Drawn in the Sketchog style, Derya the Squid, with sparkles in her eyes, is excitedly preparing to eat chocolate cake for her birthday.

Happy birthday to my bean, Derya the Squid! 🎉🎉

Today marks the sixth anniversary of her creation! To celebrate, please feel free to ask any questions you have about her. You might even get your question answered in the Sketchog style! 👀

Derya the Squid, standing upright wearing an asymmetrical black tube top with a thinner strap on her right shoulder and a triangular cut under the same side of her chest, a dark blue scrunchie around her back tentacles, gold sunglasses with pink lenses, light cream fingerless gloves with dark blue trim, light purple baggy pants with a coral pattern on the right leg, and dark blue sports shoes. Next to Derya is her Extreme Gear board, the Aqua Vortex, which features a dark blue, squid-inspired design and a sleek, streamlined metal frame. Rubberized grips line both sides to provide control, and a light cream top panel with two dark blue lines that follow the board's shape. Neon green lights add a high-tech touch, and metal plates at the front and back reinforce the board's structure and durability.

To celebrate the early release of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, I created a Riders outfit and an Extreme Gear board for Derya.

Derya the Squid, standing upright with her back tentacles down to show what her dress looks like, it's a long dark blue dress with a ruffled strap on her right shoulder, a white belt around her waist, dark blue and white hair bands around each of her two front tentacles, a necklace with an orange shell, a bracelet in each hand with small dark blue and white pearls, and dark blue low heels.

I've been planning to make some different outfits for Derya to wear, and I've just finished designing a dress for her, does she look good? 👀

A recent post by @flowerqliphoth.bsky.social inspired me to quickly create a base for Derya, excellent for later creating different outfits for her.
