seafoam and stardust
by alphanea @ Mon Jun 17, 2024 8:39 am [Reply]

      argh i love both themes so much deciding on a side is so hard! i'll probably end up on the stardust side like 90% sure but still the seafoam also has such pretty colors and themes.

      looking forward for artfight 2024! if there are any fellow fighters that see this, good luck on the battlefield! don't forget to take breaks between attacks!

molotov @ Mon Jun 17, 2024 9:03 am

    holy cow, this is absolutely stunning! the contrast of colors is spectacular and the way you draw water has me envious. i can certainly relate with the indecision on the teams, and this masterpiece certainly isn’t helping me any. though for seafoam i will remain loyal. whomever you settle on, i look forward in seeing you on the battlefield.🫡

duckblind @ Mon Jun 17, 2024 9:05 am

this is beautiful! i hope it gets featured! i chose seafoam but it was a difficult decision. good luck this year!

Aldersnap @ Mon Jun 17, 2024 9:06 am

I’m definitely on team seafoam :3

concept art, trying to get a feel of the coastline Theo appears on

i've sorta hit a stumbling block with my writing, and i wanna get a feel for the surroundings so i can write this 1 sentence. XD
i do need to make an inkarnate map for the area anyway so concept sketches like this help a ton

it has been a long time since I posted my last drawing, i was really stressed lately and stopped drawing, both digitally and traditionally. today I decided to draw this river, I usually dont draw landscapes but I just went with it. goodbye for the next three months.

      pro tip: sea of thieves screenshots give you amazing scenery/background drawing ideas if you ever want to draw ocean/nautical/underwater things.
      i like to take a bunch of screenshots whenever i'm playing just for that

Everything Is Better With Turtle
by heyheygirl101 @ Mon Jun 10, 2024 10:29 am [Reply]

didn't know where I wanted this to go after making the mountains, then I added a giant air lifted turtle and well... the rest just kinda followed lol

BadgerBuddies @ Mon Jun 10, 2024 10:48 am

He’s so majestic flying through the sky!

Victor Grantz. @ Mon Jun 10, 2024 10:50 am

Absolutely beautiful, a moment in history.

this was really really challenging but also pretty fun!!! I tend to get overwhelmed with backgrounds (which is why I never draw them) so I'm making a goal to get more comfy doing them hehe

DubstepKittenYT @ Sun Jun 09, 2024 1:37 pm

Holy moly this is gorgeous!!!

Dogjelly @ Sun Jun 09, 2024 1:39 pm

THIS IS SO PRETTYY!!!
I love the warmth of the light coming from the windows/lanterns!
Looks super cozy =D

the break of morning light based on this drawing by Guest
by arcadia. @ Mon Jun 10, 2024 2:21 am [Reply]



      i wish that we could go back in time
      to those days that made us who we are
      but I know you had to go and live your life
      and I also had to go and live mine

      so I'll call you up, my friend
      ‘cause I miss what we had then
      you say you're doing fine
      but you also miss those times

    the songs on my playlist make me cry. I’ll be gone the 9th - 21st.

    by the lighthouse on the hill we opened a door to a different world

I miss the beach
by Poison Rose @ Wed Jun 05, 2024 11:46 pm [Reply]

I wanna go to the beach so bad. I did this on my phone and I'm honestly shocked at how well it turned out. It is 4:46 am I should go to sleep

Welcome to Delau

Life can be granted anywhere, yet it can also be taken away anywhere.
Life brings death and sorrow.
without a choice, you may be forced to stay still here.


I'm in need of practicing backgrounds. I don't feel confident with them, I don't feel comfortable with painting backgrounds and I know I have lots to learn. So here's to the journey of learning together with a world I once created for most of my dragon characters and the story that started to form while I was practicing dragon anatomy with them. This will probably be the keepholder for such practices - if I dare to paint the different regions of their home.


Though allow me to confess; I do feel comfortable with painting space. So this wasn't all that scary, the only scary part was putting pieces of my imagination together into what it's supposed to be instead of being "stand alone fragments". And my vague attempt to turn the process of editing moons in photoshop into something doable in the oekaki board. Oh and I have not yet tried painting planets, so this was the first time doing it.

this is for a tumblr post/poetry bit I saw and wanted to reply to xD

btw, wanted to give a heads up that I'll be on a bit of a break from posting after this :0 just for a short time! maybe until the summer event? but maybe not even that long. I have some more in-depth projects I want to focus on. c:

COOLDOGOOO @ Sat Apr 13, 2024 11:00 pm

this is stunning... the little outlines on the birds and... really everything about this is so gorgeous, this deserves a feature 110%! (though to be fair, all of your pieces deserves features lol , but this really stands out)

Lucikan @ Sun Apr 14, 2024 1:58 am

Ohhh I love this! The atmosphere and vibe is so nice, love how you drew the birds too ^^

Also hope you have a good break Lo!! Best of luck with your future projects <3

TheSongOfTheStars @ Sun Apr 14, 2024 4:12 am

Aurora
by See_Air_Ruhh_ @ Wed May 29, 2024 7:26 pm [Reply]

I have had such a wild year as far as space events go. I was able to witness totality of the eclipse, and also got to see the northern lights. Both from my front porch. Amazing sights to see for sure.

The northern lights really inspired me; though to the naked eye, the sky mostly just looked a really deep pink/Purple where I'm located, but the photos I took came out beautiful. I hope I get to witness such things again during my lifetime. 🩷

i rarely ever do backgrounds and greatly struggle with doing texture without making my life a struggle so i thought i would try some different techniques. I'll come back and do some more later but its important to note that these are with heavy inspiration from and using tips from the CS user qwertyo! please give them and their tips some love <3

Crazyclaww @ Fri May 24, 2024 11:05 am

oh wow these turned out great :o
funny you mention qwertyo, seeing her stuff always makes me want to practice backgrounds!

~HєуRєι~ @ Fri May 24, 2024 11:56 am

tyyy!! these have been to challenge me against blending and focusing doing far too much detail but also working with different textures because i do not mess with those that much lmao.

An online buddy recommended her guides and studies which I've seen before!! They're truly so fantastic.

new horizons based on this drawing by arcadia.
by arcadia. @ Tue May 28, 2024 2:52 am [Reply]

    jupiter was the first planet to form, and its inward migration during the primordial solar system
    impacted much of the formation history of the other planets


      i believe that we've got it wrong, got it wrong
      we'll realize when it's said and done, said and done
      that in our words we've lost so much more
      than we've ever won

      the aftermath
      is cracked wood where fences stood
      and the broken bones of our childhood

    sobbing this song is so impactful. it’s “unmade” by sleeping at last

COOLDOGOOO @ Tue May 28, 2024 2:53 am

omg this is so pretty, i love the galaxy coyote!! <3

You know it's rottin' away on itself

I found you dead under there all alone

So I wrote "nice fox" on a wooden cross
(And it don't mean nothin' at all)


Ough there's a bunch of things I should be doing but have this instead :^)
