like 3 months ago?
I work Mon-Fri
hell
I aint letting it stop me
tbf i didn't try drawing from my mind lately yeet used only refs
cuz my work involved
i work 5 days a week and 9 hours eachday on graveyard
i work all days but only morning
so im verr tired most the time tbh
oof
mood
AND THEN details on lighting, a design on the bra and all that good, time consuming shit
👍🏻
In a way I'm glad I didn't draw her full clothed for the sole reason that drawing and shading a full dress would be a nightmare.

XD
my new room has plenty of shelf
i can store my book and aircraft models now
😂
i want to buy YAMATO models and Psycho-pass gun
but they are so damn expensive
the gun alone cost 600$
and i dont even know if it is illegal to own it
lol
no toy
oh ok then
with neon light , voice
it can also transform like in the anime
look real badass
i really want it
but 600$ for just something to put on display
oof
nah i want 3500$ cintiq
ugh if u re keep buying things when will u buy that cintiq
too much temptation
im glad I already retired from being an otaku
*costly otaku
i knoo
just look at those models
and cars
and starship
and boobless girls
oh wait
thats not related
but still
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
well you are not wrong
i want to buy Tanya figure
and Guts figure
and possible
Kazuki
or Sachi
which manga ?
after changing the ear~
i prefer white fluff for fox ear
then they change to that hawk story
fluff is good
kind of pissed everyone
hahah im workin in that good fluff
oof
also Jacki is spliced with a fennec so its not gonna be a complete white
one day
well i am going to get 50$ each month so
😂
i want to study Yamato so bad
but i need the model
@empty ocean my long term goal, i wont ask much for perspective but i can learn how to 'copy'
ooooo
in only 7 months i accomplished lots of things
u see improvement and cringeyvement
lmao

cant deny if that was the case
well she support my hobby and also she just said that ship look nice herself
lol
😂
Parents who support you in any dream are best parents but still won't let me get that cintiq bcs the price of it is all my money on the card lmaooo
And tbf i donut want it
Yet
well if something is too expensive , it would be better to save up yourself
parent often buy thing that they can provide you
Ah ofc i donut ask them for money lul i work for them myself but we do help each other like a family,either way saving money doesn't sound bad at all like putting an amount every month for it even tho it will take me like...4 years till I'll be able to buy it??
Lol
It might get cheaper in time tho
Again i exaggerate
just taste your freedom to your heart content
Weeew
man this tablet is a dream
Penny someday. I really wanna retry her after my last attempt.
I think my abilities have gotten waaaaaaay better since then
atm im just experimenting with colours and putting off the hair
I defo wanna draw her properly. My last attempt looked like this (March, last year)
thats much of improvement
Yay glad my subliminal message worked 😜
kek i remember this thingy
lmao that poor woman
long hair penny ftw
decided to just sketch my favorite bitch instead
good bitch
ye
💕
Ooo cutes!!!
oh shit i found the very first attempt I ever made at drawing Serra
Good god that hair
GOOD GOD, THAT EAR
Lol don't beat yoursef up over your old drawings, they were the stepping stone that let you come this far
i want to draw slime

whats with those flying circle
gonna showoff


Gah, how hard can it be to find a side view of a minimalistic version of a firefly for reference? <_<
I guess they will be just dots 
Black dot with a glow dot
minimalist
I'm confident in all the shading except the hair, the biggest part of the drawing.
le sigh
its okayish imo
just put base color and then white color above it
bam
minimalist firefly

it's okay, I'm making dots 

Wobbling you posted some seriously good hair earlier. Any tips?
Finally finished my drawing
now to wait...
He got more bootiful!!
love me some big hands
Oh no

ok jk ocs are too hard to draw
Rip
There we are! Some added shine to the hair and chest, softened some lines and a very small adjustment to her eye - should now be looking at the viewer a bit more.
I think I'm gonna darken the whole thing with a slightly upped contrast when I'm almost done but first is the bedsheets and all of the lighting and shadows there.
Holy crap that looks incredible
It looks amazing so far 
meanwhile he's like 11 or something
curse you jev, i need to do little drawings and i'm tempted to do some db stuff
Done the bedsheets (messily but it works) but now I'm thinking the other shadows on her body could use work.
Sad to say this still ain't done DX
It's looking pretty damn good!
^
oh i lov it arc!!

