Ngl, I'm am FURIOUS that Quincey does not have more art for her. LOOK AT THIS,LOOK AT HER! THIS IS PEAK CHARACTER DESIGN AND YOU CAN'T CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE!! In other news, I finally remembered to draw Heat with his vine tattoos :D ...Yes, this is how I draw Heat, shush. He looks cool like this, lol.

When I tell you guys that I haven't even finished a quarter of this project and it has made me cry so many times already- I actually started this a couple of weeks after Cavetown actually released this cover of Mine All Mine. I could've done it with the original, but I honestly love Cavetown a lot, and love this version of the song so much! Anyways, this is actually a small part of the WIP that I wanted to share with you guys before it spoiled anything else of the project. I feel like where I trimmed this to actually post the sneak peek doesn't give away much...hopefully it doesn't, since this is actually a new avenue I'm venturing down to introduce my ocs and their information/stories. But, yeah, no, this whole project has become an absolute emotional roller coaster. I'm in love with the art I'm making for a lot of the slides, but I feel like I'm purposefully hurting myself by making something THIS sad, lol.

Actually staying true to the spam uploads, here is this 'wonderful' piece that I made earlier than the Sabo piece. I said this on my other platforms, but this was one I did as an experiment for both a sticker design, as well as coloring the line art. Needless to say, I absolutely hate this abomination of a piece. (But, I think that's just what comes with the gig of being an artist. You experiment, and 99% of them you hate before finding one you actually like, lol)

Upcoming art + New additional OP oc fun!

Hey, my peeps! So, I do want to really quick make up a small heads up for all of you. Long story short: what art I HAVE posted here hasn't actually scratched the surface of what I have to post still both here and on all of my other platforms (and because I'm going away from IG as a whole, I have tried branching out on different platforms in hopes of trying to find a way to make my content available to everyone.) Soo, my point being, I do apologize for the spam of art I've been putting out recently. I'm still working on the comic with Bernice and Thatch, but the problem is that between all of the posting, as well as the streaming schedule I'm trying to keep and the other things I do outside of art, I've had to kind of sacrifice my time for one thing over another, lol. At the very least, I'm glad I'm actually dedicating my time to do this now because I've gotten pretty tired of posting everything one different platforms and then forgot where I posted it all, lol. I do want to also give you guys a heads up: I Will be opening a Q n A for all of my OP ocs here pretty soon, but first I have to get all of the old stuff put out first. I will also be working on putting things out for commissions here pretty soon since I actually have a pause in my student loans and want to try and pay them off ASAP. So, the sooner I can get them out of the way, the more I can actually work on saving up and focusing on my other goals, lol. In other news: I've about finished the Thatch zine I found a few months ago. I've been reading on it hit and miss, but I've finally gotten to the last story. (Ngl, I didn't know zines were a things, but I think it'd be fun to do one for another character or a separate one for him. Especially since I also write outside of art :D) .....Yes, this is me openly admitting to anyone that was thinking about making one, you can recruit me XD Anyways, I came on here to give you all that bit of a heads up. Again today, there will probably be quite a bit more older art that I post up on here. The descriptions will actually be the same as they are on other platforms plainly and simply to save time. So if you follow me on them, I do apologize if you're re-reading something I typed, lol.

Finally, the last part to the group!

We’ve got our favorite worry wart- and bartender- Tree. Ironically enough, I gave Tree his name for a few reasons. Number one: a lot of the medical field in One piece is usually seen using different plants and such to make medicine, the same goes for a lot of different drinks. And two, because of how trees in a forest actually take care of one another. A lot of the bigger trees will use their root systems to bring nutrients down to saplings in order to help them grow. A lot like Tree and how he consoles a lot of the crew. As it’s said, Tree was a bartender before becoming a medic for the crew, so a lot of the knowledge he learned in his time of serving people is things he passes down to the rest of the crew. When Tree joined the crew, he already had a missing arm. He actually had lost it after a bar fight between two pirate crews had broken out and he wasn’t able to stop them from getting too rowdy. It’s also what started him down the path of becoming a medic. Since his boss was very strict and refused to let his employees leave for any reason, he had to figure out how to patch up the place where his arm was cut off just so he could finish out his shift. And yes, he immediately quit as soon as his shift was done. Unfortunately, Tree was right handed, and because he lost his right hand, he had to learn how to do everything all over again with his left hand. He still struggles a lot with simple tasks like writing or sometimes even fixing his hair, but when it comes to medicinal needs and drinks, he still shines regardless of the missing arm. A lot of the time, the poor guy has to deal with hearing hand jokes from the crew which has led him to question his decision to join once or twice. But in the end, he never regretted it. At the time of him joining, Tree was 36.

