@lament turtle
didn't know if discord logs the activity of photoshop SDVPufferthink

lament turtle
#

no it doesn't actually πŸ˜„

#

it's just my browser

#

I renamed it

#

just for fun

pastel iris
#

I literally have no idea if there is a way to rename a browser

#

oh what am I saying, your name is hack-atta anyway xD

fleet gazelle
#

Not that

stable elbow
#

you can have your art program as a status

#

you can add it in as a game

pastel iris
#

seriously? not just games?

late ingot
#

I thought there was a way you can do that

stable elbow
#

settings/game activity

#

press 'add it' button under the green/grey box

late ingot
#

Yep. That’s right!

#

I did that forever ago with sai

pastel iris
#

ah great, I'll keep that in mind πŸ‘Œ

lament turtle

#

well, there are more than just eyes, but you know. I could just sit and draw eyes the whole day, because it's fun

devout bridge
#

ooh was that from the eye meme?

lament turtle

Looking for opinions on the new and improved fall/halloween rugs I had to fix because the doormats looked way better to me

marble solar
#

I love the darker coloured rugs! I think the pumpkins are blending into the bg on your orange one a bit, though

#

Maybe desaturate the bg of the orange one a little?

tepid scarab
#

Click the image, it looks different at a bigger size?

marble solar
#

Changing the size doesn't really make much of a difference

tepid scarab
#

Not even the darker edge on the pumpkins helps?

marble solar
#

Not for me

#

Might just be my monitor, idk -- I'd wait for some other folks to offer their opinions :)

tepid scarab
#

Okay, thanks for the input

#

Honestly, I could just lighten the entire orange rug's main orange if need be

devout bridge
#

seconding that, you need to desaturate either the bg or the pumpkin cause they get real lost with how it is now

#

idk that lightening it would help, try bumping the background a few notches to the left

#

towards the greys

tepid scarab
#

hm. Lemme see what that does

pastel iris
#

those ghosts are cute SDVPufferHeart

lament turtle
#

On my side the pumpkins look fine, btw

fleet gazelle
#

welcome

tepid scarab
#

Taking saturation down by five makes a huge difference. I'm amazed

#

not showing though.

#

Belated, i have my gigantic criticisms about furry community but i am againdt putting everyone in the same light. My best friend is a furry and ive met plenty of cool people

#

Also drawing anthros is great, i have a lot of them too

#

I love seein the variety of art and dont be embarrassed abt posting anthro things here, we support

#

Ok now i gotta continue reading

#

Looking good so far jar! I really like those rugs amu, looks good to me but i can see what they mean abt the pumpkins

#

That shane looks great so far hecatta! And that table is super pretty coldazrael. Ohh tables, the one with the cross is my favorite

#

Yay slime morris and yay truck!

#

That st patricks day rug is my fave

#

And FINALLY

#

Love the sketch key! I look forward to more

stable ore
#

awww, jade taking time to comment on everything SDVPufferHeart

#

I mean honestly, I may not be a fan of anthro myself but seeing the quality and craftsmanship, how could I give anyone crap for the chosen topic

#

unless its something truly harmful or NSFW (in which case its good to be mindful where you're posting) just have fun and draw whatever makes you happy, furry or not

working on smthn real self indulgent πŸ˜” πŸ‘Š

thorn pulsar
#

self indulgent things are difficult for me, because if I draw myself how I look with Shane... It looks like I've drawn two Shanes, which was a startling realization I had the last time I trimmed my beard. xD

#

and if I don't, I get distracted by how great my farmer's beard is compared to mine :p

If anyone could give me feedback on this, that'd be appreciated! Trying to break into pixel art a bit, but I'm especially unsure of his jacket

yours are nice as well, although I personally prefer birch wood xD

@ hound
the jaw is kinda blocky I think, but if it's your style then everything is okay

@thorn pulsar when it comes out would you mind if someone did a recolor? i'd like the mod but want it to fit with my yellog/eemie craftables

@crude reef are we. talking about the bird feeder? I'm sorry I'm trying to follow three conversations simultaneously xD

crude reef
#

oh sorry!! yeah thats what i meant lol

thorn pulsar
#

haha, sure! I don't see why not

#

my current plans are the bird feeder, a birdbath, and some funky metal statues, but I'm open to suggestions. c:

unkempt tinsel

@marble solar personally i love the jacket! you might want to make the side on the left a little more bent to match the side on the right though. i love how you did his face, the long jaw and the eyes are really nice imo

Thank you!

