Ninjago Oc Secret Summer 2024!

What is a Secret Summer? - It's basically a Secret Santa (A secret gift giving event) but in Summertime/Not-December instead! - For this event, you'll be secretly assigned someone to draw/write a gift for based around their oc(s) - It's very important that no one knows that you are making them a gift and vice versa, that you don't know who is making you a gift!

Are there any rules?

- Absolutely no N/S/F/W or Suggestive content is permitted for prompts, gifts, or references. This is /not/ an 18+ event.

- No direct contact with the person you're making a gift for; you can communicate through me or someone helping run the event, or ask through anon on tumblr if you can.

- No AI art/writing, Gacha edits, face claims, picrews, or bases will be permitted for oc reference submissions or gifts.

- Oc x Canon and Oc x Oc ships are 100% allowed.

- Fankids, sonas, and self inserts are also allowed; my only rule is that fankids of Lloyd x Canon ships are not permitted.

- Please respect requests regarding holiday or seasonal preferences when making a gift. Don't depict an oc participating in a holiday or seasonal activity that the creator asked not be depicted. - For the art portion, you must draw the character(s) you were assigned and they must be visible (feel free to ask for clarification).

How many ocs can be submitted total? - Three ocs can be submitted but only one is required.

What will I need for sign ups? - Refs or art that show a clear, colored depiction of your oc - OR at least two pieces of writing for said oc (does not need to be a whole fic. Could easily just be a quick blurb showing how they're written as a character) - Basic Information/Fun Facts about your character. This can be background information, relationships, likes/dislikes, age and height, personality, etc. - Suggestions or prompts for your gift giver. Stuff to help get their brain going. - Your blog name (not the name you go by but the url name. Like @/Ninjago-Oc-Appreciation, for example. Make sure it's a tumblr url, and not from any other social media).

What's the General Timeline for this event? - Sign ups will be rolling out April 14th and will remain open until the 21st. Requests can be made for small extensions if needed. - Assignments will be made sometime after the sign up forms close; posting week will begin late June (exact date to be announced with sign ups) - There will be exactly one week designated as a late period at the start of July.

How do I sign up? - In April, I'll post a google document where you can submit your ocs! There will be one for writing and one for art! - Please reach out to me after signing up in some way. This can be through messages, asks, comments, etc. In the past we've had issues with the forms, where they'd "eat' a submission, and I'd like to know when to check to make sure this doesn't happen again.

Event Tags

- We'll be using #NOSS2024, #NinjagoOcSecretSummer2024, and #SecretNinja2024 as tags for this event!

That's all! If you have any questions feel free to let me know, I tried to cover everything but I may have missed something!

Feel free to reblog this post and share with people who might be interested!

This year I had the pleasure to draw @elementadroid 's character - Amanda. She's really pretty and drawing her (along with Garmadaddy) was so much fun!

My NSS peice for @the-painted-siren !!!

I drew Lyra drinking tea! I tried to make the butterfly look like Lloyd and used the symbolic flower given to me (Stargazer Lillies) to create a border! I am quite proud of this! I feel a bit sad I didn't capture the full outfit, but I really like what I've done!

Happy NOSS posting week! :D I had @marmaleye for the event and I decided to draw Eris for them. I hope you enjoy <3

It took me longer than it should have to think up an idea and actually execute it, but here you go, @summertide-treehouse :P

Hey @ghostly-one !! I was your secret summer gift giver, I'm sorry it's so late!!

I read a little bit of your story to figure out what to draw here. They're on the Bounty, by the ocean, and totally didn't steal Jay's copy of the latest Starfarer issue....

I imagine this to be like. A photo Wu took of them, hoping to one day show their parents if he ever saw them again.

I apologise that its late, I've been super busy or unable to draw. There might be another small thing coming to make up for it, but I wanted to get this out asap!!

I hope you like it, Lynn was fun to draw and I hope I did her justice.

Ninjago Oc Secret Summer Interest Post

As some of y'all might recall, last year I ran a Secret Summer event as an attempt to try out a Summer/Not-December version of the Secret Santa!

Well the time has come to start planning out another such event! This post is going to serve as an interest check and general announcement, with a more detailed announcement to come depending on whether or not people are interested.

The timeline for the event will be around the same as last year, with announcements in March, sign ups and assignments in April, time to create your gifts throughout May and June, and then posting in Late June.

If anyone has any questions or concerns, feel free to let me know!

[pan-annigans]

HELLO @starrbee!! Sorry I'm a little late, but HAPPY NINJAGO SECRET SUMMER!!!

I was struck by a somewnat ambitious comp idea when I heard that Cal had a motorbike! I've never drawn a motorbike before, and couldn't find any references you've made of their motorbike in the past, so I tried my best to come up with one on my own 😅

Cal is super cool!! I really like his design :) i hope she's off to FIGHT CRIME :))

[twilykai]

HIHII @this-side-of-paradisee I was your secret summer Santa!! I hope you enjoy this art of Raina as much as I loved making it! I’m sorry I couldn’t include a character from your prompts, but I’d like to imagine either Lloyd or Jay behind the camera taking this picture ! I hope you have a great summer :DD
