i did my first digital art piece
last year this time
then i didnt draw anything after that til september of this year
so im fairly new to digital art
ur doing rly awesomely ;D
have you done a redraw of that first digital art? could be a fun way to see improvement
i think i started doing digital art in 2014 or 2015?
nah i dont wannt touch it again
i hate it
ill just leave it as a moment in time
damn you started early
idk how i got into art this deep tbh
cause i really only drew for school
and that wasnt fun at all
idk about early, i dont think i was rly serious about it until like
end of last year lol

i gotta do at least another three year of art 2 complete this
i think im gonna do one of those for next year
;D i love art summaries
like a drawing for each month
ye, ive done one every year for five years ;D
theyre great bc one art per month is generally achievable
and then eventually you're a few years in and its just
'o dang, thas a lot of art'
touches fingies together i made two summaries for 2020 so id have an easier time picking
Ahh gotcha
it wont lemme send my other one ;-;
have you ever done exploring a different art style milk?
the chibi looks nice!
That reminds me, I shall redraw some chibis I did
thank ^~^ its from 2017 ;D
good luck smookie!
man that was a while ago
just a lil ago ;D
makes me feel old 
i just started drawing seriously this year so i cant say i have anything from a while ago LOL
you're mid-teens right?
it'll still be awesome to look back on your art from now in ten yrs time ;D
i guess 14 is mid teen
Progress is something i hope that i can see in 10 years!!
i knew you were around 14-15 but didnt remember exact age lol
im sure you'll have plenty of improvement in a year even
teenagers absorb skills like funky lil sponges
like, yeah, adults can build on skills too
but teenagers have a kinda unique way of doing it thats rly cool
some ppl still dont know i turned 14 already
i try to remember Rain's age, and you're somewhat close to her age
so makes it easier to remember
i guess it can be because we are still developing so its easier to retain memory??
Oh wow, quick question milk, how old are u-
23 ;D
birthday was in September
September best month ;D
nope ;D i wanna do smething better than my usual so im kind of avoiding the amount of effort it'll take ๐
Hah, January kid, I'm focused on a project for me and another artist
tell us about the project does ghost fingies u want to tell us about the project ghost voice