#

Hello frozen! How're you doing today?

unkempt tinsel
#

letting everyone know in here that i added 4 more artisans. i went back through the art by several months but i highly doubt i got everyone that qualifies, so if you feel like you qualify just shoot me or bouncer a message. you'll most likely get it if you're relatively active in the channel and post sdv related art [doesn't have to be a lot]. you won't get it if you're a very new member or you're not a high enough level. information is in #445729591533764620 but the "don't ask for artisan" part is a little outdated now

there are a lot of amazing artists in here with blue names so don't feel bad if you don't have the role; the role's about sdv, not your art skill. don't force yourself to do anything you don't want to, please keep posting and making your beautiful art.

#

i'll keep this pinned for a little bit but remove it later

acoustic gulch
#

i lov all ur thoughtful writings abt creative jade

unkempt tinsel
#

awww thanks

fleet gazelle
#

@ebon briar grats on artisan!

#

and the rest are either modder or offline

unkempt tinsel
#

fleet gazelle
#

#

did deer also get it?

echo mesa

πŸ‘€

unkempt tinsel
#

morris, coldazrael, hershel, and pantran got artisan

acoustic gulch
#

πŸ‘ πŸ‘

unkempt tinsel
#

again there are more likely more who should get the role but as i said i went through the art for a while an those were the ones i saw, so anyone who thinks they qualify give me a shout out

#

i specifically searched for ur art ria because i thught you'd be artisan, i love ur past art pls post more

fleet gazelle
#

lol

#

@pastel iris @fringe gyro @fringe coyote grats on artisan all of you

#

anyways, speaking of another that's qualified, I'm rooting for hecatta and milktea

fringe gyro
#

pish-posh, coldazrael. your crooked cat is great

pastel iris
#

Imo those 2 deserved the role

fleet gazelle
#

true heca does

pastel iris
#

and alien as well

fleet gazelle
#

and Persephone just not level 25

echo mesa
#

does alien do SDV art? I've mostly being seeing magical girls from them

pastel iris
#

wait, it must be SDV art now? SDVPufferthink

echo mesa
#

their magical girls r prtty awesome tho

fleet gazelle
#

yea cold

echo mesa
#

Ye? Its always been an SDV art thing?

fleet gazelle
#

Given to active artists in the community. You have to be a Farmer (level 25) and have your work posted by @Artisan Leah in addition to being active and friendly. This role tends to be added in waves; do not ask for this role.

unkempt tinsel
#

yes and i even recapped that in my post

#

"you'll most likely get it if you're relatively active in the channel and post sdv related art [doesn't have to be a lot]. you won't get it if you're a very new member or you're not a high enough level. information is in #445729591533764620 but the "don't ask for artisan" part is a little outdated now"

"there are a lot of amazing artists in here with blue names so don't feel bad if you don't have the role; the role's about sdv, not your art skill."

#

to reiterate as well

echo mesa
#

^~^

unkempt tinsel
#

there are a lot of artists here that i want to smash with the artisan role but they never post sdv things

#

however, them posting despite this means a lot and they are very welcome here all the same

pastel iris
#

I just rolling thru art-gallery and alien has a sdv art pinned

unkempt tinsel
#

alien isn't a farmer

pastel iris
#

oh nvm I forgot it needs to be farmer rank xD

#

all things in due time. uwu

unkempt tinsel
#

yup yup

#

everyone here is great, i look forward to more art

thorn pulsar
#

I need to start posting my actual art vs edited sprites

#

at some point xD

#

or some of my non-SDV pixel art

unkempt tinsel
#

yeah i'd love to see it

#

well for those who's still villager, best of luck on junkposting til farmer :x

by the way guys, any idea for furniture clutters other than books, flowers and plants?

