[lament turtle]

here's the lineart for a little art trade i'm VERY LATE TO

[strong ingot]

I’m loving that dress

[hot river]

Yeah, all the flowing fabric looks really cool!

[fair lark]

oooooo nice !!

[fair lark]

i like the poofy sleeves a bunch !!

are they from that cookie game ?? ive never played but i have a friend on twitter who does

[thin dagger]

neil ur art is always so amazing

[frail adder]

I have a sudden urge to worldbuild for my OC

And make them half goat cause they're demons

But i gotta figure out how to draw goat legs lmap

Lmao

Anatomy practice from last night

I'm getting ahold of perspective but I'm struggling with legs, thighs more specifically

And i can't really do full frontal view things

[safe goblet]

i would suggest trying focusing on one part of anatomy at a time

like legs or arms or whichever you'd like

for things like this it's helpful to draw it a LOT of times from different angles to figure out how they work

which is of course easier to do when you're doin a specific part, yknow?

[slate yoke]

I finished a commission today!

[frail adder]

I love it!! Also ur twitter is my Life

[slate yoke]

Thanks for the compliments!

Also, lol

Good God it really is a hellish mixture of OC and memes

[frail adder]

Was it done in ur Inktober design style?

Like the sugar skull pokemon

[slate yoke]

That was actually requested by the commissioner

I said it might look nice and they wanted all in

[frail adder]

And @safe goblet thanks for the advice! I'm slowly tryna improve

Aww nice!

[slate yoke]

It also let me meet today's Drawtober prompt lol

[frail adder]

Ayyyee

[safe goblet]

any time 👀 i vividly remember being in the same boat

[slate yoke]

This is the grayscale version

It has a kinda threatening aura without color

[frail adder]

These were my figure/anatomy study things

O:

[slate yoke]

ooooooh

I dig it

[frail adder]

Thanlkskammda

[safe goblet]

[fair lark]

anyone have simple drawing ideas for inktober ??

i gotta do tomorrows now cause i cant tomorrow

[open drift]

can someone critique some flash fiction i wrote? it has to be under 100 words ```Caleb's tombstone had reflected my despair as my tears fell on the stone surface. The pain still lingered, though it had been many years. I laid the roses down on the frozen ground. A rotting hand had broken through, grasping the brown grass. A body had followed, reeking of rotted meat.

Now, I stare down at my bare arms. The flesh is beginning to turn green and putrid. The bite mark is purple. And my stomach is like a bottomless pit that always hungers for more. I need to tell someone the truth before it is too late.```

I love the description of the green guy

[hexed rapids]

I'm gonna draw guy who has balls for hair next

[mighty bronze]

That's Mineta

Interesting

[hexed rapids]

(I'm also basing this off of an earlier doodle I did today)

[safe goblet]

guy who has balls for hair is the worst character i hate him so much

[mighty bronze]

lol

[hexed rapids]

Crap I screwed this up

[fleet gazelle]

yea

[hexed rapids]

Another character enters the line-up!

[safe goblet]

[hexed rapids]

I do beleive I've hit an cunomdrom

[safe goblet]

[hexed rapids]

Okay, I finished bird man, all I gotta do now is draw the chick who fights with one half of scissors

[safe goblet]

bird man?

hawks or tokoyami?

[hexed rapids]

Just bird man

I actually don't know any of the characters

[safe goblet]

o lol

[hexed rapids]

[devout bridge]

yells about ocs

[mighty bronze]

lol

[devout bridge]

😔 i want to draw my cuphead child

i love them so much

[mighty bronze]

[echo mesa]

[echo mesa]

never too late for art

[mighty bronze]

[devout bridge]

oof

i gotta do coms anyway ._. and homework

[echo mesa]

rip

[devout bridge]

i just wanna draw some clown shenanigans

[mighty bronze]

riiiiip

[devout bridge]

i know one of their phases has to do with crying??? but idk how it'd go. i wanna plan out a fake battle lmao

[echo mesa]

Planning out a fake battle sounds like a McFun idea

[devout bridge]

i had another one who was an old camera but he was hard to draw so i havent updated him since the game came out