the fact smookie only answered with an emote is telling me something
oooo
Have to do a lot of adjustments
they do look handy
๐
basically just what you think is your best piece for the month
or your fav one
Ohhh, makes sense!
same here
My brother helped me with it ^^
He's great at art
yeah basically
i did one piece last year december
but then i just stopped drawing
until september of this year
i wasnt interested in art
i only did that one drawing last year because of the sdv christmas event
i feel like the events make people more inclined to draw
but inspiration hasnt hit me yet for this event
events are great for giving u an idea of what you could draw
i still dunno what im drawing for this event either 
im gonna draw shane (obvi)
ikr 
as the grinch
Shane as Grinch sounds cool ;D
I might force myself to begin a sketch for event 2morrow 
im thinking the same
this event is shorter than last time LOL
i havent felt like doing a serious drawing in a while
heres hoping we all manage some art for the event ;D
cheers!
I can't wait to do some SDV portraits after I'm finished with this project
sdv portaits sound fun
I've been ignoring Leah, Alex and Sebastian for too long also Sam
alex is my bae 
im a real artist i swear
Perfection
beautiful
cute
is they pick nose? ;D
booger boi . . .
i need to draw sumn real soon
or else im gonna lose my mind
uuu gots this
would having a sketch help at all? ;D ive got a few sketches you could try colouring if that'd help get you started at all
is that last one an oc?
yep ;D
oh damn
i forgot i haven an oc
i remember spelling Abigail's name wrong in the summer event-
i hsould m ake some emotes of her
https://www.patreon.com/posts/jay-sketch-45278797
^ that one has the csp file attached
idk why but that just came up to me
sameee, i still need to give mine a proper backstory ;w;
u ever just die inside when pple spell Abigail as Abigale tho
i just mispelled it as Abigal
i think u gave me a code for it
I have an account but im not sure how to use it-
yep, looks like i did ;D
It looks like i can post art that i did on there
theres a submit button up top
so you can create the profile for your character
then go edit it to add all the details
and you can put the characters into Groups and have as many characters as you want
yep! you can tag the characters so the art shows up on their pages
I might make a lil comic thing with her
ahhh gotcha, thanks milk!!
I have one but I rarely ever use it
this is my page for Andy ;D
It's Hella confusing
it is a lil confusing at first, I found it helpful to browse through profiles of others and see how they set up their characters' pages
can you put in art that is just a drawing and not of a character?
it does have submit an image
I'll give it a try
nope, gotta have at least one character
yep, its prtty much just a site for creating profiles on your characters to keep track of their backstories
makes sense then
also its almost 10 pm and mom said she will unplug the wifi
idk if she's joking or what-
whack thing to joke about if she is
People do auctions on toyhouse as well
they can sell their characters??
As adoptables
The person that buys it has full ownership of the character
its got a function to be able to change the ownership of characters
never thought of buying a character tbh
doesnt feel right since you didnt put any effort into the design
Some people don't have the skill to draw
So they buy art from other people
https://toyhou.se/~forums/5866.design-marketplace
plenty of adoptables there
A community for collaborative character creation and trading, worldbuilding and roleplay.
It's just like commissioning someone
Just not custom
putting it that way makes sense
o dang, i never rly looked at toyhou.se's forums
but they have a place where you can advertise commissions 
i need 2 look into it more when it isnt 3am
LMAO
You should join that art commission server
It's a good place to advertise
I've gotten most of my comms from there
And it has a lot of helpful tips for getting into comms
art commision server?
;D
been tryna get this finished b4 slep time ๐
i set the lineart layer 2 multiply ;D i like it so far
never tried that before
nae suggested it to me earlier ;D
it makes the lineart colour look different depending on the colour under it
Yeah it's a nice subtle effect
Ooo
lookin nice
Btw does anyone know where to find gesture models with searching forever for one
Thanks 
Ohooo
@indigo sequoia http://www.senshistock.com/sketch/
A timed drawing tool for gesture, practice, and study.
foundddd it!!
Thank you bro
one good tip i got was to start your sketch loose and rough
cause as you refine it it stiffens up
no problem!!!! 
I can publish here the progress of my work?
yup
But the event contest too?
yeah
Progress 5% (The rocks made by hand-drawing)
damn
those are some nice rocks
hehe!
i finally have a sketch going
Looks good!
not me wanting it to be human bones
HAHA
i love it so far btw its gorgeous
Thx!

U can see my "discreet" sign? 
jsjjsjssjs tjats amazing ๐
Hehe! This event is absolutely funny!
oh yes
i need to sign my thing

didn't expect I'd get inspiration from tom and jerry kek
@rich delta hey rio, I'd be honored if you could mention those individuals drawn on the WIP, if you please? ๐
@pastel iris You leveled up to Desperado. That's level 1000! :open_mouth: You have been taken by the server's evil clutches and there is no escape for you. Congrats!
Krobus looks very good
FKLSDF CONGRATS
dang I got the desperado now lol
LOL COLDAZRAEL CONGRATS
thanks lol
LMAO THERES NO ESCAPE FOR YOU
omg gg on lvl up ;o
but still I'm loyal to my dehydrated piss gang


I'm waiting your answer rio 
surprise surprise 
so who are those then? 
i want to assume my farmer and vin's farmer? :0
soz i'm basically going off hairstyles
well done, I'd welcome your farmer and your bf's farmer as my lab rat now 
a;sldkfj i approve!
Omg, azrael congrats!!

