[sapphtalks]

[sapphtalks]

when you decide the best way to use these year-old gift ocs from mommyclan, is to redesign them for use in your giant sonic au project

this is for the lyrical au btw

[stepcousinclawspeaks]

[stepcousinclawspeaks]

i hate to say it, but the blog feels pretty much dead.

plus there was/is some sort of drama happening in the mommyclan community?

mommyclaws has seemingly distanced themselves from the clan

so many people are leaving and i'm not really sure why

i'd like to hear from anyone who has information on what is happening and how the other clanmates are doing

i'm unsure if i'll carry on this blog

it's a time capsule of the short summer months i spent bonding with new people over goofy cat books and even crazier ocs

so perhaps, just for stepcousinclaw

one last arc

if i feel that it's worth it

2023 Art Summary

I originally created my blog back in April, but I've decided to jump on the trend and share a compilation of some of my favorite works.

JANUARY

My first attempt at a digital painting style, featuring a character I don't believe I've introduced here before. A reimagining of the Tails Doll, with a Phantom Ruby twist: The Phantom Amalgamation (or Maggie, as my friends call them), made for Project Alacrity. I'll have to get around to redrawing them so they can have a proper introduction.

FEBUARY

Fanart for YouTube creator, Miharu the Fox. Whilst watching one of her streams, I asked what I should draw, with her co-host Marc suggesting that I should "Draw Spyro glitching into the abyss." Seeing that they were playing Spyro Enter the Dragonfly, it seemed only fitting. So I drew him shaking on top of a trapped baby dragon in ice.

MARCH

An attempt at a papercraft style using a tutorial by YouTube user, CariadsCoffee. The character pictured is Squirrelflight (or rather, Squirrelstar) from Warrior Cats, using my own design. Learning this method of drawing is what eventually led to me adopting the lineless style I use in many of my posts.

APRIL

Parody designs of Silver and Blaze, aptly dubbed Pothead and Lighter. They originate from a Sonic 06 parody comic for 4/20 that was written by my friend, @alzikeiswrong , and was illustrated in TuxPaint by me. Whether or not I decide to actually finish and post it is a mystery.

MAY

A post made as a gut reaction to discovering the amount of articulated parts the Jakks Pacific Tails Nine figure had. 70 points of articulation is ridiculous, but man is the figure amazing. I just wish he was to scale with the normal Tails figure.

JUNE

My second attempt at a digital painting, this time featuring Blaze the Cat. Manipulating the flames and how they interacted with Blaze and the background, was a fun challenge, as well as figuring out the textures and posing.

JULY

This is the point when I discovered my lineless style. Specifically the one I use when drawing my fursona, Sapph. Her design has developed a lot over the years, from being a Minecraft X Warrior Cats crossover OC, to slowly rounding out and becoming less Minecraft, gaining new design details in the process, to where she is now.

AUGUST

A drawing of multiple AU designs of Tails for Project Alacrity, socializing at some sort of get together. This was mainly a test to practice how to frame a drawing with multiple characters in it, as well as giving them each something to do. To show the differences between these various different versions of the same core character through their designs and how they interact with one another.

SEPTEMBER

One of the ask answers for my MommyClan cat's ask blog, @stepcousinclawspeaks . Stepcousinclaw was originally created for the fanclan in August, but this panel was one of my favorites. It shows his chaotic and often arsonistic side really well. I'll return to the blog soon for a big story update. Stay tuned!

OCTOBER

October brought with it the Sonic OC Showdown 2, which I had miraculously managed to get my Trace the Tasmanian to participate in. She passed the first round by a close call, but lost by a wide margin in the following. It was a good fight, with a good string of propaganda art coming from me and some of my supporters as a part of the campaign. Thank you all for supporting me while I was a part of it.

NOVEMBER

Whilst exploring through old files, I came across a template I saved. I used it to share the designs I made for various Warriors characters, some who I already had made designs for, and others I had to make up on the spot. One of my favorites was Spottedleaf. The balance of colors and details seem just right to me, as well as being a vast improvement from the color inaccurate one I had made as a ten year old.

DECEMBER

December's was fun. I haven't ever really had a "set style." Every time I try to revisit one specific design I always make something a bit off. Same can be said for this sketch style. I loved doing it. It felt the most accurate to how my art on paper feels as I draw it. Rough around the edges, but lifelike. Sadly I've had a hard time returning to it after dumping out all my thoughts around the 06 AU onto my screen. I've been working on it. There's more to see in the coming year, so I hope you'll stick with me to see how I can grow as a young artist!

Attention MommyClanners!! I have an important announcement to make! 

I will be working on a MOMMYCLAN DATING SIMULATOR! Approved by @mommyclan!! It will be mostly a joke sort of thing, taking inspiration from the rain world dating sim.

This will be a project that will take character submissions to be included in it to be featured in a sort of choose-your-own path story using tumblr posts and unlisted YouTube videos! I for the most part will likely be writing and editing but if you would like to help with making art for this then feel free to DM me! This is a big project, your help is welcome and appreciated, no matter your skill level! 

More details and everything you need to know about submitting your character below the cut.

The dating sim will not have any specific canon character as protagonist. For now, unless I think of a better name, our protagonist will be named Anonrose who is genderfluid and goes by all pronouns!

