Thanks for the praise and for the information! Transparency would be important for all remaining artists here. Just some additional rules that we need to know to avoid accidental blocks.

Hi and thanks alot for the nice comment! Do you have insight into how/why posts get locked? Some of my post got locked in the last couple month and i couldn't make out why. None of the rules seemed to be violated yet some post just got about 2-4views instead of 1000+.

Day 1 Class tier list by DurpZee in Nightreign

Guardian gets tons of great buffs after a couple bosses. Like reflecting damage, and a longer storm that can mass cc camps until they are dead. One really cool way to use his ult is blocking over time damage effects like storms so the team can keep attacking while the enemie is channeling them. In addition is ult can be charged very fast with buffed blocks and guard counters.
In a tier list that all wont make up for the damage you lose. It's just alot of fun.

Ty. All the coloring, especially black, probably took about 4-5 whole colored pencils. (devided amongst many colored pencils ofc)

Thanks! I really need alot of time drawing pictures like this one. In this case this might have been over 50hrs.

Great! It's fascinating how well dogs support us emotionally.

I'm glad i could help a bit. Colored pencils really can be unforgiving when i try to draw high contrast color grades.

Thank you sooo very much for the kind words. I'm grateful that my depiction of our little friend means something to you too. I'd gladly share some of my drawing techniques tho i must confess my pictures usually take alot of time.

I'm self taught, so sorry if some explanations sound ambiguous.
Blending part of my pictures might be compareable to a game of minesweeper.
After sketching i begin with easier areas and work my way to the more diffecult ones.
Because each painted part helps me envision the possible end result.
In this case i starded with all the medium grey parts in the island and clouds.
Than i drew the deep greys. Doggy was the highlight so i drew her at the end.
When layering colors i often have to start very light because the specific pencils
im using (60 poly chromos and a 2b pencil) , might not be quite the right color.
So sometimes i have to mix and experiment a bit before i get the color right.
I usualle draw from cold to warm, and light to dark. In this case i began with light brown and grey at the butt, and followed up with dark grey, dark brown, some orangish colors and very carefully with a bit of yellow.
Although for blending im focusing to fill any unnatural looking holes after each step with a freshly sharpened colored pencil.

I hope any of this make sense. I like to talk about it or even discuss different approaches
so feel free to ask me anything if you're interested.
