#drawfee has turned my life into a joke

i am honestly grateful the power didn't go out during the last few days with batshit crazy negative temperatures and waited for this morning for shit to explode but also 20°f (-6°c) isn't going to feel much better in about an hour, and estimates are that we'll get power back in ~5 hours, so... besties pray for my toes

Here is a bunch of artwork I made for a mate's minecraft server + lil tidbits on the creative process/what on earth it is meant to be.

Here is what could be my favorite on a... vibe level? idk its weird- it is a bee! His name is canonically bort, he has more stored energy than the entire universe, and likes roses. I am not joking, it is a wild story line.

This one is demonstrating the custom structure the server boasts, the hanging city. This is technically the first painting I started working on but it was one of the last ones I finished because I uh forgot about it.

This one took the longest actively being worked on, from concept to finalization. It shows four guardians. Yorker, the nice one, guard of life. Tycor, guard of War. Ritor, guard of storms. And finally, Tortor, guard of death. What does this matter? Nothing, at this point and time they are all dead, but it sure makes a neat portrait piece.

This one, for being described by others as the one that goes the hardest and looks the coolest, is based off the most dumb premise. There was this wither skeleton that survived a event, the admin made him talk for fun, he revealed his name was Grinkellord. That is it. That is the inspiration.

One of the other dumb inspiration ones that allegedly goes hard. This one was inspired by a photo of my girlfriend dying in lava with a physics mod installed with a funky effect layered over it.

This one has my favorite flavor out of these all. It was inspired by an underwater city me and a friend made on the server called Atlantis. Ironically, this city has been completely lost to time (despite the server owners best attempts at world backups.)

This painting pays tribute to an idea that the server owner wanted to execute but was unable to. Ancient, huge copper pipes that would litter certain parts of the worlds oceans.

This one was originally going to be an infected moon type thing, with black growths taking it over. However, as I did it, it slowly turned into this. Not really sure how but aye it looks neat.

This one is my personal favorite. It shows the time way back in 2019 when a secret lab me and a friend had got ripped out of the ground by a massive portal. Good times, those were.

And here is the server owners favorites, and I can certainly see why. I am putting them together due to how they are linked. Called "The Voyager" and "The Voyage". The Voyager shows an advanced computer that is comprised of an entire species worth of individual being stuffed into one intelligence. It is the operator of the vehicle shown in The Voyage, slowly exploring space.

This one shows the Arbiter, in his human form and his castle form in the background. It was fun messing with a low color palette like this.

Here is a space shark, pretty much taken but not traced directly from some art Drawfee made a good few years ago. Still cool as h*ck.

And this one, showing the portal mentioned in the STRDEL painting.

And here are a bunch of ones that while still neat, I did not plan on being in the server. They were all pieces of art I had made for the server previously and the owner had just kind of put into frames and called it a day. I then took the sprites and freshened them up to be real works that work in a painting setting. Am kinda proud of myself for how much I adapted them.

Here is the masterpost for the rest of the server sprites.
