Cries in those 9 years I spent drawing
An art style is just how you remember how to draw certain things
Welp I gotta throw that in the trash bin
Wise words
art style changes a lot as you learn and improve
I wouldn't call it wise, its just common knowledge lol
Wise words x2 ,, I’ll be using these tips
if you see my first peices here youll see how my drawings changed
Hejdndnksndd
but trying hard to stick to a specific style will hold yo back a lot
same but in like 2 months
dont be afraid to change once you learn more about the basices
I do have a bit time rn I could doodle
2 months ago, my art looked very different
Screams in 2015 drawings
I don’t have time to study for anything other then school, my friend told me to study too
I’ve only really been drawing loads for the past few months
I’m not a fast learner
Ive been drawing seriously (somewhat) since may 2020. Everything besides school stuff for realism is self taught 😼👌
So I didn't study barely anything
And I don’t think art is for me ngl
by studies i mean
i just find a picture i like then try to copy it
AaaAAa no I had bad times with that
It can be if you want it to be. You just need to have a positive mindset 
The thing you posted in creative looked good.
Who?
I don’t have a positive mindset ,, I always look at the bad sides of things
I’ve been told to stop that a lot
well
that wont help you improve
Midori
Same. But I just kept going lol
Bad habits I guess,, I am trying to fix it 
same with getting commissions
buyers dont like when artists have negative attitudes towards their own art
Kinda hard when your dad keeps on comparing you to ur 8 year old brother

just stop caring
Cause if you say "Yeah this one Commission I did, I hated the end result." Then the person who bought that commission will feel less of it
I have been commissioned a few times and I’m proud of those art pieces since I could take my time with those
nice
i mean
if you go to buy a car and the dealer is just tlaking about how shitty he thinks the car is no one is gonna want to buy that car
its the same with art
I’d buy it
Mindset 😼
As long as I think the cars of I’m fine with it
Neofnekskjd I swear I’m trying to stop that

brb someone in another server might be stealing art, I gotta double check
Oh god you get them good
I have time rn to doodle or well practice so ima go do that
most self respecting buyers dont think like that
theyre not gonna spend their money on something thats talked about in a negative way
have fun
A commission im doing for a rp im in
ah ok
nice
:333 pls post more updates
i want to sit under my own vine
and fig tree
a moment alone in the shade
at home in this nation we made
poetic
one last time
i don't want to talk about how long it took me to do this fucking gun
i am very happy with him tho
hot damn
here's og sketch so you can see all i changed
thank u arcane
it's coloring time, i think the hardest part was getting the hand and gun right
smooth sailing now
DAMMIT just saw a huge mistake
ok
i got this
hold on
it was worth it
its so sexy

