Reblogging here just to say this here <:3

POV: Pester has something to say to you

In light of what’s going on right now, please know things are going to be ok <:3 It looks very bad right now I know, but try to stand strong in light of everything going on. Stick by those who you care about and care about you, we’ll get through this storm together ❤️

[ferelbasta]

Omg yes I was wondering what happened! I’m so so sorry it’s taken this long to get back to you tho XC I checked yesterday and I was confused as to why your icon was an anon one. Yee! My gf and I have actually been constructing a huge AU story with Mckraken life as well as a story for Fumi/Katie getting the watch instead. We’re working on them via rps so most are already written down :3 we just need to write them in the formats of a proper fic than rp lol

I'm trying to explain to my friends that Chairman Mckraken is so interesting to me, but I'm AWFUL with words so UGH.

I wish we had more content on him because most of my opinion has to be extracted from the small bits that we get in canon. Or fanon/hcs. That too. I tend to like characters who are basically if the kniving joke villain was an actual threat and wELL. The alternate timeliness doesn't look fun (profuse sweating). He throws little puns in there and he's condescending af to anyone of no use to him 😭 he's terrible and perfect at the same time. I love him <3

I also just love that his redemption arc was implied, but all IN THE BACKGROUND. From 1-2 he got caught at some point I think. Maybe. I don't know the timeliness gets a little funky sometimes. And in 3, he's running not 1 but 2 restaurants to pay off a debt (again ??? I think so) and by 4, he's calmed down enough to where you can actually befriend!!! Yay!! Unfortunately there's low hope for Shadowside translation, but it's something!

I love to make up a little backstory for him about what might have caused his initial views, and what happened during his redemption. I want to see more interactions with Dr. Maddiman and maybe even Micchī since he might very worked with him due to the whole seal debacle. (If that's even the same Mitsumata to be fair).

In conclusion, MAKE SQUID CONTENT. THANK YOU AND GOODNIGHT.

A lil something for my gf @feltmanor <:3

[ferelbasta]

Kind of an old doodle I did for my gf buuuut she suggested I post it regardless .v.

Just a simple doodle of Leshy and the yellow cat c: ( who my gf has dubbed Mernaty )

[ferelbasta]

My gf @feltmanor and I recently beat the Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door remake and OMFG I WAS CRYING AT THE END FROM HOW MUCH I LOVED IT 🥺

Seriously I can’t believe this remake wasn’t made by fans, how much polish and detail there is and the quality of life updates! This easily became game of the year for my gf, and for me it reminded me just how much I adore a certain “freak” in a sheet, I’m talking about Doopliss uvu

I never had this game as a kid and only discovered the games when I was in my early teens, I discovered Doopliss when I found a comic about him being made over on deviantART, it was about him having partners of his own and going on his very own adventure! This ofc engrossed me and I read every page that was available at the time, sadly the artist behind this comic never finished it and hasn’t touched it in… so many years… I actually remember asking if I could continue it a few years after she stopped and yet she wanted to give it another try at making the comic… though nothing became of this… cut to now and I’ve fallen right back in love with this lil guy after encountering him in game and seeing all new art of him 🥹

I remember during the time I was really into paper Mario after playing super paper Mario and watching videos about it that I tried to take a crack at creating a story for Doopliss, I used at least two characters this person made for her old comic and added known characters from the PM world. I only ever made stand alone art pieces back then and never got into an actual story… until everything came flooding back when I played the remake of TTYD. I’m not going to go into detail on what this new adventure will be about but I’ll just say it incorporates some stuff from my old ideas and a few characters from that old comic I discovered ( I’m sure the artist wouldn’t mind that I’d use these old characters since the comic is abandoned to my knowledge but I’ll see if I can ask her first ).

NOW to these doodles! :’D (spoiler talk under the cut )

My gf actually requested me to draw some Doopliss doodles and ofc I happily obliged. It’s been literal years since I last drew this lil baby boy and just seeing him makes me so damn happy 🥹❤️ also this is the first time I’ve ever drawn Flurrie! Tbh I thought I’d fuck her up but I’m kinda happy with how she turned out c: Now since Doopliss does join Flurrie in the acting business in the end of the game I see the two start bonding over the years they work with each other. I see about five or so years passing by after the events of TTYD and I see Flurrie acting as a motherly figure to Doopliss, since I see him being rather young mentally, like around 14 to 15 years old, his bio age I got nothin on since idk how duplighosts age >>;; plus I got ideas for his parents and he hasn’t really seen/been with his real mom in a rather long time.. so I thought it’d be cute and sweet for Flurrie to do this <:3

( also that chicken doodle is a reference to this post )

[ferelbasta]

Calling all artists !!!

