art-discussion-and-wip

[willow cosmos]

I'm wondering that bc I want to use a white marker to actually correct some mistakes I did during coloration

[floral saffron]

First real Vita render test

Gotta adjust some color correction settings but it's looking very promising. The only problem is my GPU suffering

[zinc crown]

what do you mean that map is broken

[buoyant sky]

Hm, if you only want to use the white then I would say go for molotow
I googled the set and the markers don't have a brush tip, and while I reccomend trying acrylic markers as a medium cuz they're so fun, without a brush tip you'll be quite limited

I use poscas and they're so much fun, but I mostly use them for backgrounds, patterns and stuff, since they don't have a brush tip and are quite hard to control bc of that

[willow cosmos]

I see, I guess I did will by ordering a 1mm tip instead

[buoyant sky]

Gg

Why is this a discussion channel but most of the time ppl are just posting their artworks 😭😭

People used to actually talk about drawing here those three years ago

[lethal forum]

Hey, I remember that.

[willow cosmos]

Thanks

Welp I was fortunate enough to find a marker with 1mm tip, otherwise eeh

[willow cosmos]

I'm too impatient to test those color pencils too

[lethal forum]

I personally test my new pencil with this creation.

[willow cosmos]

Which set and brand ?

[lethal forum]

Faber-Castell. I got them for a low price, at Teddy a new market in my town. Well, It's a German brand so fair for me that's it's in this new market belonging to a German brand too. Lol.

[willow cosmos]

Teddy, didn't know that one

Fair enough, Faber-Castell is really great

I have their breadcrumb eraser

Polychromos cost a ton from normal art supppliers shop ☠️☠️

I'm going Ohuhu for this one

That brand is always cooking

[lethal forum]

It's recent, honestly the Action for art mat and interior decoration.

[floral saffron]

Lots of props and buildings are missing

Like, A LOT

Pillars too

Comparison

Same happened with the "The Deep" map. The difference was that "The Deep" map was just a mess. Lots of stuff were on the wrong place, and I just needed to move stuff to their place

This one is just broken

[willow cosmos]

Damn

[floral saffron]

Anyway, here is a Vita render I made. I'm not convinced on how the background blends with the character, but still, is a great improvement since my last Phosphorus render

[woeful shore]

Wait... Isn't that what this channel used for? Like... The fanart are for... Well, Honkai fanart and this one for legit anything else if yer feeling like sharing?

[woeful shore]

Also... Hot damn....

[lethal forum]

It look so good ! Otto is among the best antagonist of Honkai 3rd.

[split hemlock]

Innocent cutie ❤️😇

[split hemlock]

Thank ya

[willow cosmos]

@lethal forum I wouldn't be wrong if this beige is more like close to E194 right ?

[lethal forum]

HUm... I suppose.

[willow cosmos]

I see

Well I tried something else

See DMs btw

If you don't mind

[slate rose]

my 3rd attempt at animation without watching any tutorials

[willow cosmos]

@lethal forum @buoyant sky I just received my pencil colors, now I just wait for my white acrylic marker.

Time to level up the coloration

[willow cosmos]

Yeeee

I just begun the swatch, I have to go for sport session though now

[lethal forum]

[willow cosmos]

Crazy rich colors

☠️☠️ 36€ color pencils

[lethal forum]

[willow cosmos]

Ok lmfao I'm really gonna enjoy this experiment lmfao

Look at that swatch lmao

[austere coral]

Wip luna

[lethal forum]

So freaking awesome!

[willow cosmos]

Daaamn

[austere coral]

Also i made timelapse too...hehe

[willow cosmos]

I never make timelapses, might bc I don't have the material to film from an higher pov

[austere coral]

@willow cosmos i hope you can do someday if you want...anyway i using stand holder phone and table lamp for lighting

[willow cosmos]

@austere coral If I may ask, to colorize a tongue a red or a pink tone would be the best fit right ?

[austere coral]

For me....pink is better for tounge also give them red for gradient

[willow cosmos]

Thanks, welp I was doing some tests rn

Yeah, I guess a mix of both would be better

[austere coral]

Ooh nice mixing

[willow cosmos]

What a combo though, alcohol markers and oil based color pencil

[willow cosmos]

Thanks OwO

[austere coral]

Best match....i use it too markers and oil color pencil

[austere coral]

You're welcome

[willow cosmos]

Ngl the final result might go crazy

[austere coral]

Anyway i use this for white paper....if i use cardboard paper i use acrylic marker because alcohol marker not good for cardboard

[willow cosmos]

If you want to see the full thing currently I gotta hit DMs though, putting the whole image might go against rules

[willow cosmos]

Eeh yeah alcohol markers loves having heavy-weight papers

Cardboard one seems really light

[willow cosmos]

@austere coral @lethal forum @buoyant sky

[lethal forum]

Don't look at me that way Thelema.

[willow cosmos]

Lmao ya didn't see the mouth

[austere coral]

me to thelema : don't look at me like that

anyway waiting for full version

[willow cosmos]

You know you can hit my DMs to see the whole drawing right ? I'm just not posting it fully here bc it might go against the rules of the server

[austere coral]

You have instagram,hoyolab or tiktok...if you have...you can dm me....then i follow you

[willow cosmos]

I do have Instagram and Hoyolab

[austere coral]

It's fine...dm you instagram and hoyolab then i follow you...hehe

[lethal forum]

So quick sketch of Seele making bubble.

[austere coral]

Waiting the final result ❤️

[lethal forum]

Thanks.

