LF: Tekken Oc's to draw

Posted 1 year, 18 days ago by Contradictingparadox

As it says on the box!
I've sorta gotten back into Tekken and I highly doubt that some of the folks that are sub to me have one but if you do drop em in the comments. This is for Tekken oc's only and I can't guarantee I will draw your oc but I'm in the mood to draw some Tekken stuff! Some follow-up questions to start a fun little convo If you decided to let me use your ocs as drawing subjects If you have more than one that is cool to! Let me get to know your babs and draw em >:3


1) Where in the world are they from?

2) What is their fighting style?

3) What Iron Fist do they first enter in and why?

4) Personality traits :D at least one good and one bad

5) Canon connections?

6) What color do you feel best fits your oc


--------

Answering with my own for an example >:3 her page is currently hidden but its being worked on.

Baiyu

1) Shanghai but moves to and from Hong Kong depending on the game

2) For those who do know the old Baiyu it was Drunken Fist, I have since changed it to Fujian White Crane

3) She first appears in Tekken 2 so the second Iron Fist and she enters for the prize money in order to redeem herself and not be a shame to her family [she thinks she is but her family loves her]

4) Neg:  believes her past shaped who she is currently and struggles to let go of the wrong she has done. It's a struggle to break free from her criminal past as she always seems to be drawn back in and hence views herself as nothing more than a petty thief who ruins the lives of others.
Pos: She is quick to adapt to her surroundings and situation making the best use of what she has at the moment. She is quick on her feet to find a solution to a difficult problem and doesn't give up.

5)  Lei: Of course, I kept her pairing but they have a cat-and-mouse relationship as cop and criminal both well known in their circles. They are opposites but balance each other out nicely. They only begin to have a positive relationship in later games

 Lee: Employer in later games, Baiyu has great respect for him and the vision he has for Violet Systems. She uses her past experiences as an infamous thief to assist his company.

6) As of now either black or red?

Art Trade: Interest?

Posted 1 year, 1 month ago by Contradictingparadox

It's been a few years since I've opened up slots for Art Trades and I'm kinda wondering who may be interested. This isn't me saying 'yes they are open' but more wondering who would like to do a trade. For my writer friends, we can do an art-writing trade so you guys are included in this. Some rules I would put in place

- Trade for Trade means full body for full body, couple for couple, sketch for sketch. For my writer friends I may need your help to gauge what is a fair trade. we can work on that

- Any NSFW trades will be done with people I KNOW and who are over 18! Again this is trade for trade meaning you also gotta draw me something nsfw. I will also match the pairing type. So gay pair for gay pair, straight for straight,poly for poly and so on.


- Both sides of the trade won't send over the finished result until BOTH sides are finished. This way we both can be sure we will get something. If one of us doesn't hold up our end the other doesn't get the artwork. We will let each other know when we have finished and once we both have finished our trades we send it over :)

- Sometimes if I get into a character/pair/art piece I MAY go above what is asked such as turning a sketch trade into a full render. I DO NOT expect you to do this! sometimes I just like how something is coming out or I enjoy the subjects I'm drawing and I wanna add a bit extra to it! if you decide to go above and beyond that is also okay! :) I never expect it but it's something I would like to add to my rules just incase. I still count it as a fair trade ;P because I can be a little extra sometimes



First off I want to say that Yes I'm okay. I know in the past I hid characters because I felt depressed by them/myself as a creative person but I promise I'm 100% okay! The reason why I'm doing this is that I'm getting closer to working on information on some characters that might be triggering to some people but I want to focus on getting the information done on their pages and add a proper warning to each character page depending on what is to expect so people can avoid characters that could upset them or be warned that information could be unsettling if they are not in the right headspace. I am allowing a small list of folks access, these are people who already know what to expect or may not be triggered as easily. all characters will be back in the public once they have the correct warnings! This could take a bit of time. Just wanted to make sure those who saw this were not worried that I'm not in a good mental state. In fact I've been in the best headspace in such a long time! If there is a character you want access to just let me know and I will give you a key to view the page. I will try to get them up and running as soon as possible! Thank you so much and I hope everyone has a lovely day

Heads up: Spam

Posted 1 year, 3 months ago by Contradictingparadox

Heads up for the incoming spam OTL I was dumb and accidentally deleted a gallery tab that had a lot of images. Also as I'm updating pages I will be posting art I've made/gotten that I've yet to do so because I was lazy I am going to try to space it out as much as possible! sorry in advance ;v;

Name recommendations?

Posted 1 year, 4 months ago by Contradictingparadox

So I got this new bab and I adore her! However, I don't have a name for her just yet and I'm looking for recommendations.