LOL
i like how u do dbz titties
i actually have a reference for tbz titties
dbz
LOL ITS BECOMING A HABIT
I HATE IT
pls send titty reference tho
i have so many references just on the wrinkles for their pants omg
its the WORST
ty
ur welcome
i got it from a diff server but since it's dbz style i don't know if i need a specific artist ref
like it's toriyama style

oh thank god im not the only one drawing boobs
My pure eyes saw nips
lol
i mean
i draw boobs a lot more than people think i do
whatever you expect out of me
multiply it by like 5

so 0x5
i just don't share much of it
lol
im actually redoing tomas ref rn cause of how ugly and old it is hnhhhh
lmao i was only messin'
who's tomas
i'm just sayin everyone expects me to only do cute stuff or dudes but i just draw a lot of boobs
the main dilemma tho
is that some of my characters have big boobs
til
and i'm never sure if i can share it even if it's not really sexual
Boobs are a challenge to draw. Basically got the anatomy of them drilled into me.
because people are always gonna see big boobs as somethin
Will never make the "they look like big circles" mistake.
Was looking back at a dancer I drew and oh boy I done them badly.
Like I drew a top, but didn't account for the support they'd give
you can prob do circle boobs but it would be stylized and not rly like realistic
also jade is it bad i dont like toriyamas newer style
Or just say they're implants or something
bare tiddies are easier since you only need to account for gravity.
i cant draw boobs to save my life but my ass game is unmatched
Bare skin is harder imho.
I think clothed ones are harder since you need to think about the effect the clothing has on them. Do they push them up? Is there cleavage to take into account?
It’s about coloring though. It also depends on how you want your finish piece to look so I won’t fight for my case 
shading boobs is a nightmare tho
like if youre doing figure studies??
like i get the light source
Oh god yes Feeb
but i gotta be careful or we go from flesh to ball real quick
shading boobs can fuck the fuck right off
the curry and my blanket are working against me so i think im gonna take a nap
sleeby
bbl
sorry i was afk
newer style like db super?
the later arcs look pretty good imo but i agree the earlier ones are a bit flat
i think it's a combination of digital and change over time
the foreheads look a little strange to me
man seeing gohan's gonna break your heart then
yeah the faces are more shorter and round too
ive seen but im just holding on anyway
if it helps you feel better though i don't think toriyama was the one illustrating the manga
i already buckled up
the dbs manga
2000's were cursed i guess
also i need to drawn more sebastian because sam is killing my tumblr activity
more sebastian? 👀
soy is right, lighting does make bare ones a pain. Didn't consider that
91 and 04 are my favorite
LMAO jev i am similar
"well no one's been looking at my art, guess i should throw a sebastian out there"
nice wip
that being said i'm so used to people not really giving much attention to my original art so i get excited about getting double digits
but i'm slowly conditioning them
SLOWLY
oh i never get shit on my original work i dont really mind it much
maybe i need to do a non chibi sam
i love ur sam stuff people are crazy for not payin much attention to it
non chibi would be cool!
he brings in the dough
the world needs more sams tho
yeah LOL HGNGN
my sebastians vary but he's guaranteed triple digits for me
i think more people actually followed me for comics than sebastian since my comics always get a lot of notes
i have to give the mullet justice
Its stays true to the original but still add ur own to it
which like, is cool, but i'm not a comic artist and i think people expect the wrong things out of me
youll never catch me drawing him without it
oh i get what u mean
my comics are the one that gets notes
but i cant really say much abt seb being the dough getter cause honestly hes all i draw hadhg
operation exploit seb for moolah
np 
that made me laugh so hard
yeah ur art is beautiful 
seb pose for the camera
i also love ur sebs jade
awww thank u
cries u guys are so nice ty!!
sebastian the poster boy for sdv notes
im surprised its him and not shane
HAHAHA NOOO
Seb; who are u
Shane; im u but sadder
omfg pl s s
be careful who u call ugly in middle school
i've drawn him before but nothin i'm too proud of
LOL i saw that
OH GOD
LMAO
and yeah memes do. my most popular comic is a meme
"YA'LL BETTER GIVE ME THAT GOLD HARVEST, YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT"
i'm not that upset about memes being noteworthy because admittedly i reblog a lot of memes too
HES HOLDING A KNIFE
no its great cause that means ur funny
it takes talent to make ppl laugh
I just draw more reaction icons of lyell im so tired now
lol that ones still pretty funny
it took a team effort for me to get the junimo gif
it was so much fun tho
like i was laughing for a solid hour
I'm awake
i need to look for it now
memes bring the world together jay ur right
also hi
yes pls do
gimme the maymays
i should make hi-def version of the sebastian puns i did because i still laugh about them
high quality seabasstian
HAHAHAHA
If I draw Penny should it be wholesome or lewd-ish 🤔
I have ideas for both
god when i joked about how his pixel art has a big butt compared to everyone else's pixel butt
it got me up to 700 notes
i was like whoa i was just memeing
do both yo
yeah why not both
did
YEAH!!!
WAIT IS IT REALLY
y'all just sad because of your flat spouses
I was about to ask how I'd do wholesome AND lewd
But I got an idea
LOL
thicc
omygod
Bubble bubble butt
THE LORD'S WORK
that post is amazing jay
Why buy peaches from Pierre when u can have them homegrown
thank u jade LOL
i feel honored
he is art incarnate
absolutely
oh lawd he comin
btw have some sam emote things cause theyre cute and fun to draw
AWWWW
aaaawwwwwwwww
i love the second one!!
i'm taking him home
SAME LOI
theyre both so cute but the second one hhhh
i was gonna do more
also sam is :3c and you cant convince me otherwise
idk how seb tolerates him
Sam: 

