OC-TOBER DAY 1: FAV OC

Time for introductions!

Meet 1500 AKA 15 AKA the person in my pfp. Started as a metalocalypse klokateer fc- now turned original character! This was their first design:

(Conceptually the same just can't seem to get the hair right)

The main idea was for them to be just an oc for funsies- with a looney tunes esque plot abt wanting to meet DK but never being able to. NOW to turn that into an actual plot separate from mtl (tho the original will always exist in my heart) sooo expect to hear more from that in the next couple of days bc boy is there lore. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

I can't only have 1 fave oc so please meet...

... E. Originallly short for Mr Evil as a remnant from the days he didn't have a name (guess what his role was?). Nowadays he has turned into more of like 15's foil/best friend you could say and not fully Mr. Evil as he once was. Also his hair is dyed black but is technically blond so yeah. This was his first design

These 2 are def my faves because not only are the main characters of the new (not mtl related any more) story I'm developing with @kingmoonbunny but also because I love their dynamics together. I love the idea of an evil/anti hero bestie and all the situations that come from that. Also I loved designing them as similar but almost opposites silhouette wise and all- (All art by me) Credit to @bweirdart for the prompt list

Happy New Year of 🪵🐉🐲!

I tend to have lazy start of the year on purpose, to chill out. But it also gets uneasy, because of the ingrained social expectation to have resolutions (same as to celebrate at all).

I do lose track if my goals very easily due to my absent-minded flaky attention jumping from idea to idea.. so for this year My ultimate resolution is to make first steps as a creative/movie director. This has felt like the best summary of the professional role I ultimately want to take on.

Starting with doing art in landscape, perhaps.

Webtoon format is very close to this, but that's the whole other thing I am still pondering on.

Right now I want to do a very simple project:

Few seconds of a video made in Unreal Engine sequencer, using Metahuman I already have (clothes changes are not important here thanks to emphasis on blur and light in the room/glass overlay) + mocap+ figuring out cinematic light&blur.

There is nothing extra I need to prepare, just look up UE5 metahuman expansion related to animating.

The doodle above is the storyboard frame with my oc.

And here is some older doodle edit i recenty did, which kinda the reason for the today's one.

Overall idea is:

The blurry misty with light rays, scene behind a textured glass. Facial expressions changes and eventual bloody hand slap on the glass. Kinda mystery/horror vibe + Awake tv show vibe. For color theme I wanna go with wood for the Year's dragon color. I tend to drigt to greenish, common color theme for movies. I want the visuals to be more ambiguous, without the insta-moody vibe.

OC-TOBER DAY #6: PAST

Let's start with 1500!

15 (who now has differnt hair again becuase I can't decide a hair length) grew up in Finland as the middle sibling out of 13 kids. As such, they've always been looking to stand out from the rest and be special in their own way.

(Look, I even made a design for their family! 15 is the short one in the middle with the dopey grin)

They had a pretty uneventful childhood -even if they mostly were left out and struggled with making friends- up until the passing of their mother, which caused them to run away from home and join a mysterious organisation called H-O-P-E that apparently had big plans for him. NOW, ONTO E!

Little E grew up in a farm in rural Austria with a loving family- however, due to the meddling of a certain organisation, he ended up being adopted by a rich family in Vienna, who supported him throught his transition and fueled his passions. Surprise, surprise! That family also vanished. Not much else is known about him, however he seems to have joined HOPE with totally innocent purposes...
