creative-discussion

[thin dagger]

[versed mist]

my outlines look so childish

lol

realism will forever escape me

[thin dagger]

hmmmmm i dont think so! :0 it looks nice

[serene radish]

It looks awesome!

[thin dagger]

whoaaaa! that looks so cool!!

[versed mist]

this is what happens when freehand is done

.>

[thin dagger]

im diggin ur style

[thin dagger]

looks great!!!

[versed mist]

the same ruins are below

what's the rules on art in this here creative discussion

lol

I thought to post something "tasteful" but..

decided to withhold it

lol

[thin dagger]

should be in pinned messages

in both creative and creative discussion

[versed mist]

guidelines seem okay with tasteful

i guess o.O

i'm going to go ahead and add some censorship before hand

lol

[thin dagger]

as long as its not too nsfw!

[lucid drum]

kef that's some cool shading

here's the wip,,

[thin dagger]

oh im lovin that

[versed mist]

I made some modifications before posting

.>

[thin dagger]

oh yeah thats fine

it looks awesome!

[versed mist]

I draw alot of Dark Elfs

and Drow

.> my favorite fantasy characters

[thin dagger]

dark elves are cool

[versed mist]

the time has come!

I've made 12/100 weapons time to take a creative power nap

[versed mist]

Should we add more 16 bit style chests to the game?

I designed about 200 chests for previous projects

[serene radish]

omg yes

I would love that so much over the recolored chests

[thin dagger]

those would b sick

[devout bridge]

Oo

[dim lantern]

wouldn't be too hard to work them in thanks to Content Patcher now

[versed mist]

WIP - Socketable Gem - Sapphire

1:1 scale

larger for your viewing pleasure

thoughts?

is this sparkly enough to be a gem?

[onyx island]

Ohh is that for a game? 😮

[versed mist]

This Gem is a Sapphire for Stardew Valley

as one doesn't exist

And it will be used in crafting in conjunction with my new weapons

[onyx island]

Ohh nice!

I would make it darker

like this one for example hehe https://www.doamore.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/cushion-blue-sapphire.jpg

[versed mist]

https://ak8.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/14075108/thumb/1.jpg

was using this as a ref

[onyx island]

Ohh

[versed mist]

sphere cut sapphire

aren't as dark

more sides more light

[onyx island]

Ohh yeah hehe

[versed mist]

this is what it'll be used like

with gem

[onyx island]

Ohh sweet!

[versed mist]

without

[onyx island]

hehe looks a lot fancier with the gemstones, I like it!

[versed mist]

probably going to use 3 gems the ruby, the sapphire i'm making now, and the emerald

i think that looks a bit cleaner

it had a line of pixels that looked a bit bad beofre

i softened the colors

darker just to see how it compares

[onyx island]

Ohh

[versed mist]

hmm i think the darker does look better

[onyx island]

[versed mist]

it accents the highlights i added

[onyx island]

it looks nice indeed!

[versed mist]

in 1:1 scale these things look so insignificant

can barely tell what the changes are

[unkempt tinsel]

i also like the darker one

[lone mountain]

that rp group i joined is pretty dead so i did all that work for nothing LOL

[onyx island]

Darn :(

[lament turtle]

oog

[echo mesa]

Drawing outside in winter: Not a great idea, Im
McCold can barely use hands 2 draw

[thin dagger]

[echo mesa]

Im gonna have 2 retreat and draw inside lol

[rich delta]

Jev I know that pain :c Every single rp group I joined died really quick, so I gave up on them

[frigid depot]

Oh no Jev :c

If you like Pokemon I know a group that's still active

[lone mountain]

[frigid depot]

Oh...

But then again my nicknames always have max or yogurt in them somehow

[cloud flicker]

did i break a rule

or is my discord glitching

[lament turtle]

I don’t think you broke a rule what makes you say that

[cloud flicker]

i cant see the stuff i posted o -o

[lament turtle]

Hmm

[cloud flicker]

and yeah thats true thats how i know its u max LOL

[lament turtle]

I think it’s just discord acting up bc I don’t think there’s any evidence to point to the fact that you broke a rule

Nfjcnskdfndof I’m glad my art is Iconic like that

[cloud flicker]

oh it probably is im also on my phone so

[lament turtle]

[mighty bronze]

[strong ingot]

[onyx island]

Ohh I like that!

