Since it's the halloweeny season, I decided to finally finish drawing my girl Huifang! She's been patiently sitting in my OC WIP file as just a face and bangs since... at least march? maybe earlier? .w.;;
She's a ghost girl who loves halloween and playing pranks!

#SwemOCs #OCsky

Concept art of my character Huifang. She's a ghostly pale girl with orange eyes and dark purple hair that's tied into two messy pigtails. Her outfit consists of a jirai kei esque skirt and shirt combo with a mixture of white lace and black bat wing embellishments. Her skirt is black and purple plaid and her shoes are black heels with bat wings on the sides. she's wearing black and purple striped thigh-high stockings. She's gesturing with her hands up and curled into claws, and she has black coffin nails. She has a black bow in her hair with a skull covering the knot as well as an orange pumpkin on her shirt's bow.

Seriously, if the art is strong, some color variation simply doesn't matter that much. The average person will never notice anyway and only you the artist know it didn't match exactly what you intended.

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

Tweet by @night margin "digital artist woes" image of the same color gradient on various screen (monitor 1 appears very grey purple, phone appear VERY pink, monitor 2 appears a more saturated purple, laptop appears brownish red, family's phone appears much darker and bluer etc.)

I lost my 50/50 to Dehya but still managed to grind enough for him 🙏 He's pwetty

I’m not a pixel artist, but I used to make little pixel chibis in ms paint back in high school and I missed doing it so I tried making some in clip studio 😭 still wip but here are some of my oc babies! Bolin, Echo (post/corruption), Qiao, Aelita, Leon, Macaroon and Bell!

#SwemOCs

Work in progress Pixel chibis of my original characters Bolin, Echo, Qiao, Aelita, Leon, Macaroon and Bell, over a light gray background. Their hair, skin and faces are drawn but not their clothes.

Swem 🌸 @lovesicklychee.bsky.social · 8d

I need to design and draw the rest of Bolin’s little thief crew— Tiramisu, a smug mysterious boyo, and Rhythm, a ragey gremlin boyo who games :’3
And Seeley’s treasure hunting squad- Rivot (girlie who builds robots) and Lilith (elegant recon lady)

Couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t getting subscription emails from AO3, figured the authors I follow were going through a dry spell- nope, my email decided to mark every AO3 email in the past month as spam 😭😭 rude!! I have so much to catch up on now!!

Swem 🌸 @lovesicklychee.bsky.social · 11d

I wanna make it to Sumeru TTwTT I like Inazuma’s vibe well enough but Sumeru is *so* pretty and foresty and the music is so pretty and the characters are so silly waaaaa

Swem 🌸 @lovesicklychee.bsky.social · 11d

Genshin is such a distracting game— like it distracts me from its own story 😭 I’ve played on and off since it first released and I haven’t even made it through Inazuma yet because it’s like events! Spiral Abyss! Teapot! Genius Invocation! Side quests! Grinding and grinding and grinding and—

Ooo I feel like both can be true honestly! Giving a character you like a fault can also make you more forgiving of said fault, so maybe over time it’s easier to forgive yourself for it too 😭💗

I'll say it: I think its rly annoying and frankly amateurish that writers are constantly told their villains must be understandable or have sympathetic motivation to be interesting or realistic when all our big villains irl are in fact rich, stupid, selfish, trickster dillweeds and always have been

Does anyone else insert small things you don’t like about yourself into your ocs so that they feel more… idk acceptable? Manageable? 😭 like “I hate when *I* do this, but when Blorbo does it then it’s endearing so maybe it’s not so bad”

Redrew my oc Macaroon because I wanted to finally make her chubby like I've been intending to for months, and as an added bonus I can compare my style between now and last year when I drew her old art :'3 I also made some tweaks to her design ehehe

#OCsky #SwemOCs

A full-body concept art of a woman. She has fluffy black hair that falls at the bottom of her back, messy bangs, yellow eyes and a coconut eclair-shaped cat tail. She’s wearing an Orange winter hat with cat ears and a brown button eye, brown bulky fingerless gloves, a cream-colored slip dress, brown boots with white pompoms, dark brown thigh highs and a brown messenger bag. She has a brown ribbon around her neck with an oversized bell.

One of my meds got the dosage upped and I’m not sure if I’ve noticed an improvement in mood but they definitely make me the sleepiest little guy after I take them 😭 but I have been waking up earlier consistently so maybe they’re onto something 🤔

Swem 🌸 @lovesicklychee.bsky.social · 16d

Once again thinking about visual novel hours… I’m wondering if I want to try making a quick kinetic novel first for the sake of learning the medium properly 🤔 I tend to go into most projects with huge goals and never finish them .w.;;

Swem 🌸 @lovesicklychee.bsky.social · 17d

That's true 🤔 I may just stick with my "main" characters for now and branch out later as I think of names!