I think Seb internally finds it funny
Also who can resist Sam hes like sunshine incarnate
honestly he started as sunshine but has just slowly devolved into sunshine but with cringe memes for me
I've never spoken to Sam lmao
he is tho
yeah like hes one of the few ppl who are v welcoming to u when u first move to pelican town
im seeing more sam artwork as of lately tho? is it just me
same! he deserves more love
Sam us a Good Kid and his heart event in the first year gives me Feels man
His concert heart event one of my favs
sam is a wholesome memer
So true!
Aight, decided my Penny drawing will be all wholesome. Something simple like her with a book

aww look forward to it
Oooh yes Penny 
The what? :o
Mostly I just forget about him cause I can never find him
I chuck him a soda if I've got it tho
t h e b u p
Oh . _.
I'm gonna draw Toad's portrraits and I was really tempted to do a memey drawing of the bup
I mean, why not :D
ahaha. yes
Aaaah stith
Your sebastians are one of my absolute favorites
I just wanted to tell you! I admire u a lot!
that's so cute
i can't say i've seen much of your art other than what you posted in creative but i liked what i saw
Aaaaaaaahhhhh (* ´u` *) hello hello~ thank you~~ I'm glad you like my work! <3
You're welcome! Everytime i see ur art on my dash it fills me with glee 😊
So thanks for sharing ur work to us
It makes me happy that I can make someone else happy with my work, I will continue to do my best (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
And now that I've discovered this discord, I wanna try to be in the community more. I'm quite shy haha ^^
wtf how did my art get featured in the gallery???
my profile pic literally only took me 15-20 min and it lowkey looks like trash ;w;
Thats understandable! Everyone here so far have been very welcoming though and helpful. And if not, the mods are quick to correct that. I'm sure you'll love it
As long as you had fun making it, it's not trash :D!
Yes! What Stith said
its ya boy
\o/
@sturdy rain because it's sdv related. if you don't want it in there, it doesn't have to be, but remember this in the pins:
the last point is also pinned in this channel too
I draw Seb too much, I should draw someone else u.u
ahhhh sorry ^^;;
i use context clues when pinning stuff sometimes, if i pin something wrong let me know also
all good 👌
also yay seb!
lmao he is addicting to draw isn't he
i always love doing the hair
I'm weak to edgelords so.... yeah.... xD
i'm weak to big nerds
i'm weak to both
i also really like shy types who slowly open up to you
his eight heart event is where i fell hard
I'm weak to shy bookish ladies <_<
oh yes those are v cute too
also i love how subtle he is when it comes to affection
i need to draw seb mor
its cute
More Seb is always a good thing
Yes more Seb
i accidentally missed seb's 8 heart and on the same day i married him i ran into it hahaha
tho it was also coz it was winter 
oh i see i didnt know the seasons fid that
Did*
haha yeah idt theres a bachelor/bachelorette that i dont like
i dont like Pierre tho
thats for sure
Same u.u
i only buy produce to support local businesses! thats it!
But hes a snake
also i agree on u stith i need to draw other charas hghhh
One day Jaydead, one day haha
oh that's interesting you can get married without seeing all the events
Hahaha definitely
lmao
he is not phis
No hes Abigail's dad
pierre is married to caroline
I totally married Penny without seeing her 8 and 10 hearts events in my current run 