IT IS

[fleet gazelle]

sleep feb

[devout bridge]

i need more cuphead friends so i dont sound crazy in here

[echo mesa]

old camera lad deserves update

[devout bridge]

yee

hes just hard to draw

rolls about

[echo mesa]

sends box of virtual tissues

[devout bridge]

but do i take their puns/battle more mushroomy or more clowny

😤

[echo mesa]

I mean
I love mushrooms
But you yourself seem more clowny

[devout bridge]

huehue

[mighty bronze]

i never think about focusing on one thing

ah wait

i love angels

that's my thing

[echo mesa]

I love mushrooms, but I wouldnt consider it my thing necessarily
Ig pink haired gals could be considered my thing lol

[devout bridge]

lol

i mean, if we're going on things i focus on im def more a cowboy person?

clowns are great but theyre a side thing

[echo mesa]

sideclown
way better than a sidehoe

[devout bridge]

hehe

[hexed rapids]

I finished it!

[devout bridge]

i wanted them to have a inky tears phase cause theyre an inkcap mushroom, but thatd prob be too similar to the onion 😔

[echo mesa]

if it suits em, I'd say go for it

One or two simularities to other characters is fine when you got plenty of differences

[devout bridge]

pierrot clowns were drama hoes who came in to steal ur girl

i might ask horror too cause they know clown things :0

i might be forgetting some clown rules

[echo mesa]

o3o

[devout bridge]

i love me a sad clown

[lone mountain]

pixel is fun but hard

[storm meadow]

Ooooo I dig eeet

[mighty bronze]

cute things are indeed more fun to draw Jev buddy

[lament turtle]

i love it!

[open drift]

decided to practice some hairstyles. any tips on improving?

[empty ocean]

Observe real life hair for how it look then find other artist hair drawing for how you want to draw them depend on your style
also learn the 3D form so you would get to understand how they flow easier

[mighty bronze]

Me: ok I'm going to study landscapes from now on!!!
Me 30 minutes later:

[unkempt tinsel]

gohaaaan

[devout bridge]

yells about ocs again

i want to draw but i also want to play video games

why must i only have 2 hands and one set of eyes

[humble obsidian]

just grow more

[devout bridge]

I'm trying but it's not working

[echo mesa]

I
still draw while gaming tbh xD
I usually just do a quick smol addition to drawing in loading screens/boring dialouge, or just pause the game for a minute or two

[fleet gazelle]

Lol

thanks!

this was my warmup / single layer painting of the day
https://puu.sh/BOl5q/c8f37f4725.png

im not sure if i really liked it but i at least shook off the dust bc Boy i havent drawn in a bit 😔

[thin dagger]

oooo it looks pretty good to me!!!!

[unkempt tinsel]

i like how you do head shapes a lot

[brazen lark]

aww thanks!!!! thats not really something ppl comment on :'0

[unkempt tinsel]

np np, i know it's a weird compliment but yeah LOL

the variation is really nice

[safe goblet]

i like the hair rendering but not sold on the splotches at the back

[safe goblet]

tfw drawing with red and now everything that's grey looks green

[swift socket]

wip of my man, ill probably do marnie and jas once im done with shane

its to match the style of the original diversity mod

bc i hate having character portraits w/ mismatched styles

[safe goblet]

lookin good

[swift socket]

the original thread on the forums makes jas afrolatina but shane and jas arent related so im wondering if i should make her something else entirely to kind of further the fact that theyre not blood family

but at the same time i wanna draw her little afropuffs so idk 🤷🏽

[unkempt tinsel]

do you mean they're not related in the mod?

because they are related in canon

[safe goblet]

nah shane is jas's godfather canonically

oh wait

no nvm

[unkempt tinsel]

marnie is both shane and jas's aunt

[safe goblet]

marnie is aunt to both

yea

[unkempt tinsel]

they're not siblings tho but yeah

[onyx island]

I thought Marnie was only related to Shane

[unkempt tinsel]

nope pretty sure jas refers to her as her aunt too

[onyx island]

and Jas only called her aunt because she was dear to her

[unkempt tinsel]

ehhh i think that's iffy

but i don't have the dialogue in front of me so i'm not exactly gonna dig thru it

but either way, if the mod has them as not related i don't see why not make 'em more different

but if you make them similar i think that makes sense too, that being said they may not be on the same side of the family if you consider them related so they can still look pretty different

