Linktober’s Past

🇩🇪 Fast könnte man sagen, der Alltag hat mich wieder. Kaum ist der Linktober rum, sitze ich wieder verstärkt an zwei Arcryla-City-Bildern. Eines davon habe ich als Work in Progress bereits auf Patreon und Ko-fi hochgeladen, wo ihr sie als Dank für eine kleine Unterstützung gerne bereits einsehen könnt.

Zudem habe ich in der verganenen Woche erneut für jemanden ein Bild zur Verwendung als Emoji gezeichnet:

🇬🇧 You could almost say that everyday drawing has got me back. No sooner is Linktober over than I’m working on two Arcryla City paintings again. I have already uploaded one of them as a work in progress to Patreon and Ko-fi, where you are welcome to view it as a thank you for a little support.

Additionally, last week I again draw a painting for someone which will be used as emoji:

Ganz entlassen aus dem Linktober waren ich und ihr jedoch noch nicht. Die Idee, auch Cheio, jene Fee, die meinen OC Navarra durch den Linktober begleitet hat, ebenfalls zu zeichnen, kam mir bereits sehr früh und in den letzten Oktober- und ersten Novembertagen bin ich dann auch zur Tat geschritten.

Es ist zugegebenermaßen allerdings bereits so etwas wie ein Redesign, da sie sich doch ein wenig von dem unterscheidet, was man in den ursprünglichen Linktober-Bildern erahnen kann:

However, I and you weren’t yet completely released from Linktober. The idea of drawing Cheio, the fairy who accompanied my OC Navarra through Linktober, came to me very early, and in the last days of October and the first days of November I actrually did so.

Admittedly, it’s already something like a redesign because she looks slighly different from the form you can guess by looking on the Linktober paintings.

Und wie immer nach solchen Monatschallenges gibt es natürlich auch eine Collage mit sämtlichen Zeichnungen und diesmal sogar noch ein Video dazu obendrauf:

As usual after those month’s challenges, I also did a collage with all of the paintings and this time there also is a video on top:

The Adventures of Linktober

🇩🇪 Der Oktober ist morgen offiziell zu Ende.

Erst kürzlich habe ich erfahren, dass der Oktober auch Dysautonomia Awareness Month ist. Bis dahin kannte ich dies selber nicht, nun hat jedoch Potato_Beta auf Instagram ein DTIYS zu dem Thema ausgerichtet, an dem ich ebenfalls teilgenommen habe.

Wenn ihr selber gerne an DTIYS teilnehmt oder auch wenn nicht, empfehle ich euch, ihre Challenge einmal anzuschauen.

🇬🇧 Tomorrow October officially will come to an end.

Only recently I learned that October also is Dysautonomia Awareness Month. I didn’t know it until then but now Potato_Beta on Instagram announced a DTIYS about this topic in which I participated.

If you like to join DTIYS’s or even if not, I’d like to recommend to check out her challenge.

Mit dem Oktober steuert auch der Linktober nun auf seinen Showdown zu. In der letzten Woche hat Navarra Winter Island aus den Fängen der Frost Fairy befreien können.

Doch die größte Herausforderung wartet noch: Ganon!

With October coming to an end Linktober does likewise. Navarra was able to free Winter Island from the clutches of the Frost Fairy.

Breath of Linktober

🇩🇪 Die erste Woche Linktober ist rum. Heute starten wir ins zweite Kapitel: Summer Island.

Ich hoffe, euch gefällt der Plot soweit. Der Nachteil an solch einer Monatschallenge ist, so viel Spaß sie auch macht und so einfach sie auch gehalten ist, man kommt nur zu wenig anderem noch. Es gibt noch das eine oder andere Werk, an dem ich zur Zeit arbeite oder es zumindest am Planen bin (sprichL: Es steht auf der To-Do-Liste), zur Zeit bin ich vorwiegend aber für den Rest des Linktobers am Vorarbeiten.

Immerhin, der Plot steht bereits, auch die zweite Woche ist schon so gut wie fertig und für die dritte habe ich ebenso bereits einen Plan.

Somit wünsche ich euch weiterhin viel Spaß dabei, Navarra auf ihrem Weg zu begleiten!

🇬🇧 First week of Linktober is done. Today we are heading into Chapter 2: Summer Island.

