I'm not exactly a graphic artist, but I ended up creating some things in the last few months for functional reasons. I will post here the banners that I created, as well as the prizes for the games, so that future generations know that I passed by here. I created this art (above) for my fanfic "Untie My Silence Knot". I created the banner above for the award for best artist in Germies 2020. (I am very proud of this banner). I created the banner above for the best profile award. It was not as beautiful as the best artist, I think. But I really liked the contrast of the colors, and how the character seems to come out of the paper. I wanted to do something inspired by the banner I got from Terry the year before, which I particularly liked a lot. [/div] Above something I'm a little ashamed of. It was ugly and uninspired. But I still did it, so it's here. I liked the result of the award above. It took a bit of work, but I found it funny and appropriate. Above is the Spyfall award that I am most proud to have done. It was hard work (I'm still crawling in photoshop) but I managed to portray what I was imagining, and being able to put exactly what you imagined on the computer screen including the phrases, the fonts and the colors, is a very good feeling. I wanted to be able to do something like this with my own hands (In fact drawing something). But I can not. [/div] Above is a prior art for a Tale fanfic that went the other way, not combining much with the illustration. But what can I do? I felt like doing something like that, and I did. It's not great, but it's there.

Thanks for posting the compilation! You said you didn't like it, but I like the coloring on the TWW illustration. I love the last illustration as well. Did you make it yourself, or find it? I can't quite tell if it was drawn by hand or digitally.

I imagined what the cover art of the MisterM fanfic, called Black Ink, could be like. But I ended up turning it into a better profile decoration banner, because I couldn't work on three arts at the same time ... The idea was to show Esmé sitting on a chair that represents the beast, but at the same time, Esmé was supposed to merge the beast, and at the same time, it would appear to be a portrait made of black ink, and at the same time it would appear that everything it would dissolve in black ink, but I think I dreamed too much in my pretensions, and it ended up being like that. This is the Banner I made for Sherryann. I wanted to represent how I sometimes feel ... Like a freak, and she, like Kit in this scene, comes to calm the hearts by telling us that we deserve better.

I really like your Black-Ink-inspired illustration. I haven't finished the story yet, but the illustration intrigues me: it shows someone sitting happily, though not obliviously, in the jaws of danger.
I'm touched by your banner for Most Compassionate, too. I didn't know the specific significance behind your choice to use Kit and the freaks.

I absolutely love your Black Ink illustration, Optimism is my Phil-osophy. There's something very Geiger-esque about it that I can't quite describe, and Esme's face is simultaneously beautiful and chilling. Well done!

In a voluntary service to help the new fanfic of MisterM I created a custom art involving the symbol of VFD in flames. There were several samples, slightly different from each other.

I think it is time to ask, since it seems to be a detail that nobody noticed ... Can anyone see an inverted question mark hidden in this image? It is like a question mark in a mirror.

Yup! I can see it.

I decided to mirror the image to make it less obvious. But I thought someone would wonder why the beast's teeth are not symmetrical.

I saw a normal question mark.

I saw a normal question mark. Are you looking at the beast's teeth?

No. I saw it at the very left of the picture. But you’re right, the beast’s teeth do form an inverted question mark.