[lethal forum]

[austere coral]

hehe you did it

[lethal forum]

Indeed.

[floral saffron]

YOOOOOO THAT ALREADY LOOKS SICK AF

[sage canopy]

hopefully the actual fight animation looks cooler

[split hemlock]

Dudes starting to piss me off

[willow cosmos]

It's finally here

[torn girder]

Why not post in #honkai-fan-art ?

[hidden timber]

this took too long bruh

[slate rose]

im gonna send this video here real quick cuz I cant send it in other servers due to size constraint

[mossy flume]

$25 commission I just finished the other night

[main wren]

damn, you should charge more

[hollow grail]

^

[slate rose]

Really?

I made this for a discord nitro

[main wren]

believe me, I have seen way lower tier work going for more

that being said also don't confuse piece complexity with artistic cohesion, some styles look simpler but have incredible sense of style

[slate rose]

I still haven't got paid with this one

[main wren]

that owl is A grade stuff

[silk heart]

How do you get paid for commissions, I'd love to commission you

But well
With
Actual pay

[slate rose]

Idk how international transaction works

[silk heart]

I agree, definitely way to little pay for what the art is

[slate rose]

How do you get paid internationally

[silk heart]

Uhh. Usually PayPal I think?

I dunno

[slate rose]

I heard that has some pricy tax

[silk heart]

It does

But that's how I pay artists normally

[main wren]

so that picture, while it is great is also something of a losing proposition for you, that's the cover of a like the anniversary edition of a comic so whatever time is invested in something like that should be considered strategic loss for showing off

[silk heart]

"artists"
I've only commissioned 2 people lmao

[main wren]

that's S-tier

seriously, you're getting robbed for 25 dollars on the owl, with that kind of work I've seen people get 100 dollars

[slate rose]

Man

I'm eating instant ramen and some chips

[main wren]

your current weakness is your lack of visibility, people would kick down your door for that kind of skill

[silk heart]

Wait you got a Ko-Fi, can you get like
Tips from that? How does it work?

[main wren]

do you have an online portfolio or some kind of commission portal?

[silk heart]

[slate rose]

I dunno I just made one in hopes of it doing something

[slate rose]

I just recently made a Twitter account

[silk heart]

Well, I've for sure paid some peeps on Kofi before, for mouse cursors lmao

[slate rose]

Tho as expected I'm not really getting much engagement

[main wren]

also seriously [redacted] paypal right in the eyes, I hate it, everyone hates it, find something else

[slate rose]

No one seems to like using it

[silk heart]

Most of the people I know who got busy online took like
6 years to get it going...

[main wren]

unfortunately you are too late to that party, it's not worthless to have a twitter but you might want to have a Bluesky too and maybe a mastodon

[slate rose]

I don't know those two

[silk heart]

Let's test KoFi tipping

[main wren]

I am not up to date when it comes to posting on Pixiv so I am not sure what you need to do to put your work up there but spend 20 minutes checking that and you'll see you're starting off in the top 10% of people

[slate rose]

Oh yeah pixiv exists

[main wren]

Bluesky is like Twitter if it was run by people doing their jobs

[slate rose]

I should start posting there

[main wren]

not sure if it is still invite only

[silk heart]

Interesting.. sending tips on KoFi just gives me an error

[main wren]

Mastodon is also like twitter but smaller but also I can almost guarantree more real people and less theft of your work

[slate rose]

Oh is that the web thats run by a community of artists that requires you to like achieved something to get verified

[silk heart]

This guy knows his stuff!

[main wren]

I am terminally online

[slate rose]

I've just been posting art in discord until like a month ago when I decided to expand to other social media

[main wren]

I would say you should think about setting up a patreon or something in the future but only if you have real motion, they still come looking for your cash so you'd best be sure you can get people to pay you

[slate rose]

Still gonna find an alternative to paypal

[main wren]

oh you should

[slate rose]

Otherwise I'm paying bigger taxes

[main wren]

Paypal is the devil

[slate rose]

@silk heart

This you?

[main wren]

maybe artists do know of a better option that the community keeps tabs on to make sure people know when they are being screwed over

[silk heart]

huh, dont think so, maybe

i kept getting an error

unless they took like 20$ off me

[slate rose]

This is probably it then

[silk heart]

HOLD ON IM TESTING THE TIPPING

IT WORKS

[main wren]

also discords can be good but they can also be a nightmare for you if you aren't keeping an eye on things, the internet is full of crazies

[silk heart]

[slate rose]

It lead me to this

[silk heart]

odd, then yes that was me

[slate rose]

It gave me spam alerts then congrats lol

[silk heart]

did you at least get my tip

[slate rose]

Oh yes I did indeed get the email of the tip

[silk heart]

so that's one.. odd way to pay for commissions i guess

[slate rose]

How do you convert this tho

[silk heart]

good question

[slate rose]

Kofi is like i dunno it just feels like if Patreon wanted to be twitter

Or something

[main wren]

so what is your personal style? you might be able to wrangle more eyes on your work by doing some other pieces that have larger fandoms, the algo is either your enemy or your friend but it won't help you if you don't make it

[silk heart]

it sorta is

well
if you figure out how it works, id love to commission

but for now, im gonna go back to my j*b

[slate rose]

Not sure if I have a style, I just draw whatever that I feel interested on

[slate rose]

Oki thanks for the tip

[silk heart]

WAITWIAT QAIT

OH NOO

IT GAVE ME UOUR ENTIRE EMAIL AND YOUR FULL NAME IN AN EMAIL

[main wren]

that's valid but you should think about ways you can add your own flavour to things, like if you take an image from something you like and remake it but using your own kind of art

[silk heart]

Massive breach of privacy

[main wren]

also FIX THAT

HOLY JESUS

that's your priority

[silk heart]

Also, I'm sure they also received my full name too

[slate rose]

O i haven't read my email yet

[main wren]

fix that too

[slate rose]

I just saw a notification

[main wren]

both of you

the internet is big and full of crazies

[silk heart]

Crazy..?

