Of course

The most ive done is a dancing pickle
It was funky
Anyway this Mark's the start of me being active in creative discussion

this is what I needed...
imagine having the motivation and patience to draw everyday
I finally found it to be fair
it just takes motivation and perseverance to do it
Pro tip for the start: draw from life, understand forms and perspective
exactly what I will put my time into
I combine both work out and time to draw, this feels amazing
trying artfight for the first time
What does it do
@echo mesa Milk looks good! But where’s my girl leah tho
Ah yeah, making a schedule for how you use your time helps a lot, for example I go to work 5 days a week but have time to draw in the morning and when I arrive home I can finish the drawing or in the next morning so like, 4 hours a day? Depends on what I study and how much time it needs, I'm going to keep on it
Putting games aside was a big step but I can't say I quit them 😂
Mm, I always dedicate night time to drawing while I watch something on Netflix and multitask on discord, I really can’t find time for games anymore- if I have any spare time then you bet it’s getting put towards art, otherwise I find myself appalled at how much of a waste that time was aha
Indeed!!!
I feel like in the morning you are fresh and opened for more ideas but then at the night time it says your brain works at full capacity though you feel tired
Art is good civ
I haven’t said anything about it yet but I love your art rase
tysm 
I don't know anything about them but they can top me
Sam
Lol
Oodles of doodles 
noodles?
Ooh noodles
Lmaooo
I just found this
Uhhh studies?
he shure dose love his cat!
right!
currently drawing my character that is in AI dungeon
THAT LOOKS SO XOOL
That's one beeg hammer
beeeg ham- bruh
Ill draw my character holding a machine gun
he is a blacksmith with a massive hammer to smash his enemies
but he does tend do smash their heads with his hammer
he do be looking..
fine
the thing is i need space for the mouth
So i keep seeing insta posts telling artists that a consistent art feed brings more people to want to view your content
This is mine and like
and like
idk, i wanna make a painting on black paper/darker painting (like my most recent one) but it doesnt fit with the color scheme and it upsets me to have my feed so cluttered
just draw whatever you like 
if you do follow trends you will just restrict your art styles and lose the enjoyment of drawing
why insta gotta be like this

insta people are obsessed with getting followers and numbers. it's great to be recognized but i've known one too many IG and twitter artists that burnt out hard just by looking at numbers. because they only drew for the likes and follows and shares. barely for themselves.
there's nothing wrong with chasing fame. just try not to get lost on it along the way
^^what Brosepher says. And another thing is that numbers are kind of random. I can never predict them
who needs followers when only thing you need is having fun