Good God
I'm the "trying to find a style"
More or less, I do finish my projects tho
I need help. If I'm doing multiple layers in Aseprite. I can export in gif or not?
im pretty sure you can
but idk i dont use aseprite much
@tropic halo Sadly, no
oh rip
If I make it .ase it doesn't show...
finished shane
time to work on the rest of this
thats an awesome shane sjsjsjs
thank you

Dwarf just noticed that the snow had come 
Dwarf's first snow. 
Yeah yeah. that's gif is very long... he he
i love your style nae
What are the dwarf thinking?
thank youu
yeah, I hate my glasses kek
oh and this is not even the line art, I'm just adding details
bro
thats a clean ass clean up sketch
the G-pen seems interesting but ima do the fine line art in SAI anyway
ah ok
good luck lining
the new update has given me so many new things i have to add to my mods but i was Ready for two of them at least
doesnt this count as spoilers
im sorry to everyone that haas to see this
I- shane- what happened ๐
๐ณ
Hmmmmm...
framessss
Yeah yeah Ik, I want to make it "long"
But long is not boring! I'll make many references to SV!
you could probably even add sound effects in post or sumn
to give it that extra spice
I- 78 frames- thats like ๐ dedication
Sadly I can't put sounds in gifs, sorry :,l
If I put that, only show one frame
And I don't want to make 100+ sounds in 100+ frames ho ho
i dont get what you mean
when you extract the gif you can put it into an editing software like vegas or premiere
yeah its just a suggestion
creepy
Ikr
Looking so nice so far yobiiii
Hehe! Soon is done!
The final (Beta?)
But is not finished yet... We need to make the MIDDLE part
(And of course, that snowman, credits to @fierce ore (Thx!), and the sign is below)
Ahh, I'm really excited to see it finished Yobi! 
What are the dwarf doing?
Yup
To people use Aseprite, I have a error with the transparency rectangle, I want to make a black transparency, but in the gif it looks gray...
cake
He has... such an edgy hair, AND THAT'S ILLEGAL SMH
Literally trying to draw the hair based on references and in all of his references he wear a CAP SMH

