am happy with this prototype, let's move on. Do notice that designs are obviously important to give the reader a wider image of what the characters are supposed to look like, obviously. Hence why I did their designs, though late.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given that I'm remastering the Doompedia, the students' order will be the same, which means that Lus (Daniel's table partner) is next.

Note: I've wanted to give her the absolute bitch-face, so it came out like this. She's supposed to be stone-cold for reasons in particular. The warm clothes symbolize her hatred for cold since she comes from Ukraine. However, I wasn't really happy with her initial design, so I gave her a more appropriate one. Mainly because, I rapidly grew the tendency of hating on big eyes, in drawing terms. For some reason, I just can't. Anyway, here:

I figured that not only does this design make her look more appealing, but it resembles the art style that I am comfortable with. You can see that it's practically identical but at the same, you can spot a few differences. How Lus' hair is thinner in the later design. Her scarf isn't all over the place. The eyelashes resemble a far more appealing feminine trait, rather than simply having eyelashes for the sake of eyelashes (if this made any sense).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is her prototype design:

Note: Sana's happy charisma is something that I feel like I should've highlighted yet for purposes intended she's supposed to be a happy individual on the surface, at least. The swift ponytail on the back of her head alongside the ribbon are some of her identical traits. Nonetheless, I felt like I could do more, so the second time I drew Sana, it came out something completely more different, that I adored. Here:

I believe she looks far more appealing here. In her first design, she had this child-like image. Here, she has a more versatile image going for her. A beautiful girl with compassionate eyes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Number 4 is Kan. Now, as I was initially drawing my prototypes, I thought that I should just stick with the basic idea of drawing every character from the same angle. Because you know, they are all criminals. Criminals, for example, in jail, or before entering jail, are exposed to photography from both of their sides. Yet that really sounded boring to me. Honestly, it's because after reading Btooom!, I realized that I would just be copying the scenario. But that's still not it. The idea just sounds boring to me, so I went complete freedom mode and gave my characters their poses despite the place. I rather leave the place and the time for the reader to interpret.

Note: Although not revealed yet, Kan is extremely evil. With that in mind, I've wanted to give him a cynical malicious look. Also, since I enjoy drawing spiked hairs, Kan was fun to draw. I drew Kan slightly different and more accurate to his actual design, by actual I mean, how he REALLY is supposed to look like. Here:

Oh yeah, the big eyes things. Yeah, had to get that out of the way. Think of this as an alternate artwork, due to the silver necklace.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next up, Ikkiri. Unlike literally all the characters, I already knew what Ikkiri looked like. Hell, I started to draw because I had a literal image of what Ikkiri would look like. Since she's somewhat similar, in terms of looks, to a friend of mine. Obviously, I had to alter a lot of aspects. Here is the first prototype:

Note: She's wearing a hoodie and some of her hair strands are shaped differently from the rest. I didn't want to exaggerate much, so in the first prototype, I simply stuck with the image I had in mind. However... I decided to draw Ikkiri again and added different elements.

Instead of limiting myself to giving Ikkiri's hair strands irregular strands, I adapted the stance of giving most of her hair strands, if not all, irregular shapes. I actually loved this change. Also, I gave her a more daring expression, which foreshadows one of her personalities. Furthermore, she's in a sailor uniform this time and not a hoodie. Most of the female characters are in sailor uniforms because according to scientific facts, female individuals' appeal completely rises up to the maximum in sailor uniforms, am I right?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Despite not having that much relevance in the current story, at least for now, I gave Ryoken a design. Unlike all the previous designs, I didn't draw him a second time. I was too lazy to do so, honestly. Here:

Note: On second thought, I should've drawn him a second time due to the big eyes. Not much else to add. If you trust someone who looks at you the way Ryoken does, don't be too surprised if you end up with a knife in your abdomen.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just like Ryoken, I didn't draw Akihiko a second time, here you go:

Note: I think it was around the time that I started to draw Akihiko that I developed the bad habit of adding way too many LINES on the damn hair. To the point that I felt the urgency to draw characters for a second time. Yet I was fine with this. It wasn't that excruciating, or so I thought... But looking at it now, I believe the number of lines to be justifiable since Akihiko has the emo teenager hairstyle.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ironically, just like Ikkiri, Kanawari was one of the characters that I had a lot of time to think about. However, out of all the characters that I've drawn, Kanawari is the one whose design changed the most. I would like to give some demonstrations, but her first design is nowhere to be found since I didn't save it in the first place. Given that, I'll show the first prototype:

Note: This is kinda what I was talking about regarding the number of the lines. It got out of hand pretty quickly. Anyway, I wanted to draw Kanawari in a more different way from the rest of the girls, so I salvaged my mind for a bit and thought of a senior back in middle school who would always wear heart-shaped glasses. Perhaps I'm slightly mean for saying this, but her face wasn't that pretty, however, the moment she put on those glasses, she would look like an utter goddess to me, sent from the heavens. The t-shirt is supposed to contrast the glasses since the glasses resemble love yet the shirt reflects the opposite. In the end, as you look at her eyebrows, you realized you have been trolled.

Nonetheless, give the number of lines, I drew her a second time and it came out just a little different. Not that much. Here:

Not drawing the eyes felt lazy as hell, so I simply drew the glasses below them slightly. Kanawari doesn't actually look good in pictures, so she has difficulty smiling correctly in front of a picture. Hence the expression.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm surprised at myself for drawing Tsudo without a perverted expression, but here is how he turned out to be:

Note: Think of Tsudo here wearing an expression when he is not being an obnoxious pervert. I must say though, he looks cool. I would never give myself that haircut because I would look horrible in it, but Tsudo owns it. And no, no second drawing. The lines here are fine... I think...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: As you can see, I decided to have some fun with special effects. I suck at coloring, or rather, have zero experience, so I just pressed fill and viola. Hyunda is supposed to have a cold, calculative, malicious, horrifying look, alongside his white eyes. I know this doesn't do him justice, but it shouldn't be too long when a time will come where I will be able to draw Hyunda according to my actual thoughts. Since, you know, Hyunda is actually the character that I've spent the most thinking, regarding his personality and his outside appearance has to match his personality. Alas, I drew him a second time. Not with color though:

He looks far calmer here. Both of his ears are pierced since he likes earrings and piercings. Just like Daniel, he has spiked hair. The eyes are somewhat big, which makes me want to draw Hyunda into my artstyle soon enough.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The bookworm, otherwise known as Gale Iris. She's probably the character who has less relevance out of all, regarding the F class, that is. Here is her first design, which is simple as hell:

Note: The numbers of unnecessary lines are cancerous. Anyway, after some thinking, I gave her a more efficient design:

It's not much, but it does it. Iris not having her glasses felt lazy and just because I had no experience when it came to drawing glasses, I didn't tell myself to simply avoid it and gave it a shot.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you've read this fiction, this character should not be strange to you, given the amount of time I've given her throughout the story... Yeah, it's Arkalee. There is one drawing of her early on in the chapters, well, not that early... Anyway, I didn't like the design I had of her, so I literally redid her. Here is the prototype:

Note: Out of all the characters who I've done the crime of abusing the number of lines in their hairs, Arkalee is perhaps the biggest victim. It's whatever though. It's Arkalee. She's a victim anyway. This design is before Hyunda told her that he didn't mind if Arkalee unleashes all of her hair, thus completely erasing the twin-tails. Regardless, I did a second drawing, to which I'm happier:

Arkalee is supposed to be pretty. Or, put more bluntly, an attention whore. Because she really has the idea that looks are enough to win a man's heart. With that in mind, I designed her as someone who has implanted in her brain the complete image that without efforts alone and with looks alone, it's possible to accomplish such feat. Though I had to make her pretty and since she is wearing twin-tails, I had a little bit of fun. Her earring is a combination of diamond irregular-sized pearls all stacked up. Her twin-tail pins are something I came up with on my own. They seemed cute enough. Her frontal hair strands are sorta irregular, as you can already see. Lastly, of course, she's on her phone taking selfies. You can't be a narcissist and not take selfies.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was so hyped about drawing this guy that I'm surprised that I didn't draw him a second time. I probably got too satisfied with his design at first glance which is why I didn't draw him a second time. Even though I will have to draw him in the upcoming volume since he is the current protagonist. Here is the design:

Note: In this drawing, you might find Kawahara a LOT uncharacteristic in comparison to the Kawahara you know. That's because Kawahara always looks plain and calm in pictures. He manipulates those into thinking that that's how he behaves and so on. Honestly, a whole lot of my characters have the exact same circumstance where they force expressions just to not get suspected. Clearly, there are some that do not give a fuck and just bust out their moody expressions. Kawahara has supreme control over this, however. The part that doesn't have lines are the locks' parts. They are black and the rest is purely blonde, hence the contrast. Ultimately, the dragon pendant is something personal of his own. Kawahara loves dragons.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I think of Tateyana's design, I think of Iris, for a reason. Both Tateyana and Iris are characters that have received barely any time for development or interaction whatsoever. So, why even compare both? Well, that's because I've made Iris design simple due to the fact that she has no screen time, which is fair. Tateyana should be in the same spot, but... I think I've spoiled her design slightly. In other words, Tateyana's design is a whole lot more consistent than originally intended. The prototype, first:

Note: I tried drawing her in a sports outfit and thought she was gonna look ugly or something but... It's the opposite. She's cute and taunting. Honestly, most of the characters that receive little to no screen time FOR SOME ODD REASON are the ones that have the... better designs? I don't even know. The crown earring is there because she thinks of herself as a queen. Adidas outfit, because why not. I drew an additional drawing due to the number of lines, even though they are not THAT abundant:

Before you jump to any conclusions, I'll explain the circumstance and why she's on a cheerleader uniform in the first place. Remember back in the first volume when Sagasuga went to her room for like thirty minutes, if not more? Sagasuga dared Tateyana to put on something daring that would make his heart skip a beat, otherwise, he would win the whole flirting challenge. Tateyana doesn't really know how to say no, so after five minutes or so, Tateyana got into a cheerleader uniform which, for some reason, she has one, and asked Sagasuga how she looked in a shy way. Sagasuga, after some thinking simply said that her appeal went up but it still wasn't enough. Henceforth why she's pouting. And yes, I'm aware that the hair is all over the place and that it's hard to tell the directions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been known for my inconsistency throughout my life in one way or another, but I tried not to transition that into my drawings. Unfortunately, I sorta failed and gave Kuzan a really mediocre design, but it's better than nothing. Actually, I'm not too sure if it is... Here:

Note: Kuzan is usually happy-go-lucky, but this is his face after he leaves his step-father's home every time. Here, Kuzan isn't bald, but wearing a wig under his fisherman hat. A really plain boring design. Kuzan deserved better.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although she doesn't get that much screentime, I've already had a clear image of what Akimiyashika was going to look like. Ikkiri. Akimiyashika. Hinagiku. I already knew these three designs from the back of my mind. Nonetheless, after the prototype, I changed Akimiyashika's design slightly. Before that, here is the prototype:

Note: Akimiyashika is supposed to be brave and fearless. I think those two attributes describe Sagittarius' females perfectly. But this drawing felt way too lazy for me. Too much hair everywhere. I tried to add a side braid, but I didn't really like the idea, unlike the lip piercing idea, which I kept in this second drawing:

I took more freedom here because Akimiyashika's design was originally supposed to be based on one of my unrealistic crushes ever. I think it was back in middle school that I had this huge crush on a girl from the same year as I that had a huge forehead. I usually don't really like foreheads, but for some unexplicit reason, her forehead looked majestic. I'm not really afraid of admitting this because it's the source of my aspiration when it came to drawing Akimiyashika. Still, something to keep in mind is that if I were to go over the original design which was based on this girl that I had a crush on, her expression was way calmer and far more gentle. Something you don't see here, because the contrast is intentional, as Akimiyashika has totally different circumstances. Also, the lip piercing. Why is it so attractive? I will probably never get the answer to this question.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not too sure if Rayazaki's design is more inconsistent than Kuzan's, but it's either that or really close to it. I put almost little to no effort into this guy.

