tervis (oc) sightings
/ id: three screenshots from the video game pathologic. tervis, a hunched figure wearing long hooded robes and carrying a walking staff, has been digitally painted into each scene. the first shows tervis crouching on a metal walkway between two buildings in the factory district. the second shows tervis with their hand pressed against an infected house, looking balefully out into the night. the third shows tervis sitting against the wall of the railway station, observing the trains. end id. /

Yall FUEL me with all the keyboard smashing in the tags my GOODNESS-
Hey uh...I dunno who all hangs around here often, but like...I'm still open to receiving asks of zelda characters yall like..
Come on! Who all do you like from any of the games? What if I wanna draw someone but dont know who? I'd love to look through my asks and see some suggestions or something! The only reason I wouldnt is if I dont immediately have the energy or motivation to draw at the time of seeing the ask.
I mean I guess I could randomly flip through our zelda books too, or use a random picker app. But also I just like to know who all is enjoyed by people!

Hello 👋
Swallowing my nerves at last to send you an ask! I was just wondering, what inspires your designs? Are their inspirations in stuff like movies or games? Or just things you come up with yourself?
i .. honestly its kinda hard to tell, sometimes i just randomly think of something, like some detail, or color combination and try to incorporate that into a design somehow; it can come from anywhere, like the color scheme of a pithaya/dragonfruit is something i have been wanting to make a design with for ages but havent come up with anything good in all those years ;O;
im a very easily fascinated by color, espeically in nature, like sometimes i just stop and stare at something like i froze in time bc i just woooooooooooooah color! i probably look like a weirdo doing that though
its really hard to pinpoint anything specifically, the most is probably .. other artists? i guess? which always makes me nervous bc my memory is shit in most areas of life and i worry myself to pieces whether i unintentionally "stole" an idea and just dont remember and think it was my own, it goes further that sometimes i see something that makes me want to draw a similar concept but dont bc i dont want to 'steal' even if that couldnt be further from my intention (have been accused of that before ..)
that said for my ocs specifically .. most are rather old and have just kinda evolved out of their awkward first iterations (shargons first iteration was a hauro-howl- copy that was really just some human covered in feathers .. another oc was once a hellboy copy but in green- havent drawn nor redeisgn them in ages lol), the biggest inspirations for them is a mix of animals, bonus if you dont see them often- im a big shark, whale and sea creatures in general nerd so i tend to take from them as a priority but always trying to be less directly animal and mostly just .. features that work together
Eadrya is one of the newer OCs- i started to write but then looked at my folders and oh they are from 2017 .., i even made a design timeline for them how much they, and my art, have changed back in 2020, so thats also way outdated now lol (they apparently started as a whale .. thing? its like a pokemon evolution lol)
Tumblr media
this is them now (i like this sketch still, though shargons design is now also outdated lmao)
Tumblr media
this ones from early 2023 so also outdated now but you get the point
Tumblr media
for demons i try to be a bit more wild on shapes and colors while still adhering to the rules of how they work (humanoid form, demon form, animalistic, one element each and more or less made to fit that, 4 arms is very common, look to be bost scary and wild but also something that would make you stop in tracks and stare in awe and fear if you crossed paths)
often times designs just kinda .. happen, i have maybe the idea ok i wanna make something with a white and red pattern also moose or those big horned cows are cool and kinda scary so maybe sth akin to that (though this one is technically a redesign too- its also pretty much entirely different)
Tumblr media
for non demons but still non human i go for a much more restrained design, mainly inspired directly by an animal and giving the color scheme a good spin, plus adding unconventional body shapes, like ki'ita is also a good example, her old idea was just orca anthro pirate and just by making the white green instead in her most recent redesign already adds that little spin to it
Tumblr media
that can have its pitfalls though, as i often fall into the big arm small head small legs scheme over and over xD
alot of it is trial and error, deciding on the colors can take me hours bc im always searching for my little rule of having one contrast color that shows up in very few places to draw attention to it (like with Eadrya its those bright yellow eyes and thingy at their tail)
and that is all about myy own ocs, when its fandom stuff it works kinda similar though, either in the connections i wanna draw or just thinking it further- like how deities in destiny work also just kinda .. happened like an ever derailing train
like for demise i was at first really just im gonna give him horns bc horns are cool and he got those on the starting mural in the game- so how his hair work? well maybe it isnt hair actually and just unbound energy, im making him a deity too and fit hylias design to his so, yeah, then so how does it work, ok he gotta have a skeleton still, but what if his entire actual body is made up of pure magical energy with its core in the ribcage? with the core in the ribcage >:3c and the scales you see are just like cooled down lava as an armor bc his thing is fire and earth !! the normal blood? is a thin layer of skin imiated from mortals to keep the scales together and flexible so if he ACTUALLY gets hurt hed bleed magic that looks more like lava and any normal blood you see is just the armor- so why does he have a skeleton still instead of being just energy? maybe its gotta be bound to something OH and what if all of the deities started as mortals like a mirror to the trio later on and the gods cannot have direct influence to the worlds so they needed a right hand that is neither god nor mortal but both by killing a mortal by whatever their element will be (demise burned, hylia drowned etc) and their skeleton and spirit is kept but put into a body of magic- OH what if their spirit core is like almost piloting their bodies like a mech in a way bc if youd look close youd see that every strand of magic is actual a hand of their spirit so it makes it more weird and other bc hed be able to reach out with thousands of burning claws of all shapes and sizes like the beheaded forest god at the end of mononoke- SO if hed lose and arm or something all those strands would untangle and rearrange his bones back together-OH MY GOD the whole armor idea works so well for ghirahims dark armor so what if demise had two swords once and lost one and since has forged an armor similar to his own for ghirahim out fo fear of losing him t---
and that all is a process that happens over several weeks and months not rarely while i am drawing something mindlessly and suddendly *have a thought* and omg that makes so much sense-
so "what" inspires my designs? an ever derailing train of thought about making cool thick monsters that arent the evil thing to get rid of for once? cool color schemes? idk it just kinda happens??