i've been wanting to draw diff ones too, i might redraw the pokemon/bachelor[ette] thing i did over a year ago
ooo
ohoho
nyahaha
Pokemon :O I love pokemon
omg so i punched my laptop yesterday super hard it broke and most of my WIPs may have been either corrupted or lost
but the first part of my comic is still kinda there
Like, the bachelor(ettes) as Pokemon?

....why did you punch your laptop?
Or Pokemon trainers?
o.o why'd you punch your laptop what
hgagh i have a phobia of roaches
THAT'S CUTE THO
and i thought i saw one i freaked out
ITS NOT BROKEN well i mean
the hardware inside yes
THANK U
At least the first part is still there
I just gotta redraw the other panels
all this cause i was trying to kill a bug

oof
And press it every 3 minutes
also JADE THATS A CUTE IDEA
i should do that
i wanna draw more things w pokémon..
or at least have a backup
not just cause pokémon gives me attention but u kno >:3c
And oh i just saw what u said Jade
my friend and i has ( kinda ) started to work on a little thing called Project Paw, its a game where u play as a cat and go on different adventures. This is one of the characters in it
Mitten The Kitten
wait
oof
Yeah that would be a rly good crossover!!
I feel like I'd be happy with any crossover with SDV tbh
Mitten the kitten
Aww c:
Thats true i love seeing new art in the tags!
i only have one day left of break so i dont think i'll have time to do anything new lol
lines for those sketches are coming quick
jev im coming to eat ur hands 🔪 i love how u do eyes
oh a cute sam!!!
very cute turret!
and aww the lines look great jev, man it's impressive how fast you can do smooth lines
that's something i need to work on more
Project Paw...what a good name
soft boy
doing the pokemon post was a lot of fun, i can probably raw it way better now
awww cute
Ooooh my heart
hehe
draw*
A good man
soz
👀
fire alpaca
ohhhh
OH YEAH creative cloud
I'd like to, but it's all I know q.q
what happened
oof
ew
its affordable~~ by being 50$/month
adobe u make lots of money... stop...
it hasn't been a one time buy in a long itme
its been a subscription thing for the last handful of years
adobe greedy bitches
no i used to pay ~100/yr
100 for a year is actually really good
the student discount is like 300-350/year which is still. wild.
Omg
100/year is a lot but i'd at least feel better about it
WTF
i dumped ps ages ago though lmao
SAI is like 60 dollars and thats it
yeah csp was like 25$ when i bought it
bwoop
Omg thanks Feeb
I’ve had that $20 monthly subscription for years and I didn’t know they’re going up the cost
i thought sai was cheaper
I feel like the only good thing about going to college these days is getting that student discount :0
;alsdkfj soy omg
But the thing is PS has a monopoly on industry so if u wanna make it big u gotta get good at it cause thats what they use
Yeah of course not
people in the art industry have it hard
I'm just saying thats what they mainly use
I don’t think SAI is getting any more update?
people use indesign more but thats still adobe
sai recently came out with sai 2
which is pretty good
i still prefer reg sai tho
sai 2 has text options tho!
yea!
yeah i just use fire alpaca for that
Clip studio a good thing
csp owns my entire ass
I dropped SAI like a hot potato after getting CSP
its a great tool tbh plus really affordable
lmao me with photoshoppp
i was married to it for years and then got csp and was just "oh."
i liked csp for sketching but lining on it was a bitch for me
why come? :0
was it the brushes
uhh i dunno
i just used the default brushes
like i do with everything
🤷
altho i havent used it in ages so maybe i could do better
maybe you didnt have the stabiliser on?
I have that creative cloud for acrobat and illustrator. I only use photoshop to edit emotes. Been paying $20 a month for about 3 years 
i just use texture brushes that i find for free lmao
SAI has better stabilizer option than csp atm.
sais stabilizer is godsend
honestly?? yea.
just be like me and never upgrade photoshop
yeah the brushes on there just dont suit my tastes/style i guess
i wouldn't use photoshop at all if i didn't own an older copy and refuse to do anything online with it
oh the cs6?
i get curious about csp but i'm not really in a rush to try new things
i got cs5 i think
if you ever get csp lemme know, i know a ton of free brushes lmao
i love bob..
a good man
One of my art directors would send me Bob Ross motivational gifs to support me ;u;
awww cute
like, the thing about photoshop
i think on paper it's nice to pay for a subscription
