Welcome to Arin's (f)artblog

@arin-ya-blog / arin-ya-blog.tumblr.com

My dear fella, thank you very much for visiting my art page. To those who are new to my art, you may need to watch with care. Some of my artworks may have contents that are questionable, mature, immature or just utterly stupid (I will try to tag pictures). Feel free to talk to me, to ask about my One Piece OC crew 'Radical Squad', my main OC Arin, or the author of this blog, ME! I'd be happy to come in contact with you!

How to Prepare for Your First Artist Alley

I did my very first artist alley at AOD2015! I did a lot of research beforehand to help prepare, but one thing that I thought was missing from all the articles and blog posts I read was a step-by-step guide from the perspective of a beginner. So, I decided to put one together myself! I’m not entirely sure if this is the right way of preparing, but this is what I did and it worked for me.

If you’d like to know how I did it, read on!

One Piece OC week masterpost

Hey ho! After some positive answers about OC week mentioned in the earlier post, we are having a tryout next week! You can join for a day or go full week, multiple OC are allowed too, it’s purely your choice! 

Original Characters are common in every fandom, and there is a decent section of role-players, writers, and artist who enjoy them and pour their heart out in stories revolving around them. By creating such a week for One Piece fandom is a nice way to spread support to that section of it too. 

So away with the themes for the week:

  • Monday/27.07 - Family
  • Tuesday/28.07 - Truth
  • Wednesday/29.07 - Pride
  • Thursday/30.07 - Helplessness
  • Friday/31.07 - Loyalty
  • Saturday/01.08 - Breaking
  • Sunday/02.08 - Freedom

You are free to interpret those themes to your liking each day. Both drawn and written works are HIGHLY APPRECIATED no matter if it’s a sketch or short one-shot writing, the participation counts. The reason the event pops up is to give opportunity to everyone to share their work, highlight the OC that might be overseen and just spread the love around.

We’ll go under #opocweek so tracking entries would be easier. 

keeperofthegreygates: you better join me in this. >:D

I simply LOVE Arin! I have a feeling she would fit perfectly into One Piece together with the whole Radical Squad. They’re the first OC crew I’ve seen which is really unique and every character stands out. - Anonymous

COMPLETE RECONSTRUCTION OF ARIN'S FARTBLOG

Since I've been very inactive on tumblr for a veeery long time and only been reblogging senseless stuff without care (many posts should have been on my main blog, it will only be for random, personal or pointless stuff), I will "restart" this blog. This blog is directly connected to my DA account arin-ya and will also content only One Piece OC-related pics such as artworks of Arin, her crew and other creators' OCs by me and maybe others (with permission, of course) aaaand talks within the One Piece fandom. This update is also necessary due to the massive changes in Arin's story and her design. This means that the asks I have received a long time ago will be no longer considered (I'm sorry for those who hoped to receive an answer ;-; ). Also, the ask box shall remain closed till I re-open it again. I hope that it all will work out xD God bless you. Arin-ya
