I’ve seen people sie box cutter like knives to smooth stress marks/ remove nubs

Use*

[brave sand]

Yeah that's what I do

Knife has to be sharp and you can using a pushing motion

Kinda have to be like a sawing motion

Be careful not to apply to much force and just let the knife do the work

[limber harbor]

I did see this nice hobby set in a dollar store and I’m considering buying it

It has graph board, knives you name it

For about 29$ AUD

[limber harbor]

Let the knife slide and not force it right?

[brave sand]

It's like how you cut an onion

You don't push down on your knife, but move it back and forth

I've made that mistake too many times before I picked up on it

[limber harbor]

Got it

I’ll note it when I get the knives

[brave sand]

Any snapping will put stress marks on it

Worse thing that can happen is when you accidentally make a pit when removing a nub

Try not to dig into the plastic and use sanding when possible

[limber harbor]

I’m mostly scared of accidentally cutting a part that looks cuttbale but isn’t

[brave sand]

It will say on the instructions

[limber harbor]

I make gunpla after work when I buy it and it’s relaxing

But my Brain shuts off and I really on the instructions, not paying attention to the small icons…

I made that mistake a few times…

[limber harbor]

Burnt out from digital art so I’m looking for other hobbies before fully returning to digital art

[brave sand]

Have you tried other model stuff outside of gunpla?

[limber harbor]

I want to try making the initial D or tamiya car models

But they are too expensive

[brave sand]

Those will take a lot of work

[limber harbor]

Gunpla is cheap

[limber harbor]

Willing to put it in

Especially if it a Mitsubishi Lancer model

I wanna put it inside my car

[brave sand]

Reville is pretty cheap tbh

[limber harbor]

What reveille?

[brave sand]

Have you tried looking into custom hot wheels scene?

[limber harbor]

I follow this guy on YouTube shorts who makes custom hot wheels

[brave sand]

Sorry, Revell https://www.revell.de/en/products/modelmaking/revell-usa/

[limber harbor]

I see

[brave sand]

Weir

Weird

I can get the same models for $15 stateside

But yeah, I don't think Revell does much JP cars

[limber harbor]

The project 64 is the guys name

Makes a lot of custom hot wheels

[limber harbor]

I see a lot of vintage JDM cars made by tamiya and I really want them!

They have the first Toyota car and the skyline 2000GT

They also have the Aura NSX and GR86 and BRZ respectively

[brave sand]

I have the Subaru Brat

[limber harbor]

No lancer of any sort tho sadly

[limber harbor]

Yooo! May I see?

[brave sand]

You should do a cheap model before doing something you want

[limber harbor]

The cheapest car model is Takumi’s AE86

And I already have a die cast of an AE86 so I don’t see a point

[brave sand]

I wish I was at home, but I am not and looking through my photos rn

[limber harbor]

Ah

That’s alright

[limber harbor]

It’s just nice to see JDM Cars that aren’t the Supra or R34 all the time

They are good cars but there are so many other JDM cars

Like the Mitsubishi 3000GT

[brave sand]

Here's the kit I have. I just need to get a photo

[limber harbor]

I have a matchbox car of that car

[limber harbor]

Wait, do they make midgets?

Nissan midgets?

[brave sand]

Not sure

[limber harbor]

What’s a good car model you recommend?

That won’t break the bank that bad

And I’ll try find it

[brave sand]

I can't really speak for many. A lot of people say Tamiya is the best. Revell isn't highly regarded, but you can find good models

Althought

[limber harbor]

I see

[brave sand]

Airfix

[limber harbor]

Airfix?

[brave sand]

https://uk.airfix.com/

[limber harbor]

I seen a few plane models

I remember seeing spitfire and Hellcat

[brave sand]

They have very cheap small models

Also if you like lego

https://uk.airfix.com/shop/quick-build

Unfortunately don't have any JDM cars

Just European exotics and muscle cars

[limber harbor]

That’s fine

European cars are just as nice!

Wonder if they have a rally Quattro

[brave sand]

[limber harbor]

A double deck bus?!

