Together with you is my favourite place to be. - Wei Wuxian with his family (creation challenge by @gimme-a-chocolate)

Challenge: From your creations, choose 4-6 gifs and do a split of before and after adding your colouring. Thanks for tagging me @aowyn, @highwarlockkareena, @inessencedevided, @lan-xichens,  @lanzhanshands,

1)  I just used basic colouring here to brighten and sharpen the image, then made the colours more vibrant. I also had to edit the colours a bit to make sure the final image wasn’t toooo blue.

2) After I brightened and sharpened the Jin Zixuan scene, I wanted to add some pastel yellow and pink gradients. Also added the little peony image.

3) After brightening and sharpening, I wanted to fiddle with the colours to add a late night/romantic mood, so I added some darker blues and purple tones. I also wanted to try out a text effect here. 

4) This was more basic colouring here to brighten and sharpen the image, then I overlaid another gif on the cliff.

5) Here, I wanted to add extra vibrant colours on Xue Yang, kind of like how poisonous animals/plants are usually brightly coloured. The base scene was pretty grey so the final image looks much different. 

I tag @junsfangs, @xueyangs-pinky-finger, @manhasetardis, @lanqirensimp, @cillianmurphy, @rose-tylers and anyone else who wants to do this (you can also do it for graphics or any other type of edit if not gifs)!

For @leonzhng‘s amazing Bernie in CQL meme challenge. Thanks for tagging me, @highwarlockkareena, @fengqing, @aheartfullofjolllly

Fun fact: The real reason we don’t get a wangxian kiss in episode 43 or at xuanwu cave is because Bernie was always there along with them and they didn’t want to have their first kiss in front of him. 

I tag: @wangxianbunnydoodles, @manhasetardis, @xueyangs-pinky-finger, @lan-xichens, @aowyn, @yaoyang and anyone else who sees this and wants to do this (just tag me an @leonzhng if you do!)

March Gif Challenge: Week 1

Prompt: Use a base GIF and edit it the way you like!

I was tagged by @inessencedevided and @yibobibo in @lan-xichens challenge.

The first gif is my edit and the second one is the base, for reference. The Jiang colours are purple, so of course I had to use purple colouring here! 

I think a lot of you have done this already. I guess I tag: @highwarlockkareena, @leonzhng, @fengqing, @lanzhanshands, @aowyn, @mylastbraincql, @xueyangs-pinky-finger, @aheartfullofjolllly, @wei-gege and anyone else who sees this and wants to do it!

remake your first gif challenge:

Thanks for tagging me, @highwarlockkareena! 

Wow, my first gif was over 4 years ago... I didn’t even have PS back then and even once I started using PS, I didn’t know how to sharpen gifs for a while. So I’ve posted two remakes: my first set ever and my first using PS (which was exactly 4 years ago). The differences in the first ever gif vs. my remake now are hilarious, so thanks Kareena!

tagging @wangxianbunnydoodles, @biancadelqueen, @rose-tylers, @jamescarstairs, @chaerinspires, and anyone else who wants to do this!
