Can't believe I never thought to share this one: Rivera's apartment bedroom, before she moved into a larger house. (Drawn about April 14th, 2021) I'd love to do more of these, they make great practice and are actually fantastic for character building. Maybe another for the house she lives in after her apartment? (Also, this was 100% inspired by the drawing Heather did of Chikitita's apartment.)

Finally sitting down and making a bio for Rivera. She has an official Nanotrasen Crew Record as well. This is more personal. Note: Please consider pretty much everything here OOC knowledge unless it's gained IC. The Basics: Full Name: Rivera Janice Clair Kirkland Nicknames/Alias: Riv, Miss Kirkland Gender: Trans Woman (she/her) Orientation: Lesbian Age / D.O.B: 42 years old. August 1st, 2523 Place Of Birth: The NXV Eclipse (considered by many to be the predecessor to the NXV Luna) Species: Human Blood Type: AB+ Alignment: Neutral Good Affiliation: Nanotrasen Employee. Initially hired as a Geneticist. Religious Beliefs: Agnostic Personality: Rivera has a calm and cool demeanor, and many would consider her level-headed and rational. She has a fair level of confidence about the way she carries herself, and her actions often border on being outright smug. It's hard to make her genuinely angry or upset. When she is, she usually tries to hide it, as she hates the thought of being vulnerable. Despite her overall personality, Rivera has a tendency to be more reckless when she isn't feeling well, and secretly has a low self-image. She will often throw herself into danger with little to no regard for her own self-preservation or safety. She cares for others around her much more than herself, and may come off as hypocritical when criticizing someone for doing something she wouldn't think twice about doing herself. Detailed Information: Appearance: Character Voice: Medical Record: Character Biography: Family: History: Relationships: Personal: Factions: Images: Other Info: tbd, uhhhh her favorite alcoholic drink is a daiquiri but non-alcoholic she will drink most warm drinks like tea, coffee and hot chocolate. i will add more here later

Posted this one a bit ago on the pride thread I had started, but for the sake of keeping space art I'm proud of together, I'll go ahead and smack it here too!

Oh yeah, the earliest art I have is from September 2018, and I was learning a lot before that, too. After scouring through discord I think the first time I ever played was July 2018? And thanks! It was fun doing a ton of chatting tonight, even if things got hectic enough to make just having a steady conversation difficult.

So, hi! I avoided making one of these for a while since I didn't think anyone would even know who I was, but at this point I hang around so often I feel like one of these things is finally warranted. I still have plenty to learn about this game and there's still several moments where I feel like I don't know what I'm doing, but I'm glad to be a part of a community who seems overall receptive to teaching and helping! My name's Skyler, most people just call me Skye though. My most frequent character at the moment is Rivera Kirkland, but I also play many others like Tidal Kirkland, Luke Rosensteel, Lace Masuno, Sybil Swords and C.I.T.R.U.S.. I mainly play genetics, but I try to do an actual decent job of it; I've heard a lot of horror stories unfortunately. I also draw a lot. You may or may not have seen my art around, even before I became super active again because Chikitita's player is one of my best friends so I draw Chiki a lot. I hear my art gets around, apparently? Anyway, it's fun to be back! Thanks for havin' me here in paradise. :rivera_thumbsup:

I love them so much ; __ ;

Been a bit, but here's an update! This is just a doodle I got a little carried away with: Rivera and Angel shared a really sweet moment alone in an escape pod. (The text is, of course, to show the moment I was drawing in specific ; __ ; my heart)

YOOO this is sick!! I love how you made a narrative story with it, thanks for sharing! :D

Solid guide, thanks for sharing! Always looking to up my genetics game. I've been familiar with + trying out Nokko's method for a while now, but I wasn't aware of the IV bags, so that's a game changer for sure.

