holy crap you guys have no clue how complicated it is to do a gradient lace pattern omg 😩 i had fun painting the character and the hair and all of that, but the lace was a struggle and it took me so long to finish it and im really proud/happy with the result :) i feel like the painting is too ...

man its weird looking and some drawing I used to see long ago that I though was really realistic then now when I see them now I just can notice where every brush stroke has taken place and where they started the stroke and where they end

Hey anyone here able to help me get pressure sensitivity working on Photoshop? I just got a Huion H950P tablet today and everything works on it the drivers are installed and settings show pressure sensitivity working, but when I go onto Photoshop with the pen icon on, it just doesn't work and I'm not sure why.

viscid zinc
#

i found a old old drawing i loved it but its just so cringe and bad.

naive crane
#

I've looked on forums and tried to troubleshoot the issue but I'm at a loss

viscid zinc
#

as a mouse drawer idk anything about tablets sorry

mossy leaf
#

also when installing the driver for the tablet you need to search up your exact tablet on the website and install its exact driver software

naive crane
#

Yeah I already did both of those

#

The tablet works fine on its own driver settings when changing sensitivity and I've done different USB ports but Photoshop itself just doesn't like it

#

I restarted the PC and Photoshop multiple times after changes

mossy leaf
#

have you turned off windows ink mode for your pen?

naive crane
#

I did try turning that off and when it didn't work I turned it back on but same result both times

mossy leaf
#

hmmm how strange

naive crane
#

I really can't figure it out

#

I'm not sure if I said it in this chat but I do have a screen tablet that I only use as a second monitor now because it was buggy but I was certain I deleted all old drivers before I ever plugged in the new tablet

#

I can't find any traces left but that's my only final guess as to why it won't function since Photoshop DID work with old tablet

mossy leaf
#

hmmm you maybe its photoshop still trying to use windows ink for your pen

#

even though you have disabled it photoshop might still be using it

#

I have never used photoshop before so I am also quite clueless on why its not registering pen pressure

naive crane
#

I'll see if I can just fiddle around with windows ink settings, I never used it before and might in the future but as of now it could be the problem since it's the only thing I'm not really educated about

#

It's my first non screen tablet so I was bound to have a problem somewhere...

mossy leaf
#

pain

#

if the problem still persists you could try contacting photoshop support or huion support

#

also I am reading that reinstalling the driver for the tablet could fix it, though not sure

naive crane
#

I'll keep trying, thanks for the help!

mossy leaf
#

good luck!

naive crane
#

AHAH I FOUND IT!

#

It was sneaky but I was looking for Windows Ink and found a little shortcut for my old tablet driver settings and it still opens and works!

#

I have to hunt it down now

mossy leaf
#

ooo

#

the hunt is on

naive crane
#

Ugghhh I uninstalled it before so now it is missing files that allow it to uninstall itself correctly?? Now I have to fix it to get rid of it dang

mossy leaf
#

oof

#

that sucks to go through all that effort just to make pen pressure work

naive crane
#

I think my old tablet has been disowned by its creators... There is no longer any place to download the drivers they act like it doesn't exist and never did

#

They only have one product that I don't own that they are pushing like crazy

mossy leaf
#

having a product that is no longer getting any service just sucks

naive crane
#

I just looked it up online and the only thing I could find of its existence is a 2017 review and some other videos talking about it but as for the company, it doesn't exist.

#

I might have the driver disc somewhere but now I have to go to all the trouble of not only finding it but also ask dad if he has that optical drive he bought awhile ago

#

And he'll never let me live it down that discs aren't dead

mossy leaf
#

man if the company no longer exists then their products must have failed hard

naive crane
#

They still exist they just disowned all their creations except 2 types of pen tablets so they only have 2 products on their page. It's UGEE btw it was cheap and for beginners

#

So I could not find the old disc driver... BUT I downloaded Krita and it works perfect there.

#

Photoshop I'm not sure what your problem is but Krita is doing fine

#

It's actually REALLY smooth I like it

mossy leaf
#

huh that is strange then the problem is on photoshops end

#

also glad to see you like the tablet

#

I have a fuckin bone to pick with Adobe, yes.

naive crane
#

What'd they do to you?

upbeat swan
#

It's a startup issue that's linked to the preferences and for the life of me I cannot figure it out. Neither could the 5 other people on the support team work it out too.

