Definitely watch some tutorials and speed paints, you can kinda see how artists do it
Always do some research and stuff for art, it’s a good practice
OOH OKIEE
i dunno if this is quite creative but I took time to make em in the sims lol
just did em bb quite recently thoo so I'll probably post em here bc I am hesitant to do on the creative channel hfadhjdsfhjg
omygosh thats so cute
who is the girl
@fluid basin hii yobi!!! checking in on you since i havent been in creative discussion in a while, have you finished ur project? 
please help me with this hand 
fingers angled upward upward more like in this photo maybe?
another ref pic
Thank you so muchhh
She's my farmee uwu
Sorry dude! When I finished the movie I decided to have 5 days without the pixel art, because the hands were hurting
But the day before yesterday I make the 201
to a friend
Nae gave me an idea for a signature lol

Or make the "o"'s in "Smookie" cookies, and replace the cookies with baking gear!
ohooo
Or donuts.
hell ye that's an idea
Since it also has a hole.

Also don't give me any credits for ideas of the logo change.

I don't feel comfortable getting credits for an idea, whilst the effort to make it is way more.
I will mess around with it
Best of luck!!
can always just make em a little smaller
someone teach me how to do lineart rn before i shoot

lol
Sure.
you just wish wosh your hand nae
So basically, when you sketch your drawings.
and there you go
I mean, people go for messy line art too and it looks good!
it doesnt
i didnt even try lmao
i did the first line and saw how fucked it was
then gave up
ill try seeing if colouring the sketch like i usually do will for for a comic style like this
Dude did you see my 1-bit pixel art?
I ain't giving up either though.
Like look at this. The stones float, the person doesn't have a natural position, and so on.
donut giv up hop
eh
i just thought it would be cool to do lineart again for the first in a long time
but i dont think its gonna work out
i found something very neat
👀
woah
weew
might be able to help if you ever need backgrounds for art maybe ...... but its also just fun to mess with
thanks for sharing wollo
@candid citrus dude I thought you were my sister lmao.
She always names herself "Willow" on every social media/game.
ur sister has good taste in names !
Well thank you, so do you ✨
Quite a while ago actually
Damn, alright.
Let's keep this art related again.
Good idea xD
me on the other hand is trying to make my lineart messier so they look more analog-like
i just gonna clean up my sketch and render how i usually do
How do you usually do your renders?
i just sketch
put flat colours under it
merge them
then render
with a brush that has a little colour mixing
this is basically the process
the last one isnt fully rendered yet tho
im busy
Oooh I see
thats so different from how i do it asldjvawlje but my problem is i can never imagine how to do it differently
i just picked up differnt workflows from speedpaints i watch
might change up a bit based on what im doing
cheeky fantasy au
I've joined the pee role gang.
piss yellow artist role
Yes.
i need to start drawing again
AWWWW
we're now armed with guns
That’s so cute!

