Rescuing the Princess

It's the dead of night during Halloween that the tiny infant dabbled a bit. The night staff on the maternity ward was a little more sparse than usual, but nothing that they couldn't handle if an emergency truly happened. One such nurse did her rounds with a friend, checking the children in the baby room as they usually did, and nodded at a fellow nurse who mumbled a greeting they didn't quite catch. Which was fine. A lot of them felt like zombies themselves after a twelve hour shift or even more back to back. They simply assumed that nurse was doing their last rounds before they clocked up. A lot of them like looking in on the infants before they went. It cheered them up. Reminded them why they did this. The newest member of the bunch hadn't been the least bit fussy during the day and they expected that one of the other nurses would walk her around if she woke. Besides, it's safe there. There wasn't anything to worry about. The pair went on their break to watch some of

Oct 1, 2015

Fan Art Hello everyone! My name is Francesca Urbinati, nime080 (https://www.deviantart.com/nime080) on DeviantArt. I'm a professional artist and a freelancer on comics, illustrations and visual design. As a cartoonist, I'm used to mimicking dfferent styles to fit in big projects or established character designs. Today I want to share tips about drawing fan arts, capturing the essence of someone else's character while adding a bit of your personal touch. 1. Document about the characterGather graphic references as well as information about the character's personality: is he bold or shy? What fashion style does he wear the most? Does he have a typical facial expression or pose?

Doujinshi: How to make a fancomic and not die

Oct 3, 2015

Fan Art Week Reading fanfics about your favorite series or manga is kinda common, but sometimes you can find images of the manga that look genuine but show the characters in unusual situations that you would never see in the canon. These are the so called 'doujinshi' or fancomics. Before begin with tips and tricks about make a doujinshi, let's see some definitions: Doujin [同人] Japanese word which literally means a group of people with the same interests, but it is often used as a shorthand for doujinshi.

I have been drawing fan arts for as long as I remember. 2. What got you started working on Fan Art? People learn by imitating. As babies, we started learning to talk by imitating our parents. I started drawing the same way (by copying). When I started watching cartoons and anime, I can't help but be fascinated at the cute facial expressions, glorious outfits, graceful movements and colorful sceneries. I told myself: I also want to do something like that! I want to give life to somethi

Copyright Resources Compilation by Lyricanna, journal

Copyright Resources Compilation

Sep 30, 2015

Fan Art When we talk about Fan Art, the question of copyright tends to come up. There have been a lot of resources posted on the subject on DA over the years and sometimes they can be tricky to find. So this is a comprehensive compilation on the topic posted by staff, who have had legal consultation. I have left out older articles that are similar to the ones I included as the more recent ones would have the most accurate information. Policy DA's Copyright Policy Articles <- This is the big one, specific to Fan Art and it comes with video.

Original Characters, Fan Art and Submission

Sep 29, 2015

Fan Art Because DA has so many categories, I can guarantee that every artist has had a moment where they sit there, staring at the screen going "but this could fit 2 or 3 of those, how do I know where it should go?" Fan Art is especially confusing because every media based subcategory exists as other categories in the submission tree. When you throw Original Characters (OCs, also called Fan Characters), characters created by fans to exist in a universe copyrighted to someone else, the confusion only grows. Licensed art is the cherry on top of the messy submissions sundae. Hopefully I can untangle some of this for you below. What counts
