If that is not your piece please post the valid source of the artist who drew it, as the rules say
Creator:Le_Trudos [on reddit]

sjhdddkne
sadness
if i do color it, it'll be in probably my painted style like this but idk yet haha
holy shittttt i’m in love
do you guys have any suggestions on how to incorporate a scorpion into my drawing? i’m thinking some kind of jewelry rn, like an ear cuff
but it’s not looking quite right
Oh looks nice
funnily enough
that lore
is actually based on the actual lore Awdry set in place that the show never really explored
My intention was to explore it
Thanks - and I might save this image and
try to re-draw it
as for going forward
I'm backing everything up

Drawing WIP of a character of mine!
!!!!!! Whoa dude
Drawing a rare ship from brawhalla :>
u got it diana 
go get that girl diana!!! 

ohno how did it break?
ohwait

I read that as your stylus is broken
I shall go bonk myself now 
hewoo bg

well i mean i was up at like 12 am playing with you guys
so i dont really have anorma sleep schedul eathtet
im not a part of the gang ;w;
damn a shame 

yes, i was here in 2019 and then i left
and thne i came back in 2021
if you search my name and type in image, you can see it
Oh okay! Well welcome back haha
I just didn’t have the context so I was a lil confused about what you were saying
some art that i'll prolly never finish
damn she looks badasssss
i was trying to draw the most badass bad girl i've ever drawn and well she came out
this is probably gonna be a stupid question but,
how is animation made? there's no way people just draw the whole animation frame by frame right...? im genuinely v curious
some do
how about anime? since there are so many transitions
i think the song by true damage is also hand drawn frame by frame
i think some still do too
they just have a huge production team
but i think it depends on what anime they're going for, like dragon maid i think it's hand drawn
but for the uhhhhhhhhh
hold on lemme get the name
land of the lustrous, they use some other form of animation
yep they had to model it
yeah, 3D animation would be v different i suppose
LotL was such a great anime tho ngl
the 3D models were so well rendered i would feel them on my fingertips
coughghiblicough
hiii soshh
OOoh houseki no kuni has great 3d animation
thank you uwu 
wip DFTPAY but concept/theme is Human turns into Monster;
kinda tried for a manticore reptile
OH i like it 😄
Tell me if this is still sfw lol
Might draw their husbands after I finished this one
What's better for a profile picture?
The first one
i like the first one too!
First one
First ☝️
The colors don’t quiiiiite match up perfect, but given that every ball of this yarn was unique, this isn’t too bad honestly
not sure where else to post this but does anyone have this book for sale, it’s sold out on fangamer and i’m not sure where else i can buy it
Oh that’s too cute! I’d suggest checking eBay to see if there’s any on there! Or possibly a digital copy!
cheese
where
omg i love houseki no kuni sm
damn that is a good hand
@rose dirge I need your help
Thanks homie 😤
woah that drawing is really cool
Thank you much 🤝🤝
np
i can imagine the creepy emoji with those drawn hands
lol that would be good too
realistic dab me up
Idk where to go from here
make a new drawing