[brave sand]

Lego got you covered

[limber harbor]

They have That?

I have never seen that on shelves

Ever

[brave sand]

You'll have to buy it secondhand since it's been discontinued years ago

[limber harbor]

Ooooh

[brave sand]

They have GR Supra too

[limber harbor]

Makes sense

[limber harbor]

I have that one

As well as the McLaren technic

And Camaro technic

My favourite Lego I got is the bonsai

[brave sand]

I'm thinking about getting the F&F GTR

[limber harbor]

I see a lambo Countach

[brave sand]

I'm not a fan of Italian supercars, but I love the boxy design of the Countach

[limber harbor]

They also have that?

[brave sand]

It has that weird 90s charm

[limber harbor]

Wait if they have Countach

Do they have Ferrari F40?

[limber harbor]

That looks old…

[brave sand]

It is

[limber harbor]

Must be expensive

Ah

[brave sand]

Oh

They do have the speed champions

The creator model is much nicer

[limber harbor]

That also looks a bit old

[brave sand]

This was before Lego switched from 1 seat to 2 seat vehicles

$25 on ebay not bad for old retired lego set

[limber harbor]

USD?

[brave sand]

yeah

[limber harbor]

Let me do some converging one sec

Converting*

[limber harbor]

that is about 48$ AUD

[brave sand]

idk what's expensive in AUD

[limber harbor]

It’s… not bad

That what I’ll say

Definitely pricey but not too bad

[brave sand]

Still gonna be a lot for shipping. A lot of lego sets can be found cheap in US or in Asia apparently

[brave sand]

the creator one is going for around $300 used

[limber harbor]

The biggest problem with buying stuff from America or Asia is the shipping

Especially now days

[limber harbor]

I’ll take a look at eBay Au and see if I can find one

[brave sand]

Y'all have a VAT?

[limber harbor]

What’s that?

[brave sand]

Value added tax

Import duties

[brave sand]

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/186073315498

[limber harbor]

Oh yeah we have that

[brave sand]

I don't know if you mind a damaged box

But if you gonna be opening it up anyways it probably doesn't even matter tbh

[limber harbor]

I wanna keep the box

But not too concerned if it s damaged

[untold crypt]

[limber harbor]

Pt 2 of the HEV suit project

Priming:

I have this matte black primer spray for cars

And I'm hoping it will work for gunpla

[urban sage]

If it's enamel, then no

That will eat the plastic and it won't stick

[limber harbor]

The can says it's for metal, plastic and fibreglass

It should be fine

I'll test it on a spate barbatos arm that came with the 144 scale

[urban sage]

Which kind of plastic

Plastic is not create equal

You can’t use an older dip panel liner pen on modern kits because of the plastic

And the properties of the ink

[limber harbor]

It doesn't say what kind of plastic, but I'm gonna assume it's the one used in cars

[next fjord]

wip

[limber harbor]

Now just got to watch for it to dry

[late jungle]

Btw, instead of gundam, why dont chu try some warhammer

[limber harbor]

Behold: my horrible painting skills:

[limber harbor]

Gundam for where I am us more accessible and cheaper

[brave sand]

Did you think your paints

Also wouldn't recommend spray painting because it create too thick of a coat

Also, did you prime?

Would reommend getting air compressor or something tbh

Should've also sanded the surface before painting

[limber harbor]

1. Yes I primed

2. I don't have any airbrush nor any spray paint

[limber harbor]

3. The colours are based of the MK5 Hev suit

4. I'm painting it like how you paint with acrylics

Apply layer by layer

[brave sand]

Acrylics is hard

[limber harbor]

It was the thing I could access and more on my budget

[brave sand]

For large surfaces

Brushing is hard for larger surfaces

But not impossible

[limber harbor]

I find painting fun

[brave sand]

What primer you used?

[limber harbor]

A matte black primer used for cars

But it's worked well for the gunpla

[brave sand]

I was thinking that would've been to thick but guess not

[limber harbor]

It's not too thick

It is thicker then most primers traditionally use for model kits

But it's not too thick

[brave sand]

I guess

I guess the only the left is you missed a spot on the shoulder pieces

[limber harbor]

What what

[brave sand]

You tried masking tape?