yeah, it was a beautiful story
anyone want a snek bracelet?
aww
In reference to earlier conversations in #creative. It's good to be aware that there are different ways of presenting gender in art. Not just two very strict binaries: masculine man or feminine woman.
And it's also good to remember that different people define masculinity and feminity differently too. It means different things to different people.
How many times do I have to repeat the fact that I'm sorry and that I already acknownledged my mistake?
Just drop it already.
It's been handled.
....we're not talking about the fact that you didn't ask
We're talking about your actual critique.
I am talking about that as well.
....are you sure.
No I don't know at all what I'm saying.
Mistakes can happen now drop it.
There's absolutely NO point to continue this id I've already apologized a lot of times.
You're really angry about this, when we're just telling you humans are differents
At this point you're just harassing me with it.
You keep repeating the mistake I've made.
Ah of course, it's harassment because we told you genders are vast.
Even if I said I understood it and I apologized.
You didn't... apologize for the critique, but because you didn't ask.
Drop. It.
You're very stuck on one thing, and it's very annoying
No, you are.
You keep ignoring what we are actually saying
Because you're stuck
Dude, stop it. I've apologized a lot of times and said I understood it.
this: basically this, that you are ignoring LOUDLY
Why is it so hard for you to move on?
Why is it so hard for you to read?
Drop it. Please.
this is going way too far...
I keep saying that.
...this is ridiculous
How can someone be so stubborn
I think they already got the idea, you should probably stop
I told you a lot of times I'm sorry, I understood it, and if you could please drop it. I don't feel comfortable anymore.
They didn't tho. But alright I guess? I'm the culprit??
Wtf is wrong with people
How would you know if I did, or did not understand it?
Please drop it. It's the last time I'm asking.
Because it's pretty clear you just ignored the actual point
It's fuckin stupid..
I have drawings to do tho
nice then let them be and be more mindful of your own words in the future maybe
@lament turtle Bringing yourself into another person's disagreement after they have already resolved it does nothing. In the future it is best to report thing to @weak matrix if you feel someone needs to be talked to about something instead of taking it upon yourself
This just really isn't the place to argue
I get what you were meaning tho - you were commenting on the critique itself
not adding onto the fact that critique shouldn't be given unprompted
the situation is over now so we'd prefer no further comments
I might make a ref sheet too for a character r I have in mind
Yours is coming out great so far tho
Leak character when. 😳
this is like the first serious character ref!! I gotta think about a background to work with it
Damn it.
Grass hills maybe?
Since snakes camouflage in large grass patches.
Most snakes*
or cabbages and snakes rofl
Lmao.
Ref sheets don't usually have a serious background
Kinda distracts from the main focus which is the character
!!
You could just do a 1 color background.
So the character pops out more.
Black, white, grey, etc.
I meant something like the bg of my farmer
like the character and bg goes hand in hand
That's really distracting b. G I for it if that's what you want
I mean, it really depends.
If you make the background a little more transparent, and the colors blend in with the background.
It could look nice.
that's a neat ref sheet but yeah the bg is kinda distracting, especially since it's the same-ish colors :c
Can't tell you what to do in your own art but the main focus of ref sheets are the characters and their designs
If you add repeating patterns and stuff it's just gonna take focus away from what's important
the creative babey
yeess
You can maybe add a floor so it looks like he's standing
it was literally the first ref sheet anyway so I can work better on the future ones
Yeah, like a 1 tile.
Like Marc brunet does
Ref sheets are a pain in the ass cause it's full bodies and busts and uggh
So much work
Main reason why I haven't made one yet
I have one oc
lol
She exists only in my head rn
But I think I'll finally love her when she comes to life

i don't have any OCs yet; so question: why create OCs? ive been curious for a while
I want to create a mime oc so bad but I gotta keep myself from doing so before redrawing my actual babies
What even is an OC? Online Crush? Lmao.
original character
Ah.
I tried making a VN before so I did design some characters but then I'm not attached to them enough to call them my OCs so... anyone who has OCs, 👀 lemme into your secrets
same ^
visual novel
visual novel
ah
sometimes I just get an idea about how a character would look like, either a memory from my life or after a chat with a person online, these are few things about how my characters are born.
My one oc rn is more of a persona
A little character of me
But a lot of pieple create ocs to live on the worlds they make
Some make ocs just because they want to
Some make em for comics
Lots of reasons
OOOooo that's really insightful, that actually gave me some good ideas
Thank you for answering!
Np
Why is it when I type on my phone all ik about the English language just goes poof
Smh my head
a lot of my OCs I made just bc the design for their appearence came to mind, and I just, worked on em from there
or I thought of a personality quirk and thought, 'yes, this will make good character'
I like character design but I wanna give my one oc/persona a good story and a good ref
I don't wanna have 6493638368373 characters piled up just because I liked the design I gave them
I'm just gonna sell those as adoptables rather than keep them as ocs
I created Jun after a talk with somebody on this server ,their name was Jun too and their nick is Cabboi because they like cabbages, I wanted to create a kid who can change the eye color depending on his mood and has a pet snake! (thanks Nae for the bonus idea) I am so hype to write his story on toyhouse and I think it will be really fun.
Oooo that's super cool. I once Read a story where the protag has colour changing eyes and was homeless
shaking my head my head
Pretty sure it was a 5sos fanfiction tho 
Precisely
damn, you read 5sos fanfic? the knock off One Direction?
fair point, better to flesh out a few OCs than to have many
I loved 5sos
Dont know where that knock off one direction thing came from but I also liked one direction
its personal preference, you can have Lots of OCs and still just flesh out a few
idk if its a wide spread opinion, but i did always think of 5sos as a knock off One Direction considering they came After and both were
boy bands
Yup
Quality over quantity
There's a lot of boy bands that came after one direction
Doesn't make them all 1D knock offs
And many came before
Doesn't make 1 D a knock off of them
But to each their own opinion can't change what you think
ooo ocs!
i only have one :D
made her with the idea of someone who may had a little rough start in life but not to the point of edgy D:
hi guys!
is the anatomy correct? i feel something off here