improvise adapt overcome
the beauty of it
Ok, here you have it, the final adjustments before starting the real line art!!
might move the characters a bit
haven't drawn in ages bc i've been busy so i doodled a zagreus hadesgame
Noice!
ill never have the patience to clean up that much
im too lazy
i just sketch then go form there
add final details in the lineart
You mean the project I did kek
I want it to be really special so ima spend some time on it
nice, i see hades art the day my brother gets it on his switch using his birthday money
moving to colors I guess 
My hand hurts and I'm not even done 
These two were supposed to be my ocs but i just noticed they HELLA look like seb and sam so ill go with it ๐
everything i touch turns to gay
You say that like it's a bad thing ๐
must be nice
๐ #relateable
Dwarf is creating a snowman
how many frames at this point?
187, but I need more lmao
187 
Yeah, but I like work with long gifs xD
i'm so excited for the finished product 
Thx!
Does anybody have a good way/website/etc for art prompts? I'm better with painting when someone/something gives me a theme. (I guess that's the remnant of art class in school :p)
Oh! The product probably is finished today!
What is this? A cheerful Krobus has appeared without the dwarf noticing. Watch out Krobus!
Can anyone help me out?
I'm colourblind with Tritanopia, and I wanted to make my character have that sort of pallete (I can send example pictures if needed), but I need some values for my farmer
You mean your in game farmer? ๐ฎ
I don't want to make something that looks okay to me but is actually a horrific monstrosity
Yesss
Okay, send me the color palette you want to use and I'll check in game what I can do
Awh, many thanks
Thank for all the spectators, the project is finally finished and posted
finally done with lineart ๐
baby dwarf!! so cute
Awwww
tiny boi, very smol, need to protecc
Iโm working on a Levi model, does anyone know how to fix the clipping on his shoulder/arm? ๐ฌ
coincidence?
yessss i put it as a seb reference, since my farmer is married to seb ๐
i love how you draw hair so much
its so fluffy and soft looking aaaa
also wow azrael's drawing looks amazing as well. that was so fast
can someone guess what software is he using lol
my 1st thought was aseprite but I don't think the UI is like that 
The interfaces
heck, you know how paint.net is lacking feature compared to most softwares 
no wonder this man is a beast
The first time I saw Stardew Valley I believed he made it with Aseprite
But not, is Paint.net, he revealed it in Reddit
(Or forum)
your program doesnt really affect the quality of your work
its all about skill
all you really need for game sprites is a program that supports transparency and a 1px brush
nope, I'd say the difference, software feature does affects the quality of work
and the time taken to work with
sure it'll probably make stuff faster but if you have your skill it doesnt just go away when you use a program that lacks features
and this case especially is different, paint.net is kinda borderline between MSpaint and specialized softwares, that's from what I can see
you really dont need a fancy program
especially for sumn like pixel art
ive seen people make god tier work in ms paint
its just a matter of skill and practice
bad program wont automatically make your work bad
it does not make your work bad, but it makes your work limited in some parts
not really
sure it takes a bit longer to achieve the result you want
especially if youre already used to a certain program
but you can still create fantastic art works in any limited program
i've seen amazing works from MS paint but it's more a flex than anything.
There's no reason for it.
It's so they can say they did it in a lacking program for an extra "Wow!"
At least that's how it seems.
Perhaps i'm entirely incorrect but i don't see any reason to work in one of these programs compared to any free pixelart or art program.
who is that, btw
that is the legend who makes sdv lol
Oh wow
my point is that your program doesnt determine the quality of your art
>> this dude
that's amazing.
not every program can determine the quality of art, I for sure can't make art with my own artstyle in paint.net or even ms paint
it's all depends on your artstyle anyway, that is why some program limits your work in some parts, especially those less featured programs like paint.net and ms paint
if you don't believe me, then try make an art with paint.net or ms. paint with your own artstyle, see the difference
i could
it would just take me longer than normal
especially without stuff like layers in ms
Uhmmm..
if you have the skill you can make great art in any program
I made some art
Do you want to see it..?
i may do that just for fun lol. i've spent too much time recently on polished christmas artworks. i'm burnt out entirely.
"birthday"
jeez. im tired
ooo yes share
Give me a moment..
I'd agree with AR those god tier work with MS paint is probably just a flex
well i mean
no one is gonna choose to work in ms paint consistently if they have access to other stuff
a very effective flex at that. hahaha
i cant remember if i've shared this drawing already
and CA is able to make heck of bucks with a software that is having less feature compared to us schmucks, that's why I said he's a beast
facts. hahaha
didn't sdv take five or six years as well? the program may have contributed to that
I got the drawing ready.. I didn't know what to draw so don't judge it too hard
ofc. all skill levels are welcome
ooo thats nice. Good job
you mean it?
of course. you did good.
thank you
very epic
i made it with the pixilart website, I won't send the link but just saying it
if you want to know
those who chose to work in MS paint consistently i'd say just hobby artists, but here we have someone who works in paint.net consistently and able to have consistent wage out of it 
uh huh
I work on birthday art present
i'm drawing a little comic and like how she is coming out

Guys
Aseprite is in 35% offer!
yeah i got it on sale a while back
even tho i dont use it anymore
its nice to have
Hiiii everyone I just joined the server today and it's so nice seeing everyone's artwork!! I wanted to offer up an old sketch of my favorite farmer River and their frog husband to say hello
welcome and ohhhh what cuties!
Thank you!! Im very excited to be here!
Stardew's kinda become my main hyperfixation this year haha
nice sketch
Thatโs so cute! โจ
just messing around with colouring styles and stuff
not the final since im not even done with the sketch
oh that's lookin wonderful
it is!
@tropic halo just wanted to let you know i agree with you. i use paint tool sai, tried switching to clipstudio and my art quality got worse even though everyone swears by the program. programs might limit what you csn do quickly, but a good program is not what makes a good artist. ive seen some pretty boring work made from top tier programs
yup
exactly what im saying
you can create quality art anywhere
top tier program or not
yeah for real
i think people just become bit of elitist and classist sometimes. and like im not a amazing artist but im confident enough to say my art is not lesser quality because i use a cheap, simplier program. so i vibe with you
also heres my wip
im doing a redraw of a piece i did in 2013
"Messing around" heheh
thank you!! lyell is very fun to draw
and by the way, I hope you're not referring sai as 'cheap' program no? I mean it's clear sai costs more than csp, unless if you're living in japan
i actually got sai as a gift, i was told it was cheaper then photoshop
photoshop is subscription xd
heck, that subscription program horrifies me alot
i may be missing the point, but i feel that your statement might be easily misconstrued
because it seems youre saying, art cant be quality unless the program you use is top teir
i still use ms paint to make my mod art sometimes because the simple interface helps me focus
it may be limiting but i dont think it affects quality. skill affects quality not utensils
then pardon me for my poor choice of words, what I mean is you can also make quality art but it's certainly limited for a software that is not designed for drawing like paint.net does, this is pretty much special case tho, and it all depends on the artist's style on drawing as well
oooh that makes more sense
thank you for clearing that up i was a bit confused tbh
paint.net is too complicated for me
theres too many steps to do one thing????
this wonderful piece for instance, if I were to ask you clown, surely it must be very difficult and even probably impossible for you to draw in this style in paint.net right?
and CA is doing mouse drawing
shiny eyes
damn beast he is
i did that 2016 art via mouse !
anything before midway through this year by me was mouse art
and before 2017, paint.net
before i got tablet i did trackpad art

i think i got a mouse around the same time i got a tablet :D
i did a few trackpad arts in photoshop
was usually small stuff tho
i use a mouse for pixel art a tablet is too swishy xD
but I agree that paint.net is useful tool when it comes about sdv modding
and yes, compared to aseprite, to be honest
i mostly use paint.net to make files smaller now ๐ sme sites wont lemme post me art at full size
first reason is because there's the grid feature and the feature to track the x and y
apparently I don't see that sort of feature in aseprite, I might've missed it so please correct me if I'm wrong
idk i stopped using it after a week
well im off to bed im very sick so i wanna sleep it off
that x and y coordinate tracking feature is not even a thing in sai or CSP, unless again, if I missed it
there's a ruler in csp
control + r
i keep accidentally turning it on when i want to transform something ;;
yes I'm aware of the ruler but I don't know if there's the x and y tracker
lemme check it again
now for my favorite part, try to get the right skin color without color picking because that doesn't work even when u want to do that
I'm not even sure if there's x and y tracker in other art program as well, such as krita, firealpaca, etc
devs probably don't give a shit about it
i think it's just a paint thing
i've never wanted to use a ruler in my paint program tbh
x/y tracker whatever you want to call it
i mostly use rulers for making things line up
paint.net also have that x/y tracker
though it's been so long that I forgot where exactly the location for that lol
before I moved to new PC, I managed to do some minor edits on sdv sprites with paint.net
i use the ruler but ive never had to use that x/y tracker ting
x/y coordinate tracker is only for sdv modding purpose anyway, pretty much not important feature for general artists
Make sure to leave out cookies so L can break in and steal them for Santa :]
Glad to see lots of artists in here ๐
Working on a project. Hope CONCERNEDAPE sees it (ยดโฉ๏ฝกโข แต โข๏ฝกโฉ`)
Wait can I buy you cuz you are technically a food item
Yeah, but I'm priceless 
Pondering putting this on a shirt
ignore how rough it looks
and yes its based off that tumblr shitpost
Would anyone get the shitpost?
no but i like the wacky mushroom
idk how anyone could not take offense from that horrid comment but k
I recall the shit post tho
donโt take offense from the internet lol
You are not the internet, you are a person. Milk was not calling out the internet, they were calling out you because you are being a shitty person
@nocturne linden I think your art is amazing, I donโt get the shitpost but it is really cool looking
what rock have you been living under
okay
thank you for your constructive critiscism
heavy /s
me? confused
Welp, proving my point, Iโm bored with your shit and donโt want to waste any more of my time time
couldve worded that better
im rather dyspraxic and also not a good artist i simply needed something to do
so look at my le funny image
Reminder to keep the chat friendly, please don't argue here. If someone is making you uncomfortable please report them to bouncer
i think your mushroom drawing looks cute, draco!
thank you for the pity
not at all :<
jk thank you its p basic bc my embroidery skills arent epic yet
yeah it really does look nice
critiquing someones art here is okay (if someone asks for it) but saying something looks bad/terrible is just unnecessarily rude
but anyho moving on
no you dont understand hes trying to save me from the harsh evils of the internet
i am now never going to be offended by anything ever again
o its gonna be embroidered? :0
perhaps
you could always improve your artistic skills! we all have to start somewhere. i hope you dont let those kind of comments discourage you
oh nah its fine lol
you underestimate the raw power of my own ego
i can trick my ape brain into thinking it looks good
Dang
Its not about being offended or not drac, its more like you better not listen to an airhead who don't even read the rules around here
leave it, az. the conversation is over
You dont have to tell me because my response is pretty much the end of it, anyways thats nice mushroom drac
LMAO
lmao
Omfg
Hiya,
I don't know if this is allowed, so please do tell me if it's not.
I'm one of the devs for a certain mod that adds 24 new characters to the game. We're looking for people who'd be open to joining the dev team. (dialogue writing, spiriting, portraits, events & more! :D)
Please DM me if you're interested in collaborating!
which mod is this? ridgeside village?
YES :D! @ember sequoia
@nocturne linden that is very cute. Ignore Kappa. If you break their head plate they're a goner. So yeah when it comes to it keep them out of the water. They'll self destruct.
UIGSFJHGFVDH IMMA CRY ITS SO CUTE
a scuffed toshiro histugaya
lil baker girl
That's adorable
Eeee, hoping to learn how to mod in NPCs so this is a lil WIP of one of them
There are a couple others but I don't wanna spam lol
That's so cute
Also rosedominea that's super cute!!
I wanna have one so I can color a farmer
the model looks dope so far โค๏ธ
Yes
I'm really excited to hopefully actually get into learning how modding works now that I'm out of a job again for the time being and not in school, and I figured now's a good time to try and develop some skills ^^ all five goal NPCs have their basic turnarounds finished, but I haven't gotten any further than that, admittedly
My favorite sprite is probably the modified cat (very chunky and handsome)
I wanna try coding that way I can make my own game
And I wanna try a retro style like sdv
It does
I might try animation so like
That could be helpful
The thing is I don't know how to pixel art or code so ๐ถ๐
Just bc I think she's a cute kid,,the current WIP on Warren's portraits too uwu
I think I am 2/3 done with this
Omg
Is it okay if I post the ref sheets for the three characters I wanna make NPCs
They're not originally for SDV, which is why I'm asking
Afaik all creative things can go in the channels, doesn't have to be only SDV.
If you created it, it's creative. ๐
^^^
๐ฅบ thank you so much ๐
does any one knows how old approximately is ||birdie|| (1.5 spoiler warning)
hard to tell if she's around pam's/marnie's or evelyn's 
she looks closer to evelyns age imo
Grandma
Also wrong chat?
the concept of hair graying and aging is still.. confusing oof
She could always dye it?
apparently there are indeed some people with their hair didn't turn grey even though they reached 70s
her dialogue implies she's grandma age yeah, and she has age lines on her face
hair dyeing is unlikely for her I think
Wizard magic maybe lol
||she looks like she's being stranded on ginger island for so long||
||she could be younger and just "weathered" from sun and wind but i'd say 50s at the youngest||
idk, its implied Abigails hair just stays naturally purple now
and Caroline doesnt seem like a character that'd dye her hair considering what she says about Abigail and her hair colour isnt typically a natural colour 
hair in Stardew just dont stick to our boring rules
well I mean this is more about aging hair, abigail and caroline is surely have nothing to do with it because they are not old yet 
ye, but like
if hair colour just works differently in Stardew
presumably its not unreasonable that sme pples hair would just never go gray regardless of how old they got
wouldnt surprise me if he just thought the dark green would Look Cool
kinda does look like tangled vines or seaweed?
Caroline and ||birdie|| both have green hair 
new head canon, ||Caroline is Birdie's daughter||
now speaking about consistency, her sprite is rather different to her portrait as well kek
well that means abigail is a pirate's granddaughter
which makes Sense
Imagine
ARE YOU MY LONG LOST SISTER!?
Hiya,
Still not sure if posting this in the channel is allowed so please tell me if I'm breaking any rules but:
I"m one of the devs for Ridgeside Village. A mod that adds 24(!) characters along with a whole new location.
We're currently looking for creative people who'd like to join our dev team :D. Please DM me for more info! 
maybe try #making-mods-general
both channel works, this channel got some pixel artist roaming around after all
I was more eager to ask on this channel because #making-mods-general usually has people making their own mods ๐
just the thing is, isn't this kinda too much advertising? you just asked yesterday if I remember correctly?
So they might be preoccupied
Yeah, that's why I was worried I was breaking rules 
I don't know if once daily is too much ๐ฆ
that's merely personal point of view, it's all depends on jubinos anyway
any lurking greenies around?
<@&239770080378880001> question here, sorry gotta ping it because I can't spot any of you in any channels atm 
You can always DM bouncer if you have questions for staff ๐

