holy stuff btfo

[Flatflyer]

you do realize oc has like "original" in its name, right?
Original Character. Original does not mean a screencap of your character in spiral knights, who doesn't even seem to have an original name, mind you, as the armor being worn is literally from an enemy in spiral knights called kats, as well as the hood being called a "Kat Claw Cowl."
I'm assuming peoples points by posting screencaps of things and saying its their oc is just an attempt in satire to show how you are acting.
At least put effort into your own designs and looks for your characters? Because the past 3 "ocs" have all been screenshots of game characters, and the only thing making them original is slight color changes, or defining what their age is.

I've changed stuff like the feet and also modified the hat/hands a bit, added a tail and changed the race
If you dont consider it an oc then thats your own problem, not mine.

[Trogtor]

that doesn't qualify as it original omfg

That still doesn't make it entirely your OC you silly man.

[Trogtor]

lets take my new OC (just made now completely original)

chronic (for example)



you may say chronic not original, but his colors are different from sonic and hes always high so he actually is original

[Legoboss]

Flat, theres a difference between drawing inspiration from things for your oc, which, hey, is fine! If flatflyer is an oc that lives in the starbound universe, or even uses tech inspired by starbound? Great! Go ahead! But if they actually use designs directly from the game, thats where it isn't original.

"Hey guys don't worry I changed 4 things"
How is that any better then the things people post in ycyl?

Even though these are sonic ocs, and hell, even appear to be made in some kind of creator, at least they have their own design, right? Not just something really blatantly copied. These are still bad, but at the rate of your ocs, they are still better.

whatever dude
im certain most OCs aren't created from thin air and are brought up from things people used in creative or entertainment media
the very, very, very first iteration of face was a lego character. obviously face has come a long way over the course of eight damn years that the only thing you can recognize about them is the green varsity jacket, which is there as a homage to the original version.


im not even defending flat specifically like why are y'all getting so salty over OCs. why does it effect you. like really why do you give that much of a stuff if someone's isnt as much of a got damn 1000% original never before seen masterpiece as yours

Yes, I understand inspiration. The point i'm getting across here is that this is too direct of a inspiration to the point that it becomes just copying.
And this seems to be a trend with flatflyer.

Yeah, more like chronic depression. AMIRITE

[Flatflyer]

also lol they dont exist within the starbound universe

I've developed backstories and a world for all of my ocs that isnt related to starbound/sk in any way really.
I kept the design as-is because I like it. and personally I dont think I could come up with any other design that'd be as good as it so I decided to stick with it.

that doesnt even change a thing about originality, lol

just because you wrote a short story about your next fap material and desperately tried drawing an exact copy of what it was ingame doesnt change the fact that you have no creativity

[Donnies Catch]

Flatflyer, do whatever you want. Legoboss is just the inturnet polic!!11 no fun allowed!
who cares how your character looks like, what he's from or WHATEVER
if you like something, and you want to draw it, give it a personality, and WHATEVER you do with a character, thats totally cool and all up to YOU. you can literally do anything you want as long as youre not reselling it. thats the only restriction that comes with it
hell i have a spiral knights character, too.

idk why trogtor, dj charizard (oh that name), emgiell and squartle are in here. the only thing they do is attention whore and circlejerk.

trog is just a troll, squartle is a walking stuffpost machine, and emgiell is just being a baby over "loveualized" spiral knights characters