Ok, This is- again, hopefully- part six. There is only one more part after this, and then I'm done, I swear! I know that I haven’t really made mention of him in everyone else's info so far, but up next is Dolion. Dolion is actually a very peculiar member of the crew. Being the swordsman, he actually is the only member of the crew with a higher position that physically went searching Lee’s crew out. I’ve also slacked on mentioning this, but a lot of the names on Lee’s crew have meanings. (I think the biggest thing people tend to overlook with Lee’s crew info is the fact that the crew’s name is the actual translation of Lee’s name. In other words, Lee’s name translates to ‘meadow’, hence the name ‘the Meadow Pirates’.) For Dolion, his name is a Greek translation of ‘liar’ or ‘to lie’. Because of his outfit, Dolion gave the crew a scare the first time they met. Because they met during a more foggy season, Kimchi, Lee, Ahiru, and Shiro all thought that he was the Grim Reaper. The poor things were scared straight for a good hour. His reasoning for why he demanded to join is complicated, actually. Wonton and Noko were both suspicious of him at first and believed that he had very similar goals of the World Government. They believed that he only wanted to travel with Lee until he could get intel about the One Piece and then he’d be splitting. However, he told them that his reasoning for joining was simply because he saw potential with the crew and wanted to give them proper backup since they were lacking any real muscle. His real reasoning was for two things. Firstly, he saw a lot of his younger self in Lee. Someone that was so quiet and wanted to do good for the world, yet was so quick to be stepped on. And secondly, because she reminded him a lot of his older sister as well in the way she could influence people to completely diffuse their quarrels. Because of things in his own life that led to him losing his sister, he saw joining Lee’s crew as a way to repay his sister’s kindness back. At the time of joining her crew, Dolian was 52.

Part five of the crew...hopefully- It seems only fitting to talk about Noko next. Noko is the first mate of the Meadow Pirates and- at one point- was head over heels for Lee. While Lee never picked up on it, her brother had. Normally, though, when her brother would catch men trying to hit on his sister, he’d actually run them off. But because Noko’s intentions have been nothing but kind towards her and her brother, and because he had been in her brother’s crew for a couple of years, he trusted Noko enough to actually try and get closer to Lee if she’d allow him to. This was actually a lot of the reason as to why he had gone with Lee when she had set out on her own in the first place. Of course, he never really got the chance to confess any of his feelings to her, but he never seemed all too bothered by it. While being a part of the crew- or Lee’s parents’ fleet- Noko never specified their age. Tree (the crew’s medic) actually deducted his age to be right around Lee’s age. Somewhere between 24 and 26. A fun fact about Noko: his outfits are adaptable to any kind of weather. While he does have an abundance of brightly colored clothing, all of his vests and pants have zippers at the ends of them. Yes, this man has zip-on sleeves and pants. In his own words, ‘the weather in the Grand Line is unpredictable, you have to be ready for a wardrobe change at the drop of a dime if you want to stay healthy.’ He is actually the biggest sweetheart on the crew as well. When there’s uncharted islands they end up at, or ones that seem very unfriendly to pirates, he usually will be the first to volunteer to scout the island for the safety of the others. (And I do have to say this: he liked Lee. He was never over the moon for her Like Sanji’s schtick with women and when he’d first see them. (So no nose bleed or embarrassing himself, lol.) However, he was a lot kinder to her like Sanji is to women and usually would hold doors for her/ keep her safe during battles.

