Thank you so much to everyone who participated in this year’s gift exchange! As always, your creations were absolutely wonderful and you never fail to blow me away with your talent and creativity! To find your name in...
Okay, so this post is a little later than what I would’ve wanted, but I’ve had a busy week 😛 I’m also a little tired, so, only one cat pic this time 😛 You’re getting plenty from Cadvent, anyway...

VIPER’S PROFILE PIC CONTEST
I, your fearless viper, am resigning from Picrew. Yeah, yeah, I know, I promised a revolution and complete takeover of the world and universe, but the pic’s just kind of bothering me. It doesn’t look like my purrsona as much as I’d like it to and frankly I miss the purple background. I am, however, due for a new profile pic 😛
That’s where you come in!
From now until next Wednesday, July 8th, you’ve got the opportunity to draw a profile pic for me! There are prizes 😛
1st PLACE: A full picture, 2000×2000 dimensions, with background, shading, and lighting. Involves up to four characters in the scene, all of which must be cats. 😛 OR: one of the other prizes (does not exclude that prize’s winner from getting the same kind ofprize.)
2nd PLACE: A full-body picture, with shading and lighting, of ONE character. Character must be a cat. This is for your own good; you haven’t seen me draw anything that isn’t a cat for good reason. XD OR: a third-place prize (does not exclude that prize’s winner from getting the same kind of prize.)
3rd PLACE: A head-shot picture, with background, shading, and lighting, of a character who is either a cat or a bird. 🙂
CONTEST RULES:
1. Picture must be 800×800. 😛
2. My ref sheet was done by the wonderful Kat: https://imgur.com/a/1ek54A2
3. Try to make the ears a little straighter than in the ref sheet, as my purrsona has changed a bit, and I now have a gray muzzle as well. Please also make the color scheme a bit lighter than the actual ref sheet, so they stick out from the lines when viewed as a tiny picture 🙂
4. The background’s your choice, but I’d prefer it to be a deep purple similar to my last profile pic. I love purple. 😛
that’s pretty much it! 😀 hope this all makes sense and I encourage you to give it a shot even if you’re under some kind of misconception that you aren’t good at drawing. we’re all on an art journey here and I often don’t think my art looks good either. <3
love ya guys! 😀
Hmmmmm perhaps I shall give it a try if I ever complete my five other unfinished drawings 😛
moooood
Ahhhhh, I’m going to try 😛
Man I reeeeallyy wish i had my digital art paaaaaaaaaaaad 😛
<333
yayyyyyy i’ll try and fit this in between my owed art and artfight 😛 oh gosh a gray muzzle viper are you getting old 😉
haha not that quickly i hope XD nah, the gray muzzle is so the mouth can be seen a bit easier 😛
woaha
your purrsona is like a combo of Crowfeather and Nigthcloud 😮
never thought about it that way XD
I’ll join! 😀
I’m starting the picture right now! 😉
<333
Oh no
I want to but I do I feel like it 😛
I’ll let you know 😛
hey, no pressure peb <3
Id like to join!
Yay! Reply with your finished picture whenever you’re done <3
heres my entry 😀 kinda weird but oh well XD
aw thank you! <3
ooooo very interesting…
maybe i will tryyyy hmmmmmmmm do you have a due date for this? because if not im gonna try finish some requests first 😛
the due date is next wednesday but if you have a WIP or something it could be longer 😛
Does anyone know if Scratch is 800×800 😛
I’m being serious tho.
i’m not actually sure but if you’ve done it before and it fits into a profile pic fairly well you can use it! 🙂
Testing now
Okey-dokey! <3
It depends if you would say this is a good size.
Oh yeah that’s fine! 😀

PINE oh my goshhhh i love it <333
how can you draw those snakes so well?!
the snakes that I draw look like they’ve just swallowed a couple eggs 😛
we love all snakeys here
wait a second the size is 800×800?