[limber harbor]

No

[limber harbor]

Fuck.

[brave sand]

Could use masking tape for sharper lines

[limber harbor]

Bruh my first GUNPLA I paint

I'm so bad at it 🤣

[brave sand]

At least you faired better than me

oh u

oh uh

[limber harbor]

I wouldn't say that

[brave sand]

There is older kits that are easier to paint

[limber harbor]

Zaku's are pretty easy to paint

It's not all bad

[brave sand]

Like old kits that you can glue together

That type of old

[limber harbor]

No thank you...

I don't like glueing stuff

The only time I will is when connectors break

[brave sand]

I mean it depends on the model tbh

Smaller parts are a bitch

[limber harbor]

I know...

[limber harbor]

I have experience with acrylic

I just never done it on a model kit before

WAIT I HAD ARTIST TAPE

[brave sand]

Good thing you were using darker colors

[limber harbor]

Bruh...

The lines would've been so much cleaner...

[brave sand]

Doing anything white or really light colors with black primer would be fucking nightmare

I hate working with white arylics

You know how many layers

[limber harbor]

The HEV's colours are pretty saturated

It's mostly orange and a few metallic greys

So I don't have too much problems with the primer so far

It just need a bit more layers then usual

[brave sand]

Gonna leave it matte or glossy?

[limber harbor]

The MK5 in game isn't too glossy

So probs matte

[brave sand]

Hmm you can make some parts glossy

idk

depends on how much work you want to do

like the shoulders, thighs, and shins gare glossy while the torso and feet knees and arms are matte

[urban sage]

That went fast

[urban sage]

Turn it into rust

[limber harbor]

Damn is it that bad?

[urban sage]

Weather it!

[limber harbor]

Is the paint job ruined already?)

[urban sage]

Your choice on that

[limber harbor]

What do you think?

[urban sage]

I’m just saying weather it so people won’t notice the streaky paint

[limber harbor]

I can try save it

I think...

[urban sage]

Given your tools and lack of experience, you did a good job

[limber harbor]

Thanks...

[harsh nacelle]

hm

dunke sketchers

[limber harbor]

The acrylic fume is making me wanna vomit

Should I stop here?

Take a break?

I can’t paint properly

[urban sage]

Use a mask

[limber harbor]

I’ll just take a break

I’ve been priming and painting since the morning

[limber harbor]

What do you think so far tho

For my first time painting

[urban sage]

[limber harbor]

I don’t like that emojis expression

[urban sage]

[limber harbor]

Is it bad?

[urban sage]

I’ve seen worse

[limber harbor]

So it’s alright?

[urban sage]

Given circumstances

Yes

[limber harbor]

In general?

[urban sage]

I’ve seen worse

I really wanted to do this detail since I started painting

Having the lambda cross out the combine logo

Added some rusting to the metals too

[tender mango]

Very nice

[limber harbor]

And it’s done

[brave sand]

Way better. Are you sure you not using paint thinner? That may be making you vomit

[limber harbor]

The smell of the acrylic is what makes me nauseous

[limber harbor]

But it.. was really fun painting!

Especially adding the wear and tear and weathering stuff

[late jungle]

Im having USS Washington ship model

but eh

I screwed up the painting

so

yuh

[limber harbor]

I think you can still save it

I'm still looking for a CV-17 bunker hill model

If that exist

[late jungle]

lost most of the smol pieces

like

AA guns

they are too smol and fragile

so they break regularly

[limber harbor]

Small parts are annoying ngl

[late jungle]

with a person that have no expriences like me

it is like feeding the anime girl

"doesnt exist"

[limber harbor]

I have no experience ethier

And as soon as the small part land on the floor

It no clips to the backrooms

I can't find it anymore

[late jungle]

lol

I can still found em but

It cant stick to the

place I stick em in

fall apart like

2 seconds after I turned away

and the part where I wanted it to

be like so

it glued like my addiction to anime girls

[limber harbor]

I got into hobby kits because of burn out for digital art

And I buy gunpla cause it's pretty cheap

[limber harbor]

I probably have an addiction 🤣

Gunpla and anything to do with building stuff just gives me satisfaction that completed art doesn't give anymore

So while I let the burn out subside, I'm Gona keeep making kits

[late jungle]

another washy art

[strange grotto]

looks like a black cube of wisdom/sirens cube?