I agree tho 😳👉👈
yall keep me goin
spicy
this reminds me i need to go make osme art
some*
of something
idk of what
but i need to draw
I should be drawing but instead I'm working on finding headcanon voice claims for some ocs
Ive found 6 I think so far
yesss y'all should and headcanons sound fun!
ok does the right arm look correct to you
i was like "he doesn't have an ELBOW" but i'm looking at the angle of the gauntlet and i'm not sure if it makes sense or not
(i am using refs but
i don't have the perfect one for how i have his arm)
Yeah, it looks fine 👁👌
I didn't notice that he might possibly not have an elbow til you said that lol
But even then he has a fine elbow
i will try to add a bit more of his arm which hopefully makes it look better
yeah, sounds like a good idea 
the gauntlets are also one of my biggest adversaries...
ughhhhhhhhhhhh i'm gonna have to redraw his whole arm
i thought i was done
😭
i can't believe i didn't notice
😔😔😔
flAAAAAAAAAAAAAts
this is so cool!!! what program do you use to draw?
thanks! i use clip studio paint
LOVELY
very neato
do you use a tablet w/ pc or like ipad?
ahh ok. thank u! 
np np
i had cheaper tablets for a decade if not just about a decade and saved up to get me a nice cintiq
i've really enjoyed it
yoo same, my dad had a wacom bamboo tablet laying around and i used it for awhile before i got my ipad
THAT IS AWEEEESOME WTH
AAAAAA I LOVE THE COLOURS
haha. it was a time at first figuring out hand/eye coordination though 😂😂
oh yeah big mood
👌
which one did you get?
i have my eyes on the 24 inch pro with the 4k screen
but im literally so poor id have to sell a kidney
or both of em
and live my life drawing on dialysis
no way in hell i was gonna get the 1.2k one
theyre so expensive im cryin
ikr
i use a little lap desk for mine which i use for my laptop too
wtf, so expensive...might as well just buy an ipad then
the pens r nice
lmao no
id rather spend 1000 on a tablet than on the whole ipad + apple pencil + procreate setup
not my vibe at all
procreate seems hella limited
ive heard you only get a certain number of layers
huh, diff strokes for diff folks... i’m vibing with that exact setup lol
i think ipads are good for general use but i wouldnt get it purely for art personally
yeah it’s like 200+ something layers max
the only thing is no vector work. thanks!
yeah its just what works for you
oh that sucks ):
i find the pc and tablet setup way beter
especially with the type of art i do
ahh understandable. maybe my hand eye coord is just bad lmao
tablets have screen
the one i had was no screen, so i had to keep looking at the computer and not my hand
Layers are limited depending on how big your canvas is and how old your ipad is. If you have a really old ipad + a huge canvas then your layers would probably be quite limited, yeah
for performance reasons
thats how i currently work
generally what size canvas? just curious
i use 7000 x 6000 some times
and sometimes i use 3500 x 3500
depends on what im doing
cool, i would’ve stuck with it longer but i needed my ipad for school work too :9
You could very easily work around it but you already have a pretty nice setup from what I know nae?
ahh yeah that’s p big. my canvases (screen size) are ~2000x2000
haha i guess as long as it can make art, it works! 
i work on bigger canvases for my commissions
and i might eventually switch to photoshop for my paintings
so idk yet
maybe if the ipad version of csp wasnt subscriptions based id think about getting one
cause csp would be perfect for me there
to just use on the go
lol i want to give photoshop a try but it seemed a little overwhelming 
my canvas sizes are way smaller but i am getting used to drawing at 50% and doing detail at 100%
ive gotten used to csp so photoshop comes easy
so maybe i wil move on to even bigger canvases....
i work pretty zoomed out as well
but ive started using that extra window function csp has
then i drag this window to my second monitor
so i can see everything i do zoomed out so i can know if im working ok
especially since my laptop has a bit of a diff color
every stroke
you make appears there
i only found out about it recently
i saw someone do it in a sai speedpaint and i looked into it immediately
another thing i did was make my watermark into a brush
so instead of copy pasting it everytime i can just grab the brush and stamp
i love making my life easier
I really hate CSP on the ipad. For some reason it feels like a completely different app than the pc version.
If I could switch back to a drawing tablet, I might. But def not a screened one... I think that's what I hated about my old one so much.
oh
i didnt know csp for the ipad was so different
even more reason why its not for me ig
ill stick to pc setup for now
would be cool to be able to draw on the go tho
I have tried CSP on my phone and it looks so different compared to the pc version
rip

im surprisingly more comfortable using a graphics tablet than a screen one
but im gonna upgrade eventually and im gonna force myself to get used to it
csp expires???
nope its just on mobile and touch pad the free version only allows 1 hour per day to use it
ojhhhhhh
i could never work in csp if it was limited
Drew some of my pal's ocs might ask anyone to hand me some your ocs lol
Bc I am literally bored asf PAHAHAHAH
you asked for a couple, so here's a few
here's my boy tetsuo
maggie might be more your speed.... wow i really need to draw her again....
this art is sooooo old
Drawing your own OC again...
Why I don't do it already

I might use nae's reference to draw my baby again
this art is also like 2 or 3 years old and i still like it, i need to learn how to draw him better (my oc turin)
ok i'm done looking thru my ocs i'll just feel so guilty not drawing any of them in ages
awwwww very cute smookie
Burn baby burn!!!
I haven't even drew a pet snek but nae did it anyway!!!
I'm such a bad father

