Quackity is running out of people to count on. When the rest of the world is against him, his only solace is someone who drenches his ever-changing world in familiarity. Who else is better than the person who always knew how to make him laugh? Well, before they went their separate ways, of course.

my contribution to @dsmprarepairbb! please check out the very lovely art piece by the very talented @sugarnies :)

And here is their fic!

[dsmprarepairbb]

And for the @dsmprarepairbb we have:

Place Your Bets

Pairing: Captain Puffy/Technoblade

Rating: Explicit

Assassin AU, royalty AU, arranged marriage, political plots and schemes

The Snowcovered Empire and the Eggpire have been at war, a war which has finally, seemingly, reached its end. As part of peace negotiations, the Eggpire has insisted that one of the emperors take one of the Eggpire’s noblewomen as a wife, signifying unity and prosperity to come.

Which would be great, if anyone believed that that was actually what was going on.

Summary:

Dream had known the moment he saw the rose bushes that Techno had grown them for him; they were so different from the hardy, resilient dandelions that he preferred, finicky and difficult and often rewarded the gardener with a prick of a thorn. There's probably a dumb metaphor in there, thought Dream. or techno's favorite flower is dandelions. dream loves roses. it's something that stays constant despite the chaos and complications that surround them. the other constant is the feelings they have for each other but it never seems to be the right time. will it ever be? dandelions grow in the arctic, can roses?

this is my fic for the @dsmprarepairbb! consider it my c!dnb manifesto <3 <3 i hope everyone enjoys it.

Posting week officially began on Friday, so keep an eye out for people's works! Any posted on Tumblr will be reblogged here with the tag #works, while those on AO3 can be found in this collection!

Thank you so much to all those who participated!! As I've said, this was the first event like this I've ever done, so I've been a bit of a mess. I greatly appreciate everyone's patience and understanding. Thank you to all participants, both those who finished and those who didn't, for your hard work!

I would like I give a special shout-out to my amazing wonderful fantastic beautiful and exceptional mods!! This would not have happened without them. They were so on top of everything that I only got to do the introductory stuff for one person, and it was just because I happened to catch it lol.

The fantastic mods who made this all possible are:

HOW TO GLAZE YOUR WORK WITHOUT A GOOD PC(or on mobile)/TIPS TO MAKE IT LESS VISIBLE

Glaze your work online on:

Cara app. It requires you to sign up but it is actually a good place for your portfolio. Glazing takes 3 minutes per image and doesn't require anything but an internet connection compared to 20-30 minutes if your pc doesn't have a good graphic card. There IS a daily limit of 9 pictures tho. Glazed art will be sent to you after it's done, by email. It took me 30 minutes to glaze 9 images on a default setting. Cara app is also a space SPECIFICALLY for human artists and the team does everything in their power to ensure it stays that way.

WebGlaze. This one is a little bit more complicated, as you will need to get approval from the Glaze team themselves, to ensure you're not another AI tech bro(which, go fuck yourself if you are). You can do it through their twitter, through the same Cara app(the easiest way) or send them an email(takes the longest). For more details read on their website.

Unfortunately there are no ways that I know of to use Nightshade YET, as it's quite new. Cara.app definitely works on implementing it into their posting system tho!

Now for the tips to make it less visible(the examples contain only nightshade's rendering, sorry for that!):

Heavy textures. My biggest tip by far. Noise, textured brushes or just an overlay layer, everything works well. Preferably, choose the ones that are "crispy" and aren't blurred. It won't really help to hide rough edges of glaze/nightshade if you blur it. You can use more traditional textures too, like watercolor, canvas, paper etc. Play with it.

Colour variety. Some brushes and settings allow you to change the colour you use just slightly with every stroke you make(colour jitter I believe?). If you dislike the process of it while drawing, you can clip a new layer to your colour art and just add it on top. Saves from the "rainbow-y" texture that glaze/nightshade overlays.

Gradients(in combination with textures work very well). Glaze/nightshade is more visible on low contrast/very light/very dark artworks. Try implementing a simple routine of adding more contrast to your art, even to the doodles. Just adding a neutral-coloured bg with a darker textured gradient already is going to look better than just plain, sterile digital colour.

And finally, if you dislike how glaze did the job, just try to glaze/shade it again. Sometimes it's more visible, sometimes it's more subtle, it's just luck. Try again, compare, and choose the one you like the most. REMEMBER TO GLAZE/SHADE AFTER YOU MADE ALL THE CHANGES, NOT BEFORE!!

If you have any more info feel free to add to this post!!
