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.

A Blood Moon for a Thirsty Koopa

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.

Somewhat (Extremely) Hungry

Someone (you) picked a bad night to be out! Someone else (me) is somewhat hungry!

Pay no attention to the lack of words from the overly instinct driven hedge… bat… hog. Maybe you should run? If you can!

The grey version was an accident, I changed a folder property and liked how it looked honestly!

Art of two anthropomorphic red hedgehogs, they're the same hedgehog except on the left is them as a vampire and on the right is when they were mortal. The vampire has prominent fangs look fairly smug. The mortal looks concerned and worried In the background is lyrics from ivycomb & Stephanafro's ANTIVILLAIN: Hey, sorry, I've just swung back around. Your face is looking gloomy, you could use a... change. Don't worry, please don't look so down. You've got a problem, I've an answer, it's a perfect exchange. So maybe try on out my new worldview. Step out across the line, into a world that's just like mine, oh! Ascendant to divine, perfection isn't just a state of mind It only costs but a little fee. Just leave it, it's nothing, I think that you'd agree. Remove it, just lose it, give up humanity.

Remove it, just lose it…

Art an anthropomorphic red hedgehog. A vampire with prominent fangs and a bite mark on their neck. They look fairly smug. Art an anthropomorphic red hedgehog. They look concerned and worried

Hi my brain got taken over by YT recommending ANTIVILLAIN by ivycomb & Stephanafro and kind of was perfect for the “2023 vs 2024” energy thing I was doing. Granted I have something specific I wanna do for that but OOPS

What would Simon think of their future self? What would the vampire think of its past self? I think this would be pretty accurate if somehow that interaction came to pass

Okay now I’ve done this incredibly teenage lyric posting I really gotta work on badges this was a quick aside

Simon Rickson – 2024 Reference

Posted on by DarkOverord in Art, Reference Sheets

A character reference sheet for Simon Rickson, a red anthropomorphic hedgehog vampire (Direct Link)
🔞 NSFW image under the cut 🔞

So given some changes that happened after I got bitten by a vampire just before new years and the fact that it caused Identity™ to happen to me, I broke that promise I made to myself at the end of 2023 to not do any references in 2024. OOPS. Granted this one didn’t take as long as DarkOverord’s reference, just two months between poking commissions and other things, though I’d have gotten it sooner if I didn’t go “mmm bat too :)”

So there we have it, it’s now Super Official that I’m a very sharp fangy creature! As if the fact that I hadn’t dropped this after almost four months didn’t make that incredibly obvious…

A red vampire hedgehog looking a little scared and concerned at its hand now wing as it shifts in to a bat form. It says out loud "Wait, what the...? No no no no no no no no no no (cut off the screen edge) It's stood in a wood panelled room with a little table connected to the wall. The window is open and you can see outside and the moon is currently large in the sky behind the silhouettes of other houses. In the lower left is a doodle version of the hedgehog now in bat form saying "Note to self: Do not think of flying when not concentrating. This is fine, advantageous! Just... Not right now."

First Bat Shift

No no no no no no no no no no (cut off the screen edge) It's stood in a wood panelled room with a little table connected to the wall.

In the lower left is a doodle version of the hedgehog now in bat form saying "Note to self: Do not think of flying when not concentrating. This is fine, advantageous! Just... Not right now."

So you’ve been turned by a vampire, you’ve got sick new fangs, cool eyes that you can use to put prey to sleep, you’re struggling with being very thirsty but it’s growing on you now, and started seeing others as food and/or heat sources now you don’t make it any more on the account of the whole *gestures* not living thing, your body keeps acting on instinct but it’s been mostly fine ‘cus it’s been to feed. Cool!
Then you idly thought about flying without thinking about it and oops turns out the myth about bat forms is true! You’ll work it out!

 Oops the vamp train has well and truly left the station now so I guess we have a bloodthirsty hedgehog now.

There was shenanigans on social media and they didn’t leave my brain so here’s the end result of that. I’m mostly posting this now ‘cus it was very sudden for me to do this at 2AM this morning so this is technically the first art of 2024 :’D

This all came from a series of doodles that I’m leaving below!

Loopy New Vampire Adventures
Simon looking unusually happy It has grown fangs and a clear bite mark is present on its neck, where its shirt has been pushed away
A very fangy Simon staring intently off with a "now loading" wheel next to them In text to the upper right: "Currently processing: 1 - Why everyone in this food court is so appealing but not in an aesthetic or horny way 2 - Why its so hungry but has no interest in any of the food vendors" At the bottom under a drink there's text: "Some nerd's drink it politely relinquished so it didn't look as odd hungrily staring at everyone"
A rather vampiric looking hedgehog looking self assured as they look at the viewer saying "Hey, this time of year you should donate blood! I (in bold text) can help with that!"
A rather vampiric looking hedgehog acting a little enthusiastic and scatterbrained as it says to someone "Hey you should donate to your local blood bank! It is literally here!" as it points to itself It gets a response of "This is a WcDendys" to which the hedgehog replies "FIND ME AFTER YOUR SHIFT" implying a hypnotic tone The poor service worker seemingly swayed by this responds "Yes of course! =) "
A vampiric Simon looking at the viewer, perhaps even looking a little deranged with a smile and wide eyes. "..." reads next to them
A vampiric Simon looking at the viewer, perhaps even looking a little deranged with a smile and wide eyes. They're saying to the viewer "Did you know that hedgehogs are predators? I know! You'd not think of that normally. All this is tapping in to instincts I didn't know this body even had."
A vampiric Simon looking at the viewer, perhaps even looking a little deranged with a smile and wide eyes. "..." reads next to them as they stuck their tongue out a little
A vampiric Simon menacingly looking at the viewer, their eyes glowing They're saying to the viewer "But you know what will be much more interesting? You learning some prey instincts even if your species never was." Then in a different font "Tremble and freeze in place, it's only natural for you."
A rather fangy Simon, a hedgehog being very normal about how you should consider your blood would be better in them and that you should SLEEP They look very menacing.
