The Slothicorn Art Contest ends tonight and I almost missed it. I wasn't sure if I was going to have time to sit down and actually bang something out.
Here's my comic book styled slothicorn — it was digitally illustrated using a graphics monitor (paid for by Steemit earnings, I might add!) It's in response to this great idea and project spearheaded by @stellabelle : https://steemit.com/slothicorn/@stellabelle/win-this-crypto-survival-kit-in-slothicorn-s-first-art-contest
The beauty of this contest is to provide art that is creative commons licensed to be used by any one in any way at any time, so have at her, and wish me luck!
I need a drink. Can't wait to look through all of the entries now that the mad panic is over! Here's a gif showing the layers stacking up for this simple process. It's a bit messy, but it feels really amazing to have a reason to sit down and actually just produce a bit of art again, even if it's a bit sloppy. There are a lot of little things I'd love to change, but what else is new? Perfectly imperfect. I was seeing a lot of sloth based animals, so I ended up with... whatever this thing is. Sloth claws and nose and markings, and then all of its horsey limbs stretched out grotesquely; I ended up having to colour it super perky colours, as it was actually a little bit terrifying when I made it red and black.

WOWEE, neato! I actually have made it into the top 30 for judging. The top 24 will be included in an anthology. If you like my weird nightmare hlothiscorse, would you go consider giving it your smallest vote? I would be so thrilled!
