might sound weird to say as a person with a couple ocs who have Big Horrible Event(s) in their backstories or as a person who has like 3 ocs total bc he sucks at writing and as a person who hopes their ocs arent too Boring with [the thing im about to mention] but the thing about writing [characters] and [people] is that like.

any little thing a person experiences can take up their whole existence... its actually something "fun" to experience as i meet new ppl and do more things. My friend had something happen that she'll be talking about forever. I had several things happen last year that ill never stop talking about, some of which other ppl think werent that bad actually. In the same way I'll forever remember about the way my sister accidentally insulted me almost 10 years ago, it's really interesting and Fun to find and assign smaller things like that to characters...its really Real. some people's dealbreakers are other people's solvable problems etc etc

#(as well as the opposite: Big Event that maybe shocks everyone around em but they genuinely werent shaken by) #though this one is more common and leads to those ''ohh i didnt know that was normal oops'' moments #talkys #inspired by recent me and friend events #and also recent events where i told sum ppl more stuff about Thing and they responded as if it wasnt a big deal. but it was to me. #and also how i thought a part of al's childhood backstory was kind of maybe dumb and not realistically as impactful as id expect #but i saw someone on reddit almost word for word write that as their experience and how its shaped em as a person #and thats it like... the small things are boring and hard to keep track of sometimes #its not like you'll include every single little event your oc was shaped by in their bio #but idk. its like Fun to piece together for fun. to mold a human being #ykwim? wld be silly to tell everyone ''oh my oc struggles with self image due to many instances like... when their sister called em ugly'' #or write it anywhere but it is fun to Know and have in your head. and its real ! #just like if a friend told you about something that happened to em #long post #delete later #sorry i keep saying stupid obvious shit lately ive always been bad at oc making AND socializing so im learning everything late #but anyway yes. idk even as i keep making ocs that are ''similar'' its like. every person so different #people can react to anything in any way for any reason. i love people #this is why i struggle a bit with keeping ocs to archetypes i guess bc like. what is ooc for an oc. people contain contradictions all the #time. you can change yourself at any time. #ok nobody will read this far so ill go to the real insane rambling #part of this has been a part of my chats with talon while trying to get him to share more info #like. yeah ok you're 400+ years old the things that happened to you were such a comparatively small part of your life #but humans dont live as long and think about small things until they die. i dont think time would heal all wounds actually. not all of em #some thoughts just always come to gnaw at your brain. its ok to not be over things. i feel ill never be over some things #and also complainerism can be fun but thats something else entirely wee hee ^_^

Nami WIP + some chibi doodles heheeee

#chia draws #one piece #nami one piece #cat burglar nami #Nami #i love women #this piece is kicking my ass tho #like I’m trying to find my style but it’s all #confusing #like what do I want to achieve with my drawings? what do I want to focus on? #in other news I am now cooking as a way to procrastinate #thank you dunmeshi and the bear #I made bread and fresh pasta and carbonara and lemon curd #I love cooking man #idk why but my butter cookies always end up too hard #I’m gonna make some tangerine dishes so I can pretend I’m cooking for Nami #that way I trick myself into self care #anywayyyys #I love Nami so muchhhh #and idk how people have such cute tumblr layouts I don’t really get httml #I’m a STEM girlie but coding? not my forte #lately I’ve been thinking about one piece from a biotech standpoint #like tf do you mean nobody knows what DNA is besides judge and Vegapunk #they know some diseases are congenital but don’t know about DNA #huuuuuhhhh? #anyways I’m writing a fic about an OC funding a science journal in OP #it’s a lot of fun #art wip #unfinished

Yaaay, I got to do an art swap with @kyanako5972 -- here's her wonderful oc Claire Inez, featured in her webcomic SWAP Ensemble 🎶 Claire was a blast to draw, I hope I could do her justice!!

Failed versions include trial song background that just looked lame/unreadable, and the original singing pose that just looked off for some reason...

