The Misadventures of an Ink Creature @ink-creature-0717 - Tumblr Blog

Something isn’t right….

This… this isn’t how the story goes…

…

Ah well! Nothing we can do now.

This is an ask blog (and character account blog thing) for a Tear!Sans and Ink!Sans variant named Filament! The first chapter of the comic is being worked on, as are the last two asks—and the last pages—of the prologue. Asks are not open right now.

Fan art! Y’all make me shed happy tears whenever this creature is drawn

Filament's sheet is done! And it's midnight, so I'm gonna plug my phone in and not draw for a few hours.

Swag and Glitchy are there too. Kind of.

My creature is looking good, but I need a break.

The script for "The Misadventures of an Ink Creature" chapter 6 is done!

The original sheet showed off his missing arm. Which I kinda forgot to do on this one for a while. You can barely see it, just right under his scarf.

It was going to be more visible because I nearly forgot his bag. But then I remembered he has a bag. Sometimes I hate that bag.

Y'all wouldn't believe me if I said this thing isn't my favorite oc. Because I've drawn it so. Many. Times.

And, yes, I slightly tweaked the pose I did on the traditional sketch. I like this more. The other one felt too stiff. Its left leg will be moved inward a bit more.

Now it gets a new sheet so my friends can stop using the old one TwT

I made the old one almost a full year ago.

Wanna know a secret?

My birthday is next month! The date is actually in my username!

July 17th! I’m usually too busy to celebrate though. Gotta make sure everyone in the multiverse is taken care of! We really need more medical AU’s…

There’s a lot of therapist ones, weirdly enough. But I rarely find doctors or nurses. The science AU’s don’t really count. They might know more about patching monsters up than I do, but only a monster in the medical field knows how to properly set a bone back in place.

Don’t ask me why I know that. My bones are plush; I never need them to be put back.

I finished it! But I can't decide which version I like more...

I tried a different shading method and so far I like it more. It just took a while because the colors for the shadows weren't dark enough, so it just looked like weirdly colored spots on his clothes. Also, I took away his bow, bag, bracelets, and some stitched thing that's supposed to be on his shorts. We'll say it was on purpose and not that I forgot to add them.

Anyway, I've explained it before a few times, but Filament desires and can (sometimes) feel love. If he finds out someone likes him, he'll find himself catching feelings if he actually knows the person. Filament is capable of falling for someone first, it's just rare and he tends to reciprocate more often. Which just means he catches feelings second.

I don't enforce his sexuality, so while he is canonically on the aro/ace spectrum, I am fine with him being seen as other sexualities and even written or drawn with someone's personal headcanon(s).

Speed paint so you can watch my struggle and process:

My creator made me so beautiful :3

But they took my stuff. They took my stuff and won’t give it back.

Bleh.

Hey, Creator here! I just wanted to make a post as myself to kind of give an update on why things have been silent.

I am (as of writing this, it'll be posted when I'm home) at the hospital and have been all weekend. Not for anything major. Just something I'm going to have for the rest of my life. It doesn't affect my ability to write or draw, just think of it as a really painful stomachache.

Which is exactly how I found out there was something wrong with me. I won't give my exact diagnosis, but it only affects my stomach. I am capable of doing everything I was doing before since I don't do much strenuous labor.

They have put medicine in me that I'll have to get every few months until it either stops working or they find a cure. My stay at the hospital has been very pleasant and I've gotten to bond with my dad a lot as he's been by my side since I got told my problem was much more serious than we'd hoped. No surgery! Just x-rays and a lot of liquid food.

I've taken the time to sleep a lot, play some games I am otherwise too busy to play, and doodle our favorite little creature. I would've worked on the comic if I had my ipad (the device with all my scripts) here with me. But at least I can say I'm getting much more comfortable drawing Filament in his new outfit!

He will look stylish for the first pages of chapter one. I love my creature too much to abandon it. So don't worry about that. Before I found out I'm sick, I was busy working on Art Fight references, which is another reason why Filament hasn't had much to say lately.

I promise he's normally very talkative! He just isn't allowed to say most things without giving away important lore that'll be slowly revealed in the comics. Still can't say if I plan for him to remember the rest of his dream or not c:

With love, Heart

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Sorry about that! My creator was having some issues for the past two weeks. She’s okay! Nothing deadly! She just didn’t know what was making her hurt for a bit. Now she knows and now she’s starting to feel better.

I’m unsure how long he’ll be in recovery for. But then again, it’s nothing life-endangering so he can still draw. He’s actually gotten so bored between his naps (which he only takes because of this issue) that he’s considering sketching out the first chapter of my comic on paper early.

Art Fight isn’t for a few months, and he’s still got references to do, but they’re just so damn tempted to draw something different. They’re also considering opening up their manga collection to study how the panels are laid out because that still confuses them. They’re don’t want to have so much blank space anymore.

Goodbye for now, my friends! I hope to see you all again soon and I’m sorry again for the silence on my end!

What if Filament had two eyes? He's still missing an arm.

This version of Filament retained part of his memories and is knowingly mimicking Ink. He's still got trust issues, but this one attacks back with harmful intent. He can't see very well out his right eye, but he's so distrustful that he will attack anything that moves on that side during battle.

I still ended up putting him in his new outfit. Mostly. I drew his scarf different.

I could’ve had two eyes???

Not sure what the Ink comment is about- but I could’ve had two eyes??? I didn’t have to be missing a chunk of my head???

My creator drew someone else yesterday…. I don’t remember their name.

#filament post

I like the new clothes my creator made for me. I feel like it’s easier to move around when I have nothing tucked in. I wonder what colors everything will be?

#filament post

Chapter 4’s script has been written! Chapter 5 has been started.

Still won’t get an actual chapter one post until after June since my creator promised her friends last year that she’d do Art Fight this year. But progress is happening behind the scenes!

We are not to speak of my other versions. They spread L I E S.

#filament post #(this is about the tomodachi life thing)#(while filament will not have any canon relationships-)#(i am fine with him being shipped with others)#(I’d just ask mushroom if they’re okay with it if you wanna ship fil and glitch)#(personally. fil would find a better partner in a brick wall)#(you don’t need to stick to fil’s canon orientation [some form of aroace] to ship him. i love when people make headcanons for others’ ocs)#(he can be anything you want him to be)
