#arktober

Bringing back my Arktober series from last year! First up is Goldenglow x Vinita Inks the Maiden ✨

This is a shimmertastic ink that has managed to clog every fountain pen I’ve tried loading it into. Would not recommend for writing, but it truly shines when applied to paintings 😌.

Hopefully I can do more than 5 this year. Wish me luck!

Collection of what I have so far! Part of the stuff I made for Arktober this year. I'm determined to complete it even though I've joined a little late!

A good opportunity to draw maid Kjera again for the arktober day 7 prompt "Maid"

I suck at inktober-like challenges, so I usually skip those. But there are several prompts in the list that match my (pretty much abandoned) WIPs, so I'll just use the deadlines to motivate myself to finish them.

ARKTOBER- Extinction 2023 (Inktober)

PART 1 (ARKtober 2021 - The Isle) PART 2 (ARKtober 2022 - Aberration) Dino zombies, mutations and End of the World !! Woooo this year’s custom inktober is clearly one of my biggest challenges of 2023! I drew a group of FIVE characters to interact, it’s a great exercise I loved doing for my last ARKtober! When I compare them with those before, I feel like I have progressed and made something much cleaner and better managed for the colors, even if it’s not perfect. I mean, when I put aside day 31 vs the first day of 2021… WOW!

Characters: Kahuere, Etekumuiq, Limni: @ampreh Meralbayr: @nalak-bel 's Céen: @ HallOfFlamess 's

Arktober #4

Robin x Sailor Shikiori Rikyucha 🦝

Tbh drawing raccoons was a lot more fun and easier than drawing anime girls 😂

Hi, I stopped being social media allergic. Here’s a doodle for Arktober. 🙃

I also have a backlog of doodles in my sketchbook that I might queue up.

Arktober day 30: Achievement star

Casual gaming outfit for Nightingale. And she managed to pull her favorite unit!

I had the genius idea to mix my homework prompt with this double prompt challenge. But these seaborn were so fun to draw.

Brush pens are a blessing cuz I can make all of this texture with the price of one.

a little under one year ago, i created the OC Sepia Vignette as my primary arknights Doctor OC. as of today, she’s been the OC i’ve drawn the most, and she’s very important to me.

thus, i went ahead and revisited her “concept art” and refined it with a lot more stuff, a feat which was made possible by the fact that i was able to improve my art a bit through stuff like Arktober.

below the cut are the close-ups:

her swoopy wing-like bangs in-universe are the result of her trying to emulate the style of a fictional character she loves, but when i designed her, i wanted to evoke a bird-like look immediately, hence the winged bang and the tailfeather hair.

the hair clips were gifts from Roberta and Utage, respectively.

just some little rough expression sketches; i only ever draw Sepia smiling in two ways, so i wanted to mix it up a little bit!

the turtleneck was always a part of her design, but i added the long white gown to add more to her outfit, and gave it a thin white hoodie-style hood to somewhat mimic a collared shirt. the brooch was actually an idea i got after Sepia had a surprise appearance in the Dokutobah challenge.

aside from her being distinct in terms of physical appearance, i also wanted to make her stand out a bit more from the canon Doctor, so i gave her helmet a paint pattern based off her Liberi animal inspiration, the Aplomado falcon. i also changed the shape of the helmet slightly, giving the upper half of it a beaked visor attachment to further draw out the birdlike element.

the tactical drone, alongside the wrist-mounted "definitely not playing arknights in-universe" computer, was always a part of her design. the element of a back-mounted drone catapult, however, was not; it was a random idea i got when writing part of Sepia's fic, and the decision was reinforced by the fact that Sepia's character inspiration is a falcon; thus, i wanted the drone to have a more dynamic take-off.

thus concludes the Sepia presentation. if you read all of this, thank you, and i love you.