they will eventually come to you
and appreciate for who you are
Yes, a hundred followers that like you vs 1,000 followers that only want one thing . You'll find much more enjoyment in the first
i mean, its a bit more complex than that
to earn a living from art, you tend to need some following
and just doing whats fun isnt going to get you that
need a careful balance
or ig 1 follower that pays you for art is better than 1000
I overlook that but you have a valid point. I do not rely on my art to support me
people seek what they like, you can't change their taste
2 important questions we should ask ourselves are: 1. why do I want to become an artist? and 2. what is my goal?
that keeps our motivation up to push forward
my goal is to express myself through something that i love
to get my voice out there
great! hold on that thought and do your best
okie dokie!
so i have a few ideas but im not sure which do to first
either a comic to fit with the comic trend (But ill make it into something i like)
a pearlescant drawing on black paper
a drawing of my two best friends (lesbian couple uwu)
or a piece that i wanna frame that has the quote "born from the grave" which is like my sorta thing now
or drawing @echo mesa as a zombie 👀
👀
all
o
which will you have most fun with?
im not quite sure! comic is nice but not very fun since it's hard to do
and the black paper i've been wanting to do for a while
black paper, then lesbian then comic?
and zombie whenever u like
the most fun will prolly be my two friends or the born from the grave thing
alrighty!
ill do the sketch for both of them so i can decide once i did
;D
thanks jar! ill do u as a zombie soon
uwu i look forward 2 it ;D
okie :)
I wanted to show off my oc and my improvement lmao 👁👄👁
Looks good
It is pretty easy once you get used to it
Yup
I did some squares first that looked wonky and then tried this
Rulers are really nice when doing it
Yeah but they smudge a little
Yeah but my hand isn’t so steady to make straight enough lines without it
I will try further 2 and 3 point perspective, it gives a great train of how environment works
Good luck lol
Thanks 
Make sure to wash your hands after going out
!!!
GD wtf....
need doodle suggestions > u >
- i love your pfp
- i suggest the beautiful man that is the subject of your pfp because he's my fav in all of the jojo universe
original song : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MtOpB5LlUA
edit Feb 2020: it seems some people are misunderstanding this video's origin. i am the original animator for this video, here are actual wip videos of me animating it
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1y4HPuceFGWO_rgu...
LMAO that's amazing, best animation i've seen for jojo thus far
@rich delta
Sketches always look better than the final thing
@mighty bronze perspective is so good for you!
Lol thank you! I will take some time to try 2 and 3 point too
Did you try flipping the image?
If you do that you'll notice the glasses look a little wonky? At least this is what I see, the portrait is cool!
Yeah i think the glasses look so wonky sekdjf
thenk!! but yeah probably should fix the glasses
wasnt sure if i was the only one seeing it be abit off

I wanted to show off my oc and my improvement lmao 👁👄👁

Hi, so, I'd like opinions about a sketch I have, can I post it here?

Awwee
💖
lmaoo the artist life mann high five
👌
Not to be dramatic but I would die protecting dis art

haha bald
👌
Mmmmm the strokes and the details

fuck yes
should i make the hair as short and messed up as the short one or a bit longer like this? 
I preffer more short and messed
God I'm a sucker for long hairs, but I'm more leaning on the short one 
the thing is, hes a human version of some troll and i play him kinda like a rich bastard man, where the longer one would be more fitting, but he doesnt care about shit and would 10/10 shoot you, wHICh goes to the short one and im just 
aight, ill do the short one,, thank
I would pay him to step me tbh, i love him >:"0
So finally finished sketching them all, wishing for my motivation not to run away tomorrow

I can't get enough of what this guy have to share
@blissful sonnet
no problem

So Im asking advice on my drawing
Hands and head are still work in progress
But wondering if the pose is fine or do i need to change things?
ur fine, the pose looks good to me
you could make the tail bend more if you wanted to be more flowy
hmmm, i think they look good! you could bend them a little too but i think they're fine as is
idk if it has to be your favourite animal tbh
and theres no tests or anything
just decide ur a furry and ur a furry
pretty much what jar said
They left 
f
Oof F
Cutee!
for hands, don’t forget they curve around abit if they are wrapping around smthin else, they are only straight if, well, yknow they are holding their hand out straight like you are showing off an engagement ring or smthin lol

Got it
So beside the hands which I suck at
does anything else look odd to u?
For everything else it looks pretty good! I haven’t really studied mermaids aha

For everything else it looks pretty good! I haven’t really studied mermaids aha
H2o
LOL
idk much about art but i like it
✨
What's this what's his
@blissful sonnet make the tail a bit more...how to say it, curvy? less stiff :) i like it though
Curvy.... 
But I guess make it longer is what I'd do
Gotcha
more natural and sorta just soft curves

Bg whacha want an opinion on?
u got this buddy o
oh thought you couldn’t find the picture necro lol
not like i changed the tail a billion times
ngl the hands look a bit awkwardly placed but they're pretty good! just seems like a position that would be uncomfortable
yeah im trying to change the position
If you wanna do a curled up pose, I’d suggest looking at a few refs from people doing it
It’s a hard pose, and it’s always helpful
Yeah my hands would kinda slump into each other if they were gonna be in that pos
I really like the way you drew the tail-ends.
They have a natural look in my opinion. Sometimes curvers can seem copy-pasted or like everyone does them the same when it comes to a certain subject but yours look really unique and nice
And the chest design for the clothing is really cool too
How it cuts across the upper-chest zone.
thank u
It almost looks like there's a dress benieth
@lament turtle I used a reference for a mermaid but Ill look into the curled up one
i think you're starting pretty good bg!

