it's still dec 31 as of posting this so technically there's still a holiday i can wish you all happiness for...

Happy new years Holidays from me and the [BOYS] guild!!

[foxmallow]

Happy New Year, everyone - I hope 2025 treats you all well! On my end, this upcoming Saturday marks the second anniversary of my own little New Years' resolution: the art parties I host with my guild, [VS] Verdant Shield! And, as has now become tradition, we'll return to where it all began, the location of the very first party - the (uninstanced) asura home instance in Rata Sum!

But first, a quick tl;dr for what said art parties are! A concept carried over from Final Fantasy XIV, art parties are in-game get-togethers for artists of all kinds to hang out, chat, and create together! For GW2 parties there’s more of an emphasis on hanging out and gathering references during the party itself, and then in the days/weeks following to work on your creations at your own pace and then post to the shared art party tag. We’ve used the same one (#VSArtParty) since the very beginning so you can go allll the way back and explore what people have made!

Even more tl;dr is this: the ‘goal’ of an art party isn’t to be drawn, but to draw others, and share with the community!

Time and /squadjoin information is below the cut, but will also be posted again on the day of the party as things begin!

Location Information:

It's a little out of the way, but my intention back in the day was to pick a location near and dear to my asura-loving heart while also not drawing uninvited eyes, and such did the uninstanced asura home instance get chosen! To get yourself over there you'll want to have some kind of flying mount, or at the very least a teleport-to-friend to pop yourself over!

Time & Squad Details:

As is customary, we’ll be having two parties - the first one on EU servers and the second on NA - with an hour break in between for those who may want to attend both!

The EU server party will begin at 9pm Central European Time (aka 3pm Eastern Standard Time or 4 hours before in-game reset). I’ll be hosting this one on my EU alt account, so please either /whisper or /squadjoin Paranomalous Plexxi for a taxi invite if you don’t end up on the right map!

The NA server party will begin 1 hour after the EU party’s official end, at 7pm Eastern Standard Time (aka 1am Central European Time or at in-game reset). I’ll be on my main account for this one and may switch ‘host’ characters a few times, but please /whisper or /squadjoin Teekzi for a taxi invite if you don’t see my customary white cat tag hanging around on your map!

Closing Words:

Had a few real-life delays to making this post, thank you for your patience! Related to one such real-life delay, have cat tax by way of apology:

Anyway! Expect perhaps something a little special for this month's party, maybe some trivia or something? I had a few plans in the works but most fell through due to irl things, as they often do. Regardless, I always appreciate everyone who comes out to these parties - you are always what make them special! Take care of yourselves, enjoy your New Years' festivities, and I'll see you this Saturday! ♥

more of this, you're welcome/sorry that happened

not happy with how overworked my doodles have been looking lately (or how LONG they take to do) so shaking it up a bit with different brushes/no fussing with colour

ulexxi would love to be having a nice violent nemesis situation but jezziko's spellbreaking can shut off his implants/power armour so he has to settle for what he can get.

Something about the Artesian Waters being a powerful source of magic on Tyria, predating the human Gods. I'm sure there's lore here somewhere.

My August illustration for the @calendar-krewe!! 😋🥟🧡 Feauturing (grown-up) Miss Mipp and my Sylvari Commander Oprez!

Some context behind the illustration:

Miss Mipp is an NPC you can find in Gendarran Fields at the Almuten Estates. She is a vendor who sells Curry Buns. My (not yet Commander then) Oprez befriends her and he really enjoys eating the curry buns she makes. He would visit her from time to time as the GW2's story progresses, and they would even go Trick-or-Tricking together on Halloween. As time passes, Miss Mipp grows up and I headcanon she wants to become a chef. Commander Oprez helps out by opening her very own food stand in New Kaineng City. Starting a business can be hard, that's why Oprez joins her as her chef assistant as she takes the city by her delicious Curry Buns!!

The calendar is free for download and printing 👈 Clicky here Please enjoy the many meals offered! Everyone did such an amazing job making them!!

i’m always delighted when i realize the gw2 devs have done something playful with the stat combos on gear. right now i’m looking at the sinful weapons from SOTO for reasons, and you should’ve seen the big goofy grin on my face when i realized they gave the greed weapon (avarice’s command) celestial stats… because it wants a little bit of everything

also envy’s bite having vipers stats, despair’s lament and regret’s memory both having grieving, rage’s fist having berserkers…….. very cute 10/10
