Is It Possible For You To Draw Skittery, Dutchy, And Specs 👉👈

I've seen a lot of your Newsies art and it's all so amazing but I especially wanted to show appreciation for your drawing of Bumlets. He looked fantastic 💖💖

thank you so much!! although i'm very focused on main characters, background newsie appreciation is important!! (yknow, the ones who can actually sing and dance lol /silly)

🌈☀️ - would it be repetitive for me to ask about jùnjié lol

Not at all! He's honestly one of my favorites, ask about him whenever you want.

🌈- What does this oc like and dislike about themselves?

Jùnjié likes just about everything about himself, at least as far as he'll admit. He's good-looking, charismatic, incredibly rich, and positioned to inherit a megacorporate empire that owns a *country*. What's not to like?

Sure, he'll never know if people like him or his magic is forcing them to. Oh, and sure, magic is banned in his country, and his parents are not only terrified of him but actively trying to get rid of him before people find out. And sure, he's the kind of mage that people think of as the boogeyman, because nobody likes the possibility that their brain is being influenced. It's not fireball magic. Yeah. Okay.

But consider: it makes cats like him, and he'll never admit that he actually thinks his personality is quite bad, or that he hates that his magic carries him. Also, it definitely doesn't bother him at all that most of the country he's to protect and inherit (and lowkey cares a lot about) thinks he's a lazy rich party boy while they're all suffering for scraps. He has nothing to prove, really. Shut up.

☀️- Does this oc make good or bad first impressions?

So now that we've breached the magic thing - pretty much exclusively good impressions, when he's 1-on-1 with you, in person. He's an enthusiastic and genuinely well-meaning guy, most of the time, and he loves people. He loves how people make him feel in his magical brainhole and/or his party boy brain, sure, but also he needs to be liked to survive.

Possibly literally. It really depends if they find out what he is and have a problem with it. Khonjae get kidnapped all the time anyway, held for ransoms that their parents probably won't pay for since there's others waiting in line to take their place...

His personality's weird enough that if you see through his magical charisma, I would *hope* he makes a bad impression, but he is generally enthusiastic enough that it might be at least neutral.

OMG!!! @olithegeek i'm sorry i'm very frequently sleepy and tired ahaha, an extra detail i forgot to mention is that you'll want to slip stitch the long ends of the tentacles together once you have the strip (of the primary and secondary color) which will join it into the proper tentacle shape and also make it curly!! sorry for leaving that bit out!! ^^;;;

Any chance I could get a pattern for the crochet octokitten?? Its adorable

hii! i want to preface this with a couple of things. first of all!! this is so flattering! i'm glad you find my creation that i basically made up on the fly cute /)///(\

unfortunately, making something up on the fly means... i didn't really make a pattern or take too many notes, because i really intended on the octokitten being a thing that i just made once, lol. HOWEVER!!! because of your ask i did try to replicate what i did, i think i messed up some stitches that make it difficult to make out what i did exactly. so while i provide a pattern, it is decidedly not the same looking octokitten, and you are welcome to play around with it and modify it as you see fit!! while this pattern might not be the MOST reliable, i did make another octokitten according to it and it turned out really cute and proportional as well.

pattern and other information under the cut:

i used 3 colors of 4.0 mm yarn (although the brown yarn is of a slightly stiffer quality and is a bit thicker and might be 5.0. but i'm sure it doesn't make that much of a difference :p). so you'll have your primary color (body color), secondary color (half of the tentacle color) and tertiary color (if you're sewing/embroidering on eyes like i did. you can also use the plastic ones if you have them, or more accurate to octokitten canon, buttons.)

head: 1 - magic circle 6 2 - inc (all around) 3 - sc 2, inc (all around) 4 - inc, sc3 (all around) 5-7 - sc all around 8 - dc, sc3 (all around) 9 - dc, sc2 (all around)

ears: ch 4 + ch 1 turn piece and slip stitch half double crochet half double crochet double crochet

body: (this is where i'm very unsure of what i did ToT) 1 - magic circle 6 2 - inc (all around) 3 - sc, inc (all around) 4 - inc, sc2 (all around) 5-7 sc (all around) 8 - 10 sc, dc (all around) 9 - 8 sc, dc (all around) 10 - 7 sc, dc (all around) 11-16 - sc (all around) 17 - 2 sc, dc (all around)

tentacles (x8): (start with the secondary color) ch 25 + ch 2 turn piece and half double crochet all the way to the end change to primary (body) color and double crochet all the way to the end

and sew it all together!

if you have any questions, whether it be about my pattern formatting (since i've never done something like this), particular wording, or whatever else, i'm very happy to answer them :))