ohhh, someone's talking about 5sos? I LOVE THEMMMMMMMMMMM
looks spot on to me

thanks guys 
f
my lineart usually doesnt take long
the lineart on my event entry took about an hour
hmm actually less than that
for extra info, shading took 2.5 hours, flats took ~45 mins
yeah im hella rusty
i havent dont lineart in a long ass time
probably why it took so long
eh
i dot need to rush ig
dont wanna mess up
looks so nice with most of the colours down
ngl... it took me long enough to get clean lines and I am still not satisfied
yeah i agree with you on this, once you lay down the flats you just kinda admire it a bit then...
oh wait i need to shade
ig these lines didnt take too long...?
idk
i didnt really time my self
it took half a greys anatomy episode
shading... haha, hello darkness my old friend
LMAO
lmao shading
i havent done cell shading in a long ass time
now idea how im gonna go about doing this
use lasso fill
ive acltually never used that
the blur tool is basically next to useless to me
alsdjala i was kidding, i only use the lasso fill to do large areas of flats
i might try using it one day
i tend to just hand colour most things
even large areas
my patience can never
i like the feel of it
i am a very irritable person so hand colouring is just not for me ill flip-
for one its calming
and 2 it kinda just
makes it less digital if you get what i mean
kinda have the texture and stuff
mhmm i recently changed all my brushes into textured ones too
i like textured brushes
i like having 92130291302913012 brushes to play around with
i recently got 2 brush packs
one with 500+ and one with 800+

one day im gonna open csp and its just gonna explode
i like staying loyal to my 12 pack of selected elites 
Best part about 1-bit pixel art;
Only need pencil + eraser, and no need to worry about colors.
It depends what kind of art you want to make, everyone has their preferred materials
i have my main brushes that i use on almost everything
but i love having all the options
that way i can have a fuck ton if i need to
one time I opened csp and my entire computer shut down and wouldn't turn on for like an hour
That was like, a month ago I think
It works fine now though lol
Yup.
i actually have a lot of unused brushes dumped into a sub tool category that i just... put all the way to the bottom of my toolbar,, im guilty of hoarding brushes
brush hoarders
i use clip studio and the default brushes are good
The rest will be... remembered
i have like
3 brushes that i use all the time
but i have 219302913 that i just slap on a piece form time to time just cause i have em
can discover great things when you experiment
The realistic watercolor brushes are really good
the rest will be dumped into a subtool category and put all the way at the bottom of the toolbar
Too guilty
i do have procreate on my ipad though i dont use it that often
istg i have brushes that are so similar they basically do the same thing but i just alternate between them bc/// i need to let the brushes rest
I’ll be coloring the event art today
i delete them over time
i go through and keep what i like and yeet what i hate and know ill never use
yeet.
ohooo 


13 y/o kids be like; "I'll be right eh.. back.."
Awesome art though!!
Great job!

Anyone wanna make children with me? 
|| I mean design children for an 'Adoption Mod' I'm working on!
||
guess what, yes, im updating, I got a question, how can I make the side sprite of this chair so it looks good?
I’m sun bleaching some deer skulls so I can crystallize them!
I won’t post any pics until after they’re crystallized tho
But they’re looking so nice and I’m very proud of my hard work
I am not good in drawing hooded figures so might need some advice.
She is one of the new characters on an insane endgame story idea.
i dont like what youre implying about kids
thats gross
😐
Then what did you mean
Though, I gotta say. Even if I did, don't act like 13 y/o don't do that shit these days.
...?
I said "Even if I did".
I legit never said I did imply it on that way.
I'll just drop it from here since it's starting to get an useless argument.
Move on with your day. Enjoy your day.

