Hang in there, struggling artists

With that, #swordtember is complete! It was a whole lot of fun to do a daily challenge, been such a long time since I kept up with one! Had a lot of cool designs, which was your favorite?

#swordtember day 30: Winter. A blade of piercing winter wind, swirling and chilling you to the bone as you wield it. Wear gloves.

#swordtember day 29: Fall. What does stone and earth have to do with fall? Uh, where to leaves fall onto? Yeah. So there.

#swordtember day 28: Summer. A blade made of summer flame, as good for killing as it can be for grilling.

Thanks for hosting! 😊 Here is Karen, the Specialist soldier from one of my board game projects in the Star Troopers series. She is expert in melee/close range combat.

Happy Birthday Vin 🥳🍰🎈 Enjoy your special day ✨ Thank you for the #artshare 💙 I'm Mirin with some of my sweet sexy ladies 😊 Hope you like them (I draw SFW & NSFW)

Happy Birthday🎉!! I'm TheOniMask and I draw Fanart, OCs, and NSFW Pinup art. The First one is one I did this month of my main OC Akama with her Cursed Sword. the others are my older drawings of my favorite Swords/Weapons

Happy Birthday! And thanks for artshare! Not part of the challenge, but here is what I did in time @elleylie.elderscrolls.social @sarahdraws8.bsky.social @lightvick.bsky.social @lauramellinatelier.bsky.social @toffat.bsky.social

#swordtember day 27: Spring. A magic spring of water that forms a blade. Always moving and rushing, it's keen blade can cut through many tough materials with ease.

Happy Birthday and thanks for the #artshare I'm Chris im from the UK and I'm currently working on my first comic called Icons. I haven't got much sword art atm. But here's Lady Hex, an #OC of mine, who's mission is to guard Excaliber until the true owner is found. And #HeavyMetal 's Taarna

Happy birthday! I don't have that much sword drawings, but I hope it is okay to show you some of my personal favorite arts I've made this year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! and Thanks for the ArtShare! Hi, I'm Alex! I do the arts (mostly Fanart), I like comics, and I say dumb stuff. I haven't done many pieces with sword⚔️

Thanks for the artshare! I’m an artist trying to get commissions to pay bills and help my furbabies! ko-fi.com/manaminoriart Don’t really have much sword art, so but I do have this old art.

only got one sword thing from a long time ago, was a commission

🎂It's my birthday today, so I'm hosting an artshare! 🎂 ⚔️ I've been doing #swordtember, so show me your faves from this month if you've been doing the challenge! Or just any Swordjacent art in general! ⚔️ Comment, like, and share peoples art! The usual stuff! #artshare

#swordtember day 26: Harpy. A blade fashioned to claw and gauge like the talon of a harpy. Was gonna make the handle neat and be fitted for an actual harpy foot but eh.

#swordtember day 25: Bubble. More of a magical focus, healers and other supporty types can focus their shielding magic onto this weapon, morphing it into shape they can muster. This particular one is, of course, a sword.

#swordtember day 24: Venom. A crooked, claw like blade that constantly oozes a deadly venom. Gets to be a bit cumbersome eventually, it just gets venom everywhere.

A classic birb for #Bisibility day. This one was always my favorite when I did all the LGBTQIA, mostly because I love galarian moltres, and I am bi obviously! I don't do a lot of art that relates to that for me really, so it felt nice to really go all out for this one.

#swordtember day 23: Owl. Like an owl, this blade makes nary a sound as its swung, making it perfect for a sneak attack in the dead of night.

#swordtember day 22: Swan. Truly a blade of elegance and grace.

#swordtember day 21: ring. Does this count as a sword? Either way channeling that Tira energy from Soul Caliber.

#swordtember day 20: Vapor(wave). Could resist to tap back into the aesthetic for this one. #sword #vaporwave

#swordtember day 19: membrane. If you wield this sword it will hold you back! Forever! F̴̨̜̜̝̬͈̟̩̺͇̗͆̐̐̑̒̀̓̉̅͛̿͗̚͜O̸̢̨̹̪̓̀̃̌͋̿̓̚̚͝R̷̞̳̫͎̮̱̣̩͈͈̗̻̆̓̅̄̀̂̋̂Ę̸͎̺̭͚̱̻̜̩͍̅͛͌͑͘ͅV̸̛̦̆̇̂̆̈̿̊͂̌̊̾͗̚E̸̡̪̻̥̪̫̱̱͓̊̋̑͆̽̆̄̈́̍̐̚͘R̴̨̩̮̘͚̱̭̳͎̟̖̽̅̚ͅ #sword #membrane

#swordtember day 18: Beetle. A strange blade that mixes chemicals in its hilt to release an alluring scent to bladed head beetles. The concoction will splatter on your enemy during a fight, sending a bunch of bugs to start attacking them as well. Just don't get any on yourself.

#swordtember day 17: Gem. A spell blade imbued with a harlequin opal. Better for casting then it is for stabbing.

Boss for an arc I'm running! I wish you could actually get the legatus armor in game, maybe they'll do it eventually. #ffxivrp

#swordtember day 16: carved. An ornate sword carved from a big geode. I think it turned out alright, could've bene better but you know its a geode.

Man it feels like I haven't done a ton of art this year, but just so much of it is FFXIV rp stuff I had to make I guess lol

Artists! Please show: ✨ The first piece you made in 2025 ✨ Your favourite piece of the year ✨ Your most popular piece of the year ✨ And your most recent piece!

#swordtember day 15: Lace. Sexy and deadly in a handheld package.

#swordtember day 14: Rot. There's a grotesque beauty in rot and decay. Colorful molds and fungi reducing matter down so that it may be used as nutrients to grow again. #sword #rot #mold

#swordtember day 13: Bloom. The sword cactus in bloom makes a fine and sturdy weapon. You can also get some water from it in a pinch.

A late entry for #swordtember day 12: concealed! A blade wreathed in shadows, able to easily vanish in the dark just to strike again. Just don't drop it in the dark you'll probably lose it.

If you see this, QRP with your #OC smiling!✨

#swordtember day 11: Reliquary. A holy sword that houses a relic inside. Maybe even a smaller holier sword. The main sword didn't come from a bigger reliquary sword though, at least they don't think so.

Why does Nintendo have to be such a gross company?

#swordtember day 10: rodent. The black blade of the dread pirate Rat Beard, named because he had rats in his beard. At least one anyway. That one time.

#swordtember day 9: Feline. Said to be the claw of some cat god of some sort. Or it's just cursed, maybe both even!

#swordtember day 8: Canine. A great sword with a carving of the goodest of boys. I was gonna color it like an actual saint Bernard, but it made it look like a decapitated head on a sword and was sort of a bummer.

[Artists, if you see this post something RED!] the rumbler is red it is a red rumbler

🟥Artists, if you see this post something RED!🟥 Quite fond of this pixel one, I ought to do some more ones like this after Swordtember.
