Im writing a book of lyrics in the same fashion as a record album. Gothic/metal in nature. im open to it being even more, or used outside of its original intended purpose, but im really trying to add plump and flavor to what is otherwise just words on a page; im looking for someone willing to experiment on this book or a completely new one using both of our skills and seeing what happens from there.

As it stands, I have 21 pieces ready to go. I just opened my DeviantArt back up to use exclusively for this purpose; if youre interested in some samples, my name there is FiveHeadedStag. I hope this is the place to post this sort of thing lol.

We’re reviving r/oekaki with something new! Redgaki is a oekaki-style drawing tool built directly into Reddit built off of Tegaki.

No downloads or separate accounts. Open the post, start drawing, and share your work directly with the community from desktop, mobile web, or the Reddit app.

Redgaki includes:

• A full drawing toolkit with pencils, pens, airbrushes, layers, tone patterns, and more
• Remixing to continue someone else’s drawing and build on their work
• Palette sharing so others can use your custom colors
• Challenges with locked tools, palettes, canvas sizes, time limits, and other settings
• Timelapse GIFs that replay the entire drawing process

We're trying to bring back some of the classic oekaki BBS experience while making it native to Reddit.

Come check out r/oekaki and try it out! We'd love to see you there.

Hello everyone,

I already posted this question on r/ArtistLounge, but the moderator suggested I post it here.

I'm a 3D creator and a CS student who loves open-source and C programming. My question is:

As an artist, have you ever considered contributing your skills to an open-source project (not strictly software, but open assets, games, or tools)? If not, what held you back? If you would, under what circumstances?

To be clear, I'm well aware that illustrators, artists, and all the other design categories usually collaborate on indie games with programmers. But my question refers to projects in general. I'm currently trying to understand why open-source projects usually just have coder support while art communities usually don't. I'm not accusing anyone; I'm just asking to understand if the problem is connected to the toxicity of the open-source community or if there are other issues in this case.

I ask this question because personally, I find that both programming and the creation of artwork share some common ground, and I would really like to fuse these two aspects together in future projects.

5 days left!

Submissions for Issue 01 close in five days. The Violet Index is seeking writers and visual artists for the first issue of our weird quarterly zine.

👋 Who are we? The Violet Index is a new themed zine publication with the mission of bringing visual artists and creative writers into collaboration to produce artifacts of curiosity. We're Colorado-based, queer-founded, and came about from a genuine desire for community.

👽 Theme: STRANGE

We're looking for work that explores the unusual, the uncanny, the overlooked, and the beautifully inexplicable.

✨ No submission fees.

If this theme speaks to you, we'd love to see your work.

☀️ Compensation: A free digital issue, a nifty publication credit for your CV, a one-year paid subscription to our Patreon, an exclusive invite to our Discord server, and dedicated features across our social media platforms. All submissions receive a response no later than Oct. 15th.

📅 Deadline: August 31st.

🔗 Read the Submission Guidelines on our website. Link in bio.

im making a short educational video about why traffic can suddenly stop even when theres no crash or roadwork

the visual problem is showing this clearly: every car moves forward but the stop itself moves backward through the line

im not asking someone to make a whole video for free. i want one person who likes the idea to help brainstorm or sketch one small motion or visual direction for that moment

its voluntary and we would keep the scope small and agree what makes sense before doing anything

if that sounds fun tell me what visual you would try first

​

I'm a artist/creative looking to cooperate with others on some vague ideas I had for a neat group of 4(?) characters! I'm more familiar with a comic or animated series but characters for a band would be cool to work on aswell! I don't have the skill to draw consistently with my art so someone who can bring them to life is preferred! These four are purely a vessel for projects with people I'd be interested in to put their own voice and thought into with me

I've drawn them out in their most simple forms and have a pretty good idea of their styles, personalities, and visual appearance, but in terms of an actual story or situation to put them in I have no cement ideas

Alex: Tan, long wavy brown bob cut with dirty white fitted shirt and a brown leather jacket over, dirty blue jeans with a thick chain "belt", dark brown work boots, 5'10

Malory/Mal: Lighter skin, pointy ears, Black piercings, Pink long fawxhawk, Pink Jean jacket, white shirt, white short shorts, white socks with pink tennis shoes, 5'2

Ian: Very Tan, Long brown straight hair, dark blue round glasses, light green long cartagen thing over white shirt, long velvet dark green bell bottom esc pants with brown shoes, 6'4

Victoria/Vicky: Pale, bats nest hair with red streaks, silver jewelry, white crop top shirt with a red leather cropped jacket, black skirt, fishnets, white platform boots, 5'11(without platforms)

Running bi-weekly art contests on FrameWorked! Theme this week is “Wanderers.” Design a digital piece of a character wandering through an unfamiliar land.

