Just to make a point, every time I finished a panel of this I would export it as a PNG on the perceptual setting and use it as a color reference for the next panel

IT'S BAD

PLEASE CHECK YOUR COLOR SETTINGS

EDIT: If you're still having problems, it might help to switch from "Save/Save as" to "Export (as a) Single Layer". Just. Make SURE the box labeled "Expression Color" is set to RGB. I've been messing with this all day, and it looks like this combination of settings will allow exported PNGs to maintain their colors perfectly. To you. So far both Discord and Toyhouse still only display desaturated images and I cannot for the life of me figure out why

I bought the worst blue paint- it looks nice in the tube but it’s really semi transparent and streaky and I should have known there’s no such thing as fluorescent blue. I tried to use its streakiness to a stylistic advantage here and filled the canvas with ripples. But the texture is kind of gross, like it was painted with some kind of blue sauce. The round brushes I used didn’t help- kinda looks like I smeared it all around with my finger. Maybe this could be the foundation of an ok painting? Maybe I should just throw out paint when the quality disappoints me…

really helpful technique ^ once you know how to divide by halves and thirds it makes drawing evenly spaced things in perspective waaay easier:

recent dreams I have had

-My bed was a monster that ate me.

-I was served raw chicken and I ate it. It tasted realistically fucked up.

-There was a wobbly boy you had to be careful around because if you bumped into him by accident he might break.

-I was clinging for dear life to the side of a cliff and an old lady at the top told me not to be scared because she used to do what I was doing every day.

I go WILD when a movie/comic style goes between this:

Big inspiration right now

Note: I'm a 1997 baby, so obviously my choices are largely influenced by what was popular when I was in school - and what was popular with my friend group.

This was my first time working with leather because I got a burning desire for a bag shaped like a horseshoe crab. It has two zippered compartments, and an adjustable strap so it can be worn at my side as a cross-body bag or on my back more like a backpack.