dolls, right why don't I think of that πŸ€” thanks

fleet gazelle
#

the ones that have another doll inside?

stable elbow
#

photo frames

unkempt tinsel
#

if you're going for other antique/creepyish stuff a yoba symbol would be cool in place of a crucifix

#

photo frames is a good idea

#

yeeeee frozen those

pastel iris
#

umm although my furniture mod is gothic, it's not actually creepy stuff xD

unkempt tinsel
#

well that's what i meant

pastel iris
#

it's more like modern gothic

#

soo dolls and photo frames..

#

and vases or some ceramic stuff, right, I hope that's enough

#

thx guys SDVPufferHeart

#

anyways jade, yoba symbol has been on my mind, only that I haven't found the right place

#

crucifix could fill 6x6 or 4x4 space, but yoba symbol couldn't do it

#

it needs at least 5x5 for yoba

acoustic gulch
#

@ jade i read up a bit and now i have actual happy tears in my eyes. ive been so uGH about art since i quit artschool but i just guess i needed to read some nice words so ty it means the world to me specially comin from u ahhh

pastel iris
#

compressing symbols to pixel can be quite pain sometimes xD

#

or perhaps no need to add yoba symbol because shane is surely hating it :V

thorn pulsar
#

I mean, I'd download the pack for a yoba symbol I can like. put on my wall. like that alone I'd be down for

unkempt tinsel
#

Aww you deserve it ria pls

#

And fair on compressing symbols

pastel iris
#

talking about lore, does the farmer even worship yoba?

#

using those altars from witch hut doesn't seem to be.. worshipping yoba lol

unkempt tinsel
#

the farmer does if they want to i suppose

acoustic gulch
#

i dont think the game makes actualr reference to it? grandpa hass a symbol in his room but thats abt it

unkempt tinsel
#

witch altars i doubt are associated with yoba

thorn pulsar
#

can't you buy Yoba statues somewhere?

#

like. statues of the symbol

unkempt tinsel
#

yeah from krobus

pastel iris
#

krobus sells it

thorn pulsar
#

I like to buy one and put it near Grandpa's shrine

pastel iris
#

i've been thinking on theorising if there is another deity than yoba

#

that witch hut stuff is appealing proof if there is another deity, and luau doesn't give a look of yoba-ish

unkempt tinsel
#

well it's up to how you interpret the game really, that kind of think idk will ever be truly canonized

#

for sure it's a very magical world and people can believe in both the light and dark

fringe gyro
#

luau is just a party

unkempt tinsel
#

i wouldn't even say yoba is truly canon, it's what people believe and they might be magical too so that could be proof

#

i personally like to think yoba is an actual thing in the world

#

but if someone else just thinks it's a reflection of irl beliefs then, that's fine too

#

aliens actually are canon though so there's that

thorn pulsar
#

which is great

unkempt tinsel
#

lmao yes

stable elbow
#

dwarves are actually aliens

unkempt tinsel
#

so i mean, i think pretty much everything in the game has some kind of backing

#

but yeah

#

fosho

pastel iris
#

wait aliens are canon? o.O

#

I thought it's only a rarecrow?

unkempt tinsel
#

there are several references to aliens

#

including what hellcat said

#

but i don't wanna go deep into spoiler territory rly

#

but yeah you can shape your mods in that direction if u want

pastel iris
#

I prefer to ask CA but I doubt he will respond 😦

stable elbow
#

why not?

pastel iris
#

jev already tried :/

stable elbow
#

oh

#

well dwarves are technically aliens

acoustic gulch

some thign are better left ot the imaginatiionn 🌈

maybe you should try and schedule a QA thing or osmething with him

does CA even do scheduling for that sort of thing?

