❤️ Distant memories, but a familiar face. I think Marlene (she/her) and Agnes (she/her) used to be close at one point. Now Agnes wishes she could forget Marlene, while Marlene wants to cling onto the memories/past with her.
Art of Agnes and Marlene under a silvery tree, with snow blanketing its branches. Agnes is dressed in a red dress and fluffy grey coat. She holds a camera as she looks wistfully to the side, as if reflecting on the past, and the photos she just took. Opposite from her is Marlene, manipulating some metal droplets. She seems to fade into the background.

🔔 Backstory of Corliss and Stanley (both she/her), inspired by Headlock (Imogen Heap)! Corliss was part of nobility and Stanley was a knight. Both felt trapped by the lives they were in, so they ran away to follow their dreams
(cont’d👇)
Panel 1 is set in the past, where Corliss is part of nobility. She’s inside her room, looking unhappy with. Outside her window, Stanley, in armor, walks past her. Text reads, “You've been walking, you've been hiding, and you look half dead half the time.”. In panel 2, Corliss peeks out her window to see Stanley, head lowered. She notices that Stanley also looks unsatisfied with the life she’s got. The text reads “Monitoring you, like machines do.” In panel 3, Corliss gives some encouraging words to Stanley, as she crafts a bell for her first workshop. Text reads, “you've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye.” Panel 4 is set some years later. Stanley holds out a hand to Corliss, beckoning her to leave her old life behind. Corliss smiles as tears swell in her eyes. Text reads “you know you're better than this.”

💚 “On Sundays, we wear green!”
Given several transition metals (Fe, Ni, Mn, Cu) have green compounds or ions…I thought. What if they all wore green together? And yes, Corliss came up with the idea of color coordinated outfits.
Art of (from left to right) Fergus, Nicola, Manon and Corliss in green outfits! Fergus wears a plaid shirt and cargo pants, and he looks at the others in silence. Nicola dons a three piece suit with a patterned vest. She smugly points to herself. Manon, dressed in a dark green cardigan and skirt, winks at the viewer. Corliss is wearing a green peplum top with a patterned skirt. She looks at the others, grinning. Dialogue reads, Fergus: “…” Nicola: “Hey, I look so cool in this!” Manon: “…I actually kind of like this outfit!”. Corliss: “Wow, you all look great in green!”

🔔 Corliss (she/her) and Stanley (she/her) work on projects together! These entail modifying old toys and building gadgets out of them, combining Stanley’s interest in collecting toys + Corliss’s love for building electronics.
Art of Corliss and Stanley, the personifications of copper and tin respectively. They’re building gadgets together. Corliss is gleefully handing red and blue wires to Stanley, who is soldering a circuitboard. They sit at a table cluttered with objects, including bells, metal sheets, and wheels. The background is of a workshop, with brown walls lined with pipes, and bells hanging overhead.

🏎️ Alex (he/him) and Magnhild (she/her) love motorsports, and they visit each other to watch the races. These visits also allow them work to on a favourite activity of theirs: making vehicle models together!
Art of Alex (with goggles) and Magnhild (with ribbon), the personifications of aluminium and magnesium respectively. They’re cheering as they watch motorsports on TV together! The both of them sit in Mag’s room, which has green walls and furniture. Decorating the room are potted plants, race car wheels, and string lights with photographs that hang overhead.

Oskar is associated with delphiniums, as they fit his light hearted and energetic personality!

Cargan is associated with clematis, since they fit his creative and inventive side.

🎃 Happy late Halloween! Sadly I had no time or energy for a themed piece so…here‘s Corliss (she/her), Agnes (she/her), and Sulien (he/him) facing off against monsters! They have a history of battling them, so when they encounter one again in the nearby meadows… 👀
Corliss, Agnes and Sulien battling a blobby purple monster. They all are determined to defeat it. Corliss uses her electricity powers, Agnes wields a silver sword, and Sulien releases sulfur powder from his hands.

🍂 Another fall themed piece! Magnhild (she/her) is happy to see so many leaves, she can’t help but talk to Alex (he/him) about them! Stanley and Corliss (both she/her) are also here, and looks like they’re working on a new gadget??
Fall themed art of Alex, Magnhild, Corliss, and Stanley at a park. Magnhild excitedly shows Alex a red leaf she found, who listens as he drinks soda. Meanwhile, Corliss and Stanley fix up a gadget, that’s opened with its wires exposed. The park’s foliage is red and orange, and leaves flutter around everyone.