RB for sample size maybe? I’m very curious.

Could also apply to writers!

[ferelbasta]

“Stand by for validation…”

My gf made me draw this :Y

[ferelbasta]

Was feeling really off today since some rl stuff, so I decided to doodle some Yokai from memory and try to get the hang of my design for a Satori oc I have planned, though I wasn’t that happy with how he was turning out.. theeeeen I decided to look at some Japanese Macaque images to try and study how I should draw him later.

The images I used were found on google images btw

[ferelbasta]

Eh really a huge story but you probs get what I mean :Y

Ik these aren't canon to what we got from Lvl5 buuuuuut I have been working on a rather huge thing for Mckraken for many years now :3 Been working on and off of it with my gf and I'm working on getting bits and pieces posted ^^

I'm trying to explain to my friends that Chairman Mckraken is so interesting to me, but I'm AWFUL with words so UGH.

Here we have another (kinda) familiar face, Minister Squisker! I created this design for him years ago since Level5 has only ever shown off him as a redesign of Mckrakens monster form, and that never felt right to me, so I decided to give him an actual design :3 as well as a size chart. Now for a bit about him ->

Minister Squisker; as his name suggests, is a very important yokai in the royal court, he was also very close friends with the late Ancient Lord Enma, as well as his family being close with the Enma tribe in general. Squisker is a rather stern and rough sounding yokai but only ever is hard on others to try and bring the best out of them ( Mckraken being a good example), this has given him a reputation with outsiders as seemingly being a bit of a hard ass. Squisker has always been very supportive of his younger sister; Marina, especially when she decided to marry a yokai not of high society, he only cares for her and his extended families happiness.

Squisker does enjoy some down time surprisingly to most, when not hard at work he enjoys taking strolls around the palace, hanging out with either Ancient Enma ( usually involving drinks ) or being with Marina, Octavious and young Mckraken at their humble farmhouse a few town away. Squisker; while being a very supposedly open yokai, hates humans with a burning passion, no one, not even Marina or Ancient Enma, knows why the large squid has such a hatred for humans. The only soul who knows the reasoning is Squisker himself, which he had long forgotten until he was reminded one fateful night, one that he wishes he could forget.

Never thought I'd draw these two again!

If you aren't aware I made art of what I feel Mckrakens parents might look like/be, since I'm starting to get back into yokai watch I thought I might as well redo these twos first picture! Since I honestly didn't like how they looked after these years >>;; Gonna just put their old info here sinc they haven't changed -->

Marina is Squisker's younger sister, the do similarities show. She has a relaxed and calm demeanor but will become passionate about something if she takes great interest in said thing/event. Marina was always with her older brother growing up, both acting similar to best friends in ways.

Octavious's name comes from his "oblivious" nature, when in reality he actually is very observant. He too is very calm and relaxed but will jump into action when needed. His side of the family have feline genes due to his great grandfather being a bakéneko, this also explains his and Mckrakens cat like actions (and his folded ears).

I also decided to go into more of their lives since I never did so back then. Octavious's family is actually a long line of farmers believe it or not! While Marinas upbringing was rather lavish, Octavious had more humble beginnings. Shown here is Octavious starting to show young Mckraken the ropes of farming and planting crops, as well as Marina teaching him how to use kitchen tools, these come into play as Mckraken gets older since he is very skilled with cooking and such :3

What the dog doin?

