posted these in my last journal but i thought id share them on their as well for simplicity’s sake
artfight specific page decorations (thumbnails, pixels, gifs, etc)
general page decor (backgrounds, pixels, pride flags, etc)
also dropping a link to my own profile as well if anyone would like to follow ^_^ i’m team tragedy this year! ignore the fact i havent redecorated yet
as always, here’s a link to my profile. still in the process of tweaking stuff while i prep for this years fight
HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU PARTICIPATED?
this’ll be my seventh year!
HAS YOUR TEAM EVER WON?
my win ratio is terrible, the only years i’ve won have been bloom and stardust
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE PAST THEME ON AF?
several of the themes i wasn’t even present for go pretty hard, like day vs night
WHAT TEAM / THEME ARE YOU HOPING FOR THIS YEAR?
i never get to this prior to the theme announcement, but im happy with them! the first 3 team split definitely caught me off guard in a good way
DO YOU DO:
Friendly fire? — yes, but these aren’t a priority for me. i’ll do them if there’s a revenge i want to do or a character i just can’t resist attacking
Revenges? — i try to! i’m definitely not a “revenge every single person that attacks me” kinda guy, but i do make the effort where im able
Chains? — no. i’ve only done it once with a friend
WHATS YOUR FAVOURITE THING TO SEE IN ATTACKS AGAINST YOU?
i love it when people draw my characters doing things i wouldn’t have really considered depicting myself. some of yall get so creative with your posing and such, im jealous!
ON A SCALE OF 1 - 10, HOW MUCH WILL YOU BE PARTICIPATING THIS YEAR?
i’m gonna try to shoot for an honest 8, but time will tell if that’s realistic for me
WHAT TEAM ARE YOU PICKING THIS YEAR?
after mulling it over for several days, i think ive landed on tragedy. for some reason every person i know is picking comedy or mystery?!
WHAT CHARACTERS DO YOU PRIORITIZE IN ATTACKS, IF ANY?
just anything that speaks to my specific tastes. also my friends ocs ofc. last year i tried to attack every person that had uploaded a character i designed and then sold as an adopt, but i didnt make it very far. that’ll be an objective for me this year as well
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE CHARACTER TO GET ATTACKS AGAINST?
honestly callyn and itka are my favorites ^^; of course i LOVE all the art i get every year, regardless of the character. but cal and itka are particularly special to me so those attacks really make my day
PAGE THEME?
my profile is still decked out with fossil decor because i haven’t sat down to redo it yet. they did finally add html coding to art fight which is nice, but im hesitant to try it out since ive heard its buggy (and what little editing i’ve done already has proven this to be true). i don’t intend to go extremely hard on the team theme for my profile this year, but we’ll see. if YOU are looking to get some decorating done, ive put together some resources again. you can find some af-friendly html codes here and some page decor here
GOALS FOR THIS YEAR?
getting my battle ratio up would be awesome. doing more attacks in general as well. last year i managed 9, which tbf to myself is a HUGE improvement over the year before that (only 4, yeesh), but i still like to think i could do better. i unfortunately had a bunch of unfinished attacks i never managed to get out. i just wanna draw more!!
but on like a personal growth level? playing around with composition, backgrounds, and even animation would be huge for me. i guess we’ll see!
finally updated my personal/comms server after ages of sitting on it. hop in if you’d like! i don’t take comms often, but it’s the first place that gets notified when i do. adopts are also always posted first there. but mostly we just hang out
MY ARTFIGHT PROFILE
here’s a link to my profile, but im still in the process of uploading a few characters
HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU PARTICIPATED?
6, my first year was 2020
HAS YOUR TEAM EVER WON?
bloom in 2022 and stardust last year
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE PAST THEME ON AF?
stardust vs seafoam went crazy ngl but im not usually picky
WHAT TEAM / THEME ARE YOU HOPING FOR THIS YEAR?
they’ve already been announced, im fine with them. the only themes i adamantly did not want to get picked were glimmer vs gloom and creation vs destruction
DO YOU DO:
Friendly fire? — yes always, and i’m excited to see they increased the percentage
Revenges? — yes but not strictly. please don’t attack me expecting a revenge ^^; i try my hardest but the time gets away from me
Chains? — i have these listed as “no” on my profile, and that’s mostly true. i think id only do them for a very close friend and even then it’s unlikely
WHATS YOUR FAVOURITE THING TO SEE IN ATTACKS AGAINST YOU?
i like it when people take creative liberties with my characters, so long as it stays respectful to the core design. it’s fun seeing what others come up with
ON A SCALE OF 1 - 10, HOW MUCH WILL YOU BE PARTICIPATING THIS YEAR?
i always shoot for 10 and wind up with like a 4. i try my best but with life stuff or sometimes art block it’s hard to say
WHAT TEAM ARE YOU PICKING THIS YEAR?
#fossilsweep
WHAT CHARACTERS DO YOU PRIORITIZE IN ATTACKS, IF ANY?
i mostly do pokémon, ponies, or other things for interests i share with whoever im attacking. for art fight specifically i almost always draw only animals since my motivation to draw people varies. i like characters with lots of colors too
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE CHARACTER TO GET ATTACKS AGAINST?
i’m happy to get attacks of any of my ocs
PAGE THEME?
i have my page decked out with fossil stuff rn, but getting there was a bit of a challenge. da (which is what i usually use for page decorating) was kind of barren of good rock themed decor? lol ? toyhouse came in clutch tho. if it helps anyone i put together a big folder miscellaneous of art fight related things. hope it helps you as much as it did me lol
GOALS FOR THIS YEAR?
i really just want to do better than i did last year more than anything else. getting my battle ratio up would be nice lol. i’ve also had an idea in mind for a couple years of drawing one character per eeveelution… i did a few if these a couple years back but i think i only made it to 3 before i quit lol. would be nice to try that again i bookmarked a bunch of characters and i have a ton of ideas so i guess we’ll see.
idk if one of these exists yet but i thought it’d be fun to do! feel free to copy paste this blank template