...I lost count of how many parts this is already XD I think it's Part four? Key word there: THINK. I don't actually remember, lol! Anyways, while we're on the subject of hot heads, let me really quickly cover the crew's weaponry managers, Ahiru and Shiro. The two are twins, and just as you'd expect from them, they are always at one another's throats. Fun fact about their outfits: the both of them dress in accordance to what the other absolutely HATES, lol. (So, the unbuttoned shirt (he purposely leaves unbuttoned), short mess hair, and jewelry that Ahiru wears are things Shiro hates, and the messy/more girly hair styles/ letting his hair grow out, sleeveless turtleneck, and the bags of money Shiro wears on his waist are things Ahiru hates.) These two were actually 22 at the time of joining her crew...ok, they actually didn't join her crew. These two, along with Noko, were actually members of her brother's crew. But after she decided to set out on her own, her brother traded them three for three members on her existing crew. And let me tell you, when I say these two threw the BIGGEST fit because they were going to have a girl as their captain. Rest assured, though, they had good relations with her, so they unwillingly went along with her just to...you know...make sure she wouldn't get hurt...yeah, that was it. Another fun fact: these two were actually going to be giants on the crew, but I decided to just go with the idea of making them normal sized.

Part three of the concept designs :3 Up next on the roster is the crew's favorite giant man, Woton. (Though, on days he can quickly be considered a gentle giant...even if he won't admit it, lol.) Woton is actually an ex-marine, but is the crew's shipwright. At the time that he was originally taken into consideration but the crew to join them, he was actually trying to hunt them down. When Lee originally parted from her brother's crew, he tried to hunt them down in order to kill them. However, the reason he couldn't pull himself to was due to the fact that they decided to help him, nor did they ever try to fight his own men while trying to get away. The second time that they had an encounter was at the next island that they had docked at. Somehow, Woton's crew got mutilated by another pirate fleet, and most of the surviving men had sustained severe injuries. Lee's crew tried helping the best they could- and had even gone as far as to convincing the island's doctors to teach them what to do to help. During that time, Woton decided to interrogate Lee about any potential knowledge she had of the One Piece or affiliations with Gol Roger himself, yet after coming up short handed from what the World Government told him, he quickly came to the conclusion that she was innocent of their claims. In return for helping him and his men, he offered to repair the damage that they had done to her ship, resigned his position in the Marines, and ended up joining Lee's crew. Now, while this man does have a short temper on days, he can be just as patient. his favorite pass times include looking after Kimchi (and willow while she was a part of the crew)- though, it seems more like he was involuntarily assigned that job- managing the crew's finances, and collecting rare coins and gems...what, a man can have his hobbies, can't he? At the time of joining, Woton was 28. He is also the only member of the crew to have devil fruit powers.

Here's part two for the concept designs! Up next we have Kimchi! (Or seagull boy as most of the crew nicknamed him.) You would think with a group of adults, at least one of them would be the navigator? But actually, no. This little rascal is the crew's navigator. While most people have to use a log pose, surprisingly Kimchi has a strong intuition and can usually lead the crew where they need to be without using a compass or map. None of the crew ever could figure out how he was able to navigate the sea, but according to his own account, he had been on the sea for three years alone before they found him. And speaking of finding, that's actually a funny story. At the time that they found him, Kimchi was on a makeshift raft in the middle of the ocean. The only reason they had ever taken him aboard was due to the fact that he was trying to catch a seagull to eat- hence the nickname 'seagull boy'. At the time that they found him, Kimchi was 11. This boy is an absolute riot to be around. He takes his role as a pirate 'very' seriously and will refuse to spill the beans about anything...unless, you know, you bribe him with a snickerdoodle or cinnamon roll. (or any cinnamon sweets for that matter-) Most of the time, just to mess with Woton or Ahiru and Shiro, Kimchi will usually take their belongings and hide them under his 'wizard hat' just to cause trouble at times...yes, the giant safety cone he has on is a wizard hat to him, do not try to reason with the boy, lol. The two little plush he has in the front pocket of his outfit are gifts from both Lee and Willow. While he may not say it, they do mean the world to him. (But he can't let people go thinking he enjoys something from two icky girls, now can he?)

