I knew I did post about this man before! So a while ago I got my hands on these little references for M and rewamped them a little to be more accurate and fixed the awkward rendering on the piece above.

I posted a bit more art of him on my toyhou.se: https://toyhou.se/15415621.m

2023 vs 2020 Here we have M, one of my rp characters, he was originally called Malec and he grew up in a very small rurual town as an orphan. He is very reserved and bitter towards the world and himself. He deals with a lot of selfhatered that he has no idea how to deal with, so he turns to smoking and alcohol. He feels like being alive is his curse for what he did to his mother.

[Trigger warning] Malec's mother was a very abusive woman, and she ended up dying because Malec tried to protect himself from her (she ended up falling down the stairs, which ended up being a fatal accident)

Man I do have to say my art changed drastically since 2020, one of the things I am really happy about is that I dropped drawing all characters with the same thin and very slender body - not that there is anything wrong with it but c: I am personally really glad I am finally branching out of it

I was still a teenager back then, now as an adult I feel like I am growing to appriciate people of all sizes a lot more, and I hope going forward I can do it more justice with my art (I am thinking especially about more masculine/muscular people and chubby people of all gander OH AND muscular women too?? god please)

another little ship art for me and my friend. M is my oc that I'm pretty sure I posted about before. His and Rudy's story is really full of a lot of hardships and truth be told, life was not easy on these two. But while Rudy is slowly recovering from his issues, M's stuck in some sort of limbo, that he willingly chooses not to do anything with. Some could say he finds his own suffering comforting in a way.

Another batch of me redesigning my very old characters 😭

At this point I really can't pretend that I don't absokutely love thick and nice eyebrows, its such a treat to give them to characters, I just can't stop myself

Anyway this time c: we have Peter and Antony, some very old characters that I made when I was still a kid

[somyioki2]

Some traditional sketches of Clemens c:

Clemens actual name is Clementine but he feels a bit embarrased because he feels like it sounds too girly (in his opinion) so he always introduced himself as Clemens (earning him a 'clem/clemmy' nickname which he actually hates even more)

[somyioki2]

It's a work in progress so the outfit is a big mess c: But this is my boy Isaac, he is a REALLY old oc that I decided to repurpose for the rp I am doing with my friend He is a lyricist for a metal band. He never was really good at expressing his emotions through conversations, which made it hard for him to understand himself a lot of the time. But he found an outlet in creating music, which became his way to share his deepest and rawest feelings as he continued to explore this form of art. He is also a bit shy and quiet, but because his resting face is pretty much a frown, some people think he looks intimidating. (It always confuses Isaac, he still hasn't caught on that this is the reason it happens)

[somyioki2]

Max slaying an outfit. He cannonically has connections to a modeling company and some very fashionable and rich people. He tends to get some fancy clothing items from time to time, as gifts. He likes to dress up in front of his boyfriend (Neo) for laughs and giggles. Mostly because his demeanor and stance don't really reflect someone who would usually wear these clothes. His boyfriend really likes it when he does that though, he finds him super pretty. (Max also tried to convince Neo to wear some of these clothes too, he is a huge simp for his boyfriend)

[somyioki2]

For whatever reason, when Max and Neo are together, they always end up with just one braincell to share. From the moment they met they were always somehow pulled towards each other, even if for a long time their feelings towards each other weren't romantic.

They are just silly little goofballs, that somehow really know how to support each other.

They belong to my friend and I :D! And are part of our rp Kind of the main characters of it (sort of, there is SO many characters in this story, I guess I could say that we just started with these two)

[somyioki2]

I was also thinking about posting some of my finished pieces too

[somyioki2]

I have recently finished moving c: and I am slowly trying to go back to working on my characters Recently I tried to come up with a design for Bo's dad. I still have no name for him, but he is a fun single dad who had a very good relationship with his now teenage boy. He supports him in his unusual hobbies (Bo is really into cosplay) even though he might not understand them much,

[somyioki2]

Some more sketches of my lil kids, This time we have milo and Judah. They are a duo of friends you wouldn't assume would even get along with each other. Milo (the pink one) is the youngest out of 7 siblings and he only has one sister who happens to be the second youngest in family too. (She is their mother's favorite). He is a sweetheart who menages to get along with pretty much everyone. Judah on the other hand wakes up with the wrong foot off the bed everyday without fail and is always butthurt over something. He is not only shorter but also a lot more harsh on other people. Milo and Judah balance each other out though, and fill the gaps the other might be lacking in. Judah helps Milo with being more assertive and not pushing himself as much to fit other's perception of him (He do be worried about his older brothers' perseption of him ngl) And Milo just helps Judah see a bit more of the good in the world tbh.