thank you! it's a shame that krobus is a cool shadow monster and we never get to see any shadowy monstery stuff from him

stable elbow
#

blobby boy

acoustic gulch
#

agree! i kinda wish the shadow brutes had more of a wispy appereance or somethin

#

i tested the mod just now and all my code is working so it's just down to refining the art and then i can release it!

unkempt tinsel
#

you got this

ember sequoia
#

should work fine with mods that have dialogue expansions for him too!

i love this good boy

#

thank you

ember sequoia
#

any concrit on what i could refine is welcome!! probably @ me tho this server is too big for me to not have muted hfdkjhfds

acoustic gulch
#

@ember sequoia only lil thing i just noticed lookin at it again is the lil heart on his blushy one? mayb you could position it so it looks a lil more natural? cos when i lean away from the pc a bit it looks like its a different piece kinda? idk if this makes sense dfghj

pastel iris
#

ooogh krobus tennisball tenpoles tortellini tentacles

ember sequoia
#

yeahhh it was hard to figure out how to place that... maybe tilting it to one side a bit more would help?

acoustic gulch
#

yeh! maybe

#

i think there like, 2px that kinda overlap to the inside of the heart so that migth help too?

pastel iris
#

heck, none of my furniture have 18x12 empty spaces lmao

ember sequoia
#

yeah idk if there even is any furniture that does.... theres an Even Bigger one that i reffed this off of that shows up as a picture on grandpa's wall

pastel iris
#

the smallest so far I think is the yoba painting in harvey's clinic

#

by the way, is abby and sebby canonically into goth stuff? πŸ€”

#

they do have a look of gothic boy/girl I think, but not sure if it's canon

unkempt tinsel
#

abigail is more into gothic stuff while sebastian likes more medieval stuff

#

well "gothic" idk if she's really into it

stable elbow
#

more supernatural than anything

thorn pulsar
#

they're both occult and adventure nerds

#

Abigail more toward the occult, Sebastian more toward the adventure.

#

they're both interested in the supernatural, though Sebastian's interest seems to be more fiction-based than Abigail's

pastel iris
#

fascinating xD looks like people have really diff point of view on this

thorn pulsar
#

I wouldn't say either are necessarily portrayed as gothic, though both are reasonably alternative

#

It's not an unfair stretch to make them more gothic-inspired, as some modders have done

ember sequoia
#

i'd say seb is more supposed to evoke the emo style than goth, abby i would call goth tho? but yeah it wouldnt be a stretch at all to lean into it more

thorn pulsar
#

this is true

calarts and artschool drama πŸ‘€ πŸ€”

iydk calarts raised it's tuition to 50K+ a year

stable elbow
acoustic gulch
#

yikes

#

why woudl you do that to yourself

#

also, for anyone that is curious

#

i remember back then there was a lot of interesting stuff back and forth.

stable elbow
#

most ppl want studio jobs and this is pretty much the only way

candid citrus
#

50k a year ............. bruh

acoustic gulch
#

but how many will actually get that job ya kno?

#

make sme sad

stable elbow
#

im only a hobbyist but damn

#

ppl seeking professional careers in art are getting screwed over

candid citrus
#

'the cost of a four year education at RISD is $245,816' ?!?!? quarter of a million Holy Shit

acoustic gulch
#

that article is from 2013 willooo

#

so it woudl be even higher now

stable elbow
#

shits just not affordable unless you got rich parents

candid citrus
stable elbow
#

two years back i knew a senior who was accepted into calarts but he couldn't go bc that shit was way too damn expensive

acoustic gulch
#

I know of pelnty of artists that have gotten jobs in animation without goin to those schools so ther eis hope for peeps yet

#

yeh i know some ppl like that too cat, its so dfghjkl

stable elbow
#

and it was his dream

acoustic gulch
#

if your dream is goin to an art school thats- kinda.. setting urself up fro a lot of frustration

#

you can get whatever artschool gets u on your own so hopefully ur friend wasnt too discouraged

candid citrus
#

wouldn't it be way cheaper for american students to go abroad to study ?

rich delta
#

it is!