(I don't even know what the question is tbh)
bouncer question is pretty much ping as well, after all this is not private question I'm asking lol so.. no difference surely
this is it
no idea if daily advertising is allowed or not
*for mod project that for sure
there you go obamo
turns out daily advertising mod is allowed
so best of luck looking for your artist, sad that my hands are full atm 
I mean that way lol
@lost kettle is your project barely started and has no progress at all at the moment or..?
Hiya! @pastel iris
It's actually:
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/7286
Hottest mod of the month ;_;7
well now why don't you post the link earlier lmao
I didn't want to spam 
so this is kinda.. another SVE? 
or just new location with new npcs without editing vanilla content
Oh, that's a really good question, haha!
We're aiming for a very "Stardew" feel so we're going for the ConcernedApe style portraits
So we'd be looking for artists that are good with spriting in the same style, I guess! ๐
It's similar to SVE indeed and built to be fully compatible. As far as I know we don't change vanilla content. ๐
good luck with your mod obamoose !
It's actually @celest heath 's mod. He's been working very hard to create the characters, locations & more. I'm just the dialogue guy ๐
frog ....... o:
(it has a tiny cape!!)
Her name is Kiwi 
Exactly! Almost all of the characters visit the town sometimes so it also makes the town a little more lively ๐
kiwi is cutie!