Could use something similar for my own style to draw consistently for a change lol

[echo mesa]

Did a sketch Im rather proud of last night

[onyx island]

Looks so good! I love that background 😮

[onyx oxide]

My Farmer

[echo mesa]

[echo mesa]

[frosty merlin]

Hey y'all I'm back from gay weeb camp for gay weebs Japanese immersion camp, so I've been speaking Japanese for about 5 weeks straight and so I apologize for my not so great English, but I'm back and ready to make more music! I specifically want to @thin dagger bc it was a super long time ago but your art of my OC was literally the perfect thing I needed coming back, it nearly made me cry it was so good and I want to thank you specifically for that!
Other than that, looking through all of the art in #art-gallery has got me so pumped! Seeing all of this beauty is really inspiring me to jump right in and do stuff! Y'all are really super powerful, keep it up, and I look forward to sharing more music with you!

[vagrant acorn]

welcome back friendo!!!

[lament turtle]

Worm!!

I’m on my way to getting back my artisan role

I hope I get it back soon tbh

[frosty merlin]

Also I got tagged in adventurers guild, and I looked and there was something about someone wanting me to do a Spoon theme?? Was that a real thing, or a meme? Bc I'd be totally down for that

[onyx island]

[thin dagger]

i cant wait to see!!

[tawny condor]

hhhhhhhhoookay this is a wip that i accidentally put in the creative channel

and like @ripe canyon basically what i mean by overblend was that i kinda went a lil crazy with the blender tool in photoshop and the contrast w/ the color of her hair is like, muddier than it should be?

like i havent painted in a while and this used to be something that i'd do without meaning to a lot when i was a beginner, so im worried that since i got rusty i fell into old habits smh

[ripe canyon]

i feel u

sorry i was playing slime rancher woops

i wouldnt worry about it right away

finish the rest of the drawing then come back to it

[thin dagger]

also if u feel like u overblended some stuff, what i do is i just go back to using a nonblended tool (or one that doesnt blend a lot) and paint places that are too overblended and that usually fixes it for me

and if needed go back to the blending tool and go back and forth with those tools until you get what u want

[rich delta]

base colors DONE except for my bf's pokeball, still gotta ask him what his fav one is orz
idk if i want to actually shade this or not, still debating. i might go with it tho

[thin dagger]

wow this looks so great!!

[rich delta]

alkdsjf thank you

[lone mountain]

working on a greninja gijinka

[past musk]

I love it jev

[thin dagger]

lov smol ponytail

[elfin swan]

aw jev it’s so cute

[frigid depot]

Awwww Jev he looks great

[strong ingot]

Always blessed by jev art

[lone mountain]

outfit concepts wheezes

[frigid depot]

Outfits are so hard for me to decide upon lol

[strong ingot]

Who needs outfits anyways

[devout bridge]

nekkie or bust

[haughty tendon]

ok guys i need h e l p

i stil have no idea what anatomy is so i need help

this arm looks off and i have no idea why

[thin dagger]

it’s too short and it needs to be foreshortened i believe

if you look at the other arm the elbow is a lot farther down

[haughty tendon]

i don't know how to foreshorten in this situation ;;

[storm meadow]

hi i'm late but

but if we are trying to match with the right side... hmm

I think your new one is good

It also depends on how your shading goes. Good luck Callie

[mighty bronze]

Omg @rich delta it looks really amazing so far!!you go girl!

And i don't judge you Callie,arms are a real pain

But i think soy made it look better

[storm meadow]

gosh I actually tried to pose and it was painful

[mighty bronze]

Now it's too much,i mean the first one look better

[storm meadow]

I tried to match the right hmmm

[thin dagger]

yeah foreshortening is so hard

[storm meadow]

how far is the sword from the body tho

Like I said, it may get better once the colors fill in. Lineart looks funky at times.

[mighty bronze]

Aha

[haughty tendon]

i have line art 😭

[storm meadow]

I'm defeated

[haughty tendon]

the sword is right against the body

[storm meadow]

oh now it's another story

[haughty tendon]

or, somewhere close to the body

[urban minnow]

that looks right to me

[storm meadow]

glad I have a fullbody mirror

now I need a sword

[haughty tendon]

lol

[urban minnow]

same

i miss my mirror closet doors

[haughty tendon]

i tried to take a picture with me holding the end of a body towel but its so hard to take a picture with a floppy sword

[urban minnow]

i'd look at renaissance fairs

there are nice looking swords that arent too expensive

[haughty tendon]

i dont think i need to purchase a sword in order to draw this haha

[urban minnow]

understandable lol

[haughty tendon]

i've been trying to draw this arm for,, 2 hours ??