I just want to make a little art and I want it to be as close to the original as possible

[late jungle]

somewhat close

[strange grotto]

Well...

I think it looks closer now

yes I just made the first cube transparent and added the second cube

vermeil is looking adorable there

[frank cradle]

Thank you very much. I have made an error btw. This is why@charred temple

Info: Info: She is supposed to have a left prosthetic forearm(I missed that part of her profile). I could fix that with some minor tweaks to her arm OR say its just a skin-like covering that extends all the way to the arm monitor so that she feels like she has a regular arm.

I cant believe I missed that detail.

When I work on another operator, I will make sure to sweep through their profile entirely

[charred temple]

Yes but it would still be nice since Shangri-la had a P-51 take off from her flight deck

Hello, This is a drawing in progress I'm doing of a Vampire Roon, maybe I will finish it near to Halloween, Tell me, What do you think?

Very pretty But you should add her vampire fangs.

[limber harbor]

This is less of a art question and more of just copy right stuff

Will I get criticism from my webcomic if I use the GT86?

When MF Ghost uses the same car?

The differences here is the MF Ghost 86 is the pre face lift one

And it's coloured red with an 86 decal

While the one I use in my webcomic is the 2017 face lift one

And is white with the bakery logo on both sides

I feel like the problems will only happen if I directly copy MF ghost

But I just wanted to make sure

[urban sage]

MF Ghost is closer to Wangan Midnight and exDriver

[limber harbor]

So I should be fine?

If I also use the GT86?

[urban sage]

Probably

Yes

I’d be more worried about Toyota’s legal team

Just debadge it

[limber harbor]

Don't worry I have that covered

[urban sage]

It’s better for aerodynamics

[limber harbor]

Should I need to say the company name I have legally distinct Version

[urban sage]

MF Ghost copied ExDriver, holy fuck

[limber harbor]

Toyoda

Mitsubi

[urban sage]

Those hurt me

[limber harbor]

Nizzan

Etc etc

NISMO is a public domain

So I should be fine... I hope

[urban sage]

Better idea

Translate the names into English

[limber harbor]

I literally removed ishi from Mistubishi

[urban sage]

And then into another language

[limber harbor]

How is that the bad one?

Brb

[urban sage]

Mitsubishi means three diamonds

Call it Trirhom

Tri Rhombus

Also if you want to just straight up make up cars

Make Tuckers

[strange grotto]

it looks weird

[late jungle]

I wonder how u guys are so good at blender

[ionic sluice]

years of experience, been working with it since 2016

[ionic sluice]

you might want to look into shader nodes, you can get a better look by using color ramps to do anime shading

i would also maybe use a matcap to make it look not so plastic

[strange grotto]

I don't know how to work with shaders in blender yet

And besides, I loaded the MMD model into the blender

[ionic sluice]

you should learn it, it makes creating interesting renders fast

also, you probably want to change the color space off of filmic and onto standard

it's what make things look greyer then they should

[strange grotto]

The model looks now... Brighter?

You can increase the contrast of the cubes

Let's say up to two

Or even up to one and a half

You can make your eyes glow

After all, this is AI, as it were

[strange grotto]

This will be difficult, because in the model the eyes are loaded with part of the face

[ionic sluice]

you can seperate them and give them a new material to tweak the emissions

[strange grotto]

It's just like that there

And let's go to private messages so as not to clog up the chat

[sleek elbow]

I feel like my hair drawing skills need to improve

question about digital art and drawing tablets

Is there a way to get the texture to feel like paper?

