I'm trying to draw jolteon and everytime I redraw his body he keeps getting fluffier

Soon it will consume him

The spirit dragons in botw and totk are my favorite things. (I’m mostly ignoring the lore of them from totk cause I can)

Heres this being that only you and the pure of heart can see. Their very presence causes elemental balls of destruction to form. They are so big that you shooting an arrow at them doesn’t even seem to register to them. Nor does climbing on them. In botw they appear and disappear through water portals.

They really are spirits who happen to be dragons more than dragons who happen to have spirit powers.

On some level they are benevolent. They seem to guard the three springs and have a connection to the goddesses but they don’t seem to do much but exist. But god are they pretty and their theme is amazing. One of my favorites next to the stable theme. 10/10 creatures

You know what’s worse than artist/writers block to me? Realizing you need to scrap what you have and start from scratch.

I know it’s a necessary evil. Sometimes you can’t edit something into being good as it is and you just gotta start all over again. Doesn’t mean it’s not soul crushing

Whoever decided that putting asmr in unskippable ads was ok is number one on my shit list

Writing for me is really just a series of “oops forgot to do this really important thing” and then editing it and slowly it gets better and better but I have less and less sanity.

Currently I’ve got, forgot to give gods a personality. Then forgot that people move around when they speak, forgot to describe what people look like, then forgot scenery exists. Yeah fun times

At least I’m writing fanfic about video games so if I wanna know if three gods can fit into a very specific cave, I can just open the game and check.

You ever think about how if people study you in art class they’ll use your posts as references? Like some student 50 years from now is gonna look at my posts for an assignment on fanart or something and I will have to answer to what they think

If you don’t like doing art warmups because you want to get straight to the thing you wanna draw, do a warmup related to what you want to be drawing. I wanna draw heracross so to warm up I’m drawing roly-poly’s (pill bugs whatever).

I just find that trying to draw random shapes as warmups just makes me bored and uninterested.

It’s weird when someone asks how to develop an art style. Like I kept trying to draw and incorporating what I liked (big heads, fluffy, ect) and dropping what I didn’t (mouths) and eventually you’ll get your own style (sometimes against your will). Just do what you want