I hope you like the plot so far. The disadvantage of such a monthly challenge is that, as much fun as it is and as simple as I’m processing it, you only get to do very little else. There are one or two other works that I’m currently working on or at least planning (i.e.: it’s on the to-do list), but at the moment I’m mainly working on the rest of the Linktober.

At least the plot is planned, the second week is nearly finisshed and the plan for the third one also already stands.

A Linktober to the OC’s Fanart Emoji

🇩🇪 Ihr habt es gemerkt, der Oktober ist da! Und wie jedes Jahr begebe ich mich auch in diesem auf eine tintige Reise. Schon im letzten Jahr bin ich über den Linktober gestolpert. Damals war ich bereits in zwei Challenges involviert und der Oktober ohnehin fast zu Ende. Dieses Jahr werde ich aber von vorne bis hinten mit dabei sein.

Oben links könnt ihr tagtäglich die Fortschritte nun mitverfolgen. Um die ganze Geschiche zu lesen, empfehle ich aber auch, diese auf der entsprechenden Themenseite nachzuschlagen.

Auf Abenteuer geschickt habe ich meinen Zorca-OC, die ihr bereits aus dem Jahr 2019 und dem Redraw im Rahmen des Mermay 2021 kennt. Nun hat sie endlich auch einen Namen erhalten – Navarra.

You’ve noticed, October is here! And like every year, again I’m going on a tinty journey. I already stumbled across Linktober last year. At that time I was already involved in two other challenges and October was almost over anyway. This year, however, I will be into it from start to finish.

At the top left, you now have insight to the daily progress. To read the whole story, however, go to the themed webpage.

I sent my Zorca OC on the adventure who you already know from 2019 and the redraw in Mermay 2021. Now she finally has been given a name – Navarra.

  • Day 1 - Digital Painting, blue monochrome ink style, all text in The Legend of Zelda - Breath of the Wild Font: Headline "Linktober 2021", In the upper left corner three filled hearts, below them a gemstone and the number 0; in the lower left corner the text "Quest Calendar", in the left edge the topic "OC Champion + Fairy"; the picture showing a single Zora (based on an orca) with a spear and a fairy based on a flying fish, illuminated by light, below her the text "It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!"
  • Day 2 - Digital Painting, blue monochrome ink style, all text in The Legend of Zelda - Breath of the Wild Font: Headline "Linktober 2021", In the upper left corner three filled hearts, below them a gemstone and the number 0; in the lower left corner the text "Quest Calendar", in the left edge the topic "OC's Island / Home"; the picture showing a single Zora (based on an orca) with a spear and a fairy based on a flying fish, illuminated by light beside a fountain with an orca as statue and a closed seashell
  • Day 3 - Digital Painting, blue monochrome ink style, all text in The Legend of Zelda - Breath of the Wild Font: Headline "Linktober 2021", In the upper left corner three filled hearts, below them a gemstone and a number changing from 0 to 100 in a way digital ciphers will do it; in the lower left corner the text "Quest Calendar", in the left edge the topic "Islands Vehicle / Mount"; the picture showing a single Zora (based on an orca) with a spear and a fairy based on a flying fish, illuminated by light beside a fountain with an orca as statue and an opened seashell with a gemstone in it as well as a fish with feetlike fins

Außer der Linktober-Challenge habe ich mich in der letzten Woche aber auch noch am Erstellen von Emojis z. B. für Discord-Server versucht. Das hat sogar so gut funktioniert, dass ich sie ab nun als Willkommensgeschenk und Treue-Bonus in meine Patreon-Benefits mit aufgenommen habe.

Eines davon ist zugleich auch ausgewachsene Fanart geworden: Zoe, eine der Personen, denen man im (sehr intensen und nahegehenden und deshalb schwer zu empfehlenden) Videospiel Road 96 auf dem Weg zur Grenze begegnet.

Apart from the Linktober Challenge, I also tried creating emojis for example for Discord servers. This turned out so well that I have now included them in my Patreon benefits as welcome gift and loyalty bonus.

One of them even became a full scale fanart piece: Zoe, one of the characters you meet on the way to the border in the (very intense and touching and therefore highly recommendable) video game Road 96.

