I'm so happy you like it ^v^ I'll make sure to follow you so I don't miss it hehe!

Three exorcists in their combat uniforms face off against a fearsome Noah. One of the younger exorcists has been caught by the leg as he tries to escape through his portal. His comrade grabs him to pull him through on the other side while the youngest member covers them with her parasol as a shield. Inspired by the cult classic manga series D.gray-man by Katsura Hoshino.

14 total attacks this year? It's gotta be time for D.gray-man OC's! (as a treat~)

An anthropomorphized bird lady clutches her magic-blighted hand in pain. Her teachers' robes are weathered and worn with patches.

Revenge attack!
I received an attack from edriemo so I stumbled across their lady, Melody. I love her design but her story was what really gripped me! Read more here on her character page: artfight.net/character/67...

man, I really love those chicken and veggie pizzas with the white sauce. Something with peppers, onions, spinach, etc~ don't know how that'll look in the final piece but I'd love to see it!

I hope you're having a fantastic artfight this year and that all your characters get some love ♡ I'm so glad you like it!

The battle continues! This character belongs to Wren
( @cyaneus.bsky.social ) I can't resist a bird with arms and there's nothing I admire more than 1920's aesthetic <3 this character is a delight!
