DD Suggestion Drive 2025 After years, we’ve finally brought back the Daily Deviation Suggestion Drive!  What is the Daily Deviation Suggestion Drive you might ask? In past events, many members of our art community came together and suggested an amalgamation of art from many different artists in hopes they would receive a Daily Deviation, but with the twist to see who can also suggest the most work in general to us CVs or Staff Members.

YCH (Your Character Here) artists don't just create art; they ignite your imagination with boundless possibilities. With each stroke of their pencil or brush, they sketch a scene, a moment, a pose that invites you to envision your character within it. It's not merely a commission; it's a collaborative journey where you and the artist co-author an unforgettable experience for your character. Welcome to this monthly feature where we spotlight the exceptional talents of YCH artists and their inspired creations. We invite you to immerse yourself in the imaginative worlds they've crafted for characters like yours. And, who knows? You might just discover a space for your own character to shine within their art! @DemonicKingdom Community Quotes Like fire like ice! - Very intense mix of blue colors there. I'm really surprised how perfectly discernable and different every detail is despite using mainly blue, which also happens to be my favorite color. Keep to good work up! :> -
