i hope embla has time to finish too, I know most artist are using their time working on the big winter contest
you better work too
your art is delicious
crawling out of my cave just to share this old piece.
(i promise he has pants on, i just cropped it cuz i didn't like the proportions.)
and now im back to hibernating.
Besides, afk-lore is the channel you're looking for if it's a new hero you're trying to make.
Aye aye, I've been a bit busy so we'll se if I'm able to finish it 

feel free to dm me! i love helping other artists :
Always happy to see Talene fanart
Waiting Lucilla art
I was trying to upload a drawing to the community thingy in game but whenever I select a drawing it crashes, I already tried the advanced setting "fix the game" but still no luck.
Is there some kind of size restriction that an image has to be to be uploaded?
I think 10MB is max. Screenshot it and send it through might help
Oooh thx !
hm its only 193 kb , maybe my phone is just not capable
Not sure what then...did it took a while to load? That happens to me often, but my uploads are often chonky
no, it crashes the whole game
Hmmm...have you raised a query at the bug reports?
I run android OS on a Samsung S22, and never ran into any issues before. So it might be software incompatibility?
you were 100% right, i just took out my ancient tablet and it worked without an issue. kinda funny, china phone (Realme 8i) isnยดt working well with china game
oh my Dura
Embla drew the family ever
not only is your art gorgeous
but the concept you came out with, the pose and composition
everyone's expression
im here giggling and smiling and i look crazy
๐
Ayo that's so sweet ty ๐๐
I love yours too! Oku is not getting enough love

@frank anchor YOU WIN
Hfjshdksjd ๐
With all the amazing submissions though, I'd say the competition is tough haha
Ty ty

Good job @frank anchor, i really love yours 
Thank you


@frank anchor cooked, and it's absolutely delicious.
CY HELLO, HE LOOKS GREAT 
^^^^ 
๐
JIN, RAI, HELLO!! Thank youuu, i luv youu

@crimson folio @dusty knot
So happy to see you again, hope everything is going well! 




^^^
Yee, all is well, thank you guys โค I semi came back to AFK a little while ago. How are youuu? Any recent art of yours?? I wanna see.
doing more less well! 
I think I don't have any recent afk art sadly
, drawing motivation has been super low lately
sketches only
oh and this meme to cheer up Rai some time ago, she was working on a code all day so when she told me something went well it was shtpost moment lol
this one is still my favourite 
I love them all

I still (I think) haven't drawn awBaden this is a crime
Do it! Do it!
oh wait, I do have something I think
will see if I can do it this weekend! I'm busy this week and not free until friday 
another things is if it's finished lol
I haven't touched the Haelus one since march I forgot sadfas, and I'm trying to doodle a Lavatune lol
AAAAAAA

Omg the DETAILS. 
Thank you both for your delicious art.


Interesting ๐
Im calling the cops. Unless...
okay so i finally woke up for good and just noticed you quoted this one, I'M IN LOVE 
im so late to seeing this gorgeous Hodgkin. but thank you for the opportunity to witness him

O ma
Lemme prepare my antibonk helmet rq
some progress from that big spread project i mentioned a while back... if anyone has character interaction ideas i'd appreciate it cuz im not the most in deep with the lore
also that might be enough accountability for me to actually get it done, eventually..
You might want to ask lore questions for interactions in the #afk-lore channel there are two people in there that are well vested in the lore
wow this already looks amazing now!
Congratulations @frank anchor , it's made official
@frank anchor CONGRATULATIONS 
@frank anchor huge W
Perhaps you, jame and niills will take the cake next time. Speaking of which...
Where do we enter the winter one again?
I believe Instagram or Twitter
@frank anchor CONGRATS
Access Google Forms with a personal Google account or Google Workspace account (for business use).

sorry for ping
My baby... Orthros
This is fantastic, I love it!!
All good, thanks
Thank you 
@frank anchor You did amazing 

@frank anchor congratulations
Congratulatory bonk 
Ty 
I love you my sweetheart! 

oi, @frank anchor! that was a masterpiece! well-deserved 1st spot
Smash

Wait what happened?
um, Christmas Server Icon Event
Ohhhhh
Congratulations @frank anchor !!!!
Oh wait I am looking at it
GAY FAMILY!!!!!!#&2@;#:$-$
@frank anchor I love you for this
Ajdhjshd ๐


Does that include your organs as well?
Embla! You have a sweet deal here!
If you wish to be disassembled, just let us know, we'll arrange something
Perfect
May some adeptus mechanicus โborrowโ some of them once they are disassembled?
Ask Embla, they own the parts
Afk character designs exist in this space where they look amazing on cartoonish proportions and in game models but when you put them on more realistic models it looks kinda dorky
I love this
Looking nice!
Noice
The Cradle of Truth fam in winter wear
Getting lazy again oh my lord I don't wanna do shading hahah
Oh my god!!! So adorable!!!

