More reposting ayyy

Anyway- This was the result of a friend & I headcanoning some stuff concerning how our OCs woulda looked like years ago in Vinyl City, so it led to me deciding to draw out Ishtar's past self & what they woulda been wearing! I also added a few minor notes on the first image on what woulda changed which... Not much honestly, BUT still. & ...As we can see, they cannot dress casually for shit as this is meant to be "more casual" for them /lh I stated this is about... close to 5 ish years ago since that's close sorta to timeframe that we were headcanoning for stuff? At least this applies to rp verse stuff for sure too, but... I'll elaborate one day what this is for in writing/posts s it deals w their backstory.

Not seen also is the fact that they got a lower back marking/tattoo (?) in present day self vs their past self. Of which they are reasons BUT regardless!

I'm still keeping the outfit for their present day self too to use (...we'll just say they got a newer version lmao) so yeah.

Also... for one of the little things that changed from then til now, up close: past self vs present day self, that I mentioned in the notes

Stargazing shenanigans with the Neon Starchasers duo

Two short mothefuckers stacked on one another in the second doodle, not pictured is Ishtar probably tumbling off if they run forward /J

Little work doodles I decided to digitalize, ft KK, @breadbox-draws's OC o/

"—I-I thought we were done dealing with him—I thought he-"

"Easy, sparkles, easy... I know you're afraid. Believe me, I ain't too thrilled 'bout what happened earlier too. But, listen—If there's one thing's for certain? He's not comin' back, no matter what he tries, & he sure as hell ain't settin' foot here in Vinyl City. I know the possibility scares ya, but you know I've got your back throughout this. Promise ya that."

Little something based off some charter verse musings I was going on about earlier on a diff blog of mine, with this sort of being a. Doodle of what happened later that day or whatever, so yeah.

Context will be discussed on this blog eventually ☆ (since its already discussed kinda on my oc rambling blog LOL)

Ishtar | Full name Nyx-Ishtar Celis

An alien musician raised from Catemaco, Mexico whose primary genre out of the ones they explore is trance/psytrance. Combining their interests in the occult & music would bring about a unique flair to their own sound they’d create, & they’ve come a long way throughout the years as a musician from back in Mexico all the way to their status now as a charter in Vinyl City. Amidst everything, they've risen above the several hardships & circumstances they were dealt to attain where they are now… Albeit such a journey has unfortunately made them distrusting of most. Despite the generally lighthearted & at times flirty disposition they uphold to those who don’t know them well, there's another side to them that’s much more personal, a more passionate & emotional side that only those who get to know them start to really see

Figured I'd repost this here to kick off this blog, but! Ref of my OC/NSR Sona Ishtar, performance gear edition o/ Main reason they have a more... "regular" skin tone for human form is because I wanted that, when they shift to their actual/alien form, that the shift stands out, so! W/ their last form it'd be moreso akin to a blacklight-esque effect for them Also, they're very close knit with my OC Zion ✨

We'll ignore the fact that I'm planning to revamp this ref soon cause I feel it could be better </3 & also additional features for alien self altho it'd be one feature that can appear/disappear at will, will see

Also, a little bonus comparison of them with & without glasses LOL (as they alternate between contacts & glasses both)

Collab outfit design? Collab outfit design

SO amidst musing with @/breadbox-draws on interactions between Ishtar & KK (as DJ Apotheotic) for a Charter AU, the idea of them both doing a collab came up WHICH of course prompted designing this outfit as Ishtar would no doubt wanna match whomever they're performing with for a collab, so ✨

marking on the torso part, as well as the symbol on their visor & headphones, are actually that of the Pluto symbol, as shown below :

Also- Included the flat color version just to show fit colors w/o all the shine & stuff lmao

[estrelladeishtar]

Wanted to upload these sketches, as they were done for part of an NSR aggie collab in server, & ofc I just had to draw NSR Ishtar for it o/ (second image is based off rp stuff &--ishtar having a diff outfit while in alien form too cause. Halloween lmao)

Full collab is over here!

Small design notes ft. what Ishtar's mouth looks like when they're in their more alien form

The reason for both variations in color is cause it corresponds to day/night time (first day, second night), similar to how their hair & some other features on their body (in alien form) tend to shift in coloration also corresponding to the time of day

ALSO the barbs aren't always sharp! This is since Ishtar can use some of their limited shapeshifting in order to control their sharpness (or, make them smaller/nonexistent) & by default wouldn't be sharp anyway, despite appearing to be

Posting this here bc its the. Headcanon song I have that I figure would play in Ishtar’s district for their charter verse, that being the Astral Aether District !

(yk how each district kinda has its own sort of theme playing for when you’re in the district area that leads up to hijacking a concert? Basically this is for Ishtar’s district)

Zion's would be here, meanwhile!