February passed like a fart and I did nothing almost
disco inferno
this isnt even complete 😩 but here ya go
like a fart, i love it
looks good so far!
omggg, this looks rlly cool!! lemme get my oc real quick 
My OC Naono! Drawn by one of my best friends, i have yet to draw her myself

how does one fill up their sketchbook? i literally only have a page full and its just my oc above me
Just draw whatever comes to mind and make a page of it
Like if you wanted to draw mayor lewis
Draw him in the centre, and around it draw stuff like his purple shorts and ||golden statue||
i want my sketchbook to look neat tbh 
Oh 😂 Fair enough
what does ur sketchbook look like 
makes sense, i do the same but my dad bought me a sketchbook and like, i want to make use of it
because dad used money on it
its not supposed to be neat tho
its about sketching and practicing and just doodling whatever comes to mind
only people ive ever seen with neat sketchbooks are the ones that do youtube
I have a sketch book but I never use it because I just like to just doodle not sketch most of the time
i dont have a sketch book
im too lazy and privileged for traditional art
idk how id function without my lasso tool and undo
Guys, I need your opinion on something. I wanna paint a gift for ConcernedApe to celebrate the 5th game anniversary (yes, I know I´m late lol). Do you think I can DM him here on Discord once it´s gonna be finished, so I can show it to him? Or will that be inappropriate
It´s just gonna be a portrait of him surrounded by junimos and other game stuff
I already emailed him once, offering to translate the game into czech, to which he replied. I thinkit´s okay, but I just wanna make sure
true true, but imma try and make it look neat by coloring every single thing in it

youre gonna have to go through a lot of ugly sketchbooks before you start making pretty stuff
80% of your art journey will be (or should be) ugly practice sketches
!!!!
i feel like, i should make one of the sketchbooks i have to be used for practicing anatomy, hands and etc. while the other one i show to others 
Most of the drawings go in my big portfolio since the sketchbooks pages are detachable
because one of my other sketchbooks is already pretty ugly from the amount of drawings i have in it 
Ooo, I have this folder where i put all my artworks categorized by years and then the months
helps when im looking at my progress
Mhm
yeah true true, i just kinda have the tendency to try and make everything look nice 
My brother has like 8 portfolios lmao
me who deleted all my art pieces 
I haven't even filled half of it
noooo nae
eh
most of em were crappy anyways
say that to my art sob
saying stuff like that breeds delusional artists
Ok... sometimes
gonna make a lot of shitty stuff before you start making actually good art
how long have u been drawing nae?
oooo looking good so far
Thank you! His nose is d i f f i c u l t
been drawing seriously since september last year
but drawing in general
sicne i was a child
arts and crafts classes and such
He has very sharp features 
but i realy only started basics and such last year
Ooo
i wanna do a lil drawy draw but idk what to draw
Draw something you don’t usually draw
:O sneks
SNEKS SNEKS SNEKS
I have 3 pet sneks. They´re perfect. Sneks are always the right answer
starting to look more like him
woah looks gooddd
thank youuuu
looks good
oo niiiiice
going to colour in fuyuhiko and Hiyoko some time in the far future
who's wearing who?
you know too much
My first stardew valley oc fanart after like years of not playing 
this is so cute!! is this modeled after your farmer?
Yes! I had fun with the costumizations I couldn't believe there's a skirt feature now *0 *
haha. i love that there’s diff skirt lengths but i can have my farmer wear pants too :)
I can’t draw leg.
sketch
YOOO THATS SO COOL
i really like the background !!

