how long does it take you to draw your sketches/doodles? also do you have any tips to draw faster? 🙇‍♀️

I generally take 30 - 60 minutes a sketch,,,, but honestly really depends on how detailed it is.

Like a Chibi will be done in 20 - 25 minutes (Counting in the extra time I spend on minute details like a perfectionist 😭)

I for some reason really like spending egregious amounts of time on random objects too??? Unless it’s the in the background, I’ll spend 40 minutes refining it.

Random characters that are fully colored and rendered with take like 80 minutes.

The comics take usually take an hour or two per page. (If I decide to cross hatch it, my entire day will be gone with 4 pages… so I’ve been trying to find shortcuts. But not without sacrificing the quality for time lol)

I don’t think there’s any trick or magic to drawing faster. It’s really about weaponizing your artistic knowledge, and finding what’s comfortable or convenient for you!

There was a period of time where I would spend 11 or 12 hours on an illustration, and it wASS UGLYYYYY. (Some of these artworks are still available on my tumblr,,, but it’s SO LONG AGO, AND IT WAS MY 1ST OR 2ND YEAR GETTING INTO DIGITAL ART)

Overtime I learned what worked best for me, and practiced till I felt more comfortable with what I was drawing. Eventually I managed to shorten the time to 4 hours or less! Ambition was my biggest enemy but at the same time my biggest motivator. (And it still is LMFAO) 😭

EDIT (bit more to my way too long tangent): ALSO??? BRO DON’T BE AFRAID TO USE YOUR MESSY SKETCH AS LINEART OR DRAW ON TOP OF IT. I’VE DONE IT FOR YEARS NOW AND IT ADDS SUCH A GOOD EXTRA BIT OF TEXTURE,, AT THIS POINT I DON’T EVEN USE LINE-ART ANY MORE UNLESS IT’S A COMMISSION,, (IT’LL ADD LIKE AN 2-4 HOURS TO MY WORK)

#mushyrt #asks #that word minute bothers me so much #I look at it and want to refer to it as the time minute #this sketch took about 3 minutes when it should’ve been 1 minute #BUT I WAS SO HYPERFIXATED ON THE EYESSS #i say these pretty words #but THE REAL TIP IS HONESTLY THE LASSO TOOL #LASSO TOOL IS THE BEST #IT’S MY FAVORITE TOOL FOR MAKING BACKGROUNDS OR QUICK SHADING OR COLORING #OR ALSO THE MASK TOOL #TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM #THEY’RE SO GOOD #Procreate mask tool kinda sucksss #SO USE ALPHA LOCK IF YOU ARE A CONFIDENT PERSON #OR NOT AFRAID TO F**K UP #Bro I sometimes draw on 1 layer and use alpha lock and my friends look at me like I’m a menace #BUT IT!S USEFULLLL AND SO EASY #This little tangent definitely should’ve been my answer for the ‘how much do you draw’ question #but I’ve been thinking about it for a long time #AND I’M A MANIAC WHEN IT COMES TO DRAWING 😭😭#even if you rob me of a paper or pencil I WILL FIND A WAY TO DRAW #I WILL SCRATCH INTO YOUR SHIRT AND ROCKS AND MAKE AN ARTWORK OUT OF WATER OR CAT FUR #YOU WILL NOT DEPRIVE ME OF MY CREATIVE ENDEAVORS #This didn’t stick out to me until one of my friends said ‘omg ofc she’s drawing’ under her breath #like I spend every second of free time I have drawing unless I find something else interesting #The only time I’m not drawing is when I’m on the toilet or doing random everyday stuff #I forgot to talk about this but greyscale to color is insanely useful too; it teaches you different values while also being super fast #i tend to use greyscale to color when I do a BW sketch I end up liking #TL;DR - Lasso Tool + Layer Mask + Alpha Lock + Sketch as lineart

"It's dark and lonely. Where did I go wrong?" Day Two of @byler-week! Now it's Mike's turn for the standard, but not-so-standard (but just equally as devastating) angst. Will it get better tomorrow? Stay tuned to find out!

Today's Prompts were: Light, Paranormal, Communicating, Green/Purple Color Scheme

Part One

#cadetart #I really wanted to experiment with a style that A. suited Mike and B. experiment with the lasso tool on Clip Studio #and I am pleasantly surprised at how it turned out!#I used to use Procreate and I'm sorry Procreate users...#the lasso tool... isn't the best...#BUT IT STILL RULES THO LOL #also shirtgate reference in pages three and four??? more likely than you may think ;-)#don't wanna spoil ALL the symbolism...#but I love shirtgate so I had to shout it out in the tags :-)#byler #bylerweek #bylerweek2024 #byler nation #byler fanart #stranger things #will byers #mike wheeler #shirtgate

I'm so excited for what season 10 is going to bring!! I really like grians approach of taking things slowly and I think it's going to be interesting to watch as the season progresses.

#Also!!! I finally found a way of coloring that I like and is quick!! (Me and the lasso fill tool have become best friends)#grian #grian fanart #hermitcraft #hermitcraft season 10 #hermitcraft grian #mcyt fanart #fanart #my art

I'm suffering and distracting myself with writing, enjoy a snippet on the beautiful and the damned of it all!

“What book?” Skye asks, brow furrowed in curiosity. Jamie sighs, shaking his head out like it might get rid of the fuzzy edges of anger that have settled between his ears. “It was this thing he did when he first came to coach us all yeah?” He explains, tired all of a sudden. He hadn’t felt much of anything, the first time he read the book, to focused on just fucking finishing it to think much about why Ted had actually given it too him. It wasn’t until his third time reading it that it clicked, and Jamie had gotten this sudden rush of shame-anger-horror that still settled heavy in his throat every time he picked the book up again. “Gave everyone books that reminded him of them, or that he wanted us to learn a lesson from or something. He gave me The Beautiful and The Damned, guess I was supposed to be a stand in for Anthony fucking Patch.” “Excuse me?” Skye asked, blinking at Jamie in shock with a deceptively light voice considering the wave of absolute outrage that had overtaken her face. She looked downright murderous, in a way Jamie had only witnessed once before, when McKay had tried to pull one of her students up for being dressed inappropriately because their school dress was ‘too short’ and ‘distracting the boys’. “you're telling me that he’s the one who gave you that stupid fucking book?”

#wip stuff #asteria answers asks #jamie tartt #ted lasso #to all the better places #teacher jamie au #skye goodwin #kareem aksoy #is also in the scene but not in this snippet #Jamie's friends vs their absolute outrage at the way richmond perceives their best friend #me having Jamie pick up a copy of the beautiful and the damned in the first chapter of this story: it's a surprise tool to help us later

there’s knowing that Roy Kent’s being sent off at the age of nine by his family was probably understood as a necessary sacrifice for the financial future of the family and then there’s knowing that Roy would have been born in the mid-80s right in the middle of thatcher administration and the era of austerity.

#my post #roy kent #ted lasso #ted lasso show #ted lasso tv #sports remains one of the few viable ways for radical economic class transformation #roy kent already has communication issues #and i would argue his anger functions as a tool of emotional simplification and repression #imagine a nine year old trying to talk about his problems with his family knowing when they are far away they cant get to him #and if he fails or wants to leave he is killing one of their best chances of making it out of poverty #roy kents childhood of poverty was when the social safety net was threadbare in the places it wasn't being hacked to pieces