#ocs #waahhh thank you for doing the swap pal -- shes so cool ;--; #i always love seeing her pop up on your blog -- i was so excited to finally sit down and draw her :D #*offers you a cute little claire to bribe you to not Stab Me for my milgramblrgram attacks*👀👀👀 #i was fully prepared to do a clarinet-playing-pose but it felt kinda static for a trade piece😭 #so i figured dancing was a good mix of something fun and still musical 😎 she deserves the spotlight!! #i love all of her outfits -- i picked this one but it was hard to choose from so many cute ones haha #im impressed how many there are across the comic :0 #and hairstyles!! i liked drawing hers more loose here but there were so much fun ones!! #i couldnt get her pose/face to look right in the original sketch and i wanted it to be perfect >:[ #i also loved your recent dance sequence art and had to step up my game if i was going to match your dynamic poses haha! #🎶🎶🎶 #claire inez #swap ensemble

Sketch comm for @shanksflower 🌸

Thank you for your support~!!

#shanks #akagami no shanks #Chloris #alstroemeria #shanks flower #one piece #one piece oc #one piece fanart #skialdi art #;; my art #digital art #anime art #sketch art #sketch commission #oc commission #commission drawing #pebbsie #I seriously always have so much fun draw them #thank you !!! #your support is much appreciated

[saintadeline]

It's been a while so I made a new reference for comms :) I couldn't think of anything else to add so if you've got any additional questions just lmk (graphic design is not my passion)

#they kind of are always open by default #art tag #another note #art is meant to be fun for me first and foremost so sometimes you might see me make a really big piece #(like the oc one i posted recently) but i do not offer these as comms at all #theyre entirely dependent on my motivation and that is Not something i can or want to force even with money lol #also i am in no dire situation but moneys always good to have lol disability funds are not enough to do much #currently saving up for a new laptop that doesnt suck and also moving out someday (someday...) #anyway. prices here are just a base its negociable depending on what you want

[orokay]

I think one of my faaaavorite parts of doing commissions is seeing all of the art the commissioner sends for references. SO MUCH incredible gorgeous art that they've received from past commissions or drawn themselves and it's really amazing!! And seeing their characters interpreted in different styles!! I love it so much!!

#what's super super fun is when someone who has commissioned you before and has commissioned other people since comes back #and you see your own art in their references #and sometimes can pick out things the artists who have been commissioned since got from your piece #i super want to shout out voidwife who commissioned me to do two outfit lineups a few months ago and gave me a lot of freedom w/ the design #i loooove looking in her commissions tag and seeing the way other artists draw the outfits i designed it's so exciting #feeling sappy again i get sappy before bed #sleep well everyone!!! #not art #dl #actually not done yet not just art but also incredible characters in general #every oc has SO MUCH love put into them and i always feel so fortunate that people entrust their babies with me #i get to see such a wide range of designs and get to learn a little bit about each one and it's really amazing i can't take that for grante

a friend who'd wait :)

#im posting this very late because i was sort of weary of how it came out and ended up messing w it until it was like 4am oops. #and i have plans tmrw so... oh well! i did my best and ill put it out while i can! #and i tried to make the scene match barnard's colors lol #finn's ocs #finn's art #i know i said id do more sillay stuff with the simpler screentone only style but i had a couple more of these in me #and this is the first piece im making thats like an actual part of the story too rather than just setting stuff for fun #i wanna write something to go with it too but for now ill just sort of briefly explain the context in the tags here: #barnard has a pretty bad case of OCD and his compulsions have made it difficult to make friends in the past #he was never outright bullied or anything but people just didnt really have the patience to deal with it #he has compulsions that include stuff like walking through doors until it feels right and needing things to be perfectly aligned #which in group settings has lead to people having to wait for him to finish his rituals and join them #they might find it tolerable at first but eventually they grow impatient and hes just... not invited to stuff anymore #but juno is a newer member of the guild who ends up frequenting the same library. hes also kinda a little weird #and they dont become fast friends or anything but just sort of naturally spend time in the same place #though they never plan meetups they eventually fall into a routine. around the same time theyd just both be at the library #and read next to each other. and maybe talk a bit. and eventually they end up walking back to the guildhall together #since theyre going to the same place after all. and juno always waits for barnard outside the door #eventually barnard asks if this bothers him. juno kinda just tells him 'of course it does' without any malice or anything. just a statement #barnard is surprised and apologizes and juno says not to. but the next day juno doesnt show up at the usual time. #barnard assumes hes committed somekinda more by bringing it up. he ends up staying there late reading to get his mind off it & not ruminate #but when he leaves juno is in fact still waiting for him down the hall (see pic) having collected a bunch of books literally abt ocd #he fell asleep bc barnard stayed later than expected. and hes an eepy guy generally. and also one very bad at expressing himself #but now barnard gets that juno's 'of course it [bothers me]' had the implication of 'but its worth it' which no friend has previously done. #and from the interaction juno was also able to understand that this isn't something barnard just does for the hell of it so. he studies. #and checks a bunch of stuff out because he thinks it could help his friend too (theres ocd workbooks and such- i remember working w them) #and thats the point where they became more ''friends'' than ''pleasant library acquaintances'' #from there on they also do get into juno's problems. whole other bag of worms. but this specific scene is more about bernard from his pov #sorry about when i said briefly explain. i lied </3 #but compared to the whole sequence im picturing its brief so shhh