"I am kind"
"I am loving"
"I am worthy"
"I am a force to be reckoned with"
"I deserve rest"
"I deserve love"
"I am enough"
You are all those things. It's easy to forget sometimes how hard we work and how far we've come. You are so many wonderful things lovelies. Remember to tell yourself that once in a while. You deserve recognition from others, but also from yourself. You are so brilliant, and you continue to surprise and delight us all every day. Rest well <3 A few more love notes from some lovely folks on instagram, feel free to visit them below :)

Are you willing to share crumbs about your Oc, GameShark? They just seem so interesting and I love the design for them!
oh sure!! ive been drawing him a few month and his design changed quickly, be warned
Tumblr media
this was his initial sheet, when i was still drawing him more humanoid.
His quirk-- Tech Control
As long as hes touched something electrical in the last WEEK he can control it from a distance of about 2 blocks, but can sense where it is from much further.
The rules about what the specifics of 'control' is is pretty loosey goosey, but picture 'changing a radio station' or 'making a car turn around and drive to you when you try to flee the scene'. He can also touch an electric lock and make it open, or make your phone unlock and call him on speakerphone.
He picked his name because as a middle schooler he was just tearing UP the game arcades. It was just for fun but he got in trouble with a local hero that scolded him and told him to use his quirk for heroics instead.
Present Mic was still fairly new to the hero circuit and for whatever reason, Game Shark adored him! Present Mic had recently begun to teach at UA but Game Shark couldnt get in, sadly. He ended up in Seiai Academy instead, which is a little more lenient when it comes to non-combat focused quirks.
when he graduated he approached Present Mics agency already knowing how to run most everything radio related and offered himself as an all-around personal-assistant/sidekick/radio technician. Present Mic really didnt NEED him, so he he doesnt make anything easy on him
Tumblr media
Hes a hard worker and really good at his job! he has proved his use and Present Mic adores him now, but he still causes trouble for fun.
Tumblr media
Though he occasionally goes out with him on patrols or for larger-scale infiltrations, the sidekick aspect of Game Sharks job is MOSTLY to work from the base and communicate to him through an earpiece. A trick they have set up is for present mic to place an item that Game Shark controls and allow a villain to escape a densely populated area, then using his senses to direct Present Mic to them. This is also the most common reason Game Shark is called in to help other agencies without Mics inclusion.
Tumblr media
Aesthetically, he wears those ear cuffs to protect from Present Mics voice, and is usually wearing red goggles or sunglasses to help with his own light sensitivity.
Finally: Present Mic fully believes he could be his own hero and is expecting him to quit sometime soon to start his own agency and is waiting for that moment, but he doesnt realize that Game Shark is actually considering quitting hero work entirely. Big Plotline i havent decided if i want to write or draw.

