I'm done with my art and I'm really happy with what I could contribute. Post here if you need some help finishing yours in the next 7 hours.

Started a little flower garden around other peoples art to fill in the blanks. Negotiated a border with the void by letting my grass wither. Trying to reach the butterfly for now and then see where I can go from there. I know somebody else is doing the same in the bottom right corner.

Cyn (the head bottom right) could use some background, but I'm busy with the Furry corner. Do you think you can come up with a nice background for her?

You have some color ideas or should I just go for it?

[–] green_copper@kbin.earth 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't really have an idea. Try something which gives her a dark aura. But if it fits not, this is no problem. Do what you think looks good :)

Thank you much in advance <3

Either same red as her eyes or mauve (not dark, but it goes with her hair). I'll start with an outline, but I'm not drawing over others' pixels.

edit: I'm going with maroon, darker than the eyes.

How do you feel about changing the purple in the text at the bottom to purple so it's lighter and easier to see? I did a test on the top of the T, see how you like it vs the dark purple.

I think it looks good; approved.

I now made a template for a checkerboard background. You will find it on Cotemplate.