Idk if anyone remembers from my last blog or over on twitter but I absolutely ADORE Jinmenken ( aka Manjimutt) with all my heart and HATE how the anime treated this pupper. He is my top favorite Yokai and biggest comfort character too, he literally means so much to me 🥺

It’s been a real long time since I last drew him so I decided to draw him a bit to get back used to drawing him again. I then decided to him with Fumika’s ( Katie’s ) dad since I actually have this huge AU where Fumi actually got the watch instead of Keita ( Nate ) and in the part of the story where she incounters Jinmenken, I see befriending him and after some more stuff happening he ends up at her house and her folks end up seeing him, but as a kinda “ugly” dog instead of a human thanks to a special collar for dog Yokai. It’s a lot to explain so I’ll ofc go into more detail later, but for now I can say that after Fumi explains that she “found” Jinmenken needing help, she decided to help the pup until her and her parents found his actual owner. The mom is fine with this but the dad just bonds with Jinmenken fast and the two become inseparable ^^;; Again there are details missing but I will explain better later <:3

But yeah! Just some really cute doodles of this adorable puppy 🥹

[ferelbasta]

Some more sketches! This time of two Yokai Watch OCs that have been on the back burner for quite awhile, just trying to figure them out. Who we have here are actually fan kids of two ships I really love, the first one is Roxanne, Agent X and Rongo Swirlls daughter, and the second is Oliver Kraken, Chairman Mckraken and Dr. Maddimans son.

I’ve had their designs brewing in my head for maaaaaany years by this point but atm I’ve been having big YW brain rot so I decided to attempt to get their designs down… at least their first draft. I’m sure something’s will change when I draw them more but their personalities are def set in stone :3

[ferelbasta]

I want to start out this post saying I LOVE farming games, so as a result of that you assume I’ve played Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons growing up, and you’d be right! Another thing I love is biology and speculative biology/evolution/zoology etc… basically I love and am fascinated by the natural world and its history.

That being said with the boom of farming games and just cozy games in general, I’ve become to be inspired to try and make a farming game myself but with a twist. It would be similar to old harvest moon games like 64/ Magical Melody but set in an alien world, where you play as a sophont alien being raising a farm (idk if livestock will be included but will think more on it) and I would like to have some supernatural/magical elements to it too. Just so it’s not just a farm game where you’re an alien from another world than a human :V

I have a lot of ideas for this concept but not the tools to do much with it atm. It’s still very much in its infancy so this is all I have to say right now .3.

Unknown creature in a dense forest

[ferelbasta]

Chasing The Sands

---------

If you were to ever pass through a thrift store, a library or some place that is rather old and/or of great importance somewhere in Pepperland, you might have come across two bizarre looking creatures surrounding instruments that measure time, weither that be a large clock, sundial, or more commonly even large decorated hourglass'. These two creatures are believed to either guard the flow of time, or are the embodiment of time itself, one represents the forward flow of time being the future, and the other represents the backward flow of time being the past. These two can sometimes very rarely be seen in visions by wielders of powerful magic, or priests, flitting through what is presumed to be the Sea of Time or some other void of space. There are no recent records of these beasts ever contacting anyone outside of certain fields... but some say if you have the right reason in mind, you might be paid a visit via a vision.

OK um wow! this!... shouldn't have taken as long as it did, like this painting took years to get done, meaning I started it years ago but then forgot about it and only recently dove back into it with new meaning. I've been trying to get into painting for a long time now since it's a form of art that has intimidated me for many years, and I've wanted to delve into making digital paintings but I never really knew where to start, until I got the newest version of photoshop and started messing around with the brushes at my disposal. I did start this in clip studio paint and ngl I'm happy I moved this to photoshop since the brush I found there helped me get a good grip on where to start my painting practice :) 

I want to make more paintings in the future but for now I hope you enjoy this one I finally finished ^^

Now for something rather old... from many years ago when I returned to my hyper fixation for the Beatles movie the Yellow Submarine :3

If you're new here you probably aren't aware that back in 2013 I became invested in this amazing film, and created aton of Blue Meanie OCs as well as many concepts and ideas for the world of Pepperland. I won't get into too much here but over on instagram I have been chatting with someone who currently loves the film as much as I do when I was younger, and she inspired me to look back at my archives and that resulted in finding this unfinished work. 

What is shown here are sketches of Chief, Max, and the many OCs I have created under the Major sub-species of Blue Meanie ( yes I AM going that deep into things ) and so far I only colored in two of my characters back then. I'm not sure why I never finished these but I'm now deciding to post these as is, I suspect I never finished these is because I liked the sketches too much to lineart them and the coloring didn't look that good with just the sketch.

Chief and Max aren't mine, everyone else here belong to me
