If you’re here from the actual event…
Nyello 👋 I’m NightAuctor onsite, AKA a-flyleaf here on GitHub and over on deviantArt, and this is my first year doing ArtFight; might not attack often but here for a good time B) My main goal is to draw for people; no obligation to attack back!
…buuut if you do, I wanna see how you interpret the designs, and do NOT care about accuracy to the reference. Some are even vague/variable on purpose ;V
art usage & character permissions
Art Usage
TL;DR Do what you want with my attacks, just link back! I’d like to share yours here too, but will ask first.
- Feel free to do whatever you want with my attacks for you, including edits and/or reuploads to compilation galleries like Toyhou.se! Just credit me as the original artist, preferably through deviantART.
- Likewise, I reserve the right to post attacks on my own platforms (currently only dA and here, my website).
- I’d also like to display art for me on this page, when the event’s done! If you haven’t indicated permissions on your profile, expect me to ask in a comment or message. I credit and link back to the original whenever possible, with a preference for public profiles; if you have multiple links, I’ll credit them all unless you indicate otherwise.
- Alternatively, if you don’t want a piece reposted for any reason (no need to disclose why), please let me know! I’ll make sure I have explicit confirmation to rehost anything here before actually doing so, and link to actual onsite ArtFight pages so people can still see art that isn’t displayed here.
Character “Permissions”
| topic | heck yeah | heck nah |
| multiple characters | drawn with your own characters | drawn with other peoples’ characters |
| design modifications | not using the eyedropper (pls no whitewashing tho*), outfit changes, and basically any other vatiation | pretty much* nothing, go nuts |
| body horror/gore | anything besides → | guts/innards (gory or not), nail trauma, anything realistically-rendered |
| nudity & sexual themes | eh nah not with these guys | basically anything on the linked page |
| eyestrain | bright colors, optical illusions, chromatic aberration, and animation thereof unless → | rapid flashing and/or strobe effects |
| other filters | drug use/references, themes of self-harm/suicide**, common phobias | open self-harm injuries**, bodily waste |
*I assume good faith here, dw if you’re not experienced with darker skintones or there’s funky colors/lighting; I just don’t want a tan character with dark hair colored as a #FFFFFF-skinned blonde, y’feel?
**ArtFight uses the following examples (artist credits not given): open self-harm wounds and suicidal imagery (specifically a noose, but nothing graphic). Would prefer not to see the former, but the latter is alright with me 👍
Also, as a general disclaimer, I don’t care how my characters are drawn. This is more a list of things, based on ArtFight’s rating system, that I don’t want shown directly to me. Like, if you wanna draw something in the “heck nah” box then go for it, I don’t judge; I just don’t want to receive it :V
Thanks for checking out my page, don’t forget to stretch your wrists, and have fun :D
If you’re reading this in any other context…
For those unaware, Art Fight is a month-long art trading competition, based around drawing other participants’ characters. I first heard about it years ago and have been dragging my heels on jumping in, for various reasons which I may or may not write a blog post about, but in 2021 I finally decided to take the plunge.
Predictably, though, I don’t care for the site’s formatting. And I’m vaguely aware it’s prone to downtime, especially in the first few days. So what the heck, figured I’d post everything on my own site, both for utility and long-term archival. Thus, here we are!
