Silver, wake up! ...Let's go home.

Hey what's your opinion on gijinkas?? If you like them, do you have any kirby gijinka centered blogs to suggest? I'm kind of new to the concept and looking for blogs to follow!!

I. LOVE. GIJINKAS. I’ve actually been designing some of my own for quite some time (troubles with choosing hairstyles and clothes hnnnngh) but have been saving them for later (bc of aforementioned problems, drawing easy stuff for now) Maybe I should post some sketches since I brought them up? Wanna see? Lemme know.

As for blog suggestions… Errr I’m really not the best person to ask. I don’t really have time to browse through tumblr much (I’m a mess when it comes to social media) I need some blog suggestions myself, really. I’ve seen quite a number of gijinka blogs though--WAIT NO, I have gone to find their names so I could share their work and here they are:@yarnkirby and @y0d00p have some nice anthro stuff (technically not gijinkas but they r pretty)@noddybee @maqolor and @dmunart have Kirby gijinkas that I liked

There’s a lot of gijinka ask blogs so lemme just list some here: @ask-kirby-of-the-stars (this one’s new and pretty, go give them some love) @commander-of-the-halberd (I love their meta, he’s a fab jerk) @ask-kirby-and-his-edgy-big-bro (these are also anthros I think? but i like them so here you go)@askkirbyandothers isn’t really active but has really nice art ~If you go to their blogs you can easily find other gijinka ask blogs, they do collabs and stuff together!

There are more authors that I’ve seen pretty gijinkas of but can’t find them/don’t have time to do more searching ;_;(also lol I have a feeling I gave you a lot of Meta Knight- centered ones? Whoops.)

SEBEK ZIGVOLT - OVERBLOT -

full size version

Please see the full sized version linked above! Since it’s been compressed pretty badly here...

And here’s a version without the unnecessary lightning background, and a face close-up without the glow effects.

ALRIGHT, so this is one of the biggest pieces I’ve done in a long while. I put a lot of work into this so I hope you all enjoy~

I’ve got a lot to say about this one, so read at your own leisure lol.

I think it’s worth leaving notes on my design choices for this one, so I’ll start with that.

First of all, Sebek's character is based off of lightning/thunder (obviously) and also Maleficent's crocodile minion, the latter which I incorporated more parts of (like the halberd and the pointed coattails like his croc tail). Also his phantom would be based on the croc minion character.

I originally wanted to give him more actual crocodile features, like a tail or scales or something, but it wasn't really working out the way I wanted, so I scrapped it.

Most OB’s have long, ripped clothing so I gave him more of a cloak akin to Maleficent’s, the shape of the collar specifically being the same as hers.

I added some spikes on the coat like crocodiles have down their back and tail.

I really like the leg pieces that Riddle & Leona had for their OB’s, and the weaving pattern also happens to make a zigzag lightning shape, so it fits.

I also like the OB designs that have super drippy blot on their arms.

Some things are just copied from his dorm uniform, like the waistband and belts, and the shoulder armour (not the spools of thread though...).

The left shoulder armour doesn't exist in the normal dorm uniform. OB Sebek has one made of blot because Sebek's biggest insecurity is that he's incomplete and will never be good enough due to being half-blood and he wants to be whole T^T

Lightning-shaped blot markings on his face of course. Mostly I just tried to make something that didn't look ugly... 

Lastly, I wanted to make his hair messier, but it would end up covering his beautiful face so I let it remain swept back - 3- (aka I couldn’t make it look nice).

So in terms of why Sebek might OB... he clearly has an intense, unresolved internal hatred for his human blood, due to the environment he grew up in. And the way he copes with these emotions is by taking it out on the people around him. It just seems like with the intensity of these feelings, if he were to keep it internalized, it would completely destroy him from the inside. And he just has NOT had the chance or know-how to learn to accept himself and therefore others. So of course, this is something he needs to work on but he definitely cannot do it alone. I think something traumatic does need to happen for him to realize and learn from his ways honestly. In terms of the canon, this will probably be due to Malleus' overblot or whatever shenanigans will happen in Book 7.... but Sebek himself overblotting would do just as well.

I think this fic does a really good job with building up Sebek's OB and his mindset throughout it all getting worse and worse... --> READ HERE It’s still in progress at the moment of posting but the after-blot plot is really wholesome too for us Sebek fans. EVEN IF you are not one you should still give it a read. (Just for full disclosure, my OB design is not based on the one described in this fic.)

Thank you for reading my rambles. I’ve got more angst coming ;>

[julicity]

A wish for myself that doesn’t involve Malleus-sama...? Nothing comes to mi-- Mm... Perhaps... perhaps there is one...

But there is no use thinking on it.

[julicity]

And give him some praise too.