what blows my mind to smithereens is to not have both options
why did they make it sub only
like i'm sure a lot of people dropped it so hard after that
i know they've had it on sub only for a while but it still blows my mind
but i guess that makes other art programs look a lot more enticing so good for them getting more traffic
i feel like it might be because of schools using photoshop
oh no whats adobe doing
but i think it is genuinely awful to make it sub only for a normal consumer who plans to have something for life
i'm not complaining about anything new honestly jacob
but some of them in here said that the price of the subscription increased
so that is something new and awful
oh i hadnt noticed yikes 😦
yeah it went up
ew
things that will probably come back to haunt me as a developer: starving artists who dont make a living making art can and should download it through free means
really if i can some day buy csp it'd be fine
the only thing i hate is clutter
literally i just use canvas brush and layers
everything else is off of my screen
which is why i do not like using sai a lot
also gaussian blur. i use gaussian blur often.
because... i have no control of my life
looks good turret
ty
Art careers are definitely a struggle u.u I can vouch for that
its a very competitive market
we'll tread this topic carefully since we don't condone piracy of any manner
but i'm just saying it's not surprising if photoshop has insane prices and then got rid of it to make it an insane monthly price
maybe the price was accepted back when it was the only program around
but that really isn't the case anymore and i highly doubt they care about the individual consumer, more about bulk buying through schools and the like
^
If I recall, stuff like that can kill programs and whole companies. I remember reading g something about it with quark express vs illustrator back in the day
nice progress so far
ty
I'll have to see if I can find the article because it was really neat, but basically, quark was The Software for publishing back when, and they had this huge dominance. But they were slow to adapt and didn't support some platforms well enough, and we're expensive af to boot. Then in design came out, and did... Everything quark did and some stuff it aisnt but should have, at a fair price point, while supporting more os-es. And killed quark, except now Adobe is being dumb
i know photoshop was originally made for ILM but kinda grew out of its original intentions
ilm?
it seems like they're just... trying to narrow the audience again
industrial light and magic
ah
for movies and stuff
i am not too pro so i can't say too much about it i just know general origin
yeeee i get u
i think photoshop was originally for edit
It's really interesting to me cause my HS year book used quark the first year I did it and I remember haaati g it
but the brush system later were useful and plenty of industry artist choose it for painting and drawing
i started using Paint Tool SAI
but it wasnt to my liking
i switch to Photoshop
and now to CSP
What is csp?
i feel like most people are migrating to csp now
i'm still on photoshop but maybe one day
I am... So art program. Dumb
clip studio paint
Ohhh
i know some tablets come with csp
my friend bought a 30 dollar tablet and it came with csp
so that was pretty cool
well around 30
well
i still switch between CSP and PS
PS has filter which isnt bad
also the brush system is still better for painting , even sketching is still good
but CSP has quick flip , good stabilizer suitable for lineart , painting is depend but color and shading overall is good if you use all it tool
person from another server did a really gorgeous speedpaint and is criminally underfollowed for the level of effort https://twitter.com/_RealHopeless/status/1084257614568083458
I just made some #manga #art on #Procreate ^^ It was really fun to draw and I hope you check out my #YouTube video on how I drew it here:
SPEEDPAINT: https://t.co/9ExGFyyuTK
😍 that's gorgeous indeed
aw that's very pretty, i love the coloring
im late cause i was on a walk, but twitters fucking over artists too
insta and reddit are impossible to use as regular art platforms, so idk where else we're meant to go lmao
we gotta wait for another art-centered website i guess since deviantart isn't exactly the greatest place either
also i read the article, that was very interesting
yeah i wouldn't be surprised if adobe takes a big fat stinky soon
maybe not as soon as we want but there are other replacements now
well there are art server on discord
art servers are hit or miss though
