HELLO ARTFIGHTERS AND ARTISTS!

This is your friendly (daily) reminder to take a break, stretch and drink water!

Don't push yourself too hard, draw as much or as little as you want during this month and remember to have fun!

[novapark]

Having grown up in the American Southwest water rights and regulation were topics that were never far from dinner table discourse in my politically chaotic family. As for me, I have and will always stand with access to clean water being a human right and for regulations that keep our waterways clear of waste.  

In this new video Vox talks about the Documerica project which took thousands of pictures of life in America in the 1970′s. It’s really shocking how bad the water quality was before the EPA was a thing and I say this as someone who can only vaguely recall a time when I didn’t have to double filter or outright buy any water I wanted to use for consumption. 

Anyway last year the Trump administration took steps to remove protections for watersheds and smaller rivers from dumping. It was easy to miss in the insanity that was 2020.

Slendlr craft attacks! - Part 2 (Unofficial Artfight attacks)

All rambling on the individual trinkets will be under a cut along like before!

Bracelet of Icelandic for @weird-plague-carrying-bug-doctor which matches the one I made of Pink :3 (They are backwards because mobile formatting issues....)

Bracelet of Splendypoet for @sir-qwillian-ferne and Necklace of Alice for @hollowinthegrotto !

And again I will also be sending you all a message related to these at some point after I finish posting all these, just a heads up ^_^

Rambling on each under the cut

Icelandic (and Pink)

In a lot of little ways both bracelets are meant to match and/or mirror each others like with the white on black/blacl on white latter beads, I thought the darker color theming fit better for Icelandics while lighter suited Pink more ^_^

I had originally wanted them to read as "Title, name, nickname" but lack of enough letters + spacing (and only generic english letters, lacking the accents for Icelandics name </3)

The bead between their titles and nicknames are a nod to the other and the pair of charms are one that fits them (general) and one for their nicknames (or as best I could get for Pink)

And the patterning after that is mostly based on their clothes/appearance with a trans flag on Icelandics and a few extra blue beads on Pink's both to match that there's extra pink on Icelandics bracelet and because Pink wears more blue accents/accessories now

Splendypoet

I very much debated using gold on black lettering for splendypoets name (like on my Wildcard bracelet...so they'd match, the friends ever <3) but decided the multicolor fit more and that way their bracelet and the neclace of Alice would match instead <3

The charms are a gold feather for her hat and a candy (lollipop) for Sugartwist (there was supposed to be a charm for Alice but I couldnt find a fit....and forgot) plus gold bells for the splendypoet

I wanted to add a rainbow in the beads cause his suit has rainbow polkadots + eyeliner and Splendypoet simply fits rainbows, so that's split on both sides before having the pan and pangender flags :3 (and I did intentionally spell out Splendypoet instead of Splendorpoet for 2 reasons; one being I enjoy calling them Splendypoet and also because I was having trouble finding enough letters.....especially vowels </3)

Alice

The necklace is more simple (for sizing mostly, but simple necklaces can be pretty) but the main thing is the letters for her name are colorful to match Splendypoet and as a small nod to her being younger

I did show you the alice charm already but it was too perfect to not include! I ended up adding a blue cat charm for her cat and because it made it look balanced with the simple colored beads otherwise ^_^

Slendlr craft attacks! (Unofficial Artfight attacks)

All rambling on the individual trinkets will be under a cut along, some of you may be tagged again (because of how I grouped these so there wouldn't be TOO many grouped together)

Bracelet of Diamond for @hollowinthegrotto ! (And a matching Wildcard one that's mine :3 (They're backwards because mobile formatting issues </3))

Bracelet of Receptionist for @sir-qwillian-ferne and bracelet of THE GOAT for @grilledcheese20000

Andddd bracelet of Hero for @beebisbeeble and bracelet of Purple for @joost--man

I will also be sending you all a message related to these at some point after I finish posting all these, just a heads up ^_^

Rambling on each under the cut

Diamond (and minor notes for WC)

I wanted the suits to match with their bracelets and I already planned to make one for Wildcard so most of the patterning and format between them matches but the key things is a single pair of dice beads for Diamond (with a white die on the left to match her earring) and a lack of gold accents since thats more Wcs thing

The flags are the bi and girlflux flags since I had space to add them (Wc has a Lesbian and pangender flag) as well as a lil red diamond charm I had; its very simple but I think it fits Diamond ^_^

Receptionist

Silver bells and smiling faces for Receptionist and how it presents itself (debating spelling their name bit thought the "Welcome :)" would be a more constrast to the swearing) most of the colors are based on their clothes and the star charms for the hotel itself

And of course the cursing, because what would Receptionist be without its obligatory cussing /silly (plus a lil gold key by one of the silver bells <3)

Its mostly words but I think it fits them still ^_^

THE GOAT

Most of the color patterning is based on her collar and sleeves/arms coloring overall with skull charm to represent him having been dead and made of bones :3

And the pair of loops were an attempt to mimic the patterning of lace and the apron she wears as well as a less obvious nod to the chains on him. The candy charm is to represent Sweets specifically while the bow seemed fitting for him as well ^_^ (Idk if my attempt to be make it a lil different format wise worked the best, but i tried)

Purple

The bracelet is very purple which...is to be expected since he's Purple /silly but the 2 shades of purple are the same beads as used on the bracelet for Hero (mostly because I have the most of them....but also a nod to they've been friends in past iterations of Hero :3)

The smiley faces and spider charm seemed fitting to represent him (both as being friendly, since the spider charm is.....very smiley; but also spooder like fella) and the lil green bead near the back is to represent Kiwi ^_^ (I didnt have any good beads/charms to include something to represent his love of painting and his many smols)

Hero

Most of the patterning order for the bracelet is based on Heros bow/vest/shirt and hands since I thought it would look nice and represent them more literally; the words are near the back because they're not the main focus; they're "important" but not the point if that makes sense

And the ladybug charm is for one because I don't have anything to work for their bow...but former versions of tgem liked ladybugs and had ladybug stickers so a nod to that as well as Hero being a beetle (robit/etc) plus i think it looks nice :3

Artfight attack borders!

I always make attack borders to use myself every year and figured it'd be easy enough to make a matching set this year ^_^

They're free to use! But credit is very much appreciated (be it my Tumblr or my Artfight CourtJester12)
