The contrast of scrungly boy Cheats suddenly looking all clean and fancy and dressed up is so good...
a really tiny scrungly drawing of a little guy holding a knife, blushing and looking vindicative. Text reads "i wam kis".

09 armor

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

Like all Higher Beings, Hemera has worn many different forms, but the armor is always a defining feature, the Beetle God's ability to reflect the light as well as blows.
Drawing of a man in spiky but glossy armor, reminiscent of a beetle's shiny shell. His face is hidden under a helmet save for the mouth. He has 4 arms and is holding up a sword with a jagged edge.

08 scar

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs
A digital drawing, headshot of a man, his eyes closed, mouth slightly open, relaxed. A scar on his face, a thin line across the brow and cheekbone, narrowly missing the eye, is blossoming with blue flowers.

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

(no text this time, i'm tired and uninspired)
Simple drawing of a man, cut off at the bust. He is wearing gloves and a headpiece that covers his shoulders. He is holding a golden mask with one hand, like he just took it off. His face is blank, devoid of any features.

06 home

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

Empty halls, silent rooms, closed doors. Nothing but the void, not even regret. Nothing but the void, the void, the bottomless void.
Drawing of a young man sitting on the floor, smoking a pipe and looking angry, or restless, or both. The smoke flows all around him, filling the space, outlining the ghosts of his family haunting him.

05 fire

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

Fire magic is generally regarded as an outlier, due to its destructive nature, ast he only element that affects the world by devouring matter. Many fire mages meet their end at the very hand of the force they claimed to control.
A digital drawing of a man extending a hand outwards, fire dancing in the palm of it, flashing in front of his face. You can only see his smile.

04 journey

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

It used to be tradition in some Spider clans to have young adults journey alone for a few months, prove they can survive on their own and navigate the dangers of the world.
Orion told herself, "this is just like that. I'll be fine".
Digital drawing of a person with a backpack standing in the grass near a river, her long hair flowing in the wind. There's hills in the background, behind the grassy valley. The drawing is in a simple style, just lines and one light green square to define the edges of it.

03 forest

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

The Moth God is a keeper of secrets first and foremost, but he also acts as a guide, leading people to those secrets, or away from them.
Digital drawing of a forest. It is mossy green, open and inviting, the sun shining through the canopy. Branches from some trees outline a presence, or perhaps an absence? A prometheus moth sits at the apex of those branches.

02 magic

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs

The web is a matrix that channels energy towards its center. Typically, spells will be inscribed along the web to affect a purpose to it, but a blank web can simply be used to charge energy into a person, typically with the purpose of facilitating healing.
A drawing of a typical orbweaver web, concentric circles converging towards a person in the middle. You can see magic accumulating towards the center of the web in the form of small sparkles.

01 beginning

Gaia the earth goddess. She is believed to be so old she has seen the very beginning of Fae History. Some say she might have been the original creator.

#CastorArt #OC-tober #CastorOCs
Drawing of a centipede-woman, her entire body covered in a chitinous carapace, her face hidden by a helmet-like structure. She is holding a single blue spark between her hands, and her long segmented body curls around itself in a protective manner.

Le champignon il était comme ça en fait
Short comic by Kate Beaton titled "Javert is in slash fiction". Jean Valjean is pressing himself dramatically against a wall, his back to Javert but looking back at me. "So, Javert", he says, "you FOUND me", and he arches his back, showing off his ass. Still very dramatically. And a bit glamorously too. Javert, looking mildly confused and a bit bewildered but still determined, "Yes well Valjean you are under arrest for-" "Handcuff THIS". Valjean is not shown in the last frame as he says this so we shall never know what Javert should "handcuff". But we can guess.

And another DTIYS, feat. my OC Nyctimus (I think she and Talia could vibe) @sygnin.com
I originally meant to just do a quick drawing but I was having fun and got carried away and bam, colors happened

#Sygnin13k #CastorArt
A digital illustration picturing 2 women posing dramatically like they're on the cover of a magazine. One has light purple skin and 6 eyes as well as incredibly long white hair flowing down like a waterfall. She's dressed in a crop top and tight leather pants and a b lack mask covers her mouth and nose. She's crouched down, one hand on the floor, looking straight at the camera with an intimidating stare. The other one has pale skin, long fiery red hair and yellow eyes. She's wearing leater clothes with spikes and studs, and her long elf ears bear several piercings. She's standing with her knees bent, leaning down towards the other woman and also looking straight at the camera, smiling confidently.

I've been really in the mood of drawing other people's OCs ever since Artfight ended... And I've also been struggling with finding ideas for drawings, so this is a great opportunity!

I hope I did her justice!!

