Italian bird boy has a moment of nostalgic reflection (and a cigarette).

a.k.a. I haven’t drawn my OC in months and have to relearn how to art da birb.

[noctambularis]

It’s been a while.  Have a stabby art man doodle.

[yuumei-art]

Inspired by all the amazing photos from the protests in Hong Kong. They are fighting for their freedom and democracy against China’s encroaching totalitarian rule. As someone born in China and having seen all the horrendous abuse of power that happens without democracy, my heart is with the people of Hong Kong. I hope they will achieve their goals of freedom and inspire others to also fight for their rights to democracy.

I made this painting of Hong Kong over a year ago. I never could have imagined that a year later the vibrant city would be fighting so hard for their freedom and rights. My heart is with the people of Hong Kong and their bravery is truly inspiring.

Day 3: What to Wear? Show your OC in a swimsuit outfit.

Wesley in an old-timey 1920′s-style bathing suit! Wes is still really old-fashioned so he’ll wear things from his era even though times have changed.  The poor boi can’t swim though, hence the child-sized inflatable inner tube.  He’s not bringing his pince-nez for fear of losing or breaking them, even if it means he can’t see too well without them.

Meanwhile, Silvio bought some edgy swim trunks from his favourite rat-themed clothing store and is probably only at the beach just so he can go on a rampage and ambush people with his stupid water gun... before running away while cawing with laughter  >:V  CAW CAW CAW!!!

Didn’t really have time to finish my two other OCs in their outfits, but they will at least appear in the next few days while the event’s still going.

These doodles are for the “Bikini Beach In Hell” event by @moy-is-big-mama

[noctambularis]

“Day 1 ~ 2: Let’s go to the beach! And who should I ask to go with?”

Maybe Wesley was having an uneventful morning, chilling in bed with some sudoku puzzles, when Luka bursts in from the bathroom with nothing but a speedo on (which is honestly incentive enough for Wes to do just about anything).  Before he knows it, Wes has somehow been changed into beachwear and carried off by his bae.

Wesley is my OC, and the beautiful blue boi Luka belongs to @zella-mochi.  (I want to apologize for how silly this is, Zella, but I mean look at that face- :D)

I am a tad late, but I’m glad I could finally finish something for this ‘Bikini Beach In Hell’ event, which belongs to @moy-is-big-mama.  Many thanks to my friend @cinnabirb17 for telling me about this event and just being really supportive in general about drawing again! Not sure how many I’ll have time to get done, but I will try to get doodles of my other OCs out during this event~ :D

My other Hazbin OC~!

Wesley Hoffman Age: 30 (Died in 1929) / Height: 4′11″ (149cm) / Male Cause of Death: Stabbing & Exsanguination Crimes: Fraud, Accessory to lots of violence

- Extremely stoic personality, never cracks a smile and it’s even more impossible to make him laugh.  A good stock market crash may do the trick though.

- A numbers guy who will speak formally almost all of the time, even to those with whom he is very familiar.  Loosens up a bit though after meeting his beau, @zella-mochi’s roguishly handsome OC Luka <3

- His animal-influenced design is part weasel, part rodent.  He doesn’t particularly like to be reminded of how tiny and adorable he is because he takes himself so serious, but he squeaks when he sneezes and has stuffed chew toys hidden in his office desk, so you tell me.

- Brief backstory under the ‘Keep Reading’ break.

Wesley was born to Swiss parents who immigrated to America in the late 1800′s.  He was born an extremely weak & sickly child and remained easily prone to illness & very small in stature for the rest of his life.  Despite his physical obstacles, he was always determined to carve out his own success in the world using his strengths--namely his intellect.  He was not only an amazing number cruncher but also very quick-thinking with an amazing poker face--perfect for a job that required great discretion.  Before long, he became an accountant for high profile gangsters, not caring too much about the dangers of his job--in fact he found it more entertaining that way.  He was well-trusted by his clients, so much so that he became highly involved with one of the most powerful mob families in the area, run by Arnoldo Falcone (another OC of mine).

This would lead to his death years later after Arnoldo passes away and his idiot son, Silvio Falcone, kills Wesley after wrongly assuming Wes betrayed the family.

In Hell, Wesley’s still crunching numbers because there’s nothing he’d rather be doing! Except now he’s also in a relationship with his boss Luka, so that makes for some interesting office shenanigans, shall we say.