I got to use one for about 2 hours when I was a "road knight" for a six months, and the tactile feel fucked me over

[limber harbor]

Depends on the art software tho

There are image layer… I’ll double check on the name

Which allows you to give a canvas texture

I have a video on how to do this

But I don’t know if you use ibis paint

https://youtube.com/watch?v=NqHP0YY1oVI&si=wVMa7n1et7nzuDG-

This video leans more on the water colour aspect but it’s does show you how to make textures for your canvas

Around the 1:48min mark

It was CSP

And no, the

physical texture

of the tablet

[limber harbor]

Oh

[urban sage]

I don't care about canvas textures

[limber harbor]

There are screen protectors the replicate the feeling of paper

[urban sage]

Need

[limber harbor]

I think?

[urban sage]

Are they any good?

[limber harbor]

Never tired them

But to some of my friends who have that

They tell me it feels like paper

[formal temple]

Downside I'd they tend to wear away at your nib a bit

So make sure you've got a stylus that has replaceable nibs so you're not having to buy an entirely new pen every year or two lol

We used to use the paper ones at my old job and because I press pretty hard + had rhe texture I wore mine out in a year lmao

[sullen juniper]

well if you drew it then here or offtopic i would say

if you didn't then offtopic, unless it's related to a topic here

[quaint loom]

alright, thank you so much, ill post it there, do you want me to delete the image?

[sullen juniper]

i got no say in that

[quaint loom]

its alright, but thanks anyway

My new art

[limber harbor]

Bunker’s line art is nearly done

[stoic thistle]

Catt

[brave sand]

Looks like a Jack Stauber skit

[limber harbor]

Paint progress so far

I definitely need to smooth it out

I'll let the Acrylic properly dry and cure before painting on another layer

In hopes of a more smoother paint job

Its the entry grade Gundam so I'm not loosing a lot of money

But if i plan to paint a MG

I need to get better

Painting GUNPLA has reminded me that I am a digital artist who draws racing anime girls and boats with large floatation devices

.... And not a painter

But I'll get better

[urban sage]

[icy rose]

A year later. Drew her again in my bday

[urban sage]

My Fate OC because I can do that

Pellinore, super overlooked figure of Arthurian myth

[urban sage]

Mostly a joke

I might or might be kinda sorta maybe not really but perhaps planning a cyberpunk/modern Arthurian myth thing

[arctic spindle]

Idk why but I feel like 60x comfier drawing doodles like these than full blown illust

[urban sage]

Less work and more fun?

[arctic spindle]

I suppose so

[half birch]

How do people not lose sanity while drawing horns?
Been spending like half an hour on line art per segment of horn which is only like 5 lines

I am not even at the thicker base of it which has more lines per segment

[urban sage]

Depends on the detail and shaping of the horns

[half birch]

I am struggling

And I need to mess with some lines again cause I’m not liking how 2 of the segments are connecting

I am very glad the angle of the head made it so the other horn is barely visible

[half birch]

Only had to change one line, luckily

[mortal wharf]

I drew Kashino!

[urban sage]

You poor thing

[dense hearth]

Renown Swooping in

[limber harbor]

Oh god I messed up the manga lining

Oh god oh god

Why the fuck did I do in paint

I'm an idiot

I should just used art liner

God im stupid...

[limber harbor]

If this doesnt like a disaster... I don't know what is...

[late jungle]

Totally a disaster

[limber harbor]

Hes staying in the box...

[late jungle]

It looks like it got burnt

[limber harbor]

I'll try again next time...

[late jungle]

Lemme

See mine

Ut stayed in tge same

Codition

Since I

Dont have much material

[limber harbor]

Isn't that a good thing?

[late jungle]

Like the black color

[limber harbor]

If it stays in the same condition?

[late jungle]

Nah

I was

[limber harbor]

Besides the paint looks fine

[late jungle]

Talking about I left it like that

Didnt do anything afterwards

[limber harbor]

Well... I always wanted to do an abandoned RX-78-2...

