MangaHelpers Summer Art Contest - Summer Freestyle : Samhradh in éirinn















I had no clue what to do, so I decided to pick a photo from the ones I have taken in Ireland, this summer, but I couldnt decide, I felt none of them would really capture the theme of summer by themselves if I don't find a way to explain, link them to summer, so i went with this kind of travel/tourism slide.

Pics source / credits : me : taken with my dying P30 :arf
1st pic - Birr castle garden
2nd - Lahinch town ( close to Cliffs of Moher)
3rd - A video I've taken of Diarmuid Guinan a local singer one evening (very nice gentleman btw)
4th - Dublinia Viking Museum
5th - Cliffs of Moher ( sadly it was a cloudy day, I couldnt get the best pics)
6th- Galway National Aquarium

I had hard times changing the video into gif, the file was too big, I had to resize it a lot, but here a bigger size, but I can't embed it bigger file

MangaHelpers Summer Art Contest - Summer Freestyle: Epic Seven Summer by Valhalla




So that Erin-chan wont be lonely in this competition :xp
Been a while since i did a set in the art contest so i decided to do one.
Bellona, or in this case Seaside Bellona, or Summer Bellona, or SS Bellona for short, or BAEllona, or best EpicSeven girl/waifu, is my fav unit in the game so why not make a set, am i right :cool:

I used these pics for the set:
pic1
pic2
pic3
pic4
Everything else was done in photoshop, effects, borders, colors etc.

MangaHelpers Summer Art Contest (Freestyle) - Dawn by Trien




Feeling the dearth of entries lately, and haven't been able to be as active in participating as much as I would like, so here's a picture taken from a camping trip this summer. Had to get up at 5am to catch this shot. :)

(Finally replaced my aging Lumix DMC-LF1! This photo taken on a Sony RX100M7)

MangaHelpers Summer Art Contest - Summer Freestyle: One Summer's Day (Arrangement for Clarinet Choir) by SirSamuel016



I keep getting told I should participate more and do some more music things here so here is part of an arrangement of Joe Hisaishi's One Summer's Day from Spirited Away that I've been working on! It's a bit scuffed and not a proper master or anything like that (and not the full song), but I still hope you enjoy my submission!

I wanted to do a musical submission for this contest but I wasn't vibing with my original works I was writing, so I decided to opt for arranging this lovely Hisaishi work.

Process involved me notating everything from scratch in MuseScore, and then recorded everything into Ableton Live 11 Lite.
