The gang's all here!

I've been working on this group art for Caelan's party since December last year. Hopefully 2025 will be a good year for more character-driven art!

#art #oc #ocart #ocsky #mirrorsamuraiart

Art of a group of four fantasy adventurer OCs - the swordfighter Caelan, the mage Nerissa, the bard-archer Cypris and the knight Aladria. There is also a tiny fairy, Felice, who floats next to Caelan.

Caelan is at the far left of a grassy field, waving for the rest of his party to follow him. Nerissa excitedly runs to the front, while Cypris is walking slowly and Aladria has already stopped.

Dr. Eggman has yet to pay the Chaotix for their services back in Sonic Heroes.

Unfortunately for him, Vector still hasn't forgotten.

Oh sweet, it's not happening anymore!

But I'll make sure to build more playlists just in case it does.

Inspired by Day 4 of #stormythoc_tober2025: Fave Duo!

It had to be Roan and Senne. The gravity brothers, the himbo and the nerd. I love them so much.

#art #oc #ocsky #oc_tober2025 #mirrorsamuraiart

Artwork of two OCs, Roan Macroson (left) and his little brother Senne (right), holding hands and looking at each other determined. Roan is a muscular young man (roughly 18) with lilac hair and a prosthetic hand, while Senne is a skinny pre-teen boy (12) with sandy blond hair and hearing aids. Both are wearing the same sci-fi uniform with angular pauldrons.

So after well over a year of having it in my backlog, I finally watched Frieren!

I'm only two episodes in but I love it so much that I just had to draw fanart.
#art #frieren #mirrorsamuraiart

Fanart of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, depicting the titular elf mage Frieren. She is floating in a sunset sky, surrounded by a whirlwind of blue-moon weed flower petals.

This fanart was heavily inspired by Episode 2 of the anime.

I've had this human design of Sonic around for years now, and I figured it was finally time to give him a redesign!

#art #sonic #sonicthehedgehog #mirrorsamuraiart

Art of Sonic the Hedgehog interpreted as a human design (gijinka). He is a teenager with blue hair, freckles and an outfit suited for running, with shorts, leggings and running shoes that resemble the classic red shoes.

For this new design, I gave him a sleeveless open jacket with a white shirt beneath it.

Inspired by Day 1 of #stormythoc_tober2025: Redesign an old OC!

Wanted to finally give a new design to Floren Larkspur! A character I've always wanted to give a redraw but never really did.

#art #oc #oc_tober2025 #mirrorsamuraiart

Artwork of an OC, Floren Larkspur. He is an elven man with reddish-brown hair and glasses. He wears a bare-shouldered, scholarly outfit that is primarily made of leaves, and is seen adjusting his glasses.

On the top left is Floren's old art (from 2022? I think?), which I included for a handy little comparison. Notably, he didn't have glasses back then.

Another version of Floren's new art, with an orange outfit instead of green. I made this as an experiment because I didn't want all of my Leaf Legion characters to be wearing green leaves. (also we're deep into autumn now so it fits in that regard)

Inspired by Day 2 of #stormythoc_tober2025: Coffee Shop AU!

Thought this'd be fun to do with Casp and Fran. They're from a school-based story, stands to reason they'd have a part-time job in a cafe.

#art #oc #oc_tober2025 #mirrorsamuraiart

Art of two OCs, Caspian and Francesca, working at a coffee shop. Both are sixteen years old - Casp is the boy on the left, and Fran is the girl on the right. Casp is handing a coffee out with a wink, while Fran is writing down another customer's order on a notepad.

Inspired by Day 5 of #stormythoc_tober2025: At Sunset!

Went with my DnD character Royce for this one. I dunno, sunset just fit his vibes.

#art #oc #ocsky #oc_tober2025 #mirrorsamuraiart

Artwork of my DnD character Royce Goldfield (human-aasimar, ranger). He is a teenage boy with small angel wings and fantasy adventurer clothes. He is seen sitting on the edge of a cliff, with his back to the camera, looking out to see the sunset over the sea.

…and Nintendo Music requires iOS 16.0 or later, are you freaking kidding me.

I think I hate technology.

Mirror @themirrorsamurai.bsky.social · 1d

This alone might be what gets me to download Nintendo Music.

Websites shouldn't force you on one track that's not for everyone, dangit!

Mirror @themirrorsamurai.bsky.social · 1d

Has anyone else noticed that YouTube on mobile forces you on a random playlist if you select any music-only video?

Because that's been happening to me since yesterday. And I hate it.

At least it never happens on PC…

Good :) because if it can't exist without proper pay and permissions it shouldn't exist

The Verge @theverge.com · May 26

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.
