Wow! Who knew the outdoors could be so calming! I guess it really is great. Wait a minute...is that @ambriel-angstwitch's Kit!? OMG HIIIII. I decided to try something different and draw over a photo and I think it turned out great! I really like the lighting in this one and I hope you like it too @ambriel-angstwitch! Next up is @got-saged-intheprocess but before I do that I'll be introducing the first two out of eight of my Gunntech OCs tomorrow! Stay tuned!
HI! THANK YOU!! I'm so happy to see my girl. Out in nature as she should be. (Girl spends way to much time in a facility, but such is the life of a Gunntech Trainee). I think the lighting is so good! The combination of real photo and drawing is so fun! I love the layering and colors on Kit.

AHHH it's @mysticarts Gunntech OC! I just love the concept of Kailani and her design overall! Funny how this is my first post on this account and I'm not even doing artfight either. I also find it funny that I posted this before my own Gunntech OCs (there's like eight of them). I hope I did her justice @mysticarts. There might also be another Gunntech OC that I do fanart for (watch out @tea-cuz-why-not). Also keep an eye out for my Gunntech OCs character designs, so far, I've gotten two done that I'll be posting soon enough and I'm in the process of writing out a story for my four main escapee OCs (will be on AO3 soon). See you soon!
Is that something lurking in the dark??? Hold on, let me get my flashlight 🔦 🔦 🔦. OMG, IT'S @tea-cuz-why-not'S KORE FAULKNER! I love how this turned out, though I do wish I had drawn her closer so you don't have to zoom in to see her better, oh well. My next target is @adrian-alvro MUHAHAHA. (I also realized as I was drawing this, it looks like Kore is being mind controlled. KORE IS NOT, DO NOT WORRY FELLOW CITIZENS). Let's hope my next post won't be in the dead of the night and maybe even about my own Gunntech ocs and not me obsessing over other's (KEEP THEM COMING PLEASE AND THANK YOU, IM HAVING SO MUCH FUN DOING THIS).
Man, I could go for a snack...What the!? What's @adrian-alvro's Gunntech OCs doing in my kitchen!? Adrian, off my fridge! And you too Micah!OUT, BOTH OF YOU! Also photos with @tea-cuz-why-not's Kore and @ambriel-angstwitch's Kit on the side of the fridge. @ambriel-angstwitch , you better watch out because you're next, MUHAHAHHA! (I'm on fire with these!)
artfight attack on @mysticarts @murdercat350 @vanchive
become attacked ig
I'm not all that proud of it but I'm not good enough at drawing digitally nor at drawing rooms to actually improve it HOWEVER I'm still happy that I got to do this an I may be wishing that there were more of you there so that I could attack you but whatever
Later than a lot of peoples Pride posts but it’s Pride all month so it’s here now!
I am so out of practice with drawing. I genuinely haven’t drawn anything since January (other than some small simple sketches when I was bored at work).
I’m happy bring Nox back into the fold. I love them so much so I was happy to draw them again.
I’m just now realizing both of my pride posts have had Asexual representation. Like Kit Nox is Asexual. While Kit is Aroace, Nox is not. They haven’t put a label on their romantic attraction but they do experience it.
I have a tradition of starting my sketchbooks off with a piece incorporating song lyrics, this one has Easier and Safe Ship Harboured by the crane wives
Don’t look too closely at any detail I drew most of this today and while on a bus so it’s a bit of a mess
Also the yellow patches of color were actually supposed to be grey but the watered down ink mixed with the cheap water based pens and made a bit of a mess
This is so sick! I can't even describe how much I love this.
The way that Kit's hair is flowing across the page. The way the bandages almost look like they're growing and expanding out of Kore! The duos placement on the page is just so good. The composition of the piece is fantastic.
I love these songs (but you already knew that). They are some of the most central songs in my Kit playlist. We'd already talked about how Verse 1 is Kit and Verse 2 is Kore in Easier (which I don't believe I expanded on when I told you that but I so could). But I think in this piece Easier is Kore's song because overall it's definitely more Kore's song than Kit's because the chorus speaks more to her narrative. She is the one who takes the chance to be someplace else in the hopes that it will be better. She is the one that has to wonder if she were someone else would it be easier because Kit seems to have an easier time accepting the way they live. Plus with the bridge she is the one who learned to lie, she lies to her superiors in Gunntech and even to Kit (at least by omission). She's learned to grow in this hostile environment. She held it for awhile but unlike Kit she learned how to let it go. She's taken and she's kept what she could. And she's the one who has to learn how to sleep with her guilt and with all that she's gone through. She wants to be able to come to terms with everything
But I will say that the Outro is a part of the song that's very Kit to me. She doesn't make any plans to escape or take down Gunntech because it is all that she has. Everything that was done to her it's still where almost all of her childhood memories happened. All she has to hold onto is the belief that the good out ways the bad, that things are getting better. Because every generation there's less complications with the process.
