Oh, my mistake. I made a small typo, and I must have missed it when I was checking the links. Should have double checked them huh? Thanks for pointing that out. I've fixed Lunar-Dragon's username in the description now.

@Lunar-Dragon
I made a small typo adding your username in the description, but I made sure to correct it when it was pointed out to me.
I really wish I had though to include you sooner when I was making this, but I was focused on artists I remember from many years ago, and then remembered you nearing the completion of this one. You're a very talented artist, and I believe you will make a big break-through some day. Hopefully I can help you get some of the praise you deserve with this, or even other projects I have in the pipeline.

Wow, I popped onto Colors at the right time to see this! I really appreciate you making a project like this, and for including me in it! It brings back wonderful memories of the Colors3D days. You were a part of the reason they were such good days - don't forget to include your name in there too haha! ;)
Thanks for this awesome throwback!

Omg! That's so NICE QvQ

I'm truly honored to be a part of this. Oh man such memories, I'm starting to feel so nostalgic. It's nice to see so many wonderful artists who inspired me and helped me grow as an artist QvQ.

Man, I wish I could be here more often. This was my first and still my favorite community to be a part of even if I only wander in once a year or so haha

Thank you. This is wonderful :)

Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much for this honor!! X3
I know I said it on your previous post, but I'll say it here to! I know when I joined Colors it was at the tail end of its glory days with the 3DS, but even so, I still seen and met some amazing artists and now some of my greatest friends because of this wonderful art site and its community <3 Colors help me grow so much in my art and so much more! It always be a special place in my heart and I'll always call it home <3
You tag many of my inspirations and friends already xD
Some others would be @Fluffy_inc @/Krazy Katt111
@Puzzled @CritCorsac @fuu-min

And yes! Don't forget yourself! You made and keep making Colors a special place <3

Awww, Shadow shared this with me and I can't believe you included me in this!! That's so sweet of you!! I never thought of myself as anyone noteworthy, so I'm especially touched that you included me on here, I'm honored that you consider me one of your favorite artists! TwT

I'm also so very impressed by this picture itself! The fact that you redrew everyone's profile pictures so accurately and put them all in is so incredible!! I gotta second what Shadow said, you're just as amazing if not more! X3

@The_Adjudicator I have a question, I like to draw you something, you always been so encouraging to not only me but to many others, your always doing so much for others and I like to draw you something as a special thank you x3

@BloodDragon
However often you are here, know that we always welcome you back with a smile any time ^U^

@Sunny8
Ordinary yes, however it's closed for the time being so I can focus on other things. I'm starting to catch up on other projects, but it's still just a bit too much for me to focus on right now.

@-zyik-
I really wish I could do more for these, and many more artists. Glad to see you feel the same. I wonder if a feature like this could be built into the home page?

The_Adjudicator

16 Mar, 2024, 9:23 am

@ShadowPikaboo
I still have at least two more of these in he works. The next one should be finished and published sometime next week. @Fluffy_inc and @Puzzled are are on the queue for one of them. Believe me, I searched through over a thousand artist's galleries, reminisced a decade of memories, cried once or twice, and picked the artists who had the most impact on me personally. I wish there was more I could do, but this is already proving something of a huge undertaking.

@ShadowPikaboo
That being said, I'm very grateful that you're willing to do something like that for me. I have two options for you. The fist option is my OC #VoidWing. I'd like to see how you draw him in your style. Feel free to use creative liberties to reimagine his design, so long as the end result is still recognizable.

The_Adjudicator

16 Mar, 2024, 9:31 am

The second option is a bit more tricky, but if there's some way for me to send you a screenshot from my smartphone or PC (through Discord, email, or other photo sharing platforms, I took some screenshots of dragonborne character designs I liked from the character creator menu in Baldur's Gate III, and if you're up for it, I'd like you to reimagine one of them (youre choice) as a dragon in your style. What would you prefer?

@LillyLightstar
Although I've only known of you for a relatively short time, I immediately fell in love with your style, and wish I had known of you sooner. I love fantasy creatures, and I especially love it when their colorful and detailed. ^_^

@The_Adjudicator Interesting idea! I know part of the long term plan for Colors Live is to revamp the gallery a bit( no timeline atm) so maybe something like your idea could be done. Feel free to share more or even do examples. Maybe I'll do a weekly challenge based on feature examples :wink: :thought_balloon:

@The_Adjudicator. Eeee! I'm glad to hear! Thank you for doing these Legacy pics, they really brought back memories <3 I miss the good old days to, I made many friends here but most have moved on but I still hold on to the memories <3 it was also because of colors though that I met my bested friends @LillyLightstar , @Fluffy_inc and @GalaxyTheWolf and last year I flew for the first time and went on a road trip with Fluffy and her dad to go see Lilly in person for the first time, we all had a Blast!! Colors help bring us all together so seen this means so much <3 <3 <3
I know you've picked up a huge challenge but I think you, I have not seen a single name that has not impacted my time here on colorslive in some way or from, I still remember when I first got the nerve to make my account and post my first public picture and from that point on I feel in love with this site and community x3

Thank you hundred of a thousand times <3

ShadowPikaboo

16 Mar, 2024, 3:45 pm

@The_Adjudicator absolutely! It be my honor to do ether one for you! X3

If you like, you can send the screenshots over Discord my usernames the exact same as in colors and you can find me in the colorslive server as well ^-^ just shoot me a message and who you are if you're Discord name is different so I know it's you! :D

Hello! I wanted to stop by and say a big thank you for including me on this! It really is an honor! To be grouped with so many amazing artists, who of which were some of the people I looked up to during my time on Colors, is honestly a surreal feeling. I always kind of kept to myself here and never considered my art or myself anything super special amongst the community, but to know I’m considered a part of someone’s favorite artist list has brought a big smile to my face and I’m super thankful! ^-^ This project is such a wonderful idea, and seeing this really makes me reminisce and appreciate my time here and how this place impacted me.

@GalaxyTheWolf
I know I've been something of a silent observer of your gallery, but studying you artwork from time to time helped me learn a lot about art, particularly the way you draw fantasy creatures. : ) I just wanted to help other up-and-coming artists get the same inspriations I got from the wonderful artists of this community. I believe you deserve a spot with the best of them.

Man I haven't been on here in eons. Thanks @shadowpikaboo for linking me this on discord! And thanks for the mention! This definitely brings back memories and I remember all of the other artists fondly.

I'm honored and truly humbled. It was a great ride.
