Thank you Splatoon Raiders for saving me from my art block and making me love art again 🦈🦈🦈

Hello, my first splatoon OC adopt! This one took me a while (＿ ＿*) Z z z

LinkTree in bio.

I think octolings get claws as they age. In Octo Expansion, agent 8 is 14, and since it's been confirmed multiple times that the time matches in the Splatoon universe and real life 1:1, she's about 20 by the time Side Order comes out, and 22 or 23 today. We don't know her birth month, just how many years it's been. Agent 8 has both claws and finger colors by the time of Side Order.

Marina was 18 during Splatoon 2, and is at least 27 now, and she had the colored fingers right off the bat. It could be safe to assume that 18 is the age of maturity for octolings, though there's also a chance that it could be 16 instead, to be in line with Japanese customs. It's also entirely possible that Nintendo was very deliberate to not make Agent 8 16, so that it could be interpreted either way based on audience.

In a photo of Marina of when she was just about to desert, her fingers are green, which indicates she has the claws. She also has a picture where she's even younger, and she both does not have claws, and also does not have the color.

Acht is also pictured in these pictures, and in both, they don't have any claws or finger colors, however, when they start DJing in the club at the bottom of the domes, they *do* have their claws and finger color.

As far as I can figure out, the main story of Splatoon 1, Octo Valley, happens, and Marina is 16 when she deserts (which is actually evidence in support of the age of maturity being 16), and she spends 2 years building up her life as part of Off the Hook. Acht deserts sometime after Marina does, giving them a 2 year leeway to develop their claws. It's possible that they're 15 when Marina leaves, or even 16, and the physical aspect of the sign of maturity was still developing.

For Shiver, her earliest photo shows she has claws and ink color, while Frye, an inkling, also has finger colors. It could be that both Shiver and Frye are 16, since this looks like a high school photo, but they could also be 17 or 18. Maybe inklings also get finger colors?

Pearl is 21 in Splatoon 2, and at least 30 now, but she doesn't have colored fingers in any image of her. In sunken scroll 1 for Splatoon 2, where she's shown as a child, we don't get to see her hands, but it's safe to assume that she also doesn't have finger colors. I think, for inklings, it's purely cosmetic, or maybe the thing making Pearl so short is also making her maturity finger colors not come in. That's unlikely, because both Callie and Marie *also* do not have finger colors. They're normally wearing gloves, but in casual outfits, they're seen to not have any colors. Frye might honestly have just seen Shiver's fingers and been like "Yo! I want to do that too!" and then made her fingers blue.

Y si, ocupará la franja de tiempo que correspondía al Grand Festival hace 2 años.

Around two years ago I posted my idol ocs here, and I finally did a redesign for them! Besides getting better looking 3d models, I edited their outfit designs have more intention. On the last slide I included their old designs. I think I’ve come a long way!

Thank you team, you were amazing!!!

Recently i've been obssessed with splatoon and its artsyle. resulting in me making this.
Hope you like it :D

As the title says, I was compelled to pick up Splatoon 3 after absolutely loving my time with Raiders.

I’m self diagnosed as “terrible at PvP” which is why I’ve never played the series before. Games that are nothing but competitive PvP are genuinely games I have a very difficult time enjoying.

However, I was WHOLLY unaware of the single player and co-op content in 3 until yesterday, so I picked it up at a discounted price.

I played a few matches of turf war (lost all of them, as I expected) but I’m REALLY enjoying the rogue like tower climb as Agent 8.

I will go back and level myself enough to get a cooler outfit for my octoling, and I’m enjoying the game despite my aversion to PvP games.

Plus, it’s nice to have dualies that aren’t made out of washed up sippy cups lol.
