show us your ocs! yap about your ocs! i love seeing peoples ocs, and your art styles really cool so i just know the designs eat
MY LITTLE GUYSSSSSS!!!!!!! this is the only updated drawing i have of all of them its just a doodle but theyre here!!! i very quickly colored this so you could properly see them lol
yapping session under cut
from left to right we have ilan, rankis, talx, turtle, jakach (jah-ka-kuh), nicholas, quack, selene, vera, and aaron
ilan ilan ilan!!!! you cant see her pink eyelashes very well here so have this old doodle
rankis my beloved. hes so stupid <3 he’s the best actually, he hates cops and wears white pants into battle cause hes so extra
talx!!! he’s mute and uses sign language btw! he’s a TALL BOY, 6’5! hes the silliest <3 i only have this doodle bc i updated his design and everything else is outdated ₍₍ (̨̡ ‾᷄ᗣ‾᷅ )̧̢ ₎₎
unfortunately for turtle her art is too old for me to want to share. im sorry turtle. shes cool as fuck too, she fights with sound and carries a boombox purse. i need to draw her once hermit may is over.
jakach is a little impy guy <3 he’s very electric, like an eel. hes very proud of his outfit. hes a proper little gentleman with that suit vest. he very despeeately does not want people to be scared of him. hes best friends with selene and quack. i think about my ocs more than i draw them i also need to draw him more (i keep tweaking his design its my fault lol)
NICHOLAS STRATT. nich for short, spelled n-i-c-h at his insistence. hes a bastard. i love him. his morals are terribly compromised but its not completely his fault so he can be fixed. quack is determined to get him to fix himself. speaking of quack i will go on forever about their relationship (its platonic for clarity lol, nich is 20 years older than her) if asked to. they are THE rivals/friends of all time. he occupies so much of my brain space its embarrassing
QUACK MY BELOVED. she was the first, shes been bouncing in my head since i was twelve. quack is but a simple human trying to fight authoritarianism in a world of magic. shes doing better than most actually. she is very devoted to her craft of bullying nich until he changes his ways. its going. she is in every single one of my notebooks somewhere
like any good artist i have too many aus for my characters so theres mostly tma au doodles in here cause theyre the most recent lmao. archivist quack <3
SELENEEEEEEE SHES SO PRETTY IM SCARED TO DRAW HER. same with ilan actually. anyways selene is a special kinda mage she gets her spells from a book rather than naturally like rankis or talx. she manipulates gravity and casts spells with her voice <3 i love her
vera!! i also just redesigned her shes very fun. shes a fae, shes also a monster like jakach. unlike him tho she doesnt care that people find her scary. she enjoys watching the chaos of her friends/teammates while poor selene and aaron have to do damage control
and finally aaron. hes so tired. so sick of his employees shit. how is he supposed to fight in a war when the dumb fucks he employed keep blowing up cities? hes trying his best. and is also on the run for breaking necromancy law. its a whole thing. he’s got prosthetic legs that he likes to take off and joke that hes skipping leg day. quack will not stop bothering him but unfortunately hes too fond to do anything about it. hes totally not fond of his employees why would you say that
thats themmmm!!!! sorry this is so long lol but if you like them yay!!! if you ask me about them again i will implode with happiness and yap forever and ever. tumblr please dont break
mannn hermit a day may is coming up and im having an art style crisisss
my ass NEEDS to start doing art studies. now- time to learn how to do an art study.
