Character design for a project called Solace and Horizon. This is Daymocker, she’s a biologically engineered spy with the ability to mimic anyone (down to their voice, appearance, mannerisms,ect.) as well as manipulate shadows to her whim.

You know that one post about how in BOTW speedruns, Link wakes up in a blind rage and defeats Ganon without knowing anything? Yeah.
Crack idea, but we made it sad. Link defeats Ganon in his underwear in PTSD blackout mode:
K Tanaka!!! Just my own iteration of their design throughout both seasons. They have so many looks >:00
They’re so intense and are trying so hard to do the right thing. “You’re trying to hold the world, they’re just trying to hold onto you” SOBS
I think they straightened and dyed their hair a whole bunch during their emo phase, but it’s naturally this wavy chestnut brown. Got a side shave going at the end of season one and an undercut in season two.
Today on: What new fandom will Laika post next? I give you, Midna. One of my all time favorite Legend of Zelda characters ngl
The Wizarding World did not stop existing after The Boy Who Lived. The prologue of the books say as such. Encouraging and confirming that wizarding life went on after the series. In fact, the world was much bigger than just Harry Potter and went on much longer. Though its world building was full of whimsy, much was left undiscovered or in the margins.
A Wizard’s Hearthstone will be my additions, extrapolations, and edits to the magical world of the Harry Potter universe set in the 21st Century.
Starting first, with the legendary school itself.
🍁Hogwarts🍁
Hogwarts is a wild, magical place of learning. Filled to the brim with adventure and history. The old stomping grounds of many a great wizard and a place of wizarding history both old and new. However, not all were too pleased about the students fighting against the dark wizard terrorist group and their horrifying resurrected leader. Nor the subsequent deaths of numerous of its student body and staff.
It’s safe to say that such a thing would leave many educators and parents in an outrage after the smoke had cleared. For all of Hogwarts defenses, its once prestigious lessons were criticized and its magical armor torn asunder. Big changes were quickly made to respond to the outraged call of the wizarding people en masse.
Magical defenses were reenchanted and purged of any holes it its spell work. Secret passageways discovered and marked. Students and staff are now required to keep an identification pendant keyed to their magical signature to be allowed entrance. Among many other new and developing defenses.
The Forbidden Forest is now monitored by a new group of magizology rangers. Who provide safety, education, and preservation of the magical creatures that stalk the ancient woods. Students are no longer brought there for a fear mongering detention, but to instead lead by the Rangers to keep the forest cleaned up from trash and to understand the incredible importance of an ecosystem working together in tandem.
The Thestrals who pull the carriages are kept in a sturdy barn and wide open pastures. Monitored by a ranger and occasionally the Care of Magical Creatures Professor to ensure both their safety and others.
However, perhaps the biggest change was done to how the education was carried out. With Hogwarts being criticized, so was its tradition. No longer are students organized into their houses based on their 12 year old personality, it is now decided based on learning style and values. Think of them like learning programs where students can thrive and find like-minded individuals. There are other factors that decide your house such as learning style, level of preliminary education, learning pace, ect.
Every student gets the same amount of care, and a lot of the classes look similar due to the professors, but the way things are taught are catered to what program/house they’re in.
Students in need of an even more personalized education program will also have accommodations organized with the head of house to meet their needs. Parents will be informed and can be involved if necessary. (Extremely special situations will also include the Headmaster/Headmistress)
There is also the ability to transfer houses if the need arises. A discussion between the Head of Houses, Student, and Parent is arranged to provide the best understanding and support for the student.
Houses are still decide by The Sorting Hat, but its sentient nature has allowed for an explanation to it of the changed curriculum. It now provides a quick test for the students that allows it to understand where they would best thrive. It does still take into account personality, but it’s less of a priority now than in years past.
…More to come about the individual changes to the houses!
THESE DESIGNS ARE SO GOOOD!! Oh my WORD! Nana??? Lucinda???? HelLO
Pure gold 👏🏾
Simple Brainrot wasn't enough no no, My brain had to convince me to plan seasonal outfits for this subpar series I never actually finished
(Thank you to @catzgam3rz for pushing me to post this and yelling at me whenever I showed you the finished product :p)
Versions with just the outfits (Like the second Aphmau) Under the cut!
My beloved defector 💕
The anger issues this guy can carry is unfathomable
An OC from a shared story called Solace & Horizon with @laika-orbit. She writes him.
Just some guy tbh. He ends up being a defector from the totalitarian, hostile army of his kingdom and gets involved in a revolution tho
[Laika-Orbit] : This is Laika to ground control. Come in ground control.

Hello, ground control! You may call me Laika 💫
To say a little bit about me I have a great love for stars, and a little dog that had a one way trip to join them. Thus my name sake ⭐️
I am a multi-fandom artist with interests from all over the globe! Legend of Zelda, Splatoon, and Monster High being easier to spot in the sky. Alongside more obscure interests that you’ll need a telescope for, like Aphmau, In Stars and Time, and Misfits & Magic.
All of this and more can be found on my little space station! Feel free to join me on my orbit around earth, I’d love the company ✨

[Laika-Orbit] : Roger, over.

Oh my goodness! Oh I love the way this artist drew Hilda, it has such visceral vibes of a woman ready to watch it all burn for her goals. The weariness, the grit. You can really tell the craft put into this, and it’s utterly gorgeous 💕
This comic took an unholy amount of effort, but I'm glad I ended up making it!
I've always been fascinated by Hilda and Ravio's story, and I've always felt their story was never fully resolved.
I debated whether or not to end the comic on a sad note, but this was my personal take and feelings on their ending. It felt so triumphant... but also slightly bitter.
*I've worked extremely hard on this (even as just an amateur artist/hobbyist), so please don't repost without permission!
Hope you enjoy! 💜
(Bonus: deleted scene)
Loveee the outfits for Monster Fest, so I just had to do my own take on them. The ghouls are all my own design, so that’s why they’re not completely accurate XP
I finished this Aphmau dtiys over on Instagram a month or so ago, and never posted it (don’t want to mess with that AI scraping nonsense). I’m really proud of it though, so I thought I’d share it here.
Go check @quinnsquid on Instagram to see the original! They have a tumblr too so I thought I’d @ them here too ha ha
Can’t wait for Mystreet’s finale season!! I hope mcd gets some love too, it meant so much to me as a kid <3
