He's just a jerk who decided the life of a hermit was perfect for him until some thief broke into his house, lol.

Love Emerald's look! Definitely getting girly-girl who's not afraid to bash some skulls in with a sword, sorta vibes, lol.

Day 3: Old OC

Gotta go with Eli who is definitely a tsundere, lol. But I think I'd be moody too if I were an exhausted and broke college student who'd caught the eye of the local vigilante. And also he works in a coffee shop, so that sucks.

Customer service will turn anyone into a tsundere.... I really like howyou ground your characters in interesting scenes that tell you about them, Ira's got a bookshelf with a bust on it, Cassians stuck in the woods, eli's in a cafe. It tells you a little about the character and the world they interact with. It's something I'd like to integrate into my work

Tbh war flashbacks to my department store days. Usually I don't bother with backgrounds because I'm not really good at them, but that's why I'm trying to use more this year. Even if it's simple stuff it's good practice!

Emerald's a notdeer and Ira's a cowardly mountain lion. It's kinda funny that I drew Ira as a furry before I drew him normal for this challenge. for reference he looks like this (mind the tiddies)

He's a demigod of death, and Em's soul is stuck halfway between life and death, so I thought it'd be neat if he was a carnivore and she was a herbivore that got messed up.

That's a pretty cool concept, but I'm biased because I always write about death for some reason, lol. I love the vibrant colors you use!

Day 4: Under-appreciated OC!
Going with Elias, but only because his story is new so he hasn't had a chance to get fans. As you can see, he's sulking about it while Cassian is probably laughing at him off-page, lol

homie will get his time in the sun he seems rad as hell


Some human versions of anthro characters I made for an unpublished comic, Dile, Wolf and Cat. They're a bunch of scavengers in a alien post apocalypse where all humans were killed and alien technology has given animals sentience. and nothing terrible happens to them I promise.

Nothing terrible? :eyes: I sense future trust issues, lol. Dunno why, but it's always fun to see human versions of anthro characters, maybe because the reverse is more common. The little spots of color tying them all together was a nice touch!

Day 5: Re-designed OC

Didn't have a lot of time for this one because I didn't know who to draw, lol. I don't really redesign characters. It's very likely what you see is what they originally looked like. Anyway, here's Oliver from an unpublished WIP. I didn't so much re-design him as I did the whole story. He's horrified at how cartoony he was before.

I think that his current and old desings are cute, I like his silly witch hat. But his hair style is nicer in the newer version. I personally love redesigning characters. I think its cool to see characters grow and change as I get older. but also of a big proponent of "if it aint broke don't fix it" and these are pretty fun designs!

Ik that cyan isn't the most unnatural eye colour but I wanna draw my bird boi!

I'm just doing the regular Inktober, this is what I have so far
For backpack, I drew Lolly rummaging through her backpack that she wears throughout Reap, and then because I spent too much time zoomed in on her, I had a lot of space, so I added in Kno

For Discover, I drew a scene from temptation stairway from Ena, from when she says "hark"

For boots, I thought of what characters wear boots, so I drew Amy Rose, and because I was focusing on boots, I re-drew that one meme where she's stamping in Batman's head

I accidentally got days four and five mixed around, but I still did them so whatever,

For binoculars, I drew the double dragon spyglass from Pikmin 4 and multiple pikmin

And for exotic, I went back to Ena and drew the Taski Maiden (plus friends)

And for today was trek, so I drew Perry the platypus and Doofenshmirtz trekking through the desert, from that one episode

It may not be natural but it looks cool, lol! I live the outline done in blue and the red bg really makes it all pop.

@drewdoniger I love your latest one, lol! Very nice use of color for the lighting and obviously A+ choice in characters.

OC-tober Day 6: past

Here's 16 year old Aster back when he was a mage in training and still didn't look like he and sleep were mortal enemies. Also, behold my half-assed background!

Half assed background is better than a photobashed one... speaking of which

This is between my story and stardew valley. Which, weirdly, is the origin of the story. I wanted to try my hand at fanfic/art, so I started to draw my head canons for the villagers, one of which was that Sebastian and Alex could make for a very interesting couple because both of them struggle with deadbeat dads, I thought that Sebastian and Hailey would have fun bitchy interactions. Since then, I've morphed the characters severely into whatever I wanted. Sebastian became Fabian. Hailey became Emerald (which is a sharp contrast in personality) and Alex became Ira (perhaps even sharper). Fabian and Emerald are twins, Fabian and Ira do NOT date (Ira is aroace) Ira and Emerald are besties, just like Alex and Hailey ig.


I made my own October art challenge involving my own characters from my comic

Day six: vampire

I can see the influence but I like the changes you made, especially with Emerald, lol.

@Beelovabea Oh, nice, I love the glow you added around the eyes!

Quick sketchy sketch before I go make preserves, but here's Day 7: Likes! Went with Aster, who loves sweets even though he doesn't eat as much as he should (he forgets). He also likes his pretend husband, but it was easier to draw a cake. :sweat_02:
