Oh Right. I used to have an OC.
🕑 Added 2023-07-06 00:35:14 +0000 UTCSome old terrible looking ‘archive’ stuff that, frankly I’ve had sitting as a draft post for months.
I’m very hesitant to repost these on account of how old & bad they are, but they all might be made slightly more relevant soon-ish (I might take this down though too because I hate how crap some of these are).
If you‘ve joined since then, or (justifiably) forget, this was the OC I used to have in the mid-aughts. Melanie’s her name, & the non-round, non-fat pic drawing itself was posted on dA 18 & a half years ago. With the rest not being from much later than that period of time. God, I sucked so bad. Horrific presentation.
Canonically she was supposed to be 19 or 20 at the time. Which would put her in the back half of her thirties now…
Anyway, watch this space…

Well when I said I was going to bring back an OC… And I only really officially ever had the one OC…? But good guess!
BNevis
Thank you! I’m glad to hear some of these stood out to folks!
BNevis
Thanks but I don’t think it’s unfair & I think Melanie’s fine. My issues aren’t with her as a character (although I think she was maybe a little one-dimensional), but more the quality of the art.
BNevis
Thanks! I was proud of it at the time, & out of all of these, it’s the one I have the least issue with. I just feel like my art’s come a long way, so I feel weird posting ancient art.
BNevis
Well hopefully you two can catch up soon
BNevis
Don’t do that. Why would you do that? Never do that.
BNevis
She is return-ed!
BNevis
Hope you like the update!
BNevis
Possibly…
BNevis
Thank you! Glad! Mostly, as far as archive posts, a lot of what’s on the docket is old stories which I’m going through & refining a little (original versions still on dA, proofread & updated ones here, both publicly available).
BNevis
Thanks! I’m glad you liked them & hope you enjoy the update

Please tell me this means you’ll be bringing her back!

I remember really loving both the berry and high-flying piece of Mel back when I stumbled on your page years ago. Looking forward to whatever her revival turns out to be!

For your daily dose of "Jesus, am I that old?", I was a toddler when you first posted Melanie, and am now old enough to be paying $3 a month for your patreon

Aw I miss Mel

Hey now, I quite liked these! In fact, the three-part sequence is *still* good by today's standards.

It makes me sad to hear your judge your older work so unfairly. Melanie was a personal favorite back in the day. She was pretty technically advanced, particularly given what existed at that time.

Oh god, I remember these. I used to love these. The doorway and the blueberry one especially.

I was hoping this was where things were going…