thats so cool
This is really damn cool.
Does this pose look natural? What can I improve?
looks good so far! i might shift their left knee forward a bit?
Hmmm I see what you mean, thanks!
np! can’t wait to see your final drawing:)
im kinda late but i'd make the right knee a bit more rounded and make the left leg face forward a bit more
Noted, thank you for the input!
💖
how does one color and/or shade the sun
google sun
the perspective of the body is kinda wonky
the right leg (our right) is facing sideways while the part of the thigh closest to the pelvis indicates that its forward facing
the left leg is also no straight
the part where the arm cuts is bent and there is no join there
when working on poses ignore the overlapping limbs and work on them individually
the right arm is also a lot thinner than the left one and the position of them is a bit unnatural
I would probably move the head down a little bit
i was kinda overlooking the head cause i just assumed it was a place holder
alone with the hands and the feet
Wow, thank you so much for the detailed response! This is super helpful, I'll try my best. Thank you!! 💖
np
i think the leg on the right from our perspective (so it's left leg) is a bit funny, might needa work on it a lil bit!
Would anyone be interested in animal crossing x stardew valley art?
Yes!
that would be super cute
I'm trying to make a new oc but I have no inspiration for them and I was wondering if anyone has anything, like a phrase, creature, picture, or website I can use I'd really appreatiate it
i mean theres a shitton of websites where you uhh, get a description and stuff!! lemme grab smthing rq
https://www.character-generator.org.uk/profile/ try some of these! :> they have a lot more generators if you need more ideas - even one that gives longer results (or shorter, your choice) than this one does
@past karma 
Thank you so much! I've had a really bad lack of insperation despite having finally getting the motivation to draw again
Hey I’m debating making a stardew chicken plush as part of a birthday gift for my partner. The problem is my fabric selection... kind of sucks lol
I can’t find anything that’s like, beige that’s textured appropriately so I wonder if I’m gonna have to compromise. Do you guys think I should go with this white minky fabric or a yellow ish (it’s a bit more yellow than the picture makes it look) faux fur?
faux fur
ofc 
yea im in for the last one too
Gdi it's so good Jade!
AHHH
thank uuuu 
that looks so good jade!!!
i'm really happy with his pants

I'm not lurking I swear
LOL
It's definitely not like I was waiting for Jade to post her wip
even though it hasnt loaded
OMG IM SURE ITS SO SEXY
ah finally loaded
and can confirm
very sexy
LOL
I can't wait for nae to be piss gang again
i talked about this in another discord but he somehow makes having like 3 accent colors work
i am in love with his outfit, i've had so much fun coloring this
i have to finish up the gold, draw his 2 symbols, then figure out a background and he's donezo
never
i might stay this blue purple hybrid forever
the details in the folds
Jade your talent makes me silently sob I love that piece so incredibly much, your shading is gorgeous!
muah
thank u nae i had so much fun with that
THANK U GD
Thank you rase, the jade-I council and Arcane for the help btw!
np, unless the other material is much softer than the fur or the fur is really unpleasant to touch, then definitely go with the fur
np pls post wips of your chicken, it sounds like a really fun project 
i'm sure your partner will love it
I’ll absolutely make sure to post some wips! Really hoping they’ll like it lol
i'm sure they will!
my layers are still a hot mess but i named many of the layers this time.... in ur honor nae....
i probably don't need to have separate layers for colors but i'm paranoid so i tend to anyway
I dont wanna put this into the other art place but I wanna show this off because I love it so far
aw I'm loving it!!!
I found my old high school art book while rummaging through my old boxes
made may sprites to replace Jaz for a mod I'm working on
Joining for my friend's dtiys and yeah here's a wip of it lol
It was his Size Shifter OC and I made it a little bit thicc and did the hair a little bit wonky aaaaa
Theres too much art in #art-gallery to keep up with 
I hope I get featured soon
well leah was backed up a bit tbf
I made a bat boi
looks cute
My drawing tablet arrived yesterday, and im today the whole day at home... Time to test it :)
oo poggers
nice!
should i stream showing how i make these
They look really cool! Especially the stars and sky. Up to you really
like would u guys show up
WIP of best girl Wanda 🥺
Yup! Looks good so far
Thanks 😄
i am so proud of you
naming layers gang
i could never
i just do clumps
strands stress me out
I’ve found a system that works for me and looks aesthetically pleasing to my eyes but it’s just hell on my wrists 😂 If sai had a symmetry tool it’d be my best friend
then just copy and paste it
i hate resizing my canvas because it means i have to do math and i can't to math all i know is that i want my canvas 128 pixels bigger please
add 64 to the length and 64 to the width
That's more than 128 pixels bigger
how so
im confused
she said she wanted to add 128 pixels to her peice
64 pixels on top
and 64 pixels on the side
thats 128 in total
i have no idea how it works but i think ur right nae
quick mafs 
just like
use a caalculator
I understand, I thought you meant add it the dimensions, not the actual shape 😂
You're right
i do mean add it to the dimensions tho-
Ok Idek
No idea
Tiny update I’m still suffering but at least hair is done now 👁️
very nice
I mean if u have the specs to make it bigger yea
i dont even pay attention to the numbers much
Same
i just start with 3500 x 3500
id usually just use the crop tool and resize like that 
then make it bigger as i please
My main issue is getting a canvas thats big enough for me to draw on that doesn’t make my computer a frying pan, cus i draw kinda big
yeah i just adjust it by this normally
but if im doing something where i need to be specific i type the numbers
what program do u use and how much ram do u have?
if u guys could upvote for those who dont know im a starving artist and im trying to sell some art
might wanna invest in bigger ram
i dont think self promo is allowed here
oh ok