not sure if ive shared this entire sketch and expression here but im thinking of adding her glasses
Oh that’s CUTE
Maybe have it to where the sunglasses are kinda low on the nose?
So you can still see the eyes and it’s like she’s looking over them
ooooooooo
ill try that
idek why i gave her sunglasses
its gonna look so outta place with her having a dress on
That looks awesome!!
might give her normal glasses
ive commed so many art of her
this one is my tnr on discord and twitter
Super cute either way
and this one is by a user that goes by gabriel here on discord
One of many.
not in this server
hmm, im still clueless on how should I make the side of my chair sprite,
preety
Yeah basically just an L
ok, ty
the picture in the sub view holy shit
It's perfect isn't it?
absolutely
Heheh
You ruined Mr krabs for me
How.



Could you normally react instead of those emojis instead of evading answering me like that?
Otherwise stop with blaming me for everything since that means you obviously know I didn't do anything.

Ok.
I am going for a more mysterious kinda feel. I got other colours set to try out, but i feel neutral colours does give a feel.
any feedback?
It loos really cool!
Though, you don't seem to have any place to rest your arms on.
@storm fulcrum
And the side view doesn't have a straight back? No clue if it's intended.
hmm, never thought about that point, but as it was inspired by a chair with no armrest, idk if I should add that
Well, in that case you might want to change the side view to a straight back.
Now it looks like those bed-benches.
so, I should make it more linear?, idk how should it be done as im not an expert in pixel art
(the side view)
is this one better?, (the side view)
the back is slant rather than straight
its a direct side view so you wont have all the details youd see in the front showing
the legs also wont be the same width apart
unless its a square chair
hmm, Im clueless on how to do the back, should I return it to how it was before?
@storm fulcrum it would almost look something like this
yeah that looks better
but the pattrn woudlnt be showing
because its set directly sideways
the grey buttons/dots?
yeah
oh is that what it is. I thought it was wicker
@lament turtle Better's here to talk, But u clock have more details in the wood, mine was just a part of "decoration"
Is your first Pixel Dailies? 
There is also an #upgrade
Ohhhhh
Then you are on the right track, congratulations!
Thank you ^-^
does anyone got kawaii ideas for items?
more plushies
cute wall decorations like photos and maybe dreamcatchers would look good! i love the pixel couch midori!! :0 ❤️
Hi guysss
I need inspiration for a machine sprite
The actual i have here is horrible
And i want to redo but i don't know how
aw, tysm, it means a lot to me ❤️ 🙂
that the back view of the couch on the right?
yes
gibb milk to kitty
milk to kitty
Ok why do I find this hilarious and shit?
The art styles perfectly match.
It came out of nowhere.
And now it tells a story.
Easter Art Progress: Day 2
a perfect milk
Even though Easter ended long ago, I can't wait to see the finishing product!
Best of luck!!
Thank you!

Well, it’s for the event lol
Heh.
My next goal is to color Dwarf, then I’ll do the blossoms and water using watercolor
Nice!!
Flowers!
it already exist on background
That's a pretty sunset
Is the junimo painting a junimo painting?
tried diff colors, it just missmatched
The problem is, the flowers point towards hills except to us.
So they're not that noticeable.
cuz its windy
Ahh.
the theme is impending rain
Then add something that makes it more clear there's wind.
Like the hat is about to fly off, or the brush is in the breeze.
It's impossible for the brush not to move during winds, but grass does (usually).
All the grass is facing to the right
Yes, but in my opinion that's not that noticeable.
I'm not saying his art sucks.
Windy doesn't mean wind storm
Can just be a light breeze
I'm just suggesting adding those little details that could change things.
That's what I'm saying..
Kk
"usually"

I feel like I'm missing something at the beak, but I can't figure out what nor how to fix it. Could someone help bring me a 2nd (or more) perspective(s)?
Reference. ^
Hmm, true.
Looks more droopy than forward facing
How about this?
I'd personally say the first one was better if dragged down 1 pixel.
Like this.
its gorgeous AHHH
i love the details on what the junimo is painting 
@tropic halo
@lament turtle i would say put spaces for the bottom as well
since it looks cramped to me?
It's zoomed in @blissful sonnet.
Let me zoom out real quick.
The grey part is nothing.
is this gonna be a pfp?

