Another piece of art for my AU I wasn't originally going to post (yet), but I decided it really wouldn't hurt. part of the reason I didn't want to show her yet was because she's intended for a bit later in my AU.

I initially didn't want to make any OCs, but I was kind of just inspired to make a sad cyborg, and there's like a 50/50 chance she's going to die, so it doesn't matter anyways. I don't know which yet, I'll get to her fate when I get there; for now, I can see the value in keeping her alive and in killing her off.

Revenant the Serval, Rev, or Ghosty, is a cyborg created by the Metal Empire specifically to kill high-ranking members of the resistance. Revenant specifically was designed to kill Knuckles. However, due to a botched procedure and a couple of "incidents," Revenant ends up rebelling against the empire and attempts to free the other members of her team.

Her favorite food is cantaloupe. (is this relevant? no, but I wanted to give her a favorite food for no reason)

Also her eyes look like that because they are just black with red pupils, that isn't a shadow thing going on.

You know what? fuck it! I’m bored, my back hurts so I don’t want to sit at my art tablet, I’m bored of youtube, and I’m not in the mood for videos games or shows. So, how about I rp as my oc Revenant for some asks? Whatever you guys want to ask about this little cyborg.

This is her.

I felt like showing a little more of Revenant, my OC for my Sonic AU.

I had no clue what to draw to convey this idea, but, for some reason, I think of her as being trans (mtf), but I don't know if I'll fully commit to that idea or if it'll ever be relevant to her outside of just being an extra little detail about her.

She also becomes friends with Kit.

Also, her power to phase through objects that was stated in the previous post about her. It isn't phasing; she has light matter manipulation, giving her the ability to fully control the molecular structure of her body.

I made this years ago and suddenly remembered it existed. I think there was an even longer version but I can’t find it.

I decided to just drop this. This is my little guy; he's an evolution of a little white cat I used to draw when I was in high school. Just one day I decided, Fuck it, I'm just going to make myself a fursona because I'm bored. and I love him. I like the pastel colors and the way his more edgy-looking outfit clashes with them. He's just a little guy who literally kills people. And since he's supposed to be the same guy I drew in high school, that means I got in trouble for drawing him holding knives and covered in blood during class.

I love how this new image for my banner pairs with my Profile picture.

New Profile picture so it isn't as horny looking

I know I've pretty much exclusively posted Sonic-related stuff so far, but fan art/AU stuff isn't the only art I do; in fact, it's kind of a rarity. I just found myself a little too hyperfixated on Sonic lately. But here's a small collection of concept art for a personal little project I've worked on for a while now. if the sprites don't make it obvious they're for a game. Making video games is something I've always wanted to do; the problem is I think coding is boring as SHIT! I've tried to learn coding and tried various game engines, but for some reason I can't go more than a week before I lose all interest.

Here's some information on the creatures shown here from the bestiary I wrote.

Species: Ampstri

Height: 2.4 m

Weight: 430 kg

One of the first intelligent species I encountered, during my research on these invaders was a 2.4-meter-tall bipedal amphibian. They act somewhat abrasive and aloof , as if they don't actually want to be here; but fortunately, as long as I keep my distance, they are surprisingly docile.

They use a myriad of weaponry, including handguns, rifles, and even swords. Based on my observations, they appear to take on an authoritative role amid the ranks of the invaders. I can only guess they are at or near the top of the social hierarchy between them and the other species.

They’re quick on their feet and like to engage in combat from a distance, yet are even more formidable in close quarters. I'm afraid a kick from one would have been enough to cave in my rib cage if it weren't for my suit.

Species: Quarjuk

Height: 3 m

Weight: 907 kg

It was while straying from the U.I.C. and invaders' skirmishes that I first encountered this species of colossal crustacean. As I snuck through some empty buildings, I was taken by surprise as I heard the familiar hum of the invader’s teleportation technology directly behind me.

