Aaand this will be it for this year of ArtFight! Thank you everyone SO MUCH for the attacks, I spent like 80% of the month running after revenges! I never thought I'd be attacked so much and it truly saved my month <3 July was rough, getting to make and receive such amazing art made it a LOT better!
Overall I'm glad I could revenge everyone! I had SUCH A BIG ATTACK LIST and I could barely even touch it! Many targets got to me first, and I like doing Revenges (points....... I'm competitive ok) and chose to priorize them. If u didn't get something from me don't worry, I'll save my plans for next year >:3
These are all fairly high-res, so if anyone wants a bigger vers. just send me a DM! And if you attacked me and u have a tumblr account and I didn't find u feel free to tag me so I can reblog u to no end <3
Attack collage idea stolen from @/crownedinmarigolds! I cropped all of them to better suit the grid, but all were posted here on tumblr with the "#Artfight 2026" tag~
Once again, thank u <3
Art ramblings under the cut! About things like The Art Process, things I learned about, and Grass.
Man I really am NOT consistent AKSPAKSPAKS
Can't complain tho! I did pick this year to experiment more with processes. Like, when to stop with the lineart and jump into painting, when to paint over the lineart, merge everything and paint above it, layer effects, harsh shadows only vs softer shadows and all that.
Def learned a LOT. I don't usually paint my own art as much as these, so ArtFight always pushes me when it comes to Color in general. Some processes I think worked for me better than others. Sometimes I felt like I was running on ice, the hours going by but the painting remained stuck. Other times I blacked out and the result turned out surprisingly good.
I also feel like Likeness is a weak point of mine. I struggle with it even with my own characters! (Lucian's face is my personal nightmare) Also, I *somewhat* feel like I have a certain Style when it comes to Faces (big eyes........) and def need to work on adapting it to better suit some faces and even painting finishes.
It didn't help that my month was fairly chaotic work-wise, and I was sick like half of July, so I was never sure of how many Hours I could spend in one painting. I also don't like leaving a painting on standby for too long (like too many days), because when I return to it, often I feel the urge to correct everything and/or start again and thus it never gets done!
Even now I wish to return to some attacks/revenges and paint them better!! But then again I always feel like that even a day later.
I'll choose to believe this means I'm improving with each piece that gets finished!
(def not issues with perfectionism. Of course. I would never. Pft.)
Overall a good yield!
I liked doing couples quite a bit, and these are some of the best clothes I've ever draw xD James is always with like a t-shirt or shirtless, so it was good practice! I feel like I understand suits so much better now... shirt collars still bug me tho.
I also NEVER bother with background or scenery, so it too was a learning curve! Def need to learn where to focus my efforts with them. Like, on @/ulysses000 revenge I painted every. single. little grass.
Those are not a brush. Each little grass bead it a brushstroke. Why? WHYYY DID I DO THIS, only for later struggle with the light so so much, I could've spend longer with like, the nighttime-under-starlight part and less in the GRASS
oh, well. Wishing myself some better FOCUS next year!!
the ref for. the grass. look at them. very important indeed.

CrownedinMarigolds - Artfight 2026 - Team Mystery!
Here it is! All fifty of my pieces I drew for Artfight this year! I'm so so sorry I couldn't attack everyone on my list, but rest assured I have the list saved to draw more soon! (Whether this year or for Artfight next year remains to be seen)
Thank you so much to everyone who attacked me!!!
i like when fiction treats love as a more complicated force and not something that is inherently pure or redemptive. portray it as flawed and complex as any other human impulse. give me love as prejudice, love as possessive stasis, love as addiction, love as blindness, etc.

he likes having his autonomy violated and his boundaries overruled it's literally good for him. he likes being given a meaningful task within pre-defined constraints that he absolutely must do Or Else. and he likes being packed up and kept in a box. send post.
i love when a character’s worst traits become, against all odds and against their will, what saves them. when their irrational paranoia suddenly becomes right. when their obsessive vendetta suddenly makes them useful. when their cowardice leaves them the only person left to carry on

a week into artfight i would like to give out the following reminders: it is okay if you thought you were going to participate but ended up not having time. it is fine if you started out enthused and then lost steam. you do not owe anyone revenges. you are not 'behind' and you are not letting anybody down. it is a silly little game for fun. do not forget this.
