Day 265

#Day 265 #47 Minutes #Painting Practice #TREES #Okay so obviously this has major issues and I was rushing so I just chose a color of contrast #Not taking time to find a good color #I wanted to see if my theories on form would work so it wasn't a big concern #BUT #I think it did! I think my theories hold water!#That said it's still messy but I have something I can work with now

Man meets Morbol

#ffxiv #sketch #zenos yae galvus #adventurer zenos #oc #tsukiko date #camilla lunae #as per the rules of fighting games- blocking is all well and good until something finally decides to grab you instead #or- how durante's challenge to zenos backfires horribly #independent- face-tanker zenos learns the meaning of waiting for his party LOL #I also want to make another garlean armor set for zenos- so its time for me to be toying with a couple of different designs #I just know I want it to be the opposite of his original 'demon' armor #with the new one more focused on movement and the intake/focus of aether- an angel theme and im thinking of #giving the armor the color palatte of Kain's sanctified armor because... hehehe-#so the one here is basically the first draft of that LOL #...I will fully acknowledge that I treat the man like a dress up doll- he's very fun to design outfits for #zenos' iron stomach does not appreciate meeting its match in the form of taking on a morbol's power head on #dont mind this also just being inspired by the 1.0 trailer- I will always find it so funny that poor meteor's first bit of action we see #is against one of these damned things #so I had to make it so zenos unintentionally follows his long forgotten footsteps

Here’s another idea:

Jed, Octavius, and their Minecraft-axolotl-turned-living-plushie Flapjack

This is flapjack, and he predates my NatM fixation

Oh to be little miniature figures kissing on an axolotl plushie

oh i never posted this (cuickly cleans up the speech bubbles and format)

that one episode where sara made gumball into a superhero. um. molly threw herself at him, out of the blue, fully trusting he would save her, and before we figure out that its because sara has changed the narrative so everyone believes he is a real true superhero, um, i mean.

he did drag molly out of hell once

here, i added it. because the way my heart stops when she says "save me! like you saved-" and i think shes gonna say something like the shit in the comic. is good. share it with me.

#he's her hero. she trusts him. full-heartedly. and she never got to bring it up to him or talk to anyone about it. but.#she could mayb throw herself at him to see him smile at her remembering the time he came to hell to take her home:) but he doesnt. remember #sorry every time i pull an old comic out it like. starts out colored then turns gray. i like gray its sooooo much easier #tawog #gumball #molly #rob #digital #'youre a VILLAIN! you MONOLOGUE.'#if gumball has no memory of the void then that remote ep must have been insane. hes like.#where the FUCK ARE WE #eyestrain #idk if the static looks harsh. i can never find a good free use static so im stuck with this low quality one

#At the training center when Peeta showed Katniss his camouflaged arm #She mentions how good the lighting of the painting is #She's skeptical about him being able to replicate so well how the sun looks when it comes through the foliage #Given that the closest he usually got to something similar is the only tree that his family has at the bakery #But is so easy to picture a tiny Peeta getting the trash out and being mesmerized by the current state of the sky #And probably getting scolded by that moldy bread that was his mother for “taking too long” to coming back #But stubbornly holding onto this habit and never letting go #And just keeping admiring the sky #Because it does have the prettiest colors at sunrise (when bakers are already up)#And at sundown (everyone knows what that means)#Or whenever clouds decide to look like they'd be an absolute delight to get close to #Katniss mentions there's not much beauty to look at in their district #But Peeta's eyes got trained with time to know where to find it #the hunger games #peeta mellark #catching fire #mockingjay #thg

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

my pieces got accepted to the local museum ! i was quite sure they'd been rejected because i was supposed to hear back over 2 weeks ago, but i guess there were just time issues. am very happy about this !