I turned to find a giant shrimp-like creature standing where I'd stood seconds ago. It had a large pulse cannon on its right arm, however this creature's left claw posed the most threat. The left claw, which accounted for one-third of its body, was so strong that when the monster attempted to snap out at me, it shattered the air.

It moved with terrifying speed for a creature of its size. It charged towards me, attempting to slow me down with shots from its pulse cannon so it could finish the job with its claw. If the beast had caught me, I doubt my suit would be enough to save me.

Species: Armadura

Height: 3.6 m

Weight: 258 kg

My concerns for my personal safety increase along with my fatigue with my studies while I remain on Advent 7. The instant I laid eyes on this hulking monstrosity, I nearly gave up entirely.

As a colonial organism, this particular invader is actually several, sharing a single body. In my research into its biology, I was able to identify eight different organisms interconnected to form a single, larger creature. I find it hard to understand why a creature in such perfect harmony would utilize it for such violent ends.

They piloted a metal skeleton, which their tentacles wrapped around, for reasons I cannot completely fathom save from offering some protection to their vitals. Nevertheless, they used the suit to attack with strong, electric fists. The suit appeared to be able to release energy bursts from its fists; on a few occasions, it even managed to surprise me by launching an electric bolt.

Species: Furta (wild)

Height: 2 m

Weight: 153 kg

I first caught sight of this thing from a distance, a horned demon-like creature staring at me from a couple blocks away. It didn’t take long before I came face-to-face with it. It was a much larger subspecies of the furta I'd seen the volticarian leading around the streets.

Compared to their domesticated relatives, who were weaker pack hunters, they were a stronger and far more aggressive ambush predator. I had to block the thing’s strikes with my knife, as it lunged directly for my throat.

Interestingly i’ve observed a pack system among this subspecies as well the one i had met alone seemed to be a young male. But I ran into a large pack of them later on; led by a single older male accompanied by 8 to 10 females.

Species: espira

Height: 1.9 m

Weight: 82 kg

This angelic figure appeared before me in a burst of light. The distinct hum and colors of the invaders' teleportation technology were absent from their entrance, indicating that the species was either of an entirely separate group or had its own teleportation abilities.

And given that it had psychokinetic powers that defied reason, I wouldn't be shocked if it did. My suit’s scanners went haywire attempting to process the thing, but from what they could gather, its genetic make-up included every known element in the universe.

They seemed to serve a supporting role for the other invaders, using their powers to throw debris in my direction and to shelter their allies with psychic barriers. But even with this overtly hostile behavior, I couldn't shake the feeling that it looked sad. It seemed as though it was begging for forgiveness from the way it was staring at me.

Cause I referenced my interest in theoretical biology in my new introductory post I feel like taking a break from my constant talking about Sonic and my two AUs I’m working on to put a highlight on this little interest of mine.

As seen in this post I did a while ago I designed a bunch of little alien creatures for an idea I had for a video game. But I didn’t design those just trying to make them look cool I actually put an autistic level of detail into their biology to the point I thought up stuff like what their planet is like, their place in their planet’s food chain, how they hunt, and even how they reproduce.

For example, the creature referred to as an Ampstri is a pseudo-amphibian species from a tropical planet with a surface 95% covered in water. They’re a cycling hermaphroditic species that swaps between their male and female cycles depending on a number of conditions; they’ll typically change it every couple of years, but they will also change if there are too few males or females nearby. The male cycle is much smaller and suited for a more aquatic lifestyle where they hunt in the reefs for the females. They have smaller lungs, less muscle mass, and larger fins, especially on their backs and tails. Their female cycle, however, is built for killing. Ampstri lay their eggs much like sea turtles, in wide open sandy beaches, but don’t leave the nest for their young to fend for themselves; they instead fiercely protect them. The female cycle has larger lungs, much more muscle mass, and a second heart for pumping more blood into said muscles. Their main purpose is to kick the ever-living shit out of anything that gets near their nest that isn’t another Ampstri since they also tend to lay their eggs in groups, so when anything gets near their nests, that intruder will be jumped by around 4 to 10 seven- to eight-foot-tall, nearly 900-pound angry mothers.