My god yes!!!!!
Love it love it love love it
Made very well
Wow! They look so chewable! Great job!
ooooh so cool ! will this be your contest entry ?
Noice
Huh
Oh, no, I was just drawing it for fun to be honest
Okay so this is my drawing for the contest, so please give me feedback on how to enhance it
Noice
It is so cute!!!
Thanks!
I do have to say that she does look cute
I am glad you think that then, wanted to make a pretty drawing of her, and I wanted something creative too, lol, she is tied down actually now
Thatโs good to know so I donโt appear weird
Even though people already say I am
Lol, I am weird too at times so it's alright
Thnx
I got a new mini to paint so I want to ask what color scheme I should do
Name a character/race and send it to me and Iโll try to do the color scheme
An example would be a lightbarer color scheme
I think a purple-black-pink color scheme would look nice, but mostly purple
Ok
Maybe as if itโs a conjour?
Like I prime it black then highlight it with purple
Maybe I make the heads different tones of purple probably?
Idk
Also what terrain should I do
Man, I bet she eats her potato skins. Nice art!
Yup, that sounds nice
Ok
very nice drawing i dig it, if you wanna enhance it a bit you could add some more hard shadows you started a bit here and there but i think you could add a few more. I played a bit around with your piece ( to distract myself of my own) hope thats ok
Oh wow, that looks amazing! My drawing in its current state looks bland compared to this, lol. I'll enhance it then, thank you so much!
you might also wanna add a few shadows and light to the background and a few more decorations on the green hanging over the chimney ( i hate drawing decorations and shading/lighting them too but i guess we have to T-T) some cool deco i saw are bells, stars, snowflakes
I am editing it then, I was about to make some finishing touches and upload it, as only one person gave me a critique. But I guess there are still things that I can use to enhance it, and this was really helpful, thank you very much! I needed this
i also went and made some quick edits if thats ok,, i think the piece is really nice, has a really nice sense of mood and lighting, and your rendering techniques are really nice! i think overall what would make the piece better is composition and value organization, so the viewer is guided to the focal point (i think you were already doing this pretty well, but i think even more is better). I also tilted the camera for a little more compositional interest, and i did an overlay layer to unify the colors a little more, which boosts the effect of the mood. I also agree with wraith strix that you should continue to diversify your edge quality. a decent rule of thumb is that cast shadows tend to have harder edges and form shadows tend to have softer edges.
anyways great stuff : )
oh sorry if it wasn't clear i made these edits on top of wraith strix's,, not trynna claim their work or anything like that///
Thank you so much for the thorough critique as well! And the art is so nice looking now with these two edits! I'll use these tips to make my own drawing better. I'll also try to use these tips better in the future when I don't know how to make my pieces better looking and I feel like they're finished
oooooh that sounds interesting ! do you maybe have a trick/tutorial to make feathers easier to draw ? they will be a real pain
@silk rose @half elbow here is the edited piece! I think the fire could be better (like in the two images before) and I wanted to add a bell, but SAI crashed and I didn't want to recreate it, lol. I have also added a gaussian blur around her, but I'm not sure if it makes it better or worse. Anyways, if I could still make things better, let me know!
Looks amazing now!!!
Definitely big improvement !!! Great job !
If you still have the energy more deko on the tree would be great but it might just be a personal taste thing ๐
Pro tip of my bf , take some rest and look at it in the next morning with fresh eyes , he always encounters some errors or sees points where he can improve upon after taking a little break โจ๐
Yup, that's definietly what I'm going to do, and when I see problems, I fix them
Thank you, both of you for the help!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Didn't know what to put in the background so I just made it the fairground (though it doesn't look fairground-y enough) 
I have a headcanon that Eugene dotes on Liberta based off Eugene admitting "he is adorable" heheheheh so Lucilla can be Gavus' girl
Looks amazing
Thank you!
Mid-Winter Gift Gala Fanart Contest
sweeet~
Merry Christmas, artists~there's only 1 week left for our Midwinter gift gala fanart contest~Don't forget to compete for a chance to win 500/250 USD and Shemira Figurine
Aaaaaaaaaahhh!!!!!

