This is an RP blog for an AU version of Wreck-It Ralph. This Ralph is a merorca (a merman with an orca tail) from a made-up game called Unfathomable. No sexual M!As, please! Current M!As: None RP status: Just keep swimming. ((My OOC/Main account is MewtwoWarrior.))
In honor of Tron Day, here's my project for my Tron OC Ark that I've been working on or a while now!
I used this base with some modifications to it for everything:
Iyzel Reaar's F2U Female Ref Base
The main modifications I did were to mirror half of it so I didn't have to figure out how to draw the circuits twice, erase certain features I'm not sure Basic programs have, and make the lines solid.
I used Windows 11 Paint's line and shape tools to draw the circuits, with adding a few pixels here and there when needed.
I used the GNU Image Manipulation Program for a lot of the color editing I did and for layering the textures.
-
The first two are Ark's base circuits, along with the red rectified version of them for Mars.
I used my friend @quesadillawizard's art and design for Ark - Ark's circuits are based off ones from the DS version of Evolution and Wolfy added more features to them.
I used the reference he made for me to make the circuits and referenced this sketch as well.

The next two are the Tron/Renegade circuits from Uprising, in both gray and black, as seen in the show.
@tucatalog was super helpful for references!
I mainly used two posts of theirs:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
I looked at a few others as well, but I have a list of 50+ of their posts and were flipping between them, so I'm not entirely sure which others I used.
-
The next two are Grid scar versions of the Tron/Renegade circuits.
In Ark's backstory, she was captured and tortured by the Occupation. I've played around with different scar configurations for her and I love the idea of them literally carving the Tron circuits out/off of her.
I decided to do a little something different for the scars, I've tried another technique that wasn't much fun, and I'm not sure how to mimic the scars from Uprising.
So, I took some textures I got from Etsy and layered them over each other to try to make something interesting.
Textures I used:
Gemstone Crush
Iridescent Textures
Glassy Textures
Iridescent Glass
Sparkly Glitter
Fake Glitter Particles
I'm not sure if most of these came through, I figured out the glitter ones did a lot of the heavy lifting I wanted, so they're the most visible ones and the ones on top.
Anyway, one is just the Renegade scars and the other is the scars overlaid on Ark's circuits.
-
The last two are the circuits and scars over a skintone for circumstances when Ark ends up in the User world.
I like the thought of program circuits being barely visible in the User world, with just a hint of faint iridescence when the light hits them just right.
One of the textures from this pack fit my idea fairly well, so that's what I used:
Iridescent Textures
The scars are the ones I made earlier with a skin tone color overlay to make them blend in.
This is what I started this project for, as I wanted a visual for an RP and a potential fic.
-
I've done a smaller scale version of this before, that time I made the scars by repeatedly scribbling over the circuits with multiple different colors, which hurt my hand, lol:
The Price of Being a Renegade
I've had several different thoughts about Ark's scars and decided to play around with one of them.
If Ark was
The black and white Tron/Renegade circuits from Tron: Uprising made with Paint's line and shape tools.
They were originally made for my Ark

Anyway, that's my project! It's not perfect, but I'm pretty pleased with how it came out!
A big thanks to @quesadillawizard and @proto-actual for looking them over!
Mermay. This was originally more cynical with her swimming in trash and it was supposed to have like an environmental spin but I think like most people I don’t quite have the heart for cynical right now. So here’s my mermaid. I felt like I learned a lot from this and I’m using the fact that I started out loving it and now all I can see are mistakes as proof of that. I feel like I’m slowly lurching from that awkward airbrush blur phase but I still have a ways to go.
Mermay but with a twist: it’s Pena, my cat, being the best mercat he can. Fish they’re based on in captions and you can also find pena-fied versions of the names in the twitter thread here. (ED: ehh so how do captions work these days? Cause I at least can’t see them. Oh well, there’s the twitter thread at least.)
Well… I think this is the best I can do~ I’ll try to upload the detail of her face on a second post :P
I hope you like it as much as I do ~ I can say that I’m in shock… I like to do redraws because it’s truly exciting to know how much my style has changed through the years :’)

Human
Singing the tale of another man
Have you ever heard
Music
It’s coming, coming, coming your way
The very first song
In here, I am the silence of sound
Curing the common show
For the steady song
There, I’ll greet the greedy crowd
But will never, ever sing to them
Nightwish

HAPPY MERMAY EVERYONE! Im looking forward to seeing all your wonderful mer people. Follow @monster-bait cause she might or might not write something about this couple.
