Z, Character By Unofficial_doodles On Reddit

i was trying to do a shading demonstration for my friend but I ended up drawing a really scrumptious looking sphere

idk what its made of but man it looks good

looks like the apple emoji style lowkey

OCs i made when i was 9 part 3

lol the random hedgehog

some of these are... weird af dont ask about the person with the stick idek bro

i feel like it's kinda obvious what time period these were made in from some of these clothes lmaoo

im actually trying to redraw ALL my old OCs wish me luck the 37 I've drawn already are all from a span of less than a year 😭 I was pumping these out like a factory

LETS GOOOO first drawing of jayden/zun qiang i have on here

starting off strong man i dont think (im 80% sure ngl) that i will hate this immensely in the future, unlike how i feel in regards to my other drawings of him...

if you know jayden from my reddit or artfight account... no you dont ignore EVERY old art piece of him ever idk what i was thinking

sid the sloth... if you know you know

bshshshshs the way you color skin is AMAZING the light scatter and reflection and stuff is awesome

what are your OCs like?? what are some cool things about their dynamic and reasons why? anything you want to talk about but don't get a lot of chances to?

omg THANK you i was just chilling and I instantly got like 10 notifications thank you sm!! ngl almost no one asks me about my OCs so don't mind if I absolute drop a bomb on you lmaoo

jayden (chinese guy with devil horns hair and eyepatch) thinks in a very black and white way, his two solutions to any problem are to beat it up or hug it out, no in between. and he loves snacks, one of the first parts of my comic (not gonna be posted for a long time unfortunately) is just him getting mad at a little spirit cuz it takes a bite out of his cookie!!

speaking of spirits the lore of my universe is kinda crazy too, there's a spirit world and tons of demons and cool creatures, and how it works is that ANYTHING you believe exists, exists in the spirit world its a true show for imagination lol and I love being able to just come up with wacky creatures or terrifying god-like beings.

also i said universe, not earth, for a reason. cuz there are ALIENS in my universe (the alien arc is gonna be soooo long, my plan for my comic is to include every character and plotline I've ever created, and I have been making OCs/stories since I was in elementary school) and I've made whole solar systems and technology and alien biology

magic is also a thing and it's closely tied with the spirit world. puma guy (no name yet but he's the purple blonde guy with eyepatch, and was literally created as a joke cuz I wanted to make a funny plotline about a flipped version of jayden) is a magician and he's very good at it too, and in my universe magic is actually quite closely tied to science, and for example, you cant just make an apple appear out of thin air, it has to obey (at least some, teleportation is completely not understood) the laws of physics and nature.

jayden is super happy all the time and he's rarely serious. he's very nonchalant about violence but it's not necessarily the first action he'll take. he cares a lot about justice and what's right though, he can't even comprehend that some ppl are truly evil, he innately believes people to be good because that's just what his morals are. he cares a lot more about other people than himself. also his Chinese name is 尊强 (zun qiang) which literally means something like "honour strong" he also has an evil sword with a demon in it that he can control cuz he has a bigger stronger demon inside him (unironically why his nails are black, he's not emo its the DEMON)

also i have something in my story called "levels" which is the shape inside my character's eyes (they all have one). jayden has a star, puma guy has a flower, yael has a backwards play button etc. what level you are is how many sides the shape has, with a curve counting as one side, so since jayden has a star, he is a Level 10. scientifically and medically its not called a level, but more like "spiritual fingerprint" since its unique for every person and cant be changed, its a literal part of your spirit. the levels actually do have an impact spiritually cuz the higher level you are, the better you are at seeing sprits and stuff which isn't necessarily better as the greatest warlord in history also had the highest level of 14 and went insane and died cuz of all the spirits he was seeing.

also prince lefayze (long hair dude with blue eyes) technically is level 1 but the monarchy insists that they are actually level infinity and just better than everyone else. lefayze is obv part of the very corrupt monarchy but he's quite cut off from what goes on and genuinely has no clue about all the horrible things going on until jayden comes in cuz he's basically forced to work for the monarchy but he takes his chance to get closer to the prince and show him how messed up the king (his father) and basically everyone else is. the king literally makes decisions in the prince's name, so this makes him quite the target even though the prince has never actually made any policies or statements, he's just a figurehead.

the fact that hes a target makes a lot of ppl try and kill him for valid reasons, although their hate is misplaced cuz again, he's not even doing anything, he's clueless.

i havent posted this dude, but there's a guy named fernando (I took his name from that abba song I kid you not, also took yael's name from new soul by yael naim, cuz that song is fr her) and he's... not on friendly terms with jayden, and that's being nice. I'll reveal what actually happens later, but he's the one who took jayden's eye, and no one's happy about that.

also the main cast of my TEN OCs (most are not posted) can turn into animals, jayden can turn into a lion, lefayze into a wolf, yael into an owl, Fernando into a deer, puma guy into... well, a puma etc

yael i've only posted once but i don't draw her a lot even though I've developed quite a lot of lore for her (involves autism and childhood trauma, very serious stuff actually, my story has comedy and very tragic/messed up stuff, but her story is one of the saddest) and she always ends up being the middleman between all the people fighting around her cuz she's dating fernando but she also doesn't think his actions towards jayden were fair, so it's kinda just complicated.

