Oh No What Have I Done - Tumblr Posts

update for the mer izuku au! 

izuku pushed puppy out of the way and got wounded. puppy is not happy about that. he rememberd the ‘good hooman’ that visited the shore every night in case he sees his ‘water hooman’ again. ‘hooman’ worried about ‘water hooman’ means he might help. now puppy is racing for the shore in hopes of finding ‘good hooman’.

also surprise quirk! puppy is one of the few quirked animals in the world. does that have anything to do with the reason they were attacked?

every kitty maid barry sprite i have worked on so far

this post will be long

fig 1: tiny little sprite sheet (not to actual sprite scale)

thoughts:

Barry's dress was decently easy to sprite as it is essentially a palette swap with a skirt and a few other details. the skirt was a bit tricky to figure out, i originally wanted it to be a more straight/flat kind of dress, but it didn't turn out too well so i decided to give him a more frilly and detailed skirt. i loosely referenced the princess' dress in episode 1 of the DTM series. i was thinking about keeping his sleeves ripped but the little short white sleeves were too cute to pass up ^w^

also wanted to remove the tie but i thought it looked nice and fit really well with the colours, so i kept it

this is lifted from one of KoolTimYT's sprite edits, like the tail and ears and the blush colour, though the dress and bows are completely original art

those shrugging sprite were actually really tricky to edit, the first two were fine as the only real difference was Barry's head perspective and it being a singular pixel down in position, but the other two were kinda hard as i not only needed to sprite an unseen area of Barry's dress, but i realised the arms had a singular pixel difference so i needed to go back and fix that. also spriting a slightly different sleeve and trying to figure out the other positionings in general

spriting Barry's kitty nyah gesture hands was also a little tricky but i got a hang of it and i think i did a pretty decent job at it :)

those separate sprites with just his arms and the bows up in the corner was mainly for me to have extra assets to use in case i fuck up but i think they could be useful for anyone else to use

the pink bows were for the first kitty Barry edit i did where i was gonna give him a super colourful pink dress/suit

by the way i make all of these sprites in MS Paint and add transparency in Paint.net by magic-wanding away the unnecessary white spaces (why is unnecessary spelled like that i have had the hardest time trying to spell that stupid word for as long as i can remember what the fuck) (i guess you could say the stupid extra letters are unnecessary why is there a C???)

fig 2: the first sprites

thoughts:

so the one on the right was made as a complete joke when i saw KoolTim's sprite and i internally went "haha but what if he like being a cat" and gave him the bows because i thought they looked cute

as mentioned before i was gonna make him a pink dress, but the black one looked better. so i was gonna give him pink and yellow socks but they looked out of place and just made 'em white.

just realised..... spamton socks..............

the early "nyah!!" sprite kinda looks like those lucky cats that wave their paw you know the ones

really glad i gave Barry the dress because the look really pulls everything together real nicely

yeah not much to say about these ones moving on

fig 3: beta unused do not research

thoughts:

so the first one on the left is me trying to figure out which skirt type to use when i realised i wanted to use black instead of pink. obviously it didn't look very good. also just a sidenote the reason the outline is grey is because i often use a grey colour when spriting or "sketching" over a sprite, basically it's not finalised

the second one is me trying to get a look at how the dress fits on the shrugging sprite which is why it looks messed up

the other two are the same i think i don't know why there's 2

floating cat ear my beloved

these are a bit unsettling

fig 4: colour palette guide feat. my grapheme-colour synesthesia

thoughts:

self explanatory. sometimes colour picking directly from a sprite over and over can be tricky so it's good to have a neat little colour guide on hand for any spriter

the white had black around it because i drew this is MS Paint where the base colour is, you guessed it, white

yes i know the little coloured letters are ugly, blame my brain for going "but what if we colour these in the way you see letters" and me for agreeing with my brain ignore that pretend it's not there

speaking of synesthesia: R is green. you cannot argue with me on this. R is a green letter and i will die on that hill it's just so,,, green looking

may update this in the futore thankyou for looking at these

😂😂

I? okay mndfjkshfaj

What do you get?

I felt like writing. So I did. The problem was that the clock was quite a lot, and I had stuff to so tomorrow, so I put an alarm so I wouldn’t get lost in writing for too long and could get to bed early enough. I start around 22.30.

First, I set the alarm at 00.00, midnight. I can read for a while after and then go back to bed.

00.00 - the alarm rings, I turn it off and add a second, 00.30. I’m in the middle of writing a oneshot. I will stop when I’m done with it.

00.30 - the alarm rings. I turn it off and set another one, 1.00. I finished the oneshot from earlier but inspiraation hit for another and here I am.

1.00 - alarm rings. I’m still in the middle of writing the oneshot. I’m in the zone. I set another alarm. 2.00. I wont read anything when I’m done, just head to bed right away after I finish. (Not a good idea)

2.00 - alarm rings. An angsty oneshot is coming. I cant stop, it will be ruined. A new alrm at 3.00.

3.00 - How the frick did I just write five and a half hours straight? My back is sore and eyes are watering. When I stand up my legs feel like they are made of wood.
