More Priamos art (under the cut) ✨ i simp for my own character way too hard, I made this back in July I think, just never posted it or anything

Fair warning, he don’t got a shirt, but he is wearing pants and he’s got a mini dragon form of himself on his shoulder ehe

Should I make a post about his lore? I wanna write it all out so I can just tag this post if anybody ever asks me about him, but

[silverag09]

Weee here’s some older art 🤌

[silverag09]

Just thinking out loud but this particular creature is so interesting to me. Why is it seemingly spirit-blue? What is with the inconsistent scales? Is this a living light creature, or a spirit of a light creature? What would it even require to have a spirit of a light creature?

We know creatures who die unnaturally leave remains (bones, or in the case of ancestors, husks). The only other spirit-like light creatures I can think of are the manta memories in Vault, but this one is definitely different from those. For one, you pass right through it. And secondly, it produces light for you to collect.

It also has four eyes similar to the krill eyes we've observed, but its face is rounder and it has less fins than krill have legs. But we also don't seem to know anything about this creature other than it inhabits Treasure Reef, is blue and spirit-like, gives light, and follows a certain path with no regard to you (as in, it doesn't respond to your presence in the way any other creature or spirit would).

The scales also seem so haphazard, and I wonder whether it's due to life stage or damage or what other explanations there could be.

I’ve done all of these I think atleast once except for reverb, it seems fun- I apologize if all I post for a while is void backgrounds with reverbed characters 😂

Funny OC trauma, goes from innocent little kid to a street rat to lab rat to these simultaneously ✨✨ his spirit is still tied to the real world, the creature his physical body was attached to is still ‘alive’ in a sense, so he’s stuck until that thing dies - unfortunately, it’s a man-made war machine that may or may not be unkillable, it’s yet to be seen— so his spirit is stuck trapped in the living world wreaking havoc with street lights and technology for shits n giggles cause he’s ✨bored✨

Off my last post: progress??

I have the tail of the cape very shoddily planned out

Now just for the bulk of the scarf 👌

Tips/advice is very, very welcome- I don’t make my own patterns very often and the last one I made, the sharp corners pinched pretty bad when I flipped it and it wasn’t the intended look, even if it actually worked out in favour of the design—

I might make a test out of scraps I have lying around or an old tshirt or something

[silverag09]

Why is it that I get the coolest, most detailed and intricate ideas for artworks or sewing projects right as I’m trying to sleep?? There’s this cosmetic in Sky- it’s a New Years item. It was from year of the dragon, it’s basically a black and gold oversized scarf and I’d love to make one for a costume irl and now - from probably 4-6am I’ve been lying awake thinking about patterns, stitches, decals and prop making methods all to make this thing that I don’t even have the money to make 😭 brain, why? I just wanted to get some sleep at a normal hour, why do you do this to me???

The offending cape in question:

The overall outfit I want to make with it but, once again, do not have the money yet to do so:

I am in agony. I’ve made a sky cosplay before, but it’s very simple - it’s literally just the base game black cape and the days of color cargo pants with a short white wig, kinda actually looks like the dr. Ratio hair one actually- and the chuckling scout mask I think. It was my dream outfit when I first started playing, the one I want to make now though is my main outfit, and the one I’ve turned into a proper OC

Anyways, brb for the next two hours while I sketch out the silly little sleep-preventing thoughts otherwise I’ll:

A) forget them by tomorrow

B) be entirely unable to function until I do,

OR

C) not be able to sleep tonight/today until I do

>:(

Sobbing 😂😭

NO!

*FURIOUSLY SHITS PANTS*

[silverag09]

Look at this little cursed mf I love him so much *insert that one image where it’s just somebody biting onto a thing and violently shaking it back and forth*

The pain of starting to lose weight as somebody who wears binders - suddenly those binders don’t fit no more cause your chest wasn’t as big as it used to be. Double edged sword honestly- like yay! They’re getting smaller! Shit, they’re getting smaller!

Two $40 binders I can’t barely use anymore :’D

Thanks for the encouragement re: sky's tournament in your recent post, it really means a lot. I personally really enjoy the games, especially the races (crab race and wingsuiting are my favorites), but getting crushed by team forest day after day does a number on one's spirit. It's really nice to scroll through tumblr and see people cheering us on, even though we've got no chance and everyone knows it. 4th place is still a place, hey?

THATS THE SPIRIT MY FRIEND!!! Never give up!!!!!! Have fun!!!!!!!

Glaze is out!

Tired of having your artwork used for AI training but find watermarks dismaying and ineffective?

