artfight 26’ - dump

Instructions

wow i did artfight this year... fun! chill season, i maintained a high ratio (68) -- 1. attack on @/randomizxdUsxr made this the day i got back from nationals and camp, its fine i kind of like the shading 2. attack on @/Noxeauu also fine, i lowk forgot how to draw cats 3. attack on @/xenyca ( @WarriorZofFire ) mmm i just dont like the rendering, it drives me nutssss i dont think this is my best work at all 4. attack on @/wannabewyvern cute doggy! also dont really like the art here 5. attack on @/centiracc egh its fineee? not a lot of visual interest going on though,,, 6. attack on @/scruffshipping also just fine, but very uninteresting to me, it took me a while to hit my stride 7. attack on @/Pythus ( @CoABrAzz ) this attack is when i actually felt myself experimenting a bit instead of retreating to ol reliable, i like it ALOT! 8. attack on @/bumbyy ( @Blizzy2 ) like this one too, i think the rendering is servicable and the colors are pretty and i love ace attorney! MILES EDGEWORTH 9. attack on @/Moonbowtasticzz ( @katsudon- ) LOVE LOVE LOVE! maybe my second favorite attack ?? i just love it sm espec the rendering xoxo 10. attack on @/tallystired ( @warriorcats4life9 ) like this too, i think the anatomy i did was. off. but i like how i did the hair (i need to get better at drawing small tight curls though, it was passable here but i defo need extra practice ) 11. attack on @/slydragon05 my favorite attack. i actually tried to composition this piece nicely and render metal for probably the first time. it means a lot to me, because this is actually kind of a redraw from an attack i made on this user in 2022! wow,., idek if i was a teen then?? think i was a kid, omg not sure if ill do artfight next year, my adult life is creeping up and i have to prioritize admissions while i ride out these final 2 years of hs (which makes me feel like a baby, bcs some of yall are graduating seniors [uncs!!] ), and i have not been considering a career in art in the slightest. ive also never really been satisfied with my online prescence, with no close online friends to speak of </3 nothings really keeping me here, so perhaps i'll start keeping my art more private, or atleast withdraw to tmblr for the time being (especially bcs the comparisions i make is an unhealthy mindset that is unlikely to lead to good things). however, the interactions ive had in my 7 years on this site have ultimately been rewarding. this isin't goodbye, im just going on a tangent here. next project in 6 months!!!