[swift socket]

jas says shane is friends with her parents, and marnie calls shane her nephew, so i think jas just calls marnie aunt bc she's an older adult figure for her

[unkempt tinsel]

now i gotta look it up because it's bugging me lmao

[swift socket]

lmao

[unkempt tinsel]

i'm really anal about canon stuff it's no one's fault but my own

[onyx island]

Jas is not blood related to either Marnie or Shane

[swift socket]

yeah thats how i understood it, i could always be wrong tho 🤷🏽

[unkempt tinsel]

i just remembered their family situation was always weird

[onyx island]

lol Jade trust me, I'm crazy about canon too

[open drift]

@devout stream hot damn

[unkempt tinsel]

okay so doing a lot of googling, all i got were these facts:

• shane is jas's godfather
• shane and jas both refer to marnie as their aunt
• marnie adopted jas after [spoiler]
• marnie refers to shane as her nephew
• jas says that shane was friends of her parents

so this leaves the blood relation actually open to interpretation. there is nothing outright proving they're related, but so far i haven't found anything that says jas just refers to marnie as her aunt because she's dear to her

so i guess, both are true because there's no solid confirmation on it

[safe goblet]

this would be even more confusing if the game was asian, calling an older person who you're familiar with "auntie" as a kid is very common

[unkempt tinsel]

ya

really i think it could go either way

personally i like them being related more, it just makes more sense to me. but there's plenty reason to believe they aren't related too.

[onyx island]

Was thinking of Jas calling Marnie "aunt" just like Vincent sometimes calls our farmer "uncle/aunt" when at high hearts, just a term of endearment for someone even though they aren't related biologically

[unkempt tinsel]

also in shane's 8 heart event jas refers to him as uncle so that could be for the affection thing too, when really there's not much for him being an actual uncle

so i can believe it in that case. for marnie i still need more personally since she's the adoptee and she's the one who has jas, not shane

but that's me personally, there's nothing that hardcore proves or disproves it in the game

but yeah

soz for tangent but lore stuff does fit in here, especially story-wise

[safe goblet]

sry gna have to report u to the mods for offtopic........

[unkempt tinsel]

[onyx island]

[slow birch]

calling older female family friends aunt is a common thing in the US, too

(and older male family friends uncle)

[unkempt tinsel]

yeah

[devout stream]

@open drift ya?

[devout bridge]

😩 i want to drawwww but my brain is dumb

[safe goblet]

draw anywya

[devout bridge]

but i dont know what to draw

ive been on an art hibernation for a bit

[devout stream]

draw a zombie banana

[unkempt tinsel]

maybe u can draw a tangela dressed up for halloween

[safe goblet]

draw yourself on art hibernation

[devout bridge]

i wanna draw cuphead oc stuff but my brains just dead

hh

[safe goblet]

look up cool refs

[onyx island]

draw your mushroom clown oc and cuphead in a tug-of-war with Beppi's soul contract!

[safe goblet]

so there's 3 people in the hangout i usually join atm

they're all asleep

[devout bridge]

thats not a bad prompt >:3c

annnnd kinda gives reason for them fighting the cup bros

[onyx island]

[swift socket]

doin some sketches for jas, which one do yall like more?

also im not sure if this channel is ok to ask questions and whatnot abt sdv art OTL

[onyx island]

This channel is exactly for that, not only for sdv art but for any art hehe

[echo mesa]

[onyx island]

me too

[echo mesa]

they both mega cute tho

[hot river]

Those are great Era!