Niceeeeee
Trying to do things differently and did a
"The Good, The Bad,
The Ugly, and Walker" to get some practice in.
Plus an info dump, just in case anyone wonders why there's 3 of them now.

botnikolai lore
yes
@silk rose @rose igloo sorry for not replying to this earlier but i was busy celebrating my birthday and christmas! i know the piece is done, but i'll answer in case any future piece or whatever,,, anyways i usually approach painting in a very painterly kind of perspective, for feather texture i usually try and pay attention to the direction of the pattern and the surface quality and how it interacts with the light. i usually feel like feathers are pretty glossy, and highlights on them tend to be cooler temperature than you would think. here are some examples of some relatively recent stuff i've done with feathers. lmk if questions ๐งก
also here's some progress on that big painting!
Is that water colour or oil paint brush you're using?
Hot damn those look so nice 
gotta catch em all
my oldest mirael drawing (hat, 2022) vs latest one
im so glad we're having more content of her in the other game
mostly been using this brush, it's a pretty standard chalk brush with transfer
Noice
Heer! 
Idk if this goes here so lmk, but heres my xmax contest entry, criticism very appreciated i want to enhance my art skills
OMG the boat with Rowan's duc- uhh i mean Aix it's such a nice touch
happy -late- b-day !!!

At least post the link to the original artist...
https://x.com/artokaii/status/1741986612433535089?s=20
Thank you!
I couldn't find it after I saved it
I found it pretty easily just by searching afk arena on twitter
Oooh
I have never watched a more realer video
Clapping frfr
Them!! This is adorable 

@dusty knot ๐ฅนโค๏ธ
Omg itโs me
Spoiler marked because it's from mid-winter fest mini quest. i love this
Hmm do i draw Gavus or Eugene
Both 
I'll try ๐ช๐ช๐ช
Both both both!!!
Who took his wig man โผ๏ธโผ๏ธ๐ฐ
EUGENE is done
EUGENE*
I just woke up and my memory is at 0
I'll eat breakfast and draw Gavus next
He's pretty 
Also here's my Kelthur art (apologies if it's messy, I've never done rendering before)
Eugene pulled a prank on Gavus
He did the Jigglypuff, huh?
some more progress on the big painting 
Ulmus looking gorgeous 
woaaaa
All of'em look dope af 
Solise spotted 
Bonk spotted 
I love how you painted Ezizh 

oden another detention
That's half 
Maetria looks so enraged, I love it.
I love himmm
Sketch looking good. You refining or leave it like that?
Thanks
I'll leave it that way, I don't have the strength for more
He!

Fair enough 
Ohhh very nice!
Lucilla and liberta lineart, hopefully I remember to download ref pics to colordrop so I can color it well
It's just a matter of time the moment they breathed "tail grooming service" at the Winter carnival
Look Amazing
Ty! 
Both the lineart and the comic are adorbs! 
just some goofing around this morning

That tail grooming art is amazing!
I wonder how lizard tail grooming would look like. A polish to tail?
Also who is the guy with the rifle? Leaked Dimensional?
Probably polishing, scale removal, whatever needed to make it satisfactory. It's mostly fur tails that's being referred to though
Oh yeah.
I think there are bone tails too? As for Hypogean ones...flesh?
Part of a Doodle compilation I did where Baden is braiding Thaneโs hair

This was my drawing for the recent contest, hehe. Although I had to do it very quickly because I was going on a trip, my idea was somewhat different, but I tried to deliver something at least. ๐
I wonder if the results will be shown today or tomorrow, I am interested in it
Lovely.
What would you think of a Vyloris skin like this? The idea behind is that she's being held by roses instead of chains, so the main theme is roses. Maybe the colors could be different or some added, and the dress could be different and more detailed, but this is just a skecth so far, so I'm open to ideas
Also one leg is longer than the other so I'll fix that lol
I think thta's an interesting idea
Maybe a heart at the crown?
Maybe, I'll try that, and even try putting hearts somewhere else if I can to make it more interesting
Wanted a new background for my phone so put a little something together, does anyone have suggestions for improvements?
Looking nice, but where them wokes at? 
You hate Talene that much you forget her existence? 
Mostly took the character of which I liked the character designs the most
ABelinda wishes to speak with you. xD
But it seems you like Maulers, dont'cha?
Mostly Vika she's my fav, never used Kalene but love her design and Brutus is Brutus ๐

