Art Fight 2026, 'Friendly Fire' attack wave spreads among artists

artJul 16, 20261421,002

Art Fight 2026 has opened with a Friendly Fire attack wave, a round where artists send playful "attacks" as artworks under the #ArtFight2026 tag. The gallery is heavy on character-focused fan and original-character pieces, from cute animals to fantasy figures. Concrete examples include Xael the Lucario, a "Prettiest Pig in the Pen" portrait, and a nurse-shark OC Catto rendered humanified as Serena. Expect varied styles such as a scarf-patterned Sasha portrait, a pixel-art duo showing magical suits for two magicians, and a vampire-themed Drystan with starry motifs.

⚔️ATTACK⚔️ Drystan for @raichana.bsky.social I have always wanted to draw Drystan. Look how cute he is!! I'm a sucker for vampires and stars so-- this was a joy to draw. #ArtFight2026 #ArtFight #TeamTragedy #MKArt #OriginalCharacter #ocArt #OCSky

A vampire, Drystan, clad in a cloak of stars and ruffles hovers several large orb shaped stars between his hands while he smiles upwards with a pleased sort of expression, eyes closed gently. He floats against the night sky, and smaller stars dot across it and his outfit like glittering sequins.

Trapped in the past A belated revenge disguised as an attack for @enihnguem.bsky.social >:) [ #artfight #brart #art #artfight2026 #teamcomedy #af26 ]

The main character in the illustration is Layla, who has her back to the viewer while light illuminates her from the right.

In the rectangles, there are two different pairs of eyes staring at the viewer, though they actually seem to be staring at each other.