#

My dream is to be an author
I'm currently enrolled in Literary Studies for the coming year in the Netherlands for 10k a year
Meanwhile, a similar education in america...33k a year.

#

Plus, I get my bachelor's in only 3 years compared to 4!

#

So 30k total tuition...compared to what, 132k?

acoustic gulch
#

yeaah, i think mayb ppl dont look into it cos it can be Scary but its def and interetsing option

rich delta
#

I won't lie, their standards are high. Very high. Even with my honor-roll background, clean slate of a record, and advanced placement with one year's worth of medical school, I'm still required to take a College Board exam as my entrance exam and score a 50/80 on it in either French or German.

#

Whereas in America, you basically apply and get accepted, ngl, depending on the school. (I'm not saying Harvard or Yale does this, but most community colleges will)

acoustic gulch
#

Yeah, thats tru, i think it requires a looot of research. and obvs the cheaper places are gonna be not in Europe and the US i'd assume, but thos eare probs nicer to live in so. it would be cool if there was a resource somewhere with a list of popular art schools/institues over the world

Alternative education is hella good. I'd probably only recommend going to university if a.) you can afford it, b.) you wanna do it for fun (like me), or c.) you need connections. It's great for connections, especially if you aren't the outgoing type.

#

I'd never go to art school since I wouldn't want any of the above, but I am in humanities major.

opinions on the art grind

today i got in a fight with some people because they said the art grind is a bad thing because itll make you hate art

#

almost shat

acoustic gulch
#

his name is a pun??? i like him even more now

#

im not sure what an art grind is snaf?? but u do you i think! as long as ur happy ya kno

dire phoenix
#

i don't know what that says but it's good anyway

atomic elbow
#

its like, putting in a lot of time to practice and get better

#

like the top peopel do yknow the TOP TIER

#

artistic grinders

acoustic gulch
#

ooh

#

i think it really depends on why you're doing it?

onyx island
#

Well it could case burnout lol

#

but on the other hand if you can endure it you'll have a lot of practice and improvement in short time

atomic elbow
#

enduring burnout is part of the grind

acoustic gulch
#

if you're a hobbyist thats just on it for fun then it seems counterproductiva but if you're trying to cultivate it as skill then i get that

atomic elbow
#

you need to push through imo

#

yeah i guess hobbyist is fine whatever

#

i just constantly see people who complain about wanting to get better and then dont put in the work or time to do

#

dont even have any goals in mind

acoustic gulch
#

oh yeh, i see that a lot too but- its rly personal how relaxed u want your approach to be

atomic elbow
#

and then i say to get on that GRIND and theyre like "but itll make me hate art"

#

if you like art so much nothing should make you hate it yknow

acoustic gulch
#

hmm yeh, thats interesting tbh

#

i think you can get yourself to hate anything tho

#

if you overthink shit enough

#

artschool made me hate.. not art specifically but i made so many negative associations that i stopped enjoying it

#

ymmv

atomic elbow
#

ieither way i guess i just try to be committed yknow

#

constant day to day grind

onyx island
#

I would never go to a school about something as subjective as art aHyperLuL

acoustic gulch
#

ur smarter than me makco

and snaf, i wish i was more liek that tbh

#

when youre making a game oyuk inda have to be that way

acoustic gulch
#

ahh i guess that makes sense

dire phoenix
#

So like, I wanna add a crop from SDV to a game i'm working on, but i'm not really sure if ape's okay with someone just doing that. I emailed 'em to see if i can get permission but I'm assuming they're way too busy to have noticed it

#

should i just like, add it anyway and see how it goes or is there a good way to get in contact with 'em

acoustic gulch
#

you can do a vaguely inspired thing?

#

Celestial Crop vs starfruit or something

dire phoenix
#

I could? but i like direct references to stuff :B

#

i have a plant from rain world already

#

(also starfruit is a real thing and it's friggin' WILD dude)

safe path
#

Maybe you should message CA in discord

#

Idk if he'll see it, but it doesnt hurt to try

acoustic gulch
#

yikes dont ping him

dire phoenix
#

yeah nah

#

i don't wanna come off as creepy or something, i already tried twitter and email so i don't wanna be like PLS REPLY SENPAI

acoustic gulch
#

if starfruit is a real thing then i dotn see why u woudlnt be able to include it thoo?

dire phoenix
#

I'm thinkin more ancient fruit?