#

I'm so close to throwing hands

naive crane
#

Mine won't recognize pressure sensitivity on my new tablet

#

Start up preferences as in when you start it up it doesn't remember your preferences?

#

Or it just won't start up at all?

upbeat swan
#

do you work on PC or Mac?

#

it could be a Windows Ink thing. I've been there.

#

it won't start up because the preferences make it angry so I have to delete them any time I want to open the program

naive crane
#

I'm on Windows 10 yes, Ink doesn't seem to be doing anything though but I can't do much in settings either it looks like

#

Weird, did it just happen all of a sudden or has it been that way?

lemme quickly draw an drawing to show where you could better place the cherry's and the shooting starfruits, it would be easier to draw it and then explain

#

Having all of it aligned to the centre than the right makes it look better, and for the background a dull cyan colour fits the colours yellow and red nicely and is a better background colour than black (any kind of not bright or too dark Cyan colour will do)

if you need anything explained better please do ask

idk I might just have at it with some gradients and try dulling out some of the trees in the middle ground. It's too contrast-y

maybe add more detail to the far far background like a thicker vegetation? idk im not much of a landscape person, thats my friend's zone

#

sadly she went MIA and i havent been in contact

# upbeat swan I drew this today

Maybe with this one, if there are pockets of light pushing through, maybe punch of specs of light for some contrast? Sometimes the saturation of the background color looks a bit even with the other shades of greens, so maybe mix up a few levels of value. Maybe stuff in the foreground can be darker or something like that?

use lighter tones in the back if its misty and use darker more blue tones if its not

working on my first proper art in years

#

thinking about starting to study cars and vehicles because i need to if i want to start a comic

fading sand
#

friendly reminder to not just study your idols art but also your own

#

i drew this

#

then i studied what i liked and didnt like about my process and final product

#

looked into some inpiration (spoiler its mostly mazamuno <3) and restudied my art with my inspiration in mind

#

the art that came after the dog girl portrait was this

mossy leaf
#

Awww such adorable drawings

#

I love them

fading sand
#

ty <3 i worked my brain to the bone to let myself draw in this way

#

studying my own art is a very emotionally tiring process when i already have self hatred SDVpufferthumbsup

#

the thing is that the old art isnt bad its just i wasnt mentally happy with it being my style

#

also im doing some coloring practice but can we talk about the eye i dre for it???

solid stag
#

thats a nice eye

#

i tend to go for very simplistic eyes

#

without the shading the eye is just 2 colors, the purple and the yellow\

fading sand
#

i run circles about coloring eyes because they end up so pretty when i do it right

solid stag
#

heres an unfinished piece but yeah

fading sand
#

prebby

solid stag
#

my style of shading varies on the art but i really like the shading on that first one i did because its simple but effective

#

my favorite artist right now is fruiteggs on tumblr (they do a lot of homestuck) and their painting style is very colorful but also gritty

#

blood // like damn i wish i was this good

#

their tumblr

#

just a general tw for their blog, it has a lot of drug and blood on it and generally upsetting images

fading sand
#

wait im missing something

#

#

I like it better for the lashes to stay sharp and unblurred, but the eyes getting blurred looks so good now

#

So pretty and fantasy looking

fading sand
#

i like blurred lashes to much to leave them unblurred

#

it softens up so nicely

#

i only use sharp lashes for dramatic appearance

#

also hair coloring <3

#

btw not open for critism atm im already mentally out of it

#

oh my god im sorry i sent my message the same time you did

fading sand
#

its alright, i completely understand

#

thank you <3

solid stag
#

dont use tone indicators around me, they dont really work haha

fading sand
#

oh -

solid stag
#

i respect you making sure that you didnt offend me

fading sand
#

i have issues with tone so i always get yelled at for not reading it, so i can understand indicators not working for some people

solid stag
#

im extremely monotone with practically no filter but every time i try to put tone into my voice it just comes off as forced

fading sand
#

i cant control my volume very well and it messes with my tone all the time

#

i sound either like im mad, having a panic attack, or about to laugh

solid stag
#

i have issues with volume (apparently) because my mom always tells me to quiet down

#

its mostly because of how i process stimuli, specifically hearing things

#

im semi verbal, i talk when its quiet but other than that if i cant hear myself i wont talk (or i will try to and fail miserabley)

fading sand
#

i have an auditory processing disorder and psychoses that works with sound so im either not hearing actual words or im hearing something talking to me that isnt real

#

oh im also selective mute ! :)

Oh man...that sounds like a nightmare drawing in the car. I would've gotten super sick too cause my motion sickness is pretty bad.

