Yay, low effort sketch page time for Day 8 of Bandtober! Here are some moments from the band story!

And for how the band got formed (I got lazy and didn’t write the rest asdfghjkl)

Nigira’s parents own a popular restaurant called BonTraveler. When Nigira was eleven, her parents decided it was time to put her into school, as she had been homeschooled her whole life. Nigira begged not to go, so her parents made a compromise: As long as Nigira found one performer a week to play on the new stage they had built into the restaurant, she would continue to be homeschooled.

At first it went swimmingly. Nigira asked anybody she saw, even people dining in the restaurant, and she found at least two performers a week, sometimes the same people. Her parents were very proud of her.

But as she got older, nobody really wanted to entertain the request of a fifteen-year-old girl. The number of performers dropped until only Nigira was playing every night, on the guitar she had bought and learned how to play to be like her idol, Ran.

Her parents warned her that she would have to go to school, so Nigira thought up a plan. She made a sign-up sheet and went to Haneoka Girls Academy, hoping to find some young performers for the family restaurant.

After lots of people saying no, eventually she came to Oro. Since Oro was surrounded by the group of mean girls, she didn’t want to sign up, but she finally said, “I SING!” and jotted down her name, then turned away. Her followers thought she wrote it down as a joke and wouldn’t show up . . . but Oro did.

When Nigira was rehearsing with her, for a simple guitar accompaniment, Oro started to sing, and Nigira froze as she suddenly got an idea-- to start a band!

A lot ensued after that-- Nigira tried to find members, but the only DJ she could find-- although she wanted to make a techno band-- was Shiro, who declined the offer due to her not practicing her DJing in a long time. The reason was because Shiro and Oro used to be best friends, and when Oro joined the mean girl group, she said something awful to Shiro-- which made Shiro close off everything related to their friendship.

And da-da-da-da-da-da there’s still a lot left to write . . . anyway, long story short, Oro and Shiro makes up, the band gets together and plays at BonTraveler! :D See y’all tomorrow~

Edit: I just realized both sketches of Oro have her with her eyes closed and her eyebrows slanted . . . I’m sorry Oro eep

Sorry I'm so late to this-- I was supposed to post this two days ago and the next one yesterday, but I'm going to do all three today! Yay :')

So anyway, Day 7 of Bandtober, Casuals!

Since I already posted their casuals on the individual days, I'm bringing back my ancient (okay, maybe they were from January) Scratch Vector models! They're so creepy eeeeeek (but yep-- summer casuals on the top, winter on the bottom)

Anyways, I'm dropping these here while I finish up Day 8 and then time to work on Day 9 rip-- See y'all later!

Also the heights are messed up and inaccurate cause it's just Scratch models frwffh but anyway, here's the order of height from tallest to shortest: Kona, Shiro, Oro, Nigira, Ichika!

I drew this halloween chisato and I tried to make it look like watercolor hope it looks nice!

left: kiyoko hirano (NEP2NE), right: akane ito (DARK★PORTAL)

it's coming slow, it's coming slow...! day three of bandtober is guitarists! here's a little about these two...

akane ito is the guitarist and secondary vocalist for DARK★PORTAL. similar to her older sister, asuga, she pretends to have magical powers. unlike her sister, however, akane pretends to be a vampire, though that doesn't seem to stop her from wearing silver from time to time. she also takes her gimmick a bit further than her sister, using a parasol in direct sunlight and acting out whenever she sees crosses and similar imagery. despite appearances, akane is actually rather responsible and kind, and takes care of arranging practice and showtimes, along with equipment management.

kiyoko is NEP2NE's guitarist, and the most experienced band member second only to juri, the bassist. she is restless and headstrong, and despite being fiercely independent, she is a loyal friend and ally. in the past, she was a member of a couple 'for-fun' bands, but mostly played support guitar for bands who needed the spot filled, alongside being a street performer. most of her attempts to form more cohesive bands in the past have fallen through due to her difficulties with communication and teamwork. she can come off as gruff and mean, especially due to her appearance, but she secretly looks up to her band mates, and has a good heart.
