super cool that you make atcs, I think the art-form is seriously underrated

haha! thank you so much manly-unicorn ;0; <3 I do love them so much. They are so much fun to create and collect. I wish the art card community was bigger ;0; There's not many people to trade with now-a-days ;-; I remember going to the art fair as a kid and finding people there with collections of art cards that they made, and you could trade and buy them to add to your collection. They were all so beautiful ;3;

I love them too ^^ Oh really? that sounds amazing o:
I haven't found a way to collect them because it isn't popular here and I don't really like most of the atcs I've seen from online swap groups. Also I don't really make traditional art anymore but it'd be fun to print out limited digital art in atc size and trade them. I just wish it were more accessible. Maybe there could be a way to swap limited digital atcs and then get them printed? I don't think something like that exists but I'd be super interested in something like that c:

OH yeah printed atcs are called "ACEO"s "Art Card Editions and Originals" usually if you see "ACEO" that means its a print or a multiple of a limited set. ;> could search for those. But yeah, I found that I can only really trade with people if I join a monthly atc partner-pairing group (where you get paired with a person and you each draw atcs of eachother's characters and then trade them) OR just by following artists who also do ATCs and they'll often post ones for sale, or you can offer to do a trade with them.

Okay I gotta start this off with- WOW! I've been thinking this since I first saw the lines but man you really made Helios look like the god of fire! You fundamentally understand how to draw organic shapes and curves, giving a pattern to the nonsense shapes that exist within both a glorious mane of hair and fire. This is really amazingly dynamic, with the movement of his mane and the angle his face is at, I know how the camera has moved/is moving. It's amazing. And with Ultimoth 's colors? This whole image just pops! The variations in the orange/red/yellows really adds a LOT to this. Beautifully done you two!

;0;!!! Thanks so much noblesir! <3 The face angle was definitely a challenge. I'm still working on doing taum faces AT NORMAL ANGLES, let alone dramatic ones. I'm so glad you liked it tho, it means a lot. And the hair was such a fun part to line. I really wanna practice hair more and work on making it more interesting and dynamic. So I'm glad the hair stuck out to you. ;3 Also the little stray white strands of hair that Ulti did really added a lot to the piece. I think it added a lot of interest to the hair ^3^ I'll have to find a way to do that same effect traditionally. It's just so great ;0;

You did fantastically at the angle on this, I'm still amazed! You didn't make it look unnatural at all, though it would be easy to do so. This piece is glorious, and I look forward to seeing the next version of it =3