This is kind of old and not that good since it was mostly just some conceptual sketching, but I felt like dropping this. This is a design for that fantasy world I mentioned in THIS POST the other day. They're meant to be like a main character, and I say they because their race known as Fire Elves by humans who misidentify them as the elven forms the Fae creatures take, but they more properly go by the name of Moksidians and are closely related to humans in actuality culturally, don't really recognize gender as their priorities lie elsewhere. They're not very social people, being opportunistic and aggressive due to coming from the most hostile continent on their planet, being the central hub for the Ancients' military power. Their homeland is poisoned by weapons of mass destruction but also teeming with ancient technology, also making them among the most technologically advanced civilizations around while also being among the most violent. Moksidians are also all characterized by a blindness, a curse put upon their entire race by an outer god whom they managed to upset. This blindness had the effect of heightening their magical prowess over time as they compensated for their lack of eyesight by gaining the ability to magically sense the world around them.

[papagabu]

I feel like dropping this because I don't know, completely non-Sonic-related stuff out of nowhere. I brought up that I had my own original stuff at one point, and I wanted to say something about a really funny idea I had for the one I had, which was like a sci-fi cosmic horror type thing. The main bad guys of that world are so advanced that they enslaved a race of higher beings, specifically a species called Espira. The Espira are a species from outside the bounds of time and space, originating from outside the multiverse itself. How the villains of this world do that is by developing interdimensional travel, but the reason why they haven’t just gone to conquer the multiverse with such technology is because the very first universe they entered had an alternate and equally powerful version of themselves that they immediately went to war with. They didn’t hesitate; they were just like, “You’re literally me. But, nah, I’d win.”

This was my way of rationalizing the Espiras existence cause I just made them but then I was like, “damn, now I gotta come up with an explanation for these biblically accurate telekinetic jellyfish people.”

[papagabu]

Your art trademark is expressions you draw really expressive characters.

OOO yeah, I love me some wacky faces.

Here's this old image of me playing around with expressions for this OCI made a long time ago. I mentioned her in a previous post; her name's Clair. I was planning on redesigning her at some point because she doesn't really match my current design standards because she isn't that original looking, and she's very obviously designed by a horny teenager with how massive her tits are. Like, WHAT THE FUCK! They aren't that big, but I still feel like I'd prefer them to be smaller.

[papagabu]

I've been putting this off for far too long.

PINNED INTRODUCTORY POST NOW!!!

Hello I am Gabu or Papa Gabu. You can just think of me as this GAY little creature right here

I am an adult, autistic, bisexual (pansexual is probably more accurate, but I vibe with the bisexual colors, so it's more of an aesthetic choice) masc-presenting non-binary person who goes by he/him just out of familiarity, I don't really care though; call me they/them or even she/her or any other pronouns if you'd like it's all the same to me.

I'm an artist/writer with an interest in world building and theoretical biology.

I DON'T DO COMMISIONS (but I will look into getting those started in the future but right now I can't)

I'm a fan of all sorts of things, but generally I'm a big fan of video games. A list of series I particularly like would include Sonic, Kirby, Pokemon, Xenoblade, Halo, Doom, Half-Life, the Elder Scrolls, Silent Hill, Fnaf, and Undertale/Deltarune.

TAILS IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER EVER!

I don't feel like making a DNI list, so just generally don't be a blatant asshole when interacting with me or my stuff, and we'll get along fine. And speaking of interacting, I'm open to it; I don't care what you want to ask or talk to me about or even if you just feel like saying something funny to me, go right ahead. Just know I'm a fairly unfiltered speaker outside of professional situations, so expect a lot of swearing every now and then.