Note: I wanted to give him a stark confident look. That was about it. Oh yeah, the hair. I really liked where I was going with it UNTIL I realized that I was just mashing lines onto lines lmao.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I swear it's not a gender thing, but the same level of inconsistency can hardly be found in my female characters' drawings. Maybe it's because my brain just reflects my obvious attraction towards the female gender in general or something... Anyway, Yukishiro. I already did a drawing of her and she has been a major character lately and most likely will continue to be, because, well, I sorta love her character. This is the first prototype:

Note: I naturally couldn't forgive myself for massacring Yukishiro with those blasphemous numerous lines, so I went with another drawing. The idea in the prototype was simple yet explicit. You would have to guess what sort of smile she is wearing underneath her sleeves. Her eyes weren't serious enough, I felt like... It needed to match her personality far more, or at least that was my thought process while moving onto the second drawing here:

I was authentically happy with this result. Her eyes were serious enough and she looked bored as per usual. Also, I gave Yukishiro the hime haircut. This is not so much of a restless bitch-face, but more of a face of someone that observes details carefully. Oh, right, the Scorpio tattoo. Couldn't forget that.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

His hair looks somewhat like Tsudo, however, it's ultimately different. I didn't draw Tatsu a second time as I was happy with the first design:

Note: Tatsu is secretly a smoker. His hair is low spiked, just a little bit. Honestly, not much to add. His time will come, just not now.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In case you haven't read this fiction I won't spoil you, so I'll just limit myself to giving Yulia's design. I drew Yulia only once before and honestly, I find that drawing pretty laughable. So I remastered her completely into a prettier girl. Daniel wasn't kidding when he was objectively evaluating her:

Note: Yulia sometimes really liked to apply this hairstyle, the waterfall-braids hairstyle. I find it extremely beautiful, even though it's most likely a ton of work for whoever decides to do this type of hairstyle. The sunflower is a symbol of happiness...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another character that barely has any screentime (that will change in the future though, in a way), Susaga, makes it to the list. I only drew Susaga once, because his design is quite simple:

Note: A sudden lack of originality struck me while drawing Susaga, so I gave him a design that resembles a Doomer. Just Google it, you will see the resemblances all over the place. And yes, it's a skull earring.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The shrimp, otherwise known as Hinagiku. Hinagiku comes from China, so I attributed her design according to her origins. I like the Oriental-girl type of design, honestly. I was successful with my first drawing so I had no necessity to draw Hinagiku a second time. Here:

Note: Just like Ikkiri and Akimiyashika, Hinagiku's design was literally crystal clear to me. Usually, this sort of hairstyle isn't followed with twin tails falling down. However, I decided to make her large hair strands fall from the upper buns. She has a lot of Chinese-languaged accessories. The two buns, the earring, and the star. She's telling you to shut up. Or Rayazaki. Or most likely heard someone cursing. She doesn't like those who curse all the type. She is a true discipline believer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While drawing Sagasuga, I had to keep an idea in mind, that being: Balance. His design has to be balanced. But, I mean, literally. You'll see what I mean:

Note: His hair strands are evenly matched, therefore resembling balance. Aesthetic balance, if I make myself clear. Same with the eyebrows. Just like Kawahara, Sagasuga has an impressive emotional control whenever exposed to photography. Though, Sagasuga's psychopathy is leaking quite a bit. Honestly, I wanted to draw him a second time and make his hair strands a little longer and perhaps the back of the head spiked horizontally.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last student in F class is Shizuku. I didn't draw her a second time because I didn't feel the need to:

Note: I don't dislike short-hairs, I just prefer long hairs. Why am I saying this? Because out of all the female characters, Shizuku is the only short-haired one. Her earring is a spiked bomb. Of course, it's not an actual bomb. The fresh idea behind her character design is that she is a fujoshi. The smile tells it all...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You thought that this was it, but there are still three more characters left. The ending line is drawing near, so I'll wrap this up. Introduced in the first chapter, the Italian teacher, Basara:

Note: I never understood why my teachers, mostly the male ones, didn't dress up neatly. Until I met a teacher in my seventh grade who actually dressed up correctly and had teachers and even female students falling for him. Since then, whenever I think of a young male teacher, his overall appearance came to mind. Nonetheless, Basara is quite different from the guy. He wasn't as ripped as Basara.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone's favorite boomer, George Kentucky:

Note: Be aware that his ethic is not white, but black. Due to the fact that he is South-African, he has the South-Africa flag tattooed on his thick left bicep.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Class F's second teacher, Yuka:

Note: She just wants Basara to notice her, really. Poor girl.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That about does it. I will do a mini self Q&A below in case there are some doubts:

Q: Why are you introducing the characters' designs this late into the series?

A: Better late than never. Also, it's because before, 13 months ago, I wasn't able to draw or rather, I had no idea how to draw in the first place, and given that recently I got a tablet, I've been able to draw. Ultimately, I was finally able to portray my wish of showing my characters in a virtual physical form.

___________________________________________________________________________________________

Q: Why aren't any of the characters drawn with color? Wouldn't they be way more appealing?

A: How correct you are. But I suck at coloring, so I figured I could either try my damn best at coloring and present you the results or just give the black and white versions. The reason why I didn't go with the first option is that the results would not satisfy anyone, I believe. I know little to nothing about color theory.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Q: The characters' profiles on this page are a bit vague and empty, why not add some more content?

A: Apart from my notes, you can find the characters' original profiles in chapter 7.5 Doompedia. That will give you a crystal clear idea of the characters if you already didn't have it.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Q: I've seen the cover of Classroom of Doom and it has changed. It used to have a blue-haired girl. What happened to her?

A: The current cover is a temporary one. Actually, the previous cover was a temporary one too, but the idea of never getting a tablet consumed me which means that at some point, I considered making the blue-haired girl my permanent cover. However, a cover is extremely important. What does this mean exactly, overall? I am going to start working on a real cover soon enough since I plan to resume this fiction as soon as possible.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

A: Hell to the yes I will. For your information, I drew all my previous illustrations on actual paper and had to take pictures with my phone and then post them here. If I have a chance to improve them, then I will take it. However, if you religiously prefer the older designs, then I suggest you comment down below and say which. Or you can just go to the chapters where the illustrations are present and save them.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Q: Why not ask a professional artist to remake all of your designs? Wouldn't that just be easier?

A: I have no money.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Q: Will you do more illustrations from now on? If so, what exactly is on your mind?

A: First of all, in the past, I just posted illustrations whenever I wanted to, but after seeing how Light Novel formats adapt and so on, I've decided that I will do five illustrations per volume. In other words, each volume contains 8 chapters, if you include the (.5) chapter. In those eight chapters, there will be five illustrations. Do note that they will be distributed randomly, meaning that the first illustration doesn't always go along with the first chapter of the volume and so on.

___________________________________________________________________________________________

Q: Why put this much effort into illustrations when words are what makes a story in the first place?

A: True enough, I could simply build a story built around words and all that. But, I have the freedom to give my readers stimulation strong enough for them to be able to emphasize with the characters on a higher level since appearance alone tells a lot of a character's personality. Also, I've developed a feeling of love towards the art of creation, alternatively known as drawing.

If you have any questions, say so below, as I will answer them. Thank you for reading.