Sadly, despite how much I want everyone to be able to participate, I fear that may take a long time. There are a limit of 20 character slots. Although, this is still a large number of characters so be patient!! The character slots will be shown below. First come first serve. Eventually, I may ask for submissions for characters that are not datable, so look out for that!

Here is everything you need to know to be able about submitting your character!

Reblog with a reference sheet and description of their personality to submit!

Your character must be an adult to be submitted. I’m sorry but the protagonist, Anonrose, will be depicted as an adult and I would want them trying to court a child. If I ever want nondatable character then they will be submittable.

One character per person my be submitted

I may DM you personality-related questions so I can make this as suitable as possible!

This whole thing is a joke, so you don’t have to worry about considering it canon to your oc if you don’t want to.

Unless you ask me not to, then there is a possibility for Anonrose to get in a relationship with your character in this.

I will be posting updates on the dating sim under the #mommyclan dating sim and #anonrose tag!

Finally, BE PATIENT!!!! This will take a lot of time!!! Especially if we want it to be good! Absolutely zero progress has been made so far!! Do not rush me or anybody who may help work on this project!!!

Character slots (1/20)

Douchebag; ME!!!!

ROUND 2

TRACE THE TASMANIAN DEVIL VS STING THE SCORPION

Trace the Tasmanian Devil

Sting the Scorpion

Voting ended onNov 4, 2023

Trace belongs to @sapphanimates

Sting belongs to @whimsical-sonic

Find out more about them below!

Trace the Tasmanian Devil:

Trace is a character that resides in my AU, Project Alacrity. She was born at the tail end of the Great War between the Human settlers and Mobian natives. They had just started to come to a closed agreement, with the only fork in their plans being a pack of ruthless Jackals who followed no rules and took whatever they wanted.

Trace was sent as a spy into their ranks, claiming to be a child of hybrid decent, and ended up gaining their trust. That is until her ruse was discovered by a young Infinite, who exposed her to the clan. As a punishment, they melded a metalic grate onto her face, preventing her from using her powerful jaws to attack, and to stop her from spreading secrets. Her hometown effectively retaliated, driving the Jackals away, but it was too late. She was permanently afflicted mentally and physically.

Months later, she eventually decided set off on her own, and came across a basilisk lizard named Zess, who taught her sign language and helped to care for her. From there they made more allies and grew a team, The Daybreak's Angels. When Infinite allied with Eggman and began their conquest, the Angels were there, assisting the Resistance from the shadows whenever they could.

Trace is respected by her team, not only for her experience in battle, but also in perseverance and her fair judgement. She believes forgiveness can be earned, if one puts their full effort into achieving it.

Sting the Scorpion:

Sting is a medical student with a side gig in mercenary work, although "side gig" is starting to turn into full-time work. Originally, he took up odd jobs to help pay for his classes, but his success has tempted him in better paying, more challenging jobs.

Sting is stern, typically no-nonsense, but is not immune to the occasional cocky banter. He runs on a personal moral code that no one but him seems to know. He's not a bad guy, but he'll do almost anything for the right price.

He is proficient in martial arts. He only uses his poisonous stinger in combat if the situation deems it necessary.

ROUND 1

TRACE THE TASMANIAN DEVIL VS SAPPHIRE AURORA

Trace the Tasmanian Devil

Sapphire Aurora

Voting ended onOct 27, 2023

Trace belongs to @sapphanimates

Sapphire Aurora belongs to @spiritgenie

Find out more about them below!

Trace the Tasmanian Devil:

Trace is a brown furred Tasmanian Devil wearing long red gloves, boots, and a purple cape. Her most defining feature is the metallic muzzler that covers her face, preventing her from speaking. Despite this she is the proud leader of her own secret militia, the Daybreak's Angels, commanding them through sign language. They respect her, not only for her previous experience fighting in a war against the Jackal clan, but for her perseverance and sense of justice. She deserves everyone deserves a second chance, if they are willing to work for it.

Sapphire Aurora:

she is from silvers time, and before she met silver, she spent a lot of time fighting to survive on her own, so she has gotten a lot of survival instincts, and puts up a tough girl act to look intimidating

when she was young her parents died while trying to save her, but all she knows is that they went away and never came back so she feels they abandoned her and now has a ton of abandonment issues so she tries not making friends

until she meets silver that is

she has winter themed powers, she can create and control snow, ice, cold, etc. which she sometimes uses to make statues as she like to do art when shes alone ot try and cheer her up

she's basicaly silvers "tails" and sees him as a big bro, though she does bite him a lot, silver learned the hard way not to surprise or sneak up on her.

due to iblis, silver sees her as blaze a lot, which doesn't help that she has some similarities to blaze

shes also just a scared little girl on the inside, a side she doesnt show many people, even silver has only seen it a few times

she is the host for the 3rd part of solaris(the soul) who gives her fire resistence and keeps her from dying

[sapphtalks]

we did it

Thank you everyone for helping Trace and I make it through Round 1. It was an incredibly close call. So close to the point where I was in a cold sweat all day and night, hoping she'd make it. And she did! You guys are amazing! Not to mention @spiritgenie, who gave me quite possibly the most stressful competition of my life so far. Thank you. I wish you and Sapphire well on your next adventure!

I hope to see you all tomorrow when we go up against @whimsical-sonic and their incredible OC, Sting the Scorpion!
