Pages from trying to keep a little sketchbook-scrapbook type thing going for two weeks lol. I gave myself specific rules in hopes they might all end up more cohesive/consistent seeming, but alas, scribbly chaos reigns, it seems

A bunch o' WIPs and progress pictures from some of the bigger things I’m currently working on :)

I’m already 12 hours into this over ambitious Pharma painting and I don’t even think I’m halfway done. I started this in late October and I’m taking a bit of a break from it to learn how to paint metal and just get back in the groove of painting things.

MS paint seeker thing I started in the time period where i lost access to photoshop and before i got clip studio (August lol). So far, this has been so FUN to work on and experiment with funky bright colors

And finally, Stormmyyyyy I started a few days ago but he is the saddest guy in the world rn

good morning everyone. today? swatch. tomorrow? who knows......

[b-blushes]

through my awesome powers this morning i managed to do ZERO things on my to-do list and THREE things that were not even existing as tasks to me before the last 12 hours but emerged from the abyss fully formed and 'extremely urgent' #thepowerofnotwantingtoclean

Do you have the whole version of the newspaper

I'm afraid the full version is as big as it gets! But to make up for it here's the text written out (or at least, as far as I needed to fill the screen.)

The news site is called the rather generic NNYC NEWS, and the headline underneath Cody and the turtles ends with "witnesses," presumably saying something along the lines of "discovery of new witnesses." The text below says "...will be testifying..." and "...allegations..." Below Dunn it says "Philanthropist CEO... set for trial on [date]" and below that, "the unfolding story of Darius Dunn's many [crimes]... all of New New York hooked with every new [development]." Above Stockman's photo is the title of his introduction chapter! "Baxter Stockman: New and Improved" "Exclusive interview for the [New Scientist Magazine!]" Written by the talented Aza Glowborn, of course.

I can also offer a previous version, since originally I had been using the wrong dimensions for the layout. Luckily this was caught before I got too far in, and the whole thing got a reformat, while Bishop got redrawn from scratch entirely. Hope you enjoyed!

so csp crashed while i had a file cropped, but I had a previous saved version of [the uncropped document]. unfortunately. upon reboot, clip studio decided to use the cropped version as the Only Version of that file.

i did not have anything synced to the cloud. can't find anything except a png i saved yesterday. i've been workin on this thing for months nooooooooooo

[leos-regression-cove]

I think I'd enjoy drawing more if my art program didn't crash after every brush stroke. :./

Anyone have good free art software recommendations for laptops

[hershelchocolateart]

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

HOW TO GLAZE YOUR WORK WITHOUT A GOOD PC(or on mobile)/TIPS TO MAKE IT LESS VISIBLE

Glaze your work online on:

Cara app. It requires you to sign up but it is actually a good place for your portfolio. Glazing takes 3 minutes per image and doesn't require anything but an internet connection compared to 20-30 minutes if your pc doesn't have a good graphic card. There IS a daily limit of 9 pictures tho. Glazed art will be sent to you after it's done, by email. It took me 30 minutes to glaze 9 images on a default setting. Cara app is also a space SPECIFICALLY for human artists and the team does everything in their power to ensure it stays that way.

WebGlaze. This one is a little bit more complicated, as you will need to get approval from the Glaze team themselves, to ensure you're not another AI tech bro(which, go fuck yourself if you are). You can do it through their twitter, through the same Cara app(the easiest way) or send them an email(takes the longest). For more details read on their website.

Unfortunately there are no ways that I know of to use Nightshade YET, as it's quite new. Cara.app definitely works on implementing it into their posting system tho!

Now for the tips to make it less visible(the examples contain only nightshade's rendering, sorry for that!):

Heavy textures. My biggest tip by far. Noise, textured brushes or just an overlay layer, everything works well. Preferably, choose the ones that are "crispy" and aren't blurred. It won't really help to hide rough edges of glaze/nightshade if you blur it. You can use more traditional textures too, like watercolor, canvas, paper etc. Play with it.

Colour variety. Some brushes and settings allow you to change the colour you use just slightly with every stroke you make(colour jitter I believe?). If you dislike the process of it while drawing, you can clip a new layer to your colour art and just add it on top. Saves from the "rainbow-y" texture that glaze/nightshade overlays.

Gradients(in combination with textures work very well). Glaze/nightshade is more visible on low contrast/very light/very dark artworks. Try implementing a simple routine of adding more contrast to your art, even to the doodles. Just adding a neutral-coloured bg with a darker textured gradient already is going to look better than just plain, sterile digital colour.

And finally, if you dislike how glaze did the job, just try to glaze/shade it again. Sometimes it's more visible, sometimes it's more subtle, it's just luck. Try again, compare, and choose the one you like the most. REMEMBER TO GLAZE/SHADE AFTER YOU MADE ALL THE CHANGES, NOT BEFORE!!

If you have any more info feel free to add to this post!!
