Artfight 2024, week 5 [FINAL WEEK]

Aug. 8, 2024

Oops this was supposed to go up during the weekend but I was actually away at the time and got busy since. Well I'm awake at 6am right now so what better time to go through these, right? It's a big batch, too!

Let's go:

Leona whipping her swords around.

This one was really fun to work on; I'm really happy with the swords, but I wish the upper body had more dynamism to it. The pose I used doesn't convey it enough in my opinion.

That said, it definitely was one of my most popular pieces this year!

Deborah posing whimsically

Such a cute creature. I decided to maximize the floof on that one, especially on the markings. Funnily enough, that's how I used to draw furries 15 years ago.

Arthur handing out mail to the viewer.

Arthur's setting is very similar to Cosmic Void: Genesis, so I was instantly hooked and had to draw him. Also he's a red panda so you know. Bit of bias and all.

Dearly Beloved looking at the viewer with a glowing morning star raised and ready to strike.

You can tell this was the last piece of the day haha, I've definitely rushed it. Still, I'm happy with some of the effects. If I had more time, I think I would have gone for a more dramatic angle.

Candy Corn looming over the viewer. The moon shines red in the background.

Speaking of dramatic angles, here's one that worked a lot better! I think I made it a bit too dark to see that he's holding his cape, but the contrast makes it work.

Klove looking professional.

It's not often you see pink dragonborns. This one even has an exotic breath weapon (lye)! How fun!

I wanted to go for a very professional look for this, and I think I got it.

Phemus lounging on a throne.

Another fun piece for Aseuki! As usual, the gold trims are the highlight of this. I wonder if I did make it too dark, though; on most screens it looks fine to me but my main monitor has very deep blacks so it's hard to make out the details on it...

Mir Falspar holding a coffee cup.

This man needs a break. I hope he can rest some more soon.

Oliver letting out a loud "A"

A!

A fun little piece to showcase Oliver's power! Also I kept thinking that he was a bat for a while but no he's a bnnuy..... oops

Nini's fursona doing a little dance

Speaking of bunny.... well no this is a dog, actually. At this rate I'm gonna have a mùy bunny lover license revoked!!!

IVie leaning against a doorframe, waiting.

This piece was a nice change of pace. Nothing crazy, just a simple pose on a simple background. That right hand did give me a lot of trouble though.

BOEING taking a selfie above the clouds

And finally, an Aeromorph for my final piece! I wanted to draw one this year and this was the cutest one I would find. I also wanted to emulate the pilot selfie thing, so this was a lot of fun.

That said, the better I get at drawing clouds, the more I worry that people might think I'm using photo backgrounds..... I can assure you that these are all painted! I love painting clouds! Blame Bob Ross!

Well anyway.

This concludes this year's Art Fight!

There will be a lot less art for a little while as I am now starting a new project; a Solitaire roguelike game! I will make a longer post about it but in the meantime, you can catch me on twitch if you want to follow along! 

Alright, that's it for real now! Bye!
