ID: A digital drawing of Alvin from How to Train Your Dragon. His name and the franchise title is written in the top right corner in pale brown. Along the right of the drawing is Alvin's color palette. Alvin is a large, broad-shouldered man with long dark brown hair, beard, and mustache. He has greenish-hazel eyes, dull and pale skin, and a large rounded nose. He wears a helmet with long asymetrical bone horns protruding to the sides, metal shoulder armor adorned with dragon teeth. He's also wearing dragonscale shirt of blues and browns with a red undershirt, dark purple, blue, and green dragonscale pants, and fur-lined leather boots. One of the leather arm braces he wears is visible, the other hidden behind his back. /End ID.

And so we're back with the new drawings! They're similar enough I think to how I was doing them before, but I've found myself finishing them faster and trying new coloring techniques. Also introducing the brush I nornally use for shading because I think that looks a little better.

As for Alvin... I'll be totally honest, as much as I love HTTYD I still have not watched Riders/Defenders of Berk. They're on my list! But alas, I am too broke right now and before I was just drained by work T-T

From what I read on his character though, he seems like an interesting antagonist!

Welcome all OC enthusiasts! This entire August 2026 will be all about your OCs, or more specifically, the dynamics between them. Post your writing, art, or whichever medium you choose on Tumblr with the hashtag #ocdynamicsmonth26 and make sure to show some love to other participants as well! Your posts will be reblogged to this blog.

My asks are open for any questions & comments you might have! Please read the rules and prompt guide first!♡

Rules:

Original characters only! Fandom OCs are fine, but the characters within the dynamic must be OCs.

Make something (writing, visual art, some other creation) with a given prompt, then post it on Tumblr during OC Dynamics Month and use the hashtag #ocdynamicsmonth26. Interpret the prompts freely and include as many OCs within the dynamic as you wish!

You can post your work late, for example you can post your creation for Day 1 on Day 15 if you want! All I ask is that you don't post them early.

There are no strict rules for what content is allowed. However, I may choose not to reblog something if I feel that it goes against the spirit of the event (AI generated content, hateful content etc). Including content warnings for heavy topics is encouraged!

Event is over but you still want to do the prompts? No worries, keep working on the daily prompts or fill the bonus prompts if you wish! I'll keep reblogging posts for a while after the event is over.

Bonus rule: interact with at least one other creation for each piece you make yourself! Like, reblog, leave a reply, or even send the creator a message if you want - let’s spread the love! ♡

Prompt guide

Each main prompt contains a type of relationship and an adjective. You can fill a day's prompt in one of 3 ways (using the first prompt as an example): 1. use only the type of relationship → make a piece about ex-friends, 2. use only the adjective → make a piece about ocs with a powerful dynamic OR 3. use both → make a piece about ex-friends who have a powerful dynamic. 

This year, the bonus prompts are dialogue prompts. You can combine or swap them with main prompts or just do them in addition to the main prompts! You can use the exact wording, tweak it to fit your piece, or simply use the dialogue to inspire your work without using it directly.

Prompts

[ID: A red digital sketch page of Evanna Mays. There are a total of 6 sketches. From top to bottom: a sketch from the chest up taking up the top left corner, a semi-chibi bust in the top right, a headshot of Evanna looking down, a chibi headshot in the center, a rough fullbody sketch of Evanna sitting on some boxes with a leg propped up, and a rough fullbody sketch of Evanna laying down with her wings extended. /End ID.]

I really love how swoopy Evanna's hair is, like. Idk. Drawing her helps get me out of art block bc I can just turn my brain off

Commissions!

As the graphic says, I recently rescued a kitten and I figured a good way to help take care of him would be if I directed all commissions toward his needs.

As of 6/21/26, I also have about a week left of my current job and am still looking for a new one. My final paycheck will be enough to cover my usual bills for July, and I know I can get a job (or some money in general) by August but because of this sudden layoff, I figure these can ensure Binkly is cared for.

ID: A digital drawing of Aloysius from Hilda. His name and the show's title are in the top right in yellow, with his color palette in the bottom right. Aloysius is an elf with brown skin, white receding hair and black eyes and arms. He's wearing a blue, red, and yellow pointed hat, blue robes with gold hemming and a red sash over his shoulder. Aloysius also has a black staff with a white ball at the top. /End ID.

All the elves from Hilda are genuinely so fun to draw - I'm glad later on they introduced more designs than just the white near-stick figures.

it was a funny meme at first but I'm once again being reminded of how many people, including other lgbt people, don't actually see nonbinary characters as who they are, and don't hestitate to stick them in a box or under a label for a joke or fetishization

"There, in a river far from itssource: Sjur Eido lives."

[ID: Two sketch pages of Stardew Valley farmer OCs and various other characters.

Image 1: A blue sketch page of Arapaima and Alex Mullner. Most of the page is a sketch of the two kissing, with 5 smaller sketches in the rest of the page. From top to bottom: Arapaima holding Alex up in a sideview; a chibi headshot of Arapaima; a chibi headshot of Alex; a simple sketch of Alex and Arapaima at a river with Arapaima inside it and Alex sitting on the bank with a gridball; and Arapaima asleep leaning on Alex's shoulder.

Image 2: A purple sketch page of Sour Patch. A bust sketch of it takes up most of the page, with 4 smaller sketches filling the rest of the space. From top to bottom: Mr. Qi holding Sour Patch's face; Sour Patch looking over Maru's shoulder and talking; a simple sketch of Sour Patch on the floor sewing fabric; and a chibi headshot of Sour Patch. /End ID.]

My two farmers have been rotating in my brain a great deal lately. Especially Arapaima and his relationship with Alex. So! Did some really loose sketch pages to get some of those thoughts out (plus the brain was not putting words to paper and when that happens, drawing breaks are very necessary ^^)

And then Sour Patch's relationships - I really need to write one focusing on it and Mr. Qi's relationship, cause I imagine it as something extremely toxic but that Sour Patch doesn't really realize, because Qi's just intense and SP is usually the intense one in any dynamic