[lone mountain]

oh my god she is precious

[swift socket]

thank u i thought it would make more sense for the ribbons or bows to be on the afro puffs instead of somehow pinned to the back like in canon

[lone mountain]

i like the second one best

[swift socket]

once i do the pixel portrait ill post here and ask again 🤔

[mighty bronze]

They are cute either way

[unkempt tinsel]

awwww she's super cute

[mighty bronze]

I know i can search for references and either construct and deconstruct the human body and sketch it with basic lines and shapes...but still how can i improve on doing poses for characters

It's ok,i can still save myself alone tho lmao

[safe goblet]

same way as studying other things, do lots of gestures and poses and look at images with weird poses

[fleet gazelle]

After I’ve done my Absol and Sylveon fusion I’m gonna make an unhooded or unclosked version of my mage person

And idk what to do

Like do I make them white with wolf / cat ears or something

[fleet gazelle]

Also I don’t really care about what gender

[storm meadow]

My errrrr almost serpent mermaid doodle
have never drawn hair in this position before so I probably have to wing it also the bottom half will be really cramped with all that hair and tail

[mighty bronze]

amazing!!!

[fleet gazelle]

What part of the head do i do next? (Its a sylveon and absol fusion) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/452964615802847234/503684667376140299/image.png Like do I do the absol part on the right or do I do a Sylveon ear? Ping me so I can check later

[safe goblet]

do whichever part, as long as you do it 🤷

[fleet gazelle]

Well it’s a fusion so like do I have

Or

(The bow will be on it either way)

[safe goblet]

why not both?

you're drawing it, you decide

that's your decision as the artist

[fleet gazelle]

How would that work

As having both

[safe goblet]

🤷

[fleet gazelle]

Lol

I guess I’ll do Sylveon cause done absol right side

[fleet gazelle]

Ok “ears” done

Did a quick change to the absol bit

[frozen wave]

looks nice!

[fleet gazelle]

Thanks 😃

[storm meadow]

That’s cute Froz!! Are you gonna draw full body?

Oooo purty

Heh, reminds me of a photo I took like that

[mighty bronze]

i don't do photos often but when i do,random ones prove to be the best 😂

[mighty bronze]

nice!

[lament turtle]

So true!!

The best photos can sometimes be the one's you don't really focus on taking, and just take it

[mighty bronze]

haha yes

[echo mesa]

if u put em side by side
its like u were looking at each other

[mighty bronze]

Lmao,yes Jas!!!

[echo mesa]

04-07-2016 vs today 👀

[mighty bronze]

Aaa

I can't wait for the moment to do this too!!

Such improvement

[echo mesa]

^-^
Got video of it too
I love making speed arts
I have a couple digital art ones from a few years ago somewhere

[mighty bronze]

[echo mesa]

a wip of McColour

[mighty bronze]

Omg

They are so cute together

The colors blend so nice!

[echo mesa]

thank ;3
Finally started using my slightly more expensive watercolours lol
can rly tell the difference

[mighty bronze]

Exactly!!

[echo mesa]

Might get another one of the better ones next week
Less colours in the more expensive ones so may not last as long as my cheap lads

[mighty bronze]

Did you think about copic markers?

I didn't try either but they got my attention

[echo mesa]

I keep eyeing up copic markers
But Ive never rly used markers and idk if itd worth skipping straight to the expensive lads lol

[mighty bronze]

I see

[devout bridge]

Markers are fun but ehhh?

[echo mesa]

Looc found a cheap version of copics
She seemed to like them, might be worth getting them to try

We named them knopics

[devout bridge]

Faupics

[mighty bronze]

[echo mesa]

Knopics as in knockoff copics lol

[devout bridge]

Markers are fun to doodle with but I don't think it justifies their price 😩

Especially since you can't mix colours without problems

[storm meadow]

just use lots of blender copic

💸 💸 💸

[devout bridge]

Oof blenders

They're just sticks of alcohol 😭

[storm meadow]

fancy alcohol in stick form

[echo mesa]

so buy markers and tip some vodka on the paper for ultimate blend?

[devout bridge]

Isopropyl works well

[storm meadow]

at least it doesnt smell ;_;

[devout bridge]

I just like getting shitty watercolours and calling it a day lmao or baby brush pens

Kuretakes are my jam

[storm meadow]

oooo how are brush pens?

[devout bridge]

I really like them! I'm bad with larger squeeze ones but smaller ones are nice

[storm meadow]

I've been thinking about getting a brush pen for years but I couldn't find one small enough

[mighty bronze]

I want a brush pen too one day...

