My entry for @spicyicymeloncat 's DTIYS.

In the interest of keeping things fair to the contest, no assets were reused for this render. In other words, all modeling, rigging, shading, and texturing was done independently from anything I've done in the past so as not to have an unfair advantage. The Zane rig used here is a brand new one. Nonetheless, if the render is still not considered a valid entry despite this due to being 3D, I will not mind.

Unshaded version with a plain background, in case the original is visually confusing.

Aww yes, it’s a DTIYS

(This is a repost because the tags might be broken and I’m testing whether it was just that post or something)

Yee thanks for 300 followers :]!! I've always had fun doing other people's dtiys, and I wanted to do one of my own!!

(Sorry if the colours are too bright, I'm putting a desaturated edit under the cut as well as a version without the background)

~~~

There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places (and potentially drawing requests for any runners up!)

1st - fully shaded drawing of an oc or characterof your choice (doesn't have to be Ninjago)

2nd and 3rd (they get same prize bc yeah) colored drawing of an oc or character of choice (doesn't have to be Ninjago)

(Further details will be discussed with winners, warning, I'm not sure how fast l'Il do the rewards so we'll see how it goes )

~~~

Deadline is 26th of October - so two weeks from now!

(Might change depending on what happens lol)

Explanation on the actual drawing + extra images below cut

Low saturated version and non background versions.

So the image is from my Ninjago s11 rewrite, and if you're confused by the plant pot then I suggest checking the end of this post (read from corruption). That was totally not a shameless ploy to lure you into my rewrite aha, but I thought the dtiys should be relevant to something on le blog!

I don't think there's an easy way of explaining the plant plot apart from reading the rewrite, but essentially, in the rewrite, Zane is fully conscious when becoming the ice emperor, but after experiencing a lot of emotional turmoil, he resorts to trying to keep him and everyone safe by freezing everyone and have their consciousness roam an empty void in their minds. Zane's innocent feelings are here, whilst the ice emperor acts as a cold exterior shell that hunts for other people in the realm to "protect". The plant pot holds a frosted over sapling for a traveller's tree, which Zane had been tending to inside his mind (and it's like a metaphor for spring or something). Yeah!