oh the lower arm on the right seems a bit shorter than the arm on the left but hey you'll improve with time i promise
^^ it’s still good, but sketching out the anatomy and learning how it will bend along the mermaid could be helpful for this
But it’s still very good, and cute
Thank yall so much for the helpful tips
npp
yessir
OH
not in the middle between the fold and the end of the tail
OHHH
I tried to get into mermaid anatomy awhile ago but gave up,, this was the first thing I tried 
that seems pretty difficult
i could prolly cook up a mermaid for a commission if asked
Idk, you donut have to deal with leggu, might be easier
i read that twice
same
im very sorry smookie but i dont get it
ooo so flowwyyyy! I love
larger at the top
Also my comment still stands: make the tail longer
And thinner
Ehhh you make it chubbt
Oh yeah def
Dbwbsjs you're welcome
the tail seems long enough tbh
Nah it's gotta not be 1-1 with the torso since it'll look a bit wonky
now im thinking I made the tail too long
No that's good
wait let me send photo
It's gotta be proportional
It's all in the proportions
If you want a shorter tail, you have to find a way to make it work

Yup that's good

@rustic plume oh what i meant is the length she had was good
please dont fuck me
I had a ref for that
Outline, and then the shapes :p
Yeah I know how to do that
I do not like drawing hands
me neither
bg dont forget that the arm on the right of the drawing is too short compared to the other
Yeah, I have lots of vids saved but I had this red saved for some reason 🤔
yeah im adjusting that as we chat
You probably know but elbows somewhere around the waist
Mine end at the start of my hips lol
So idk
yup
Yeah, that’s why I said around
XD
Same though
Mmmmm now I wanna draw a mermaid
But I need to go in like,,, less than an hour 🤔
Travelling back home finally

Hope the trip will be safe
Me too ^^
Train shaky though 😰
I might be able to draw a quick mer before
👀
Well thank you xD
yeah welcome bellus!
I’ve been here a while 👀
you're gonna see me around here alot cough
XD
I just,,, decided to stop lurking 👀
Ooo

I have been thinking of drawing stardew characters for a while 🤔 gotta get around to it sooner or later 👀
last time i drew sdv characters was when i couldnt draw
pfft-
HAHA
this isnt an sdv character but my farmer
👀
She pretty

Love her hair
thats before i started shading hair

Gotta draw my farmer even if I have pretty much already done it with my pfp lmao
Such a cool top she has

Well mine, only one save. XD
I ship him with my farmer boy Paolo like FedEx and DHL~!

The third save is where I chose to be forager
I just hope he got a job tho, also a heart scene where we he gives a kiss to us

Feeling like drawing him now
Im drawing a mermaid rn
Take your time BG~!
hmm well mermaids aren't in sdv so I think you should just make it your own character 
what i meant was make an sdv character a mermaid
but ill make it my own character from what u said
@tough rover hahah i tried. I wish I can digital rn but my laptop is broken
Hope you like it
Yay ❤️

Wait realised I posted in wrong channel

SKXNSKHW TRUEE

So cuteee!!
💖
@rustic plume lovely!