Did not want to spam #creative channel so putting this here. A lot of work goes into my art when soemone wants color accuracy on their character, or, if I just don't have the colors I need to finish something traditionally.

This is my latest art trade without my traditional line work.

Everything was done with my mouse, as per usual, as a drawing tablet just is not in my budget. You can see both my traditional lines as well as finished product in creative ^_^

i find the pressure sensitivity to be funky at times

and i think thats just the ipad limits, i have done digital art on a computer for the longest time so the pressure sensitivity is different since well. ipads are more general and i have an ipad that isnt specifically targeted to artists

i do like how easy it is to navigate but its just a bit limited to what im used to

Thats fair i enjoy procreates simplicity personally too many menus overloads my brain

thats very valid, fireaplaca would be a good starting place to digital art on a computer since its simple menu and interface is easy enough to learn

theres a lot of features and even more on the asset store to download so you can get carried away with the brushes instead of learning the program

Hello peoples :)))
I have a little challenge for you
Its totally up to you if u wanna do it or not I just found it pretty fun
So
You have to use pens, no pencil sketches beforehand, you put all your pens in a bag and mix them, then randomly select 3
And you have to use those 3 to make a drawing!
But
If you put them down
You can't use that color anymore

Here's mine!

everyone's so talented SDVpufferwow

#

Ty! ❤💗💞

#

I bet ur really talented too! :)))

echo mesa
#

tfw you dont know where your pens are

#

if i jumble my stylus for my phone in with pens does it count

exotic snow
#

i dont have trad pens

#

(rules i assume would become: pick 3 random colours using a generator, no undoing, no erasing)

echo mesa
#

my three pens !

Hm, if you do a random color generator it may work!

marble mantle
thorny hill
#

maybe i should name my brushes SDVpufferpain

marble mantle
#

naming them is fun for me

wraith epoch
#

Some of my brushes are from clip studios asset section, but I have no clue what they are called as they are all in Japanese

marble mantle
#

the default names are yucky
especially when its in some foreign language that i cant read

wraith epoch
#

I had never thought of renaming them, but thats actually smart

thorny hill
#

yeah same i have so many downloaded ones that i have no idea what they actually r

deft patrol
#

And now I am officially starting

exotic snow
#

i used to rename my brushes but now that i want to remember which ones they were i dont anymore

exotic snow

I use a system of naming brushes like...."ass brush.....flowery brush...... I don't have a concept but somehow I still know what brush it is

I don’t draw cute stuff and this was my first one

#

So sorry

scenic wedge

its very cute
my only thoughts is, try it in the size it will be used (i.e. pfp size) and see if there are some sizes you want to tweak for visibility

vapid fog

Yea Procreate resizing sucks

#

how to color

Okay, I can help

coarse dove
#

but its hard to mix, like, color

vapid fog
#

Paints

#

Or pencil

coarse dove
#

so it looks good

coarse dove
vapid fog
#

So colour pencil

#

Just make an outline of your drawing

#

And lightly on the inner-edge

#

Colour it

#

Then make it thicker and thicker

#

Amaryn

coarse dove
#

hm

vapid fog
#

I didn’t know it was you

exotic snow
#

Jas in SDV said the trick is to colour darker near the edges 😌

exotic snow

and theres also this part

vapid fog

vapid fog
exotic snow
#

cute!

