OC Shoutouts

References: Original skin by *NishithV, modified/coded by `CypherVisor
New journal skin and code modified by =CanineHybrid


I thought this was the neatest idea, and I haven't done a meme in awhile. Gives me a chance to be a little inspired by you guys.
I stoled dis frum la ~Pitafish :meow:

Rules:
1. For each of the first 10 people to comment to this journal, I will feature one of their OCs. I'll even tell you what I like about the OC.
2. If you comment, you have to do the same in your journal, putting the tagger (aka me) on in the first slot. The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone and get feedback about your characters!
3. I highly would prefer if you have a variety of characters for me to choose from, makes it more fun that way
4. If you want to comment on the journal but not be counted for the OC promotion, then please let me know to skip over you!


Check out these Original Characters!


1. :iconpitafish: ~Pitafish

This is Xiren, a character for the group "Organization Infinitus" (an Organization 13 roleplay from the Kingdom Hearts series). I thought this character's powers were most amusing- she uses frogs and other amphibians to attack opponents XD She's also from the Princess and the Frog world which I thought was unique, and the fact that I finally got to meet pitafish in person when I went down to visit Lousiana for *NightTwilightWolf and ~MajinFido0's wedding last weekend... so it seemed extra appropriate. And the powers she gets from her berserk form are cool- poison dart frog where her skin becomes toxic and she can climb on walls. Hell yeah, she makes frog powers cool! Kinda reminds me of the Power Rangers movie when the black ranger is all upset for getting stuck with the frog animal guide when everyone else gets cool shit like wolf, gorilla, falcon, etc.


2. :icondemitheawesome: =DemiTheAwesome

I really like this character, but I think mostly because I'm a sucker for shades of gray ;p (as long as there's not 50 of them!) I especially love those big purple eyes. The markings are very complementary with one another and very pleasing to look at. I've always been more of a fan of natural-colored characters and this has just the right blend of it. Overall awesome!


3.:icontaintedtamer: *TaintedTamer

TaintedTamer has SO MANY CHARACTERS, thus making this an extremely hard decision. I almost picked Firstgear (a Transformers character) because his color scheme and design was so cool, but I thought you guys would appreciate something a little more unique that stood out to me the first time I strolled through the gallery. This is Holz who is a wood scorpion for the world of Planet Meddus. ~peanutchan came up with the concept of these bug people and their designs are really cool and creative! I really like his tail, almost reminds me of a xenomorph which I love


4.:iconkiraloup: *KiraLoup

Okay, this one was an obvious choice for a feature. I already liked the character a lot since *KikoJaharo used one of my canine blanks to create a fursuit of Ray, which turned out totally awesome! Ray's kind of a badass rebel guy, down on his luck. I decided to learn a little more about the character so I read all the current pages of the comic he is featured in... which is about zombies :p If you're interested in giving it a read, check it out here: [link]


5.:icontenakinn: ~Tenakinn

I was instantly drawn to these characters out of all the original and creative pony OCs that Tenakinn has everywhere in their gallery. These guys are just so darn cute! Their names are Izzy Pop and Fizzy Pop, and they're siblings. But if that wasn't cute enough, they also run a juice bar together! How perfect is that?? I really like their designs because it's so bright and happy, but totally works for a juice bar setting and their designs really work together. I'm a sucker for the sibling pairs because of my brother and I's OC ponies :3


6. :iconntc7: ~NTC7

It's Nicolai the wagon! XDD That's "wolf-dragon" in fact. He's more primarily a wolf with a shapeshifting ability. Draconic features begin appearing depending on what mood or emotional state he is in and can protect him like armor with scales and spikes, even change color. I really want to see more art of him *hint hint* And more art on DA *hiiiiiint*


7. :icondachief07: ~DaChief07

This is Kayshe! There's only this one drawing of him and it's rather old, but among all the other creatures in the gallery, this one really stood out to me. Such a great level of detail in all those scales! Some sort of mutant turtle dragon best I can tell, I really like the patterns on the arms. He looks like someone you wouldn't want to mess with. By the way, the most impressive thing in her gallery is her Transformers cosplay of Blitzwing and you should totally check it out. [link]


8. :iconluxiotheechidna: ~LuxiotheEchidna

This is Ephanial, a dracomorph and the last of his species. He's a humanoid but blessed (or cursed, your choice) with the power of the elder dragons. He definitely got a dark past but there seems potential in his future. What blows me away though is the sheer detail of this armor- I mean LOOK AT IT. That outfit is insane yet it really all works together. It's a stunning piece and definitely unique.


9. :icon19646: ~19646

This is Rose Rhyme, a pony with a little bit of an attitude who tends to lecture or correct others. When she does so, she likes to make her point in rhymes. When she gets her cutie mark, it will be of a rose and a scroll. She seems like a smart pony but still needs to learn the magic of friendship, lol ;p I like her big, unkempt hair with the frizzy ends.


10.:iconjazzerdawg: *JAZZERDAWG

Z-Aereo is this guy's name, he's a white wolf with some really interesting markings. I really like the blue/white color scheme with the little black toes. Really cute! This is actually a combination of two characters- a male and female spirit wolf- and Jazzer is working on a storyline that could be turned into an anime. They're looking for artists help to bring that vision to life so feel free to ask about the series.




That's all for this batch! I may do this again in the future, no doubt there's a ton more characters out there that deserve some awesome featuring. Thanks for your participation and interest :3
