Warning: This is made by my own experience - backshot mentioning

Starting again on July 1st is my favorite online artist event: Art Fight! If you have OCs, and enjoy making and receiving art involving OCs, then I highly suggest you check out the site and set up an account!

For those who aren’t familiar with Art Fight, here’s a brief overview:

Each year, participating artists are split into two teams.

The main goal is to find any artist from the team opposite yours, and ‘attack’ them by drawing art of their ocs! Your team receives points based on what you create.

Artists that receive attacks can then ‘counter’ by drawing an OC belonging to the person who fought them, or pay it forward by simply attacking anyone on the opposing team!

The official about page with more in depth information is located here! There’s also a video format for this information that can be watched here!

Art Fight is a great chance to interact with tons of different artists, get to know the amazing OCs that others have created, and have a lot of fun making art! The art you receive is also very exciting; you never know who may attack you! Keep in mind, it’s all in good fun and any skill level is welcome!!

The event lasts a month (July 1st - August 1st), and the team with the most points by the end wins!

so. that new update huh

📺 🚨 Emergency Broadcast 🚨 📺

Classic Napoleon. Classic Napoleon.

Sometimes when you just look at the kind of stuff Napoleon did, it feels like you’re reading some weird parody. Especially if you look at the personal letters he wrote. It’s just…surreal.

That being said, Napoleon didn’t personally kidnap the pope, he just…didn’t release him. Things had been rough for a long time between him and the church, so it didn’t really come suddenly, but… reading about it, it was as if I were reading about some random mishap. Like “oh, I kidnapped the pope! Well that’s bad! Damn impulsivity!”

On the Josephine part, that was another thing that the books I’ve read would mention; Josephine was pretty damn popular with the French people because of her style and incredible charm (that, even though she was getting “old”, had bad teeth, and tan skin, which wasn’t really what the French usually saw as pretty or even beautiful!) and her strong participation in society as somebody who loved parties. Marie Louise though was thought of as “bland” and boring, which was certainly also because she was Austrian, oops. But hey, her predecessor was Josephine de Beauharnais! You can’t compete with that!