[storm meadow]

I'm sorry Callie I need to leave for dinner ;-;
I'd love to see this lady once you get this issue solved
gonna be marvelous

[haughty tendon]

thank you ;;

i appreciate the help though !!

[urban minnow]

i gotta remind myself to save for a sword for reference

not for posing like a dork and swinging it around or anything hah

haha...

[haughty tendon]

a sword would be really handy for references but i have a small room and no storage ;;

[urban minnow]

rip in peace

[strong ingot]

if all else you could probably use a like a stick atleast for poses

but also swords...

[haughty tendon]

i should really take a break from drawing

i held a bunch of paintbrushes and posed for a hand/arm reference

it works

[storm meadow]

Reference stocks on DA maybe

[lone mountain]

progress

[urban minnow]

FLOOF

very nice design

[frigid depot]

A good boy

[tawny condor]

He looks v soft

[strong ingot]

How do I get a long scarf that flows behind me

[versed mist]

thoughts on a katar

omg

it's 2 small

lol

I made a couple blades

well 2

haven't made variations of the handle

thoughts on the idea of a Katar weapon?

[onyx island]

Looks nice! I had no idea what a katar was until now hehe

[versed mist]

@onyx island any constructive criticism for improving the design?

[onyx island]

Maybe add some golden details on the part of the blade next to the handle? idk how much room you have to work with to add details though

[versed mist]

16x16 pixels

the size of the white area

[onyx island]

yeah it doesn't look like you could add too many details in such a small area but still it looks good as is

[versed mist]

changed some details

didn't like that purple gem

[onyx island]

Ohh I like it

it's like the golden area is a bit bigger than before, and kinda matches the size of the darker golden area :o

[versed mist]

the handles are wood

[onyx island]

Ohh I thought they were metal hehe

[versed mist]

copper katar

Metal handle

maybe not.. that darkk

maybe?

yeah i like it with the wooden handle still

[waxen veldt]

I like it with that handle especially cos of the little blue center detail

[versed mist]

Gold Katar

[onyx island]

Ohh I like the contrast there

[onyx island]

I like the one with the darker handle for the gold version, I like the contrast it gives

[versed mist]

Iridium

well it was bound to happen that i would post a 16x16 again

[onyx island]

🤣 it's ok

[onyx island]

I like the first version

[thin dagger]

i like either 1 or 2!

[versed mist]

Dual Blade Katar

[onyx island]

Double the stabbing!

[versed mist]

copper

stabby stab stab!

[onyx island]

I like the darker handles when the colors of the blades are warm hehe

[versed mist]

gold

.> the iridium one looks slightly inapropreate

especially being a fist weapon

[frail adder]

Lmao

[versed mist]

Prismatic?

this looks much better

[onyx island]

Ohh yes!

[versed mist]

that will be a unique

[haughty tendon]

im out of lineart hell

[versed mist]

Ooo

[thin dagger]

its lookin great!!!!

[versed mist]

That's looking nice

[onyx island]

Yay, you survived! And it looks great!

[versed mist]

Prismatic Trident (fishable)

[onyx island]

Ohh fancy!

[haughty tendon]

thank you guys ;;

[versed mist]

Prismatic Dual Blade Claymore

[onyx island]

Ohh looks very fancy too!

[versed mist]

25/100 weapons created for the 100 new weapons weapon pack

[serene radish]

Those look so great

[onyx island]

holy shit, them are a lot of weapons

[fading hawk]

im alive

[onyx island]

Yay!

[thin dagger]

clownnnnnnnnnnnn

i miss u and ur artttttttttt

[vagrant acorn]

i was about to go to bed but i saw this room light up

glad to see you even for a moment Clown, hope you're doing well

[fading hawk]

Aw guys wtf

Y'all are so sweet

Sorry I've been gone I've honestly been in a huge creative slump

[thin dagger]

awww no need to be sorry clown!! i hope youre out of that huge creative slump! if not now, then soon!!