#found out this morning that my work account was hacked and my last paycheck was diverted to somebody else's bank account #which ate up my entire morning figuring out and has been incredibly stressful. it sounds like whether they can recover the money or not #i will still get my paycheck but the person i spoke to couldnt tell me when bc it has to be looked at by specialists #its also rent paying time so that was the worst possible timing for this to happen and sucks so bad.#so finding out my pieces were accepted and at least im getting a paycheck from that is very relieving #i also realized last night that the colors on the blanket are scaring me #in that i dont know if they actually work or not after all... i just made a little pin loom square with them to see it with the weft #its drying rn ill take a picture soon for comments if i can get the colors right #anyway. yeah so some good news is very appreciated right now for sure

i like overthink everything now it makes me feel so dumb. i used 2 be able to just talk 2 ppl but nowadays every single thing im like Is that actually going to make them hate me. Yes probably. and then i just dont respond which makes ppl hate me. this is how it is

#ive been overthinking 1 light and casual mildly funny response to something but im worried itll come off as disrespectful and dismissive And #make me seem stupid and uncaring all at the same time. and also be seen as insulting. but like idt itd be insulting right like. im not #saying what it is so ig for all you guys know im like I mean if i say All your shit suck ball and i hateit kys. <- thats not the thing i was #going to say #like it doesnt matter now the window for response is closed now but i feel stupid bc i shouldve just said it it was light and casual. im so #bad at keeping convos gojng im convinced im not going to survive. In like a light and casual way like in a He will not make it through the #winter joke way. dw. im not going to do anything bc i had One failed interaction. if i was going to do anythjng itd be bc of the 8000000 #other failed interactions. But im not. anyways. it just makes me feel so useless 😭 like i want to respond i want to talk to ppl so bad but #i feel like i mess things up Irreparably every time i speak OR i take too LONG overthinking my response and then i just cant respond bc its #been too long and then its been 3 years and the only messages ive ever sent r my intro message and 1 message 2 years ago that nobody #responded to at all. or the conversation stopped immediately after. and like i used to be better at this i was lkke. talkative in a couple #muts servers like. i talked 2 ppl daily in those servers and i had fun and like. I was an important part of the group and i felt like it #but i just feel like such an outsider for Everything and its literally my fault bc i cant just like. Talk. The explosion. bc im always like #im gonna try im gonna do it this time im gonna get it back im going to finally be Good connor and im going to fix it all and make a Good #solid friend group and ill find HEALTHY LOVE and i wont selfsabotage and ill move out and have a job and ill balance it well and ill start #all my hobbies and ill have a great routine and be so loveable and on top of it and not stressed and content and happy and roll with the #punches and then theres a single hiccup and im like Well fuckinf whatever im going to be an unemployed hermit forever and im going to die b4 #im 25 anyways so Who cares and also im digging a little hole for myself. and its like. AUGHH ik i just have to persevere and overcome but #even saying that feels so stupid its not fucking hard its Talking to ppl. like. i literally if ive ever said a word to you i had to think #avt it and strategize how to respond right even for like. like. it makes it sound like its not genuine it is #like for example i want to say hey i love your art! but then i freak out and im like thats not normal thats like a rly generic comment they #hear that all the time theyll thjnk im being polite and my brains like hrmmm rewrite Your art changed my life. It shaped me. Ill never be #the same. Nad im like ok too far overcorrected go back and the sentence generator is like Your art has colors 💯 like. GOD. WHY IS IT SO #difficult. and then usually i either just dont say anythinf and feel awful abt it 4ever OR i send it on anon and then i spend like 15 #minutes ibsessively slightly tweaking the apelling and capitalization and punctuation to make sure it doesnt seem like its me just in case #it Is the worst possible thing to say but then i see the response and itll be like AWWW TYSM :] THIS MEANS A LOT or whathaveyou and i feel #stupid bc i couldve just Told them this to their face and it wouldve been a good positive interaction we had. but instead i had 2 hide and #tyoe entirely differently so they couldnt sniff me from my typing style. and it soesnt even feel like the thanks is actually 4 me bc i #tweaked the message sm. and it still makes me happy that the oersons hapoy but its like. that couldve been a nice mutual interaction #like not that i need a personal ty i compliment ppl when i Want to compliment ppl and when its genuine yk. i dont do it so i get mutualpoint

Simi with Seb taking Kimi's hand in the paddock for the shipper drawing? Ferrari Simi? 🥺♥️

“One last walk?”

