When you wanna be bat but also have to be outside during the day for some unknowable reason (also that you shouldn’t be in the sun)

There’s no deep meaning behind this other than “DO hates summer” and “DO hates heatwaves” and “I was like this before I got funny θΔ feelings when I made my fursona a vampire, it’s just more valid to hate the sun now”

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

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"

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)

A red koopa (like Bowser) sits in a large chair sideways, one leg thrown over the arm rest. It has large wings and instead of horns there's a pair of large pallid ears, and its snout is slightly vampire bat like. In addition to this it has two very long fangs. It has a cape on with a large collar that is partly obscuring its head and is visible sticking out from its right side, while the rest of the cape drapes down over the side of the chair and along the floor. Its left arm rests on an armrest while it leans its cheek. In its right arm, a little outstretched, is a wine glass with a mysterious red liquid in, more than likely not wine.

So this was originally meant to be for Bowser Day but uh, I let scope run a bit too much

So now it’s an early Halloween pic ‘cus I can just say that because I’m the artist and I say so. We’ve had me as a (royal?) koopa before but that was a lot more hedgehog like, and also when the fangs were significantly shorter. So I wanted to do something a bit more batty and vampire-like oh noooooo

I really have a bad habit of letting scope creep happen in personal projects lol.