[onyx island]

I'm on the same predicament, huge art block, so I totally understand hehe

[haughty tendon]

wippu

gosh i want to sleep but i dont know if i should keep going or sleep and keep my pc open

[serene radish]

Looks really good

[thin dagger]

its great so far!!

i think u should rest up!

[onyx island]

I'd say you go to sleep

You'll be fresh and stress free next time to finish it!

[haughty tendon]

thanks guys

[onyx island]

💚

[haughty tendon]

and also, yeah i probably shouldnt rush it

off to bed i go !

[thin dagger]

nighty night callie!

[serene radish]

Gnite callie!

[haughty tendon]

goodnight fam

[onyx island]

Gnight Callie!

[waxen veldt]

I wish I could draw what my cat just did.

because I don't think there's a precedent for it. I certainly couldn't find it in google.

.... she broke a sink.

[thin dagger]

awww

[waxen veldt]

there's many things I could ave believed a cat could break.

Until tonight, a sink was not among them.

[thin dagger]

lmao i mean

my cats flooded my apartment before

cats are capable of anything

[waxen veldt]

They truly are

But now there's a hole in the bathroom sink :C

and it is essentially unuseable!

[versed mist]

currently coded weapons for upcoming weapon pack

let me know if you have any design input for any of them

[onyx island]

Are they upgradeable weapons or you just have a chance to have them dropped of a certain material?

[versed mist]

upgradeable

[waxen veldt]

so... colorful

[versed mist]

I think I will work on some Katana's tomorrow

after finishing up adding the dual blade katar's

There will be 3 fist weapons coming in this pack Katars, Gauntlets and claws

my claws looked bad on my first attempt so I scrapped them lmao

16x16 pixels is stressful to work with

so little detail can be squeezed into that small area

[waxen veldt]

Hear, hear.

I've had that with my cats.

the cat sprite is about 19*19, so it even has a few more pixels. even then it's hard.

[mighty bronze]

Lol i saw the message on my sketchbook just now 😂

[mellow loom]

there were some things about Marnie's portraits that i didn't like so i started to redo them. rn I am mostly done with the base but I'm looking for feedback because I know there are things that can be improved. goals were mostly to make her plumper and her hair bushier to better match the overworld sprites

[shadow sail]

aww she looks so cute!

[serene radish]

Aww I really like how subtle yet effective the changes are

[shadow sail]

(Also dang it’s been a hot minute since I’ve been in this channel helo art fam ❤️)

honestly to me the new sprite/portrait looks great and there really isn’t anything -wrong- with it that I can see?

[rich delta]

How do people render like I just had to do it for the first time and wew is it annoying

also hoi red o/

[shadow sail]

hoi rio 💖

[mellow loom]

i'm just nervous to start working on the rest bc if i notice something off then i'll need to fix it on like 6 sprites instead of 1

[shadow sail]

I hear ya!! Having another set of eyes is always very helpful in catching things that don’t look right

[rich delta]

@vagrant acorn i don't put watermark sigs on stuff when it's a commissioner piece ;o since then it's theirs to do what they wish for it since they paid /o/ imo anyway

[vagrant acorn]

i fee ya dats a good idea tbh!

[haughty tendon]

so i'm trying to upload my drawing but discord thinks its inappropriate

aa what

[onyx island]

smh Clyde being an ass again lol

[hearty wasp]

yeah the dang image filter is mean sometimes

[pastel elbow]

[hearty wasp]

I think it should be fine to post

[pastel elbow]

I should invite her but larger servers freak her out a bit

[vagrant acorn]

we don't bitehard

[pastel elbow]

[hearty wasp]

deviant art or something

[pastel elbow]

I was gonna link her tumblr if that's fine?

[storm meadow]

[versed mist]

Thoughts of this gauntlet

[waxen veldt]

The palette is gorgeous, but the edges don't look very... gauntlety just yet? I think?

[versed mist]

edges?

this is a profile view you can see the thumb on the bottom there and the other fingers on top

[waxen veldt]

Yeah, the edges of the fingers are what looks more like a blade than a finger

unless they're supposed to be claws

[versed mist]

it's a gauntlet for attacking so without claws >.> it wouldn't really work

i mean i guess it could have been a punching fist

[waxen veldt]

Well, then the bottom looks just fine. The top fingers, though look cropped.