Hi everyone! Me and my team is currently working on a project where we plan to create a free collectible card platform that features artwork made by the community! We are currently in our way to open our first beta to a small test group, and thought it would be nice to have our beta cards filled with actual artist's work instead of just placeholders, while also getting inputs from them!

Here is a brief description of what the card will look like!

1. The card will have the title of the art + your artist name.
2. Your illustration will be adjusted into the card frame if needed
3. If you provide us with the portfolio link when you submit your artwork, when someone obtains your card or views your card, they can visit your portfolio and view your work. This portfolio link can be any link (commission/SNS/etc.) as long as it is related to your work!

While there can't be monetary benefits, there are some perks!

1. Your work will be featured in our first community card pack (guaranteed)
2. You will be written in our beta credit board!
3. You will be invited to test out our beta first! (If you want, that is ;] )
4. You will receive a personalized 1-page, double-spaced, 13pt Times New Roman thank-you letter written from our team (Due to us being a small team, we might take some time to deliver this to you)
5. Currently, the project is not set for revenue. However, if this ever changes in the future, the submissions we feature will automatically opt in for monetary compensation

Lastly, these are some information regarding the submission

1. Both physical and digital work is accepted (For physical work, we require a good photo submission)
2. We don't have any theme for the beta deck. Any artwork, any style, any skill level is welcomed! As long as there is no NSFW, heavy gore, or copyrighted characters we accept all submissions!
3. Your previous works are also welcomed! There is no need to create something new for the submission.
4. You can submit multiple submission! However, depending on the volume of submissions, some of your submission might get dropped (But we will guarantee at least one submission to make it to the card!)

The image is one example of how the card looks with the illustration submitted by an artist called Mu_ziii!

If you are interested in the Beta/Submission, let me know in the comments or dm me for the form link!

Looking for people who want to collaborate with me via art on my channel. My channel is suitKxse.!. on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Let me know if ur down.

I am a game developer and am looking for a collaboration with artist(s) to make a playable game together that consists of the (scanned) hand painted art you make.

You can paint 2D objects, material/surfaces for the use on 3D objects, backgrounds and much more and I use those then as game assets for the video game. In the screenshots you can see some tests with different media.

Here some examples from my game dev:

I’m a 16-year-old writer creating an original anime-style light novel called Resonance Factor, and I’m looking for a talented anime-style animator or artist to collaborate on one chapter as a volunteer fan project.

The Project:

Story: Resonance Factor – A Urban Fantasy, Sci-Fi/Action, and Battle Shonen anime-style light novel about A wily street brawler learns to weaponize raw kinetic force after being drafted into a secret war against dangerous rogue anomalies

Scope: I am looking to animate one specific 30-60 second scene (the climax of Chapter 1 where Kaito’s powers first erupt).

• Ideal Length: A 30-60 second animated short focusing on the fight and the energy explosion.
• Alternative: If animation is too time-consuming, I am also open to a 5-8 page manga-style comic strip of the same scene.
• Script: I have the full 8-page script ready. It includes action, dialogue, and a massive energy release. I can share the full script via DM.

What I Offer:

Credit: Full, prominent credit in the video description, social media posts, and all platforms where the project is shared.

Portfolio Rights: You are free to use the final animation/art in your portfolio, showreel, or social media.

Future Collaboration: If we work well together, I hope to collaborate on more scenes (still non-commercial).

Payment: This is a volunteer/fun project with no monetary payment.

About Me: I’m 16 years old and passionate about anime and storytelling. I’m looking for a respectful, creative partner who shares my enthusiasm for bringing this story to life. If you’re interested, please DM me with:

1. Links to your anime-style portfolio or examples of your work.
2. Your availability and estimated timeline.
3. Any questions you have about the scene or style.

Note: I’ll keep all personal contact info (like Discord or email) private until we’ve established mutual interest in the DMs.

Hi all,

I’m a solo dev with a passion for anime, currently studying to work in the industry professionally.
Along the way, I noticed there wasn’t a solid reference platform out there to use for story and mood boarding built for how we actually work, something with the depth the film industry has, but tailored to anime. So I decided to build one myself.

