#HFW OC

[soliscital]

hello tumblr!!

first proper post! a very late 'revenge' for @artekai to the artfight attack that they made for me, which I absolutely loved!

Kai and Fross are their characters in the Horizon universe. Their story is amazing and I insist you go give it the love it deserves, check it all out and support their writing <333

(special thanks to my bf @erevoid literally carrying the shading and composition for like 95% of the way, you're the goat, mwah)

Trying to figure out how to do horizon armor

This would be a winter guard in the Moons valley where my guys live

It’s always an interesting challenge to work with other people’s OCs, especially the morally grey—or possibly outright villainous—ones!

Thank you @hannahmationstudios​ for this commission request, I had a lot of fun drawing your design for your character Ared xx

Edit: I can’t believe I forgot to add the link to the fic featuring this scene:

Fallen Skies by Indiannahjones

[autistic-aloy]

my half self insert half oc for hfw... an self-inflicted outcast and traveling trader/ falconer!

He's not necessarily an outcast- more like a lonesome hunter who spends her days scowering the desert for machine and animal parts to trade. it was during a search in some ruins that he found a focus- and then found out how to tame chargers.

When Gaia came back online, she got signals from Trav's focus, but decided not to act on it, as she didn't want to reveal herself to some random stranger when she had WAY more important things to do. Then, after the events of HZD, she sends Aloy to contact Trav, as they need all the help they can get.

If she was in game, she'd work kinda like a very specific merchant- selling mostly animal parts and potions, but once in a while coming up with a rare machine part. After befriending her, he moves to the Base and hunts there- providing food for everyone and working as a convenient in-home trading center for Aloy.

And yes, Aloy can try to pet her harris hawk. It might bite her though.

Ared

@hannahmationstudios is an absolute triple threat, writing art and creativity abounds. Also she’s an undisputed Babe. 💖 If you haven’t read Fallen Skies and experienced The Actual Threat that is Ared, you’re missing a treat.

I made a full reference sheet for Sun, my Horizon Forbidden West OC! It was pretty fun to imagine how they would combine their Utaru heritage and adoption into Tenakth culture

Check @ DrowsyCapAD on twitter for the tattoo ref cause I can't post it here :3

[mochagae]

Hey uh thought I’d finally make my first post lol. Didn’t really know what to post so thought I’d just post a WIP of my Horizon Forbidden West OC. Her name is Kerrah and she’s from the sky clan 🤩

Hope people like it, I have spent WAY too much time on this already 😭😭😭

Presenting my Horizon OC, Lucia, final product of the little ideas I got while playing the game. It just seemed like the world of hzd & hfw with all the types of cultures in each tribe could use something based on assassins. I was also a bit surprised that there isn't a tribe using Old World names, either because of the Cradle facilities or in the case of the Quen, so here she goes.

update and rambling thoughts at 2am thingy;

last week we had a bit of a family emergency, and brain went into survival mode, and I'm still dealing with the fallout(hehe fallout) from it. Because of that, I'm still arguing with the fo4 fanfic. I think it may be perfectionism and just plain overthinking. There's something that is not sitting right. I've read and reread it and despite it being satisfactory there's something about it that isn't quite right. Which led me to this thought; I write novels, big chonkin epic stories. For some reason I'm struggling with the fanfic(s) and I think part of it is that I tend to drag things out a bit (look at the Union intro, 5k for the intro!!). And for some reason brain is thinking fanfic = not so complicated/not so long. I know that's wrong (there's one on my to read list that is at over 700k). But brain insists I'm making it too complicated and the scenes/sections too long. So I'm fighting with it, trying to convince self to just write the damn story, but self is a stubborn bitch and is resisting that. So, that said, the Union story IS coming along, but it's going slower than the !new!shiny! HFW fanfic. But it will be put up when I feel it's ready to be put up (or when I get fed up at it hanging over my head).

Heyhey I'm jumping on the bandwagon! :D I've been tagged by @artekai to do this picrew with my OCs!

