[COM-2025-01] Finalisation

Posted on by DarkOverord in Art

Art of a fox, Aira, in a dragon robotic suit. They're standing blank faced, confident with arms behind their back as only their head is the only part of them visible as a fox, the rest covered in metal plates and panels. Their eyes aglow with the same bright blue coming from various parts of their suit as well as from the dragon who is partially cast in shadow. That dragon identical other than being complete with its head attached, lowing a replica of it's head down on to the fox to finalise their transformation in to another unit like itself.

Inked commission for Aira of a continuation of a piece I did during my art-a-day challenge in 2015 featuring my robot dragon, DK-0VD-D4M-C40000, assembling a robot suit around the blue fox:

Art of a fox, Aira, in a dragon robotic suit. That’s being constructed around them, parts and screwdrivers strewn around the area as a red dragon robot is assembling the parts on Aira. Aira has a slightly dopey, hypnotised, happy smile, not caring what the robot is doing.

Fun to revisit it in two regards, 1) DK-0VD is significantly taller now meaning I had to kind of make Aira looked dwarfed by their new soon to be look, 2) I don’t get chance to draw DK-0VD much mostly on account of it having a lot of detail work. Like, a lot a lot. I could shortcut parts in this piece due to how it’s done (they’re identical, it’s from a point of view dead on them both, and so on) but if it was a piece more dynamic (action, fighting, etc.) it’d be a loooooot longer to do than it took (which as always with DK-0VD I underestimate).

Inked pieces like this are also good to do with it because you can have fun with the detailing work without worrying too much about rendering it all, like how I think one of my best pieces in Inktober 2019, Build, went.

I’m very happy with this piece overall!

Synth DarkOverord? Simon? Both???? Me!

Posted on by DarkOverord in Art

A red synth (Vader-San's open species), a reptilian looking robot race, standing tall. It has blue and green heterochromatic eyes on it's screen. It's head plate is more angular than most synths, as well as two extremely prominent fangs. It has a grey underbelly with multiple plates running from head to the end of its tail. Along its back are multiple red plates with gold trims to look like hedgehog quills. There's a purple gem embedded in its chest. To the left side is a mirrored bust showing the other coloured eye as well as its open mouth and pale tongue. There's two notes pointing at that version that say "Still got heterochromatic eyes" and "ooooo what do the funny lights decreasing in count mean oooooo"

So last year I did a few doodles when I found out the 16th of February was the anniversary day Vader-san posted the fact sheets for his Synth species (1, 2, 3, 4), and officially made them an open species. I’d been meaning to design one for years but last Feb I finally I did a sketch and played with it

2024-02-16 – Doodles – Synth – 62024-02-16 – Doodles – Synth – 6

The basic design principles were simple: It’s based off my hedgehog, Simon, but it isn’t particularly “that shape” so I basically smashed Simon and DarkOverord (the dragon) together.

Simon points: Red colour, fangs (duh), eyes, claw colours, bite mark and tongue colour, also clearly somehow still a vampire
DO points: Zigzag horns, underbelly and leg patterns, its whompus tail, The Chest Gem 95% of the DOs Have

So I went about and then y’know, I got ill. I had it all ready to go after Regdeh’s commission hoping to do it on the Friday after I streamed that piece (which would’ve been 2025-01-24). So I decided to do it as a “Well I’m well now right?” returning stream on the 2nd and 3rd of February.

The glowy lines are a little Extra™ but I was having fun. I like how it came out!

Also I made a hex pattern paper texture for the first time and I spent an hour doing that. Not perfect, but got the effect I wanted! This is also when I learned that SAI/SAI2’s paper textures don’t need to be squares. Could probably make it more efficient by cropping out the sides but eh, worked!

A vampire hedgehog laying on a large bed, propped up by a grey cushion. Its left leg crossed over its right leg to show the sole of its left paw. It has a mischievous smirk on its face, as mistletoe is tied around the quill drooping over it's face to leave the mistletoe hanging over the end of its snout, where its fangs are. It is leaning its right arm on the cushion, hand doing the "come hither" pose. While right arm raised with a glass of "wine"

It’s Christmas Oh Look Where the Mistletoe Is

You should let my fangs kiss your neck!

Merry holidays, I’ve got fangs still. Maybe with a little, encouragement?

Fun character fact: Simon’s birthday has always been Christmas Day, or if I eventually decide if in OC canon that isn’t applicable it’ll be the Winter Solstice. Simon, and its twin, do have a smidge of resentment for effectively having the “forgotten family birthday”. Maybe since turning Simon doesn’t care, or can make people properly say happy birthday.

(Anyway my birthday is in summer just to clarify that XD)

Enbeyon, a Umbreon with Non-binary flag colours, looking happily at the viewer while sat on a SEGA Master System

This was a piece I did for Enbyeon as they were wanting to create a community piece made of doodles and the like relevant to their streams for their office after they moved and I really wanted to do something for them c:

I had intended to do more but time unfortunately wasn’t on my side but I’m happy with how this came out.

They’ve actually had the piece for a couple weeks now but I wanted to give them time to collate it all, get it printed etc. before I posted it :3 It looks good honestly!