I use sai and i have 4gb LOL I’ve figured it out now but in the past it was difficult, i plan on building a pc soon-ish but i have a laptop atm
might wanna try posting in r/artcomms, r/hungryartists, r/dnd etc veni
and i went up to canvases as big as 7000 x 7000
yeah! sai should be pretty lightt
sai is fairly light weight
It does work well yeah i just have to be cautious of the canvas size
photoshop is just stinky, i work on 2k and it still lags a lot >:(
but its so useful:'
i mainly stick to csp tho
yeah! the brushes and adjustment layers r so nice
Oh oof i tried photoshop once and no bueno, I bought csp as well only to find it’s v slow on my laptop 😭
if u can afford it, look into getting bigger ram maybe? 4gb is tiny ;3;
doesnt lag on crappy computers
you have the entire assets store at your disposal
incredibly customizable
and lots of tools
There’s a modeling program as well
u had me at doesnt lag on crap computers 
yeah
and 3d assets
and you can also import all the ps brushes into csp
so overall i prefer csp
but ps is really nice for painting and blending
It goes on sale a lot for 50% off as well and it’s a one time purchase if you have windows

but csp works just as well so 🤷🏾♂️
yeah
so its only $25
i will consider 
but normally its $$50
hmgggg
There’s also a trial!
that emote-
youre in tina's server
Dam nae rly said “this u?”
they rly did LOL
yeah!! i think she made it (?) not too sure but its a whole ass mood
yeah
im 87% sure she was the one that added the motion blur and stuff

Anyhoe idk if I wanna try painting an original piece or doing a study
do u have ideas already for the original piece? :o
do tht firsttt
Yeah I probably should
trying to shade ahhh
you should look into hue shifting for picking colours
cause theres blood under skin
adding a lil pink to it helps
colours like that add more vibrancy and life to your pieces
i suck at coloring lmao. any background color suggestions?
I think the yellow works well. You could try a pale purple or blue though?
good idea. gimme a sec
i like the blue!
Yeah definitely better than purple
thanks for the suggestion!

That could look seriously cool
yeah hopefully ill be able to render it well
I love it so fa
no idea where i wanna start tho
maybe ill go fishes
water
lilypads
rocks
then cat
Kitty
thank you
Don’t thank me I’m just stating facts
its really just blocks of colour rn
so its not cool yet
I still love it
I’m sure it’ll turn out amazing
hopefully
ive been trying to get used to working without a sketch as of late
i just block in the skeleton with colours then i start with the rendering
mostly just for objects ands tuff tho
i want to practice that with characters
guys can i get an opinion please 
sure
lets just take a second to appreciate my watermark brush
i made my watermark into a brush tip
which looks better bc i want to do more of these and while i like the coloured hair lines i feel like the rest of the lines look weird
awesome i will have to see if i can try that 😳
i like the top one more
it has more depth
when youre working with coloured lines i suggest just colouring the inside liens
and also add more contrast between the lines and the thing your elining
ok ,thank you 
it's just a doodle for a D&D character so it's not perfect but i might do some more
ive never played dnd
Dnd is fun!
I haven’t worked much more on this since I started flats but it’s coming along nicely
still very messy and very wip but getting somewhere at least
I played dnd with my friends like 1 time
unamed layers-
how come youre still using sai 1 tho?
sai 2 is way more optimized
and it supports transparency
I name them sometimes but I’m lazy 😭 and I remember which ones they are bc I never use a lot of layers anyway
And I’m just pretty content w sai 1, im not a super serious artist or anything i just draw for fun and sai 1 does what i need it to do — i do have sai 2 but i just haven’t gotten around to using it
oh ok
life of an artist
puref masterrace
whats that?
me rn
yeah! it consolidates all ur ref into a window where u can move things around etc
its like a super light version of ps but just for pictures
i see i see
ill look into it
i doubt my pc will be able to handle multiple programs
look dis, how convenient
oo
oh i think its really light, u should be fine :o
ahhh i c i c
lets see how this goes
ignore my ass wifi
perks of living on an island in the middle of nowhere
my brain is goldfish brain so if all my ref isnt directly visible i just dont use them 
omg MOOD LOL
1mb/s?? who dat
we only know 14KB 
hell yeah
ill test it out in 4 years when its done downloading