How do you deal with starting out posting art and it going kinda rough? I work really hard and it only gets two likes and then just sinks to the bottom of tags within a few days. It kinda kills my drive to make anything.
Tumblr media
(I've been away for the holidays, havent had time to answer these!! might be from the same person? either way,)
I didn't get much traction in the beginning either - I remember getting 1-2 likes, too. It definitely feels really disheartening. I'm trying to remember what helped...Here's my thoughts:
1: whenever you see art that you like, COMMENT! especially on art from artists that are the same place as you, yanno, just starting out and/or their art journey is at a similar point. It helps sooo much to not only see BIG POPULAR NAMES on your dash all the time, so try to mingle with people that are gonna resonate with you on an even level.. It's more healthy to feel invested in online art because you share growth and exploration with others alongside you, rather than racing against people who already are super established following-wise or expertise-wise.
2: Why are you posting? I want to spark passion, joy, and inspiration in others!!! when I stay true to those words, my art seems to reach more people, because my soul is in it, which resonates better = more people like it and share it! It sounds like you're already putting a lot of effort in, so that's awesome, try your best not to lose the spark of joy. Take a break if it gets too rough, and try to clear ur head and return to the mindset of WHY you're posting in the first place. And pls don't be afraid to change your purpose if you ever want to, let urself evolve, it's normal! 3: I used to get 1-5 likes, and now I get an average of 100-300 on twitter and tumblr (sometimes i get more if my post suddenly gains traction but yanno)... and, on Insta (which I only started using recently, but ofc some ppl followed from other platforms) it's more like 15-60 on average. Some people would consider these numbers miniscule... I don't consider any of my posts "flops", I just have a smaller audience than some other artists. Also, I almost only draw OC-art, so it's more niche...... All that to say, give it time, especially if you havent figured out your Goal yet and you're still trying to figure out why you're posting/what kinda posts you wanna share, or if your art is kinda niche. There's a lot of reasons why you might still not have a lot of reach.
recap: If you manage to find some sorta goal and you interact with peers, and try to remind yourself you're still growing, I think you'll get to a place where u feel more satisfied! i wish you lotsa luck, this stuff is hard. the internet can feel pretty hostile tbh, please never blame/shame yourself from feeling sad sometimes, cus it's rly unfair. We just have to do what we can and try to stay true to ourselves!!!
this got rly long, i hope it's helpful to anybody who read it!! love u all!!!! xoxo benni

it's really nice that you've been drawing so many warrior cats recently! your art and mad's inspire me so much! does mad have a tumblr? also, what's your favorite design you've made recently? (past year or so)
Thats very nice of you to say, thank you <:3 ! The past year has had many highs and lows for me, highs being just being able to rest from the lows- been trying to catch up on owed art so i can draw what i want more freely
yes, m's info should be in the pinned post on our wc design blog
and my favorite design i havent been able to show because its apart of a much bigger project i started two years ago (firestars family tree), but it'd be Nightheart :]
ugliest creature thing alive
Tumblr media
Oh and my Sol design too, tho im still not sure about his body type/ and the art here is old and ugly too

man i have so many DMs to catch up with i know a lot of them are just ppl sending me posts but i literally am unable to keep up with all of them now day to day bc they will build up so fast, im considering closing dms
but on the other hand, i hesitate to do it because its one of the ways i interact with people and i like to be accessible (though I really havent done a good job of it lately at all)
to be honest my hours on tumblr have been reduced so much recently bc of my life changes. between jobs and friends and other stuff im not on this app as much as i used to be, especially when have free time i want to spend in other ways like videogames (which ive never really super gotten into before, ive been spending more time recently playing) or art projects (i dont have that much time to draw anymore since ive become so busy but i love sharing it still and im super excited to show more stuff)
most of my free time i spend with friends and partner now which is something i really didnt do/wasnt able to do before so im significantly less online in general
the reason im talking about this on my post about dms is because I dont want to just not be around or to be quiet and seem closed off, quite the contrary, I just cant keep up with everything ^^; so I hesitate to close dms because I wouldnt want to seem more closed off or distant than i already do