It's also pretty obvious that Safe Ship Harbored is the Kit song. I mean it's what I named her fic after. She's the one who's securely anchored to Gunntech. She's been thoroughly worn down so that she trusts in Gunntech. She doesn't aim for the ocean beyond, just what she knows and what she's told. She's the one who let Kore down by being unable to sail away. She let the faith fall.
I honestly kind of really like the effect of the yellow. I think it stands out really nicely and draws the eyes attention.
oh don't worry, the universe has not collapsed from you pulling a me/silly
I'm glad you like it, the whole concept of the drawing was inspired by your piece with Kit in her cell with her hair around her, then came the rest
Oh yeah absolutely to all of that, these songs sit firmly in their playlist and has no intention of leaving. Though with the safe ship, I wonder if Kore wore her down too, not only with her arguments, but also with how she made sure Kit had a friend, an anchor if you will, at GT.
Oh I'm glad I can make something inspiring. I like that peice. It was a fun one to make.
They are such good songs for them for real. That's so true. The two of them are a huge part in how long they stayed with Gunntech. Kit was Kore's reason for staying as long as she did and Kore unintentionally created that anchor. She made it so that it was the center of her happy memories.

POV: the girl helping nurse you back to health is kinda cute
everyone cheer and clap May is finally here.
aside form being married to Alina, she is also a daughter of a GunnTech scientist who later helped Alina escape the company, which did result in May loosing said mother .
[more story and close ups under the cut]
Despite GunnTech having a surprisingly loose policy when it comes to their scientists bringing their kids to work, looking at you Elodie, May's mother kept her as far from the Company as she could, as if to shield her from it, make the company forget she even existed.
This, however, did not stop May from looking up to her mother and she invested her time into med school, slowly making her way up to one day become a nurse.
After overhearing a frantic phone call her mother had with another scientist about helping Alina fake her death, May volunteered to help with it.
In the safe house, May aided in the initial bringing Alina back from the brink of death, and was present when she woke up.
The two did have something of a rocky start, May being particularly annoyed at Alina’s loud nature and the younger woman being annoyed back in turn at May’s no-nonsense attitude. It wasn’t long lived though, as they did end up growing closer together in the time that May was spending at the safehouse.
The developing friendship and budding feelings were however interrupted by the news of May’s mother’s death. A car accident, the person on the phone said, she didn’t even make it to the hospital. But it was obvious that it was no accident. After all, one doesn’t leave GunnTech in anything other than a coffin.
A few tense weeks passed, during which May tried to put as much distance between herself and the reason for her mother’s death while the other people involved lay low to avoid Gunn’s attention. During that time, the two felt like the only thing left in the world for each other, and pressed by necessity they begun venturing out into the suburbs to buy groceries and such.
Their outings were risky, yes, but allowed a much needed break from awkward silence and reminders of a life lost. That and they let Alina get reacquainted with society after years of herodom and a significant memory loss.
Maybe that’s why, even after things died down and one other person involved could come take over, May didn’t leave but instead made her home in the safehouse.
I’m not exactly sure how much time passed until they acknowledged the feelings they had for each other, and even less sure about when they got married, but I do know that May didn’t hesitate to say yes when proposed to, and fussed over the little details during the ceremony and a small party afterwards.
Either way, you know the drill, she is now the tea-loving health consultant and enjoyer of flowery dresses, living in a safehouse with her wife.
Yes I absolutely stole the pattern from MEDICINE, I can’t help it they make such beautiful dresses
Anyways, I’m back! I’ll try to post some more gt stuff soon( I bought a whole sketchbook to draw GunnTech stuff I’m DETERMINED) but I did have to fight my MHA hyperfixation to get this one done and the only reason why I did is because I need it for ArtFight… which is probably also the reason I will be somewhat absent still as I also need to draw as many refs as possible before it begins so yeah. But feel free to ask questions about her and anything else.
I already loved her from what I knew before but it is even more now. She’s so cute! I love her style.
Her backstory is so fun. I love a parent who is solidly good in the Gunntech AU. So many of them are bad parents or at the very least make some dubious decisions. But May and her mom are such good people and I am happy they have a good relationship.
Their relationship is so sweet. It’s fun to see how it developed. How their personalities clash right away but they grow close.
Happy Pride month! I have not been very active on Tumblr. Will see if I can get back into the swing of it now
I’m so glad you like her, it’s been a while since I designed a character who dresses feminine so its’s good to know I did well enough
Yeah, I wanted to make a standout character amongst her kind… even if I did then kill her off immediately
Thanks :} I’m still figuring out the specifics but maybe one day I’ll write something about it(I say ignoring the three wip chapters sitting in my computer)
I drew Connor and Elliot for day 1 since I’m in my gunntech era, ima try to draw a different ship, ima try to draw as many as I can before pride month ends.