Sigh

[devout bridge]

Just get one

[patent prism]

preview of fairy Jas costume I'm working on (spirits eve)

[hexed rapids]

Is this a good person shape so far?

[frozen wave]

Looks good! Maybe the neck should be a little slimmer - are you drawing while looking at a photo?

[hexed rapids]

Yes I have a photo for loose reference.

[frozen wave]

Anatomy is hard - so sometimes it helps to “measure” things on the photo. So like see how wide is the eyes are compared to the nose

How long is the neck compared to the rest of the head

[frozen wave]

This is in Danish but I hope the drawings make sense

Sometimes it also helps to draw lines (like above) on the drawing to “map out” where the eyes, nose and mouth will be

[rich delta]

tfw you can tell exactly where you stopped caring in the sketch

[hexed rapids]

Is this a good enough nose?

[frozen wave]

I think it's a nice nose - maybe you should put the eyes a little lower?

[haughty tendon]

@hexed rapids the head should be a little more rounder, and you did a good job with the ear and eye lining up! but the head shape looked kind of off, the hat and the face could be a little more down, and the head should be more round than oval, the hat should be right above the eye, otherwise, you did a good job!

sorry i placed the left line of the neck a little awkwardly

[hexed rapids]

Aw, thank you for the help! : )

[haughty tendon]

*i fixed it a little, sorry ;;

no problem fam

[hexed rapids]

How’s this looking?

@haughty tendon

[frozen wave]

Now I would just make the jaw a bit smaller

[hexed rapids]

How Smol?

[frozen wave]

Not the best guide, but you can try and see what looks best

Yeah I like it!

[hexed rapids]

Alright, now all I gotta do is get that tired looking expression and clean up the paper

[swift socket]

ohh that fairy jas is so cute

[haughty tendon]

@hexed rapids hope this helps ^^

[hexed rapids]

Oh thanks! I never thought aboot the collarbone.

[hexed rapids]

How do I draw eyes to look tired-ish?

[lusty hull]

heavily lidded?

[crisp saddle]

Yes and a small curve under the eye for eye bags

[safe goblet]

for expressions look at pics of people with those expressions and other ones and try copy them and figure them out

will help you more

[hexed rapids]

Colouring time!

[haughty tendon]

guys does this look anatomically correct?

[thin dagger]

HMMM

[hexed rapids]

Yeah, that looks pretty accurate.

[thin dagger]

i think the head is a tiny bit big compared to the body but everything looks good i think

[haughty tendon]

im covering most of the head with hair so it should be oks

also, thanks guysss

[thin dagger]

ahhh okay

np!!

[crisp saddle]

👀 👀 👀 👀 👀

[echo mesa]

[crisp saddle]

I'm about half way done! This is the biggest piece I've made; it's 18x24

[thin dagger]

WHOA sickk!!!!

[mighty bronze]

Omg that black-and white combination,astonishing

[crisp saddle]

Thank you! I have another thing like this sketched out..... Octopus tentacles!

and just kinda left it lmao

[thin dagger]

oh i feel u

[safe goblet]

i think

i almsto got it

[thin dagger]

oh??? :0

[onyx island]

I have little problem with coming up with ideas, but I have a little problem following through lol

the procrastination is real

[safe goblet]

it used to be a big problem for me too

but im getting better

[mighty bronze]

same

[safe goblet]

keh maybe ill just leave this drawing how it is

i wanna start a new one

[onyx island]

I should one day finish all the drawings that died in their sketch phase <_<

[safe goblet]

speaking from experience you wont i have ones that are still sitting there waiting

from a year ago

[onyx island]

yeah I don't think they'll ever see the light either

just some wishful thinking

[storm meadow]

Some of mine are 3yo

Can relate

[safe goblet]

i havent been drawing for that long lol

but i expect they will still be sitting there waiting

[devout bridge]

Pops a squat

My WIP folder is unending

My unfinished paintings are worse

[lone mountain]

im not dead

[mellow whale]

Glad to know you're alive jev

[onyx island]

lol can't help but think about that scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail

"I'm not dead!" "He says he's not dead!" "Yes he is"

[lone mountain]

me_irl

[mellow whale]

pat pat

[mighty bronze]

Glad you are alive

I wait to see your wips every day

[fleet gazelle]

After I’ve done my Absol and Sylveon fusion I’m gonna make an unhooded or unclosked version of my mage person

[hexed rapids]

That’s really cool!

