#Ceph is my Splatoon OC

[lunalaastra]

I forgot to share this (whoops)

So, it was the Grand Run in Splatoon 3 last weekend, and it was definitely the most fun I've had playing Splatoon (despite how stressful the mode is XD). Somehow, on a shift with randos, this happened:

200 Golden Eggs

Safe to say there was a surprisingly good amount of team coordination there (and it was likely just that I got carried; I may play Salmon Run less casually than all the rest of Splatoon ('cause I actually enjoy it) but I'm definitely no pro player)

Anyway, thank you so much to my teammates, you guys were awesome

It's almost Frosty Fest time! You know what that means? It's time for another splatfest drawing featuring Ceph!

For this Frosty Fest, I chose team Experiences, as you can see. Money and presents may bring you joy in the moment, but memories can bring you joy forever! That's what I think, at least.

Ceph, as someone who values the people close to him a lot, would also choose team Experiences. Making new memories with people he loves would certainly make him happiest!

Ceph's outfit for this fest is this somewhat warm and kinda formal outfit inspired by the ones that Deep Cut wear in both of the Frosty Fest artworks. Ceph's weapon of choice this time is the S-BLAST '91. It's the most camera-like weapon in Splatoon, and cameras are what you use to take pictures of your cherished experiences. The reason I chose the '91 is because it has a more wintery color scheme that matches the colors of Ceph's team better.

I don’t really talk about my Agents as people and not my dragon au (aside from them in my fics) but like......the honest truth is that I have not really drawn them much. And thus my mental image of them is.............well it’s certainly vague. 

But I drew them today! Aside from 3b that drawing is older I just never posted it lol. And Eight had a more concrete design for awhile but I had only drawn it the one time so oops here they all are. The Agents + Ilkani. Basically just all my Cephalopeople OCs aside from my Grizzco guy. Squidbeak party gang

As a heads up- I won't be able to donate for a long while. My funds are nearly depleted, and while I wish I could donate endlessly, I do have my own medical bills to take care of, as well as my other bills, and I need to start saving again as a result. I'm very sorry about this !!

i have decided smolt and tetra will not be in a relationship it wouldn't make sense anymore. they were in the og version of this story I forgot why but I changed something and now it doesn't make sense

actually I remember now it's bc I put tetra with the salmonids and huch when I reworked this. he was literally just some guy in the desert before this

actually SHE because tetra was originally more feminine and used she/her. and I think she was nb

idk what's going on with now tetras gender now actually I think I said it used he/it in a post but I genuinely forgot about it using it/its I thought he used only he/him but I like he/it so it's gonna stay

I gotta tell the original story of these splatoon ocs. some of them (cough ceph captain sunni and 8) date back to splat 2 and were named shit like TOAST and PANCAKE (those guys are now ceph and captain) so you can tell how good my storytelling skills were lmao

honestly this story wasnt the worst thing ive created because it stuck so much to canon. it was canon but random other characters would show up sometimes. But there's always worse I still think about original ANOS. og ANOS was completely trash HAHAHAHA but that's a story for main blog

I finally made an Octoling OC to go with my squid kids!

His name is 3D and he was conscripted into the Octarian forces (mind controlled) and assigned to stop Ceph (my Agent 3) 'at all costs'.

They're pretty evenly matched and every encounter leads with Ceph getting away with help from the New Squidbeak Splatoon.

He's never able to fully best Ceph until the penultimate fight before DJ Octavio when they finally fight just 1 on 1.

Ceph just barely comes out on top again in their final battle, and instead of splatting him, he convinces 3D that he only won because 3D's mind control device is actually weakening him.

In a fit of rage 3D destroys his own mind control device and is freed from Octarian control. He doesn't remember anything before he was mind controled but is still only obsessed with getting his 1v1.

Ceph agrees to fight him one last time if 3D helps him defeat the Octarians first. He joins Ceph, and eventually stays with him afterwards because he, "doesn't have anything else anymore" after Ceph invites him back to Inkopolis.

His continuous losses and inability to defeat Ceph while mind controlled messed with his temperament, and now he's prone to frustration and anger, but Ceph basically takes him in and they become "frenemies" according to 3D (although he reluctantly agrees that Ceph is his closest friend and they share a "special bond" [gay])

3D gets his name because of his heterochromia matching the ancient relics known as '3-D Goggles', and there's and ongoing bit that he can "see in 3D" because they're all stupid.

After he's no longer mind controlled, he becomes obsessed with "Retro Gaming" whatever that is! He Wears the Retro Gamer Jersey, and flavors the N-Zap and S-Blast weapons because of their "Retro Design".

Commission for @pixie-inkk of their Splatoon OC, Ceph

[shininglynxie]

Now, this is something I haven't done in a long time: a drawing to commemorate the end of the year.

While I definitely drew many different things during this year, it is Splatoon that has been a constant all throughout it. It had been the single interest of mine that has managed to make me keep making art the most consistently. It was because of Splatoon that I was able to make some of my most ambitious pieces yet, and it, more than my other interests, has consistently pushed me to try new things. At the forefront of it all has, of course, been my oc Ceph as my primary gateway into the world of Splatoon.

In this piece I decided to depict all the idols - the faces of Splatoon - in various outfits that correlate to some new thing that happened in Splatoon 3 this year. In the middle there's Ceph in his swim form(yes, that's what it looks like), wielding his go-to weapon - the Splatana Stamper.

Overall, this year was definitely a more productive one for me. I feel like I managed to get a lot more art done than last year. I hope that hext year is gonna be filled with even more great art and artistic improvement than this was!

ONE time me and my friends did a coffee shop AU where all our splatoon OCs worked at Starbucks LAFF. Ceph is the manager, Krill is the annoying college jock who flirts with him constantly, Lash is the quiet drink maker while Sally is...sally. Helix is one of the cashiers too and dredge is just a gross who flirts with him all the time. 

[silverstarsheep]

Ceph “Stinky” Halo, my boy and pride and joy. I’ve reworked him a bit in recent to work as a stand-alone OC as well, not just a Splatoon character. 

He’s still a squid but everyone thinks he’s a bird! Doesn’t help that he’s a siren, lol. 

[pixie-inkk]

The 1st one and last one mine, and he did amazing on them!!!

The 1st one is of Ceph and her sisters Layla and Viz, Layla with the gold dynamo and Viz with the clapples.

Top is their original colors and the bottom is their elite colors!!!

The bottom commission is of my band that's consisting of my agents and oc, it's called Ink Scratch! Look at them, it's supposed to be an album cover and they did awesome, I can't stop looking at it!!!

Top left to bottom right: Percephone "Ceph" new Agent 3, Artemis Agent 4, Calypso Agent 8, and Athena Agent or Cap'n 3!💛💚💜💙

[paintscrap3r]

I FORGOT. THE CONNECTION FOR TETRA AND HUCH EVEN THOUGH THEIR CONNECTION IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ONES???

really really messy character relationship thing. this is all my splatoon ocs except 2. sunni's zombie girlfriend isn't there bc she would have 1 connection. with sunni. and maybe 8 idk. and roen's salmon run buddy because I forgot him oops

I SWEAR I HAD A PIC OF CEPH SOMEHWERE. I LOST IT. SO HES PICREW NOW

[pixie-inkk]

Ceph: “I-I'm sorry, I-I wish I knew where she was.”

Marie: *sighs saddly* “As expected, never trust an octoling.”

Once the brainwashing wears off, it’s like you’re getting hit by an ultra stamp, the consequences and pain of what you’ve done, it hits you hard...
