I’ve been really thinking of reopening my art shop soon… I’ve been taking some practice doodles (hence all the posting lately) while I shake off my rust and I’m finding things I enjoy working on again. I miss trying my hand at more dragons/OCs and colors. my shop’s so broken rn lmao but that’s a problem for a later date it’s just nice getting back into art
#my mental health is starting to improve a bit#took a couple years but I found some meds that finally work better for me#ofc things aren’t 100% but I was really in a pit for a while#like ‘did not leave my house in months and slept 14 hours a day’ kind of pit#so. any improvement is better lol. but nah I’ve been making real improvement and im doing better. a lil shaky sometimes but that’s expected#diagnosed with chronic fatigue too. which is unfortunate but not unexpected. i am indeed god’s sleepiest soldier#i feel like a raisin slowly rehydrating but considering i was in a desert before any hydration is welcome#just learning how to enjoy things again overall#one thing I just couldn’t get myself to do (and enjoy) was art. doodles here and there but nothing to post#and it’s kind of funny because I feel like that downtime actually gave me a chance to think about what I wanted to work on#even when I wasn’t actively practicing#just paying attention to things I guess. enjoying art styles#i genuinely think my experimenting with stained is helping me learn colors#i spend hours in the scryshop im glad it’s paying off lmao#i want to tackle bigger things but i just gotta ease myself into the hang of things again#for now im having fun and that’s coooool. thank you all for your nice comments#i read all tags while kicking my feet and giggling. thank u all#that’s the update on Me tho. more to come hopefully#starting next month/julyish I will have a significant amount of time to dedicate to drawing which i intend on doing#so who knooowwwsss#rambles#funny enough coloring has become my favorite part of the process now. it used to be lineart. now lineart annoys me LOL#i also feel like i kinda lost my ability to write which has been frustrating but im focusing on art first#anyways that’s a whole different tangent rant over

As someone who barely plays FR anymore I keep being jumpscared by the new genes in the scryshop. Like oh god who ARE you we’re only supposed to have like 2 wildly accent colored pri/secondaries. Where is my beautiful wife pinstripe where is my wonderful husband poison

Maybe a super specific issue to me but I recognized Savannah in the scryshop by looking for the H. So i'll have to learn a new way to find it quickly now that it's been changed to Savanna :(

Hi! Would you be willing to show me how to order layers and draw on them to preserve shadows/lines/etc? I'm using Clip Studio Paint and I imagine the process would be similar in other programs, but knowing how to order my drawing with the base layers and then removing everything to get the site-submittable version with shadows is the hardest part for me. Is the elements friendly version easier to use for this?
Thank you! I love your artwork.
I also use CSP! My process is very simple. I draw my entire skin on a new canvas using a scryshop dragon I download and resize up to my working size. (I resize to 1250px because that's what works best for me and my 6px default round brush, but the official psds are 750.)
All of my 'skin' working layers are contained in a single folder (with an optional clipping mask in the shape of the dragon, so nothing goes out of bounds.) I've taken a screenshot of my FF entry for you. The working skin folder is collapsed to show you the setup. Everything in there is just the lineart and coloring that I drew.
I don't actually use the official template psd in any way EXCEPT at the end when my skin is already done. I pull these two - clip lines and clip shadows - out and copypaste them over to my working canvas. Left is official template psd, right is my canvas. I just clip them both onto the folder containing the skin I've made.
Then at the end, I turn off the dragon and BG layer and save the entire thing as a png to resize. You're done!

hey do you think anyones tried to fork the scrying workshop? ive been locked out of my account for like a year now and i rlly want to use it but like. it needs an account. i just want to maks my blorbos as dragons im not quite sure why it needs an account
No idea, friend.
I think I remember someone maybe toying with a similar idea, but no clue if it ever happened or if there's any legality / ToS issues with that.
Also I know you can screw around with the scryshop URLs to change the genes so a spreadsheet that does it isn't impossible at all. I'd do it myself if I had a day or two free.

every so often I go into the scryshop and come up with something that is almost, ALMOST, ALMOST!!! good on Kyrsten and then I cry
(pink/denim/rust will haunt me forever)
#i cannot scatter or sell her you see she's a) my head medic#b) the first egg I've ever hatched. she's also almost completely hidden under skin and apparel#cas: kyrsten

Made a challenge for myself to make my blood moon hatches into Bloodborne fandragons no matter what, not being allowed to trade them out or scatter them or anything and....well. I got some....interesting hatches here lmao
Yharnam (left) is pretty decent- with peacock, silver, and rust, she hits the colour scheme close enough, but Yahar’gul?? Dear lord
If anyone has any scries or suggestions, I’m open to help! Yharnam’s id is 48711957, and Yahar’gul’s is 48712389