[lament turtle]

Hehe, should be getting my new coloring book soon 😄. Cannot waiit. Rushes to sharpen all my colored pencils

[open drift]

@lament turtle I love your art style so much

[frail adder]

I did a pretty messy redesign of my OC

He's a demon but not like, a theological demon. In the world he exists in they're just a separate race entirely, but there are some theological references (i gave them goat legs because Satan is often associated with goats in Christianity)

[fleet gazelle]

@mellow whale I guess I’ll have it dragon I guess then

[open drift]

im in the mood for drawing smtn sdv related

maybe ill do smtn for a contest

the spirits eve contest

[onyx island]

Gonna draw a monster?

[open drift]

ye probably

[hexed rapids]

@frail adder looks really cool!

[swift socket]

two more sprites to go!! just the floor one and the surprised one left.. will be doing minor color adjustments once everythings ready

[brazen lark]

Hell yeah!!!

Looks great!!

[swift socket]

first sketch for a possible marnie edit

any suggestions or ideas? i changed her vest to an apron and gave her a button up shirt w/o the funky collar

since she's a rancher and all that

[onyx island]

omg she's looking great

[brazen lark]

I'm so excited for your portrait mod?????? She looks so good I really can't think of any other changes than what you already did

[frail adder]

maybe more textured hair?

[swift socket]

yeah the hair texture will def be more noticeable in the pixel version, this is just a sketch for design/flats

[frail adder]

ooo ye ye oki!

hmmm

[swift socket]

im so glad marnie and jas have less sprites than shane bc god he's taking so long

[frail adder]

you know those intricate kinda cowboy designs on some flannel shirts? ill try to find an example if u want

[swift socket]

ohhhh thats fun! i can add the funky shapes of her original collar back into the design with that too so its not completely lost

[frail adder]

ye! i thought it'd kinda fit cause she's a rancher and such

[open drift]

I love it @swift socket

[late ingot]

She looks lovely Era! :o

[swift socket]

thank u both!

[devout bridge]

IM LATE BUT MARNIEE

i lov her

i kinda like her without the funky collar tho, but if you still wanted to keep simple rancher themes you could chuck a bolo tie at her?

[swift socket]

🤔

opinions? suggestions?

[mighty bronze]

I like the second one because of the details on the shirt

[thin dagger]

whoaa that looks great!! i agree with smookie, i like the second one

[swift socket]

okie dokie ty for the input!

[mighty bronze]

[frigid depot]

Oh no I love it!

[swift socket]

local man lays on the floor

[devout bridge]

mood

[frail adder]

@swift socket what program do u use for pixel art?

I've been looking into asesprite but i need to figure out how to compile it

[swift socket]

oh im just using photoshop and zooming in super close

[safe goblet]

use paint like a true chad

[swift socket]

i have an adobe creative cloud account that my job so i dont pay anything for it tho 🤷🏾 idk any programs specifically for pixel art tho sorry

[hard lynx]

i lov marnie

(except when she ain't at the counter when she supposed to be)

[frail adder]

ohhh oki! soz ehe

[devout bridge]

is she ever working tho

[frail adder]

sdsfSDds

im Trying

[storm wave]

oo

[frail adder]

what is shading tbh

[storm wave]

monochrome couture

[frail adder]

?

[storm wave]

I like monochrome art haha

[frail adder]

is that where everything is one color just different shades

[storm wave]

ye

[frail adder]

cus i lov

EEEE

yes

[storm wave]

ugh I wanna draw more now kgxkgxkg idk what to draw tho.... hmm

[mighty bronze]

a cat!

cats are always cute

a persona

a pokemon! lol

[storm wave]

I haven't even started drawing anything kxyydggigot I'm wasting time sitting here thinking about how long it'll take me to draw

[empty ocean]

[mellow whale]

Oooo whatcha doin black?? Mansion?