Ok, soooo, I'm gonna have to break this down into a multitude of parts, lol, so please bear with me here. Basically, the next few parts that I am going to slightly be spam posting out are all concept designs of members of Lee's old crew, the Meadow pirates. However, because the descriptions of each member is too long, I have to break their info up into individual posts. (I tried making a master post on them, I'm sorry in advanced ;-;) Sooo, getting right into things, we'll start with Willow (or Kadie as her concept image lists). So, Willow was never really an official member of the Meadow Pirates (the name of Lee's original crew). A lot of the reason for this was because Lee would not accept her as a member of the crew. (Aka, she really wanted to, but Noko had told her it was for the best to find someone on another island to take care of Willow instead in order to assure her safety.) While she did sail with them for a few months prior to what happened to them, she eventually was left with an elderly woman who was glad to have a kid to treat as her own grandchild. A lot of the reason Willow was on her own was due to relations her home island people had with Marines. For some reason, the Marines were very crooked and usually taxed the residents of the island amounts of money. And if they couldn't pay, they were usually the first to be pushed out to protect the marines from pirates instead of the other way around. Willows parents actually tried to start a rebellion to try and run the Marines off, but unfortunately both were killed in the process. And due to Willow being their daughter, most of the island people were afraid to take her in/ couldn't afford it, leaving her neglected by both the Marines and civilians. Lee's crew decided that they would take her to at least give her a temporary home until they could find her a proper place to live. At the time of being apart of Lee's crew, Willow was eight.

Hello again! Are you peeps (hopefully not) tired of me posting out art? Because I still have quite a bit of art that I need to upload to all of my platforms, and this is the next target for me, lol. Well, starting off what is going to probably be another day filled with art posts, we have this cute piece! I actually finished this one a couple of months ago after hitting 100 followers on Instagram. This originally was going to be a two part drawing challenge. But because of issues with IG, I no longer post on there. The premise of this was a DTIYS kind of thing, although it was going to cater more towards each person. Basically, the first part of the challenge was going to be draw a character with both a zodiac AND mbti type that would get along with your zodiac and mbti type (so kind of like a more accurate soulmate/best friends kind of thing) And because I call my followers 'peeps', the first part of the challenge for the 100 followers was supposed to be like this. You draw a character you'd get along with according to both, and where you'd be drawing yourself in the second half, you put a duck of some kind there. For obvious reasons, the second half of the challenge never came out, but to be honest, I really like how this one turned out. Especially, too, since Fishman Island is one of my favorite arcs (I dunno why so many people trach on it. It's really good. Plus, look at the bright colors used in the scenery, character design, everything! It's so sad that a lot of people hate on it ;v; )

If I haven't made it blatantly known before, I actually have a multitude of art style at my disposal. So if my hands will not cooperate with the one for the day, I usually can switch to one of the others. This one is one of my more cartoony/simplified versions. (I will be drawing Ivankov one day, or even just going in and coloring the slide in this one because the drawing of them here is just *Chef's kiss* My art style did them justice here, and I couldn't love it more. This doesn't actually happen in her info, But Ivankov and Sabo both give her a hard time for going between missions and visiting Whitebeards crew frequently. (Also, because I don't like the idea that he's actually gone, this is in an AU where Thatch does survive, but these two goons just give her a hard time and make her worry for nothing, lol.)

I can't believe that I have this posted EVERYWHERE, and even have this sat as my profile picture here, but never made an official post on it! :0 Well, better late than never I guess, lol. Anyways, jumping right in, this little gremlin right here is Bernice. While she made look like she's sweet and cutesy and very she/nervous (which she really can be at times) she is actually a revolutionary and ally to Whitebeard's crew. You'll learn about her more as I post her introduction comic, but yeah. (Also, yes, eventually she does pick one group over the other, but not willingly. due to certain...circumstances, she actually resigns her position with one of the two and does try to game over someone over what happened. Not saying who she leaves or who she decides to take on, but it definitely isn't what you'd be expecting. Lol.) But yeah, Take this gremlin for now. Dudes, we need more oc with plain hair colors/brown hair colors and actually beauty blemishes. Ocs with brown hair are SEVERELY underrated, but ocs with multiple little moles/accurate freckles are even MORE disgustingly underrated. The same with female ocs with short hair- (This is my far cry for you peeps that have ocs with any of these things to tag me in them, lol. Or even just tag me in them in general, I need new artists to follow on here XD)