#

that one's definitely fictional

acoustic gulch
#

ah yeh idk abt that

#

i woudlnt like people using my stuff without permission in their own things but

#

maybe that changes when u get big im not sure

dire phoenix
#

yeah

#

i'd rather not take my chances either way

acoustic gulch

mayb be better that way

maybe they'll reply later and u can inculde it ya never kno!

just to let you know I'm not following flashy-vanilla colours xD

slate yoke

I have an innate bias against dark palettes, they always feel drab to me :/

frigid depot

Those look so good though

pastel iris
#

I don't actually have bias against dark or light palettes, as long the contrast is not as high as vanilla

#

also I'm not sure which one of the plants/parts you refer for being a little dark fable? πŸ€”

slate yoke
#

I mean the general palette as a whole. I, personally, deal in more saturated and bright colors so to me everything here is dark

#

It's not a mistake on your part or anything, you use your colors right

#

It's a personal taste thing

pastel iris
#

hmm then eemie's, mi's and yellog's furniture mod looks dark in your eyes?

slate yoke
#

Never touched those mods so I can't say

slate yoke

Yeah all of these are using the overall darker palettes that just aren't to my personal fancy.

slate yoke
#

YES

pastel iris
#

it matters with the in-game story I think, I personally felt like sdv is not an 'all happy' game

stable elbow
#

the colors 😩

slate yoke
#

It's true, SDV isn't happy under the surface, but the default aesthetic embraces the idea that despite the hurt there's still a bright world worth living in

#

It isn't cold or jaded, and everyone who hurts eventually finds a way to reconcile that

pastel iris
#

||talking about wars between nation (ferngill vs gotoro) and wars between races (dwarves vs shadow peoples)||

slate yoke
#

Ye, I hear you

#

But that's also the deep lore

#

Games like Splatoon are similar

#

While the deep lore might be dark and disturbing, the surface level stuff is still bright and cheerful

Because despite the history, the world is moving on

the colours on the blue ones are very jarring, and the top left could use a bit more contrast I think

@tepid scarab add shading and texturing

it looks like some of ur rigs are made of plastic

the 4th of july ones im not a fan of the blue tbh?

The blue aren't finished

Well, the upper is closer, I just need the exact hue for the presidential seal

acoustic gulch

yeh yeh i know, but im not a fan of the shade personally . and yeah, i'd add some texture too, like some cross patterns like the vanilla ones have mayb.

#

maybe isntead of havign 4 USAs u coudl make the eagles be closer to the edge and just have one in the center? it feels a lil weird to have text readable from every aid, but again, that might be personal pref

#

Thank you all for the input. it's helpful. Still curious where you suggest shading though @serene frost. The main rug color?

@tepid scarab you should add shading to the rug itself not just the icons

#

10-30 minutes max (without the coloring)

that's still something

ur cat in #creative looks great
I just dont know how one can Live without layers

wraith nova
#

aaww thanks Jar!

echo mesa
#

If not for layers I'd frequently ruin an aspect and give up rather than continuing lmao

wraith nova
#

well since I only draw straight how I want to draw it even with pencil, I don't even know how to "layers" and such so you guys here are really amazing imo

fleet gazelle
#

I use autodesk sketchbook

echo mesa
#

I have autodesk sketchbook on my phone
I find the app Sketch works better tho

fleet gazelle
#

Well I use iPad so

wraith nova
#

which is also why my drawing never that complicated and mostly kinda chibi styled since they are easy, just basically a fat round version of anything hehe

echo mesa
#

Sketch is probably on iPad too

#

If you wanna go complicated, no harm in trying paint.net smetime to get a taste for layers
but also like, ur arts Good how you do it now

thorn pulsar
#

@wraith nova as someone who also started on paint, paint.net is a good next step

fleet gazelle
#

Paint as ms paint?