I still remember that cool sketches of car of yours

[empty ocean]

nope , just some fantasy house

[mellow whale]

Woaaahhhh

Thats is nice dudee

[empty ocean]

it is just sketch

[mellow whale]

And it's a nice sketch!

I bet it will look amazing once you finish it

[empty ocean]

who know , i probably will fail but meh , it is everyday usual

[mellow whale]

Daww

But it look good so far tho

[empty ocean]

🤷🏻 haven't draw house for months so idk

[mellow whale]

Heheh no worry

Keep up the good work

[mighty bronze]

i just gave up to say anything to Blacky anymore Ash 😓 yeah i understand we are our own critiques and we have to be a little harsh on ourselves to improve but he is taking art serious and that's good

he does amazing things but he don't agree with us when we say it

[empty ocean]

i have high standard sorry

[mighty bronze]

as i was saying

that's good

[mellow whale]

Hahah, I mean, that's what he feels, it's fine

[mighty bronze]

yes

[empty ocean]

pretty much everything i did look like a trial to continue to me

😂

[mellow whale]

I'm sure you can achieve that standard you desired black

[mighty bronze]

^

just like all of us

[empty ocean]

who know , i like drawing so i will just keep doing it till i can't anymore

[mellow whale]

Yeaa

[mighty bronze]

that's the spirit

[mellow whale]

Draw till you broke!

[mighty bronze]

does the kid's mouth look strange placed like this?

or the eye 😓

[fleet gazelle]

blacky how was that 20 mins?

that would take a few days for me

if i did it 24/7

[empty ocean]

huh , i would like to ask how would that take a few days 😂

also i want to help but i don't draw human much to able to help , but i think you should check the skull a bit , find a ref close to what you want to draw would help

[fleet gazelle]

because i suck ok

[empty ocean]

well i got the age wrong sorry

@fleet gazelle i think you just need to pick up the basic of how to draw and construct building

i skip the measurement and only work on perspective

otherwise it would take longer

[safe goblet]

the more you practice the better and faster you'll get - provided you're consciously trying to improve

i mean youll also get better just by drawing

but it will be slower

[empty ocean]

you need some standard

if you are drawing wrong , practice a lot more just reinforce that wrong not right

[safe goblet]

that's what i meant with the consciously trying to improve lol

identify weak areas (or ask some good artist to if you don't know) and work on improving them

[empty ocean]

i mean more in study tho

it is much quicker to actually study what you like and understand it then just draw random and try it on some fun day

[safe goblet]

ya

[mighty bronze]

10 years later...

i was getting bored of my soft brush so i tried a pen this time and more sketchy lines

[mighty bronze]

I want to be Mona Lisa for Halloween, would it be better to buy a wig or dye my hair?

[devout bridge]

Do you want that hair colour long term?

Cause if yes then dye it

[mighty bronze]

And you did it great!!

Wondering of his quirk lol

No one shall bully this precious bean!!

Must protec!!!

[lament turtle]

aaaaa friend art of her awesome cookie oc

[fair lark]

oooooo

[lament turtle]

i love drawing in the cookie style djdkjd it’s hard but because of the simplicity of the anatomical features you can add a lot more detail into the outfits and it makes them really AAAA pop

[fair lark]

big fan of details omg lol

[mighty bronze]

Cute and stylish cookie

[crisp saddle]

Hey Art nerds, what do you use to seal charcoal? I've heard that hairspray works but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick

Maybe I need a different kind of hairspray

[red wraith]

I use Blair low odor workable fixative

hairspray is a good sealer in a pinch but it works better for graphite than charcoal

[crisp saddle]

Ah ok, guess I'll have to go get something made for this lol. Thanks!

[red wraith]

"extra stiff" hairspray might also work better if you're using a weaker strength one. Good luck!

