Ur art has gotten so good lately! Are there any tips you can share? :0

THIS IS GONNA GET LONG! ALSO THANK YOU!

Honestly? Find a character you really adore and just KEEP drawing them. Find anything, ocs, fanart, etc. As long as you stay positive about your art you'll improve.

There will be a spot in your progress where you'll think you've gotten worse, but really that's just you beginning to notice things more about art (how anatomy works, movement, sizes, shape). Once you can get past this hurdle (and this is why having a character you love to draw is super important) you'll begin to become more comfortable with testing the limits of art.

REFERENCES & MOOD BOARDS ARE KEY. Don't feel bad about taking aspects from artists you like (or even cartoons/shows), that's how we learn. Not everything is just "mimic from real life" because it's good to see how other artists make things works and push the boundaries of real life.

Doodle. Doodling and sketching is so important. Learn to do gesture drawings, line of action, learn how things just move and flow. Stiffness in art is a big hurdle to get over.

Also learn to be comfortable having other people (friends) view your art and be able to take wanted constructive criticism.

And final, what's helped me a lot: Don't feel like you have to make perfect pieces. Draw things that you're not fully sure how to draw. Attempt to draw armor, attempt to draw animals, people, hands, backgrounds. If it doesn't turn out how you want yet, just remember. You don't draw the same way when you did when you were like 10 or 12. You'll improve at your own pace :).

i love pitting classically trained magic users against self-taught magic users in sci-fi/fantasy but it shouldn’t be snobbish disdain for them it should be terror

Izen and Phaela destroy me in such a beautiful way :’)

Phaela belongs to @couchtaro and i stg our rp is basically just “let me say such sweet and sincere things to you that carry a profound sadness if you look just a lil deeper” 🙃

I love building small cottages and the like, but back in 2020 I build this huge temple on an smp!!! Never again! I died so many times falling off…

I wish I could post more angles but the world is gone now and this is all I posted online at the time :(

Hello fictional man, you badly need therapy. Unfortunately, what I'll be giving you instead is men and more feelings.
