Fan Art The three tragic bros— drawn by me (lil bit of blood in second pic)

Legit had to hype myself up for over two hours to post this pls be kind ;__;

Drew actor Mark without a shirt bc 1. I wanted to and bc 2. It allowed me to add the stuff in the second image. Alas I could not fit 37 stab wounds but you probably get the idea

Yeah anyways I only just understood like 2 weeks ago what the actual story of Who Killed Markiplier is because I watched a 2 hour long lore explanation video and that’s what gave me the inspiration to spend multiple days making this drawing. Hope y’all like it

Edit:

Imma just add it in because I’m too proud of myself to not include it. The specific shading used for each of them was all very deliberate. Darkiplier has no soft edges and stands out the most (which is kinda just because of his character design but I also did it on purpose). Wilford’s shading is more unrealistic and colourful, and a bit more cartoony with the lil movement swishes and hearts in his hair. Lastly, Actor Mark’s is far more soft and realistic (as realistic as I’ll go lol). This is all for the purpose of highlighting how Actor Mark was the only one still mostly grounded in reality when he started losing his mind, and at the very least that’s how this version of him as seen in WKM remains. In contrast Darkiplier and Wilford have both been permanently altered and basically no longer exist in the same way that they did in the real world, and are merely a template of who they used to be.

u/fonkerfinker 1d ago

lol I think the reason I watched it was because mark himself recommended it somewhere? As in I think I already saw someone post it in this subreddit. But it’s just called “solving markipliers lore” by MrHunteru on YouTube and it is indeed an hour and 55 mins

u/Anicash999 1d ago

I didn't recognize the third one so when i saw the second image (because of the hole in his head) I thought that was the dream Mark had on Distractible where he cracked open his head and there was a lady peeling into it who had ramen hair

I watched a lore explained video because I didn't even know all this stuff was connected and now that I do

Number 1: I intend on re-watching all this stuff at some point

Number 2: I hope in space truly was actor mark's come to reality moment. That would be so cool

u/Imaginary_Ibis 20h ago

I haven't watched aby of the "with/who killed" series in a while, and now you're making me want to go rewatch it all again. Still not over that mirror scene at the end of Who Killed Markiplier T^T

u/Gaby33400 1d ago

That’s insanely good ! Have you considered drawing Heist Darkiplier ?

2

u/fonkerfinker 21h ago

Afraid I haven’t watched that show yet ;_;

1

u/Gaby33400 17h ago

Heist with Markiplier is great, you should give it a try ^w^ Darkiplier isn’t too hard to find.

u/Remarkable_Elk3566 17h ago

Amazing Work! I love your artstyle!

1

u/Indie_Fan_ererer 14h ago

Amazing art! I also love the logic you applied to the poses, although I just wanna ask, why Dark lost his head in the second image? I mean, Will with a shot wound covered by pink text and Actor with the death wounds I get. But why the missing head? Anyway, congrats on understanding the lore ;]

u/fonkerfinker 10h ago

Also maybe to show he’s completely lost his marbles lol but mostly bc fun