[lament turtle]

GOT IT

[lament turtle]

... Yeah .... I don't deserve this book... My coloring is so bad compared to before hnng

[rich delta]

you deserve it to improve and get to where you used to be and then surpass that 👌

[devout bridge]

Lol crisis averted almost? I won't be able to go to my own show, not cause of class, but cos I'm going to dinner tomorrow

[echo mesa]

👀

[devout bridge]

Hhhhhhh HH u right but also lazy

[onyx island]

well you can't get "good enough" or "famous enough" without starting hehe

[devout bridge]

Why draw comic when I can plan and worldbuild forever

[crisp saddle]

Having trouble getting the starbound server to work so I drew a quick sketch of a slime lol

[hot river]

aww, is a cute slime

[devout bridge]

I snuck into the art show and my thing is the first thing on the wall :0

I'd selfie with it but selfie game weak today

[fleet gazelle]

Grats

[open drift]

you deserve it, i love ur art

[devout bridge]

It's a messy show y'all

[lament turtle]

Gonna try and color in this page tomorrow, I wanted to start with another page. But had a lot more tiny shapes, so to get started doing something with more space

[frail adder]

WIP of monochromatic thingy

What even is shading tbh

[lament turtle]

Oooo, and yes. Shading can be difficult

I may try and draw up a cute little slime

[sullen drum]

Here comes a sketch

[mighty bronze]

Uuu i was missing you Koog,and you bless me with a great sketch again

[sullen drum]

AWWWW SMOOKIE!!

I wanted to take a break to make sure this one looks good

[mighty bronze]

It is good to take it easy

[sullen drum]

Yeah, I'm glad I took it, I really needed it tbh

[devout bridge]

Doing micro studies doot doot

[hexed rapids]

What would be an appropriate head size and neck length for these shoulders?

[sullen drum]

I'm done for today

[mighty bronze]

Waiting for the final results

[hexed rapids]

Who’s this lookin’ so far?

[swift socket]

finally done!!!

just gotta do some last minute color adjustments and then ill post it to the continuation thread on the forums

and then... onto marnie

[thin dagger]

wow looks amazing!!! oooooo i cant wait to see the marnie one!

[brazen lark]

👏 👏 👏 YEAHHHHHH

[swift socket]

oh dang i should probably edit the little sprites too huh 🤔

[brazen lark]

i was just wonderin abt that :0 im looking at the walkin sprites rn and the difference is kinda noticeable but also not like, to the point that it breaks any immersion tbh

tho imo i think its an easy edit anyway if u just messed with the clothes LMAO

[swift socket]

yeah im editing the colors of his jacket too bc its waaay too dark

the walking sprites shouldnt be too hard bc its mostly color dropping/replacing and maybe a little bit of editing 🤔

[lament turtle]

@swift socket Are you making a portrait mod? If so, I'd love to check it out! That one of Shane is so cute!

[echo mesa]

just gotta do them ink lines now

[mighty bronze]

ayeeeee

i love it!!

[echo mesa]

^-^
Gotta draw me new farmer next

[mighty bronze]

[lament turtle]

Ooo!! Draw a purple hair'd farmer with a pretty flower crown on and some pastel overalls ^~^

[echo mesa]

Already have her look decided
She has red hair, but she could totally have pastel overalls

[lament turtle]

Thanks and thanks!

And fjfjdjkdjd I messed up a lil bit on the nose

[rich delta]

Ooo beautiful markers! I love how it turned out.

[frosty drift]

why is it so hard to just make lines come together in a way that looks good

[mighty bronze]

what's clear is that making smooth and nice lines takes hella lot of practice but you can do sketchy lines they look great too

[lament turtle]

Cutee

[swift socket]

@lament turtle im working on expanding the sdv diversity mod to match the original modder's art style! the unofficial edits of marnie, jas, and shane on the thread dont really match up with all the previous ones bc they were made by other people

i might do jodi, kent, vincent, and sam next 🤔 i dont really like how trans!sam was handled by the unofficial modders so i do wanna tweak that

[brazen lark]

Yeah I remember discussing that portrait design with other trans men and they also had a few complaints about it. I always thought it was kinda weird to redesign a character to make them Look trans, but I do appreciate the thought

I can't specifically remember the convo I had with my friend but I think he mentioned something about the lips??? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[open drift]

i love the emily, maru and abigail diverse edits!

the marnie jas and shane ones are just recolors instead of redraws so they're not as good

i did see someone doing a diverse marnie on this server which looked really nice

here it is. she looks like a disney character

[swift socket]

that was me lol

[red wraith]

I like

[south matrix]

Oh my lord, that's such a fantastic marnie