It’s meant to tackle absence in faith and religious beliefs
would make it 100x better
gd i will stab you 
Yo you’re onto something
make it hold something with religious signaficance
that would be pretty cool
idk religion
I’m doing the crucifixion of Jesus Christ
And incorporating holes in the palms
But from there
Idk
then incorporate holes in the palms
idk man
follow your heart
Idk I’ll fw some ideas ig lol
bro wth that's so good lol
Thanks homie
np 🤠
finished a storyboard for an animatic I'm doing (yes it's dream smp, yes it's wilbur / ghostbur)
I'm doing work rn but I'll check it out tomorrow
Anyone got any good advice for shading? Just finished a piece (it’s in creative) and want to improve
i would say to use a darker color of the color you're using, so say u have a red shirt, use a darker red as shading etc. Using black for shading would look murky.
Another thing is to locate where your light is coming from and apply the shadows on the other side
Ah yeye ik that using a dark blue or purple instead of black is usually good
make use of the clipping tool so that the shading wouldnt go over your base color :D
yup yup 
rfioreuhf was my advice okay or no 
I do make use of the clipping tool both or that and just for use in general with coloring too, your advice is good! I dont mean to be rude or anything I do already know the stuff you did say :3 but it is helpful none the less
I do agree with all you said yeye
oh yeah, make use of shading layers such as overlay and darker color :D
groigheoriher i wish i could give more advanced advice ;w;
but im happy you find it helpful :D
Thats alright! :D
Only thing that jumps out at me is that the shadow from the door is sharp, and that from the guy is fuzzy
if anything it should be the reverse, or both hard-edged
Other than that I got nothin'
Oo noted!
Hey bud. Perhaps the hand can be attached to someone who is a 'foil' of Christ, like an imposter. Say, like a smiling politician or someone else very un-Christ like. Keeping in mind that the modern faith is often illusory, propagated by those who would seek to benefit from it in a very un-Christian way. Just a thought.
Or perhaps something more abstract? Like the hand could be erupting from the soil, a resurrection of sorts.
@rose dirge hmmmmm okok
I was thinking abt making it into a 3pt thing
With another
Hand*
I think your foreshortening is very skillful
And thank you lol
There's always the classic idea of the "reacher" and the "comforter" that people often use to describe romantic relationships but I think that applies to religion as well. Since you're going for multiple hands.
I can't wait to see where you go with it @hard wind bud!
struggling so damn hard
Trying to make a "meet the artist" thing using my personas and I'm not used to my art taking a long time, I'm usually done with a drawing by now TvT
If you want great looking pieces then be prepared to put time into it
Are you making a ref sheet for Jun?
It's looking cool so far as well
A redraw, Ima use the mood board for him, yeh, a new ref sheet, hopefully better than the previous thing, maybe I can draw his lemur form too lol
wow lots of yelow
Ref sheets look painful so I've never done em
I feel like doing a design like the one I did for my farmer
I can already see how it should look like
Oh yeah, I'm definitely adding that bunny logo on the sweater
thought robin was leah whoops
I was used to make the same confusion back then, they kinda look alike
Mosquito attack: sleep was never an option 
About 2 hours and 30 minutes into the drawing, they're colored :]
Now I gotta make the background 💃
Thank you! 🤝🤝
Well done @elfin saddle! That looks very pretty
woooo
So...I did a thing. 👀
hi
ooo what thing?
trying to sketch with just color, i find it relaxing
I may or may not have redesigned Justine's entire appearance in a single sittiny
Sitting*
that looks really good! love the hiar
Thank you so much! She makes a lot more sense now in accordance with her lore
Thank you so much! I'm glad you like her ❤
i love this
uhhh guys, i am trying to write a fanfiction recently preferably a sdv fanfic. Sadly, I couldn't think for a title atm, i had three but you can add one that suits best
Jolly Green Shoes or Apple of my Eye or Love Bandages?
My idea sucks ass but I tried my best to keep it more farming and slice of life themed but with some romance (but not too much)
oh my god look at that hair
thats so beautiful
maybe apple of my eye?
Jun does like them too
omg twinning
the snek's name is Charsi
awwww cute!
tfw you love snek but snek cannot love you 
:p
:b
finished abstract vent art
I have completed the storyboard for this project. Now I need to add more frames and clean that up. Yay. Progress. https://youtu.be/DtE6rATeQMM
Complete storyboard for my WIP animation "Peppermint". Song is "Peppermint" by Jack Stauber.
Ehe
the choker and the hair is so pretty :")
i love her choker too >_<
Gorgeouss!