I could probably share more stories about these two but everytime I sit down to sharing anything online about my characters I feel like my brain is frying

[somyioki2]

Is it morally acceptable to post shitty camera pictures here on Tumblr I wonder (of your drawings)

[somyioki2]

I have been trying to focus a bit more on sketching lately, and gave up on trying to do very polished art for the time being - gotta get rid of that unhealthy perfectionism frfr

here are some sketches with Ollie and then Ollie with his rat boyfriend Ethan, a stinky white man with blue hair. They are very cozy and happy together

Hey guys I have updates on Martyn >:^)

As he has been trying to help out a man named Gabriel with getting a job at the company he works for, he got introdced to the joys of being an uncle for a little boy named Elliott Now he has a part time job on the side - attending all of this little guy's tea parties

Here are some of my old character's redesign concepts. For Martyn and Mathew respectively c:

Martyn is my little funny man working in an office. He works as a secretary to a very wealthy man who happens to be his friend since their teenage years as well. Martyn though, loves his time off more than anything, and takes it equally as seriously as he does his actual job. In his free time, Martyn's practices archery and likes to visit his family in the country side.

Martyn has a mix of toned down blues and purples in his design, he also wears mostly black. It gives his design some unision and that professional look. But right underneath that hide these bright red tatoo sleves. Creating contrast that comes out only when Martyn is off work, which I think nicely accents his additude towards these two things in his life c:

And here we have Mathiew! :D probably one of my earliest ocs I ever made, he is a little baby (he is very much a grown ass man) I do think I could have emphesised his body shape a bit better and over all make him look a little bit bigger.

Mathew is the youngest kid in his family, he has two elder siblings - Sara whom he shares his biological mother with and Felix - the eldest, whom he is only half siblings with. They come from a very rich family. Their father left his firm to his eldest son Felix while the other two kids were left to live in his shadow. The siblings were never really close with each other, but it never caused Mathew to resent his older brother. More so it made him sad, as he always longed for that brotherly bond with Felix. He often envied other people's relationships with their siblings in a way.

Mathew decided to try and build his own life and his own name on his own. Even though he came from a rich family, he picked up a lot of odd jobs here and there to gain necessary experience away from his family's infulence. That's how he eventually ended up working for the same firm as Martyn, and worked under the same man named Drake.

That's where these two met, and ended up getting into a relationship with each other - it was rather a short lived one, (mostly because Martyn couldn't forget about the man he has been crushing on for years at that point) but they still are on good terms with each other and have an equally soft spot for the other's antics. I would definitely love to tell you guys more about these two in the future.

I have been trying to work on rewamping more of my old character c: despite the fact that there is a lot of them and the progress I make is very gradual I am finally starting to feel like I am doing progress

It's definitely something I feel like I owe younger me, to finish what they were always trying to achive and take good care of these characters

[somyioki2]

For how long i have been fighting myself about it, I finally cave in and started making spreedsheets in Google docs with my characters 🧍‍♂️

Its been very fun and enjoyable actually

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

Recently i have been really fighting my adhd brain in attempts to make a coherent list of my old characters. It brought me to tears, and required some scissors and a proper seat on the floor but I got somewhere more or less >:3 and menaged to narrow it down to doable groups related to each other by uhh plot I guess? or setting Today I got to sit down to one of my first redesigns/redraw of my OC Adam! Halleluyah! Man's pale as heckkk in his original design - so I started with drawing him vampire shaded as he was in his original design, but then I got straken by an amazing idea to give this poor man a little bit of melanin and now I am torn cuz jeez I like all these versions, he looks absolutely stunning

Rei is voting for the lighter tan version but I will have to see what I decide to go with in the end :c I love my little scunklie already

There is about 26 more characters to go in this batch so I will share the rest with you guys later too