Qiuooot

Ima work on dat too
I remember when I used to do drawings like that
the Boys
Used a reference for this one
@glossy steppe avdols hair tho 
Alright I’m done
love the outline 
very nice dog
Wœf
trying my hardest to make this cave as close to sdv as possible, this is really just the idea, but does anyone have any suggestions? please don't focus on the character
maybe adding a torch
the rock layout is good
but the walls should be rocks also
last night
4 year evolution
(spoiler for: humanization(gijinka(?)), some edgy shit but it's bad)
wew what an improvement
ye, thamk uvu
@crude gorge nice wolf my dude
My one friend got this weird giant frog in her main game file, so it gave me the idea to draw my sdv sona and 2 friends' sonas with our fav husbands eee
I dunno might render it soon
that is a big purple frog thing
i-i'd like some thoughts especially with the hair
are you asking how to add volume to it? handwise, it's okay, sans some minor size weirdness or maybe it's just your style. because it lookes like a glove than a hand at the moment. but then again it's still a sketch
i also cannot type it seems
Yeh I did fix the hand a lot
But the hair was what I was worried the most about hsbs
Like if it looks weird or nah
what exactly about it? because i can't comment abt it if it's style choices
ahhh
no it's fine
is it the hair on the side? does it make it look... un uniform?
it looks good my dude

oHoOo... tim. my boi. 👀
they're cute.
thenks!!
Aaaaa love your style Frogg ;;;;
thanks friend!!
thenks i hate lineart
Same
we clean the sketch layer and die
That's why I leave it at sketch layer
lmao thats basically my sketch and lineart
god same dude
just clean that shit up yknow
dam, u clean ur sketch layer? i leave it being chaos
lmao thats my sketch layer already
messy sketch then fix whatever while colouring/shading
gud nuff
lmao lets gooo
@gilded remnant btw I think saving that as a .jpg file caused the pixels to compress. Try .png 
@rustic plume soooooooooo.... which episdode are you in?
oof. i'm still desperately behind hahi
lmao dw it took me like 2? 3? weeks to get caught up
i'm on ep 105. i started a couple or so days ago i think
2nd season jon killed me. season 3 jon and everybody else is worrying me 8)
This might not be on topic. 
mood, Brosepher but lmao u can dm if u wanna yell about tma
aight. will do
@rustic plume can't message you nor can i send requests due to your restrictions. you have to do it to me
ikrsdf wac
@solo yea I am going to tr to do it your way
working on cheese's starbound character
so many dam novakids
cheese asked for it 
Got a clean style there Micko. Anatomy is good too.
Im going to be getting back into pixel art but i have my eyes set on 1 theme/game for my next few arts and that would be stardew
Can i leave masking fluid on for a day?
Idk what that is
It's like masking tape but for art canvases.
@lament turtle Found this guide: https://www.jetpens.com/blog/how-to-use-masking-fluid/pt/962
They recommend leaving it on no more than two days, and you should always let it dry naturally (not using heat for example) and not expose to sunlight. Also, be sure to use sturdy paper such as watercolor paper.
Masking fluid lets you easily cover parts of your artwork that you don’t want to paint over, preserving lighter colors and the vibrant white of the paper for details and highlights. We walk you through how to use masking fluid with a video and detailed instructions.
Okie
Neat stuff though. Didn't know it existed until now.
Interesting
I use it and can confirm some brands smell really bad
Idk what I was doing last night lol
*good art
great art*
https://soundcloud.com/evilpickle-music-dept/mega-man-x2-bubble-crab Decided to do this one finally
Listen to Mega Man X2 - Bubble Crab by MissCorielsVGMusicRequest #np on #SoundCloud
3 point perspective sucks ass
workin on a pic of shane (what's new lol) and trying to decide on if i want a background for this and what sort of background if so. any suggestions?
first off- I love that so frickin much 
second- maybe Marnies house? Or something like where the cows are there, if that makes sense.
thank you!! and i was thinking maybe marnie's house in the background with mostly sky?? then again i might want to play around with interesting lighting so im like 🤔
like the roof? I can see that if the camera was at an angle
if you want interesting lighting maybe do it at sunset
oooh true!! sunset would be good
because I've always wanted to try that but I'm not good with lighting so-
and like more like he's in the cow pen / field and you can see the house in the distance
yes! I can see that
nice! i will work on that soon 👁️
I'm excited heehee
braids are hard to draw
i bring teef
teeeefsss
