celeste and friends intro post desperately needed updating so! here it is. my silly little furries that refuse to leave my head #kjocs #polarityskies #ocsky #originalcharacter

Intro post to my oc story polarity skies. to the left is Celeste, standing with her sword and Elysia in clouds over her. to the right is Laz, standing with strange black limb-like appendages coming from behind him and the shadow of Ambrose in the distance.
Text reads:
Celeste is a warrior fighting in the name of Elysia, a cosmic dimensional being as the self-proclaimed guardian of Earth. Lazarus is the catalyst of the apocalypse, made into a weapon by another cosmic being named Ambrose, Elysia's adversary. Celeste was tasked to eliminate Laz in order
to save the world, but ends up befriending him instead...he's a nice guy! What follows is Celeste's understandingof the world being turned on her head and a power struggle for the mortal realm with the fate of it all resting in her hands.

Image of chibi versions of Celeste and friends with text. From left to right: Celeste, Laz, Rosella, Flash, Krystal, Takeshi, Juliette, Lafayette, and Scout.

Text reads:
Celeste and Laz conjure a plan to defeat Ambrose and his cult known as the Hearth. Ambrose is trying to gain more power by stealing life cores, which are physical souls, cosmic beings like him can reach unthinkable levels of power when collecting them so they have to stop him before it's too late!
On their journey they meet unusal and unlikely allies including a mortal mercenary named
Rosella that starts out as Celeste's foe, a tech whiz named Flash and many more!

Celeste's fellow knights of Elysia, Juliette and Lafayette are strong allies of Celeste though conflict ensues over Celeste protecting Laz...

Image of three portraits of the executives. Wesley on the left whose face appears on a computer screen surrounded by wires, tech, screens, and a robotic heart in the middle. Sylvain in the middle with a monster behind him (her name is Mira dont worry about it), holding a giant battleaxe. And to the right are Lyra and Orion.

Text reads:
Standing in Celeste's way are the Executives, Ambrose's most powerful acolytes.
Wesley is a technological genius that can stream his conciousness through computer networks. Lyra makes armies of shadow creatures including Orion, her best friend and strongest shadow.The toughest of all is Sylvain, a former knight of Elysia's that warns Celeste of Elysia's misdeeds and ill intentions for the Earth. Sylvain wants to take both Ambrose and Elysia out and destroy Laz to truly save the world,
but Celeste refuses to work with him.

Image and text. Celeste to the left, facing the viewer in an orange sunset looking cheerful. The right is also Celeste, with part of her torso missing and inside is an amalgamation of strange stands and a four-pointed object in the middle. She is facing away from the viewer looking into a darkening sky.

Text reads:
Whether friend or foe, everyone is trying to survive and prevent the end of the world in their own way. Celeste eventually has to fight those she initially cared for deeply. Celeste has to understand herself and her role in saving the world, learning who and what she's fighting for, who to protect, and putting trust in others and especially herself.

Yeah!! Making little fun stuff like boards or silly things to put your ocs in can help!

Sometimes making AUs of OCs with friends too is fun! But yeah hopefully you can get that spark again, I 100% know how it feels

Sometimes also just drawing something else for a while or looking at inspiration like making Pinterest boards etc can help too!

Good luck!!

Personally I’ve found challenging myself whether it’s art or writing has helped keep steam for working on them!
I’m not much of a writer but writing a scene I imagine in their head is sometimes a fun jumpstart
Or wanting to push myself in an art piece and putting an oc in it can help too

artwork of my OCs Laz and Celeste (they are not a couple I swear) dancing together in a forest with leaves falling and piles of leaves on the ground. They are holding hands and Celeste is looking carefree and Laz has a more awkward expression on his face.

#art #ocs

digital illustration of 5 dollys (my oc) against a mostly white background. one has her leaning against a gray brick wall while holding a cigarette saying "they don't have french fries on cyclonious?! fuck!!" and she's wearing a sleeveless gray top with the harley davidson super faded printed on it with denim shorts and black combat boots. next one is her with her back to you and holding up the sign of the horns while wearing an oversized olive jacket layered over a black dress and fishnet tights. next one is her lying lazily on the couch wearing a black short sleeve shirts layered over a long sleeve black/white striped shirt and purple fraying shorts and black sandals as she wears a deadpan expression with an arm up and with red eyes (she just got high) while saying "now? you want me to use my brain right *now*?" next one is her with her arms crossed, annoyed wearing a white ribbed sleeveless crop top and black/dark gray striped pants while saying "what are you, the small tits police?" aaaand lastly there's dolly looking off to the side while posing with two fingers pointed at her while smiling and wearing a white dio holy diver shirt with a faded denim vest with spikes layered over it, a frayed black denim skirt with a belt, black/green striped kneesocks, and black sort of punk type boots i guess.