puma guy, being the opposite of jayden, is very serious all the time and he beats nazis up, that's literally his whole thing (very relevant in modern times I know) and he wants a relationship real bad, and it certainly isn't hard to find ppl who like him cuz he is attractive, but he can't talk to them!! he suddenly loses his ability to speak coherently around people he respects or people he likes, and it kinda messes things up for him. not to mention, since he's fighting all the time, it's just hard to manage a relationship, so even when he gets someone he isn't able to keep it going and it usually comes to an end. also he's probably got the strongest virtues of all my OCs, he only beats up bad people and he doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, always tries to be a good person (thank his parents lmao)

puma guy is literally the only one with a healthy relationship with his parents, the way he was raised by them did make his extremely selfless and it made him not complain (if he didn't want to eat veggies or smth his dad would just say "my dad was in the camps, eat up" and his mom wouldn't help cuz she would also just say "well my dad was starving and his house got bombed" ww2 generational trauma goes crazy

so puma guy bottles up all his problems and refuses to care for himself cuz "other ppl are doing worse than me" I love writing complex characters man

jayden and puma guy dont quite have the absolute hate for each other like jayden and Fernando, but because they are literally written to be opposites, they often disagree on simple issues (classic "I want to paint the wall blue" "I want to paint the wall pink") and they kinda have a really funny competition between them.

jayden and the prince... oh boy where do we even start. well I'll get this out of the way, they like each other a LOT, and its an interesting dynamic cuz jayden is always getting hurt to protect the prince, and the prince always feels really bad cuz he too cares about jayden.

i have one other character who's also fleshed out, but I haven't posted them (I really should tbh, but my current ref is literally more than a year old) and their name is rocksalt, and they are very blunt, no nonsense, say it like it is kinda person. they don't really show fear and they kinda just have a nonchalant attitude. very suited for being involved in laws and stuff. also they can turn into a cobra and again, more childhood trauma.

last thing... i have an old written story about jayden and his love for boba, it involves gang members and the old boba shop owner... who literally ends up in the hospital and has an IV filled with boba. and I wrote that for school, no joke. not to mention, I got a really high score on it the teacher was raving about it brooo

i lied about last thing, i also made a whole entire plushy of puma guy, except its a silly fat cat and that is literally the FIRST depiction of him and the first concept of him I ever made, a lot of the elements of his design make sense when you see the plushy

my SUPER old OCs (gonna be drawing as many of them as I can this week) these are from when I was around 9 or so (if you can't tell lol) my plan is to include every old OC and plotline I have ever made into my current comic, so... we're gonna have to figure out how to incorporate these ppl lol

man i LOVED stripes and patterns and colours... lowkey I still do

i'm trying to make their designs better but still keeping them as similar to the original version as possible

a lot of these are either white or east asian... def just copied the demographics of my elementary school lol

mfw the half fox half demon half angel princess warrior OC walks in

doing full bodies to make sure i know how to draw their whole design and also to practise posing and anatomy cuz I NEVER draw full bodies even though I probably should

these take like half an hour each and i usually have a minimal sketch plus just draw it in one go so it's not as clean or perfect I'm just trying to aim for quantity because my main focus is really just design and drawing them in my current art style

Rosalyn, character by NoHealth5568 on Reddit

it's funny cuz you can always tell that I like to draw face the most, like the face is always so much neater and polished

sigh i'm DEF not doing any more art trades until summer man finals be kicking my ass and I keep procastinating on some project that's literally art so it should be easy for me but I just don't wanna do it

been staring at your art actually I'm not normal about it the soft textures are edible

omggg thank you actually im still writing an answer to your other question its gonna be really long 😭

more OCs i made from when I was 9 I'm not keeping track anymore

why did i make so manyyy also ig im a furry now what was up with me and animal hybrids...

we dont talk about the cat lady chicken feet. i was on smth else back then wtf

ngl i see a lot of artists always draw crazy hair colours but... i went to a Chinese school lmaoo there was like one blonde person in my class and everyone else had black or brown hair, my environment is def reflected in my old art especially

can you tell that my favourite colour at this time was green

really glad no one can see my character annotations I made when I was 9... "soooooo nervous" "wicked cool devil" "very funny jumping lady" "people love his pants" "dat gun looks lethal" why was I so CRINGE

tbf the annotations do help me draw them in present day because they give me an idea of the character's personality and anything I wouldn't be able to make out by looking at them, but... still

What does the prince look like?

i flanderised him but this is literally how he looks like

Joel, character by Meowica_ on Reddit

finally a DUDE lmaoo ive only been drawing girls or non-guys

erm we dont talk about the japanese characters the person who made the OC doesnt even know (still love their art tho give them a follow), and i did ask 😭 hopefully it doesnt say something embarrassing, i only know chinese, not japanese

<3 high contrast and COLOURS

sacrificing my dignity cuz i had to draw a catboy (its a fox i know but still)
