Galixye

Welcome to whatever this is

[galixye]

WIP intro post.

Hello strangers I'm Galixye/Martin, He/They. I'm an autistic artist fairly new to the whole online posting stuff thing. I mosty post fanart here on tumblr with a few drawing of my own oc's as well (hope to post them more eventually)

I'm active here on Tumblr (and on @canary-clan) and Toyhouse.

I dont do commissions. but I do take requests (<-ask box)-(I might not accept/could take a while to do) and art trades.

I do/will rarely post artwork that needs a gore/horror warning (they are always below a "read more')

I'm open to any questions, all the time.

I occasionally will mention stuff regarding my anxiety and fears as they are very connected to my art, I will not put a warning on these. unless I feel it's necessary.

if I post something with a spelling error I won't fix it unless it causes communication issues/misunderstandings.

[galixye]

i definitely can't do full drawing for this but maybe ill redo these at a later point not during the challenge but just for fun, anyway Day 5 A: connection and loneliness i had an idea for a drawing pre-exile with auntie kangashan and a matching post exile with those storage statues. but i definitely dont have the energy to do that this week.

Day 5 B: hope and desperation

i just wanted to draw my duo, my 'sees the good in you and hopes youll chose to do right thing' and 'probably is a criminal on the run but shhh dont worry about it' team. dont know if i got the desperate expression across properly but im to tired

[galixye]

Day 3: Celebration!

[galixye]

Day 2: Music - Boss Battle! explorers of time/darkness/sky

might do another one for a song not from the game but we'll see, i just really wanted to draw them surrounded by enemies.

ocs: Moss(she/her) the munchlax and Marlin(he/him) the piplup.

[galixye]

i didnt really have any ideas for day one so its very messy

Day 1: Errands

um its transparent whoops didnt mean to do that oh well im to lazy to fix it right now

[galixye]

oh since this is very sketch and messy heres the designs (still working on them)

this is my currently Un-named (some space themed name maybe like Nova or something?) skitty and Cynda the cyndaquil. they were my ingame team for mystery dungeon dx!

@heavensgaze love the new cats that joined The Garden i had to draw them

[galixye]

so i dont know what happened here pattern wise i just got super carried away um heres my 'what if Shatterpatch was in my clangen save(Canary-Clan)' for @shatterpatchs-hopeclan . thought process for drawing and cat below cut

Ok so i tend to treat one color cats as patterned if theres not a lot of white/i dont have a unique fur/body style just because i find it more fun. but i definitely over did it fir this design but oh well ( i was even planning on adding patterns based on paredolia :seeing faces/objects/animals in things like clouds but decided against it only adding a few eye like stripes to the front legs to make a bit more unsettling quality to her as any old spirit should be)

i at first was going to go the bird angle and i still tried but i think i landed more closer to a butterfly/fae theme instead which still fits for a Canary-Clan spirit (also because i was listening to Stranger by rabbitolagy + the way Shatterpatch interacts with the living world feels very fae) id probably change her name if she was in CC though something like Swan-Swirl. id definitely have to tone back the detail if she would be a important character but i also could see me keeping a complex design if she was only going to appear a few times (similar to the actual 'starclan guide' in CCs save file who hasn't appeared yet her names NightBeak and i am going to hate drawing her)

as for a cat to draw ummmmmmmmm idk heres Owl i think she'd be very cute in your style

[shatterpatchs-hopeclan]

OHHHH WOWIEWOW THIS DESIGN IS SO GORGEOUSSS!! There are so many little patterns in this design that, as I was adding them in, made me think "eheheh this is so perfect for her >:3" Thank you sosoSO much for poarticipatinggg!!

And here's my half of the trade for ya!! I gave Owlwhisper some owl feathers!! ^U^

And here's a link to the HQ image in case Tumblr decides to downscale it!!

[galixye]

Awwww Owl looks so cute in your style!!!! <3 :D hehehehe thank you!!