2025 will be my art year!! <- liar
i got an 83 💪 i fell asleep during the exam and still passed 💪 thank god for that curve
*vomits and dies* welp cant wait to fail my exam tomorrow 👍💪
*vomits and dies* welp cant wait to fail my exam tomorrow 👍💪
the amount of wips i have is atrocious. what do you mean i cant just will them into completion? smh
sorry im still insane about wlsmp but like so many of the life series “traditions” were broken this season and i think thats just so interesting.
the canary curse is officially broken, no more excuses no more “oh well its been passed on- oh its this doesnt actually count or” yeah no none of that- jimmy is a beast and he did so well he deserves credit for his skills 😤 he got 12th out of 18 so try and canary curse that my boy is a rockstar 😤
most of the fanon interpretation of watcher!grian is him hiding it which was kinda supported by the fact that grian being the admin of the past life series didnt really matter bc he kinda was on everyone’s level- but wild life? he was IN CONTROL. he activated the wild cards he called the end of the sessions he KNEW THINGS other people didnt and oh man thats fucking tasty its refreshing! grian was such a character this season- he fully leaned into the admin position (and for us we see it as him leaning in to the watcher aspect) and people were commenting on it? they knew he knew things when previously it just wasnt mentioned by anyone. im insane about this i love watcher!grian that fully accepts who he is and uses his powers for chaos and fun
the TEAMS- the teams this season were incredibly interesting. we had the bamboozlers who everyone assumed were gonna all go out first bc they were all bad at the game and accident prone and considering the fact that the very gameplay was all out of wack yeah it was kinda expected that the clumsy players would slip up first- but they didnt! they ALL made it to the finale. the four Gs- everyone was making jokes about how they were forcing themselves to stay together and how they were gonna fall apart and it was gonna be so toxic but they were one of the strongest alliances besides gem and joel- and even bigb who betrayed cleo still kinda stayed apart of the team- which speaking of bigb he was AMAZING this season with the creaking bit he had going but also he socialized more and instead of being a total loner he tried being part of the four Gs and yknow what i’ll take it. and the fanart of him skyrocketed this season so bonus points! but yeah the four Gs, destined to fall apart stayed together to the very end and im so happy they beat the divorce allegations. JOEL AND GEM. these two. these two were AMAZING. they truly played to the game- they didnt take things too seriously, they had fun- and most importantly they stayed together. i think what im trying to say here is that the teams this season were just so much fun to watch and it didnt feel like they were held together with tape and glue and i love that. the chemistry was top notch. i just started rambling here but i loved them!! the tuff guys, renwood, and the spanners (???) were phenomenal as well but we already knew those guys have great chemistry with each other. i definitely lost my point here oops.
last thing- wild life was so fun and it feels like the shift in the life series has settled and now everyone is just having fun and i think thats amazing for them. the shift definitely started with secret life- thats where the canary curse was broken, thats where scar won against all odds (the no regen? and scar winning? impossible- but it happened), where grian finally died an honorable death (i say this bc all of his deaths previously he’d been unhappy with- yknow the i dont feel good with scar, dying in a frenzy, dying to a warden, falling to his death- but secret life? he died trying to win a 3v1 and legitimately could have won. if gem hadnt been so high in hearts he definitely could have survived), and grian being the admin was actually relevant bc he knew things others didnt (and that scene where the end portal went off in the court house god that was good food for the watcher!grian fans) where the mechanism of the series was fun and chill and not just about killing, and of course- the tone of the series was fun and wholesome rather than completely hostile like the other 4. secret life was a nice transition to wild life and im so happy that the lifers seem to be having so much fun now.
IN SHORT. i loved wild life! i love how different it is from the other series. and im so glad that the lifers are having fun and leaning in to the insanity of it all. amazing. and this was just supposed to be a little paragraph about the broken traditions but i started rambling. my bad lol.
ALSO JOEL WON! the silliest, wildest man won! isnt that fitting?
im legitimately still shaking from that finale that was stressful that was amazing holy shit my heart is racing my hands are shaking that was actually insane
*spoilers*
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO JOELLLLL YEAHHHHHH I WAS ROOTING FOR HIM AND GEM THE WHOLE TIME YEAHHHHHH OH THATS AMAZING IM SO HAPPY FOR HIM YEAHHHHHH!!!!!
why is it that without fail the minute im ready to go to sleep im hit with the sudden urge to be awake and create
oh god my heart my heart im gonna have to watch the new life series episodes when im home alone because i was literally screaming. the wildcard this session. oh god
hey Remy, my name is also Remi (just with a y)
r u good at cooking? If so, have u considered forgoing the trench coat for a chefs coat and hat and becoming Linguini and Remy from Ratatouille?