#MeetMyOCs ging in die dritte Runde. Neben Navarra hat nun auch Crissys Crush endlich einen Namen erhalten und Emil emilt fröhlich vor sich hin. An dieser Stelle werneut der dezente (*hust!*) Hinweis, dass ihr das Template mit transparentem Hintergrund auch über Patreon oder Ko-fi beziehen könnt.

#MeetMyOCs the Third. In addition to Navarra, Crissy’s Crush likewise finally has been given a name and Emil is emiling happily. At this point, I would like to discreetly (*cough!*) point out that you can also get the template with a transparent background via Patreon or Ko-fi.

Und schließlich das, was bereits seit mehreren Wochen angekündigt war:

Gestern Abend (Morgen nach pazifischer Zeit) gab es ein weiteres Arcryla-City-Showcase. Meinen Beitrag kann ich euch hiermit nun endlich präsentieren.

Last but not least the event announced for weeks:

Yesterday evening (morning after Pacific time) there was another Arcryla City showcase. I finally can present my entry:

„Midnight Snack“

Crissy’s pets are water bears. They usually are not bigger in size than one millimeter. Therefore, Crissy constructed a mechanical water bear so she can take them for a walk, equipped with a projectoscope to watch them living their little water bear lives. Every so often she has to feed them algae, of course.

Re …

🇩🇪 wie Revidieren … Denn dies muss ich, und zwar meine Aussage von letzter Woche, dass gestern ein weiterer Arcryla City-Showcase stattfand und ich euch deshalb jetzt erst das nächste Bild von Crissy zeigen kann. Da ich ein komplettes Wochenende verpeilt und gedacht hatte, der 02. Oktober sei gestern schon gewesen, müsst ihr somit nun leider noch eine weitere Woche auf das September-Event warten.

… wie Redesign. Ihr habt es beim Aufruf dieser Seite bereits gemerkt: Ich habe diese eine, größeren Designwechsel unterzogen. Das alte fand ich inzwischen doch ein wenig langweilig und altbacken und das neue hat einige Features, die ich an dem alten vermisst hatte.

Zum Beispiel findet ihr nun einen Google-Translate-Button rechts oben, mit dem ihr euch jede (Unter)Seite übersetzen lassen könnt. Ich werde dennoch weiterhin bilingual schreiben bzw. das Projekt „Übersetzung ins Englische“ vorantreiben, da die Ergebnisse mit dem Google-Translator teils zu recht skurrilen Ergebnissen führen. Insbesondere betreffs der älteren (deutschsprachigen) Seiten und Beiträge bringt er euch hoffentlich zumindest eine Idee, um was es auf diesen geht.

… wie Redraw. Nicht nur meine Webseite hatte dringend eine Überarbeitung nötig, ebenso hat sich mein Charakter Luca im Laufe der Geschichte um Cedrakon in den letzten anderthalb Jahren unablässig verändert. Ihr aktuelles Design wich inzwischen doch deutlich von jenem Bild ab, das ich als allerallerstes überhaupt für diese Geschichte gezeichnet hatte.

Deshalb war nun auch hier dringend ein Redraw nötig:

🇬🇧 like Revise … Because I have to. Last week I told you that another Arcryla City showcase took place yesterday and that I can therefore show you the next picture of Crissy today. Since I didn’t took into account a whole weekend and thought that 2 October had already been yesterday, I am sorry that I have to tell you hat you will have to wait another week for the September event.

… like Redesign. Surely, you already noticed: I did a major design change of my website. I thought the old one was a little bit boring and old-fashioned and the new one has some features that I missed on the old one.

For example, you now will find a Google Translate button at the top right to translate any (sub)pages. I will continue to write bilingually and to push ahead with the project „translation into English“, though, as the results with the Google Translator sometimes lead to funny results. Especially with regard to the older (German-language) pages and articles, hopefully it will at least give you an idea of what they are about.

… like Redraw. Not only my website was in need of an design upgrade, but my character Luca too changed constantly over the course of one and a half years during telling The Tale of Cedrakon. Her current design noticaebly differs from the painting I drew as very first painting at all in preparation for this story.

Therefore a redraw was required:

Starting 1 October 2021

Coming soo…now!

