I Love My Ocs - Tumblr Posts - Page 2

Guys the Larry post will be… when I actually do sit down and write it but like aaaaah that’s for later me.

Anyway I just spent my morning drawing my silly little character,

Her arm is weird as hell but at 6:50 I didn’t want to re-do my draft and try to shove her hands to be visible in the pose because I like the look of her sitting there in a much more calmed rigid but relaxed pose (I usually draw her with her hands up in a surrender so I think having one of her hands behind her back in a very calm posing was a nice change of pace) but this is still Mercury (my oc I haven’t posted about in a while) and my oc fun fact that accompanied this post is that she is a bleach blonde and her hair is fried.

Anyway, Larry will be coming up but I was proud of my silly art and I was happy to finally draw someone with some form of background behind her. Do I know where she is? Of course not I just wanted to draw pillars because I had an excuse to make them a arch/doorway and I thought that was a nice little reference to Janus legacy stuff (forgot to draw her tattoo because she added onto it but I am not about to change the drawing again because I Finnicked with the colors of the lineart for WAY too long)

Maybe I’ll do bigger pictures like these for other characters- unlike my writing posts I make no promises.

Wanted to show the difference in my art after almost a year :3

I've been able to maintain the same style, but over time I've improved, and added more diverse features as well ^^

This is my oc, Levi, the first one is from October of 2023

And the second one is from this month.

Unlike most of my old drawings, I still love the old one. I used to hate my old drawings, usually after a very short period of time. But that's not the case here. Since the start of this new style, I really like almost all of the pieces I've done ^^

Here's some other pieces I'm proud of, all of them are from this year :3 (the first three are art trades I did ^^)

succumbed to the outsiders brain infection and made an oc.

her name is Honda (yes, like the car) and she’s a greaser! she’s 18– turning 19 on september 14th!

more info +backstory under cut :)

she works at the dingo, mostly to protect the other girls that work there and occasionally break up fights (if she isn’t in them)

she moved to tulsa with her mother when she was 7 in 1955, and ended up neighbors with the curtis family! their mothers got along, so she met the boys by being invited over for playdates (and may or may not be the reason why ponyboy learned to run so fast due to her chasing him)

two-bit and steve were darry and soda’s friends back then, so she’d play with them occasionally as well

her mother died the day after she turned 18– and during her grieving period she relied heavily on mr. and mrs. curtis, but they ended up getting into a car crash only a couple months later.

both honda and the curtis brothers were hit really hard by their parents deaths and having no one else to rely on, so they ended up bonding a lot during this period

honda has respect for darry and how he took responsibility to care for the boys, and helps him occasionally even when she struggles to take care of her own situation

she cares for soda pony and johnny like her little brothers :)

she graduated from high school, but gave up going to college after her mom died

she actually was a surprisingly good student

hated seeing darry have to give up his dreams of college— tried to desperately work jobs to help them save but it was never enough

also cried with soda when they couldn’t buy mickey mouse

can often be found on shift at the dingo, working another job, or sleeping on the couch at the curtis house

she’d often roughhouse with the rest of the gang & join in rumbles

she, dally, and two-bit would go around doing stupid shit, but if they catcalled any girls she’d punch them

sometimes two-bit will ask her how to get with girls and she’ll just stare at him like 😐

another chocolate cake violator.

she’s rather proud of the muscles she’s built up, though it does get her some weird looks sometimes

she’s friends with the other girls at the dingo because she takes care of them, sometimes she’ll go hang out with them because she’s worried about some guy picking on them (they just think she wants to hang out though)

loves her beat up red pickup truck that runs on hopes and dreams

i have more of her seeping into the very crevices of my brain but i think it may be best to leave off here today 🙏

Did a little doodle of Honda when she first moved to Tulsa :)

idk if this is what actual 7 year olds look like.

drawing of my dear little daughter.. i love her so much guys its insane!!!