You guys are quickly going to know me as the crazy lady that simps for Heat and Thatch because, well....they're all I pretty much draw alongside my ocs, lol. But, that's ok. If we're going to have a fan base for these two, I'll be willing to single handedly supply fan art for them, lol. Anyways, continuing up yesterday's remarks of spamming art out, this was actually a piece I did last year for Christmas. I honestly do like how the colors turned out on this one. And I didn't really get to explain it in a whole lot of context when I posted it, so I will here: In a lot of the fanart that I post on Lee (my sweet bean that's in this post) most of the time she'll be drawing really upset/concerned or pretty much sleeping. In her info that I have posted up on Wattpad, I do explain it a bit, but pretty much she had nightmares about how she parted from her last crew (don't want to spoil what happens if you'd like to go read up on her-) and usually when she's around Heat, she pretty much is comfortable and feels safe enough to relax, hence the reason she usually is sleeping when he's near. Obviously it's not all the time, but it is a fair bit of the time. Also, I do have to say this as well: Lee is basically mute. She does talk maybe once or twice every now and then, but beyond that, she writes to communicate. Unlike Corazon, her reasoning is actually a medical condition that does impair her vocal cords. I will be putting out more art of these two because (HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN'S HAIR AND THE WAY I USUALLY DOODLE HIM?! IT'S SO FUN- Plus, Lee is my first and favorite oc, and I will never stop drawing her <3)

As promised, I have started to go down the rabbit hole of spam art I will be putting out for the next few hours or so. As I said in my heads up, I wanted to try and get all of my platforms up to date and evened out with all of the art that I have stock piled from my other social media accounts. And with the amount of art that I have, it will most likely come up as spam. Anyways, this lovely piece. This is actually two years old now. The last date I have of this piece was back in 2022. I actually have a speedpaint of this up on my YouTube channel. As you can clearly tell with my art, and with as much as I draw Sabo, Ace, and Luffy, my art style of him will have updated dramatically. Se he no longer has a baby face like he does here, lol. Unfortunately, I don't have the save file for this in Clip Studio Paint anymore, so I can't actually go back in and fix anything on this...however, I can redraw it in the near future hopefully! I really loved how the colors turned out on this >w< Here's the link to the speedpaint for anyone that wanted top go see that-: Sabo SpeedPaint

As you can tell, this is the first pager to my one of my OP ocs, lol. Fun fact about this little gem: I've been sitting on Page one for a couple of months now, and as you'll tell by the next page, uhhh....my art actually hit an upgrade at some point? Dunno when, but my proportions are slowly getting there, lol. (Imagine having your character introduced to their own storyline by being taken down by sea stone, lol.) Anyways, here's the translation of the comic for those of you that aren't able to read my handwriting/ it doesn't show up well: 1. "I swear, if Ace broke in again last night, I'm gonna..." 2. "Aha! I knew he was the one taking my cookies!" 3. "Well I'll be, it really isn't Ace...guess I'll have to give him an apology tomorrow." 4. "But then, if it's not him..." 5. "Then who is this?"

So... Look... I know it will never happen.... but...

Megahouse? Ol' buddy, ol' pal?

🥺🤲🏻

For me? Please? Love you long time 😗🫶🏻

You know I would drop big money for this man 🥹

MY HEART WITH THISSSS- IT'S SO CUTE!!

Once again... I know my love won't get one of the Megahouse Nyan kitties..... 🥹 So I drew my own 🥖💛

A Proper Introduction

This has been up for a while, so allow me to actually shorten this a bit now XD-

Hi! If you don't know me, please just address me as Ducky! Some of the things you'll quickly find out if you stick around on my little piece of the internet (I call it the duck pond-) is that I cosplay, do art (I went to college for animation, but I do tend to draw very slowly at times, lol-) and write. I also stream every Friday, or at least try to. I do have things that do get in the way of my regular posting schedules, so I do apologize if I go weeks on end without streaming or posting gameplay-

