'It may indeed be likened to an enormous many-limbed organism of an antediluvian time - partaking of the cephalopod in shape - lying lifeless, and covered with a thin green cloth, which hides its substance, while revealing its contour.'

I love this thread! TY! We have quite a few OCs but I’ll just stick to 2 🥰 This is Cephi the Cephalopod (they/them), & Sassy Squirrel (she/her).

Cephi is non-binary, & a spoonie.

Sassy is Cephi’s bestie. Extra outgoing to mask her social anxiety.

Both are pretty cheeky 😆

I am Sammi, 1 half of the artist duo behind this account (the other half is my bestie Annie) 🥰

We draw mostly our OCs, but also a bit of fanart too when we feel like it. This octopus is our first OC, Cephi the Cephalopod. Plus some other pieces I want to share ☺️

Thanks for the art share! ☺️ We are Sammi & Annie - best friends, artists, and quirky. We love drawing our different OCs, like this Cephalopod named Cephi, and also we splash in fanart too ☺️

Until the end of the 19th century, scientists believed life couldn't exist below 300 fathoms. Then one pioneering expedition found strange and wondrous creatures in the deep. Here they are illustrated, the world's first encyclopedia of deep-sea cephalopods https://t.co/TDXn0DSzIO

this big titty goth cephalopod gf doesn’t have a name (yet?), but honestly she only exists because i thought a long boob would be fun to design around and it let me use one of my favorite design tropes: faux humanoid secondary sex characteristics.