[main wren]

I SHOULD KNOW I AM ONE OF THEM

[silk heart]

I was crazy once...

[slate rose]

Oh I'm using my non personal email

[slate rose]

I mean I still have a lot of games linked to this email so I should probably change that

@main wren ah PayPal leaked it

Not kofi

[main wren]

told you, paypal is the worst

[slate rose]

I can see the problem now

[main wren]

that's your priority for the minute, I think, eliminating paypal from your life

every time I have tried to use it was a nightmare and every time I was going to buy something and it said use paypal I knew it was a scam

[slate rose]

Damn

That's kinda shit

[main wren]

it's a shit service

[slate rose]

High tax rates too

[main wren]

made by the worst people in the world

they call it the Paypal mafia for a reason

[silk heart]

Tried to see if we can change PayPal names, can't
They will request you to send verifying documents to make sure it's you

Like IDs n stuff

[main wren]

I hate doing that for a real bank

[slate rose]

Also not ideal since PayPal forces you to link a visa card or similar

[silk heart]

Yep

Well then

Nothing to do about it, guess a buncha peeps have my real name now and I never realized

[slate rose]

Well its a good thing I have no idea what yo do with this information

But I still need to find a better alternative

What other international banking do people even use

[silk heart]

Unless you switch to a business account apparently

[main wren]

real name is bad but it can be way worse, I would say seriously consider cancelling any card attached to the account

[slate rose]

PayPal business is confusing

[silk heart]

Don't care enough, I'm going back to work
My name isn't really private anyway

[slate rose]

My mom's name is registered in mine cuz I don't have a valid ID yet

Its also a visa card she barely use

So

I'm using it

[main wren]

I would say at least monitor it, you're probably fine but complacency is what gets you

[silk heart]

I agree

For me, I don't use it much

But for you, you will

[slate rose]

PayPal took almost a dollar off

[main wren]

they sure did

[silk heart]

Yikes

[slate rose]

That 5 dollar

[silk heart]

THATS CRAZY

[main wren]

Paypal Mafia, friend

[slate rose]

Pyramid scheme

[main wren]

might not be perfect but Reddit would be a decent place to ask other artists how they got into commissions and what processors do the least to screw you over

[silk heart]

[slate rose]

I'll go sleep first it's 2 am

[main wren]

probably best

[slate rose]

@silk heart @main wren okay so PayPal has this shitty thing called holding money

Where if you're new or haven't sold anything for a while they don't give you your money until 21 days later

[silk heart]

hey! youre getting 5 (4$) in 21 days!

[slate rose]

They also take 2 dollars foe just getting a code to verify the card is yours, it does get refunded if it its verified but that's just ass bro

[silk heart]

[slate rose]

I'll have to wair 21 days just to withdraw that 4 dollars

[silk heart]

damn shoulda sent you more to make it worth it

[slate rose]

Naur you help me test PayPal anyways which I was planning to just didn't find a partner willing

[silk heart]

[hollow grail]

Been using paypal for comms

IIRC they charge varied fees depending on if it's domestic vs international, and fixed fee based on currency paid etc.

For a commission of $600 they took around $22

And yea name and email are visible on invoice

So long as you aren't charging low amounts it's fine

I think the biggest issue I have with it is they usually favour the buyer over the seller when it comes to disputes so there's horror stories of artists getting scammed via chargebacks even if they actually did the comm

[slate rose]

Seems like you're still loosing a lot of you charge large

22 dollar cut is crazy

[hollow grail]

Yea it's slightly worse than stripe

I forget if the fixed fee is like $0.30 or $0.45 but it's definitely more noticeable if you are charging lower amounts like 1-2 digit

[slate rose]

There's also a partnership fee

[hollow grail]

not if you're individual seller

shouldn't bother with business acc unless you're actually running company

[slate rose]

I think it's for the kofi fee

It took like 0.50 ish for fee then there's another 0.20 for something called partnership

[hollow grail]

yea not too familiar on withdrawing from kofi side

[slate rose]

It it left me with just 4.2 dollars from that 5 dollar donation

[main wren]

that sucks but I am pretty sure you will be seeing the same with a patreon

[silk heart]

Big corpos gotta get they mons

[split hemlock]

Otto, I love you but that fit is NOT it

[willow cosmos]

I somehow built up the motivation to begin the coloration of the hair

The color could be better but I don't a lighter color in my set

Happily I still have my colored pencils to light it up

[main wren]

the eyes are really good

[willow cosmos]

Thanks ^^

I gotta say, alcohol markers and oil colored pencils are such a wonderful duo

[main wren]

never used them so I will take your word for it

an odd number of artists have this weird thing with colouring the eyes flatly

[willow cosmos]

Here how it looks at daylight for the eyes

[main wren]

looks a lot better in natural light

[willow cosmos]

OwO For real

[west moss]

the rendering is very nice!

