Houseki no Kuni, Chapter 1 -> 108

#not my art #houseki no kuni spoilers #hnk spoilers #dont often reblog on here but man #with the og splatoon and hnk both ending this year #it brings a certain kind of grief toward my highschool self #but also a certain comfort #phos changed immensely and still found peace at the end #a melancholic one for sure but one nonetheless #an end of an era closes again #so long phosphophyllite #your antics made smile and cry #grieve and laugh

Made these guys glowy as well.

#splatoon #coroika #splatoon mask #splatoon aloha #splatoon skull #skull #mask #aloha #you know when i read the manga on a whim at like 1am #i did not expect the characters to grow on me #every character in that manga has like 3 personality traits and no braincells #and cause a hysterical juxtaposition to houseki no kuni in the tab right next to it #on one hand silly squid shenanigans #on the other rock depression with an existential crisis and body horror!

[silvergarnet12]

A couple of Threes. I wanted to mess with glowy stuff and also a silly outfit sketch.

Have the dumbest thing I've ever drawn, I cannot hear "Fearless" used as a title without thinking of this album.

Watching someone stream Splatoon until shutdown, and witnessed a hacker throw approximately 500 burst bombs off of Moray Towers. Imagine being an inkling who lives there walking under the stage only to get destroyed by burst bombs when you’re just trying to get groceries.

#Splatoon #I speak #not art #21 minutes left…

Also shout out to when this happened to me years ago, foreshadowing of the quality of the servers to come.

This actually happened to me in game and I died many times.

#I speak #this was drawn the same day that this occurred #it’s beeen a loooooong time since then

And with this reblog, the servers are officially shut in an hour I fucked up the time conversion. And with it another part of my childhood comes to a close. Booyah Splatoon 1, it was an honour to be there from the start.

Splatoon was the first Nintendo game to push me out of my comfort zone of single player games, and with the closure of it's servers I wanted to draw a tribute to a game that really means a lot to me.

Some long rambles about the game under the cut.

When I first played the Global Testfire I was 15, and the only mutliplayer games I played were with friends in the same room.

Splatoon was also the first shooter I ever picked up, as I always liked bright colours over more realistic graphics in my games, and back then the only shooters I knew about were Halo(and that was only really a name to me!) and the CoD games.

Any worries I had about being bad quickly vanished as the sheer vibe of chaotic fun the game had, particularly when no one had played it before, got rid of any worries, and all I remember is having fun. And choosing to play as the guy instead of the girl for the first time, solely becuase I wanted a ponytail like in real life(I would continue to use the guy through the series as a tradition, a contrast to what I saw most people online doing).

When the game came out I binged the single player, and vividly remember the first time I fought DJ Octavio, and the first time I heard Calamari Inkantation. If ever a game was to convince me that a song could irreversibly change your life, it was Splatoon. Because to teenage me, in that moment, with Calamari Inkantation playing in the background while I fought an octupus DJ, it did.

It gave me terminal brainworms for this series. And here I am, 8 yrs later. Older and more tired, been through some shit, had some good times, tried, succeeded and failed in things throughout the years.

I've always been grateful that they made the decision for the player character from 1 to return, everytime they've shown up it's felt a bit like seeing an old friend, especially since as the games time skips have always had them close to my age(which probably helped my attachement back in the first game). So hi Three, can't believe we both probably pay taxes now.

I have the original two Inkling Amiibos, in a collection that is slowly building, I'm still attached to Marie, and yes I was on her team for the Final Splatfest.

I cried when it was over, just like I did in 2's Final Fest(I was team chaos, two for two baby!) and will probably do so for 3's as well. Something about this series just makes me super attached to it's world and characters.

So booyah Splatoon, my final online game of yours was well and truly years ago, but I replayed story mode to share you with a friend recently, and I think I'll refight Octavio tonight in honour of the good times.

You encouraged me to try out games I wouldn't have otherwise(hello Overwatch and Deep Rock Galactic), and outlasted one of the other major games of my teenage years(...Overwatch 1 I miss you). So thank you for that.

I'll miss Squid Jump, Inkstrike, the og kit for the NZap 89(why does it's new one not vibe with me ;-;), the Squid Sister's broadcasts and the more saturated colours. At least I can always return to the Plaza in 3, and that Spyke isn't dead like I was concerned he was when 3 released, and see the Squid Sisters perform during Splatfests again.

I have so much more to say in my heart about you but no more ways to word it.

You've been a fantastic game, and will always be a treasured experience that I am grateful to have been a apart of from the very beginning.

Now bring back Moray Towers in 3 damn it! It's in 2 but I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY FAVOURITE STAGE IF IT"S NOT IN 4.

#I’ve never had a game server closure make me this sad before #I guess this game just meant a lot more to me than I ever knew

[silvergarnet12]

I may not be able to be playing the game myself at server close time(my brother lent the gamepad charger out years ago and never got it back), but it does make me smile to see my favourite stage Moray Towers is in the last Splatoon 1 turf war rotation.

#I speak #not art #Seriously that stage is my all time favourite #I love the sheer height and verticality #it’s just fun #to me anyway #I will mention I don’t use chargers since it’s reputation as a snapper friendly map #yeah sure snapper

unfun fact I had to reupload that last post since tumblr isn’t a functioning website and straight up made it invisible in the search function.

#I speak #I found this out by waking up too zero notes #like I don’t actually care about numbers too much however there’s usually a few likes #meaning either I somehow gained the worst art style suddenly or tumble refused to put my stuff in tags…again #it’s happened before

[silvergarnet12]

Some redraws of early Splatoon stuff from 2016(left), the Wii U servers shutting down are making me nostalgic.

I still use that Zekko hoodie in game.

#Splatoon #inkling #my art #redraw #reupload becuse it didn’t show up in search?!?