finally get to use the tablet that I gave my stepfather years ago... I can only use it while he’s not working from home... but it’s a good start
If I get my own tablet again you guys better tell me to not sell it for like the 4th time :,)
IOFJEOIJFEOI GD YAYAYAY :D
Four rappers let their heart out on this incredible hard hitting track. Not many would understand this track because we talk about a lot of complex stuff... Lots of powerful emotions in this one for l
what do ppl think of the new song
if you get a new one and sell it ill punch you
virtually
thank you 
@odd rover I had a modded hair with this gradient already which I loved the colors, so I made a color palette from it, lined each hairstyle up with the gradient and just went through it pixel by pixel (if that makes sense)
I’m no artist so it was a pretty long process but it got a lot easier after doing it for a long time :p
That's awesome! Would you mind telling me which modded hair has gradients? I feel like I've gone through them all on Nexus, but can't find something good other than Coii's Hairs.
https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/1103
This recolor pack has some nice gradients, other than that I’ve gotten almost all of my modded hairstyles from Naver which I don’t have the original posts. I just have a bunch compiled together that I’ve collected over time
Putting this here as my first quick digital art scribble with a non-screen tablet in years after switching from an ipad 😩
Been just playing with lines and circles getting my eyes adjusted to everything for many hours, and will continue to do so for quite a long time
I'll be starting from the complete basics all over again to get my foundations proper... as it's such a different feel for me, and I never really cared for it back when I had my old tablets.
But anyways, fun...! :P
Going back to basics is always fun
That's what I did a month or so ago
isnt that life is strange smookie?
Realized that even tho I was drawing a lot I had no idea what I was doing
hi hi nae 
Howdy
how are u doing today :D
I'm great
Work up not too long ago
I have a big piece to tackle so I'm just gathering references
Ooo
good luck nae 
i should rlly try using more references when it comes to my art agh
Yeah references are good
I don't normally gather alot tho
Most times I just look for what I need when I need it
But this is a super big piece
hiiii sythia!!! 
its for a movie thats coming out soon
i wanna do a piece for it
oh you havent used it yet?
ah so new software :O
lets see how this goes
Someone had designed this character for me in Art Fight Discord after I did a DFTPAY and was curious on what name I should give them.
Artist credit;
https://artfight.net/~Elsewence
I was thinking like Maximus or Aurelius
Something Latin
that one i think would be super dope
Where's Leah?
offline
Oh, maybe changing her skin (A few days ago was still with Halloween Event lol)
💀
ohoo
bruh, it is such a pleasure seeing how my lines are getting better and better

the hair 👌
this sketch... it looks better than my whole lifetime of art
Super cute art!
It's all about practice... I haven't trusted until I did it myself
oh and tears
also thanks!!
Indeed indeed!
wait thats a sketch/???
lol no
oh gof
but I got the idea, just be prepared to dedicate serious time for art
art is hard
send help
not sure if this is the right place to post but HEY i'm making a zero two mod for SV and would like some feedback on it. Thank you and have a wonderful day 😄
Hey so I saw this drawing once that was like, Stardew Valley in a little star-shaped case? It was really cool, anyone know where that went??
Ooo very nice. It doesn't quite yet grab the look of SDV-style PFPs though, I must say.
Thanks for the feedback! I'm actually going anime-style route since this is the first time I'd done pixel art and I find that ConcernedApe style is still too hard to do 😅
Gotcha! Yeah I do pixel art too, and it's uhhh... it's hard. Especially to copy someone else's style. Good luck though!
i think it looks really good!the only thing i would say is maybe the mouth in the bottom left should be a little bigger? and maybe some more general contrast on the face but thats just my opinion 😌 also idk if the horns are left off intentionally on bottom left. overall i really like the look and feel and the cute symbols next to some of the portraits 
Thanks for your feedback! I will look into it and improve it along the way 
scorpio to continue to horoscopes series 
what do you guys think? is his face too grey? should i add more blush/red to his cheeks?
What do you mean? This there something wrong that needs to be fix?
idk what they’re talking abt but it looks great!
@lament turtle Please don't trash talk other peoples work in here
Thanks guys 
hue shifting would look nice
would help it pop
after an entire day of art this is all i have to show for it
go for it
but yeah red
blue would be a ncie touch
pablo picasso 
thanks!! gimme a few then i’ll see how it turns out :-)
oo i try to catch her streams when i can
yeah her stuff is nice
I dont watch her streams tho
i jsut follow on insta
39daph is actually a goddess at art🤌
THIS IS AMAZING the expression looks so realistic idk why
ah thank you!! i used a reference photo, which i do show when i post the time lapse eventually lol!! here is the reference:
Oh cool! I’ll have to look out for the time lapse haha.
lol i prob won’t post it here, my mobile discord doesn’t quite like videos :”)
not sure this did all that much. added slightly more red to his base skin tone, and some more highlights/contrast
i feel like he’s slightly too red now

thank you!!