Limbus OC sinner no.? Minke

“Bagaimana bisa manusia hanya ditimbang dari surat-surat resmi belaka, dan tidak dari wujudnya sebagai manusia?”

Honestly this is all made bc i rlly wanna woobify minke ^_^ i think a tragic protagonist from an indonesian literature work should be woobified. Also bc i had to read buumi manusia in hs for my indonesian literature class. Pramoedya ananta toer is shaking in his grave rn im sorry sir

Btw the way u pronounce his name is min-ke, the ‘e’ is like how you say ‘uh’ but without the ‘h’ sound in the end

As always credit is due for user @/ threadtheocracy on twt for their limbus assets thank youuu!!! ur a lifesaver

#rain world #rw #rain world ocs #ocs #digital art #slugcat #art fight #team bloom #my art #others' ocs #this one's my favorite piece from this year's art fight :] #i think i kinda slayed with the colors #and the neuron flies are always so much fun to draw

[crescentfool]

every day i have to live with the fact that my subconscious is a blender with yosuke and sylvain in it and that some of my splat ocs had some of that juice and are influenced by those two 💔

#lizzy speaks #IM SO MAD (joke) why does this keep happening. #the subliminal yosuke and sylvain messaging.... #it wasn't on purpose i swear... #one day you people will see what i mean when i've defined my characters psyches enough to be like 'ok yeah i feel comfortable enough- #portraying them in a comic format' #also whenever my subconscious yosuke influence happens its always so funny... #in my head i always downplay how much i like yosuke.. im like 'yeah yosuke's neat!' most times #but whenever i interact with the source material i start turning feral and bark and keysmash when yosk does literally anything... 🙃 #i havent committed pearsona 4 to memory but i remember bits and pieces of it to get by #funnily enough i dont think any of my ocs have drank wyomina juice. i think they're untouchable and i will never make characters like- #those two. they are so. FUCK !!!! i need to draw them again #i hope everyone's had a nice august btw... i've had fun working on stickers but also i wanna draw illustrations again... #especially of the new battle outfits for sees those look soo classy #i have stuff i want to draw for mochizuki monday but i keep getting distracted...

“Riptide” Nel, Astronomer of the Straw Hat Pirates

A young mermaid who dreams of one day traveling to the Moon. She hides her soft heart beneath a harsh and uncaring facade, wary of the world that has done nothing but cause her suffering. User of the Mizu Mizu no Mi.

#nel tag #opoc #one piece oc #as always pls ask me about her i love her so much #did i give her THE mary sue devil fruit? i sure did! this is my oc and ocfic and i can do what i want! #also i just think it would be fun to play around with and make viable <3 #(also pls ask me about who im shipping this tsundere with)

[pokemonruby]

i know i’ve been super quiet recently and it’s mainly because my life has been in absolute shambles and i’m trying to keep myself distracted every second of the day lest i go utterly insane and also nothing ever goes on with me in general so i’m not sure what to... talk about really. but i think i’ll start endeavouring to more often, or at least when i feel up for it since i know isolating myself twenty four seven isn’t healthy haha.

so uh...... i’m nearly finished with my novel! i only have a few more chapters but i’m estimating it’ll be done by the middle or end of summer depending on how the editing process goes :) don’t know how long it’ll be until i publish it afterwards since i’m not exactly sure how to like, go about doing all of that stuff but i’ve put a lot of effort into it, and i really hope it shows eventually. 

