Hello everyone!
My name is Alif Mahmud, and I’m from Dhaka. I am currently a second-year student at an art college and the only child of my parents. Ever since my childhood, I’ve been passionate about art, and today, I’m thrilled to share my first post in the Holozing community on Hive.blog.
Discovering Hive and Holozing Community
Last year, I was searching for a blockchain platform where I could share my artworks. I came across Hive.blog and signed up right away after learning about it on Twitter and exploring it further on YouTube. While browsing posts on Hive, I discovered the Holozing community and was amazed by the incredible fan art people create of their favorite characters.
The Holozing community is truly unique. Everyone adds their own creative twist to their fan art, drawing inspiration from Holozing's lore and characters. This inspired me to contribute my own artwork, and I’m delighted to present my version of the Naara character.
I also came across this inspiring Holozing post, which featured the reveal of a new creature and showcased the creativity within the community. Posts like this motivated me to bring my own artistic interpretations to life and share them with you all.
About My Naara Fanart
Today, I’m sharing my fanart of Naara, one of the characters from the Holozing community. I’ve added my own creative touch to it while staying true to its original design. Here’s how I created it:
Body: I used a mix of light and dark brown shades for the main body.
Antlers and Flowers: Brown for the antlers, with pink accents for the flowers.
Tail and Leaf Details: Vibrant green shades for the leafy elements.
Hooves: A bright pink for a striking, playful touch.
Eyes: Black and white for depth and expression.
Original
Steps in the Process:
Base Colors: I applied watercolors to create the foundation.
Details and Highlights: I used fine brushes for shading, highlighting,
and adding small details like the blush on Naara’s back.
Finishing Touches: After the paint dried,
I outlined the artwork with a fine black pencil for definition.
Color Used:
A set of watercolor paints (as shown in the image).
Brushes of varying sizes for different levels of detail.
A high-quality drawing sheet to bring the artwork to life.
Why Naara?
Naara’s design and personality resonated with me. The combination of its graceful deer-like features and nature-inspired elements (like the leafy tail and antlers) made it an ideal choice for me as an artist who loves blending animals with fantasy.
My Journey with Holozing
The Holozing community has inspired me greatly. Not only do I love the artwork and characters, but I also admire how this community thrives on creativity and storytelling. The concept of creating art for characters with rich lore adds depth and makes every post feel meaningful. I hope to grow as an artist by contributing more fan art and connecting with fellow creators in this community.
Acknowledgments and Gratitude
I’d like to thank the administrators and contributors of the Holozing community for creating such an inspiring space. Your creativity and dedication motivate newcomers like me to participate. A special thanks to the creators of Hive.blog for providing this incredible platform for artists like us.
Future Plans
Moving forward, I plan to share more original artworks and fan arts in this community. I’m excited to explore new characters and bring my artistic interpretations of them to life. I look forward to your feedback, which will help me improve as an artist.
I hope you enjoy my first post in the Holozing community! Thank you for welcoming me into this wonderful space.😊
With a bouquet of flowers in my hands, I send my heartfelt greetings to everyone in this beautiful community. Thank you for welcoming me so warmly. I look forward to your support and encouragement as I continue my artistic journey with you. 🌸