@rooted-clangen :)

idea rambling below

two cats whose entire clan died a few days ago find eachother. I imagine that CanaryStar in this au wasn't found by Raven or Owl and instead wandered alone after Burrow-Clans collapse before stumbling apon Root. She obviously cant leave this kit unattended so she takes Root with her to find a new home...

but shes just one cat someone needs to watch root when she goes hunting, i think Canary would try to contact a medics spirit to guide her in caring for this kit, and who answers? QuartzDove of course. its awkward and tense but Doves not going to leave his best friend murderer as the sole caretaker of a kid. (also he finally has someone to teach healing too)

I dont know how Roots faith in Starclan will clash with Canary and Doves relationship with The Spirits, if Starclan is similar to how it is in the books (ie: deterministic, ghosts cant change the physical world, ghosts are the same as the person they were in life) then it will definitely not be compatible with The Spirits. Dove especially will be torn between telling Root about the Spirits (he would absolutely believe that Starclan is just a tale that a cat told root so she can handle grief better, so he probably wont tell her about how Spirits are made of memories and are not really the cat who died)

He definitely would push for Canary to find some more cats to help her (mostly to avoid accidently saying something upsetting to Root). whether this leads to her forming Canary-Clan or not im not 100% certain of.

If she does form Canary-Clan i imagine things would be a bit different since Dove is present, mainly i cant see her being mates with EbonyRaven which means no Finch. If she doesn't form Canary-Clan then i can see her traveling a lot never really settling somewhere but maybe instead finding loners who would travel with her. completely abandoning Clan life. just her, root, dove and wherever the winds guide her.

Ahhhh you have to stop Slaying at those design contests and give us a chanceeeee ( positive fuel )

thank you? and sorry haha. I love designing characters, i dont get to do it often outside of these contests since i feel bad making something i have no intention of using again. honestly if i could choose id only participate for fun but be like disqualified(?) from being considered, i do feel bad for entering so many contests but there just so fun!

i love seeing other peoples contests entries its so cool seeing how differently everyone can approach the same concept, i know your saying this in good fun but i truly do hope no one feels discouraged from entering a contest because of other peoples entries. I honestly am considering doing one for Canary-Clan if i get the chance but i dont know how that'd work.

Tempestclan design contest!!

Sometime soon, Beavercloud will be having a litter of 4 kits! I've seen a lot of clangen design contests recently, so I've decided to make my own! (Plus I've been struggling with the designs for these guys 🥲)

Granitekit: Demigirl • know it all • lover of stories

(Design notes: Has a weak back leg)

Lionkit: Male • Shy • careful listener & quick witted

(Design notes: Blind in left eye)

Rockykit: Female • impulsive • interested in clan history

Rattlekit: Demiboy • fearless • active imagination

(Design notes: Fangs and snake-like eyes)

RULES:

Do not add any offensive or stereotypical things to your design

Do not draw anything NSFW

Go wild! You can add basically anything to their design just as long as you follow the design notes and sprites

Make sure to either repost this post with your design, or tag me on your own post!

Make sure that you draw them as adults! Drawing a kit design along with it is allowed though!

Since their mother is Beavercloud, I would recommend taking inspiration from her design, but this is optional!

If you are one of the winners, make sure to message me which character you would like me to draw!

The deadline is June 1st

1st Place Prize: Your design will be featured in the comic, and you will get a fully rendered drawing of your oc including a background

2nd Place Prize: A fully rendered drawing of your oc with a plain background

3rd Place Prize: A fully rendered headshot of your oc with a plain background

Disclaimer!! If your design wins, that design will then belong this comic! I may also adjust some things with your design if I feel the need to :]

[galixye]

ooohh another design contest :) i could only think of designs for two of them

im looking at Lion and i cant tell if i put the blind eye on the wrong side, i definitely put it on the right instead of the left didn't I. um ignore that and pretend its drawn correctly yeah.

was making a concept page for my oc so i could put it on Artfight figured id post one of the images here since i like it well enough.

I dont know how to draw Tias magic its a little to dependent on backgrounds which i dont wamt to draw, the idea is cool in my head but to difficult to draw

[galixye]

when last artfight ended i told myself id design references for my miitopia ocs, 72 days until artfight and i haven't even started them :'(

drawing human(-ish) characters is so difficult purely because i cant make a outfit design this sucks. resisting making them all cats so i dont have to deal with it, but the whole point of making those ocs was to force me to draw humans aghhhhhhh ive got a half a folder full of ideas for their faces alone and 1 page of outfit studies >:c

[galixye]
