In comparison to Ogen (who I had a lot of questions about), drawing Kazan was the perfect level of not stressing out about what is being worn and availability to make him a bit more personal (and disheveled). We don't see his feet, so I took the liberty to give him xue.

Fan art of Kazan from the video game Octopath Traveler II in which he is posed to display his Path Action as seen in the mobile game Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent. In full render, Kazan stands tall in a toast, holding high a red sake cup in his right hand and a bottle guard lower in his left, with a wide smile and flushed face. He wears his standard garments of a white robe over a green top and maroon-ish burgundy bottoms. On his feet are brown boots that cut off at the bottom of the calf. The canvas is of a solid mute green fill and behind Kazan figure reads his name in Orsterran text as well as "Kazan, Traveler 241" underneath it in smaller print.

Aviete's pose is her facing forward with a front paw brought to her chest, resting on her the leaf clasp of her cape. She has her other front paw raised upwards. She has a friendly smile on her face.

Wait ALREADY?! We just did Aoi!

Oh well. Anywho, CASSIA TIME!

Not going to lie, I nabbed Cassia because she gave me phantom thief vibes with the cape. I actually did her alongside Aval, so that was fun!

Admittedly, her pose is a bit stiff in retrospect, but I’m proud of the cape plume! ÙuÚ

Cassia's pose is with her standing with a poise of dramatics. She has her body turned slightly to the side and she holds her cape up towards her chest, giving her a distinct pose. She has a smile on her face, giving a confident look.

AYYYY! MY GIRL!

Not going to lie, this was TOUGH. Like, even Aval wasn’t this bad with the amount of detail, and he’s DETAILED! XD

Nonetheless, I wholly enjoyed the challenge, and I think she turned out GREAT! (Oh man, and now I’m getting flashbacks to the drawing process. Good times!)

A full body drawing of Aoi from Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent. Aoi was drawn by Kazuyumi.

Aoi's pose is with her standing on one foot while the other is gracefully behind her, on her toes. She has a focused expression on her face as her arms are posed with one in front of her, while the other behind, resembling a dance-like stance. Around her, are cherry blossoms flying around.

Octopath fans should take a look at this, these look really well crafted! And it looks like customs/requests are available too!

I'd be interested in a request, but currently broke, and Canadian postal strikes, but just sharing this for others who might be interested!

I hope you sell lots of them!!

happy super hunter's moon 🏹🌕
#OctopathTraveler

Fan art of Z'aanta from the video game Octopath Traveler done in a chibi, or super deformed, style. He is giving a toothy, fanged smile as he draws his bow, legs positioned as if leaping upward with one knee high. A circle element in the background is roughly shaded as if to depict the moon. The illustration is cool with a graduated deep purple background.

I don’t think ppl understand the whole “who cares if nobody likes it! make content for yourself” is extremely dismissive
Bc we ARE making the content for ourselves but it feels /bad/ when people don’t engage or show interest. You can care about both at the same time

Since it's my birthday... Would it be much trouble to ask for some likes and reposts for my art? 🫣 Here's some pieces of mine! 🥰

I mostly just draw Octopath CotC fanart, but it's my favourite game, so, yeah!

I'm also the admin of a little collab project called @projectpathaction.bsky.social

A compilation of all of the 2024 Monthly Leon drawings by BLAZlNGBLADE

He is dressed in various designs to represent the 12 Jobs of Octopath Traveler (OT1) and Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent (CotC).

A half body drawing of Oskha from Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent.

It features Oskha in the Golden Palace's final layer, the Silver Fountain. He stands with a a hand extended forwards, a ring glowing red and a purple swirl creating an ominous aura is there.

There is text reading "Congrats on the implentation of Oskha!!".

The "OCTOPATH" of Champions of the Continent. Each are representing their letter that begins their name.

O - Orsazantos
C - Ceraphina
T - Tatrocha
O - Oskha
P - Pardis III
A - Auguste
T - Tytos
H - Herminia

There is text reading "Happy 4th Anniversary" and "Champions of the Continent".

A half body drawing of Leon and Elletrix from Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent.

The two are standing close together, arms around one another in a loving embrace. Both are looking into the others' eyes. The background is a soft pink sunset over the horizon of the ocean.

Here is arms/warmaster Rondo for May @projectpathaction.bsky.social! I combined warmaster and armsmaster design elements to make something both warm and defensive (and that wasn't entirely armor). He's an elite fighter for the church with mastery over various weapons, of course!

Armsmaster/warmaster Rondo holds a sword in front of him in his right hand and a pole arm behind his back in his left hand. He's talking to someone out of frame, perhaps some Knights Ardante in training.

Added alt text with full quote.

“When I see that, I worry that they might face serious trouble down the line if they don't take it more seriously.”

Hirohiko Araki addresses Al art in his latest book:
"Recently, I came across a drawing that perfectly mimicked my art style. I thought 'I don't remember drawing this' only to find out it was Al, I was shocked, this is truly evil and a tool for scammers"

In this post there is a photo of Hirohiko Araki, creator of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure next to Giorno from the series.

By Hirohiko Araki. It’s titled “Today’s World of Con Artists” and it reads: Speaking about 'societal evils, I think that as Al continues to spread throughout society, we're going to see an increasingly shady world filled with scammers exploiting it. Recently, I came across a drawing and thought, "This is something I drew, right?" I was shocked to find out it was actually created by Al. When I draw manga, I add subtle, personal elements that make the work uniquely mine. But this Al-generated piece even mimicked details like the way I draw eyelashes, so precisely that it was almost impossible to tell it apart from my work. If it were based on recent drawings, I'd know right away, "No, I didn't draw this." On the other hand, I honestly wouldn't be able to tell the difference if it were done with my art from about ten years ago, when my memory of it would be a little hazy. The more Al advances, the more this kind of thing will happen.
Art reflects the times, and manga is one example of that. Seeing this world of con artists appear in manga could very well mean that we're headed for a future world dominated by fraudsters. This type of 'evil' in today's age will undoubtedly end up impacting manga down the line.
Copyright infringement by Al is also a 'villain' that we manga artists must face. The extreme scenario is that Al-generated fakes might start being accepted as the "real thing," and even if we try to protect our work, these counterfeits are becoming so accurate and sophisticated that it's no longer a fight an individual can win. Having some kind of laws would probably be the only way to regulate this. However, because we're dealing with a world of con artists, there's also a very real possibility that laws favoring them will appear before we know it. Personally, I entrust my copyright management to Shueisha, but some manga artists are lax in managing their copyrights, leading to others using their artwork without permission or even leaking original drawings.