[main wren]

just curious are there people who do commissions on here or majority hobbyist/profession artists

[mint arrow]

I just draw for the sake of it

wouldn’t even feel comfortable doing comissions with my current skills

[hollow grail]

I do comms but I'm on hiatus for a month due to irl stuff

[silk heart]

Life always gets busy
Last artist I commissioned got busy for half a year before they started on my commission

[main wren]

the tragedy of the commission artist, they are usually always on the hook for something else and freelance their work

[main wren]

also I am down for getting a commission if people are up for linking me their work because I thought of something I want

[mint arrow]

Bronya sketch

[mint arrow]

Bronya WIP

[mint arrow]

added an outline and made lines thicker closer to the viewer and where things should be in shadow (I decided that the light source comes from right, slightly towards camera, a bit above)

[rare hamlet]

expression still needs so much tweaking but she’s getting there

i can’t decide if i wanna make her look scary or cutesy…

[mint arrow]

laid down base colours (with no regards to light shadow) for orientation

next step later 🍜

[rare hamlet]

i’m going for cutesy

[cyan gyro]

W?

[slate rose]

True to your name

[mint arrow]

I prefer Adam × Bronya, but you did good imho

[onyx breach]

new finished com

[main wren]

who is it?

[fresh bay]

durandal i guess

[main wren]

then why is everything floating?

[willow cosmos]

Magical ?

[willow cosmos]

I'm more of a hobbyist, wouldn't do comissions simply bc I just have literally no time for that due to my job

[stone hemlock]

Some improvement since Sep 2025 till today ig

[modest venture]

Really cool to see how you've seemingly evolved to approach drawing eyes a bit differently. I really like the vibe of the current piece 💖
It's always super interesting to see progress of other artists over the years 💖

[stone hemlock]

Tysm!! My art style can be pretty inconsistent, but my pen work is roughly the same :)) I thought the only difference was just that I started to color lol

[hollow grail]

nice improvement

[modest venture]

You're very welcome 💖 sometimes we improve in ways we don't even quite notice. For me your lines have become much more confident in the newest picture, so keep it up 💖💖 looking forward to seeing more (if you feel comfortable sharing ofc)

[mint arrow]

added lights and shadows and erased some of the outline

[soft kestrel]

Haiooo frennn didn't know you were here to

Something I wont get to work on for a while

Probably wont recognize me by my discord name Ginko

[austere coral]

wait...you one of drawing topaz from my request in ig right ?

[soft kestrel]

YAAAAA

[austere coral]

hehe finally we meet here...hehe
sorry i didn't realize it was you because your DC name an IG name is different

[soft kestrel]

Good good, I try to make sure I am unidentifiable

But yaa

Im not on here often tho

I swear your art and thought "WAIT I KNOW HIMM"

[stone hemlock]

Better comparison (for the coloring of the old one, I used my other old artworks as reference to how I picked colors and shaded)

[mint arrow]

Bronya, tried paint something at night time

[mint arrow]

does anyone have any tips on backgrounds? this is roughly what I have in mind, and I want Bronya to walk towards that tower

also how does on make the water pond look like water, it doesn’t look quite right, but I don’t know exactly why

[mint arrow]

aw, man, I should have made the resolution bigger, she’ll have to be pixel art now

[lethal forum]

The most important thing with water is the idea of making it look like it's deep, so yeah, shadowing is the key part of it. Also, make it a little bit less like one big stain 🫟 but more like multiples stains on a place it will probably make it look more like something that is liquid and can easily move.

[mint arrow]

oh! thx!
then I’ll have to see, that I’ll make it look more like water with shading

[slate rose]

Hard to explain

The water is only like 3 layers

4th one for hard details

Use Multiply and overlay for shades and highlights respectively

Lean towards green/blue green colors

Rather than just blue

Water with some foliage in it has an almost jade-like glow

[willow cosmos]

That makes me think I need to finish my Thelema coloration

[mint arrow]

thank you! this gives me an insight, hopefully I’ll be able to achieve it with a large body of water far away… will have to think of something

[mint arrow]

I approach it with just an overlay layer and painting on top with a wet brush

[mint arrow]

Bronya and… was-supposed-to-be-Seele (yeah, I should have looked at her before drawing too), cause why not

[split hemlock]

Already hate it 🙏😭

[lethal forum]

Ouah ! I like the colouring !

[split hemlock]

I'll prob leave him shirtless and will just blend in his lower half bc his shirt sucks 😭

[lethal forum]

Oh my ! Good luck !

[split hemlock]

No way I am dealing with his stupid ass striped shirt

I already gave him loose hair and broken mask bc Idk

[lethal forum]

You can do it.

Sometimes, 🫣I'm thinking that I'm lucky to create simple design. People that want to attack me in an Artfight, don't have to bother with complexity.

[split hemlock]

Ngl I won't, he's hot, leaving it out won't be a problem ig 😊

[split hemlock]

He is tho 😭

[lethal forum]

More a Welt fan, but yes he is.

[split hemlock]

Look at my pfp, welt and void archives. I stan all three 😭 (also we getting off topic woops)

[lethal forum]

[split hemlock]

Bro, now looking at the fanart and it looks more like VA than OA and I am annoyed 😭

[lethal forum]

So one of my character.