... Seriously, though, what a gorgeous palette.

[versed mist]

no just blunt

i wanted to make it look sharp but if i do then it looks 2 short

this is 16x16 pixels

[waxen veldt]

Yeah, I know

[versed mist]

That's real size :/

[waxen veldt]

Ah, looks nice!

I think there's a rogue pixel (in my view, at least) that'd make it look more like fingers, but I need to see it, give me a moment

hm.... what do you think if you try to like... see the last column of pixels in the top fingers?

Delete the bottom grey pixel of the last column of the top fingers. Do you think that looks better?

I mean, you know the full thing that you're trying to draw there.

It looks better to me, but it may be that I just have this to see.

[versed mist]

that's drawn from scratch o.o

xD no refrence

[waxen veldt]

Yes, I know, but you have the full mental image 😛

Like... in your head, this is full-resolution 😛

I only have those 16*16 pixels 😛

[versed mist]

ah

yeah

that does make it look more like an open hand..

maybe it was a rogue pixel >.>

maybe i just drew it bad

you'll never KNOW!

[waxen veldt]

Nah, it was a rogue pixel

It's too pretty to be drawn bad.

[versed mist]

the background color also may change ur perception of the gauntlet

😉

maybe you can see it now

[onyx island]

oh yeah absolutely lol

[waxen veldt]

looks great!

[onyx island]

looks pretty good indeed!

[versed mist]

so ive been debating to try and blend that hard L that's brown near the fingers

I was hoping you would say that that part looked bad

xD

[waxen veldt]

mmm....

[versed mist]

to give me the reason to change it

[waxen veldt]

let me think.

idk, I think moving it might change the whole shape.

[versed mist]

Prismatic Gauntlet may be possible lol

everyone loves rainbow weapons

okay maybe just me

lol

[waxen veldt]

rainbow everything is great 😄

I even made rainbow cats.

[edgy geyser]

I’m trying to learn Japanese (I haven’t written in a long time sorry if it looks messy)

[thin dagger]

oh cool!

on your own or thru a class?

[edgy geyser]

On my own! Just to try and get the very basics before i take a class at college :0

[thin dagger]

oh sweet!! good luck fry!!

[storm meadow]

good luck!

I'm trying to find my way back to my style(s) after not drawing for a long time

So here's another attempt. My first farmer Zuzu

[onyx island]

Me too. At least I started to work on a drawing, hopefully I'll finish it soon x.x

[thin dagger]

omg they look so lovely!!!!!

[onyx island]

She's a cutie!

[storm meadow]

thank you guys!

[thin dagger]

oh???? i can’t wait to see it makco!!!

[storm meadow]

and yes please Makco! I'd love to see it!

[onyx island]

Soon™

[past musk]

it looks really cute

[onyx island]

For now I just need some sleep. Good night lovelies. Yes, that includes you too Zaph

[thin dagger]

nighty night makco!

[past musk]

nighty

[storm meadow]

Thanks Zaph

[serene radish]

Omg soy she looks so cute

[storm meadow]

[versed mist]

I forgot to make Katanas Today

o well xD

[versed mist]

possibly failed attempt

this just doesn't feel like a katana

[serene radish]

Yeah... Too short and too broad for a katana but thats due to how little working space you have with the sprite, I really like the color choice tho!

[waxen veldt]

oh yes

much much better katana

oof. finally fixed most of the jigsaw puzzle that was a big chunk of the sink my cat destroyed.

It gives me an idea for one of my SV characters.

Their issue being dealing with an extraordinarily naughty cat.

[serene radish]

Yeah thats a big improvement

[waxen veldt]

one that they onyl keep because they know it's a stray and who'd even want to keep such a naughty cat anyways?

so they can't bear to let it go, but the cat does all sorts of terrible things.

[fleet gazelle]

That’s good soy

[versed mist]

it had to be done

[waxen veldt]

of course it did

my approval means nothing

but

i totally approve

[versed mist]

Copper, Steel, Gold, Prismatic

I'm going to expand on this HOLE...Y sword

[fleet gazelle]

No.. why the pun

[versed mist]

xD

it's got a hole >.>

lol

[fleet gazelle]

Ik

[versed mist]

you don't like puns?

