Story Update
Since yo may have noticed a few changes in this page, here's the thing: I'm getting my story rewritten.
With Splatoon 3 officially confirmed, I now have a solid(?) plot to follow as it includes more lore and new characters. That aside, there are a few points I have to put across...
First off, all characters that originate from Squeaky's project will be written off. I honestly love what she made out the story and if this concept was turned into a game of its own, I would definitely play it but the problem is I personally feel like I haven't appreciated her work well enough in this story.
For instance, Agent 7 (Nana) and the hareling hero (Inkogen) did not serve as much importance to the story and I felt like I characterised them poorly as decomposite characters of the canon heroes. Whenever I did give them plot importance, it felt so forced that it just fit better with the others than them. It was even worse with Coralstar. Riva, Lumi and Squishy were more like gag characters if anything. What I'm trying to say is, I'd rather leave this stuff to the expert and creator and try not to butcher them.
On top of that, I wanted to make a story I could really call mine. I'm much older with better writing skills and I really wanted to put my creativity to the test. I wanted to feel a sense of self as write this and it just didn't work with the fact that I was based off another fan creation. Therefore, the story will follow the canon continuity of Splatoon. I could try to add the PS3 characters as part of the side cast to just make an appearance.
Apart from all that, thank you for all you've contributed, Squeaky and everybody who helped you out. Your project started a whole wave of creativity for all whom you've made it for. If it weren't for you, this story would never have seen the light of day. I hope you do your best (The hell am I saying? You already are!) and reach for the stars!
I love you all!

Marie: Man, they look like a real handful. How do you handle them?
Inkogen, watching Nana screaming, Korri trying to set a sleeping Hitto on fire and Maika violently punching air: I don't know either.

Maika: Would you slap Hitto f-
Nana: Yes
Maika: I didn't even finish!
Nana: Sorry, continue.
Maika: Would you slap Hitto for Tri-Slosher?
Nana: I'd slap Hitto for free.
Hitto: Rude.

Good character or ‘good’ skin tone? 🤔

My concept of how Hitto would look in the Splatoon 3 trailer.

I tried out more hairstyles for the inkling girl, in this case on Maika. I couldn't do the ends of the pigtails really well so decides to wing it.

The Agents
I guess now would be the best time to introduce my official artwork for the iconic agents of Squidbeak Splatoon and two OCs I made.
Casual Wear
Tumblr media
From left:
Agent 9: Inkogen Ghigau
Agent 8: Hachi Ligero
Agent 3: Hitto Fidelis
Agent 4: Maika Jelani
Agent 7: Nana Yaketsuku
Hero Suits
Tumblr media
Inkogen's hero suit is my own creation entirely. Since her species came up 200 years after its cryogenic dormancy, I decided to give her uniform a traditional feel by adding a native american spin to it.
However, Nana and Inkogen are inspired by Project Splatoon 3. I just gave them personalities and new clothes. I like seeing characters and giving them entire back stories. The quirks of being a creator I guess...
I will add concept art and character sheets for them but that will take time and I'll post them one by one for each character.

Agent 8: Into the Light
Tumblr media
This time I tried some new things like blending and more clipping. It really makes the job easier.

Agent 5: Pearl
Tumblr media
For once, I'm glad about how Pearl turned out. It's so hard for me to draw her because of her physique and tentacles so this took a long time.
The room she's in is the meeting room of the Squidbeak HQ where the team would discuss and plan on missions.
Her hero suit was designed to give her a chaotic look while still keeping to her style. She's supposed to wear a cloth over her nose and mouth, but I wanted to make her face look convincing enough.

Agent 8: Hachi
Tumblr media
As for Agent 8, I drew him in his default, special and inner agent forms.
From now on, I'll be giving him a muscular physique to reflect on the hardships he went through in Kamabo Co..
In the end, I love how this boy rocks a crop top in leather. The octoling who saved the world everybody. 🤗🤗🤗

Commander Tartar: Octoling Form
Tumblr media
This is just something I whipped up for a couple of hours. I had a lot of fun drawing this guy in my style and giving it a whole creepy vibe. I'm really shitty with backgrounds so I did what I could.
Expect the full body and concept to come up soon! 😊😊😊

This was based on a piece of promotional art by Squeaky for Project Splatoon 3. Even if Splatoon 3 is official, I can't help but give this some love.
Tumblr media
On the right is the octoling boy seen in Admiral Remora's uniform. To the right is the same person but in casual wear that came straight from the project, specifically the Thalassic Trench and Manta Sharks.
I'll be posting more of these. There are still two more pieces in the collection so be sure to see them.
Also, I'm beginning to unconsciously form a head canon for those three. Guess that's what happens when you like something too much....