that is very true
Ooo, thank you nae!!
Np
i might actually need to use pureref
do eeeet, its pretty goodd
u can have it be in glass mode too so theres no bg behind ur ref imagess
ooh nae returned
hope you're doing better now
hey, kinda a srs topic but what do yall think of the crypto art situation?
for those who havent heard yet, its bitcoin type deal but using art as currency sort of and it generates a MASSIVE carbon footprint and it makes me so angry that people are still participating in this despite knowing the huge environmental effects

wait like irl art?
Or like digital art?
aight brb
(gonna read)
look at the numbers on that, it makes me so angry that people are doing it just because its profitable and not thinking of the long term consequences
1 eth=electricity for 4 days :/
ok I'm not reading that whole article (too long) 
but reading a few paragraphs makes me very concerned already
like 
yeahh 

lets be angy 3 gether >:((
:[[[[[
Progress
Stomach needs a repaint
Im very tired.
I'm just appreciating what appears to be proficiency at drawing hands, especially at weird angles like that.
Hey
Im bad at pixel art in some ways
How do I make the axe look like its leaning more towards the camera?
I'd think you'd take the more general principles of foreshortening and apply it to pixel art.
I can't say that there's any advice in this regard specific to pixel art, if that's what you're asking.
thank youu
did two fishes
i have
a lot more to do
then i can start working on painting the water
good job!!
bingus
??
@hollow thorn Probably the image is grey because .png or not?
Ah yep
UM THIS IS LOOKING AMAZING
thank youuu
before
after
i really need to work on the perspective of those lily pads

proper shading could help with that
Oh god more art gallery spam~ I cannot keep up help there’s so much good work
i wish the posts in art gallery had a link to jump to the original post in #creative cuz sometimes people post an album or something
This is really sloppy but I sketched out a rough idea of smth for my friend
cool
does my shading look good?? @tropic halo i tried improving off of ur version 
i need to define the nose more but 
oooo that shading is really good!

INCREDIBLE
I COULD NEVER
I BELIVE IN U
The talent here is so amazing omfg 😩
ur amazing 


Ur amazing too 

Thats a ton of improvement, I would try to maybe increase the contrast of the neck and jaw
what do you guys think of this song, it's for a mod i'm working on for stardew valley
I know it's a odd thing to ask but how does the music make you feel? I'm trying to go for heartfelt feeling I guess, sad but happy for the future kind of feeling.
its kinda action-ey,like in a big city
really cool song though, definitely could fit within the vanilla feel
thanks for the input 👍 Music is my favorite part of modding, I'm not great at mapping yet but getting there in time
EUIHEIUE YAYAY

Noice
looks cool
ok then
i havent started rendering them
its just the shape and the colour for now
yeah that looks nice
you should try making the shading un the neck a lot darker tho
oooohh
so it shows that the head of casting a shadow
send it when ur finish
lmao
makes sense 
thankk u very much nae!! 