[versed mist]

hmm

trying to design a proper guard for this thing

[thin dagger]

that looks great!

allso guys what kind of facial expression do u think this is?

https://i.imgur.com/dXlCK9O.png

[versed mist]

is that a horney face?

j/k

It seems mischievous

[thin dagger]

hmmmm oke

im tryin to go for "flirtatiously mischievious"

[versed mist]

and i thought horney face first xD

so

maybe it's spot on?

LMAO

[thin dagger]

isee isee

[versed mist]

[versed mist]

[jolly haven]

Thats hot
No homo

[storm meadow]

lmao

thank you!

[lucid drum]

Someone give me motivation to draw nice things like that. All i can think of are terrible bad things.

[storm meadow]

draw all the things

[lucid drum]

I dont want to

[storm meadow]

aww

[lucid drum]

I want to draw nice things i can show to people

[storm meadow]

I love drawings of food

[lucid drum]

Not the things in my head

[storm meadow]

but I'm not very good at it

[jolly haven]

Hmm

Make up fun scenarios?

[lucid drum]

I cant draw food so ovt of the qvestion

[jolly haven]

And draw them

[storm meadow]

I love abstract art as well and I might be able to give you constructive comments on it

[lucid drum]

@jolly haven i cant make up fun scenes

[jolly haven]

Then just take inspiration from somewhere. Dont need to make it up

[lucid drum]

All the inspiration is dried up

I cry

[storm meadow]

hmmm

[jolly haven]

Turn your things in your head into something silly so it wont be as bad

[lucid drum]

Wheeze

How

[storm meadow]

I love browsing instagram for color inspiration

yes I agree

let it out

[lucid drum]

Give me an axample??

[jolly haven]

Well give me an example of whats in your head

Then i will think of a scenario

[lucid drum]

Uh..

[storm meadow]

pull out your pad and pen/pencil and let your hand works

[lucid drum]

Relly not good with these rules on this server

Its all really sensitvie topics

[jolly haven]

Lightest thing you can think of. ?

[lucid drum]

And when i pull out paper and pencil my hand freezes! Its terrible block but all i want to do is draw

[jolly haven]

Do you watch animes? Maybe slice of life shows will bright3n you up

[lucid drum]

I dont like the art style and all the plots seem so farfetched to me

[storm meadow]

I feel you. I go super slow and don’t really finish stuff

Movies then

[lucid drum]

Im a downer h a h i should just stop bothering you guys about it

[storm meadow]

Draw a scene in your own style

[jolly haven]

Barakamon is about a caligrapher with writers block? So he goes to the country side to find a solution

[storm meadow]

No no

We are trying to help

[jolly haven]

Its a really feel good anime

[storm meadow]

I know some artists with hmmm stuff hold on

[jolly haven]

No i dont mind

[lucid drum]

I know you're trying to help I just feel like I'm helpless and it'll be dragged out too long

[jolly haven]

Thats fine. I got nothing else to do

20mins till work is done. Im just standing around

[lucid drum]

And then you guys will be like "well damn you are terrible bye"

[jolly haven]

Literally just standing

Naw b. Everyones got their own problems

You have yours and i have mine

Though it may differ. At least i dont think about others that way

[lucid drum]

Also I feel lame whenever I share my art here

[storm meadow]

Please don’t

I know it’s hard

Some of us have been drawing for far longer that others

[lucid drum]

Like i play stardew valley when I'm really sad but my computer basically shit itself so now i cant play games on it. So i rarely draw anything sec related

Sdv

Not sec

I always share like... furry art here

[storm meadow]

I hope people will feel motivated rather than intimidated

[jolly haven]

No need to feel lame. Everyone is nice here

[storm meadow]

It’s good!

[jolly haven]

Theres furries here too

[lucid drum]

Yeah but it's off topic

[jolly haven]

And are open about it

[storm meadow]

One of the great artists I know and I believe they are in this server is a furry artist

Well you can post any kind of art here

I think

[jolly haven]

Within the rules

[storm meadow]

Not just Stardew related

Yep

[lucid drum]

I know I'm a good artist I dont feel lame about my skills I just feel lame because i only draw sdv stuff like 3 times out of 100

[onyx oxide]

people call me a furry ;-;

im not one :/

[jolly haven]

It doesnt have to be sdv stuff

[lucid drum]

Yeah but I feel bad

[jolly haven]

If u see creative i barely see much sdv lol

Dont feel bad. Its a place to share works of art 😁

[lucid drum]

Yeahh..