Nope, it's for practice in general. Though, if I like how it looks as pfp, I might use it.
The Owl Cult inspired me I guess. I didn't know what to draw currently.
yeah the cults are still very much present
ooo
have u tried like a promt generator?
*prompt
i would say its good for practice and helps out when u are struggling to draw
No. Never heard of it.
a prompt generator generates random prompts in sentences that you need to recreate
such as "a princess in a knights costume"
Ohh!
could be a prompt
So that's how pixel dailies exist.
I was already wondering how some came up with that much inspiration.
Thanks a lot!
Sure!
Lmao.
Its name is art prompts on the google play store
I can now finally daily practice.
Thank you so much! This was exactly what I needed!!
rlly helpful when i dont want to draw animals but still get a generator

im happy i was able to help!!
cant wait to see more of ur art 

Oh my holy shit.
This app is amazing!
Can't wait to improve. I'll start with my pixal dailies tomorrow.
YAYAY
You're the best.
are you going to do it everyday?
If you need anything, feel free to ask me. I owe you a lot.

I'll try to. I have to improve somehow.
Please dont feel in dept to me, im just rlly happy to help a fellow creator :DD, but i might need help in perspective 
I will!
Hold on.
i spelt that wrong hold up
which one 
I didn't understood the "debted" part lmao.
But now I do.
that was me being dumb, forget about it 
as long as u feel that its fine, then im fine too 
gotta credit carl for datt
I'm fine with anything.
thank u slime for drawing it, and thank u carl for the idea 
@blissful sonnet thanks for the pfp idea!
It isn't perfect.
But way better than my previous one.
Thanks a lot!
Yeah, it was a bit blant.
This one is way more obvious as 1-bit pixel art.
its no problem Fame!!! im rlly happy u liked my suggestion 
Actually, I'll count this as my first pixel daily.
Yes!
done i guess? a bit too windy but i guess its okay
its so pretty
I love the colours
and them clouds! and that water!
thnx, i think im done, just need to edit some minor and its ready
Indeed!
Way and way better than previous one.
Look at the sparkles on the grass.
the sparkles were there before
What?
what
Oh shit they were.
Then what-
They stand out way more now somehow.
I didn't notice them at first.

¯_(ツ)_/¯
It's only good.
Since they make it way more beautiful.
More.. Magical.
Completed concept sketch
Now to find some way to put colour in... Environment artistry is nvr easy that's for sure.
you can start with simple colour blocking
throwing down colours quickly
then you can go form there
Heh, started my adventure.
i find throwing down colours super fast helps a lot
That shit looks awesome!!
Can't wait for the coloring!
gives life really quickly to your piece
Yeah, like just standard colors (grass for green).
And add shading and such later.
So you have a basic thing to work out on.
it is a desert area, but yeah i get what you mean
I know.
Well, I don't know.
But I put it as an example.
Glad to know you understand me though.