[slate rose]

@silk heart @main wren

I can finally acess that 5 dollar donation

But if I want to transfer it to my local wallet I'd have to pay yet another a 1% fee

And it has to be a minimum of 10 dollars worth of transfer

[silk heart]

i cant believe this

[slate rose]

Mhmm yes I love my money being stolen

No wonder people prices commissions so high

This is basically robbery

[silk heart]

let me make that 10 dollars or more so you can transfer it

[slate rose]

I dunno man I'm gonna try to find another transaction services cuz this shit is crezi

[silk heart]

DONT LEAVE MY 5$ (- the fees) IN LIMBO!

free money, dont complain ;p

[slate rose]

Well I can still use it if I choose PayPal option on online transactions

But barely anything is worth 4 dollars in today's economy

[silk heart]

then hey at least youll get 10 (ish) dollars(idk how the fees will work)

[slate rose]

Ill get 8.4 dollars in total - thr 1% fee

[main wren]

@slate roseI have usually paid like €60 minimum for commissions, just paid 110 ish for one, biggest commission was like €300

[slate rose]

Oh wow you actually did it

[silk heart]

the only cheap commissions ive had were from my friends, and they were only cheap cause they wanted to charge cheaply as they started, and by cheap i mean like
i still paid them 60 USD

[slate rose]

You want me to draw something?

[silk heart]

i already paid 5$ ill pay some more for oyu to actually get it

[silk heart]

naaah ill commission you some other day when i got the funds to properly pay you

[slate rose]

I can't draw rn tho I have college finals until the end of the month

[main wren]

do you even have an online portfolio for people to check out your work?

[slate rose]

I haven't posted in my Twitter lately cuz of school

[main wren]

don't forget to poison your work so AI mfs can't steal it

[slate rose]

Idk how to do that

[main wren]

I mean a place with all your work, twitter is dogshit for long term stuff, only use it if you are posting something that is trending

[silk heart]

mood i just got news that im on Academic probation next semester so that's fun
i love the college system

gl though, youll do great

[slate rose]

Im in architecture

Which is less fun than it looks

[silk heart]

OH THATS SO PRETTYY

in Data Analytics

i made a silly Slots machine for my last semester with silly lil slots machine icons :3 GAMBLING

[slate rose]

Gambling good

[silk heart]

keep on keeping on, your stuff looks fun, and ytour drawings are amazing so hey, you got that going for you

[slate rose]

[main wren]

no career is fun, never let people trick you into loving work

that's a scam to get you to do more work for less pay for magic reasons

[silk heart]

i dunno man, i know someone, well, many people who are furry... ahem... "artits"

and they seem hasppy

[main wren]

anyone getting paid huge money has a fake job

[slate rose]

And yet there's a saying where you won't hate work if you turn your hobby into work

But to me it just sounds like you'll end up hating your hobby in the process

[silk heart]

my J*b is to talk with Fr^nch people and solve their tax problems

it sucks

im not even French

[main wren]

@slate roseput a schedule on your hobby, a deadline and make it the thing that is why you can eat and you will hate that shit in less than a week

[silk heart]

i wish i can draw AT ALL

[main wren]

"Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life" is also bullshit, you think a dude who does wood working wants to fix shit at the end of the day?

[olive girder]

Lets keep the conversation about art please, can always migrate to #off-topic-discussion if you're not talking about art techniques or art advice

[main wren]

OH no, the man! Cheese it!

🧀

[slate rose]

We're talking about art as a job

And also hoe PayPal is stealing our commission/donation fees

[olive girder]

I understand but the channels purpose is to discuss art itself so I was just giving a gentle reminder to stay on topic please

[slate rose]

[mint arrow]

I need to practice hands

-# pun intended

Art is explosion

[slate rose]

https://tenor.com/view/hell-emiya-thats-hell-youre-walking-into-gif-27052445

Good luck with that

It's one of the more complex parts to study

I should know, I spent atleast 3 years just drawing hands before trying to learn everything else

[main wren]

hand it to him

there are people who spent 8 hours a day drawing for years, it's a big investment if you don't have 8 hours a day to give up

[slate rose]

Worth it tho

[main wren]

damn, those are some hands

[slate rose]

If you learn hands you're officially a cool artist

Congratulations well earned

[main wren]

I have seen people who get big bucks with trash hand game

[slate rose]

Even professionals will commend you

[lethal forum]

👀 Always knows I was so cool.

[slate rose]

Chocked

[lethal forum]

By ghost hand

Poor Zeke.

[slate rose]

Although I must warn you, mastering the art of hands will delay you of everything else

As there's no other part you can relate hand anatomy to

Unfortunately that's just how it goes

[main wren]

except ape feet

[slate rose]

Four arms literally

[lethal forum]

May I say, I only drew face so Hands cool.

🫣like eyes, I just like to draw them everywhere in my school book note.

[slate rose]

I mean our feet are technically just evolved hands

We just learned to wear shoes

[main wren]

and run faster

[slate rose]

Which to this day I still have trouble drawing

[main wren]

take your shoes off your hands first

[slate rose]

Robotic feet?

I like myself some puppet joints

Hoods are surprisingly hard to draw

Or rather make it look dynamic

[main wren]

they doo look super flat if you don't put in extra work

[slate rose]

I'm gonna try to redraw this grey serpent art some time and see how much I've improved

[main wren]

cool

[main wren]

also tell me when you are open for a commission, I have something in mind

[mint arrow]

yeah, it’s quite hard

though ngl holding the non-drawing hard in the single position after a while gets harder than the act of drawing it

[mint arrow]

ok, enough for today

[plain sorrel]

ahahaha I've done it... a fanart of a fanart

fanartception

[stone hemlock]

Trying to design a character is like shooting yourself in the leg repeatedly to see if the tumor would blow off💔 🥀

[lethal forum]

Totally forgot to share it.

