Mad, she/her, early 30s. Occassional amateur doodler. Here I post cartoon lions, mainly role-play characters or members of the Burning Blood Pride I created in 2008. My GW2 blog: charrior-of-ash.

A small rant
Destroy the idea that digital art isn’t art, or is somehow lesser than traditional mediums.
You are a painter of light.
You delicately move data and photons into images of hope, horror, love, pain.
Your hard earned skills are not lesser because your work cannot be touched by physical hands.
Your ideas, which you painstakingly execute with those skills and all that experience, touch the minds and hearts of the thousands who may come across it.
Their impact is not lesser for having been absent a physical body during their creation.
Get your hands dirty with traditional media or delve into the possibilities of digital media. Do both! But don’t let anyone convince you that your work is lesser because of the medium. I think we as an art community should be long past that archaic idea.
Auric Basin is definitely the most beautiful map of the new HoT maps. It’s full of those hidden, quiet, colorful places.
And here you have a charr scrapper in his natural habitat xD Yes, even though he grew up in the Black Citadel and is part of the Iron Legion, he hates it’s all-metal environment. Right now, when he has a break from commanding* The Pact, he spends the majority of his time on making weapons/experiments/kits/etc. not from metal scraps, but from wood, stones and bones. Nothing can be wasted in the nature ;)
*I have a story for all of my current 3 characters, but only Fyndir’s story is his personal story from the game. His personality perfectly matches the position of the Commander - inteligent, smart, responisble, highly altruistic. Other traits: he’s quiet, detests killing innocent creatures and is quite a loner. Even tough people seem to enjoy his company, he doesn’t form any special relationships with anyone, and he doesn’t seek for them. His thoughts are occupied with fighting the Elder Dragons, what he thinks is his life mission. And being as responsible as he is, he would think it selfish to have friends - or family.
Finished this!
It may be only a colored sketch, but I’m super proud of it (I haven’t felt that IN MONTHS).
- So… We’re friends, right?
- That’s right. Kahawian, Kalani and Machozi. First day of new friendship.