hi remi! yes i am good at cooking- you might want to check under your hat tonight ;)
holy shit its almost october- ugh if i didnt get so embarrassingly easily burnt out i’d do an art challenge or something idk
fuck becoming good at drawing i want to be ABLE to draw whenever
i keep having to remind myself this is my last year of high school and hopefully the last time i’ll have to mentally prepare myself to deal with some asshole’s bullshit over a fucking extracurricular
im in such denial
im curious what all characters will you do art of
im not quite sure what you mean- but characters i will do fanart of are just the ones in the fandoms im in. so hermitcraft/life series/ that group of cc’s in general are what im currently fixated on :)
i am multifandom tho, i should probably put those in my bio lol
(also sorry if this is not what you meant)
Well then... since we got a anti Gem.... anti pearl is next
oh man she was much harder to design than anti gem. pearl doesnt really shy away from any styles, so i went with a more classic “evil twin” vibe. she changes her outfit to match pearl, so i drew a design for classic anti pearl and season 10 anti pearl
a common theme for pearl is that she likes to help her fellow hermits with services, so anti pearl ofc would do the opposite! if pearl is a postmaster who delivers sweet messages, than anti pearl is a postmaster who delivers harmful messages
as you can see, i tried going for an eclipse theme, though it translated more to a “dark version” of pearl’s actual skins- which inspired the whole anti pearl matches pearl thing
five am pearl definitely made this a challenge bc she’s kinda designed like a helsknight/evil xisuma version of pearl, and i didnt want the design to look too similar so i had to keep trying new things until i settled on her gimmick. the black sclera is just bc its fun, and it separates her from 5am pearl :)
anti gem looks like she would punch a hole in someone's chest
oh absolutely
so we agree hels pearl is just 5 am pearl but permanently like that
personality wise- absolutely. design wise- i like to think anti pearl wears matching outfits with pearl but edgier. she was very upset when pearl pulled out the season 8 skin lol
is anti gem evil like the other hels
i feel like anti gem is like if she took geminislay too far, like its no longer a cute gag its a shes out to get you. shes like a cryptid to me. shes edgy. gem thinks shes cringe.
in short yes shes evil, but like any good villain she has a weakness. its cute things. when she even glances at a flower she is immediately sent back to the shadow realm
does the hels gem have a name ive heard people use the name AiresEva after her cam account but i wonder what you would use
… anti gem…
but actually aries is a cool name for hels gem- i love that a lot actually. ooo im inspired now. i might have to come back to aries gem
my mother is very supportive of my art, in fact she keeps asking me when i’m going to animate my dream project. i tell her every time that i can’t animate a whole show by myself.
this led to her asking about indie animation studios, i told her about spindlehorse and glitch. she asked to see examples. and. my poor conservative mother. she was so funny about the helluva boss characters. “why is she sexy” mother. “i bet a man designed this”
lmao mom
before dungeon meshi i was a normal person
now i look at fish bait and think about eating it. i wonder if it would go well with fish eyeball. i bet if you sprinkle some shiny rocks on it it would add some nice crunch.
my brother convinced me to help pay for a crunchyroll subscription and fairy tail has taken over my life. curses.
does tumblr just not work sometimes??? like i posted art, checked the tags bc i wanna be sure i didnt mess up, its not there. and after rechecking and reposting multiple times it still doesnt work? bizarre. im going on record to say that i, remy, did the may 20th hermitaday prompt on time. tumblr explain yourself
doing the hermitaday challenge has both given me an uncontrollable creative brain that makes me want to draw all the time, but also a hand that hurts like a bitch
so for hermit-a-day may i’ve decided to watch one of xb crafted’s videos bc i know very little about him, and guys he’s so underrated. he’s so silly and his builds are so cute. watch xb guys, he deserves it.
i envy people that have the time to draw every day, like i swear some days i have so much shit to do that the most i can manage is a scribble. school sucks :(
