My partner and I are stuck in a very seasonal, tourist-y part of my state - which means winters are especially hard to prepare for and stable income is always a struggle. Even boosting me helps, cuz I'm not a particularly "known" artist <3

Illustration of my oc Harmony in a pokemon ranger uniform with her leafeon, yanma, and gastrodon.

Illustration of my oc Harmony slightly more dressed down but still in her ranger uniform getting her morning stretches in. Her Leafeon and Lurantis are cheering her on.

Don’t ask me the context of why I drew this it’s embarrassing #Art #OCsky

Illustration of my oc Harmony and my partner’s oc Mihos on two surfboards on the water. Mihos has a bright hot pink and yellow surfboard and Harmony’s is blue- mirroring the pink Harmony has in her hair and the blue Mihos has in his. They are holding hands.

These aren’t intended to match but they kind of do- who let my barbie girl into the club #Art #OCsky

Illustration of my oc Harmony wearing darker clothes than she usually does. Her makeup is also darker featuring dark blue lipstick that matches the guitar in her lap. The guitar is implied to be Mihos’ guitar- it’s a metaphor or whatever.

A silly fake photocard of my partner’s oc Mihos at a concert with various collaged stickers like he’s really someone’s kpop bias.

About to spam a thread of all the art I made of these two while I blacked out and succumbed to my hetslop addiction… Mihos is owned by my wife @weirdghostparty.bsky.social #Art #OCsky

Several illustrations of my oc Harmony who has long curly pink and green hair in various poses and outfits including a gym look and bikini where she isn’t wearing her signature whimsical makeup. It really makes her look naked without it though.

Various illustrations of my partner’s oc Mihos who is an older washed up rock star that I am very normal about. He has tattoos and is going grey but I’m still going to put him in slutty 90s grunge outfits because punk is forever.

TITLE: OC-Tober Art Prompts
Description: it's OC-tober, the perfect excuse to spend the whole month drawing your
original characters. you can approach these prompts with whatever degree
of seriousness and effort you want. this isn't a legally binding list of obligations,
it's just ideas to get the gears turning!
the list: • finish an unfinished piece (maybe even more than one)
• design a new character, or finish an unfinished design
• rework a character design that needs some polish
• design a movie poster or a magazine cover
• draw a single-page comic or short storyboard

• draw something you find difficult, using your OC
• draw an OC at a different age than you usually do
• redraw a scene from a movie or TV show with OCs
• draw an OC cosplaying one of the characters that
inspired their design
• redraw a childhood drawing of an OC
• draw two OCs interacting who you haven't before
• play with alternate color palettes
Footnote: re-interpret however you want or combine with other lists! the only
rules are have fun, take care of your wrists, and don't use AI.

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

I think webtoons ushering in infinite vertical scroll in comics was fucking horrible and was genuinely harming to the art of paneling and page to page flow for an easily made and consumed socmed style of bland nothingness in story progression them doing AI now is like yeah ofc they are