omg that looks great chunky
thank you sm!!

looking good 
fanfic cover go brr but idk how to draw him properly without looking like in his 20s aaaaaa
also i suck at hands lmao
Can I get help on my sprites? I'm not liking how they look already.
this is the ref image of my NPC Justine.
And here's me trying to edit her new sprites (new look next to the old). I don't know what I'm not liking.
Anyone here know if theres anything i can get on clip studio paint that resembles this texture??
theres probably a brush you can download
a glitter? one might get that kinda texture
I don't even know at least 10% of what CSP can do
Mood
You can actually rip the texture right from that image
When I get on my pc I'll send the tutorial
So that its seamless..?
Seamless enough
From what I saw in the tutorial it was seamless
Works really good
I don't mess around with texture myself so idk much about them
@lone mountain https://arttips.carrd.co/#texture
Thank youuu
np
hope it works
@tropic halo, you lived with the one by wacom for quite a while, right? I’m thinking of purchasing it as a temporary tablet soon
I know it’s very small but was it still somewhat comfortable for you? Like, did it leave your hand really sore after a few hours of use?
I had it for 2 y I think, wasn't too bad but I lost some of the pen's tip
Making a picture
the baby is growing, flat colors
nope. no wrist pain.
ive never gotten sore from using it
and its also pretty sturdy so youll get years of use out of it. ive thrown it a bunch of times and its still in one piece and functioning.
i think wrist paint would come more from how your tablet is positioned more than the tablet it self
just make sure its set at a comfortable angle

wow thats so pretty 
thats so good
Thx Sosshwac and gimgimgimgimgimgimgiimgmibobo (lol long nick)
Ty!
That’s so CUTE
Thank you very much,, I only plan on using it for a few months, I just need something to get me by for now since I want to be drawing every single day and I can't do that with the intuos pro. <3
It's a good choice for temporary
If you keep it in good shape you can always resell when you're ready to upgrade
Hii I’m drawing more Wanda because she is still on my mind 25/8 so here’s a WIP — an attempt was made at effects, I’ve never done them before!
yobi i love it very much
a wip.
is there somewhere else I can follow your art?
Only Facebook, but I'm thinking to share art in Ig
Thx BG! 

A little sketch
Dang dude nice halo art, love Arby’s lil smile
sharing one villain for another
Its selfie time bois
amazing facial structuring on the guy
quick question
does anyone know how to flip a canvas in csp
the things under the navigator?
thanks 
no probs 
Ahh, I should do that too
anyone have a backup of stv_tara's art that was on twitter but got deleted?
no idea who that is
well nvm I found it on the artist’s pixiv
Share share share
wip wip wip of a friend's oc
That’s flipping gorgeous nae 
ooo very good
Just wanted to plop some attempted skull studies here
ooh love studies, i always find myself drawing the same pose/angle all the time 
Love the great anatomy of the head
ooo
those are nice
awwww
More studies
Ohooo
Wow putting that skull collection to good use Zoe!
dog dog dog dog :D
nice dog

oooh i like his clothes
just met ||Leo|| and he has my heart already... might be drawing him soon
no idea who ||leo|| is but i cant wait to see art
im done :>>
damn
that was fast
they use sai so idont think that would translate well
oic
sai brushes are super hard for me to recreate
maybe you can get the texture tho
cause sai brushes use image texture a lot
i have an oil brush that looks similar but its quite hard to use
oil brushes are the bane ofmy existence
i have yet to try creating my own brushes
mhm maybe i should do some research on how to do it
i kinda just
mess around
til it does what i need it to
my fav is probably the brush i made with my watermark on it
easy way to watermark my work
thats such a nice idea tbh
Alan walker
is there any way you could backup your brushes tho? cause im always paranoid that some day my pc will break down and ill lose everything
water shit iLL NEVER USE lmaoooo thats me 100%
sex paint looks wonderful
its a brush that has force fade
LOL
so the edges just go poof
yeah you can in clip studio
just click the lil cloud option
i have mine set to back up everytime i open clip studio
its kind of a pain since i have 21093012930192312039 brushes
but its worth it in the long run
i use it a lot
it works well for me
i used it on this
thank you!!
if sdv tells about being bored of office life and moves to farm life, I guess this one is the opposite lol
it's been so long I haven't draw employee getups 
👁️ neato
cutee
wow that looks amazing!! Also good idea as well :-0
looks a nice change from the farm
No u
KNIFE
i dont think i can give it out since i got it from my best friend a year ago, even if you use sai :')
this is really cool! but i am a little worried abt k n i f e