Okay, I use SDV as like a scapegoat if that's the right term, and when i was playing it I'd be really inspired afterwords but now since I can't I just feel trapped up in my feels and i think that's causing artblock

Like i sketched four headshots today but I had no fun doing them. I did them purely to try and art. But it didn't feel right at all

[storm meadow]

Oh sorry I misunderstood

Maybe stop for a bit?

[lucid drum]

I tried that

I stopped for a whole week

It hindered it more I think

[jolly haven]

But whatd you do in that week

[storm meadow]

Dude I had a massive block right before a show and I cried painting almost every piece. I really don’t have a solution and I don’t know where these art blocks come from.

[lucid drum]

Kinda layed around an slept

What kind of show do you mean soy?

[jolly haven]

Thats why not much changed or got worse. Just stopping it wont work

Try going out for walks. Sight seeing. Distract yourself a bit

Like try a different routine for a bit. Maybe youll get inspiration

[lucid drum]

I know,, I meant I kept trying to art but then i gave it a break and came back to it, and i did actually do stuff! I went out with my boyfriend and friends but nothing still

[storm meadow]

Change the medium

[lucid drum]

And going out is a completely different routine for me, I'm always inside

[jolly haven]

Oh i see

[lucid drum]

I have changed mediums a lot x3

[storm meadow]

Try master study
Just don’t think too much

[jolly haven]

Have you tried different styles? Watch bob ross , hes great even if i dont paint heh

[lucid drum]

I painted on canvas, did charcoal drawings, oil, pastel, digital painting, digital doodling, traditional things

[jolly haven]

I cant really help on art. Im not an artist

[lucid drum]

Well

[jolly haven]

I just doodle~

[storm meadow]

like I said, I don’t even know how I made it thru that one and I believe I’m still living with a ghost artblock so my suggestions are random at most

[lucid drum]

Everyone's an artist

[jolly haven]

So sorry if i offend

[lucid drum]

Wha

No

I'm saying you shouldn't deny artistic ability (my turn to be optimistic I guess)

[jolly haven]

Yes thanks youre right 😁

[lucid drum]

If you play bass you're an artist. If you make food you're an artist. If you make computers you're an artist

Eveeything is art

Everything*

[jolly haven]

How about do what some people are doing here

Draw our pprofile pics

[lucid drum]

(I can't even play piano normally)

What do you mean Hitori

[jolly haven]

Like the one im using is drawn by someone. Its a drawing of my doggo

Soy also drew one. Its amazing

I cant play piano with my other hand :( im a one hander

[lucid drum]

I'm in a style block too I think, it might also be causing normal art block. I have like 17 different styles and none of them click with me

[storm meadow]

Isn’t that me haha

[lucid drum]

I can play with two hands when i feel inspired cant play at all when I'm not

[storm meadow]

I can’t play shit

Well played piano from 5-10 and forgot all about it

[jolly haven]

Just draw each and everyone of us a different style 😁

[pastel elbow]

Hey, small little tip

[storm meadow]

perks up

[lucid drum]

I like money

[pastel elbow]

When dealing with artblock, you need to step away for a bit a breathe. There is always a cause for artblock

[storm meadow]

lmao

[lucid drum]

I d i d

[pastel elbow]

Are you uninspired? Are you stressed? Are you unsatisfied with your work?

[lucid drum]

D) All of the above

[storm meadow]

[pastel elbow]

A good way to force yourself out of artblock is to look at your favorite artists' work, and just observe their lines. Watch speedpaints. Do timed pose drawings

scribble

Don't bother with accuracy or uniformity

Just get that frustration out physically with things that are imperfect

Force yourself to be relaxed

[lucid drum]

I do all those things ahaha

[pastel elbow]

Then just stop drawing for a bit then, aye?

Let it come to you

[lucid drum]

I did

[pastel elbow]

I've had artblocks that lasted months

[lucid drum]

A full week

[pastel elbow]

Artblock is a monster lol

[lucid drum]

But then I couldn't stand not making art

[pastel elbow]

Have you tried zentangles?

[lucid drum]

I plan to enter my favorite artists giveaway once it goes away

[pastel elbow]

Or coloring books?

