#god I just remembered MixScape Canon Jerma exists oh my gid

Me yapping about my OCS moment ‼️

I think,,, there’s something great about making original characters and making worlds or doing stuff like that,,,

I’ve been doing this stuff as a kid and it had brought me such immense comfort and pleasure to create these characters and pretend they exist in their own world doing god knows what

Kinda kind of crazy to realise that some of my first OCS are nearing their 10th anniversary the closer 2025 and 2026 comes, and it’s also the fact I’ve still clung into these characters I’ve had since I was a kid

Of course their cringey asses have changed but I genuinely love them nonetheless

I’ve been drawing a lot of Tarabell/C lately, from a self insert that I could escape reality from to becoming a symbol of empowerment for myself is kind of wild

Especially when I originally made her OC world as a form of escapism, something I could drag my friends into and imagine anything to their hearts desire. In a way it is still kind of like that but very much different DHDHDHS

My OCS share reflections of a lot of influences in my life and my experiences

Tarabell’s world, the MixScape is this fantasy getaway of all these characters exploring a land full of history and culture, in which any character from any fandom can exist in their wild ass fantasy AU

Isabelle’s backstory and her entire world is dark as hell because at the time my own life felt pretty shitty and I wanted someone to relate ((then she became my comfort OC DGDGSH))

Marks dystopian future kind of represents the possible future of what the world might look like, that’s a whole ramble onto itself tbh

And I have so much more but just thinking about the things I make, I kinda put my heart and soul into it, sharing it to some friends who like my work and it makes me really happy,,,even if I talk about it all the time and I am SURE they are sick of me for that SHDHSHSH

Really tempted to do the “despite everything, it’s still you” with maybe one of my now 10 year old OCS or even with myself and my art journey,,,

Idk,,, I just needed to get that off my chest -3-