…you know i normally work on a 4000×3000 canvas?
this is going to be like pixel art to me the drop in quality will kill me 😛
okay here’s what i’m gonna say <333
FOR ALL FUTURE PEOPLE READING THIS
if the drawings you usually make fit into the gravatar box as profile pics just fine, make them that way! i just based it off the size of the pic i've had for a while so there's no sweat in overlooking that guideline 😛
also what in the name of starclan XD I work on like a 2000x2000 canvas for my larger art; your attention to detail must be off the charts 😀
I’m terrible at drawing but I’ll wave at the sidelines!
*waves back* 😀
Does it have to be 800 x 800?
I’m using Google Canvas, something that doesn’t let me choose the dimensions (or see them). -_-
800×800 is just a guideline! FOR FUTURE PEOPLES: If you have a program that doesn’t tell you the dimensions, it’s perfectly okay! 🙂
thanks thanks thanks
welcome welcome welcome 😛
here’s my current (might submit a different one later 😛 ) submission

*flash backs to too many bad memories of viper and the recent purrs*
hey those are wonderful memories
Blackie
I freaking love this so much
I am hitting pause on my other projects to draw Vipey a profile pic cuz i really want to
problem is, i’m awesome at traditional and prooooooooooooobably suck at digital
let’s see how this goes
hm, would you like to have a specific expression for the profile pic or position the cat is in cuz it would be super helpful to know what you’d like. also, maybe if you want a headshot, half body, or full body as ur profile pic!
i am definitely not doing this cuz i have no talent putting my own imagination into art so i need ur help with what u want um1. if you feel like traditional is better suited to your skill set, definitely do traditional! you should be happy and comfortable when doing your art, and i’m not going to change that <3
2. So I'm definitely going for a headshot, so it's easier to see from a distance. As for expression, happy or sly would probably be my first impression, followed by solemn or joking if you don't like either of the earlier options. 😛
mood, i have trouble with making stuff up for commissions if details haven’t been provided XDTHANK YOU VIPER
I SHALL SKETCH AND THEN DRAW DIGITALLY CUZ
it’s easier for coloring and lighting and suchI WANT TO TRY ITit might take a long time as i always do for each and every one of my art projectsOH WAIT DO U HAVE A SCAR OVER ONE EYE THAT I SHOULD INCLUDE?
YAYYY
if you’ve got a WIP to show by next wednesday, you can take longer if ya need <333THERE’S A SCAR OVER THE LEFT EYE (IF YOU’RE VIEWING THE PICTURE, IT WOULD BE ON YOUR RIGHT), YES 😀
YEEET I AM GONNA WORK ON IT RIGHT NOW (I was eating lunch and doing homework) SO I WILL POST WIPS THIS WEEK AND NEXT WEEK ON WEDNESDAY
also i am trying to do all my stuff: drawing, tie-dye, reading my book for bookclub oop
ABOUT THE SCAR OK GOOD THANKS
ALSO I AM EXCITED TO SEE PINEY’S (Pineblossom) CUZ SHE’S DONE DIGITAL FOR SOME TIME AND SHE’S GOOD WHIST I HAVE JUST STARTED AND I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO STUFF BUT I’LL TRY XD

Hello Viper I’m sketching the eye now so uhhh here ya go
https://imgur.com/vQtarfB
It’s a WIP of the eye
I was also doing the other eye but it was bad so I restarted
I’ll send a pic again when I’m done with the sketching and going into the lineart (or when I’m done with the lineart maybe)
What do you think about it so far?
