I'm Nika, from Spain. I'm not a pro artist (yet), but this is my art account. I like to draw JJBA fanart in my free time (thinking about opening comms in a near future), and I'm also currently writing a JJBA·SBR merman AU fanfic on AO3 and Wattpad!
Here are some samples of my art. Hope you like it!

Illustration of Josuke Higashikata and Yasuho Hirose from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure part 8: Jojolion. It's a redraw of a scene from the manga, where Josuke and Yasuko are reunited again.

Illustration of Giorno Giovanna from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure part 5: Golden Wind. He has his back hair down. Giorno carries some leafs and flowers, and wears some of them as a crown. He's shirtless, and scars from a top surgery can be seen under his chest, where he has written "Proud to be!" alterning pink, white and blue with each word.

Yoshikage Kira from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable. He is being dragged to hell by hands of women. He says: "Jokes on you, I'm into this shit. In fact, I'm already horny". In a corner of the image, Reimi now has a concerned expression.

Cover of my Steel Ball Run merman AU fanfic "The Road Marked by the Waves". It shows Gyro (as a shark merman) and Johnny (as a human) holding hands underwater.

Gyro and Johnny from my AU fanfic "Side Notes". Gyro tells Johnny about himself, that he's from a big, wealthy family of Italians doctors. Johnny is shocked, connecting the dots and thinking Gyro belongs to the Mafia.

I'm not good at imitating other art styles, but I did my best to adapt my favorite Araki's illustration ever to the SBR anime style, because I'm tired of everyone talking shit about the anime design of my best boy 💢

Less than a week for the Steel Ball Run event, but between the recent release of "Borderlands 4" (my top fav videogame saga of all times... you can tell by my nickname lol) and my recent discovery of the mobile game "Love and Deepspace", I'm well entertained and time will surely fly ✨

Drawing of myself playing Borderlands 4 (selecting Vex the Siren) on my PC.

Scene from my Steel Ball Run Novelist AU fanfic "Side Notes", where Johnny and Julius (Gyro) are in a meeting. Gyro looks nervous and shocked, and says: "W-why are Ash and Leo kissing? We didn't write any of that in the novel! Right? Right!?". Johnny is next to him, just crying from laughing.

Don't get mad, but I think Jotaro prefers someone else... 😬
(from Feb 2024)

#JJBA #JJBAcomic #fanart #StoneOcean #art #nikart

Night scene. Anasui, Jotaro and Ermes are standing in the foreground, while Jolyne is in the background, with her back turned. Anasui speaks to Jotaro: "Mr. Kujo, may you please give me your blessing to marry Jolyne? I love her so much...". Jotaro replies with disapproval: "Good grief... Stop talking nonsense. I've just met you! I don't know if you are good enough for my daughter."

Then, Ermes turns to Jotaro, and asks: "What about me? Could I marry her, Mr. Kujo?". Jotaro replies with a smile on his face: "Of course! I'd be very delighted! Even though her mother and I are divorced, we'll support the both of you in everything you need". Jolyne is still in the background, but she has turned around, looking thoughful. On the other hand, Anasui looks at Jotaro and Ermes, really pissed off.

I'll be far from home this week because it's my sister's wedding and I have nothing to upload except some stuff I did in #wplace, lmao.

Screenshot from wplace showing some drawings I made:
- Gyro sprite from the game Jumps Superstars.
- The menacing JJBA onomatopoeia.
- Gyro and Johnny making out based on a drawing I made a long ago.

There are two kinds of dads: the overprotective one, and the careless one. Giorno has both of them 😅
What do you think Giorno asked permission for? (Oct 2024)

#JJBA #JJBAcomic #fanart #au #art #nikart

Scene with Giorno and Dio. Giorno is standing next to Dio, who has curlers in his hair, a face mask, and is filing his nails. Giorno asks: "Papa, can I...?". Dio interrupts him: "Shhh, not now, dear. Go ask your father. Papa is busy doing his beauty routine".

Next scene, Giorno appears with Jonathan. Jonathan looks huge and angry, taking almost all the scene. He's scolding Giorno, who looks small and worried. Behind Jonathan is some text that is partially hidden. The full text, including the hidden parts, says: "Absolutely not!!! Listen here, young man! I can not believe you thought it was a good idea. You need to understand that choices have consequences, and this is not just about what you want. It is about doing the right thing!!". And at the end, it continues with a lot of blah blah blah.

Giorno appears with Dio again, saying: "In short, father said NO". Dio replies: "I'll give you my permission, then... to whatever it is".