[CINDERELLA BOY BEACH BOY ARC SPOILERS !!!!!]
(Pls turn away if you havent read the recent beachboy arc (ep 31))
A little self indulgent fic/prediction i think will happen in the next episode
Now i dont usually write fics like this and preffer to illustrate more but if i illustrate this whole thing its gona take a whole while so :,))
Anyways its sort of my first time posting a short fic like this, i didnt really have a structure or anything so pls go easy on me :,)
(though constructive critiscm is welcomed)
----------------------------------------------------
They were getting along just fine before so why did things have to end up this way?
Maybe Buddy was right- maybe he was too innocent and trusting
But he really did want to give Buddy a chance. But he definitely blew it.
That jerk.
He really thinks he can act all smug after doing that saying "he taught him a lesson". Heh maybe that kick will teach *him* a lesson.
This story will end soon anyway when Deacon gets here. Hah wonder if he can even leave Buddy on the island alone. Thats what he gets for betraying his trust-
Yet- that face Buddy had- maybe he actually regrets it?
What if he's being forced by the ex libris to do this?
Oh well doesn't matter
Its not his problem-
He has his own problems to worry about-
----------------------------------------------------
Wonder when Deacon will come? And wonder how he's holding up? Probably better than Chase is doing at the moment..
Chase laid his face on his palm as the tropical island breeze and gentle sway of the waves soothed his heart a bit. His eyes felt dry after all the crying, not only is he going to come to Deacon with a scarred face, but also a puffed up one.
That'll be embarassing. This is all Buddy's fault..
Speaking of Buddy for some reason Chase swore he saw something move just now. Oh no not him again.
With his voice a bit shaky he answered with a crack in his voice "What the heck do you want now? ...jerk."
Buddy just stood there still with the spear in his hand. His bangs slightly concealed his eyes but it wasnt too hard to figure out the grim expression on his face.
Then he got closer to Chase raising his spear.
"H-hey!! Dont you think you damaged my skin enough?! Back off Buddy!" (Do you want another kick to your face or wha 💀)
With no time to run all he could do is shield himself with his arms and close his eyes.
*Thunk*
"Huh?" He felt around and didnt feel like he got stabbed anywhere... then..?
"Here."
He saw green but then his vision focused. Buddy was quite literally shoving a coconut in his face.
"... you can have it.. if you want." He said in a quiet subtle tone. Looking away, as if a child was trying to give some sort of "apology gift".
Chase looked at Buddy with wide eyes, bewildered at the goth's actions once again.
As much as he wanted to deny the coconut from this jerk. He just cant pass up the oppurtunity for a free, finally opened coconut he's been trying to get all this time.
"....thanks" Chase takes the coconut from his hands.
And Buddy hesitantly sits next to him.
"Dont think a coconut can fix the scar on my face you know?" He said in an angry tone
"You know when you get out of the books the scar wont be there anymore right?"
"Yeah but it still hurts you jerk!"
Then there was silence between the two again. Chase angrily but obviously enjoying his coconut.
Then Buddy says something about his lore and it goes on from there jdbdjdbdj
Ok thats all the predictions i have for now 😭 i dont think im gona finish this unless i get more ideas or smth 😭
But tysm for reading till the end! Jsbdj hope you guys enjoyed this lil thing i did
Dunno if im gona do more of these but who knows- ill most likely do more drawings though-

either way HI i havent done a giant chunk of text where i just chat in a while. hi hi hello ive been actually drawing things for the first time in months. for so long i felt like i was just spiraling down into this horrible pit and i hate the person i became over the winter. but im getting out of that i think. of course its only around the second week of me putting in an honest effort to try and change the way i act, but so far i think im seeing a difference in how i communicate with people. ive been really trying to watch what i say and how i say it, and keep the guilt tripping tone out of my words, and i hope that it sticks.
i am NOT looking forward to summer, ive never been much of a summer girlie, more of a spring or autumn enjoyer. i hope that this summer- especially july- is kinder than the last few have been, and maybe if i can work on my shit, then summer will be kind because it wont have anything to throw at me.
ive made some new friends recently too! a couple i vaguely knew beforehand, but now theres a lovely group of people who all read either their own writing or writing they enjoy together in one big call, and i think thats really fun! i read part of ad astra chapter 1, and im so excited to keep going next time we meet :}
maybe being in a group of writers like this will influence me to work on some of my own writing, and maybe my new therapist will help remove a lot of the anxiety and problems we have with sitting down to actually... write.
either way, there are many "at least"s happening to me the last couple days. i cant say for sure if my mood is always going to stay this optimistic, but its there in the back of our mind at all times at least. even if i have a horrible depressive black hole day, that optimism is still there. which is good! thats a good sign.
i hope everyone is having a lovely day, and that you had at least one good thing happen <3