[mint arrow]

today’s hand-study

[woeful shore]

https://tenor.com/view/part4-jojo-jojos-bizarre-adventure-kira-kira-yoshikage-gif-14453363

Hands

[torn girder]

Fire or no fire?

[hidden hedge]

I think the fire looks cool

[mint arrow]

today’s hand-study

man, it’s kinda hard to find the sweetspot between exaggerating and being to subtle on contrast

maybe I should have done the areas in shadow there darker without making ’em more saturated or at least not to such an extent

cause there it actually is more grayish

yeah that’s it… due to ambient occlusion there it should have been more gray, and therefore not so saturated

actually! while we are at it…

[torn girder]

4/13 & 5/13

[mint arrow]

today’s hand-study

painting in veins is also hard

needs to be more subtle somehow

[main wren]

they also depend on angle, you can probably get away with just coloured veins without worrying about showing them slightly raised unless you are really showing the han

the tendons are definitely more important

[slate rose]

I just came in here realizing I never hit send so my message has just been pending for 3 days:

I'm still doing my finals, I'm probably available by the first week of next month

[hardy yew]

This is a channel to discuss all your art (in its various forms).
Be mindful of the server rules and keep discussion out of #honkai-fan-art and #honkai-cosplay please!

[spring flicker]

hey

this exists now

[obtuse thunder]

geijustsu wa bakuhastsu da

[strong gyro]

alright ....time to discuss the lack of rita fan art

[solid junco]

yes

it is critical we beef up that area asap

[haughty night]

I've did Rita art before multiple times

[elder ridge]

Also the lack of fanart with Raven and Mei hanging out

[elder fog]

uh huh that removal of spoiler rofl

[elder ridge]

What removal of spoiler?

[elder fog]

you changed what u posted xD but its ok, I like this channel. Might be nice to get soem cool ideas without spamming the art one :3

[hardy yew]

Dear God

Since when we have this

[elder ridge]

It was literally created today

So do we do the daily reminders here now?

[solid junco]

post?

[hardy yew]

This channel's goal is to discuss art, such as fanfics, cosplays, fan art, etc. Daily reminders should be in other channels, such as #off-topic-discussion, #☕general-chat, or #🎮honkai-chat depending on what it is related to. Please do not do daily reminders in any Creative Lobby channels. Asking for art of various characters is fine however, as it can encourage someone to make something creative. On the other hand, asking daily for the same things can get annoying and be considered spam, so be mindful of your frequency.

[upper plover]

Venti in a maid outfit

[viscid harness]

ok

um, venti and wendy switch outfits

[upper plover]

Anything for wine

[low eagle]

[patent plaza]

Interesting, but this is not the Genshin server

[hardy yew]

Oooh new channel :D ty

[upper plover]

O wait I just read the other message

So sorry

Also lestan's other message should be pinned too in case people forget and start doing daily reminders

[elder ridge]

On this channel you mean

[hardy yew]

I think ima work on a piece w SN :D

[upper plover]

[stray matrix]

So this is for wip honkai art and discussion?

[upper plover]

Buff guy cosplaying Fu Hua when?

[haughty night]

@solid junco I will have go through all my Art in my folder 1st

[haughty night]

@solid junco got em go to honkai fan art chat

[solid junco]

thx

[elder ridge]

I even uploaded an APHO Mei piece I like

[unreal magnet]

Oh! They created this channel so they can put the fanart channel on slowmode and reduce it's chat clutter.

[solid junco]

looks great

[haughty night]

Thx

[elder ridge]

What do you guys think of the art I found?

[haughty night]

2Meis 1 Tuna Kiana is in Heaven

[mint swift]

Nice but meh Mei

[elder ridge]

I really liked it

[mint swift]

That’s fine

[elder ridge]

Did anybody else like it

[low eagle]

👍

[elder ridge]

I like it because it sums up what I like about APHO Mei.

[hardy yew]

Tfw you’re 5 hrs in and you realize the hair and skirt are going opposite directions

Maybe she's doing a flip

Aha mayhe, I’ll probably just fix the hair thou, since I think everything else is going in the right direction

[oak moat]

@hardy yew

Mind if I send a lot?

[hardy yew]

Not really, just be wary of Ai-chan bonking you

And if you're going for more than like 6-10, maybe save some for tomorrow so it's not a wall of images lol

[oak moat]

Ok

[hardy yew]

Cant say I didnt warn you

[oak moat]

It’s only 4 images

[hardy yew]

She bonks for more than 3

[oak moat]

I’ll make a cabbage pizza tonight

There 2

[upper tree]

[hardy yew]

What happened to the diamond thingy on the left side?

[oak moat]

Variety of technics u can observe

[upper tree]

@oak moat Looks awesome as always

[oak moat]

Thx @upper tree

@hardy yew wot diamond

Ah it’s just zoomed in one

[hardy yew]

The thing to the left of Seele, in the colorized it's barely there

[oak moat]

The canvas is 5k wide

[hardy yew]

[oak moat]

The wallpaper is exclusive so I don’t send

Only if u asked for it

[hardy yew]

Oh heck, I forgot seeles chest thing

Rest of image didnt look zoomed so I was confused

[oak moat]

Heh I play around with zooming so no one can see everything

Eka

Old pieces

Different technics

U can see the selection of styles being used in this

It’s just testing

The style doesn’t come to u

U take wot u learned and make it to ur own

[hardy yew]

My own is stick figures

I should just sit down one day and just draw for a while. It's been years at this point (probably a decade)

[oak moat]

Here

[hardy yew]

Yep, that's pretty much how I draw

[oak moat]

Lemme just put some make up to it

[hardy yew]

Same tbh

That leg thou

What are you talking about bees

Your drawing is better than I'd do tbh, I just dont have the time/patience really anymore

Ye, I still need a lot of work thou, plus my styles everywhere, but I’m glad you like it

I do like it. It takes courage to put your work out there

[livid cobalt]

@oak moat is your twitter username celine pizza?