i guess ...... they never ... miss ..... huh ....
cause theyre really insular so you're not getting any exposure
willow im gonna slap u
u have my permission
also one of my biggest peeves is when you post art then someone ignores you and immediately posts their art after
i deserve it
which is what most art servers do
yeah discored isnt very good for seeing anything but live stuff
i'd rather have my own platform to post my art and interact on my own time
also people can be unnecessarily critical
which is like, that's fine, but i just want to share stuff sometimes
i feel like discord is both too personal and too distant at the same time
Idk how it'll pan out but I know pillow fort is aiming to be like, the best of Tumblr+the best of livejournal
i like sharing art on discord but it is not what i would use exclusively
Idk what that means for art
yeah pillowfort is alright so far
the art looks nice on pillowfort but i haven't used it too much
If you do furry stuff I know there's furaffinity and most furry folks seem really chill
I use Tumblr ive gotten good results
nah FA is a dumpster fire too
Oh welp. Lmao
tumblrs taking a shit though
the worst happened today though. i shared the post i put in #creative somewhere else where there is a deer (child) and a boy (child) holding hands. this was met with 5 minutes (and utterly burying it) of this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/261307740855468033/533791184514973726/unknown.png
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/261307740855468033/533791376836657174/unknown.png
and im just like okay great
Every site has problems you have to weigh the pros and cons and go with the one you like more
yeah that's pretty douchey
oh yikes
i'm sorry jacob
yeah, but tumblr is like. actively dying.
it happens but ty
Sighhh, I. Sorry about that :/
and twitters not going to support transparency/quality images
tumblr's gonna stay around for a while honestly but i get why people are not using it anymore
Didn't know Darin to be (or make characters who are) LGBT was PC these days 🙃
tumblr still isn't the best place to post art at least imo
its good for shit posting, but when random posts are getting flagged/artists are being blacklisted its really difficult to use
i want a site like deviantart but with better moderation and tagging
i don't really want a tumblr-esque site
The whole PC complaint is total bullshit
I've gotten more followers than I have in ages since The Event, but also like half of them are porn bots
like, i like pillowfort, but i'd be happy with a more art centered platform
game dev community can be kinda toxic jacob
i can't find some of my friends blogs anymore unless i stumble on them on my dash. its so stupid
Tho the server i know just give harsh truth out , you can either feel bad or actually listen and fix it
So basically, kinda like ao3, but geared for art?
@stable elbow SO toxic
print all ur art out and release it into the wind
that'd be nice pigeon
thats the only good way to share it
essjaydoubleyew game!!
and just being able to see people you like
There is also Moderndayjames art server
twitter has been surprisingly wholesome / ecnouraging as far as game dev and art go though surprisingly during the month ive been there
the dashboard style of showing content is fine with me but i just want it to be solid art sometimes
tru willow
it is highly education place and friend
I like Tumblr tbh I can't post my adult content but I have a different website thats made for that stuff
@empty ocean what is that?
reminder to not post discord links in here
no one has done it but just, remember, since we're talking about servers 
It would be neat if you could like subscribe to some artists and they show up in your feed, while having g pages that can be sorted and galleryised and tagged like DeviantArt and ao3
yeah that'd be super nice
Epichroma also education but more serious environment with direct comment to the problems ( not pushing around the bush ) , tho the admin will insult you if you dont listen after so many times
indie game devs can be bitter like... go work on your earthbound copy instead of being a rat
Ao3 tags and sorting are.... God sends at times,esp now you can block tags from search
Ao3 is beautiful
i love ao3
i'm sure those servers are helpful
even if my fics havent updated 😭
for me though i don't like that kind of environment
Ao3 is.... Home. Fic wise for me. I'm in a fandoms that's been around d for ages so some folk still post on ffn but like.
@untold roost a personal server belong to Moderndayjames