WHAT IN THE NAME OF STARCLAN
HOW ARE YOU SO GOOD AT EYES?! XD I LOVE IT <33333333
THANK YOU SO MUCH AHHHHH
I think I’m ok at digital art? I mean I just started so I really don’t know 😅
YOU’RE AMAZING AT IT ARE YOU KIDDING ME
you’re making me reconsider my digital art drawings that contain eyes XDTHANK YOU SO MUCH VIPER, BUT
I AM GOOD AT SKETCHING BUT TERRIBLE AT COLORING SO IDK HOW THIS WILL GO
LET’S PRAY THAT THE PROFILE PIC PROJECT DOESN’T GET RUINED
DON’T YOU DARE FEEL THAT WAY EVERYBODY HAS THEIR OWN STYLE OF ART AND IT’S JUST THAT I’M COMFORTABLE WITH REALISTIC>:0seriously tho. i tried drawing cartoon style and anything other than realistic and it turned out to be a disaster. i could not stop trying to go back to realistic style arghh
OH MY GOSH don’t even worry it’ll turn out great <333
i've tried several times to do realistic and i just end up defeated and doodling cartoon-style again so i get it XD
THANK YOU FOR UR KIND AND MOTIVATIONAL WORDS < 3333
oh so ur art skills techniques are kinda the opposite of me? i just can't do cartoon-style and idk why it seems so much easier but ughh i don't get it i just go back to going kinda realistic again oop
literal opposite, yes XD <333333333333333333333333333
Coloring is the only part I’m good at. 😛
THAT’S AN AMAZING EYE WOLF
hi friends it’s 2am
https://imgur.com/a/Pyp9syV
i gave you a little smiley snek friend viper :))
also i was so indecisive on the background oof
ITS AMAZINGGG
oh my gosh i love the little snek, how do you do the scale texture so well?! AND I GOT A LITTLE CROWN XD
ahhh it’s perfect <3
the scale texture is a brush i downloaded 😛 you deserve that crown queen ;)) thanks youuu
its stunning <3333
wow ok just noticed my grammar up there
“thanks you”
proof i didn’t sleep enough
yours welcomes
PINEEEEEEEEEE YOUR ART IS AMAZINNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
DGDJDBDJ THANKS CLOOO
SLEEP CHILD SLEEP
good idea blue
That looks amazing!!! It’s so good!
The snake is so adorable!! <333
OMG I LOVE IT PINEYYY AHHHHH
NOW HELP ME DRAW THE REST OF MINE CUZ I JUST STARTED DIGITAL AND I’M A NOOB AND IDK HOW IT WILL COME OUT XD
YOU GOT THIS WOLF
Ok so uhh ahem uh-
I realize that what I am drawing will result in an angry Viper and not a happy cat so uhh problem is, I’m looking at some warriors cat book cover (The First Battle to be exact, but closer up cuz it’s a profile pic: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.barnesandnoble.com%2Fw%2Fthe-first-battle-erin-hunter%2F1117446327&psig=AOvVaw1Yy0U3GzutE8CjFZYvldDw&ust=1594272786113000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCKCsnoz3vOoCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD ) and so I always vision what I want to draw before I draw but it always ends up weird but what I am thinking of looks rly great and I want to draw it :/
should I try to draw from the heart? i feel the risk of making the result look weird :/
also, i don’t have to much done yet so i feel completely fine leaving it behind (i will just open a new project, not erase what I have now) and the realistic eye was SUPER EASY somehow so uh ye, i just wanted to add that i don’t mind restarting 🙂
HEY. NO SELF DOUBT ALLOWED HERE. <333333 this is a happy art zone <333333
you draw what you feel in your heart you should draw, and it doesn't matter what I think :3 besides, i'd love to see a drawing with heart behind it more than a drawing that just caters to me, okay? 😀
what oh gosh TYSM FOR SAYING THAT VIPEERRR < 333333333
ok i will try starting tomorrow cuz it's nearly 11pm here and my mom will tell me to sleep soon
although that’s super early imo, i usually read from my kindle until about 1:30am and then sleep hahago at your own pace! i know you’re working on it so if you really need an extension lemme know <33333333333333
Alright! Thanksss! I’ll send in another WIP pic when I’m done with the lineart
or should I just say how much time i need and save it until i’m done?you can do whichever you prefer! :3
okieeee i’ll let you know about my progress by the end of tomorrow or the end of the week ^^