Well, everyone have their own preferences, since it's for your own use, do as you wish
Hello! I just arrived and I'm new in the game but I really fell in love with Belinda so I wanted to do a little warm up with her โจ

what an entrance
welcome welcome
looking forward to see more of your artwork in the future then
Thank you โจ
May the light make my year more happy
๐
hi, im new here, just started the game abt a week ago.
i saw an ad of Eugene and immediately downloaded the game 
i greet thee with this quick sketch of him 
its 5am here and i havent slept- 
Draw him with his husband

I love the art btw! ๐
Not the smiley face lmao
: )
That smile looks so scary ๐

This is fantastic, thanks.
Hello,
I would like to submit my entry for the AFK Arena christmas art contest, I tried to submit with the google form, but it is no longer taking in any submissions despite it still being open, it doesnt close until January 15. Is there another way for me to submit my entry? Please let me know ASAP so I can send it in on time. Thank you
I thought winners were supposed to be announced from the 8th-10th but itโs passed that now so idk whatโs up with the competition unless Iโm missing some info
Where did it say it ends Jan 15 cause the thing says announcing is 8-10
If im remembering correct the submission period was November 29-January 2 and the final result announcements were January 8-10
I wonder why theyโre late lol. Maybe theyโre thinking really hard
Maybe weโre crazy but im not seeing anything saying 15
Both the post and the Google form says announcements are 8th-10th so idk
Maybe theyโre taking longer to decide than they thought they would. Or maybe since thereโs a new hero coming out theyโre distracted by that before they post the competition
That's exactly what I was wondering
omg i thought i was tripping ๐ญ ๐ญ is there any news on why theyre late with the results yet? or are we all just waiting
Ohh thanks guys,I was wondering the same too.. ๐ค๐ค
Lol I was waiting impatiently in those three days waiting for the results, but eh, they are late by some days, the discord art contest was also late I think
Me like you ๐
I LOVE HIM
The winners are out now on insta!!
So much gorgeous art 
It's my husband!!
Congrats to everyone
Heartfelt congratulations to all the winners, plenty of material for me to study
Congrats to the winners!!

You heard me

Lmao, Decorator didn't notice that

They haven't put in the 30 blind box souvenir yet?
By the way, congratulations to the winners, beautiful drawings โค๏ธ

Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It's where your interests connect you with your people.
Awe, it doesn't show the image
Really good artist btw

https://vxtwitter.com/ferginh/status/1747734516100379033?s=20
SONJA AND GORVO TODAY IS MY LUCKY DAY

THE MOTHER

ะะฐ.

SONJA ENJOYER
LETS GOOOOOO

Underrated character frfr
Literally that
Omggg 

๐
She's looks stunning!! 
We are learning some basics about fashion design at work right now. Since most of us aren't really trained at drawing we are supposed to practice anatomy.
My teacher saw my sketch.
Teacher : oh you drew Maleficent! Looks good so far but you should make her a bit thinner, her arms and legs are way too thick.
Me : Too thicc ? Have you seen my other drawings?
Youโre right
Not complaining though
part two of this 
just boyfriends taking each othersโ pics 
i might giv this full color but not now 
No nonono
It's me
I'm taking them
Heeeee!!!

sรญ oui oui
going feral
i'd go woof woof for this man all day- and night 
HE IS PRETTYYYYY!!
HES SO FINEEEE
Sheeesssh
I guess I'll give up on this. There is no information anywhere

You could try asking in #classic-questions or PM the AFK Arena CS
@pure trench you are being summoned 
I did a faction swap
Eugene was supposed to say something but I came up empty so taking suggestions 
"You look a little bit different "
Must be a new haircut 
Wait, if Eugene is a celestial with their motif (wings, white and gold,etc), isn't he the pigeon head now?
I had a lot of fun adding the feather like shoulder piece precisely because of that 
I wonder what does that make Gavus if he's a hypogean.
"Y'know, pigeon head, you can't blend in if you don't ditch your libra"
Omg, you even kept gavus' ground grippers out
yesy es yes yes yes yes
All of this

โI could give u a better deal on those clothes, how bout 100% off at my place?โ

@left sparrow

Might want to hold on to that for a while longer, I still need to finish the others
more progress on the big boy!!
love your process
These are amazing

