I'm trying to paint Madeline from Celeste https://canvas.fediverse.events/#tu=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2F4y3c81hC%2Fimage.png&tw=16&tx=408&ty=180&ts=NUMBERS&x=416&y=188&zoom=1 Madeline's standing sprite Fun fact: if I directed the Brazilian dub for a Celeste movie, I would fight for my life to make Madeline be called Madalena.

Is the Discord/Matrix link optional?

[–] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

it is optional, but suggested

[–] P4ulin_Kbana@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 20 hours ago

okay then, I'm going to post a template link, but I won't be able to use those platforms

[For when the canvas expands]

Big Original Boykisser

There are not nearly enough boykissers up until now. To fix this, I propose a fairly big boykisser for when the canvas doubles. This is the original version of the boykisser, back when they hypnotised to viewer. Assuming that the canvas will double to the right at 06:00 CEST (in 5,5h at time of writing), here's a possible Template:

To discuss the making of it, I've created a Matrix Room:

If this is interfering with someone elses plans, please notify me ASAP.

Well, this is awkward. The canvas didn't expand.

I'm always surprised how chill it is here. The exact opposite of Place, as far as I remember. I threw this out there and drew the outline. Filled in a couple inside pixels, but then fun and helpful strangers carried it all the way through to completion. And it survived to the end even. Nice!

  • Group name : Feditrain
  • Project : we build a long train or several one, and put our avatar above it. The train will run on flag. Think it as a train that transport us and our message through ActivityPub road.
  • We leaved matrix for Zulip (better thread support and organization. But no federation between servers). So no group yet.
  • Snoopy has plenty cool picture allowing an endless gif to express our feelings and he is a warm type writter

I need to draw the template and test the train scale so our avatar won't be very small.

Some picture. The train model (we could choose multiple model and it is a solarpunk idea) :
the feditrain

And above that train, on each wagon, we put our avatars in pixelart. For example, i will draw this snoopy :

Here is the result :)

screenshoot of the train along our avatars : binette, oeil, snoopy, innermeerkat
