Artist (allegedly)

uhhhhhhhhh elves am I right????

Ignore the fact that my last drawing was posted 4 months ago and look at this prompt list I made for Junicorn!

The text is transcribed under the cut!

It has one overarching prompt for every week if you want to make one drawing per week and 3 extra prompts if you want to make more than just one. Art is supposed to be fun and I personally don't find it fun when I have to "catch up" every few days in order to complete daily prompts.

The horrible horse with a human face in the corner is usually not a unicorn but always my beloved OC Grete, or Gretchen as I affectionately call her. She is a swan-necked terror and I love her.

Anyway.

This is the prompt list that I'm going to be following for this month's drawing challenge and if you want to use it aswell I implore you to do so! And please tag me if you do even one prompt, knowing that something I put forth caused someone to draw a horse would make me indescribably happy!

Second artfight this month (phew! I've been so busy with irl stuff but I'm so pleased with the drawings I did manage to do!)

Characters, Sylvia (dragon/ pink hair girl) and Malone (angel/ sword girl) belong to my friend Cicada @sea-angle (lazuli175 on artfight). She's the one who invited me to artfight last year, so all of this wouldn't have been possible without her contribution. Looking forward to drawing blorbos from my mutuals blog in 2025 too

Thank you so much for everything, Cicada! I hope you like this picture of your OCs. It's kinda sorta a sequel to "Mid transformation Swirls" from last year.

This is the most effort I've put into an artfight ever and possibly my best Illustration of 2023

Beloved sentient mold girl <3 @sea-angle

Tw some gore below

Songs I listened whilst drawing this that are somewhat related

References used:

Romantic goth fashion

Gothic lolita fashion

Mold under a microscope pictures

Additional inspirations:

The aesthetic of the ugly

The poem "flori de mucigai" (mold flowers) by Tudor Arghezi (Romanian modernist poet)

The tumblr mushroom post

My thought process:

Since she is a sentient mold person I kinda went with the zombie concept at first then came up with the mushroom post thing and then decided to do a "dead but not really" stance. Cicada mentioned in her artfight description that the shoulder wound is a Canon part of the character so ofc, already going with the dead girl concept I decided it was appropriate to draw an open wound in such a context.

There is blood underneath the words "kill" "Can't" and "matters" for emphasis but also like. You might imagine that's also from her wound so she was maybe dragged or whatever. Her pose is supposed to be midway between the classic dead pose (burial) and a sitting up from the floor pose. She is not so much winking as opening the eye exposed to the light first, as if just having woken up. The point of her entire stance is to taunt the killer or death itself like "you thought you could kill me, sike, think again".

The background features wilted rose petals because of the goth aesthetic and also yeah to enhance the funeral like pose. The background is mostly made out of black mold and white mold. Each word is circled differently to suggest a certain intonation etc. Also to mimic both mold and lace/ stitches

I tried to add as many details as possible but not all are very visible. She is supposed to be holding onto a cross necklace but it's covered by her hands hence why I drew her cross earrings

Whatever other details, I can discuss if you have questions

This took me almost all day but it was worth it