But I just keep reworking RSV portraits hnggg
OOOO, I love those!!
Nervous lad
Can anyone recommend a good software for making videos since I wanna add music to a recorded timelapse
personally i use davinci resolve but for adding music pretty much any program should work
I'm still fussing with him, but I'm wondering if you think the left or right version is better? or neither lol, I'm open to constructive criticism
edgy hair =.=
finally the line art looks better than my sketches
Also Arden I feel like the first version looks better
I wanna try working with line weight a bit more
a canny one
โnoโ
โyour art suxcks >:((โ
When it does not work the first time, just pull the special needs card
too bad that I have sinned smook
I'm god forsaken already because I can't complete any artworks during christmas
wow, no more present for you hmpf
@regal sonnet That's gorgeous! Please post the whole painting when it's done!
Free art? Why don't you draw it yourself? Here's some crayon and scrap piece of paper. You can do it ๐
rage-o-meter
Pls it's Christmas...my needs...my special Christmas needs...
My children will starve if I do not get free art (no colors)
but the kid has to eat the colors!

Ok, I do have to finish this project but holy (took some breaks from time to time tho)
Rookie numbers
I've once had Sai running for 12 says
Days*
To finish some practices I was doing on a reslly big canvas
Ever do somthing and after fully doing it realize you did it in the wrong layer
Almost happened to me
Wdym messing with layers?
drawing on the wrong one kekw
you right
locking them might be the brightest idea
Ah
I thought you meant you don't use em it sumn
Cause I was very confused
But yeah I almost drew on the wrong layer once
I realized immediately tho
Cause the opacity of my sketch is layer was way down so when I drew on it my stroke was pale
Since then I've just started locking everything
Ah I constantly draw on the wrong layers and have learned to live with my fate
I just get too into what I'm doing and am not used to having more than, like, three layers for things (one for just a regular ol' off white background I doodle on, one for lines, one for colors), and any more than that and I'm in trouble
How do people not realize when they're doing lineart on the sketch layer tho
Vibing
Not paying enough attention
Terminal silly disease
My sketch layers when I use them are the same opacity (full) as other layers, and I'm just not super good at paying attention lol
huh
hand goes brrr but I am so close to finish the line art
the arm thats holding the knife (guy on the right) is a bit wonky
but lineart is epic
like this?
set your arm in that position
i think it's the other hand, smookie! if you could, i think it would look better if you make it look more sideview
sweating intensifies
i was referring to the other fist, heh (it looks more front facing than sideview, which i think is kind of awkward irl?)
good luck smookie!! it's looking really great so far 