🎇 It’s not often I draw my OCs using their powers, so I thought Magnhild (she/her) would be perfect for drawing them out! She has the ability to make bright white fire…which she likes showing off for fun, or uses to stun any enemies.
Art of Magnhild, the personification of the element magnesium, wielding her powers. She’s cheekily sticking her tongue out, as a bright white flame envelopes her fingers. Sparks fly all around her. The text reads “Mg” and “12”.

📦 Corliss (she/her) notices some important documents are missing! Who could’ve possibly took them, and what could be in those documents that was of interest? Hopefully this won’t cause any problems later down the line…
6 panel comic of my OC Corliss, the personification of copper. Panel 1: Corliss enters a storeroom, filled with rows of grey shelves. There’s brown boxes and papers scattered across the floor. Panel 2: Excited to be back, Corliss exclaims, “Storeroom, we meet again!” Panel 3: She looks around the room. Puzzled by the state it’s in, she remarks, “It’s great being back here…but wow, what a mess!” Panel 4: Some boxes catch Corliss’s eye. She utters “What the-?” as she turns towards a box. Panel 5: Corliss picks up a box, that seems to be of importance. Looking into it she exclaims, “Our work documents!” The background is orange. Panel 6: A close up of the box, with speed lines going towards it. The box is labeled “for work only”. There’s supposed to be documents in it, but it’s empty. Corliss cries out, “T-they’re gone!”.

Day 17: color palette challenge + serene(?)

🪞 Agnes (she/her) was the first to arrive at the Noble Metals’ dinner party! So she gets to enjoy a serene night to herself (for a while). I wanted to experiment with a magazine format here
Magazine cover styled art of Agnes, the personification of silver. It’s colored only in blue and teal. Agnes sits at a deep blue table, about to enjoy a grilled scallop dish. Plates, wine glasses, and candles line the table. Behind her, the room’s decorated with pictures, and a mirror that frames her head. The text reads: “The Elemental - September 25”, “Exclusive: Interview with Agnes and Aurelian”, “Behind the scenes: What secrets could the Life Council be holding?” and “Highlights from this year’s Noble Metals banquet, pg 44-47”.

Day 16: tragic(?) + color palette, so you get Marlene angst!
⚗️AKA Marlene first notices she has poison powers. I’m unsure if this happens before or after her failed (final) apprenticeship, but the realisation of that distresses her.
Drawing of Marlene, colored entirely in shades in peach, pink and lavender. She’s holding a wilting flower, its petals falling off as she looks on in tears.

Day 15: villain + color palette challenge
☠️ Had to draw a CoA antag for this! Meet Arsenius (he/him), a sly yet cutthroat person determined to get to the top of anything (including events/projects). Even if it means sabotaging others’ work.
Arsenius, the personification of arsenic, looking menacingly as he wields his poison powers and holds a piece of paper. He’s colored in shades of red, amber, and brown. The text reads “As”.

🌟 I wanted to use the color palette challenges as an opportunity to draw OCs I don’t pay as much attention to!
So here’s Fergus (he/him)…my stern yet responsible metalworker :0
Portrait of Fergus, the personification of iron, looking to the side. It’s colored in shades of brown and pink. The background is yellow with pink patches resembling rust. The text reads “Fe”.

OCtober Day 10: Symbolism and themes
🐟 Marlene is associated with fishes, cinnabar moths, sea snakes, and foxgloves. Especially the latter 2, given her poison powers.

She also has ocean theming as she was born there + has an affinity for the sea :0
Art of Marlene, holding a mercury blob in her hands. She’s framed by foxgloves, sea snakes, fish and a cinnabar moth. The background is a deep blue ocean.

Most of the CoA characters live in an apartment building shaped like the periodic table!
Art of my OC Oskar, a blue haired person with a flower crown. They’re giving a tour of Atomland’s apartment estates, a green building shaped like a periodic table. The background is colored primrose yellow, green and teal. The piece is titled “Welcome to the Estates!”, with Oskar commenting “And yes, it’s shaped like the periodic table.” in a separate panel.