I'm uploading a new #GyJo fanfic!
- Side Notes -
An alternate universe where Johnny is a college writer, Gyro is a neurosurgery resident, and they both write a novel together.
Link to AO3 in the next post 👇

Cover of my Steel Ball Run AU fanfic, "Side Notes".
Top text: Not everything they wrote was fiction.
Bottom text: Side Notes. Nika the Siren. Based on the Original Work and Characters by Hirohiko Araki.
Gyro (Julius in this universe) has Johnny sitting on his lap. They're both holding a big yellow book with a red head and the letters "BL" inside, and a lot of post-it notes between its pages. They're avoiding eye contact, looking a bit embarrassed.

Araki told me (in a dream) that this scene was intended to happen in that chapter from the manga where Johnny talks about how good Gyro's coffee is for an entire page ☕💕

#JJBA #JJBAcomic #fanart #SteelBallRun #GyroZeppeli #JohnnyJoestar #GyJo #art #nikart

The first panel of three. Gyro Zeppeli from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run, looking a bit worried, says: "Johnny. Do you remember when we agreed we were better off as friends, right?"

The second panel of three. Johnny Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run is lying in bed, just underwear, looking up, and answering: "No, I absolutely do not".

The third panel of three. Back to Gyro, he's now in the process of taking off his clothes, a bit annoyed, saying: "Fuck... me neither".

Sometimes I like to revisit my old art and draw it again to see how I've improved over the years. This hot weather is the best time to redo this one! ☀️🧋
The first version looks so damn ugly now, lol.

Digital illustration of Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventures: Steel Ball Run.
Gyro and Johnny are posing for a selfie at the beach, both of them drinking a boba tea and wearing sunglasses. Gyro wears his typical hat and a white t-shirt. Johnny wears a blue cap with white stars backwards and a reddish top tank.

Draw this again! Nika the Siren. Comparison between an illustration from 2020, another illustration from 2023, and another one from 2025.
Both first illustrations show Gyro Zeppeli from Jojo's Bizarre Adventures: Steel Ball Run at the beach, drinking a boba tea, wearing his typical hat, a pair of polarized pilot sunglasses, and swimwear. He's also wearing a white t-shirt showing Garfield with a cowboy hat, and the text "When I die I may not go to heaven, I don't know if they let cowboys in".
The illustration from 2025 shows Gyro with Johnny posing for a selfie at the beach, both of them drinking a boba tea and wearing sunglasses. Gyro wears the same attire, but the print of the t-shirt is not showing. Johnny wears a blue cap with white stars backwards and a reddish top tank.

The prequel of Golden Wind, but Haruno... I mean, Giorno, has two dads (divorced, with shared custody).
This is my headcanon explanation about Giorno's transition 🏳️‍⚧️ (from Nov 2023)

#JJBA #JJBAcomic #fanart #GiornoHasTwoDads #AU #JonathanJoestar #DioBrando #GiornoGiovanna #art #nikart

First slide of two. Jonathan Joestar is hugging fondly Haruno Shiobana (Giorno Giovanna's original identity). Dio appears next to them, obviously annoyed. Jonathan says: "I'll miss you, Haruno... Have fun with papa Dio and listen to him, okay?". Haruno responds: "It's just a week, father, I'll be back soon!". Dio adds angrily: "Don't cling so much to the boy, Jojo!" He mutters: "Ugh, it's so f***ing icky..." and proceed in a normal tone again: "We're going to be stuck in traffic if you go on like this".

Second slide of two. This scene happens a week after the first one. Dio appears with Giorno, who is already with his usual hair and wearing his usual clothes from Golden Wind. They both greet Jonathan. Dio says: "Hey Jojo! Here we are! I brought you the boy back. Look how gorgeous our son is now". Giorno, with his left hand raised, starts to speak: "Good to see you, father! I had a great week! Papa let me drove his car, and I accidentally ran over someone and killed them... But don't worry! Papa took care of it. And so now, my name's Giorno, and I'm Italian". Jonathan appears in a corner, shocked and pale, with the text: *internally and externally screaming*.

Let me tell you something, a time controlling stand user is no joke ⌚
Another JJBA and The Simpsons crossover I made back in September 2024 (scene from The Simpsons S04E15)
#JJBA #JJBAComic #fanart #TheSimpsons #crossover #SteelBallRun #GyroZeppeli #JohnnyJoestar #RingoRoadagain #art #nikart

Illustration of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run. In the scene appears Gyro Zeppeli, Johnny Joestar and Ringo Roadagain. Johnny is lying on the floor, bleeding with some gunshots in his head, but he's drawn in a cartoonish way, like Gyro, who is at his side, angrily screaming his name. Ringo is looking at Gyro, saying: "Cool, I broke his brain".
