Above the Clouds by FadingGlory

Yesterday I entered a chalk art contest on the beach, and since I've never handled the medium before, I practiced beforehand on my 3DS. I'm glad I did, because drawing with chalk was a lot more challenging than it would seem.

For those who don't know, this is fan art for the movie How to Train Your Dragon (2, specifically).

Enjoy!

Edit: Ah I guess I should mention that I came in third for my division.

Thanks for 100+ likes!

Re: TY! :D
Yeah, she was in an rp before riverside, I barely got to participate in it rlly, technically I that would be my very first official group rp, but I only participated in one session. :/
The rp was disbanded a month later. And it wasn't until 1/2 years where riverside appeared and I entered her again. After the first session the owner has been rlly busy. Maybe I'm just the rain cloud? FaF seems to be taking the same road. :|

Re: haha yeah, I was going to say in the post 'i can draw other things other than Skey stuff and ref pic and art for other people x'D

I'll probably do more like this but the thing is most people on here won't really know the nostalgia because of the age difference xp but it was a nice change of pace.

13 Jul, 2017, 5:32 pm

Re: lol Yaeh, I kinda do draw a lot of Skey stuff, for some reason I was in a nostalgic mood and draw this, it was a fun change of pace, I will probably do more , but it all depends on my mood.

Hey, Fade!
I just wanted to let you know that I uploaded a few pieces of artwork you've made of my OCs on my Toyhou.se account (which in case you didn't know, is a site for storing information on original characters). I've given full credit to you and linked back to your Colors profile. If you'd rather I took down the pictures drawn by you, just say so and I'll oblige. :)

You can check out my Toyhou.se if you want, here's a link: http://toyhou.se/RadiantRaindragon

Re: i'm mainly just tired, physically and mentally :/ it's really hot and gross and i'm really bad at standing still for hours (which is what i have to do) and i'm just afraid of being in public. It feels like everyone's judging me and my roomate keeps letting random people in our room even though i ask her to not let them run around spilling crap that i have to pick up everywhere