[late jungle]

Like

[limber harbor]

So now I have something to use for that project

[late jungle]

I left lost a lot if pieces

Like

AAs

Radio

And

Turrets are broken

Due to sone weird shut

Shit

Basically nothing I can do

[limber harbor]

I hate the tiny pieces

[late jungle]

Same

[limber harbor]

They just disappear in thin air when you drop them

[late jungle]

I wanted to but the

Buy

The 1/200 one

But expensive

So I bought 1/700

Washington

And 1/200 is NC

IF i buy the 1/200

I will still make her as washingtin

Washington

[limber harbor]

Remind me

[late jungle]

Instead of NC

[limber harbor]

To use art liner for the manga lines next time...

Instead of black paint...

[late jungle]

Btw

[limber harbor]

I'll just stick to digital art...

[late jungle]

Same

[limber harbor]

Btw....?

[late jungle]

Oh it was meant to

Send before

The image

[limber harbor]

Oh like maid washy?

[gloomy sorrel]

rough concept for HMS cornwall for AL, going for the celtic warrior queen / knight vibe, cat ears/ tail bc of the local beast of bodmin legend (panther) - i think the colours work fairly well but open to feedback 🙂

[urban sage]

MOMMY!?

Can I pet her?

[gloomy sorrel]

Panther mommy?🤔

Yessss

I think her personality would want some reassurance and support (the county she is named after hasn’t had the best history💀)

[arctic spindle]

A doodle of blep giving you coffe, back to cave now

[urban sage]

[tender mango]

Help

Is there anything I should fixing?

[arctic spindle]

Hmmm are you on drawing tablet?

[onyx comet]

Move her nose to the left so it doesn't look flat

[tender mango]

Yeah something like that

[arctic spindle]

Right so, honestly

You could redo the face using a skull as a base

A bit larger neck etc etc

Not sure how I'd explain but hmmm... Lift her head a bit up, make a thin not soo long neck... Push the breasts a bit down but redo the empty area the shoulder pads probably would be a bit far from each other, not much I'm sure... Waist can be a bit larger

I've lately been deep torturing myself studying anatomy so those are my guesses, I liked the crosslegs too

[tender mango]

Thanks you

[tender mango]

Thx

[foggy basalt]

I love how many references and details you have created in your character.

[wary tusk]

Low tier artist here. I hope my pencil sketch transmit well in digital. First time using csp

[late jungle]

Looks quite good

[wary tusk]

My hope is that I'll produce many Siren art in the near future. Remember me

[late jungle]

My first time was shut

Shit

Eventually, I managed to upgrade it over time tho

Overall great job @wary tusk

[wary tusk]

Thank you kindly @late jungle

[late jungle]

Good artist deserve good compliment

Btw are you drawing h***ai or wut

[gloomy sorrel]

Thanks:)

[wary tusk]

No , just pin up art in lingerie

But I will get to that point eventually

[late jungle]

Bet

[gloomy sorrel]

What’s a good pen in clip art for lineart? Mine is allways shockingly terribly, I use the g pen but idk if there’s a better option

[late jungle]

Normak G-pen

Normal

[gloomy sorrel]

Huh it’s a skill issue then😭

[late jungle]

Maybe

[gloomy sorrel]

Ty

[late jungle]

Idk what about the other but eh I always use gpen

[quiet monolith]

play around with pressure settings, might be able to find smth you like more than default

[mortal ridge]

Iron within,iron without

[honest flume]

Uuuu

[fallen charm]

This is a concept that has been in my mind,better to draw it before I forget, its just a rough sketch concept though #originalart

[arctic spindle]

Depends a lot on you tbh

Csp assets has a ton of, I'm mostly fond of Real G-Pen and Kuro Sketch/Ink ones

You might wanna try the uh artist pack? Not sure how's it's called pen brush's too, I found them extremely pleasant to use for sketch

[half birch]

Head

I may have chosen the most inefficient workflow for this but I’m enjoying the process and after not drawing for quite a while that seems most important to get back into things

[fickle moon]

Final

[gloomy sorrel]

I think I might have mucked up the settings for it but it’s likely a skill issue, I use a £60 drawing tablet plugged into my laptop rather than drawing directly onto a tablet so I think that may be why, but I’ll try and look into the other packs 🙂

[arctic spindle]

I mean

I use a screenless 2017 tablet

Tho try pumping the stability up in the pen settings

It helps if you feel unsure about quick pen moviment

Not an art update but uh… one of my artworks made Ibis crash 😂

This one

It was working fine until I selected this one and it crashed

[native moss]

You make that with Ibis?

