Ever since I watched the ring of fire movie, I really enjoyed the interactions of these two sillies!! Waaa 🐈🐇

Also I’m probably gonna have to skip day 3 and 4, going on a trip to da beach!!

How hard could it possibly be to look after the ADHD fortnite kid and the little girl who psychoanalyzes you with brutal honesty?

Day 1 of this year’s Octonauts week!!! The prompt was “Favourite Character(s)” <3 last year I already did Kwazii and Paani for a similar prompt, so I wanted to add in my two favourite Junior Octo-Agents to the scene this time around >x3c think of it as my subliminal messaging for this team-up to actually happen in the show!

Octonauts week, day 6! Today was an episode redraw. I also don't know where this capture comes from, as I found it while looking through Shellington's character gallery. (Please don't repost my art, but resharing is appreciated!)

Edit: thank you to user Spacefinch for finding the episode! It's from the Urcin and Crab ep :)

Octonauts Week Day 6: Episode Redraw!

Their having brunch :>

This is from the seahorse episode, that one so funny (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠)

Here's a bonus of Kwazii after he bites into the kelp cake and realizes that it's licorice flavored:

Day 5: book redraw

I was stuck at work today, so have this more chaotic sketch. It works for what it is

[arcturthenerd]

octonauts week day 7: a headcanon or AU

the octonauts don't have money to buy actual consoles so tweak makes knockoff ones.

[call-me-casual]

Aaaand here are the last works I did for the final three days of octonauts week. I really should have completed these sooner but I was either busy, felt sick or was tired ;-;

Day Five - Book redraw (The backgrounds were really fun to draw)

Day Six - Movie/episode redraw (I did the scene just after Barnacles is freed from the hole.)

Day Seven - Au or Headcanon (My designs for the octonauts (minus tunip and inkling) in my Something Wild AU. They’re just wip’s for now because I’m planning to try and do some detailed stuff with them)

Day 7: AU or Headcannon

Trigger Warning for talk of kidnapping and similar topics(don't judge me, I'm an edgy bitch)

((All/most of this information is in my Octonauts book on Wattpad))

I headcannon that pirates used to frequent Antarctica to steal penguin eggs. They would hatch them on their ship, then sell them off. To who, I dunno, but whatever ones didn't hatch, they would cook and eat them. Kwazii was born into one of the crews/families that did this, but he never liked it. He always tried to reason with the adults, but we all know how that usually goes.

Peso was stolen as an egg by Kwazii's crew, when Kwazii was about a year old. He hatched on their ship(he was also a premature chick but that's not important) and Kwazii helped all of the chicks escape into the water. He didn't know that penguin chicks can't swim, but it's okay, he was just a kitten. Peso and the rest of the chicks did know, but trying to make it back home was a better option than staying and going through with whatever the pirates wanted. Unfortunately, only Peso and two other chicks survived the swim home, and he's been traumatized by the experience ever since.

When he joined the Octonauts, and he "met" Kwazii, he almost turned around and swam all the way back home. But a big reason he was even joining this team was to overcome his fears and put some of his anxiety aside for once and just have a good time and help people. So he stayed, and over time, the fear went away. It took a while, but within a year of being his teammate, he started thinking of him as his best friend. That is how they view each other to this day. They don't know, however, that they've met once before, until Calico Jack has been introduced and the three of them have a small chat about the whole thing.

When he was more properly introduced to Calico Jack, he already knew he wasn't like the pirates that used to do that stuff, but he still shivered a little when they made eye contact. Overall, his fear of pirates had faded a lot by that point, but, as anyone who's had to 'get over' a traumatizing event will tell you, it's not always that simple. Kwazii is very obviously a soft heart, and he just wants to help as many people as he can, and he would die for his friends. Calico Jack is like that too, but it's not very upfront compared to his rugged pirate-ness. At least, not upfront enough for Peso to just bat an eye at his being a pirate like he's come to do for Kwazii. Not yet, anyway.

Captain Barnacles is the only one who knows about all of this. As the Captain, he knows the general history of everyone in his crew, career-wise. Peso confided in him about his fear of pirates and Kwazii pretty early on, like almost immediately, both because he's just that clearly a trustworthy person, and because keeping it a secret from him would have put unnecessary strain on the whole team and risked the downfall of their teamwork if he didn't. Barnacles being Barnacles, he tried to help them become friends, but stayed out of their way enough to let them work through it on their own.

Octonauts week day 6!!

Episode or film redraw!

I was originally gonna redraw this scene with no background but I’m glad I added it in, even if I’m not used to detailed backgrounds xd

Koshi reading to the rest of the junior octo-agents awhwhshs i was supa happi to see them interacting 🐶 🐻‍❄️ 🐻‍❄️ 🐧

original scene

[cutechickdgaming]

Days 2 & 3...I suspected my STUPID PERFECTIONISM would make me late again, so I’ll do Day 3 early.

Can’t think of any songs that match up with much of the Octonauts, so have an obvious one for Kwazii...he’s demanding you to put the link in the search bar.

I have lots of Octonauts relationships I like, so I’ll actually randomly choose one. I really feel like Kwazii and Tweak have a “siblinghood” or whatever kind of platonic relationship, and they take care of the Gups, especially B for Kwaz. And you know how often Kwazii screws up with his Gup, but cares about it so much like in the Sailfish and the Giant Kelp Forest.

[star-scrambled]

“Matey, you’ve got to get some rest!” “One last rematch, Kwaz?” “Eh....maybe one more game wouldn’t hurt.”

Day 2 of this year’s Octonauts week!!! The prompt was “Favourite Relationship” <3 last year I drew my beloved queerplatonic couple, Kwazii and Tweak, so I wanted to draw them again! I was a little too intimidated to redraw the old piece though, since I still LOVE the way it looks,, so naturally I decided to do something Even Crazier LMAO 😭 I’m no background or perspective genius, but life’s too short to stay inside my comfort zone baby!! I’m really proud of the results, and maybe I’ll make more stuff like this in the future! 💖

[hammysamhah]

decided to save time by reusing an older drawing i made for day 6 since i still gotta do day 7 today and i just don’t have the time

day 6-show/film redraw

the screenshot vv

Octonauts week, day 4! Today was pride and I couldn't think of much for this one tbh and I really don't know why? I guess I don't have a lot of headcanons of my own so I simply went with a Kwaso sketch :) (please don't repost my art, although resharing is appreciated!)

Octonauts Week day 1: Favorite character

Without question, my favorite Octonauts character is Dr. Shellington. He loves learning and sharing facts about sea creatures, he’s very autistic coded, and he’s a sea otter! How can I not love him?