THIS LOOKS SO COOL
just a quick sketch of myself
that is so good!!
that sketching style is quite nostalgic to me, when I started drawing I had the exact same sketching style
btw its a really good sketch
that's sweet darth 
cute!
guys does anyone have an idea on how to find specific voiceclaims? i dunno if this is the right channel for this, but I'm really struggling to find broken, smokey, tired or rough voices for my ocs 
Thanks Guys :>


👀
I like tricking with the eye ho ho

the finest of illusions
on a serious note tho, are you planning to do anything w it or?
No no, just a Pixel Dailies for today
valid 
Wait... I didn't change the nick in a few days, oops (Now is right)
I'll be going back to silent suffer in far cry 2
2018 markiplier... i miss those times
finished the art :>
me in this server



probably gonna trash this, but I can't draw perspective for the life of me
tho, I am trying to learn-
i dont know what else i could do to this any ideas seems kinda bland to me
added a sun and some moss/vines
Your colour choice and colour shading is absolutely gorgeous 
tysm 
your rendering is really pretty so far 
Drawing WIP! May edit it to make the character look like they’re interacting with the centipede more like have their hand or foot underneath it to make it look more 3D, critique welcome!
bruuuh centipedes are gross but I like drawings of them for some reason, nice job!!
Thanks! I'm a huge fan of bugs myself they certainly are fun to draw!
I might try too or maybe with spiders at some point again
It is good to practice! Spiders, butterflies are also fun!
this is niiiiice
leg time
🦵
Very clean sketch!
Thanks!
thanks 
still it's not clean yet, you might see it clean because it's zoomed out 😆
Cleaner than my sketches anyway lol
Haley and Emily are done, so who's next? I lost track of the other votes 
seb maybe 👀
very fast
oooo put down his emoji for a vote 👀
where? i missed the poll
new poll because I ain't about to scroll for 3 days to find it 
I havent actually used references in so long 
also is it just me or do the colors change when i click on it
they do
th
Yeah, when I click on an image, the colors seem to become brighter and more saturated. Very often when the image is clicked, it feels more accurate to the actual image than it does when just posted in the channel in terms of color.
i hate that it does that
the images are compressed when making the thumbnail and preview, it always leads to some innacuracies
Especially with gifs
scrolling up and clicking on more images, i do not experience the same effect as their image
it's more noticeable with certain colors.
On a related note I'm trying to get the color profiles for my two monitors to match and it's very tedious.
some progress

Hey guys! I just finished this vid and if you feel like it, give it a watch! I´d really appriciate it!
I just finished a vid of drawing my fursona! 🌿
https://t.co/FSLMHzxltV
Which of these looks more like an undercut?
neither of them, really
you can see in the bottom on that the area you've designated as the undercut follows the shape of the hair, not the back of the skull
U right u right
Unless their head is that shape
yeah, that's a lot better!
Thanks! Tbh I forgot to think about the head shape lol
head shape is very important
nice lines!!!
it's lookin great
thank you thank you
im gonna watch wanda vision soon
might sa well star embracing it
Thanks bout the lines!

I NEED THAT EMOTE LMAOO
lip attempt
juicy
Oooo very nice
I love those glossy lips
Oh wow, those look damn accurate
I’m still trying to warm up to a non screened actual tablet again,, and CSP in general but that’s like the first thing I’ve properly tried and
thank u guys
Oh, and I tried this last night
I should have drawn something else but Omori strikes and chibi, I haven't done it in such a long time
cutee
just bough a massive brush pack
cant wait to mess around with these
so cool...
oooh the stuff i could do with these brushes :fantasising:
gonna be a pain to install
wip on smthn
more wip
nice
I'm starting a mod to replace townsfolk clothes with traditional japanese clothes. Would love some feedback! First sprite is mine, second is one from game for comparison.
you say traditional but the first thing I assumed was futuristic labcoat.
I blame Star Trek, I was just watching reruns
can i steal this :o and make it an emote :yobihug:
Lauren already made it with a emote lol
U can!
Haha ":yobihug" lol
thank you i will most definitely be using it
I'll use it with an emote... if I can lol (Don't have nitro)