[limber harbor]

Yeah Ibis paint X

Why?

[limber harbor]

I’ve been looking to upgrade to procreate

I just don’t have the money

[native moss]

How do you make something like that on your phone?

[limber harbor]

iPad

And stylus

[native moss]

ooooooh

[limber harbor]

People who can do this on phone…

Are just a who,e different breed…

Whole*

Why do you ask?

[native moss]

Cuz I thought you were of that whole different breed. Thought Ibis was just a mobile thing

Very jealous of people who can draw well on their phone

[limber harbor]

I wish

[limber harbor]

Ibis is now available on Microsoft

And IPad

It’s not only exclusive to phones

It’s been my go to since I started

[native moss]

Huh, neat

[limber harbor]

When I did only use my finger…

I do not like looking at my old art

[native moss]

I started with Ibis on the phone and eventually moved to CLIP. Never going back

I like seeing how bad I was compared to now

[limber harbor]

Warning though it’s very bright

This was like my first ever piece of digital art

Which was just a paper drawing transferred to phone

Then my first IPad art

And what I make now days:

[native moss]

I don't even have my first one saved. Probably stuck on my old phone

[limber harbor]

I do agree with seeing old art and seeing how far you come

But… I’m still not satisfied with what I make…

I’ve yet to make something like this again

But I just can’t anymore..

I don’t know why

[native moss]

How long ago did you make that?

[limber harbor]

2022

[native moss]

Did you end up not drawing for a while after?

[limber harbor]

My sis needed the iPad for like… half the year cause she broke her laptop somehow

Didn’t give it back to me until like last 2months

She could’ve like repaired her laptop… while borrowing my ipad but

Idk

[native moss]

Oh dang

[limber harbor]

I get back into it

And I finally… start making my webcomic

And.. boom big burnout

I hate everything I make and I can’t feel the same satisfaction I used to have making art…

I feel obligated to do it instead of just wanting to do it

I’ve.. pushed through

But it creeps up on me every now and then

My last post was like… Jun?

Months ago

[limber harbor]

Most of my art is just sketches I do for my webcomic and stuff

Because that’s what I want to draw

But Azur gets me the most traction

[native moss]

Yeah burnout really sucks. Last time I had it I took a while to get back into the flow. Now if I feel it creeping up I take a short break from drawing. If I do draw its random doodles and stuff

[limber harbor]

I haven’t even made the proper webcomic yet

And already… I’m having fun

[limber harbor]

A friend gave me that advice to just draw to get the motivation back

And it’s… sorta came back?

[native moss]

Wym sorta?

[limber harbor]

It’s coming back but I don’t feel as motivated as I was before

[native moss]

Sometimes it just takes time.

[brave sand]

I don't paint them

[simple lynx]

how did you know?

[narrow junco]

@urban sage done

[narrow junco]

bel made it

[urban sage]

Oh?

[narrow junco]

idk cuz i haven't watch azurlane anime but she drag her into closet i guess

[foggy basalt]

I noticed a piece of the collar with bowtie at Ensi, which she has in her bunnysuit

[stoic thistle]

Old combination

This should be the skin shading about done:

And it’s October I just realised

Need to finish up Shang soon

[limber harbor]

Rubbing alcohol makes a decent paint thinner

[limber harbor]

Nvm I’ll just redo the painting tmrw

[paper slate]

If I’d have seen that earlier, I’d have warned you that rubbing alcohol dissolves some paints

[gloomy sorrel]

yo where can i actually see your comic? ive been interested bc i keep seeing it when i go on this server every now and then

[gloomy sorrel]

[limber harbor]

It hasn’t been properly made, the comic itself