๐
It's going to be amazing 
Gonna be soo good
All praise lord Dreaf 
It's making it into official when it's completed, this one
Kind, gentle, almost docile, but she definitely has an indomitable will, and you know what has been said about the wrath of a peaceful man (or kitsune in this case).
Some may call her naive and weak, but there's no denying it takes more willpower to stay true to herself and her ways than to simply let the world burn
Exact reason why she's my favorite
Oh, I hadn't thought about it, thank you very much for answering. I'll try
@left sparrow

@left sparrow
Not trying to mean or something, but may I give you a little bit of critique on what I think the drawing could be better in? It looks nice, but I think it could be better somehow, but if you don't want it, then I won't say a word.
Go for it, tell me everything. I'd love to hear every suggestion and critique you have in mind
This goes for every post I made. There's always something to improve, and I know I'm leagues behind the ones I imitate
First and foremost, the contrast. There is barely any. The colors blend together because they mostly have the same light level, and there aren't many dark shadows contrasting them.
Then about the shadows, I recommend not using black for shadows. Instead, try using the color wheel to get a different hue and darker color, like red for the skintone or light magenta for the brown dress. Shadows are usually a colder color, so most of the time you want to go towards purple and blue.
Also, might just be a personal taste, but her eyes look naked to me, give her some eyelashes! And the eyebrows also need the contrast, hers are white, and without the contrast, they blend into the skin.
The anatomy itself is nice, you can practice it more, but you are on a good path.
Okay, part of the clothes are darker, but I meant the shadows with the contrast
Will do, give me a few hours after work and we'll see if I'm on the right track
Okay, I'm looking forward to the drawing
One more note, some hard shadows could be used as well. I think hard shadows are cast shadows and smooth shadows are the form ones
So for example, her skirt and hair will cast a shadow on her skin
u can do some values practice
try painting in greyscale 
i just now noticed the palette icon 
i also need to learn to paint in greyscale but idk how to start
i use it as a guide on how light/dark i want things to be before putting in the colors
and also to decide which parts i want to draw the viewers' attention to
ye that would be perfect for me bc i struggle to chose good colors most of the time
Am I on the right track?
Cute artstyle
Woah big improvement ๐
Adding contrast really made a difference, also added air brush instead of just diluted water colour brush into the mix to smoothen the shades out. Going to try and see if I can replicate the effect with only water colour brush
Maybe take a look again at the shading of the right paintings left chest, it looks a bit smaller than the other one
Our left or her left? Will look into it.
Granted, the "censor bar" is a bit ad hoc compared to the rest
Is it remedied or not quite there yet?
Hm maybe something like this, often things click in place with me after adding a bit of light
Right now I cannot help a lot because I'm on my way to work and doing this on my phone ^^'
It looks great, big improvement! My nitpick is the hair now, it is missing shading. Edited your drawing if that's okay, to see how it could be better, and I think the hair could have some grayish blue parts, and it is whiter where it's shining.
No worries at all, I will work on that next
besides, Noir edit my stuff too from time to time to teach me how I can improve, and the result is always fantastic with much to learn from
I have also gotten some edits on my drawing and I learnt a lot from it
They made my art look so much better
Case in point. Although I do treat the edited result as their own work rather than my own. Won't be truly my own work until I can do it from scratch
Yup, you need to add them yourself to the drawing, to learn and to even make the drawing
We are just helping after all, not making it for you
These will also help you do the drawings better the next time
100%
i followed a channel that helps with basic mistakes and stuffs but i dont think i can send it here cuz ig it counts as promo- if u wanna learn some anatomy and perspectives i can send it through dms 
In the end I didn't get a response. I was a little worried about wanting to know what it was like, but I guess they forgot about it or it just won't happen.
Unless I'm the one who can't get information about it, because I've searched and searched and nothing to see.
I feel a little disappointed about it.
Think I should be more liberal with the hair or it's enough to make it stand out? I like how it is at the moment, but open to add more gray-blue to them
what if- they r blind boxes so only the ones who get it know whats inside 
You could do more, don't feel afraid to experiment with stronger tones! You can also try it out on other drawings
But it looks really nice, great improvement!
Edit: btw, I really like the fluff you did on the ears
I don't think they are public, I've gotten one and didn't get any information about anyone else or me being featured publicly
Thank you. As you can see, there's a 3rd panel, I'll put everything together with that one and see how much I learned stuck with me
Okay, looking forward to that
No, last year the 30 winners of the boxes were made public.
That's the idea, what I'm referring to is that they never published their winners, and I've asked and everyone has acted as if that didn't exist.
I remember that last year I won one and I saw that the winning drawings were in the Instagram post, not this time (this time I didn't see the winners). ๐ฆ
Idk, they might just be late, or are waiting for the actual winners who also sent their shipping information, I think they choose someone else if someone doesn't answer before deadline (this saturday)
Oooh that makes sense
I got the info yesterday or on wednesday that I needed to fill out the shipping info
The lucky people were reached out to ~2 weeks prior to announcement of winners
Btw, what goodies did you get when you won?
And did it actually arrive like a month later?
Understood! I'll wait and see.
The truth is that I was quite worried because I couldn't find information anywhere and I didn't know if it was published and I didn't find out or if something happened.
I'm going to show you what I received ๐
In my case it took 4 months, but it's because I live in Latam.
Well I hope mine won't come so late, I live mid europe lol
I think it will arrive to you in much less time than it did to me. ๐
What did you win?
Oooh they look nice, especially like the Talene lamp
Dunno, it wasn't said what's in the box
I'll see when it arrives
Aaaah but is it from the blind boxes?
๐ฎ
Yeah, I love that lamp