vapid fog
coarse dove
vapid fog
#

Dark brown

#

And a lighter shade of brown to colour in

coarse dove
#

idk if i should draw a dark green outline or a brown one

coarse dove
vapid fog
#

For stem if it’s brown inside light brown and dark outline

#

And connect the leaf

exotic snow
vapid fog
#

I do more of digital art

exotic snow
#

do brown near the ends

coarse dove
#

idk, but i want it to be a bit more simplistic

I really like your artwork

upbeat swan
#

thanks, fam!

marble mantle
#

istg my art jumps around so much
one week im like "fuck cell shading"
and the other im like "fucking painting"

exotic snow
#

i dont do cell shading anymore and i think im getting comfortable where i am rn Smile

upbeat swan
#

that's a real mood. I feel like I never settle on one thing

marble mantle
#

idk what kinda shading im doing
its kinda like
apinting but not really but im relying on pressure opacity a lot

exotic snow
#

opacity is the king of all settings marshalclap

vapid fog
#

Yours is a good inspiration

marble mantle
#

what do you call this?

upbeat swan
#

idk what I draw I just draw;;; but thank you

upbeat swan
exotic snow
marble mantle
#

even with me trying a more flat comicy style i still end up putting all my colour on one layer

upbeat swan
#

sometimes it's like that

marble mantle
#

kinda creepy ngl

exotic snow
#

flat comicy styles are basically just - fill tool, clipping mask

vapid fog
marble mantle
#

i want
to render
like sam

#

i would kiss his art if i could

#

i would smooch his art so hard

#

not even the drawing portion of it
the way he renders is just so sexy i want to cry

vapid fog
#

Looks like something out of a Disney movie art

exotic snow
#

i might be a dumb beech but what actually is rendering

vapid fog
#

I don’t like it cause of the water

upbeat swan
#

I get in the mood to do a flat colored piece but then there's always this one area of the drawing that begs to be shaded.

marble mantle
#

rendering is basically just
finishing your piece

vapid fog
#

Doesn’t match up with lighting

upbeat swan
#

So I try cel shading it and suddenly I find another area that needs to be painterly and whoops my hand slips

#

I'd say the lighting matches linkshrug

marble mantle
#

people normally say rendering when talking about painted stuff
but it can be used for cell shaded stuff too

vapid fog
marble mantle
#

its so simple
yet you can tell exactly what its supposed to be

upbeat swan
vapid fog
#

Angle though

exotic snow
#

imo the light is a warm yellowish colour so hue shifting the “normal” blue pond water to green is a nice decision

vapid fog
#

But it’s good overall

upbeat swan
#

honestly tho, lighting is difficult. It's best to have a photo reference

#

angle's fine!

vapid fog
#

Yes I see

marble mantle
#

sam is a god at lighting
its one of the main reasons i followed him in the first place

vapid fog
#

I don’t draw much of cartoony realistic

#

So my opinion is shit

upbeat swan
#

organic stuff like plants/water is easy to fudge the perspective. Buildings, cars, and anything with clear angles is where it gets difficult.

marble mantle
#

its so simple and yet so sexy

upbeat swan
#

everyone can see though. You don't need to be a musician to tell if music is bad. You don't need to be an artist to tell if something's off about a picture.

marble mantle
#

^^^

#

i hate that so many people dont understand that
sometimes something is just objectively bad but then you'll have someone say "if its so bad why dont you do it better??"

vapid fog
marble mantle
#

the day i can render like sam is the day i can die happily

upbeat swan
#

I feel like they have a lot of good photos of lighting examples to work from, so it's not impossible!

thorny hill
#

aghh i love sams art sm

#

his rendering is so nice

marble mantle
#

ikr

#

i watch his how to render skin videos over and over

#

hoping the skill will come through the pc and into my body

thorny hill
#

LOL

#

i like his brushwork too SDVpuffereyes

marble mantle
#

same

#

its just the regular hard round brush and the smudge tool

#

the brush i used for my latest piece is actually from his brush set

thorny hill
#

it seems like he uses a comb brush too to add a abstract effect which is neat

#

also i need to check out his brush setSDVpufferD

marble mantle
#

its on his patreon

thorny hill
#

oo thanku!!

marble mantle
#

the main brush set is sending
gimmie a min my wifi is down bad

frigid halo
#

If you can also, I draw a shitton of trees to figure out how value works, but don’t try to spend too much time on each. I also do pleine air painting sometimes if I can. The tricky thing about painting live is that the lighting and temperature changes frequently if you sit in a place too long. But I think with the lighting values are very important figure out. I use the hard brush quite a bit to figure out how to control edge control and the like.