Well check this out! Software that makes your Art look messed up to training AIs and unusable in a data set but nearly unchanged to human eyes.

I just learned about this. It's in Beta. Please read all the information before using.

5am rambling about Sky cause my sleep schedule is severely wack - includes personal headcannons about lore lmao- everything below the cut so you don’t get blasted with a billion words ✨

Heads up: this is not a fun silly Headcannon. It is

s a d.

You’ve been warned. There is a cute little doodle at the very bottom of this to make it up to anybody who reads this tho

This mainly pertains to moth players and Eden, I came up with this after watching a few folk’s own lore videos on their sky kid’s backstories and whatnot- imagine

Yknow all the moths you’ve adopted, guided through the world and befriended in the process? Once they enter Eden, that has the potential to determine their entire fate.

The moth’s who enter Eden, with or without your help, have to make it through. One way or another. Or, they don’t. They quit halfway through because they’re too afraid, or they don’t understand what they’re meant to do. Some manage to make it through Eden, but then think that’s the end of the game. No more, no seasons, no travelling spirits, no upcoming events, nothing.

I imagine the moths who never fully make it through Eden simply just.. die, in a sense. Their light, their soul, whatever you may call it, was not strong enough to withstand the storm and they simply perish and become one of the many statues trapped there, until you eventually come for your next run and free them.

Alternatively, the ones who make it out but quit shortly after - they were corrupted in some form by Eden - namely, the same power that may or may not have corrupted Resh - the Eden elder and/or king. I have my own theories about Resh too- but that’s for another time. They don’t continue, so their light/wings don’t grow stronger. Almost like an infection, they don’t have the strength to fight off the ‘virus’ (the corruption) as time passes, they remain stagnant and the corruption chips away at them until they ‘die’.

The sky kids who’ve fallen to corruption eventually return to either the wasteland or eden. Those who find themselves in the wasteland deteriorate slowly over time, transforming into crabs or simply dying, their bodies becoming seeds for dark plants to take root. Those who end up back in Eden aren’t so fortunate to have such a peaceful end. And I’m using the term peaceful very, very lightly.

Those who returned to Eden are back in the direct line of contamination from, as stated previously, the same power that corrupted Resh - their bodies rapidly deteriorate and give out on them, their remaining light unable to stay strong enough to stave off death. They don’t remain ‘dead’ for long though, the remains mutating into dark dragons or other beings of pure darkness. They wander aimlessly, trying to find any source of light in the hopes that they can relight the fire they lost, have the hope that - as minuscule as it may be - they can return to the lands of Sky and return to their normal life. The consciousness of the child who’s been mutated remains partially intact, that’s the only reason they’re still hunting down anything that gives off warmth - but they’re not aware of what they’ve become. All they know is that they’re cold, and that other sky kids run away from them no matter what they do.

In other words, the sky kids who don’t make it through are eternally trapped, until you provide them brief respite through freeing them during your weekly/monthly/etc runs. That’s why you see them in orbit sometimes. Those who can’t or refuse to continue perish, to put it very bluntly. I imagine after a certain length of time, their remaining consciousness fades entirely and all that’s left is a monster of darkness, wandering with nothing but subjecting others to the same fate as it fell to on its mind, taking out the envy, anger, and spite that got left behind on the poor souls it finds - those that have wandered where they should never have gone.

———————————————————

Ngl the only reason I came up was this is cause I wanted all the players who’ve quit at Eden, before/in/after, to have a purpose. It sounds bad when I put it like that but idk how else to put it— my old account, I started just before season of dreams started and I quit the same week cause I didn’t want to go through Eden, and I was unaware there was more to the game aside from “fly through pretty world, talk to old spirit looking things, die.” I returned to the game midway through season of remembrance, and I’m very glad I did. I don’t have a lot of headcannons for lore or anything like that, but this is one of them, and as sad as it is- I like it. I love the krill, I love the dark creatures and I love the light creatures too. I feel like the dark creatures don’t get enough love sometimes and I wanted to make something dedicated to them - and, again, it’s sad, but this makes me love them even more- even if I fell asleep by accident while playing that one time and got attacked by the krill and crabs so many times that I got sent to the pity room. Meh.

Anyways, here’s a doodle of my skykid and his buddies to make you less sad 👌

Wig styling is kinda fun but god my back doesn’t like me hunched over for 8 hours straight while I hyperfocus on getting a spikey piece to lie cleanly 😭

[silverag09]

Should I draw Aeon? He’s one of my newer sky kid ocs, based them off an outfit I’ve been wearing in-game for a few months now and I already gave him lore n stuff- just haven’t drawn them yet

The silly in question