[lucid drum]

And yeah my mom bought me a book of zentangle

And coloring books make me want to break things,

[pastel elbow]

Hm...What's your favorite part about art?

[jolly haven]

Goodluck! Work is done need to drive home

[pastel elbow]

Drive safe please!

[jolly haven]

Ty 😁

[storm meadow]

Home sweet home!

[lucid drum]

I dont have a favorite part I dont think

[pastel elbow]

rlly..?

[lucid drum]

Yeah really...

[storm meadow]

Hmmm.. Bear, what is your favorite part about art?

[pastel elbow]

I really love shading

i recently did this and i had so much fun w/ the colors

though i also do have a lot of fun with just sketching

[storm meadow]

Gorgeous

[lucid drum]

I wanna show my favorite artists art, he makes a comic called Belzebubs and it's about Trve Kvlt metalheads who worship Satan instead of God and it's really funny and wholesome actually. He's even made them into a real band now and i think that's cool. (Didnt mean to interupt good arts but it took me forever to find the picture ;; sorry )

[storm meadow]

I love the colors in there. They give so much depth and flavor to the piece

Ohhhh that looks great! I’ll surely look them up.

[lucid drum]

Please do it's so good

[pastel elbow]

1. that's such amazing linework and it's very cute
2. thank you so much soy 🖤 i'm blushing hbdsjngd

[lucid drum]

Its what my profile picture is from

[storm meadow]

Been awhile since I read some comics!

[lucid drum]

You can read them on Facebook and Instagram the chronological part of his website is down

He even made a music video btw!!! It was animated

I sobbed

[storm meadow]

Also, Bear, his eyes are very striking. 10/10 would try to get his cell number.

[pastel elbow]

dsghkjngds THANK YOU

[lucid drum]

The broad shoulders sell it for me

[storm meadow]

Omg music vid??

[pastel elbow]

[lucid drum]

Yes

[storm meadow]

(I love strong men but can’t draw them criii)

[pastel elbow]

[storm meadow]

[lucid drum]

I draw twinks I can't draw muscle

[storm meadow]

I draw too much girly bodies I need to find my way back to buffy yummy men

[lucid drum]

I want to animate like that one day.

[storm meadow]

It’s soooo good wow!!

[lucid drum]

A hot jam

[storm meadow]

I know nothing about animation but this is WOAH

[lucid drum]

I try to animate but I can only do it when i feel really really down

And i am not down right now just tired, sjdjdn

And i dont have proper tools to do it

[storm meadow]

Oh I sure it’d be a delight to see your animated work

[lucid drum]

I never upload it anywhere because i usually look it over later and think it's trashy somehow

Wether it's a mistake in one frame or something else not adding up

I can't ever bring myself to fix it

[storm meadow]

The artist always sees flaws in their work

[lucid drum]

Anyway, here's some art i did 7 hours ago while uninspired,

[storm meadow]

Looking great thoooi

I like the composition

[pastel elbow]

amazing!

[lucid drum]

It was the biggest pain to draw

I almost couldn't finish even though it was just a sketch.

[storm meadow]

It’s a great sketch!

The facial expression is good and I see that your line art looks very confident

It’s clean and has really good pressure

[lucid drum]

I just draw hard 😛

[storm meadow]

Nope it’s the confidence my friend

[lucid drum]

Hahaah

[storm meadow]

Yes for real

[lucid drum]

I know I'm confident for sure

I know my art is good, I just am not inspired currently

[storm meadow]

Well that’s a pain in the butt

[lucid drum]

It took me an hour to choose from 8 characters and then another hour to make myself draw

[storm meadow]

I hope you get it sorted out soon

[lucid drum]

I just stared at the paper like "fvck".

[storm meadow]

oohh

[pastel elbow]

i'm very insecure abt my art so i'm so proud of you for being confident!

[storm meadow]

Same

[lucid drum]

Why are you insecure what

To both of you

[storm meadow]

I can’t say I’m proud of my skills because I’m totally not. I wish I could do more.

[pastel elbow]

i could be a lot better but the honest truth is that i'm just mediocre and it's a good thing i'm going to be a surgeon and not an artist lol

[lucid drum]

Surgery is art hehee

[storm meadow]

I’m always looking to improve

[lucid drum]

You're gonna be an amazing artist

[pastel elbow]