thorn pulsar
#

and I can't recommend Krita enough as the step up after that, because it's not designed for paint-style art, but I've certainly used it to make some

#

yes

wraith nova
#

practice but also by trying it on pencil first before I re-draw it on paint cause it will help me to know how I should go with the mouse better, I used to only draw for 1-3 minutes haha which only drawing blob of face/animal mostly.. now I spent until 30 minutes.. and mostly because my mouse is not cooperating well.. or my lines too weird since I cannot make anything symmetrical to begin with..

being able to draw exactly the lines you want is liberating, and I don't think I've ever drawn a more symmetrical pair of eyes xD

#

aw that's cute

echo mesa
#

I do like the almost crayon texture to it lol

wraith nova
echo mesa
#

oo, thats cute too

wraith nova
#

which took really long haha

echo mesa
#

still seems vaguely crayon-esque, 10/10

wraith nova
#

which makes me feel so proud and happy tbh

#

hehehe

echo mesa
#

;D

#

thats an awesome amount of improvement

#

imagine how gr8 you'll be with just a few more months
always awesome to see an artist improve SDVPufferHeart

wraith nova
#

tho tbh, its still basically the same tool the crayon thing cause I like them.. it just not that seenable now cause I draw in larger size

#

so the crayon-effect doesnt seems so much hehe

echo mesa
#

crayon-effect is gr8

wraith nova
#

aaww.. thanks Jar.. I hope I can improve further

#

I kinda hit a huge wall with hands and eyes with paint.. but then again.. I also cannot draw them using pencil either, so that's my obstacles to get to the other level for now..

#

its because all this time I only draw eyes with big dot/big hollow dot or just a line

echo mesa
#

hands are always Hard tbh
could get one of those Fake Hand model things? and just kinda
Study The Hand

wraith nova
#

so making amazing eyes like how people draw it.. Idk how ,I saw some tutorial and such but I cannot do it.. so I feel like I need to find my own style first it seems

#

I dont draw well with examples tbf, so I usually just think and try to make it happen haha

echo mesa
#

Plenty of paths to take to get there, and no real time limit
with practise you'll get there
idk how I learnt eyes? I think I just did Junky Eyes and eventually improved

wraith nova
#

indeed hehe ^^ practice and practice hehe..
I see..

#

drawing Junimos are always helping when I feel down and stuck

#

they reminds me of how my first step of drawing was, they are cute and easy to make which always brings me right back up and try to think for a solution of where I need to improve more to make the same level of cuteness in my other drawing SDVPufferHeart

echo mesa
#

lol, thats awesome
and there is Never Too Much Junimo Art

wraith nova
#

indeed, I actually got licensed to make my Junimotes as LINE sticker now

#

so that's something that really helped to boos my confidence as well and I'm really happy with it ofc

echo mesa
#

;D

#

guns and machinery are a bit more logical than things like people once you get perspective down

onyx island
#

yeah guns don't have body types and hairstyles

candid haven
#

From my observation, artists who lean towards being left-brained tend to get the hang of drawing machinery more quickly

onyx island
#

and most important, they don't have HANDS

devout stream
#

i mean, guns technically do have bodytypes and hairstyles

onyx island
devout stream

attachments and alternative magazines, etc etc

#

but

#

that is true

#

they dont have hands

#

thank goodness

safe goblet
#

no it's just more like

#

they're not... malleable

#

yknow?

devout stream
#

thats just a fancy way of saying they dont have hands

safe goblet
#

they are rigid forms and often easy to break down into shapes like boxes or cylinders

strong ingot
#

what about transformers? πŸ‘€

safe goblet
#

compare that to a shoulder or torso

candid haven
#

I used to not draw hands... mostly because I didn't draw humans

safe goblet
#

even transformers are just a bunch of boxes

#

and mechas

devout stream
#

im a bunch of boxes too

safe goblet
#

a bunch of squishy boxes that twist and are rounded though