Lol cute
i'm probably gonna make it a bit bigger later, rn i may or may not be in english 
U want it more bigger?
Lol
Very big
Hmmmm
Well...
I thought it looked like a wizards robe
looking good!! i always save a copy of lineart/copy it all as one layer in case i don’t like the coloring lol
also moomin pfp buddies yay 
lol welp that won't work, I'll rework it into a more traditional looking kimono
Oo true true! I use layers so I can prolly save it and pfp buddies!!
it did look kinda like a bathrobe at first glance, but i think if you tweak the collar part so it has the triangle fold that might make it more clear?
lol ty for the feedback! I guess since he's a scientist labcoat is a natural thought? I'll re-do it more kimono-like
Yeah, I was working of a picture of a traditional scholar's robe that has the round collar, but I think that's just not going to work at this resolution. Even the v-neck is hard, because the center of the character is two pixes instead of one. 🤷
oo gotcha
well either way it looks good so far though!!!
nonono it's fine, that wasn't criticism. Just amused by how far off base I was
Sure!
okay so i have this dude right
i kinda wanna make anything w some weird tails and features in the face??? but,,, brain empty 
i was thinking of maybe spikes or hackles on their back
but other than that i have no clues
no idea how to draw or design anyone that isnt human

Kitsune maybe? Though not really weird features ...
nno
hornnnnns?
like in the middle of the forehead going back??
like ridges on that one vegiterian dino
or maybe like swirly tatoos
or ear piercings? bc i dunno i think those ears would look dope with piercings
or like
i know this is two hours later hfejds
but not swirly tattoos but just lines? scarification-esque, i guess
and i think your palettes and colors lean on the dullish side so if you made something glow that could be something like a pop
but i am just throwing things out i dont really know 
I am trying to make a fanfiction for my OC's, I lowkey am struggling with conflict ideas to keep it going. But the main plot is a murder mystery thing so yeah-
careful miss, things fell out easily
some kind of study lol
What kind of plot stuff are you looking for? Anything specific?
Haley
I have an entire brainstorming doc if you want to look at that
I was attempting to draw my farmer 👩🌾
i saw this before you colored it in yesterday, looks great!
Just found out that when I was younger I was offered a large cintiq display for free from my stepfather and I declined it then he sold it 
Very cute! 
that’s a fat rip

It’s possible your pixel art has gotten rusty, but I wouldn’t say you’ve lost all skill, either.
Honestly, I find losing skill as an artist quite difficult, but that could differ between you and I.
no you got a point I might just need to find those skill again even when they are "buried " somewhere
this was my reference picture btw
sure
If you’re really looking towards finding the skill level you were previously at, I highly recommend exercises. I used to do a lot of pixel art, but I don’t anymore so I don’t know a lot of the exercises I used to do.
I know I played a lot with colors and shapes, but that may not work for everyone.
thats worth trying
Where is this picture from when Qi has hair btw 😂
Honestly, no idea.
As a professional Minecraft skin creator, I can definitely say working with colors and shapes actually helps a lot, especially with things like shadows and highlights. Don’t know how it works for me, but if you wanna give it a try and see if it works for you, it’s definitely worth a shot. c:
That’s on a really limited canvas though, so who knows what you could do with a 64x64 portrait?
sure, thanks
Good luck on finding your “lost” skills.
yea I making my own minecraft skins and its very limited
thank you :D
Really? That’s cool, do you have a PMC or a Skindex? I recently deleted all skins I created, but I can look at yours and give you support if you want. I have a high respect for the skin-creating community.
People who make minecraft skins are strong people
i tried making a minecraft skin once and gave up cause i got bored
I couldn’t figure it out lol
imagine a Drag queen mod, how would sebby look?
like a drag queen

