As I have quite a lot of OC art I haven't shared, this week is going to be #OCArtWeek, where I share at least 1 drawing every day.

First up was my attempt at giving Clear and Tay winter clothing, but I liked Clear's outfit enough that I made it the new default instead.

#Art #Clear #Tay

Clear and Tay, OCs, in a minimalist style.
Clear is wearing a white shirt, with rolled up sleeves, a short grey tie, and over that is a vest that closes at the shoulder and a dark blue gun harness, with a strap over her chest, down her torso and connecting to a belt, before continuing down to mid thigh, with straps around said thighs.
She is wearing grey trousers and dark blue boots that go just above her ankles.
She is also wearing hand-wraps that cover most of her forearms.
She has long purple hair, in a ponytail, though some of it is loose and going down her front, and a tail that is the same colour, as are her fox ears.
She is standing with her gun pointed upwards, and her other hand on her hip.
Tay is wearing a full length taupe skin tight suit, with dark brown stripes down the arms and legs, and a zipper down the entire length of the front.
Over that she is wearing a brown jacket with long puffy sleeves.
She is not wearing shoes.
Her hair is grey and in a bun, with shoulder length bangs, and she has long grey bunny ears and a tiny grey tail.
She is holding two massive swords, ready to strike.

Here is the same drawing but with their original outfits.

I definitely like this outfit for Tay a lot more, because I have a thing for short leather jackets over body hugging suits.

Lastly, here is me seeing if a darker colour would be better for Clear, and while I do like it, personality wise she needs to wear white.

The same as the first image, but Clear is now wearing a dark grey shirt, and her weapon, gun harness and boots are dark brown.

I really need to do a fresh install at some point, but I just don't know which one.
I'm currently running Nobara, which I like, but there is always drama amongst the management.
I used to go Fedora, but they want to start including "AI" shit, and that is a big nope.

She is actually wearing something closer to a tights/dress-pants thing, you just can't see that because that is her primary colour scheme 😝.
Her relaxed outfit is shorts though, even in winter ☺️.

Here is a very quick Jesse Faden from Control as I recently played through that again.

#Art #Control #JesseFaden

Jesse Faden from Control, in a minimalist style.
She is flying through the air with her arms behind her for speed, one of which is holding her signature pistol.
She is wearing a leather jacket which is open so you can see the top underneath.

In 2004, Parisian police were conducting a training exercise in the french catacombs and found, after moving past a desk and a tape playing audio of snarling dogs, a fully functional movie theater and bar. When they returned 3 days later, the equipment was gone, with a note: “Do not try to find us.”

Members of the force's sports squad, responsible
- among other tasks - for policing the 170 miles of tunnels, caves, galleries and catacombs that underlie large parts of Paris, stumbled on the complex while on a training exercise beneath the Palais de Chaillot, across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower.
After entering the network through a drain next to the Trocadero, the officers came across a tarpaulin marked: Building site, No access.
Behind that, a tunnel held a desk and a closed-circuit TV camera set to automatically record images of anyone passing. The mechanism also triggered a tape of dogs barking, "clearly designed to frighten people off," the spokesman said.
Further along, the tunnel opened into a vast 400 sq metre cave some 18m underground, "like an underground amphitheatre, with terraces cut into the rock and chairs".

There the police found a full-sized cinema screen, projection equipment, and tapes of a wide variety of films, including 1950s film noir classics and more recent thrillers. None of the films were banned or even offensive, the spokesman said.
A smaller cave next door had been turned into an informal restaurant and bar. "There were bottles of whisky and other spirits behind a bar, tables and chairs, a pressure-cooker for making couscous," the spokesman said.
"The whole thing ran off a professionally installed electricity system and there were at least three phone lines down there."
Three days later, when the police returned accompanied by experts from the French electricity board to see where the power was coming from, the phone and electricity lines had been cut and a note was lying in the middle of the floor: "Do not," it said, "try to find us."

Of course it was.
Otherwise Count Chocula would also have been included.