I am still trying to understand heh
I will do a couple of edits
It doesn't have to be perfect, I just want it to look good enough
looks good enough for me 
I thought it looked nice

it looks fine!! dw about it 
i see it too
best way is to just reference your own hands and such
LOVE IT
aaand timelapse
one day ill get the csp timelapse thing to work
you know
i read that as jkaindudaorsy
and it made no sense to be
til i saw it said january kiddos
time to attempt lineart on my sketch

the time lapse is so neat :0 it looks great!!

The current WIP on Ellie's portraits! :> feeling better about how they're looking now
Indeed, the emotions are all nice!
great job smookie, guy on the left looks especially nice, the hair and face, and the lineart is so nice
i really want to show a super realistic drawing i did of my best friend for christmas, but i don't want to share his face online
so i cant
but i can do realistic portraits now, so thats fun
nice!!
and thank you, it is a drawing of me and another artist, it will be a surprise for our B-days 
4 Jan, they're on 10 Jan, pretty close kek
I just wanted to do this because they're cool
Wip for the contestโ any feedback or criticism is appreciated

It all looks really good!!

I didn't draw it myself, it's just a recolor, so gonna throw it here instead of #creative
Original picture is from the game Cultist Simulator, all rights go to Weather Factory, etc. etc.
your lines are so smooth omg
i love sam's expression here
i think all it needs is just a little warp/tilt towards the right! his right eye is lookin -chef's kiss-
oh also: my tablet just fully died while drawing my friend's murder girl OC (confirming that she's powerful enough to kill in the multiverse), which means after im done screaming into the void I gotta start hunting for a new one! Does anyone have any recommendations under $400? I've been using a huion160 pro v2 for about 2 years now
lmao here's the murder girl in question for anyone interested (i was this close to finishing her lines too but here we are)
the one im getting i the xp pen 15.6
its 399 last i checked
same one i was boutta suggest too
nice
if you wait a couple months you could get it on the valentines sale, for 300
whether or not its worth waiting that long for, idk
๐ thats so tempting but also there's so much i gotta work on ;;-;;
....tho i could just get csp for my phone? but like eh
imma wait til i get my next paycheck this friday and evaluate lmao
thank you both though!!! i really appreciate the suggestions <3
im between the xp 15.6 and the medium wacom intuos pro since i like the Big Space
yeah i want a big space too
especially since my current tablet is really small
i want a nice upgrade
intuos pro is good but imo xp pen > intuos because s c r e e n lmao
only con (if you can call it that) is that it takes up half of my damn desk because theres another 2 inch band around the edge of the screen so it ends up being massive
also the screen needs to be color calibrated out of the box
the color is wack asf because the red value is up there and i still dont have mine fixed entirely, i got frustrated trying to fix it and i just adjust the hue on my pc when i finish a drawing, or i pick a palette beforehand
i really should fix that
laziness 100

She has a tiny Junimo butt! (Credit: @celest heath )
a couple of more edits, these shall be the flat colors wew
it looks promising so far 
ah lol, forgot about that whistle thingy in my mouth kek
Sure! Iโm a bit too into the process of painting to really redo much at this point, but any crit I can carry over into the next one is always appreciated!
Getting SUPER excited again, so these are everything I have so far on working on WIPs!! (plus the love portrait for Cyril)
There's room for improvement, but I've been working really hard on them and I'm really excited to be able to keep working and get more done