#

I hope what I’m saying isn’t a mouthful lol

marble mantle
#

never heard of pleine air painting before

frigid halo
marble mantle
#

ew

#

I wish I can demo how I set mine up with traditional paintings

#

sam actually made a video about unsolicited criticism and why it can harm someones mental state

#

hang on let me get it

marble mantle
#

oh yeah ive seen it

thorny hill
#

ive worked a ton on traditional art but it was mainly all charcoal work because paint is so darn expensive

marble mantle
#

wait gimmie a sec

frigid halo
thorny hill
#

but charcoal is amazing if u want to learn abt values, lighting, and even edges if u make a transition to painting

frigid halo
fading sand
#

heres the video <3

marble mantle
#

watching sam paint is just
ugh
so relaxing

fading sand
frigid halo
#

I forgot to mention about pleine aire painting, I usually like working with limited colors so that it’s a bit less hectic to pick colors and I guess understand to mix neutral colors..

marble mantle
#

i have some of his painting processes too cause i got his patreon
i dont mind sharing is peeps wanna see

fading sand
#

i make it a point to either ask if someone is open to criticism or just not say anything if they didnt already state that theyre open to it

marble mantle
#

same

fading sand
#

because i know i would feel like shit if someone just starts criticizing my stuff without asking

marble mantle
#

but personally
i dont care much when it comes to me
if someone gives criticism without me asking its just eh

#

if its good then
thank them for helping me
if its bad then i just ignore it and go about my day

fading sand
#

i have a very influenced mind and it can really ruin my day if im not in a good mental state

upbeat swan
fading sand
#

sorry if it came off rude/srs

marble mantle
#

im dead inside
my heart is a rock
so insults bounce off me

#

especially if its from some random on the internet

upbeat swan
marble mantle
#

on the other hand
i have received twitter validation
i am now a real artist

fading sand
#

i can definitely understand that nonartists can still give proper critique and opinion, but i personally think unless you know how they can try and fix it (even if its just saying "i dont think the background lighting blends well with the foreground" it can help a bit)

upbeat swan
#

it sucks, but people suck too...

#

imo the best way to promote the value of a good critique is to be patient and give people proper critiques if they ask.

fading sand
#

so basically what im saying i guess is that unless you can pinpoint what you find strange dont really say anything?? idk if this makes any sense

marble mantle
#

i mean
as an artist
when you put yourstuff out there
its gonna be seen by non artist

#

and non artist have the ability to see if something is objectively good or not

upbeat swan
#

you don't get very far when you start telling people how they should react. Lead by example instead.

marble mantle
#

and they can point it out

frigid halo
marble mantle
#

theres a different between just pointing something out and being mean

fading sand
#

if nobody is asking for critique and you come onto my page with unsolicited advice i will be deleting what you said

upbeat swan
#

unsolicited critiques suck ass tbh

#

and people that do that can heck off

#

I'd delete the comment too.

fading sand
#

consent is important in all scenarios is what im saying

marble mantle
#

i havent gotten a lot

frigid halo
fading sand
#

i think im going to put in my bios to not critique unless asked because common sense isnt that common

upbeat swan
#

When it comes to doing art for other people, there comes to a point when your vision as an artist is overruled by what the client wants 🙃
It fucking sucks, but then again when you get assignments sometimes it's best not to get too personally attached.