“It won't be the last.”

“Only as teammates.”

#i'm sorry i still can't find my style i don't even know what the hell i'm doing #simi #my art #also an interesting discovery for me is that they wear their watches on the opposite hands 😃#and that kimi used to have a smiling sun tattoo but got it covered 🌞#also i gave my tears for it so for the other two drawing prompters: there's a high chance that i'll do sketches too because coloring...#is a struggle. for real. and it takes a long time. and i wanna try different styles and sketches and things like that. i hope it's okay #also sorry if i fucked up something like tattoos or team kit or race suit design i wasn't here when they were teammates so i had to rely on #google for pics and i don't know if it was a good idea or not

i know that when carlo suddenly decided that he needs to marry guy made a whole list in his head n like had a deadlines n shit. like it was some kind of a task he needed to do

#whole fkin campaign. idk still not sure how it was but man was in his peacock era for sure #n it's like i need to find a wife i need to make it in 2 (or whatever) months etc etc #but its like a bg task n he didn't speak bout it w others. like he just said that he needs to marry #also idk if i mentioned this but i wrote lauretta/carlo first meet long ago n she was w her fiance #i just listened to “pretty music” again sorry. i like that uh governor or tf this character is #changes his behaviour from one woman to another so real. n that fkin “but im a lucky guy who gets to dance w u”#and “since u know what i need i'll even take your lead” <- fr like im sure lauretta screwed him for several times #just to see if he's really serious good old manipulations w men nothing new nothing superstitious #upd. he probably made a mind budget for this (i mean finding a wife)#n bout lauretta screwing carlo its like in this ukranian song Ти ж мене пiдманула ти ж мене пiдвела #but since he's a strategist he's patient (like i wanted to accent this quality sm i wrote #that carlo started thinkin bout taking moretti's place back in 1932)#anyway. “Challenge accepted” situation and idk fr for some reason when it's carlo eddie lauretta it's always bout playing #so lauretta started playing n he entered this play too. i don't even think he was exactly mad (maybe only for the 1st time)#at this point i have a clear image of how they met n their first dates (cringe word) n how he proposed #ie how it started how it ended. ending was fast i believe (deadline is approaching 🤯)#what was in between i don't exactly know but i wondered just now if he also screwed lauretta (i think yes)#bc i don't knooowwww frrr all this is so bout playing to me #but bout ending its like. boss fight (<- sex) game credits (<- marriage) ((speedrun))#also i was thinkin if he even ever met lauretta's parents (i always thought that no but idk)#can imagine lauretta calling carlo a good friend. i also hm ok #i started to write a comic like a month ago just bout falcone polycule n it starts w #carlo who says that he finally needs to get married n lauretta's mother askin (in a pushing way) why #her n her fiance still aren't married like girl tf. she jinxed it i guess #upd. carlo/lauretta is funny in my head bc right before marriage he did fell in love lauretta didn't but guy's profitable we'll take him👍#she did only after marriage i think bc it was the time when u can finally relief bc it's over #u don't need to think bout no yes no no yes yes will it work or won't etc #woman was able to fucking chill at last. she got the money sorry i mean the man #he's not runnin away let's finally look who the fuck is even this man. why he won't shut up bout astronomy can i get a divorce <- jk #but yeah “я тобi брехала” is so lauretta right after marriage to me (“i dont even know the color of ur hair”)

I'm back everyone! Just gonna take it easy for now. I still have some things to finish, and need to focus on my mental health. Just been distressed with anger and sadness, but I've been finding ways to soothe my negative emotions