For the most part, I do tend to do a lot of art for One Piece. HOWEVER, there are certain fandoms that I will occasionally make art for... unless I'm just posting vent art of some kind. Which is rare, but I do every now and then. (Also, you will catch me making and posting art of my oc x cc shippings because...why not? FREE WILL EXISTS FOR A REASON, SHUSH-) Uhhh...other things to know for fun because why not? :D -I go by she/her -I'm 22, but VERY awkward with talking to everyone -I'm a Gemini! -INFJ with a 9w1 enneagram :3 -I am ALWAYS looking for peeps to do art/cosplay collabs with! So don't be afraid to reach out at anytime to ask to do one! ^v^ -The anxiety levels are over 9,000 (Hence the reason it might feel like I'm ignoring you or most people in general. I just have a hard time with talking to people, but I'm trying to work on it!) -HUGE card and coin collector. I mostly collect One Piece cards, but...have you seen Bisai's art for the different sets? Their art is so pretty!! >w< So, I actually collect to appreciate the art, lol (And am currently looking to try and find someone that could help me learn how to play the game-) -Favorite voice actor is Ian Sinclair. (He does a lot of cool roles :3) -Top five One Piece Characters (In no real order): Thatch, Corazon, Heat, Killer, and Fukaboshi (The rest of Whitebeard's crew is right behind them, lol-) -Oddly enough, I've come to realize that most of my favorite characters over all of the anime and games I'm in are ENFJs, and I don't know how it keeps happening XD Uhhhh...Oh, right! Things to know about my ocs: -Regarding any of my ocs, you are ABSOLUTELY allowed to make fan art for them! I just ask that you tag me in it so that I can reblog it (You better believe I'm going to treat my page like a fridge, AND IT'S BIG ENOUGH TO DISPLAY ALL OF IT!) -All of my current ocs that have completed wikis are posted up on my Wattpad account, so you can go view all of the information on them there. But please do be warned, when I typed their info up in their original documents, a lot of them stretched to about 42 pages? Something like that? So do be warned that you'll be reading for a long while, lol. -My current oc x cc pairings are for One piece only atm. (I'm currently working out a Mouthwashing oc because that game has me in such a bad chokehold currently, it's not even funny XD) Those pairings are: Thatch and Bernice, Heat and Lee, and Rakuyo and Pandora (Tonta is also there, but he's Pandora's son, so...yeah-) -My ask box can be for any of my ocs, or even drawing suggestions. I'm open to anything! :3

And finally...fandoms I'm in! -Hetalia (...this show has had me in a death grip since 2010, shush-) -Creepypasta -Demon Slayer (We can be friends or enemies depending on your views of Gyomei >:3) -Jojo's Bizarre Adventure -Alice in the Country of Hearts (I FEEL LIKE THE VILLAGE CRAZY LADY BEING THE ONLY ONE THAT STILL LOVES THIS FANDOM, PLEASE, IT'S SO GOOD, BLOW IT UP-) -Villainous (And I have to clarify: Cartoon Network Villainous, Not Disney Villainous-) -Tokyo Debunkers -Hazbin Hotel (I have loved the concept since the pilot episode released, though I don't really talk about it that much. Apparently the fandom has a bad rep? Dunno how, I guess I just haven't dipped my toes into the fandom that far yet-) -Obey Me! That's not my Neighbor -The Arcana: Visual Novel -Fnaf: Security Breach -Naruto -My Hero Academia (Again, another fandom that has a bad rep, but I personally just don't mingle with others. AND BEFORE YOU ASK, no, I don't really like a lot of the popular characters. Shoji is actually my favorite out of the whole fandom (What? I like a lot of the roles that Ian Sinclair voices, ok!) -Fire Force (ANOTHER UNDERRATED FANDOM!!) -Mouthwashing (HAVE YOU SEEN THE CHARACTER DESIGN LORE FOR THIS GAME?! And with you peeps knowing me, I'm a HUIGE sucker when it comes to intricate details for character designing!! (I think my oc wikis and their 50 paged documents speak for themselves on that, lol-)) Please be patient, I'm currently working on a chapter directory for Appraise Love since the chapters are really spread out in comparison to a lot of my projects- (Updated as of 2/27/25)

I know that I have uploaded this to YouTube already, but let me tell you. When I say this is by far the greatest thing that I have made so far this year...I mean that with every fiber in my being XD I think the thing that sells it for me is the fact that on every platform that I have uploaded this to, Luffy's closeup is the Thumbnail image for it, and I am living for it, lol! I'll probably be trying to post every other day or once a week. Something like that. As of currently, I am trying to figure out a good schedule for streaming as well as posting my art, so yeah. It might be inconsistent upload times for the time being, lol.

Guess who finally made her way to Tumblr? :D

Yup, that's right! I finally caved in and made a Tumblr account. And after doing some research into here, it does look like I can actually make this account a mixing pot of all of my interests! So, here on this account, you'll be getting the following content!: -POTENTIALLY a few snippets of my livestreams