Day 3: Fave OC
My fave OCs rotate a lot, but currently it’s Corliss (she/her)! She was an unexpected fave, given how she was a more minor character previously…and now she’s the main in a story. Plus I keep drawing her and will continue doing so…!
Corliss working on a circuit board. She’s holding a solder iron and looking up. There’s blueprints, gears and wires scattered across the room. Corliss looking overjoyed.

Day 2: Old OC
This is for Magnhild (she/her)—she’s the one with spiky white hair + ribbon! She’s one of the
1st few OCs I created for CoA, and her design‘s the least changed out of them. I still like her + her friend Alex, so I hope I can work on them again!
Alex and Magnhild walking together. Alex and Magnhild riding a bike down a green hill, with Mag ready to take photos of the greenery! Yellow and white flowers dot the hill, and the blue sky is filled with big fluffy clouds. Text reads, “time for spring”. My OC Magnhild, standing amidst yellow sunflower fields. There’s a joyful grin on her face as she points to the sky. She’s holding up an orange marigold in one hand, and a lit sparkler in the other. Behind her is a navy blue sky at sunrise. Pink clouds and fireworks dot the skies itself.

Day 1: New OC
That would be Claude (they/she)— they’re the one with the apron + orange shirt! I’m still developing them, but they’re a jaded and sort of snarky artist. They’re affiliated with Marlene and Arsenius‘s assassins group 👁️
Art of Nicola (in green) and Claude (in yellow), the personifications of nickel and cadmium respectively. Nicola is looking worriedly at Claude, who’s turned away from her. She’s holding a phone, displaying a “are you there?” text that’s left on read. The background is green with orange and red splatters.

📷 A little sketchpage of Agnes fun facts…that turned out to be an excuse to draw alt outfits + hairstyles. I wanna draw her more often…
Sketchpage of Agnes, the personification of silver, partaking in several activities. This includes playing the flute, looking hesitantly into a cracked mirror, and commenting on films. In clockwise order, the text reads “plays the flute” , “not a fan of broken mirrors.”, “ reviews + analyses films in her free time”, and “Ag #47”. The background is a dark gray with silvery sparkles.

Hello I’m Aiks!! I make personifications of the periodic table and love experimenting with warm colors + backgrounds. In recent times I’ve been dabbling with comics 👀
Art of (in clockwise order) Corliss, Zane, Manon, Fergus, and Nicola having brunch at a cafe. There is a warm, cozy atmosphere to it. Corliss, dressed in blue, is talking as the others look at her. A wide array of food and drinks decorates the table. Golden rays of sunlight pour in from the windows, adding a radiant feel to the cafe. Art of Corliss, Agnes, and Aurelian, dressed in sparkly rose gold outfits. They are the personifications of copper, silver and gold respectively. Agnes and Aurelian are joyfully dancing. By contrast Corliss is looking away from them, with a despondent expression on her face. The three of them stand against a pink background patterned with roses. 10-panel comic of Agnes and Corliss, the personifications of silver and copper, conversing. Panel 1: Agnes and Corliss are walking down the apartment hallways. Text reads “one meeting later…”. Panel 2: Agnes remarks,” We should split up this investigation based on our strengths and interests.” Panel 3: Agnes continues speaking off-panel, “I mean, I'm a photographer—so I can document things”. Corliss intently listens to her. Panel 4: Corliss excitedly exclaims, “That sounds fantastic!”. Panel 5: Corliss rambles on, “If you document, then I can put together what you find.” Panel 6: Corliss gestures to the side, smiling and blurting out, “You know, like when we worked together!” Panel 7: She exclaims, “Like back when we were in that team!” The background is red, with silhouettes of Agnes and Corliss overlooking a steaming flask. Panel 8 and 9: Close ups of Agnes’s and Corliss’s eyes, widened in shock. It’s as if Corliss brought up something that they didn’t want to talk about. Panel 10: Agnes and Corliss look at each other in silence, the background a deep orange color. Art of Manon, the personification of manganese, walking with two books she just got. She’s wearing a striped pink blouse and a deep purple skirt, and has a smile across her face. The background is violet with dendrite patterns
