Chasing The Sands

---------

If you were to ever pass through a thrift store, a library or some place that is rather old and/or of great importance somewhere in Pepperland, you might have come across two bizarre looking creatures surrounding instruments that measure time, weither that be a large clock, sundial, or more commonly even large decorated hourglass'. These two creatures are believed to either guard the flow of time, or are the embodiment of time itself, one represents the forward flow of time being the future, and the other represents the backward flow of time being the past. These two can sometimes very rarely be seen in visions by wielders of powerful magic, or priests, flitting through what is presumed to be the Sea of Time or some other void of space. There are no recent records of these beasts ever contacting anyone outside of certain fields... but some say if you have the right reason in mind, you might be paid a visit via a vision.

OK um wow! this!... shouldn't have taken as long as it did, like this painting took years to get done, meaning I started it years ago but then forgot about it and only recently dove back into it with new meaning. I've been trying to get into painting for a long time now since it's a form of art that has intimidated me for many years, and I've wanted to delve into making digital paintings but I never really knew where to start, until I got the newest version of photoshop and started messing around with the brushes at my disposal. I did start this in clip studio paint and ngl I'm happy I moved this to photoshop since the brush I found there helped me get a good grip on where to start my painting practice :) 

I want to make more paintings in the future but for now I hope you enjoy this one I finally finished ^^ 

Decided to make color refs for my two sonas, Ferel and Beast <:

sorry for the watermarks, just wanna keep things safe >>;;

Something I made for a new badge over on deviantART :V Thought I might as well participate lol

I THINK it looks ok, I haven't painted before in a super long time and I am not sure how to do certain things >>;;;

Just some art of my third sona, FerelBasta

Something simple to test out how I'd want them to look, I'll be going into detail on them later on, but for right now heres something to start out with <:

Here we have another (kinda) familiar face, Minister Squisker! I created this design for him years ago since Level5 has only ever shown off him as a redesign of Mckrakens monster form, and that never felt right to me, so I decided to give him an actual design :3 as well as a size chart. Now for a bit about him ->

Minister Squisker; as his name suggests, is a very important yokai in the royal court, he was also very close friends with the late Ancient Lord Enma, as well as his family being close with the Enma tribe in general. Squisker is a rather stern and rough sounding yokai but only ever is hard on others to try and bring the best out of them ( Mckraken being a good example), this has given him a reputation with outsiders as seemingly being a bit of a hard ass. Squisker has always been very supportive of his younger sister; Marina, especially when she decided to marry a yokai not of high society, he only cares for her and his extended families happiness.

Squisker does enjoy some down time surprisingly to most, when not hard at work he enjoys taking strolls around the palace, hanging out with either Ancient Enma ( usually involving drinks ) or being with Marina, Octavious and young Mckraken at their humble farmhouse a few town away. Squisker; while being a very supposedly open yokai, hates humans with a burning passion, no one, not even Marina or Ancient Enma, knows why the large squid has such a hatred for humans. The only soul who knows the reasoning is Squisker himself, which he had long forgotten until he was reminded one fateful night, one that he wishes he could forget.

Some more sketches! This time of two Yokai Watch OCs that have been on the back burner for quite awhile, just trying to figure them out. Who we have here are actually fan kids of two ships I really love, the first one is Roxanne, Agent X and Rongo Swirlls daughter, and the second is Oliver Kraken, Chairman Mckraken and Dr. Maddimans son.

I’ve had their designs brewing in my head for maaaaaany years by this point but atm I’ve been having big YW brain rot so I decided to attempt to get their designs down… at least their first draft. I’m sure something’s will change when I draw them more but their personalities are def set in stone :3
