It’s not too late to join Artfight!
It’s almost July, which means Artfight season! Maybe you’ve joined before, maybe you’ve heard of it in passing but never joined, or maybe this is the first time you’re hearing of it! If you’re new to Artfight like I am, it’s not too late to join this year.
Artfight is an annual art trading event that anyone over 13 can join (same as Unvale) and draw artwork of other people’s OCs to get points for their team. Usually there are two teams that you can join when participating in Artfight, but this year there are three; the Comedy, Mystery and Tragedy teams. When you draw art for another person you get points for your team, and you get the most points when attacking the other team(s). While Artfight has looser rules about gore and nudity than Unvale, you can easily apply filters to hide anything you’re uncomfortable with. Artfight is also anti-AI like Unvale, so rest assured you’ll be in good hands.

Some things to keep in mind…

- You aren’t allowed to start drawing until the event begins, and you can get banned for starting early.
