First post of 2024! I was going to post this on the 7th because of a certain meme, which is why Rock is literally “dropping in” on that day…but I didn’t make it in time unfortunately. But that doesn’t bother me much because WOW this is probably one of the best drawings I made of Rock EVER. No contest. The pose, the lighting, the effects, I dunno what possessed me to make this thing come out so good, but I thank whatever force made me do it! :p

So, like Vivian before her, Wisteria (or “Wist as people call her for a nickname) is ALSO a Seedrian OC. But her design is MUCH more recent compared to Vivain’s who I had for a very VERY long time. (In general, I have a lot of Seedrian OCs that are old, just…I never really took the time to draw any of their designs until recently. That’s why she doesn’t have too many drawings compared to Vivian’s. But that’s beside the point. Anyways-). Wisteria, compared to Vivian, is more reserved and well mannered like you’d might expect from other seedrians, compared to Vivain’s smart talking mouth, and brash persona. She’s a little shy at times, but she can be very thoughtful and introspective, providing insight some people might not find. She’s also just a calm person, who goes with the flow for most things.

If you notice her design, Wisteria is actually a martial artist. And a VERY talented and skilled one too. This actually wasn’t the case before. She just had a staff as a weapon. But I’ve been getting into a lot of fighting games like Street fighter 6 recently…so that kind of influenced me to go the whole 9 yards with her. She even has energy based abilities too! :p

Wisteria trained extensively under her loving and supportive father, who studied a “fighting style from another world”. Although a side effect of that is that since she spends so much time training she hasn’t really interacted with too many people, let alone people around her age range. So she doesn’t always understand social cues. She does have a couple friends though, and of course, is very close with her dad, so she’s not totally lonely. And to the few friends she has, she’s very loyal to them. And will be to anyone else that becomes her friend later in life. (which might happen sooner than you think-).

I kinda talked a lot more about Wist than I did with Vivian. Vivian has a lot to her, don’t get me wrong, but I’m going to be showing her and Wist a lot more for…reasons I’ll probably explain a little later. So be on the lookout for that. Anyways, hope you guys enjoy these unique characters here!

(Also, almost forgot, Wisteria’s flowers are meant to actually be Wisteria flowers. But I drew them in a very simplified way because I’m not the best drawer, and probably wouldn’t be able to get them right. I like how I made them resemble twin-tails though :p)

So this is very different from my usuals stuff I post, but I actually have a couple Sonic OCs. (Yes, I know, I’m one of THOSE guys. I’m crazy :p) But that’s besides the point. I mainly have a lot of Seedrian OCs from the Sonic X anime, and this is one of them right now. Vivian’s my very first Seedrian OC, and the oldest one I’ve got. She’s a 9 year old chaotic girl, who’s quite the problem magnet. She’s hyperactive, and spontaneous, and pretty mischievous at times. And people don’t always take a liking to her because of that. Despite that though, Vivian can be a lot more kind and thoughtful than some people give her credit for. Even herself. (At least her friends seem to think so)

I actually have an old bio for Vivian on Deviantart, so maybe I might try to post that here? Who knows? I do have a couple of art pieces with her, but I haven’t drawn her too much because of me drawing much more MegaMan over the years. But I’ve been drawing her way more for…a few reasons. So I figured I’d show her off at least so people are familiar with her. The 3rd drawing is one of my most recent pieces of her, so at that point, that’s her most updated look.

So! A few weeks back I posted about Vivian and Wisteria, and how I’m drawing them for a certain reason. I won’t go into why JUST yet. I still gotta get some stuff done…but I will say, this drawing is somewhat related! It’s drawings of Vivian and Wisteria when they were younger kids. Vivian is 4-5 years old in this drawing (currently 9), and Wist is 6 years old (currently 10). I also slightly changed up the designs for them here too if you look back to back. One of the main things you might notice are the outfits, and their hairstyles.

Vivian has a wildly different hairstyle than she does when she’s older. It’s more longer and messier. The reason why it’s shorter in the future is because one of her friends cut it by her request….it didn’t go too well. But eventually they worked it out, and she likes to keep it short. :p

Wisteria’s hair is mostly opposite. 6y Wist’s hair is mostly the same…but shorter. Honestly, I didn’t really change too much about Wist compared to Viv because her background isn’t as wild as Vivian’s is. (That is to say, she actually has a good one, unlike the later unfortunately…which I may or may not talk about later. But yeah, Vivian goes through a lot her age.)

So I already mentioned I was trying to attempt to make an 8-bit Sprite of one of my OCs, but I technically already did this one time. Using MegaMan as a base, I made a sprite of one of my own OCs named, Anthem! And I’m really proud of how he came out! And wanted to try and make a full sprite sheet for him. I…never finished, but I still got very far, and made some neat animations for him. Making a sprite of Starfall kinda got me in the mood to sprite Anthem again…and I figured I could use a neat drawing to hand onto my wall…and I had old graph paper lying around…and you know the rest.

Anthem was new here, so I decided to add a quick little drawing of what he usually looks like next to the sprite. Maybe could be a little better, but it gets the point across. I also decided to add the version of Anthem’s sprite I made on the computer, but decided to make a neat new little animation for him. It’s not too crazy, initially I wanted him to be more animated, and move his body more…but I was on a bit of a time crunch, and figured keeping his body in a static pose was best for now. At the very least his face is plenty expressive like I wanted it to be, and I added a neat little smear frame! I’ll try to touch it up later though..but not “soon” later though.

Either way, my respect for sprite artists continues to grow the more and more I keep experimenting with this style…god I can’t imagine making 16 or 32-bit stuff…at all….

I’m back with another boss concept! The Magma Devil! This is a boss inspired by the many (MANY) Devil fights in the MegaMan series that’s as also made for that RP I mentioned back when I showed off the Omega Joe. I dunno if I like the Magma Devil more than the Omega Joe, but either way, I’m pretty proud of how Magma Devil came out! The rocks in his body are part of a volcano, since that’s where his boss fight primarily took place in. And yeah…he also throws them in his boss fight…so he’s a bit dangerous, but then again, what Devil boss wasn’t right?

Bonus picture, I made this for the RP too, but this one I had time to color! And WOOO I’m glad I did! It looks GORGEOUS!

Happy holidays!