#

Lowkey hate it, but sometimes I'm just a pair of hands creating art...

frigid halo
#

commission me , kthxbye bye lol

marble mantle
#

to some extent
i feel like you have to be prepared for stuff like that if youre gonna put your work out there

upbeat swan
#

yeahhh

fading sand
#

im okay with critique for assignments but if im just doing what i want from my art, fuck off or get your comment deleted

marble mantle
#

it might suck but
dont put too much value in what people say
cause if youre gonna put your work out there people are gonna talk

fading sand
#

the way my brain works is incredibly influenced by things because of my psychoses

upbeat swan
#

to nae's point, someone's always gonna be a negative jerk. Someone's always gonna hate your stuff, but someone else is gonna love everything about it.

fading sand
#

this ^^

#

if someones gonna be a negative nanny on my post they get deleted

#

if they continue its a hard block <3

upbeat swan
#

one person's opinion is just one person's opinion. Take random internet people's comment with a grain of salt.

fading sand
#

i take note of all bitches on my page 😊

marble mantle
#

sounds like work to me
if i get a negative comment id just leave it there and use it as fuel

frigid halo
marble mantle

#

i have to get rid of stuff like that because, once again my psychoses makes my brain very sensitive to influence

frigid halo
#

bitches got to eat

upbeat swan
#

people are allowed to have their opinions, but I usually just leave it unanswered so they look like a fuckin clown.

marble mantle
#

exactly

#

not responding or acting on hate comments is the best response

#

a lot of times people do it simply to get a rise out of you

upbeat swan
#

they just look like lil crybabies alone in their corner

fading sand
#

deleting is like shadow action

#

its not very public unless they make it public

frigid halo
#

yea...don’t give idiots a platform is all I can say, you’re not paid enough to police whiny piss babies about their feefees

fading sand
#

which makes them look like a fucking clown

upbeat swan
#

imo the best thing to do with anyone like that is to ignore to make it crystal clear that you couldn't possibly give less of a shit about their tiny insignificant comment

fading sand
#

that may work for others but i have to get rid of it because influence

upbeat swan
#

just delete it

marble mantle
#

ive had people say shit about my art mid conversation
im not about to stop my whole convo to reply to em

#

i grew a tough skin cause of life

#

people cant say anything new to me because my brain already does it for me <3

no action is sometimes the best action

Tumblr used to be different. SDVpufferpensive

lofty dirge
#

Indeed

#

Same for dev art

vernal nexus
#

Oh deviantArt... what have you become

#

I used to meet so many likeminded people there who liked to do photography and draw. Now it's all kinky shit SDVpufferpensive

#

ive never browsed through dev art PensiveCold wish i wouldve seen its better days at least

vernal nexus
#

I still have an account there from 2007 (I think?)

#

It's a shame because it used to be a fun place.

#

I did some random sketches on it lol, but used dev just to follow a game developer

#

but my account has spiders, scorpions and a lot of dust ever since 201..6?

#

I can't even remember it

#

If Instagram had a decent to use website and didn't require the app, I wouldn't be so sad about devArt not being a thing anymore... but it's so hard to showcase art on IG

#

facts

#

reason why so many people run on twitter

#

it actually got better than any other app at sharing art

#

I think

#

When I used Twitter my shit just got stolen without credit SDVpuffersob

#

you inspire to not be lazy again

#

because hell I foking am

marble mantle
#

it also doesnt kill the quality as bad as insta does

exotic snow
#

Recently I've considered going offline permanent for art and just do it for fun

marble mantle
#

and im not forced to use a square

exotic snow
#

But then you know... I hesitate

lofty dirge
#

!!!!

#

all valid

#

Why can't insta let you post pictures on any size

#

not squares

marble mantle
#

just didnt feel it

lofty dirge
#

but again, it was designed to be a photography app

marble mantle
#

but then i saw beautiful pic of pretty boy and i just had to draw it even tho i fucked up his face

lofty dirge
#

you're pretty

#

and your art

vernal nexus
#

Yeah I agree, nae, the IG format is awful, the quality is better on Twitter and you can showcase the entire piece and upload from website or app. It iiis kinda better for sharing art.

#

But photography doesn't need to be square... usually it's rectangly :c

lofty dirge
#

and that

marble mantle
#

honestly
it doesnt matter where you post
if someone wants to steal your art theyre going to
its just easier to steal on twitter

vernal nexus
#

Ye true

marble mantle
#

but i download art from insta all the time
not to steal or anything
just to look at and study

exotic snow
#

and the IG algorithm is just- infuriating sometimes

#

my reach has dropped more than half bc i havent been posting consistently

#

it's just stressful so i give up on that

vernal nexus
#

Also true :( you can't really see new stuff when IG just gives you the things with a million likes already.
