I found this strip while looking through my sketches in a WIPs folder, and decided to finish it.l 🖤 High-res version and the version without text could be found on my Patre*n. A new pack of some sketches, WIPs, and doodles could be found there as well!
The characters are from my comic Arcane Flames 🖤
Hiii Ur art inspires me alottt to experiment textures and styles!! I just have a question regarding Ur particular paint style. It has a very dry painterly soft texture like the one with your Zelda fanart, I've been trying to mix brushes and colours to get the similar texture but it never comes out right. The dry soft painterly vibe resonates a lot with me and Im realllly trying to aim for it. Got any tips or techniques for me to try out? Also how do you render with it?
I use just two brushes in most cases: a semi-soft round one and a flat one with a grainy texture.
Check my process here ^^ There are two videos with drawing Zelda in particular!

Well... I do it every year, so I did an art summary this year too. This year feels like 10 years and like 1 very long day at the same time. Can't believe that the full-scale war started by russia on February 24th lasts for almost a year already. Please don't forget that russia started the war against Ukraine not in February but more than 8 years ago. My only New Year wish is the victory of Ukraine. If you are willing to make a New Year present, please donate to Ukraine 💙💛 There are too many people who need help now.

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue!
I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product.
Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?
Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.
Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases.
Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.
It's been a while since I drew something Arcane Flames-related. I'm really glad to finally return to this project.
It's hard to say from the result but this piece was inspired by Malanka goat.
Пройшло досить немало часу з тих пір, як я малювала щось по Arcane Flames, я дуже рада, що нарешті повертаюсь до цього проекту.
По результату важко сказати, але на цей арт мене надихнув образ кози з Маланки.