i think im gonna edit mine a bit
hmmm
darker grass?
also strange, the light was off in photoshop, smh photoshop
its looking beautiful
I preffered the lighter grass.
Especially since now the Junimo is less Junimo, and more slime.
the darker grass brings out the rim lighting a bit more
cant help it
makes the main focus the sunset
Yeah I agree, the grass would be darker because of the backlight
I mean I don't care about it that much to be honest. It's your art piece. It still looks awesome, still with this. Just shared my preference.
Everyone does.
whatever you choose it looks fine
but know that darker grass is gonna make the junimo less noticeable since its just as green as the grass
yee i think im done for now, lets put ideas and fixes for next arts
thats the spirit
everything is worng lol
use what you learn from one piece to make the next one better
Any idea what you're doing next?
Btw @tropic halo I used one of the rough brushes from the 800-brush pack you gave me to do my lineart to test it out and it looked so cool, now my lineart is closer to what I want it to be >:3c
hell yeah
(oh but i can't really share the art here bc it's most likely gonna be flagged as NSFW)
dms 👀
using SAI meaning, i d never use advanced brushes
sad noises
yuh 👀
you can get cool brushes for sai
Can I see it as well? You make amazing art.
just gotta find the right settings
how old are you
Nothing of your concern. Let's just say not a minor.
k
nae, where do you recommend buying a digital tablet and pencil for digital art?
sadly not every version of SAI have same setting, tried some before, the brush just doesnt match
so i just tune em myself
amazon
a store where you live
the official site
Oh thank you for saying that! Unfortunately I only feel comfortable sharing nsfw art with people who I've been talking to for a while, sorry!
Meh it's fine.
i kinda use my phone to do all those artwork
SAI brushes were difficult to control imo, I tried using SAI before but it just didn't click with me
yeah when i used to use sai 2 all the sexy brushes were for sai 1
sai brush engine is ass
but i loved using sai for lineart
dont get me wrong
you can make great professional level art in sai
you just gotta know what youre doing
need to have a diner and sleep with SAI to know them better
Sai is more lightweight, not as complex, still good though
Exactly, I've seen a lot of professional e.g. Japanese artists doing their art in SAI
yup
Then again, it's the artist, not the program
sai is just rarely updated because people tend to pirate it instead of buying it
so the dev cant afford to keep updating as often
back to the root of problem, yer just gotta try harder
i think original SAI already closed
nvm, it still exist
when i first started using sai i had no idea it was a paid program
and now theres SAI 2, and i heard there s no blur tool in SAI 2
hmmm... I use CLIP STUDIOS in pc
i think it is a version of manga studios? I did bought the entire whole set
csp supremacy +1
welp, where are we now
wip of a thing im making pls wish me luck this is the first time im doing a full scene
welp i might try clip studio after i get new pc
which is
stalled to unidentified time.
whoa long legs
also great composition
ty 😔 i have zero idea on making backgrounds im just making stuff up as i go
dont we all
i turned on the procreate prespective grid for the first time for this drawing and i was completely lost
sobs everything i draw is just one character in a blank background
You can try drawing the background first then add in your characters if you're struggling!
:0 ill try that next
i feel like it may be hard for me since i usually think of a character before i think of a scene but ill try it
Yeah me too, but it could be good practice 'cause it would be easier to give the character some context in the long run if you're thinking about improving on that
I mean, you could try to sketch the character, and before working out draw the background first.
@blissful sonnet I couldn't wait and tried out the app. The theme of it is lowkey in the frame around it.
It's in the making.
bg is sleeping
Heh.
Oh well.
He'll see when he wakes up.
Or she.
I'll just say they.
Oh shit-
Jeez she’s sleeping early then
yeah she said she was to be in bed by 10
artists people
can i get some feedback on this website https://bgthatgirl.uwu.ai/#
that looks rlly good!! i liket 
does anyone else remember flipnote?
fancy
woo
damn BG is getting into the big leagues
hell yeah
been working on this site all morning
might take a break for now to go work on my even piece
i havent even finished the lineart
good idea
Is it weird I’m practicing drawing by drawing my friends?
No? You can practise by drawing anything you like
But of course, that is unless you have bad intentions/doesn't have their permission, otherwise you're good!
oh I don’t have their permission, well more like I didn’t ask, whoops
I’m just drawing head shots cause I am tired of drawing myself
If you're not posting the final results then I guess you can do without permission? I don't know; someone else could put in their own two cents on this
Yeah I’m not posting it I’m just practicing drawing actual people in my artsyle instead of fan art
@neat frigate If you wanted to be doubly sure you could always just ask them if they were alright with it. I used to draw people on my commute all the time. Ofc I'd stop drawing the person if they noticed and asked I not draw them, granted I haven't had that happen.
yeah i agree
as long as youre not posting without their permission it should be fine
Yeah sometimes I wanna draw random strangers at the park or something to practice but too scared if it’ll be weird
if you dont wanna do people you see irl you can just google photos of people
theres a lot online
Imo that's fine, can't just keep getting reference from images online. It'd be another issue entirely if you were taking pictures of them and posting them.
There's just so much you can't get from online images, like lighting or certain perspectives.
Google just doesn’t seem realistic to me because like being out somewhere drawing people how they interact in not a still photo just seems idk more realistic
But yeah still I use lots of references in google anyways
Yeah!
I really hope to better my anatomy and photos aren’t really helping me imma be honest
There's places like Croquis Cafe that upload figure drawing videos (think you need a Youtube account to be able to view em since the models aren't clothed)
wdym doesnt seem realistic?
theres tons of candid photos on google
but whatever works for you ig
Senshistock's good too http://www.senshistock.com/sketch/#
A timed drawing tool for gesture, practice, and study.
Yeah I’ve tried places where it’ll show photos of dynamic poses and I try to practice with them but they never really work for me ^^;
I’ll keep trying of course
I mean the problem with images online is people tend to touch up photos they post online so they look better on a screen.
But idk I like seeing the person in front of me
Nothing wrong with using either method.
Yeah I like different body types and everything so seeing people what they look like and the style of clothes they chose to go out in just seems more real

