ArtFight Showcase

character roster

Names link to ArtFight character pages.

Zero, “sawface”, and the Flight Rising catch-all are long-term mainstays. The others are cycled out after a round, but art of them is still welcome! I’m just less attached to them &

Zero

references:
info

A technicolor lizardy-friemd that I’ve had since 2012, and his design has never ever ever been perfectly consistent but I have fun with it—and so have other people, with things like making his dot markings look like extra eyes (by the lovely starmoths!) and adding glowy effects. And now I invite y’all to do the same >;3

Doesn’t have much lore but I roleplayed him briefly, and here’s the gist:

  • created in some sort of laboratory for unknown reasons; wholly organic, with no supernatural powers
  • naturally curious, playful, and trusting; skittish in threatening situations
  • basically just wanders around exploring the world, sticking his snout where it doesn’t belong
  • would probably love to meet you(r character/s)!
  • no seriously he’s like horse-sized or bigger he will give rides to the little ones

transcription of the 2021 (last) sketchdump’s end note: “as you can see I pay very little attention to detail and hex color in this design. the most important aspects are the shape and general palette; variations welcome (+encouraged)!”

the wings and feather patterns especially keep changing every other drawing ¯\_( ᐛ )_/¯

“sawface”

references:
info

A weird monster with an inconsistent number of eyes, limbs, and teeth. As of 2022 the mouths can move like a can opener winged corkscrew. Very pointy, very long; go nuts :V.V:

additional note(s)

Sometimes appears with a human “host.” What’s their deal? Your guess is good as mine!

Flight Rising catch-all

Dragon neopets is my passion. Art of any of my silly little lizards would make my day :>

additional note(s)

If you’re not familiar with Flight Rising, no worries! Treat these guys like generic dragon characters. I am not fussed about the details; please feel free to simplify.

Other than Zero, ignore the “fandragons [and] non-hibernating lizards” links. Thank you!

genuinely have no idea what this thing is, but the ears are based on the bat-eared fox. different interpretations welcome; you may draw them as traffic cones if you wish

“wolf-skull”

info

This was supposed to be a minor character in one of my projects, except I like the design a disproportionate amount /o\ I’m still not 100% sold on how they’ll appear in-story, but I wanted to add someone new to the roster for 2022 so here

  • A cocky adult human perpetually seen in a canid skull mask (only covers upper half). Sometimes wields a baseball bat.
  • Showy and confident. Talks the talk about teamwork, but would turn on an ally without regrets if deemed necessary. Likes winning, despises weakness, and invigorated by chaos.
  • In other words this is the person in Among Us who’s yelling “sus” at everyone at the slightest provocation.
  • Exists in a barren, sometimes-hazy hellscape that looks something like this.

optional: Also running around the setting are horrible rabbit-monsters (direct image link for those without deviantArt accounts). Feel free to draw “wolf-skull” going all Batter on one. Or taking a selfie with one. Or… whatever you please, really~

additional note(s)

I guess you can take off the mask if you have an idea for it?? I genuinely have no clue what the rest of the face looks like. Go wild \o/

Old designs. No story, no gods no masters.

…okay maybe a little bit of story–

  • Features a character named Holly and/or Lucien, a sardonic waiter who gets some kind of design change and also has a demon mode. Lives alone in a small apartment with at least one houseplant.
  • There’s also a fella who for some reason I remember as being called “the judge.” Judge of what, you may ask? Great question! But the job entails keeping an eye on Holly/Lucien. The judge is generally more enthusiastic about this than the one being watched.
  • The judge also has a younger brother. Bro has one of judge’s eyes. I don’t know how this works, either.

That’s it, that’s all I got.

there was a concept of a plan…!! seriously though just go nuts. they are mostly here to give y’all a human option.