I'm gonna be super biased and say this one, because bugsssssss (but i also really like the pinup drawing of Saoirse and Mosaic, it's very nice and soft and i love the anatomy in it)
Digitally illustrated height chart of the life cycle of an insectoid alien species. The pile of 10 pictured eggs are oval in shape and light beige, ca 15cm tall, they take a year to incubate. The 1st instar grub looks similar to beetle grubs with 6 legs, a pale body and darker red head, ca 15cm tall/40cm long. This stage lasts for ca 5 years. The 2nd instar grub stage takes 10 years and looks like a mix of a beetle grub and a trilobite beetle. It is ca 30cm tall/1m long and has very pronounced mandibles. The next stage is a pupa standing on its tail tip at 90cm. It is golden brown in color and looks similar to the adult variant. The adult is in a hexapedal stance (on all six legs). It looks like a more brutal version of a female trilobite beetle (Platerodrilus paradoxus specifically). Its limbs are longer and it looks like it could run very fast. It has 2 pairs of dull white eyes. It stands 120cm tall at the shoulder and is 405cm long.

A digital painting of a wild carrot flower with 6 flies and 5 wasps sitting on it peacefully. The flower, white on a bright blue background, looks like a circular mass of clouds in the sky.

I may be stupid...

#CastorArt #HollowKnight
A short black and white comic starring me, a Hollow Knight player, represented as the Knight. I am walking into deepnest (you can see the dead bugs with spears in them in the background), thinking to myself "Deepnest time!", looking relaxed, a bit lethargic maybe. I then stop dead in my tracks, because "Wait a sec, I don't have the dream nail!!", before going "Ah, whatever, I'll just unlock the station-". Then I stop again, and you can see a little loading icon in my thought bubble. Finally I turn around, enraged and crying. "I DON'T HAVE THE DAMN LANTERN...". It's a tragedy. I have to farm geo now. Fuck my life. A 2 frame comic representing me, a Hollow Knight player, as the Knight. The first frame is just me, doing that one meme face with an exaggeratingly confident smile, thinking to myself "I beat Soul Master so easily... Killing Nosk will be a piece of cake." Cut to the second frame where Nosk is peacefully munching on my corpse, as I think "Ok, that's just embarrassing..."

I'm replaying Hollow Knight in preparation for Silksong... I haven't touched the game in 3 years so I'm doing pretty good, all things considered!

#CastorArt #HollowKnight
A screenshot of the date I last played Hollow Knight on according to Steam (March 31st 2022) with a doodle of the Knight, their back turned to the camera, looking at the screenshot, thinking "Oh boy... here we go...". 4 doodles of me, represented by the Knight, playing Hollow Knight and suffering from 3 main issues: Bad at climbing: you see the Knight jump towards a platform and fail to grab onto it. Falls into the same hole 4 times in a row: the knight is dashing straight into a pool of acid. Too eager to hug: the Knight is dashing straight into one of the Mantis Lords. But also, still first-tried this guy: The Knight is standing on the corpse of Soul Master, wearing sunglasses and doing the victory sign at the camera.

I love my sketchbooks, they're fun and colorful and full of random stuff! Can't recommend using a bunch of stupid cheap pens and fucking around!!

A sketchbook spread. You can see colored drawings and doodles. A page from a notepad with a sketch has been stuck on it. A sketchbook spread. It has clean and messy sketches both, some drawn with a pencil, others with colored pens. A sketchbook spread. It has some pencil sketches and colored drawings, mostly Rain World fanart.

look at my very normal keyboard
A screenshot of part of an AZERTY laptop keyboard, showing the azerty part of it, except the D key has been replaced with the dollar key. Many of the keycaps around have had their paint worn down by use and you can't read the letters very well anymore.

And WHO is this handsome fella?

#CastorArt #CastorOCs
A character reference sheet for the same character, in a different form. The title reads "Asmodeus: true form". He looks different here, even taller and more slender, his mask is gone, but his face is hidden under a thick layer of what looks like blood ; it stains his entire neck and the base of his shoulders. His neck looks longer, and his eyes are 2 white dots. His entire body is now covered in soft feathers, his arms have reverted to a wing, with 4 short, clawed fingers emerging at the apex. He still has his other pair of wings in the back. He is also still wearing the dress, it covers his entire lower body, feet included. The halo still floats behind his head, shining brighter. The reference sheet has a front view and a back view, as well as a simple sketch that shows his profile, revealing he has five spikes in the back, emerging from his spine.

... but wait! There's more!

#CastorArt #CastorOCs
A reference sheet of the same character, unchained. The title reads "Asmodeus free". Without the chains to hold it closed, his hooded robe is opened and flows behind him like a long veil, revealing an elegant white night gown, every so slightly sheer, showing the color of his skin through the fabric on his chest and stomach. Despite the chains being gone, he is still wearing the golden manacles. His arms, free, hang at his sides, the forearms covered in a dark red color reminiscent of dried blood. The reference sheet shows a front view and a back view, and also has a simple little sketch of him holding his arm up to his neck in a sassy manner
