Just Make It A Good One, Eh?

Oh, hello there.

...huh. Forgot I had this blog still. Maybe I should start using it again since X is shitting the bed.

Day 21, Treasure.

Inspired by the final closing credits song of the show Angel Beats, "Ichiban no Takaramono" (which translates literally to "My Precious Treasure"), I drew four characters close to my heart: Miki Sayaka from Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Miyazono Kaori from Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso, Isla from Plastic Memories, and Tachibana Kanade from Angel Beats.

Day 18, Misfit.

Was listening to a remix of "Family" from Super Mario Galaxy and suddenly found myself thinking of Twink, the baby Star Spirit who wanted desperately to be noticed by the Seven Star Spirits. Probably the one time I've ever felt sympathy for him as a character.

Day 19.

Official prompt was Sling but I didn't feel particularly inspired by it, and happened to be listening to some music from the Disney TV show Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure. So here's the Sundrop Flower and the Moonstone Crest.

Day 20, Tread.

While the Judgments and the Institute may not be in official League lore any more, this prompt immediately made me think of "The Measured Tread," a Demacian codex named in Lux's League Judgment from her oldest lore.

Day 14, Overgrown.

Spinel from the Steven Universe Movie.

Day 15, Legend.

The Legend of Zelda, UNDERTALE/deltarune, and Hollow Knight come together to form the stuff of legends.

Day 16, Wild.

YAHAHA! You found me!

Day 17, Ornament.

A League of Legends Star Guardians AU drawing, featuring the broken gems of the lost Guardians Xayah, Rakan, and Neeko.

Day 13, Ash.

Ended up thinking of Pyrrha Nikos, but also kind of felt like doing a video game crossover, thus Hornet from Hollow Knight.

Day 12, Dragon.

Originally I had planned to do something based on the Tumblr meme about the tiny dragon that always goes with its coin, but ended up listening to so much Ace Attorney music that I got the Defiant Dragons idea stuck in my head.

Day 11, Snow.

One of the three scenes that really gets to me in Rise of the Guardians..."What goes together better than cold...and dark?"

Day 10, Pattern.

October 10th was World Mental Health Day, and in honor of this I decided to draw a circular pattern reminiscent of a mandala. The concept of the mandala is almost as old as civilization, but its relevance here is that the psychologist Carl Jung introduced it to Western psychology by using it as a meditation practice, having his patients draw their own mandalas to explore their psyches.

(Yes, I know a true mandala is much more involved and structured. I use the term in the most general, geometric sense of the word.)

Day 7, Enchanted.

Fell behind on Inktober, and in order to start catching up I’ve started drawing without sticking quite as close to the prompts. So just take them as they are.

Day 8, Frail.

Kinda self-reflective.

Day 9, Swing.

Do I even have to?

[pyrrhashnikos]

Not an Inktober piece, just was listening to Reminiscence ~ A Sad Memory from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies, and suddenly had a thought of "what if Athena Cykes' saddest moment was a Persona awakening in the spirit of Persona 5?"

[pyrrhashnikos]

Day 5, Build.

I ended up doing a crossover design. Originally I started thinking about League of Legends (with a player's "build" on a champion), but then randomly also thought of Bismuth from Steven Universe, a Gem with a crafting and construction role. Eventually this melded with the blacksmithing champion Ornn in League, so I drew a Bismuth Ornn skin concept.

Day 4, Freeze.

I wanted to do another gaming one, so I went with Undertale, where you have to freeze in place to avoid damage from light blue attacks (in this case, the rays from Mettaton's disco ball.)

[pyrrhashnikos]

Day 3, Bait.

Since I don't like drawing impaled worms, I'm going with a reference to baiting an enemy in League of Legends by placing a squishy character very obviously out of position so that your team can ambush anyone who tries to take advantage.

Day 2, Mindless.

Here ya are, folks, a jellyfish is my unconventional take on today's prompt. Jellyfish are known for not having brains, and almost don't even count as having a central nervous system. Enjoy!

[pyrrhashnikos]

Alrighty we in here seeing how far into Inktober 2019 I get.

Day 1, Ring.

Decided to go with a different meaning than most people's first word association...the common "posy" used in plague doctor masks during the Black Plague period involved carnations, roses, and mint. “Ring around the rosies, a pocket full of posies. Atishoo, atishoo, we all fall dead.”

types of people ➳ weather

tag yourself;

cloudy: soft hands, hard to read, black combat boots, dreams about starting over, hides anxiety, deep conversations, tangled earbuds, bottling emotions

sunny: optimistic, doc martens, smiling at strangers, doodles of sunflowers, talkative, daydreams a lot, candid photos, making plans to go somewhere fun

rainy: sad smiles, into psychology, morning dew, acoustic playlists, telling yourself everything will be okay, writing in a journal, watching cars pass by, studio ghibli, the smell of clean laundry

snowy: being wrapped up in blankets, shy at first, patient, hot drinks, homemade crafts, bare feet, tired eyes, getting lost in a good book, long, soft hair

windy: running fingers through your hair, likes being around people, iced coffee, petting a stray cat, shaky breaths, gets mad easily but calms down quickly, muted colors, street smart

Was on a work trip this week and didn't have access to my tablet, but did these quick low-qualify Undertale/Ace Attorney crossover sketches with pen and paper.