Yeah
Hey, but where did you see the winners? Did they publish them somewhere?
Because I am not aware of who won and I am worried that I will be one of them and reach the deadline without giving information or anything.
I mean the 30 winners in the box
I haven't seen the other winners, I won one, and that's all I know of
They have reached out to me on Instagram (posted my art there)
i hope u dont mind me drawing over your art, i dont usually draw female character and dont really know Solise's appearance, u could add some more definition to the hair by doing larger strands maybe like this
Oooh I understand
Too bad they didn't publish them this time.
and tip for the animal ears is to imagine that they go straight up from where human's ears are, looks kinda like a cat 
Although in the same way, thank you very much for responding. This relieves me a little.
It still discourages me that they didn't make that public and that I was left in such great uncertainty.
This year things were a little different and I was a little discouraged by how they did it this time.
hope this helps
I will continue drawing on my things and I am very happy for having won last year, but I highly doubt that I will participate in anything in afk
Before reaching out to me, I got scared because I didn't get the 1000 diamonds lol
I was sure I didn't win
I didn't receive them either, hehe
And since I don't know anyone who participated without winning, I'm not aware if anyone received those diamonds or not.
That's why I have been in uncertainty, because neither news nor diamonds. ๐
Yeah, no diamonds yet it seems
Oh I see
I was curious about that too! When they announced the winners and didnโt include the diamond/souvenir winners I was lowkey worried tbh
๐ฆ

Much appreciated. I don't mind my art being drawn over at all, so long as it's shared with me and wasn't drawn in any manner that would send @left sparrow running towards your location with a garrotte wire in his hands.
One of the things I like about this place is the constructive feedback I could gather from so many talented and skilled artists, it really helps in improving my skills

Why are you running? I was saying that they shouldn't do anything that would send you running towards them with a garrote in your hands
Wdym I would never
Are you 100% sure? I know you would with some of the things they might do
naur dont worry he wont be following me as i mostly draw hawt men 
He mostly won't then.
Just remember that while she may be forgiving, some crimes can't be forgiven, and some is equivalent to giving @left sparrow the order to fix bayonets and charge
This Saturday?
Oh thx for telling us. I haven't received any form yet, I kept thinking "maybe the Ppl who won the creative prize get their form later" ๐จ
Hehe
I love himmmmm

Guess we will never be able to unsee that association any more
Thanks to someone
Too bad the thread has been deleted, but I got it saved for study. Won't repost without permission though
merry christmas
Thank u
monke.
Less clothing each drawing, I'm scared of where this is going
There is a pattern to it, you'll be able to guess where this is going if you can guess the next step. Might not be as intuitive though
Thank you. That was the end of the piece, but I think I can probably add just one more panel in there for practice sake

CYBERPUNK LETSGOOO

Simp's โจmagical powerโจ๐ช
Nicee
Absolutely phenomenal.
You saw that @left sparrow ? Do the magic thing
Aaaaaah it looks so good!!
Ty ๐ฅบ๐
I CAN TAKE HIM 
In a fight right?