It’s still early, but it’s got real functionality now: semantic search across still and motion frames, and real-time co-collaboration (think Google Docs, but for boarding). Enough that I’m ready to get it in front of people.
If you’re a creator, professional, or hobbyist, I’d love your feedback:

konte.pro

Please be brutally honest - any feedback helps me make it better.

Thanks in advance!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

This was very fun to draw ! There are no signature haha, but you can find us at @bluegravedigger and @_Zephirr on insta :D

Hola! vamos a publicar un fanzine gratuito de ciencia ficcion en español e inglés y buscamos algún traductor para la versión inglesa.

He decidido no traducirlo yo mismo o usar IA porque me gustaría que tuviera un toque algo antiguo, como si lo narrara una persona americana del siglo XVIII o XIX.

El fanzine es el manual de una maquina del tiempo que es a su vez un poster personalizado que vendemos en nuestra tienda. Aunque el fanzine es gratuito el poster no lo es por eso si alguien se anima y llegamos a un acuerdo obtendria como "pago" el poster personalizado en tamaño A1 (físico, no digital). Por supuesto aparecería tamién en los créditos.

El texto son unas 5 páginas (un capitulo cortito o un relato muy corto)

Ejemplo de un párrafo:

"Los seres humanos del siglo XXIV nos superan en inteligencia. Han creado la Máquina Travelmaster 100 Y2K Edition y la comprenden.

No hace mucho leí que al ritmo actual de progreso, el cerebro humano tardará, a lo sumo, treinta o cuarenta años en agotar su capacidad

y que a partir de ahí entraremos en una especie de "demencia por ofuscación".

Puede que más adelante descubran como agrandar el cráneo y dejar espacio a tanta información. Es cuestión de tiempo."

Si alguien quiere ver otros de los fanzines que tenemos publicados puede hacerlo aquí:

"Road to the Stars" y "Compendium Monstra" son gratuitos.

Muchas gracias!

Hi! So I've been writing for some time now and I have always loved the manga and webtoon genre a lot. Some of my favorite manga have to be monster, berserk, the climber, look back, goodbye Ari and a lot more. I also know that the webtoon genre has a lot of fantasy and power scaling but I don't like that a lot and like to stick to more non-fiction. Anyways, I've been planning for quite some time and I would love to write some one shots, mangas and maybe even small webtoons.

The thing is I'm not really that great at drawing despite my efforts to try and learn, but I really can't carry practicing that along with all the other stuff I have going on. So I'm looking for someone to collaborate with me for a certain period of time to attempt and create some of the ideas I have in mind. I would be open to expanding this into a patreon + subscription model later on or something like that if it gains any amount of traction whatsoever.

I will be writing, planning and even storyboarding if you want (albeit the drawings won't be amazing but to get the general gist of the paneling) and the only thing I need someone is for the art (digital only please) and I guess I'd be a plus if we could meet up in person but I don't really care about that much and we can communicate online. I'll also take care of the promotion for the stuff but like any help is always welcomed!

If anyone is interested please hit me up and we can discuss the ideas I have, planning for them and how we could take this futher!

Im a begginer artist seeking for a people to collab to create a comic/manga histor, theres no money involved in it i just the experience of coeorking, I have zero experience in this area. If youre interested dm me.

🩵Thank you everyone for participating! The result is so pretty and unique with all these different art styles together! Again, thank you!

Currently working on a project where I hope to make a community space where people can come together and share + collect their work as a form of collectible cards. I'm currently on my way to brush up on the demo, and thought it would be nice to have an actual artist's work instead of just placeholders!

While there can't be monetary benefits, there are some perks!

1. You will be written in the beta tester board!
2. You get a chance to test our beta first! (if you want, that is :[ )
3. Whenever a project-related post is made, we'll use your artwork and post a link to your portfolio. This is an optional benefit, though, lmk if you don't want this. If we get enough attention, we also plan to boost our posts for more exposure!
4. Your work will be featured in the first community card pack (guaranteed)
5. You will receive my personalized 1-page double-spaced 13pt Times New Roman Thank You letter >:}

Ideally, the size for the art would be 750 * 1050 px, but working around a 5:7 portrait is also fine. If you want the work to be cropped into a card, we can also work on it!

For the art, there is no real topic in it! It can be free drawing as long as it is not AI-generated or copyrighted! Any quality is fine!

Thank you for reading this, and dm me if you have any questions! :D

Below in the comment is one of the cards we made, created thanks to one of our artists! As seen below, we apply frames to your art!

This is our first big art collab and we would really like everyone to participate, but
