just a peek of the background of my praxim weapon entry. The paintings and the certificate I made by hand. The "photos" I generated using Deep AI. the window painting is in fact a view of a burning village from a building that hasn't yet burned. may or not be foreshadowing uwu

I got really motivated and inspired to draw this instead of working on my other entry. I used real daggers and knives as inspiration to design his. It's essentially a totem of an Owl, a White ferret (or weasel), and a Rabbit, which coincides with the dagger's transformation power.


To Do:
Still have to shade and highlight the clothes
Shade body
Main lighting effect
Main shadow effect
Wooden table grain texture
shade, highlight and shine the dagger :P
add extra items on the table and in the background

Mostly just wanted to show the fire hair effect I made from scratch; by playing around with too many tools XD (Layered red, orange and yellow using Paint 2 brush in the general shape I wanted, used the smudge tool to make squiggly strands upwards, used the blur tool until it looked okay, blurring the outside edges completely; then I got the eraser, using the Thick Brush (Sumi Ink) at half opacity to sharpen and shape it more.

Otherwise, I used the color palette of my abstract painting assignment from when I was in college. It may need adjusting, also I think I might change the ice armor to rock armor. Its kind of bright, also rock would be more resistant to fire. Also I may be avoiding doing the lineart.

Oh, I'd love ideas and feedback on things like the blur effect on the memory mirage framing the fight between Chip and the fire goblin.

Also here's a reference of Chip. Redesigned his outfits in the WIP.

I spontaneously decided to enter the Weapons contest yesterday at 2am and this is what I have so far. We'll see if I finish it before the deadline. :3

My very own version of the board game Candyland. I'll probably change the main map layout and design but for now, I made a composite of a Candy Bar Cabin with Reese's cup planters in front.

Twix bar exterior walls, Pay Day foundation, chocolate covered pretzel columns, Homemade chocolate bar roof, Toblerone roof decor at the top, Mojo chocolate door, Hershey sign, Pretzel square window with Kit Kat shutters. I'm thinking it has vanilla wafers as drywall and the insulation is the cream between them.