In a fight right??
I WON'T GIVE UP WITHOUT A FIGHT..........
if wrestling in bed = fighting then yes yes yes 
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nno
K, there's enough room in the bed for three
If u know what I mean


u know, wrestling in bed sounds like a fantastic sport
imma have E&G participate in it



omg this is perfect
Feel free to use it when things got too haywire for our less mature audiences
I love it
PIPE WHAT NOW? 
ayo
@full lava im removing my tidus bonk rights from you
With how often I saw that sticker I thought that was in public domain. Oh well
Here's a rudimentary coloured version.


Time to send it when harsh time comes

Lรญa is my spirit animal tbh
Honestly yeah
I love htis channel so much
Yes
am 'bout to get bonked
its so unhinged sometimes
or thats just me
And I love it 
Iโve done my fair share of thirsting over eugene so itโs fair
After the other guy that got banned, I think it's just you Lรญa, you're the unhinged one
Same ๐ค
guess im next on the list 
Not likely, the other guy is, well, I think he was banned because he picked a bone with one of the mods. I can't recall the whole story though so don't quote me on that.
also, liaz or lia is fine by me, some keyboards might not be able to type the ' so u dont have to copy it 
sounds uh- spicy 
You're probably fine. Do remember though that despite the T&C you need to sign before playing the actual game, there are people here who are not adults (and not under parental guidance), so just be mindful of that
Or do whatever, I'm not a mod or whatnot, and to be very honest, I too skirt that line sometimes myself.
so connecting the dots,,, that banned guy traumatized a child? 
i dont have a single idea what you're talking about, but just calm down
kalm 
She think she Kevin Randleman ๐
I don't think so, that happened a long while ago, but there was a huge argument on this channel somewhere (if you scroll back far enough you'll see huge text blocks)
Yeah, and I can't be bothered remembering old controversies on internet started by some randos. So there's that
Damn tea?
Also hi my beautiful to-be-art moots (I should definitely make art for Afk someday)
Just do it, we'll look forward to see what you cook up
Need to attach to a character first (because Eugavus Liberta and Lucilla donโt count hajsjsj) 
Solise?
I do understand that very well. Most of us here focus on art of a specific character(s) we are attached to, it's what motivates us to draw
Like, if you do an image search on the afk-art thread, you can quickly see everyone's main "speciality"
lmao Eugene is my muse then
im sorry i mean
Neugenes
@drifting quarry exhibit A (they're exceptionally good at it too, can look up and if you feel like it, study in detail)
i have a sketch of this rn
but idk if its too
to handle
IN MY DEFENSE THO I FIND THIS VERY WHOLESOME
so please lemme know if u guys can handle the 
Send
Hit us 
It's a thin line on whether it's considered acceptable in terms of community guidelines, but send it anyway and we'll see.
okay
i did a bit shading so the mods can appreciate the effort and dont bonk me so hard 

convo i had in mind drawing this:
E: Do you know why i like my name?
G: hmm?
E: Cuz it has U in it 
G: Then i like mine better
E: Why?
G: Cause it has US 
AND THEN THEY CUDDLE
bonus- Eugene: "THE UNITED STATES???"
okay this is a reminder that i shouldn't open this channel while I'm on the subway
"The real american dream, I think"
-an european
Hmm......
the European part makes it 10x better
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
@jagged zenith YOU NEED TO SEE THIS
HELLO???? BARK BARK AWOO
AAAAAHHH MEOOOOOOOOW
MEOOOOOOOOW
YOU GAVE ME POWER AND MOTIVATION
HELLO IM IN CHURCH RN HELP????
First thing the channel opens too
Not complaining I love it
Super shy super shy now wait a minute while I make you mine make you mine
USA rizz
YES YOU GET IT

THAT SONG FR FITS
obliterates you with my mind /pos /p
@inner orchid LOOK
PLEASE DRAW MORE OF EM
/POS
THEY LOOKS SO AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Their art is so ๐คค look in search ahshjsj
I WANNA KISS THIS MAN
โGotta unlock 16-1 or VIP 13 to have access to kissing this man ๐คโ๏ธโ
oh glad to see new faces here welcome welcome 
I hate the fact I have BOTH OF THEM in chests but I'm not in 16-1
Real
Your art is so scrumptious, I cannot wait to see more in the future