Update on my Wanda drawing, I changed a few things but I’m currently working on flats which is tedious 😭
I haven’t worked on it anymore since yesterday but soon
how do you normally go about shading hair?
Typically I don’t, flat color is usually all I do for everything because i cba lol
oh ok
handsome
cool!!
I promise it won't take... another month to color
feedback? (its a wip)

very pretty
sounds like it fits that vibe pretty well
i like it
omg thats lovely
i am
about to draw john andré
and i have no regrets
stardew valley customization is such a great tool for character design when I get stuck 
nice
upd
Looks good!
That's really cute!
i love these!!!!@@
amazing caricaturey sketches 
the morris is terrifyingly amazing
@reef estuary so I haven't started the animatic yet but I got character design 😳
(might edit it later idk)
Ive been trying to use wider body types a bit more to get more comfortable with drawing them so I thought this was a decent opportunity to use one :)
I was gonna say I love the design because it strays from typical characters you see online!
The hair is my favorite part
Yeah :))))
also thanks lol
same 😳❗❗❗
That's exactly what I was going for

np and thanks :D
so I'm working on sewing a stardew chicken plush as a gift and I'm wondering what's a good size to make it... I'm wondering if trying to scale the pattern to the size of an actual chicken is a good idea or if that'd be too obnoxious size wise lmao
also what doesnt help is that when I go to look up measurements of chickens I unsurprisingly get stuff about more or less the edible aspect of a chicken which is not what I want lmao
i think any size would be cute!! real chickens are actually fairly big (id guess slightly smaller than avg house cat)
but huge plushies are adorable if you’re able to make them, but i think they’d be more difficult to make/get proportions right
that helps things out a bit honestly, I think I had printed out the pattern a bit too small even though it looked kinda big at first lol
ahhh lol, well gl on your project!! pls share it when you’re done 🥺
wip on sketch 👀👀👀
💎💎💎
update: trying to work on this thing is increasingly difficult when I have a cat practically bouncing off the walls in my room

and another one
I made another stardew valley portrait for someone 😄
I feel like I've met him 
let me guess, he's called Dave, Steve, John or Alan
probably dave but that looks so cool
he feels like a dave/steve it guy
yh
I feel like John would fit for him but his user name is sponge xD
drew this after reading some puyo puyo dialogue
Here’s another one I never finished idk if I will lmao
cool
Very short wip
The next background I need to make is the outside of an arcade but idk what vibe to go for
by me (ArtsyCat) hi
**h e y . **
greetings
how are you ...
I'll ask if I can get some cause I'm broke atm and my mom is the one paying lol
also bubblegum does sound kinda good so 

Meh, I didn't want to look up synonyms for Nexus in case I had to redo the text, so Dimension Mods it was.
2
yeah, 2
dyu lot think it looks better that i removed those 2 freckles that were closest to the mouth?
and cheers for the criticism 
Ive returned. But they didn't have bubblegum there 
But I did get a sweet plant
I name him Jimmy
I like Jimmy @fossil helm
I've always wanted to name a pet plant
But my name would be Q
jimmy
spicy
jimmy is gud
he likes to sit :cowboy: :thumbsup:
is that pot big enough for Jimmy?
I'll move him to a new one soon lol

The store just puts the plants in the smallest pots possible to save shelf space
😔
But I'll get him a new one soon 😼
I dunno but I should ask yall, does an intimate moment between 2 people is considered nsfw or nah? Like a girl topping a boy lol
If it was considered, I should crop, focusing to the girl q.q
I say no (personally, idk about others opinions) unless their like naked or wearing really suggestive clothing in the drawing
They kinda wear pjs but yeah, I feel the gal is wearing her brasierre so oof
oof moment
It's usually okay I think to post things like people wearing only their underwear (usually spoiled), but yeah, when you factor in their pose and what they're doing, it gets a bit iffy, and we don't see stuff like what you're describing very often.
Could always run it by Bouncer first.
depends on clothing and how "intimate" you're drawing
if anything you can always ask a junimo in private first!
i'd say jade is a good person to go to, she's sweet and fair
fair as in her judgement and her face, i'm not tryna be smooth but i think i'm pretty smooth 😎
damn
her head is huge
a type of character in one of my stories that i haven't done in ages
they are angels, benevolent soul collectors
i like it a lot
thank u guuuyysssss i don't show my creepier art here much but that's only because i haven't done it in a while 😓 but it's like kind of extremely my aesthetic
i like the idea of angels appearing just as otherworldly or ominous as demons
i might color her since i really like how she turned out
me too!!!! i love that
all of my angels in this story look ominous, those are my fave kinds