Aurelius St. Germain — Hazbin OC

Well, like I need more OCs, but I just couldn’t help myself! Being the history nerd that I am, something I love about this fandom and universe is the freedom to make characters from so many eras, it’s so fun!! ; )

~~~

This is Aurelius, the French aristocrat and now bookstore owner!

- Physical age ~36-37, height ~189 cm/6’2”

- Was a noble and at court at Versailles, although he wasn’t anyone of amazing influence, and got swept up in the French Revolution

- One of the main reasons he ended up in Hell was that he took what he thought was justice in his own hands, and ended up poisoning some other courtiers who were particularly corrupt and went so far as murder for their underhanded whims

- Once the revolution started, he saw what it could ideally mean in terms of bringing down so much corruption, did jump in without much thought

- He has a mind for military tactics, and was willing to denounce names, siding against the aristocracy until things got very much out of hand. He eventually outlived his usefulness near the end of the Revolution

- Now in Hell, he does feel guilty for how drastically he attempted to change history and steer fate with his actions in life, and resigned himself to a more passive role as a mere observer to events for centuries

- He now owns a little bookstore, and always has a patient smile and the perfect reading recommendation! Despite trying to keep his distance personally from things in general, he’s always happy when people enjoy the books he sells!

- Personality wise, he is very observant and patient, however there is somehow an intimidating air to that smile of his. Although, if you do strike up a conversation, he has a lot of wisdom to share from all his years!

- He does take a lot of pride in how splendid his large and luminous golden wings are, and has a few of bird-like quirks, like a love for shiny objects and the need to actually preen his feathers! His aesthetics do reflect his gold colouration, and both his bookstore and home have that lavish Rococo decor!

- Usually keeps to himself, but since a fateful day at his bookstore, he’s really opened up! It’s unconventional by any means, but he’s really found happiness now being in a relationship with Silvio (@noctambularis’s OC) and Zack (another OC of mine)! 💛

Ahhhhhh! Thanks for putting up with more of my OC and story nonsense, just you know, birbs and history, how could I resist? And big thanks to @noctambularis for going along with all my “fanbirbing” haha! ;P

[noctambularis]

Silvio is and always will be hopelessly in love with his golden French birb.  He will CAWWW about his undying love until the ends of time!!! >:V

Aurelius is absolutely awesome & fabulous and I love everything about him!! <3 Thanks so much for creating, designing, and sharing such a wonderful character @zella-mochi, I am simply just scremmmm! Our trio of silly boyos makes me so happy!! :)

[noctambularis]

Introducing my Hazbin OC!

Silvio Falcone Age: 31 (Died in 1931) / Height: 5′9″ (175cm) / Male Cause of Death: Assassination Crimes: Murder, Theft, Profiteering...

- Personality-wise, he’s crude to a fault and is extremely aggressive.  He says & does whatever he wants, whenever he wants.  CAWWW!!! >:V - His design has elements inspired from falcons, hence the talon hand and face feathers/hair.  The feathers on his shoulder cape are his.  He also has a hidden broken wing on his left side that rarely sprouts. - [Insert general 1920′s gangster memes here.  And yes he does have the accent.] - He’s in a relationship with @zella-mochi‘s wonderful boys, Zack & Aurelius~ - Brief background story under ‘Keep reading’.

History: Son of a well-respected and powerful Sicilian-born crime lord in America whose business peaked in the late 20′s (during the Prohibition).  After his father died, Silvio inherited his business empire, but ran everything to the ground due to his reckless & belligerent behaviour, as well as his complete lack of business savvy.  He was eventually betrayed by some extremely resentful members of his gang, and they planted explosives in an empty liquor warehouse after luring him out alone.  Silvio lost most of the left side of his body in the explosion and died almost instantaneously. Now in Hell, he’s generally a pugnacious little birdbrain, but is trying to be less of a walking disaster.

Silvio’s backstory is also tied in with another OC of mine, Wesley, who will be posted later~

Wanted to draw Julian Devorak for a while because he’s my favourite character in the game.  I came across a picture of a D&G outfit (from the 2006 Fall show I think) and thought it suited Julian’s style, so I made some small changes and doodled him wearing it.

Absolutely loving this game so far!!

[noctambularis]

Can’t sleep.  Sketch Stefano.

I just finished binge watching Banana Fish and I really enjoyed it! I drew Ash while re-listening to those fantastic OPs and EDs.

[noctambularis]

Soft Focus is a wonderful SteSeb fanfic by @detectivesebcas‘ (AO3 link here), please check it out!

Wanted to draw them in simple outfits from the earlier chapters.  I like to pretend they’re just, uh, posing for a magazine cover or something and definitely nothing bad or dangerous ever happens to them in the story *nervous laughter*.

[noctambularis]

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!

My main muse in 2018 was definitely Stefano Valentini and I hope I can step up my art game (and suit game) to make the man proud.  Onwards!