Totally not downloading some of em as we speak
AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES
OH MY GOD THEY WERE ROOMMATES
Quite literally coughs and glares at their rooms
Gay dads supremacy
Alright, settle down now, we'd hate to lose good talents
I agree with everything you just said your honor
Also arenโt you the guy on Ao3
Yes Iโve written 2 fanfics of gay dads
and actually Iโm a woman ๐๐ค
Everyone always thinks Iโm a guy and itโs funny
Nah I can see the she/her pronounce Dw
Guy is neutral to me but if youโd prefer I stray from that lmk
Nah itโs ok lol
Gay male pfp bet
Maybe
The forum goes apeshit when I post about Eugene and Gavus lmao
Like every other playform knows theyโre gay except the forum
Someone shipped Gavus and Morgana ๐๐๐๐๐
Iโm talking too much about this donโt mine me lmao Iโll continue drawing
Mind*
DIDNT THAT LADY LIKE TURN ON HIM OR SMTH BC HE WAS AGAINST KILLING THE KIDS
Imagine being shipped with the very woman who told you sheโd kill your two kids
They want everything to be straight cause theyโre homophobic
If itโs a man and a woman it doesnโt matter if itโs toxic, itโs straight and thatโs all that matters to them
While Gavus and Eugene are flirting and perfect for each other, that simply doesnโt matter because itโs two guys. Guys can only be friends
I love sleeping in the same bed with my bestie ๐ฅฐ
Surprisingly even Reddit
No thatโs so me actually
The forum is afk arena Facebook basically
Old mfs
My brain is hyperfixated on Gavus and Eugene so I think of nothing else
so much so that Iโve looked into everything about them and this emoji is called โgagene whisperโ meaning their official ship name is gagene
Literally me rn (reason why I joined + I actually started using an Ao3 acc for it)
Well Iโm American so as per US law we have to translate every overseas title by skewing it entirely so itโs Eugavus ๐คโ๏ธ
The top goes in the front and Gavus is the top cause he pins him to the ground and ties him up ๐คโ๏ธ
Iโm so gonna get banned
Atp Iโll just say I drew something very naughty of them on Twitter
At least youโre not as downbad as female jjk fans
Banned actually changed my mind cuz Iโm lillith in disguise /j
Crying
How could you. The official afk arena Instagram liked this comment tho I thought yโall were on my side :((
โI love gay dadsโ
โAnd we love you!, valued customerโ
Idec if they put gay dads to get clout. I love gay dads
Lol
Like, really, please consider the audience. There's a time and place for everything, but don't get into so much detail talking about the "behind the scene" activities of the awakened homo couple.
Please stand by while we prepare a replacement for the Tidusbonk sticker
it's gone??
The original creator Ramb removed the right to use from Snek (who's been the one consistently using it). Not sure about their policy on others but I myself will refrain from using it
ah i respect that
I have my own version, but it needs a significant rework imo
Say, @crystal pagoda ,thought of doing one yourself?
i could give it a try, since i just found out how to do it thanks to afkjourney
i just need an idea
Raine bonk?
I mean, Raine bonking someone. Mine is very predictable given my tendencies.
AHAAA
That's it, Raine bonking Mirael?
SURE
Or Mehira? Because if anyone needs a bonk...
I'll make some sketches and we'll see then
I love gay dads too 
is he mewing
For a second I immediately defaulted to โomg heโs lookmaxxingโ
Delicious edit tho
idk bout that but he definitely be meowing 
its Neugenes!! I just haddddd to do it
It was your duty it was calling
how about something like this? it's hard to simplify my stile for a sticker, plus the canvas it's so small rip
Lmao yes please
I'd just go with a full size A4 paper and let people figure out themselves lmao. Looking great
Nice
what do we think
Niceeeee
@sinful dragon ghost ping
is she- enjoying the bonk? 
It's perfect
Wasn't able to commit to one idea, so I think I'll just do a preface for them

Beautiful
Lol
the illusion of free choice (they all hurt the same)
also what is gwyneth holding? I'll make sure to stay away from her
vacuum bonker 3000
ah hell naahh
A thunder hammer from 40k. Because of course she's getting the heaviest hitting power weapon of them all
ah yes that is scary
They don't all hurt exactly the same. Although similar results could be achieved with enough repetition.
Unless it's Gwyneth coming after you. You will cease to exist in one blow
Speaking of which...Jolttea, come back here

Color it 
I hold hostage the rest of ramb's emojis
I'm only familiar with Morrow, Queen and the bonk one
so we have emoji lore? where are they now
Recognised smug Scarlet, and Queen, and Morrow, but haven't seen the others here