This is super great :D :D I love Chiki, thanks for sharing!! Cheesy, but true! Thanks for the kind words :']

That makes me super happy to hear!! I just hope it can mean something to folks! (And hell yeah, med rep :D)

thanks for showing them here i

Looks like the librarian is hosting a photoshoot in the library to create a scrapbook for Pride Month! Stop by if you'd like to have your photo taken for Nanotrasen's UNOFFICIAL Pride Scrapbook, or if you'd simply like to watch and wait for the inevitable chaos once the station falls apart. I'm a bit late, but in honor of pride month: I thought it'd be nice to make a place where everyone can show off their characters for Pride! The theme is Pride, so preferably, share your characters celebrating themselves in some way! Allies are welcome, just be respectful please. :> The little blurb at the top is just for fun, you don't have to take it seriously. Feel free to tell us about your character though! If posting art that isn't done by yourself, please give a source to the artist! Note: I'm not actually compiling these photos or anything. Your characters can roll along with it if you'd like, but out of character, I (Skye) am not personally compiling them. Overall, please be kind and positive! So without further ado, let's show our characters with Pride!! I'll start off by sharing one of my own characters, Rivera Kirkland. :D Since she's a geneticist and constantly looking for mutations, I had her hold up the lesbian flag with telekinesis, haha. The other flags are the polyamory flag (bandana), the trans flag (bracelet), and the flag she's holding is an idea I got from some pride art @SlimeBird did with Chikitita: the Nanotrasen Corporate Pride flag. If anyone else has Pride-related character art to show, I'd love to see it! :D

That pride art is lovely!! :D

Another post, this time focusing a bunch on my character Tidal! Here's her takin' a power nap on a bus with her sister Lace. Here's a small thing I had done of her hiding in Angel's ( @punkalope's character) absolute mass of hair. Tide's not usually the shy type, but they are still a teenager and get intimidated easily. Aaaand one more, full of a bunch of doodles! This gives a brief look into their backstory, since Tidal's childhood was... a bit of an odd case! They were raised by a (now deceased) diona, and he's the reason she was inspired to try and learn medical at such a young age. (In character, I like to believe her connection to Idunn helps her get a foot in the door to achieving this so early on.)

Thank you all for the kind words about my art ahhhh! I'm a bit shy so I haven't been responding directly to them all, but just know that each of them means the world to me ; ___ ; Today I thought I'd post something other than humans for once, lol. Here's one of my less played characters: Luke Rosensteel! He's a random vulpkanin I had been assigned for the animal clinic mob spawner, and I grew very attached to him, so I made him an actual player character for future shifts. He had miners in and out since he was so close to the base, and was eventually brought on board and given shaft miner permissions and welcomed by the mining crew. He took his two pet shrimp with him and now he has taken a particular interest in shaft mining as a job. The shrimp are named Scapi (pink, and no that's not a typo) and Gallagher (blue). He loves them very much.

God damn, kudos to @MrSynnester for an amazing round where Idunn (and eventually Rivera) were being haunted by a demonic voice! I sorta interpreted it as a ghostly Shesi hanging around Rivera being all scary and sinister. Mostly just a doodle, but hell if I wasn't going to draw at least something after all that. Also... awkwardly-drawn hands aside, god. I'm really pleased with how I made the second Rivera look like a puffed up cat. It wasn't completely intentional but damn is it fitting.

Today I bring forth... character IDs! Arranged in the order I finished them in, with Rivera being the first (April 26th) and Lace being the most recent (today, May 30th). Made this small little template myself for some of my characters. Nothing fancy, but I tried to emulate the in-game sprite itself for it, and I'm generally pretty pleased with how it looks. (Side note: I like to imagine certain things like blood type are on the back. Maybe I'll design a template for the backside at some point...?)

Your art is so so good Tea it's been so good to see your improvement over time

I'll start off strong with my biggest SS13 piece to date: a commission from a friend of mine as a gift for @SlimeBird! Finished about mid-December, 2020. (I already feel like I've improved a ton since this.) Here's some art I've done of one of my characters, Rivera Kirkland, as a geneticist: Drawn in April 2021. And here's some art I ended up drawing after my first round of chef in ages, playing as Sybil Swords, featuring @angelictactics's Idunn. Drawn in May 2021.

Hi! Some of my friends have been poking me for a while to make an art thread, soooo I'm finally doing that. I have a good handful of SS13 art I'll try to upload in batches and stuff, things will probably be out of order for a while! (i'll edit this first post to look nicer later, since i wanna have a cute little landing drawing of sorts for it)

Rivera now also has a more personal Character Biography for things that may be considered more personal as well as OOC knowledge. The relationships section that was here previously has been moved.