lol I remember a lot of 'back of head' POV sketches in my sketchbook thanks to me riding a bus everyday
slow ass progress but progress
the lineart is sooo niiice!!
also the subview 
pffft
its how i feel on the inside rn
lineart stresses me out
especially since im not used to doing it in csp
its how i feel when i stare at my sketch for too long and i start hating it
i think this is the first time ive done lineart in csp
oo how did you find it?
i tried once
and never finished this
so this is my first honest try
its eh
i like doing lineart in sai a lot more
but thats just cause im used to it
how is it different? ive never really finished stuff using SAI
i do lineart and base colour in sai and then finish off in photoshop
to me sai is the best for lineart
sai is light weigh
so it felt a lot more loose and free while still keeping quality
maybe i just have a shitty pc but csp always felt kinda heavy
csp makes me nervous owo
photoshop
whenever i try to draw with ps my pc fan just screams
intimidates me
csp is like my little safe haven 
hmm that might be it, my pc runs csp with no problems
maybe its your over-abundance of brushes nae 
pffft
probably
csp isnt laggy or anything
it just feel
idk how to explain it
sai is just very light and so its fun
same
always has my back
it is pretty light iirc the last time i ran it
its like running mspaint
i might try getting back into it tbh
cheering you on in spirit 
time to save and not work on this again til a day before the event ends
Best of luck!
hehehehe
cute character
here's the completed upper body
Here's the completed everything
Looks quite good
It's also my new pfp
Nice
the amount of time this is taking to type scares me
A bit of a recommendation, I recommend to try making the lines thickness consistent, making the line thickness consistent helps the drawing not have that feeling like some of the parts were photoshopped in
Overall the drawing is quite good
I bet you if i didn't have the brush stabilizer from krita it would have looked insanely ugly

art peeps
can a couple of you fill out the form at the bottom of this site
i just wanna make sure i linked everything right so it goes in the spreadsheet
you dont need to use accurate info https://nae.uwu.ai/#terms

So this is just to test the filling of the form and not filing an actual commission, right?

Alrightie.
i just wanna make sure when the form is filled out it goes directly to the spreadsheet
setting up for when i open comms
Is it the one on the terms of service thing?
Done
Aight i shall fill it out

this is my submission in progress for that spring event... sigh... not liking it but I did tried my best
It's looking great so far
Keep going
I still struggling when coming to drawing men, most of my times I drew female fashion related design
References help a lot
Thank youu. It already finished though. Posted it in #creative though it's by far not good. Frame was messy and I couldn't fit enough details, even with references.
So today I'll be trying again.
Bulbasaur Line Redesign WIP

Spring Event Art Progress: Day 3

Bruh
nae cool mms pen soon

me at 5am tyvm
Pen soon
when u get ur pen to paint in ms paint soon
mspaint is for the real pros

like fr ive seen people do masterpieces in there and i cant even draw a stickman
I don't think I've ever done art in Ms paint
- no layers
- no opacity
- no pressure sensitivity
i can never-
ive done like, one pikachu
Sounds like one of those YouTube art challenges
That's easy
That's how I work most times
Instead of undoing I just paint over my wrong strokes
I still use undo tho
😳