#over half a million words of content so. one piece fans i got a challenge for you! #riley rambles #it really isn't anything special just the culmination of all my oc ramblings over like. a decade of brainstorming heheh #and i'm honestly not that great at writing overall but it's my favorite hobby so just know that i try. and i work hard. i work REALLY hard. #even if it is ulitmately medicore i'm having a lot of fun with it. #i've learned that you should really just do things for yourself and not worry about public approval. if i did i would've gone crazy by now #i just want to put something meaningful into this world. prove that my existence MEANS something. yeah. #but it's a good way to cope too. gives me an actual reason to get up in the mornings even though these days i ponder what the point is. #anyways. just thought i'd share for anyone who might be interested. #if you're ever curious about my wips my ask box is always open but don't feel pressured of course :)

if you want to get really inexplicably good at drawing very specific flowers MAKE some ocs with various flower symbolism and motifs

#i am. so good at drawing chrysanthemums and specifically the variety of morning glory thats considered a weed where i live (bindweed) #i can bust them out referenceless in like 2 seconds its getting ridiculous #as an art student ive always kept a lot of my school and professional work and for-fun work (namely my funny little anime boy lookin ocs) #pretty separate (i dont know why. its good to have boundaries but straight up most of my classmates are SHOCKED when they see my #watercolour cartoons LOL like no one knows outside of my closest friends and also my blog followers HKJFDLSHJKFDSD) #(a grad student buddy of mine suggested i bring more of this side of myself out more and i think hes right) #(its good to have things a little separate but that doesnt mean everything always has to be on other sides of the earth) #(so i've been trying to work on that) #but the flowers have absolutely bled into my schoolwork. sometimes i need something to decorate some ceramic piece or i need a quick subject #for like a painting and its like BAM. chrysanthemums #someday someones gonna ask whats the deal. someones gonna ask the meaning of it all #how will i tell them. its because of my magical girl oc and her friends

theres nothing i want more than for an older millennial couple to adopt me and my boyfriend i want to be friends with two millennials so badly

#imagine theres a couple who are in their early 30s #the man is a techbro but not in the annoying cryptofascist way just in the i work in the tech industry way #and the lady is a quirked up autistic housewife who obsesses over video game franchises and has 100 ocs #and they have that cringeworthy yet oddly charming millennial humor to them where theyre always using reddit catchphrases #fucked around and found out! #play stupid games win stupid prizes! #ERMAGERD! #that kinda stuff #and we'd have dinners at each others houses #but mostly the millennial couple's house cuz they actually own their own house and we're just renters #they could tell us about idk their animal crossing island and what episode of friends they're rewatching #and we could tell them about the intricacies of the plot of one piece and what new skins we got in fortnite #and we'd all be slightly confused about the other's interests but we'd still respect our love for nerdy shit #and whenever we take selfies they post the pictures to their facebook because to them facebook is still a viable form of social media #and the captions are like 'babysitting these dweebs!!' to poke fun at the slight age difference #and me and bf would make comments like 'i'm gonna put you in a nursing home soon' in retaliation #and we'd have a cool discord server where we play minecraft together. because that is the one thing all generations can agree on #which is that discord and minecraft are just kinda epic #that's all i want. is that so wrong

Nobody told me writing fanfiction was a transferable skill but I’m working on a manuscript for a small scientific publication and my prose is much better (and less painful to produce) than it was when I slapped out my senior thesis almost two years ago, and the only substantial writing I’ve done between those two professional projects is a God-forsaken crossover fanfiction and a metric ton of OC backstory nonsense and it’s feeling a little bit like correlation equals causation

#My job and my hobbies are VERY separate so it’s always a little weird to me when they overlap #But I SWEAR when I was teasing out the wording of my introduction section today #it felt exactly like when I’m piecing together one of my silly little stories #I pawed through my docs from the last three years (when I started writing for fun more consistently) out of curiosity #Turns out I’m sitting on 70 pages of Fluorescence and 192 pages cumulatively of dramatic OC backstory and shenanigans #Not counting collaborative writing projects with buddies #Can’t put that on my CV LMAO but it’s a great outlet and if it improves my scientific writing (which I used to dread) that’s a win to me!! #Anyway anyway I don’t normally ramble like this but it tickled me #Thought some of you fellow writing buddies might be tickled too #Maybe you can relate and if so PLEASE share