Anyone here who does couple commissions wanna drop their comm pages and whatnot 😳
How does one draw wizard hats, fedoras, and straw hats or any hats with rims??
Oh boy foreshortening with round flat objects
I'd imagine that you'd start with a circle where the rim goes and building off of that, but I'm not aware of any deep discussion among artists about the "correct" way to draw any sort of hat on a person.
hats have proven deceptively difficult for me in the past
Best to look at a few photo references
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6QqzWryEn8 my favorite animatic
Hey so uh I've been playing Stardew for almost a month now and I fell in love with the chicken man,, So I made this animatic :, )
I'm sorry abt the drawings, I don't have a great tablet and usually I do the base sketch traditionally. But hey I did this in like 3 days and it was just for fun! I hope you enjoy. Also, PLEASE don't repost anywhere!...
fun sketch for my KRR+ bbs 
We can’t put them here but rather discuss them thru DMs
ye thats fine

AMAZING
aaa thank you!
time for a background :>
YOOOO - my friend revived my fan-made comic series!

This comic series will dive deep into Thomas' backstory from The Railway Series that didn't get touched upon much
handling the loss of his brothers and sisters (He's the last of his kind)

I think a messy hair suits him well
for sure, the blush and some scruff is 🤌🤌 too
Agreed xD

Heheh yay! I made nae happy!

..hmm i wanna try finishing a piece within 15 minutes as a quick practice but every time i try to, they always become full blown pieces and take me 6 hours-
ive given up on trying to limit myself
uhh does anyone knows what was the main font for the game? im kinda having a free font dl shopping tho aaaaa
it could be custom
thank youuu
hello, what software do yall use in creating pixel art?
Aseprite is popular!
our CA uses paint.net which is free
There’s a good number of options that you can take a look at
- Aseprite, as GD has mentioned, is $19.99 (free if you can compile the program yourself
- GIMP is free
- Krita is free
- Photoshop good ol classic PS goes for $20.99 monthly subscription
- Clip Studio Paint, the pro version is $49.99
I'm not sure if GIMP is suitable for pixel arts 
at least krita won't crash if only doing pixel arts
if there’s a will there’s a way

I think most programs can do pixel art if you get the brushes
Ello azzy
if you can buy CSP tho, you can hit 2 birds for 1 stone
I must say it's suitable for general arts and pixel arts
Ah yeah gotta add that
master soy 🙇♂️
I think it’s expensive if they want to do pixel art only

Oooooo I see, thank you! I use Photoshop for photo manipulation and I can say Im pretty much experienced with it. Just recently tried out CSP as well. Will definitely look into it!
I saw your wips. You’re doing great with your OL series.
Good luck Ciara!
Some CSP brush packs are free to download and some you have to buy
You can scroll https://assets.clip-studio.com/en-us/ and see if there’s anything you think is good for your pixel art adventure
that's actually kinda a spiritual remedy for me
in order to avoid being bored of drawing 40 portraits 💦

