#14 ArtFight revenge on @x.intruder.x with their awesome deep-sea character Void. This piece transported me into a state of deep focus and was completed in just one session, which felt very nice!

#8 ArtFight - Late revenge on DaedricWolf with their sassy Civet oc Link! :3 I loved working on this! My rather rough linearts feel so nice to create, it's just like an expanded sketch phase hehe.

#7 ArtFight - Late revenge on @haskalowo.bsky.social with her fursona Haska. This one was the first simple painted drawing I did this ArtFight and I enjoyed the process a lot! There will be some posts in a similar style in the near future, watch out 👀

#5 ArtFight - Late revenge on @chasethestars.bsky.social with their magnificent humanoid oc Max.
Humanoids are still so hard to draw but I loved rendering this artwork. The horns indicate my passion for rather animalistic traits xD

And here's an artfight revenge for Lonely_in_the_rain on AF! A glowy and dramatically lit scientist for a glowy and dramatically lit scientist, I had a lot of fun with this one!
#art #artfight

A halfbody of a scientist character, Gray, stnading with his back partly facing the viewer while holding a glowing pink beaker. He is turned to look over his shoulder with a slightly concerned, somber expression, and the pink reflects off of his glasses. Behind him, a wolfish looking shadow with glowing white eyes looms.

#4 ArtFight - Late revenge on SilverMagpie21 with their angelic creature Aurelia. This piece felt super light and fun to draw and took me only about 2.5 hours, which I'm very proud of :3

#3 ArtFight - Late revenge on @kazumishio.bsky.social with their sweet PupPoppie Lime. Loved the colors of him and wanted to make the lineart as crisp as possible 💚
(I also adored the sketch with all my heart which is why the lineart took over 3 hours.. oopsie)

#1 ArtFight - Late revenge on @gyarakushi.bsky.social with their marbled polecat OC Murphy. I loved bringing him to live in this year's theme!

P.S.: maybe I should have posted the first attack before I've posted the second xD

✧ArtFight 2025✧
I can't believe that this is my 8th year (!!!) of ArtFight already! I'm very excited.

I will focus on revenges this year. I probably won't be able to cover every attack I get. My workflow is slow and I want to manage my stress levels better.