Alas, I nominate @erevoid, @odnyrion, @anagniou, @novastellaris to join the trend (because you've all got awesome OCs) (and because you're the only people I remotely know on this site help <3) No pressure to do it though!

From left to right!

• Meril (Horizon Zero Dawn): A Banuk shaman who's trying to get over his traumatizing past. Curious about the world of the Old Ones, he finds comfort in trying to uncover stories of the past. (Meril belongs to @erevoid <3)

• Anash (Horizon Zero Dawn): A high ranking Eclipse who's devastated at the loss of Sorya, his only friend. Upon learning that she's faked her death, he abandons his morals and restraints and goes down a dark path, having sworn revenge on her. (Anash belongs to @erevoid <3)

• Luyten (Oneirophobia - D&D Original): A felifolk barbarian who's banished from her village for treacherous behavior against their religion. She and her unlikely friends adventure their way through the world of Speira and delve into the mysterious realm of dreams.

• Mercury (LARP Original): An orphan from a raided village who grew up to be an assassin for hire. Mercury makes her way into the ranks of a royal faction where she serves as a scout. She struggles with her identity as a person and doesn't let her emotions slip easily, making it hard to approach and befriend.

• Nameless (Minecraft): A biblically accurate amnesiac. Nameless claims to have fallen from the Aether but has forgotten everything else ever since and is desperately trying to find her way back. She spents her time in the Overworld learning how it works with the humans who nursed her back to health.

• Sol (Elite Dangerous): A seasoned pilot who loves explore the unknown. She's rebelled against the will of her parents to support the Federation, which has costed her contact with her younger sibling. She aspires to reconnect with them one day.

• Eden (Twenty One Pilots): A double agent who's an informant for the banditos, while also a trusted member between the bishops. The more she uncovers within the facility the further she's driven away from them. She slowly learns how to live between the rebels.

• Koi (Kingdom Hearts): Teleported from her homeworld under mysterious circumstances to Traverse Town like many others, Koi has to get used to a new form, environment and people, as well as dangers. She meets Tenelux, a fellow keyblade wielder who sticks around so they can find how to get back home together, combating darkness and jumping from world to world.

For the ask game for Motz!

Appearance: 8

Object: 1

Food: 11

Weather: 11

8. What is your characters favorite physical trait they possess?

Their big beautiful eyes 👁️ 👄 👁️ ✨ ✨

1.is there an item your character doesn’t like to leave without ?

Sprouts call whistle! It’s a kind of beacon they use to have him come running, it’s a very important tool for all captains, navigators, and medic and they should always carry one! They make a fun phWEEEeeeee sounds when you blow them! (side note the whistle was originally going to look like a vape pen lmao but I wanted it to look more “organ-y?))

The other Thang is Chop! Venerians raise and are currently domesticating wolves, chop is the grandpuppy of Motz childhood dog, Flower. Chop’s main job is hunting, being a heating blanket, and most importantly Companionship. He is excellent at his jobs!

11. Is your character food motivated?

Absolutely.

Motz Loooooovveess salmon and can be bribed with it if you have dried salmon (if they could have teriyaki they would kill for it)

11. What part of nature would your character most resonate with?

Equal parts rivers and wolves, they love how water feels and will just float for hours if you let them. That and because of salmon run season! The fish are in the rivers! The rivers give us fish!

And the wolf bit has to do with them being a social outcast, the wolves love Motz and Motz can understand them better because wolf body language doesn’t really lie or hide how they feel (the autism).

‘Thank you so much for the ask! I’ve been wanting to draw some more of them and these were super fun to do!

[i-lavabean]

It's been too long since I've posted my boy Wark

[the-drowsy-captains-art]

Made myself an Utaru OC! For funsies (no other reason).

[alessatarg]

Meanwhile, let's find out how Aloy ended up knowing about Allora and being in the current situation.

P.S. Those pages were super hard. That's why it's been so long since my last update. :(