CSP is honestly the best art program I've ever used
I've tried many but still came back to it and stuck with it
gimp is crusty
its like potato shop but even more potato
save my self a headache tryng to use it once
this
when i first bought csp i ignored it and used sai
cause i couldnt for the life of my find a way i enjoy to do lineart in the program
then i just said fuck it and stopped doing lineart
now im a full time csp user
on the other hand my artstyle has lineart so csp is quite well-rounded for everyone ig
csp is great for lineart
my smooth brain just couldnt figure it out
the right amount of stabilizer
the brushes i liked
so i just stuck to sai
since i had everything i needed there
my brain is smoother than marble cause painting can never work right for me cries
painting is fun thoooo
you dont even need it to work
just
put colour all over
an hope for the best
thats all i do
lend me ur eyes
you can have them on tuesdays
but yeah i kinda just
look at artists with styles i like
and look at real people
and then mess aroudn and hope it looks good
I guess I better take a photo of myself and doing the pose, damn book is hard to draw 
gonna just saves
Interesting idea to use yourself as a pose reference, I wish I had someone to take the photo for me tho lmao
Looking good👁️
consider: put phone on a shelf and use camera timer
finally working on sve portraits again >:-)
:o
Why not both
O: you are right!
Uh, anxiety, I’ve never posted here but uh, here’s a doodle in my new sketchbook. Not perfect, but what doodle is?
You can tell that i was too lazy to do clothes
yo!!! ur art is really good!!!!
oh, you can go to settings to change emojis from automatically popping up
it's under text & images
Oh thx
ofc!
she is Complete
omg i love her design smm
yeah thats so nicee
i got aseprite a while back and ive been meaning to get into pixel art
Do any of you have any advice on getting commissions?
Like, how to advertise that you're open for commisisons
see nae's name, this is how people are showing they do commish around here
Alright, that makes sense
twitter
discord
reddit
instagram
just post your comm sheet all over
Alright!
make sure your art is sexy enough for people to want to spend money on it
and try to have solid terms of service
to protect yourself from scams
and also to protect your clients
Yeah I have like a pretty good terms of service
can i see?
Sure, one second I’d love for someone to look over it
im no pro but ive seen my fair share of scams and loopholes so i might be able to help
i also have a server you can join
its great for advertising
not my server tho
just a general server for artists
Thanks a lot!
TOS
-
if i have started on the piece and you want a refund, i am only able to provide a partial refund, if i have yet to start i am more than happy to issue a full refund, no questions asked (if you prefer to pay prior to me starting)
-
my turnover rate is usually under 4 days for it to be started and under 24 hours to complete and be sent to you
-
once you have paid, you are free to use the piece however you like. i do not charge extra for commercial use and while credit is appreciated if the art is reposted, it is not required
-
if there is any issue or delay in the process i will contact you and keep steady communication
Also I ask for payment after the sketch is done
nonono
never do that
take full payment up front always
they can eaasily just run off with the sketch
if the buyer is worried about getting scammed then just remind them that paypal has buyer protection and worst case scanario then can force a refund
but there no protection for the artist if the buyer runs off
Oh alright
you can take a look at my terms if you want https://nae.uwu.ai/#terms
i make sure to go into detail about everything
Yeah thanks :D
and for your turnover time you need to give yourself room for personal issues
Oh yeah that makes a lot of sense
stuff can come up irl that you didnt plan for
Your right I should probably up that a bit
i have mine set to a week - 3 months
i dont plan to ever take 3 months to finish a piece
but i never know what might come up
its good to have that free time just incase
Yeah!
Thanks a lot for all the help, I'm reading through your tos right now and I'll probably borrow some of the stuff on there if you dont mind lol :D
oh wow, running with just the sketch
go for it
and just ignore all the shitty images i have on my site rn
im working on it

the middle half body image is so sexy 😻
^
@spring parcel i wish it had some options for men, at least elliot is the best one to try to make XD
Yeah lol (https://picrew.me/image_maker/365408)
what color scheme should I choose for a character?
Whichever you'd feel most comfortable working with
that is 100% elliot apart from his immense jawline, good job omg
I gave him a strawberry clip :D
i wonder...
That’s awesome!!
stwar,bv,b, starber,,,ryr,,,

tried to give him a slightly manlier jawline but it doesnt look like much
wait thats a dude? 
i thought its like genderbend fsduhsfd
if youre having problems w making them lookin more manly id suggest making the chest part flatter 
we used a character creator that only does girls and I'm editing it (starting on the face but eh). click through the replies before helping plz
sorry,,
slowly chipping away at this
That was a little rude -.-
I know I shouldn’t engage but uh- there where many different ways you could say that like..
“Oof it’s a character art from pit crew I don’t think it will let me change it.”
yeah i agree
and you did say you were editing it
so it was a valid suggestion
¯_(ツ)_/¯
sexyy
gonna be your oc??
cause if yes
i perhaps maybe wanna try drawing her as my first animal/ humanoid character
Hm?
need to make an edit 😄
looking good so far
cheers, though I need to make an edit 🙂
what do you need to edit?
Mostly bring some of it down, some people, myself included, mistook the ocean for the sky
that and the height of the green looks like mountains aha
yeah it does look like a mountain now that you mention it
Yobi ur progress in general has been amazing!
Thx Ssoshwac! It is much appreciated!
Anyone can help me? I have 335 hours in Aseprite lol
@mossy leaf @plain cedar
that looks much better, but the water could be much lower
