i am in love with the 80s anime aesthetic you used for that amethyst drawing!! what programm do you usually use for drawing and how did you create that fuzzy effect?

hank you, im really glad you like it! I usually use SAI to draw and Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 (yes its absolutely ancient i knooow) to add certain effects i cant quite recreate in SAI

to get that fuzzy effect, i have the entire image on one layer and duplicate it, changing the opacity of the copy to around 30-40%

then i hide the copy for a bit, and select the background. there, i apply the “diffuse” filter found right here:

the “lighten only” mode, creates a base to get that “scanned pencil lines” look which helps to make it look more like a screencap of an older anime. 

(i found that this works best with clear lines and cell shading)

then, still on the background layer, i get a gaussian blur filter going, found over here:

a radius of 1-2 pixels blurs the whole deal out a little to make it look like its a good ol low quality screencap

then i go back to the other layer and, using the same gaussian blur filter but a radius of 15-20 pixels, get that foggy feel going!

this step is the most important as it creates that dreamy, foggy feeling which helps to make it look like ye olde animes

lastly, i clean up some highlights that might’ve gotten washed away by all the blurring, and we’re done!

of course you can always do more things like add a texture to make it a little grainy, or resize the canvas to fit the average dimensions for most old animes, or do something difficult and technical with the colors which i know nothing about, but i feel like this process is a pretty alright method to satisfy those ~ a e s t h e t i c ~ cravings!

(quick before/after)

i hope this helps, im sorry this turned out so long…..feel free to ask me to clarify if anything isnt clear!

I got a lot of asks about this so I made a tutorial on how I was able to emulate the 80s aesthetic, please keep in mind I’m not an expert and what I put here is just what I personally did. I hope you guys like it and hope it helps

go crazy kids

Hi Elisabeth! Im amazed at how you do your GIFs?? Its so pretty! If its OK to ask, how do you manage to make the subtitles in one gif to have multiple dialogues? It disappears then another new dialogue comes on!

hey, I’m so happy to hear that you think my gifs are pretty :) thank you so much! I put together a short guide for you on how I do it~ If you still don’t understand, then please let me know and I’ll try to explain it in more detail.

Korean Slang/Common Expressions:

This is a list of all the slang that I know and have used when speaking Korean. But this isn’t a full list of all slang in Korean. There are tons that I don’t know, but I will guarantee, that if you use these to a Korean person, they will most likely be surprised that a foreigner knows Korean slang. Without further adieu, let’s go!

Expressions: ♡ 짱! - amazing! ♡ 아싸! - yay! ♡ 헐 - oh my god… ♡ 대박 - awesome! ♡ 우와 / 와 - wow! ♡ 아! - ouch! ♡ 어머 - oh my

Feelings: ♡ 꿀잼 - really funny (재밌어요) ♡ 노잼 - not funny ♡ 웃프다 - funny but sad ♡ 근자감 - a lot of self confidence ♡ 멘붕 - mental breakdown ♡ 케미 - chemistry (for lovebirds)