Your drawing style reminds me alot of that artist

[hardy yew]

Yeah, that's Yoku's twitter

[oak moat]

@hardy yew no need patient really for art

Aslong u u put it down and practice

U can make it into the league

[hardy yew]

Maybe if I stop being too busy I'll pick up a pencil again

[oak moat]

The Mei is from the stick figure

I work 6 days a week lol but I can still make 1 piece per day

So nothing is bond to limit

[hardy yew]

but do you also moderate a fairly large discord, work 40hrs/wk, and work on a wiki?

LAKSJJAJS

I'll try to find some time next week

[oak moat]

i moderate Medium communities

[hardy yew]

Personally, it’s not always the hours you put into it, it’s what you make of the time

[oak moat]

I work 72 hrs a week

[hardy yew]

I usually spend my relaxation time playing games

You can spend like 30 minutes doing figure drawing or 2 hours making a piece, you’ll get more out of the figure drawing

[oak moat]

And I stand working

[hardy yew]

Yeaa

[unkempt crater]

can ı askk something

[oak moat]

[hardy yew]

Ofc

[oak moat]

Void question

[unkempt crater]

[mint swift]

[tender night]

[steep lake]

🥰

[elder ridge]

@devout magnet About the artwork you posted. The role of Project Bunny will now be played by a Ruin Hunter

[elder ridge]

@wary iris To repeat, the role of Project Bunny will now be played by a Ruin Hunter

[wary iris]

But Bronya’s robot would destroy ruin hunters

In like

1 shot

[raven sail]

Project bunny isn’t that strong

[wary iris]

And ruin hunters are even less

[elder ridge]

Edge, Project Bunny

And also with the ability to create ice bridges faster than Kaeya

[mint swift]

Project bunny is strong and It protects the Broyna

[karmic timber]

HoR Project Bunny is strong

[elder ridge]

And can turn into a motorcycle

[upper plover]

Omg the Mei art in #honkai-fan-art

It's so good

[elder ridge]

What did you think of the APHO Mei art I posted?

[dreamy nova]

zhongli better

[upper plover]

Is it here or there?

This is honkai chat

[dark hull]

It's either me or mei's earrings have a sort of optical illusion

[upper plover]

[elder ridge]

#honkai-fan-art

[upper plover]

The one with APHO mei and smoll mei with kiana?

[elder ridge]

Yep

[upper plover]

Is pretty amazing

[elder ridge]

Given where Mei is in the main game, APHO Mei is a good reassurance that she'll be alright (Part 1 ending not withstanding).

[upper plover]

[elder ridge]

[upper plover]

[elder ridge]

What's that about?

[wary iris]

Hmmm the sirin art is very..... interesting

Suggestive

[patent plaza]

What the

Discussing lore here

[wary iris]

It’s was them

Don’t Bonk Bronya

[elder ridge]

I CONFESS!

[wary iris]

Cloudya art S+ Tier

[elder ridge]

And the Bronya art is something else entirely

[wary iris]

Bronya cannot be compared

Because Bronya isn’t creative

Takes a creative mind to make art like Cloudya and Gujitso

[elder ridge]

Sorry. Forgot the word "art"

Look I just like the Bronya art on this server

[elder fog]

Is it even possible to bonk bronya in the virtual world? ...

[elder ridge]

I don't think so.

And it's safe to say that it still holds true in APHO

If the text files in APHO are of any indication that is

[elder ridge]

@median cairn Is there a translation for the tweet you posted?

[solid junco]

was wondering, what do we do if the original source by the artist was deleted?

[elder ridge]

I'm not sure

[willow topaz]

Just state so

[elder ridge]

I'm curious what it says

[forest crystal]

does anybody have a HD version of this

[dark hull]

I can try and find it for you

[forest crystal]

that would be great

[mint swift]

Nice Rita

[dark hull]

Is this any better? (My google won't load so I had to search in reddit)

[solid junco]

@forest crystal

full size of it

finding sauce is just a game of musical chairs between tin eye, google images and sauce nao

[hardy yew]

Oooh pretty!

What’s the tea is she drinking

[mint swift]

Better not be captain tea

[dark hull]

I just noticed it says something in Spanish on the seat behind rita

"La casi-" and that's all I can make out

[clear knoll]

Right there

[raven sail]

Casalia

[median cairn]

Sadly no translations but I'll try to summarize it from the best I can

[elder ridge]

Thank you

[median cairn]

Panel 1:

• Mei pondered that tomorrow will be her first month of fighting alongside Carole and Adam.
• Mei tells to Carole and Adam that once their mission is done, they'll do a dinner party. Adam agrees to it, but Carole used all of her monthly allowance on her make-up stuffs. Mei didn't mind about it and instead go to anywhere they prefer.
• Adam gave thought while Carole wants either sushi, meat, french food or anything that she likes. Until she said "Then...", which Mei gave a flashback.
• "Mei-senpai! Then what about dinner!!?"