Some key things

- She is for One Piece, I have zero ideas on what crew she would be a part of but I'm open to ideas
- I'm thinking of really leaning into the plant aspect of the old information she had when I got her. So may have eaten a devil fruit at one point.
- Has an interest in studying various herbs and plants to be used to make medicines or poisons. May have a strong interest in studying Devil Fruit and those who have eaten them.

Oc boundary meme

Posted 1 year, 4 months ago by Contradictingparadox

Going to steal this from HaintSoul since she had done this and I think it would be fun.


Linking OCs: Only with close friends and Oc's that are fleshed out. Exception can be a new oc a very close friend has made! 

DMs: Sure, although I might take some time getting back to you ;v; I'm super sorry I'm busy and feel free to give me a poke once and a while because I can be forgetful!

Voice chat/call with me: Close friends only, I have anxiety with voice chat but I've been doing VC for my d&d group so I'm kinda getting used to it but we would have to be friends for a few years. 

See pics of me: I mean, I won't go out of my way to send one to you upon request but if you find one via my other socials sure fine. I don't take a lot of pictures of myself. I only send pics to my friends if I get a new haircut or show off something fun I did with my make-up since it's an art form I do enjoy doing but I'm private about.

Art inspiration: Yeah! I'm totally down for that! My style shifts frequently but if I inspire someone in some way go for it! I would also love to see some of the said artwork :D the only thing I ask is that you also learn from my mistakes. I'm by no means perfect but if you are going to use me as an inspiration I would also love to see you do things better than what I could do!

Design inspiration: This depends because some of my oc's are pretty generic looking. Like if they were to walk down the street you wouldn't give them a second look. I got no problems with that but oc's that have design elements that are unique to the character I might take issue with. That being said like just don't downright copy, feel free to use an oc as a springboard. I would love to see an OC that feels like their own person.

Co-owns: Here is the thing, I didn't really like to co-own due to past issues. It caused some problems when the friendship has fallen out. However, if we are close friends, the relationship is solid and there is a reason for co-ownership example would be the next-gen kid of two oc's I'm SUPER down! My view of co-owning has changed due to a few friends who were able to show me how fun it can be to co-own. So as a stranger or just starting out I would say no but if we've been friends for years like hell yeah! lets co-own some babs :D two heads are better than one!

Asking for pings: I mean sure? If you want to know the status of an oc page just shoot me a message and I can ping you if you wanna keep track of said character. If it's for commission stuff maybe ask on my adopt account Paradoxadopts :3

Asking to offer: Not on this account no, if the oc is on this account chances are I'm not going to give them up. I mean you can still ask but it's VERY likely I'm going to say no. However, if you no longer see an oc here that you like check Paradoxadopts because it could be over there :3

Putting my OCs in dream design folders: I mean sure? I don't see the harm

Is fanart/gifts okay? YES! Always! just PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tag me so I can see it! I love to gush when anyone draws things of my characters! The only thing I ask is that YOU are okay with others drawing your oc's because it's very likely I may draw something for you down the line as a 'thank you' 

Are headcanons okay? Sure, Headcanons are fun and if I enjoy it enough I will make it canon

Is shipping okay?  So here is the thing..I used to be okay with shipping very easily but nowadays I've been spoiled by in-depth ships that make me melt. So I'm VERY fussy with shipping. We would have to be good friends, The oc on both ends would need to have some groundwork for a profile and they need to work well as a pair. What I mean is in terms of story, some couples are naturally bad for one another but if it works for the story they are placed in that is fine. When it comes to crack shipping only with my single ocs or oc's paired with another of MY characters. DO NOT crack ship any of my characters who are paired with someone else. It's kinda disrespectful.

Is kinning okay? Please don't, As the creator of my own character I would know the most about them. I don't feel comfortable with people Kinning them

Is fanfiction/writing okay? I'm not a writer sadly but I LOVE LOVE LOVE written works! Like if you have questions about my characters in how they talk or their body language feel free to ask! Like please do the same with the artwork tag me so I can gush! I don't get written works of my oc's very often but I re-read the ones I do have. If people want I can also add a written ref for my characters to help with those who want to write them :3

Is using your characters as icons and such okay? I would prefer it if you didn't the exception would be for oc's I co-own and that's only open for the other owner of said oc.

Can people draw their characters with yours?  I LOVE character interactions even if it won't be considered as canon it's still fun to think about what ocs could be friends/enemies/family/loves in another universe. I only request that any oc shipped with another person's oc isn't drawn in a romantic way and the artwork isn't used for hate. If you are unsure ask me :3 but same with the other stuff. >:V tag me so I can shower you with love!