#tippy rambles #weirdly enough coloring in coloring books helps me a lot- its a good distraction from the hurt /genuine #plus pretending vanilla is motivating me to do chores and take care of myself genuinely helps me out #although i will admit- i think one of the reasons for my mood is i have been forcing myself to keep my room clean every night and-#vacuum and do laundry every thursday... the adhd really disliked that. so maybe the rigid routine makes me feel trapped-#so im trying to find a way to keep my spaces clean consistently while at the same time not stressing out

actually yeah im making a quick poll on this. for anyone who has been around long enough to remember when i made my massive clamp readathon situation (in which i read every single one of the works they put out) be everyones problem. hi. im doing it again but much worse now. reading about 400 volumes (and more if i can find more) of tezuka osamu's work. i am just curious on the general consensus of if i should upload thoughts as i read each one (ie: one post being like i finished kimba/jungle kingdom, heres my thoughts) or just have a MASSIVE post of hey. read them all heres my thoughts (as i did with clamp. which is when i found out tumblr had a max text limit)

#twist rambles #i KNOW this is smth most of u do not care about. however comma. im curious what would be better. esp as like... about 50?? i think percent #of these have no translation fan or official. so its smth where i think discussing the plot/characters/art or whatever could be fun :)#but its also like. obviously a lot. for comparison the clamp stuff was abt 90 volumes (half of them being holic and trc). so this is far #worse. i could read all of naruto 5.5 times over in the time this will take me to complete it. so its smth where i do want to like... get #opinions on. either way i dont plan on liveblogging for most of it other than if i find a silly panel (the really good mw panels u will #ALWAYS be famous <- i post them every time i read i think. theyre very good to me). i do however plan on coloring a panel or page from each #series as my OWN personal way of having a physical way of holding onto my memories w it. sorry this is so long and rambly but im gearing up #for this massive project and by god i need to get ppl to read dor.oro. <- my goal or something. please. its very good.#tzkposting #<- all of my posting abt this will/has been under this tag so its not... in the main tags lmao.#sorry for the rambling but. hi. please vote :3 im making a big spreadsheet for stuff bc like... a lot of his stuff is hard to source so onc #im done w that nightmare situation ill probably post that somewhere bc the days of work ive done on all this should be put out there lol #gonna srb this a few times through the day to get like... an idea of what ppl would prefer :)

I hate how if you do art ppl will tell you to do something more valuable with your time. Dont get me wrong, they'll tell you your art looks so nice and stuff but then turn around right after like they didnt just say that and spout 'advice' at you. I hate how you have to prove the value in something to make it seem worthwhile. Like no Nisha, i dont do art because im good at it, i do it stay sane. I do it because it makes me happy. I do it because i stopped for a year and it was the most miserable year of my life. I dont care that it doesn't 'have value'. Shut up.

#esha rambles #art #what even decides the value of something?#does something that makes you happy not have value if its not making or going to make you money?#i hate this society that places so much value in time=productivity/money #what about happiness?? mental health???#ppl keep discussing declining mental health in society like its some big mystery #like idk have y'all ever thought maybe its the fact that everything we do has to have some kind of profit for it to have value?#i cant sit and think about life enough to find the beauty in it #every time i sit still all i feel is anxiety about life‚ the things happening in this world‚ whether I'll even get a job in the future #and thats not even scratching the surface #im feeling the anxiety crawling up right now as i sit and write this #and you know when i wasnt feeling this anxiety? WHEN I WAS PAINTING SMTH #im not even good at painting‚ i dont know enough about composition and color theory and hell about how the paint works #but GOD it gives me peace #i feel peaceful when im painting flowers #even if they look a bit weird and flawed‚ those are the only flaws in something of mine that i dont mind #i hate that people are alwas trying to take that away from me #i hate that i let them once #the tags are a bit big im sorryyyy #i just had to get it off my chest