Panel 2:

• Teen Mei apologized to Kiana that she won't be home as she was about to test a new battlesuit [Crimson Impulse] that was given to her. Kiana wants her to go home soon, although buying groceries will be late. Tuna then decides to wait for her.
• Mei calls Kiana "a troublesome child" and asks if she want to eat her cooked meals. Kiana absolutely answered yes and is much more better than eating outside.
• Back to PHO time, Adam and Carole both suggested "Mei (Captain)'s Handmade Cooking"
• Cue Mei in sudden silence

Panel 3:

• Happy dinner time with the old gang 😭 (if you noticed the wall clock, Kiana waited almost at 9PM all while scarfing the food)
• Then Mei happily called them both "troublesome kids" and goes off with the two to make food. [END]

[elder ridge]

And the specific battlesuit is Crimson Impulse

[median cairn]

Yes

[boreal comet]

[elder fog]

@median cairn thank you so much fo taking the time to summarize those comics ^^

[elder ridge]

@elder fog She'll recover. She can't stay dead. And that's why her story is so tragic

[elder fog]

I hope so <_< I'm so damn curious about new episodes

[elder ridge]

What a coincidence that she's the focus of the current arc

[elder fog]

ù.u..when i started learning a bit more about her lore i had so many questions and i'm glad they are getting answered now BUT ANYWAY... dammit I want to draw more and my shoulder is giving me the middle finger lately. It hurts and i can barely work on commissions grrr

[mint swift]

Only us captains can find her heart

[elder ridge]

And right now, only Raven can help Mei find hers.

[elder fog]

👀 ...i'm also very curious about that too.....

[mint swift]

Yes

[elder ridge]

And if APHO is of any indication, Mei's dark soul will be filled with life.

[mint swift]

The not so ara ara Mei

[boreal comet]

Here's my latest artwork's sneak peek

[mint swift]

Very nice

[hardy yew]

Nah, gore isn't allowed. Thx for being mindful

[hollow marlin]

What would be a good title for this? I know its not a crossover, but im just curious

[tender night]

[tender night]

i have no idea

i dont do titles so

[hollow marlin]

how about queen of honkai vs anti magic demon

[tender night]

does the demon have like yknow

[hollow marlin]

Its black asta on left and god kiana on right

[tender night]

[hollow marlin]

but thanks for that

[hardy yew]

Itttssss color time qwq

[upper plover]

Don't mess it up

[hardy yew]

I’ll try qwq

[fallen leaf]

Make a copy of that before colouring

[hardy yew]

Yup 👍

[upper plover]

[elder ridge]

@dusky belfry It's funny how that works in tandem with the likely non canon Evangellion crossover coming up

[upper plover]

[dusky belfry]

I thought that there is nothing new about the Evangelion service, but this is the crossover

[raven sail]

I need more chibi Honkai stuff

There is a serious shortage of that

[hardy yew]

Thanks

[upper plover]

We need an 8-bit event in Honkai so these ads can come true

[urban glacier]

I second that.

[wary iris]

Bronya likes that video

That should be a mini game inside of honkai

[remote eagle]

that we play for crystals :)

[wary iris]

No

Your visa couldn’t handle it

[latent oyster]

Make a new valk

[elder ridge]

What do you guys think of the art I recently found?

[cerulean skiff]

[upper plover]

[mint swift]

It’s very nice

[bleak owl]

New art supplies

Now I have the motivation to draw

But idk who Valk to draw

[thin cove]

doodoo

[dry pasture]

I have this wip i never continued for almost half a year, if anyone can give some tips on good techniques/functions to know for Medibang Paint pls let me know 🙏

[mint swift]

That Fu Hua in that outfit is something nice in honkai-fanart

[wary iris]

BN outfit is always good to see

[boreal comet]

Tbh the outfit in Honkai art looks like the wedding outfit with out the transparent dress pieces

[dusky belfry]

This is Cursed?

[solid junco]

[grim surge]

“Immediate evac requested.”
“Permission granted. Prepare for take off.”

[solid junco]

What mihoyo thinks the players want: Eva crossover, new battlesuits
What the players really want: Rita Helicopter

[haughty night]

Ritacopter

with heat seeking Scythes

an ice blades

[boreal comet]

What's so cursed about it?

[upper plover]

The recent bronya in #honkai-fan-art is amazing

It's also very adorable

[elder ridge]

Thanks. I found it recently and just thought I had to post it.

[mint swift]

Smol Bronya is cute want to hug but she might kick my but

[unreal magnet]

Smol Bronya is great but what about Smug Bronya?

[wary iris]

[boreal comet]

My latest artwork I took Doodoo and Rita to Spain ||here's also a Doodoo X me in this image can you guys find it?||

[upper plover]

Nope

I don't have a big brain

[upper plover]

O

[upper plover]

The recent bronya cosplay is thicc

[wary iris]

[mint swift]

I see you’re a man of culture

[solid junco]

@wild arch very cute art, thanks for sharing

[young horizon]

ahhhhhh

i just started a honkai fanart

but then

i didnt stick to one character

so now the whole thing isnt honkai fanart

stronk is the disappointment

im planning to draw a few of them in this style though ;U;

knight moonbeam doesnt run swords hhhhhh

[cerulean skiff]

I mean at this point closest you can do is ditch the KMB wings and make it FS

Since there's fire and FS's hairstyle is close to that

Still, whatever you draw its worth experimenting what works for you and all so just continue at it

[young horizon]

eeee ty!

lel i think i'll keep this image

flame doesnt wear long dresses anyhoo