🇩🇪 Angekündigt hatte ich es bereits vor zweite Wochen, jetzt ist es endlich fertig und ich kann es euch hier präsentieren:

Schon während des Arcryla City Summer Festivals (🇬🇧) kamen der talentieren Potato Beta (Instagram) und mir die Idee zu einem Kollaborationsprojekt, in dem ihr Arcryla-City-Charakter (Potato) meinem (Crissy) Tipps in Liebesangelegenheiten gibt. Crissy sozialisiert sich nur sehr zurückhaltend, einen Anknüpfungspunkt fanden wir trotzdem sehr schnell:

🇬🇧 I announced it already two weeks ago, now it’s finally finished and I can share it here:

The idea of a collaboration project struck the talented Potato Beta (Instagram) and me already during the Arcryla City Summer Festival. This idea was about her Arcryla City character (Potato) giving mine (Crissy) advice in matters of the heart. Crissy doesn’t socialise easily but we soon found a starting point:

Sleepover

Sooo, Crissy met Potato after her Ring Toss photo shoot, as she asked Crissy to build an Anti-G Device, so they could fly. They quickly became good friends and this evening they planned a girls‘ night!

They decided to make a sleepover, which took place on Crissy’s flat as Conway is currently living in Potato’s house and they didn’t want someone overhearing their conversations.

They ate a lot and talked a ton, and after some fish drinks true feeling came to light…

Crissy: “ So who was that guy in the photo shoot?“
Potato: “ Ummm… he was… my…. childhood friend… but now, he’s… SO I saw you flying the other day with someone who is she??? Is she your CRUSH??“
Crissy (instant blushing): „Err … Paula? … No … I mean … yes … no … perhaps …“
Potato: „Oohhh Paula… cute name! You make a nice couple! Do you plan on confessing??
Crissy (going full tomato mode): „Con… err … no … umm …“ (mumbling around) „Just a customer … don’t know … don’t think … isn’t interested in me …“

Neben diesem Bild befindet sich noch ein zweites bereits in der Zielkurve, an dem ich die letzte Woche am Arbeiten war. Da dieses jedoch für einen weiteren Showcase auf dem Arcryla-City Discord-Server bestimmt ist, werdet ihr es erst nächste Woche an der bekannten Stelle (🇬🇧) finden.

Apart from this painting there also is a second one in the final bend on which I worked last week. Because it is supposed to be presented on another Arcryla City showcase, you will find it on the known site next week.

This October!

Another year gone

🇩🇪 Diesen Absatz wollte ich eigentlich letzte Woche bereits schreiben, doch wäre es wahrscheinlich der Crissy (🇬🇧)-Overload geworden.

Mein DTIYS (🇬🇧) auf Instagram läuft nun schon ca. ein Monat lange. In dieser Zeit sind auch schon ein paar Beiträge eingegangen, auf die ich an dieser Stelle – mit einem kleinen Kommentar dazu – verlinken möchte. Vielen lieben Dank an alle bisherigen Teilnehmer!

🇬🇧 Actually, I planned to write this paragraph already last week but this would’ve meant to be a Crissy overload.

My DTIYS on Instagram now is going for ca. one month. In this time there already has been some entries which I’d like to link you to – with some short comments. Many thanks to all of the participants so far!

General overview.

A cute first entry by Et_Meli, I was enchanted by the single screw an Crissy’s expression.

I love how xeunbeex included Crissy‘s stuffed Water Bear!

And the design of the glasses, the pendants and the haircut drawn by xoxotoki.

Perfectly depicted by Pocket_Andrew: Crissy is ready to work!

🎶 „Und wieder geht ein Jahr“ 🎶

(„Another year gone“)

Mit unter anderem diesem Lied haben wir Anfan der Woche den Geburtstag eines meiner Lieblings-Streamer, dem Moep0r, gefeiert. Zu diesem Anlass hatte schnell noch mein Bearthbound-Bild von Anfang des Jahres aktualisiert. Ihr fragt euch, was die Zitronenrollen und die 40 % zu bedeuten haben? Dann kommt zu ihm in den Stream!

With this song among others we celebrated the birthday of one of my favourite streamers, Moep0r, in the beginning of last week. Thereofre I updated my Bearthbound painting from the beginning of this year a little bit. You are asking what the lemon rolls and the 40 % mean? Join his stream to find out!

Coming soon!
