Neo 3 ^^

Ref sheet done, lol. This took forever ahhh!! Ik it's not the neatest, but it gets the job done XD.

I'll go into more detail under the cut.. (lore)

Everleigh used to live in Inkpolis Plaza but her family had to move to the Splatlands a couple years back, to take care of her grandma. Her life kinda changed from then XD. The treatment for her grandma was expensive and turf war just wasn't cutting it anymore... so her parents suggested Salmon Run (Everleigh had no idea what this was at the time) but she agreed, nonetheless, after all if it pays well it can't be that bad, right?

Well this is where she developed weird "attachment issues" to the salmonids, she thought they were cute (especially smallfry), and wondered why so many people wanted to take their eggs, they didn't deserve that... So she started slacking off, not getting quota on purpose, giving eggs to snatchers, not reviving teammates ect... nobody ever suspected her though..

How she met Waffle..

One day at the end of a shift, Everleigh noticed an injured Smallfry near the shore, struggling to move, she went to help him but she could hear the helicopter about to leave, so she put him in her bag and scrambled back. She looked after him for weeks and weeks, feeding him, giving him a place to sleep, going on morning runs all to get his strength back! It wasnt easy though, as she had to hide him from everbody, she even took him to work (while bribing him with food as a reward, lol) he just stayed in her bag the whole time!

Eventually he was back to his bubbly self and fully recovered which meant Everleigh had to return him to the sea... She had always intended this, but she had grown far too attached to him, she couldn't stomach the thought of a co-worker killing him.. so she decided to keep him and named him Waffle!

The day she became an agent...

As usual she was on her way to work with Waffle, she was about to walk up the stairs when she heard a voice, it was coming from a manhole, she looked over and a strange old man was signaling her to walk over, he disappeared down the manhole and they follow him...

*I'll spare you the whole story mode Alterna plot you already know what happens XD*

After defeating Mr Grizz she knew for a fact she couldn't work for him anymore. She told her parents that she wanted to quit but they wouldn't let her, they said it was too much money to give up, then they started guilt tripping her saying things like "you really don't want to help your grandma..?" This made her feel terrible and she reluctantly continued working for a few more weeks... until she just couldn't take it anymore, she stomped into grizzco, slammed her things on the desk and shouted "I quit!" and she never set foot in there again. She traded the gold scales she'd earned over the years to a random octoling for money, (she sure wouldn't need those anymore) and managed to pay for her grandma's treatments! She now lives with her grandma and Waffle in a small apartment and works full time as an agent, getting paid now by the captain! She rarely speaks to her parents and will leave the apartment when they visit.

Side effects of becoming an agent..

.She doesn't have much time to do things anymore as she's always busy doing missions

.Her hair now looks a little fluffy, this is due to all the fuzzy ooze she fell in..

.She kinda developed ptsd from fighting her way through the missions.

.Feels like she can't meet Waffle's needs and doesn't want to overwork him.

These are just a few things, but she can't say she regrets anything, after all, it was her release from everything. She made new friends, defeated Grizz, participates in turf and anarchy again (with the other agents) and best of all she's happier now, that's what really matters!

That's about it really, sorry for the long story, 😭 I just wanted to get it out there since she didn't have much character development before, so if you made it here,thank you so much for reading the whole thing, I appreciate you!! ^^ I apologise if it didn't really make sense...

Here's a close up of Waffle as a reward XP

Since I can't draw atm, I thought I'd just share a wip, for my ref sheet I was working on...

Sorry its very messy, lol

I've decided she's gonna be my neo 3, because she gives me those vibes!! So yes, I'll also make her a lil buddy XD (the one I have in-game)

I'll hopefully start on new art in a week or so, It depends how I feel..

[carlzy-berryz]

Just a lil profile pic for halloween ^^

I haven't been on splatoon in a while, so I just realised we got the lil devil horns back!! I always thought they were so cute!!

Yes I've changed my inkling oc a lot, I'm planning to make her a ref sheet soon!

[carlzy-berryz]

This my splatoon "squidsona" (more oldish art XD)

Oh! And the sketched version...

[carlzy-berryz]

An old squid pic

Ik it's terrible but I'm gonna post it anyway XD

[carlzy-berryz]

Just changed my Oc tags to their actual names, it wasn't annoying at all, lol. But I'm glad it's done I was pissing me off.

It feels so much better now, just more personalised ig.. 😌

[carlzy-berryz]

OK.. here's the BIG POST XD.. well for me at least..

First, just some lumas that I made digital from those sketches I did..

I'm gonna put the rest under the cut just incase anyone is scrolling ^^

Then here's a WIP of Bowser (I might finish this one soon but GOD why was he so hard to draw!!??)

Oh! And another one of Acht, cos they're my new fave splatoon character ^^. BUT this one probably won't be done for a while, I have other things on my mind to finish...

Staying on the Splatoon topic there's the WIP that I finished yesterday..

This is my inkling as a squid, because I had a headcanon that inklings/octolings should keep their headgear on when they are in swim form so you can tell them apart if they're on the same team... idk I just thought it was cute...

And at this point I was just messing around with sketchbook and decided to draw some bubbles. Ik they're not good but I think the yellow one is a bit of an improvement..

This one is just a little part of my au, this is my oc's wand/scepter (Hazel's). After everything was worked out between her and the Koopas I think Bowser would find her fire breathing/combat skills impressive (I'll do a drawing on this sometime in my life XD) so he'd ask Kamek to make her a wand like the koopalings so she can help them in fights. It works just like the others but she's still getting the hang of it so she can only fire one projectile at a time.

..sorry for all the writing...😖

These final ones have kinda bad quality so I'm sorry about that...

I'm actually working on a new oc!!!

This is a Mario X Peach child and I decided on the name Plum (ik know it says that on the pic but it's blurry and my hand writing is bad)..

I do like her other outfits but I think the sketch with the shirt coloured in will be her final design, I'll make it digital and add some info about her prooobably later this month...

But anyway that's it, I think, so I'll go back to my little corner of slow posting and reblogging..

'K byee!!

OMG WHAT?!?

NO WAY!!! My friend just told me this was the cover image.. I THOUGHT THEY WERE JOKING?!? 😭 THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 🫶
