New Mascot! I have been designing her for a while.

This is one of her two forms. This one (not sure still) is called "Istra". To sum it up is an ancient forest guardian, lorekeeper of stories and a wandering artist. Has a smol owl as a familiar (called Red).

My d&d boy Silas is almost an archdruid! He has been through A Lot but has come away more grounded and centered and ready for whatever the future holds.

I keep forgetting when these days are, but if you're ace, you're cool

May I present to you: My half-elf lady named Kresswyn "Sunder" Zaider, aka, Sunny. Bomber Alchemist with her lizard alchemical familiar (named Slag). This one is for an Alkenstar campaign that I'm actually playing (Pathfinder 2e). And I'm very happy because I missed the system and the Kingmaker campaign got cancelled, BUT, yeh. I'll probably upload the other character that I have in a "Carrion Crown" campaign as well. And Yes, I used Kim kitsuragi (Disco Elysium) as a BIG reference/inspiration for her. Also this I call "RDR2" style because I like the visual impact of it. Play RDR2 If your device allow it. Recommended 100%

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!!
