Splinterlands Social Media Challenge! | 6th Year Anniversary!
Hello!
I want to greet SPL by creating fan art. ๐ Here, I drew myself with Rexxie suit with a strawberry birthday cake. ๐
Art Process
I started with a rough sketch of the pose. Here, I was thinking of what the cake would look like. I searched for multiple strawberry cakes for references. Next, I used a solid brush with different line weights for contrast.
I knew of Splinterlands when I joined Hive. I joined Hive almost two years ago. I was already seeing posts of the game and some artists joining the social media challenges and art contests.
I applied the base colors in different layers so that It is easier to render the shadows later. I like the combination of green and pink. They complement each other. Next is using an airbrush for the shadows in multiple mode. Here, I started working on the cake and on the eyes and blush.
I joined the art contest and social media challenge few months after joining Hive. Because of consistent entry, I discovered more of SPL's cards. It was overwhelming at first, but I got to used of it eventually. I can still remember the first time I was mentioned on the list of winners, and it was a nice feeling.
I decorated the cake with icing and a candle. Slowly rendering the cake itself and the Rexxie suit. Adding more shadows using an airbrush in lowered opacity.
Since I joined the art contest weekly, I met new friends and acquaintances. I used the winning prize packs and cards as rentals.
I wanted to play the cards but due to personal priorities and time constraints, I cannot play or monitor my cards. But looking at the brighter side, I like promoting Hive and SPL on social media platforms. I think that is one of my contributions to the blockchain. ๐
Final Art
On the background, I added confetti and garlands for added details. Here, I added the strawberries and colorful sprinkles to the cake. Lastly, added a glow on the candle and on the cake.
I do hope Splinterlands will have more, more birthdays to come! ๐ It has always been a part of my Hive journey.
Again, Happy 6th Birthday, Splinterlands!