Ohhh that’s really cool, I’d love to see the story as well!
aw thanks!! id have to write it first hahahah
the story is basically a "rapture" scenario where every adult disappears while only children and teens remain, and there is a huge disease that turns kids into zombies or kills them entirely, theres lots of monsters and stuff
I’m down to reading this
the main character is a religious girl who is accompanied by an older boy and they are trying to figure out how to stop the spread of the disease
and etc symbolism classic challenging of faith and horror all that good stuff
thanks! and ill do my best, ive never colored them before but itll be fun fogurimg out what to do
i have an art project that i dont wanna do woo
F
oh cool that sounds fantastic!
I never knew you were so into horror
thank u, i kove horror I've just been in a fan art mode for some years now 😭
i love the angel's design 
Oh i like the art jade
I imagine the upcoming bobf and other boba media won't help with that :p
I drew my boyfriend in a gown.
that's so cute!!
Aww, that's really great!
thats adorable!!
i was hoping to have this done by now, but i havent gotten to work on it very much lately so wip:
well it took a few days to actually get around to it but I finally got the pattern for the chicken plush cut out
I feel the wonkiest part when it comes to me making a plush is the tracing out shapes on fabric
ohh boy with how I scaled this I'll have just enough fabric lol
I hope my cat knows how difficult of a job he's making this become lol
THAT LOOKS

her hair seems boring to me, any suggestions on hairstyles?
panda buns are cute
i think the gint bangs kinda restrict it if that makes sense? like some hairstyles wouldn't look as good with the amount of loose hair down there
probably stick with something loose tho
Oooo, ill try drawing that, but like Imma be erasing the whole hair style I have right now so if u have any other suggestions 
Loving the shading BG! it looks so good
I would personally add a bit of hanging strands of hair in the front, and you could use the darker colour to help the strands of hair in the hair standout, by that I mean draw lines with a darker colour than the base hair colour and draw the lines with the flow with the hair
Ooo
ill do that!
thank u micko 
i wanted to do that but then i feel like the hairstyle is a bit too boring tbh ;w;
and im noting down that i should use a contrasting color to the hair shading 
loose strands might work 
what color would you suggest for the dark pockets?
Im thinking a dark purple tbh 
ah so base color 
how do i pin my art
lemme yoink that real quick nae
wha- where did nae go?
a quick self indulgent sketch with hayley lol 
we be in dms 
ty 

this is so cute!!!

Thank you so much! 
ofc!

gddd, ur art gives me energy to stop procrastinating 
I made an oc for a lesser known franchise and was wondering if anyone would like to learn more about her 👉 👈
In particular, it's for this game centered around horses and riding horses with a side dish of magic. It's called Star Stable
I would like to learn more about her! 
Could I dm then? I understand this server isn't for star Stable so I don't want to dump lotsa info here
it depends on u!
this is creative discussion so its giving info on a character u made 
Holy shit I used to be obsessed with SSO for so many years
If we’re talking about the same star stable, the video game
we are in dms and yup! thats what RandomFlower is talking about 
attempting to do one of my silly little embroidery designs but its hard and my brain hurtds
this is what a lack of fine motor skills does to a motherfucker 😈
I’m trying to actually make my own shit bc it doesn’t feel like my embroidery when I trace or really heavily reference something but I also don’t really know to draw
I hate how the torso shoulder part looks so here have a lip balm
||same||
but it looks promising so far
very spicy
flat chested with like x marks for tits lol so no censors
is artistic nudity allowed in this server
in the rules part it says yeah but only if not sexualized
and no details
i wouldnt even call it nudity i was just bothered by how it was shaped
its meant to be like... not rounded im just makin a box with details here
i was just asking for myself in the future if i wanna post something 
sorry lol i was just saying
ive lost my needle threader fuckss saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake
farmer oc redesign 😳
idk how to draw straw hats so enjoy the hitch hatched criss cross on her head
drawing my husband
