Art Fight 2025, traditonal art & WIP (TS NSFW)

Art dump for this summer, mostly traditional art!

1) A redraw for my dear friend Kobra of a traditional badge I had drawn for him in 2017. Unfortunately the badge had ended up in the void where all lost badges go during conventions, so I finally redrew it for his birthday. Loved working on it, even though I noticed only after I started painting that my alcohol marker proof ink wasn't waterproof... And I had already coloured everything with watercolour pencils that look awful if not painted over. Luckily alcohol markers worked, and I used this technique later in an art fight piece!

2) I have no idea what this is. I was at a summer cottage by the lake with a beautiful view, and it was raining.. So I just took out watercolours, splashed some colour on with my eyes closed, let it dry and tried to see what the splashes looked like. To me were a horse caught by a giant moray eel kind of a monster. So this was just fun and enjoying painting/drawing without a purpose. I hadn't used watercolours in a long time either, so it was nice to try shading and patterns with them. :3

3) Art fight revenge on hitodama! Weary was such an interesting character I wanted to try my hand at drawing them~ Watercolours and brush ink pen. By the way, she made a wonderful small animation of Airam smiling, you can check it out here.

4) Art fight revenge on Lloxie! Kuna seemed so adorable, so I really wanted to draw him~ Watercolour and ink brush pen. Lloxie drew an adorable piece of my fursona doing what she loves, check it out here!

5) Art fight attack on Mama_Grem! I wanted to do one more attack before the month was over, and I wanted to draw a dinosaur! Something else than the usual carnivores too.. And that's how I found this sweet little thing, Pickle! <3 Unfortunately the paper that had worked just fine on my previous attacks decided that it's not suitable for watercolours after all, and the ink wanted to start spreading around too, ha.. :')

6) Art fight revenge on Tuonenkalla! Tuonenkalla had sneaked an attack on me last year on the very last day, and I noticed it only this year when I opened AF! I had to revenge, of course! Tuonenkalla had so many intriguing characters that I had a difficult time deciding who to draw, but... when I read Roquem's lore I got so fascinated by the character I knew I had to draw him! Please check out his character page! Colouring this one turned out to be such a mess because I had run out of lighter colours in both my Copic and watercolour pencil sets, and in the end I couldn't get a single white gel pen to work so I couldn't add those fancy shiny details... u_u

7) Art fight attack on Linnykit! Couldn't resist drawing our boys Lei and Rain together, it's been way too long! <3 Done in black ink, watercolour pencils and copic markers.

8) Art fight attack on Sivsii! I wanted to draw a long snout, and that's how I found this beautiful character~

9) NSFW mini comic of Tauski and Airam. This is an anonymous commission I hope to finish next month. It's not canon, but maybe one day Tauski will be brave enough to take Airam to his parents' place.. Where her Finnish mom naturally has a sauna (Finns don't do well without a sauna, it's their natural habitat). It gets quite heated though.. The climax hasn't been sketched yet, I have to think of a comfortable pose on the hard wooden sauna benches xD
