#and drawing a billion lines?????

Just found out that drawing is all about putting lines in the right spots and people don't just KNOW where everything goes. What.
#my entire life i thought that artists could just figure out where things go with like maybe two or three lines tops#so when i drew i didnt really do guide lines or anything like that#i just kinda tried to figure out if stuff was even/placed right by looking#and now youre telling me i shouldve been busting out a ruler ?????#and drawing a billion lines?????#boy was i wrong!#im trying to learn how to draw bc i wanna draw avie with a face for those curious#and i was like “well. you gotta start watching tutorials and stop being afraid to fail."#I WAS ALWAYS AFRAID BC I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS ACCEPTABLE TO JUST. HAVE A WHOLE BUNCH OF LINES.#CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW SILLY I FEEL RN

Interlude 0-1
[Previous] [Beginning] [Next]
Swirling clouds encircle the summit of Star Reach, stirred as if by a breeze.
No wind blows here in StarClan. Frostcrest settles delicately beside the leader she had in life, curling her tail neatly over her paws.
“She’s hardly more than a kit, Pitchstar.”
“Moonpaw will not fall,” The old, dark bengal replies. His eyes are fixed unwaveringly on the churning, writhing clouds below him. Frostcrest’s gaze drifts to it. A blurry, rippled image of her son floats amidst the mist. He pads along a mountain trail, unaware that the eyes of StarClan are upon him.
Frostcrest’s face twitches, her whiskers tightening.
“After all,” Pitchstar continues, “she has her brother with her.”
[Previous] [Beginning] [Next]
#clangen#warrior cats#wc#waca#interlude 0-1#pitchstar#frostcrest#fogpaw#moonpaw#omg this is so exciting im only on the second comic page but im GETTING SOMEWHERE#and i have like 8 billion thumbnails drawn for the next few moons itll just take me a bit to line and color everything#WHEEEE STARCLAN#oops just realized i was so excited to post this that i forgot to draw fog's lil fur fluffies#the devil is in the details as they say

[You don’t even need to be good at art to draw blorbos or things you like because I spent the past hour painting on a physical piece of paper and it looks abstract in a way that leans towards being ugly and unskilled in technique, but that doesn’t really matter because it was fun.]
#ttpoilog#I haven’t drawn traditionally in 5 billion years#so picking up painting first instead of line work is certainly a choice#sometimes I just don’t feel like drawing on my tablet…

was about to make a post like lol hey is it possible for your art to actively degrade even when you draw every single day for years but the fool forgets practice makes permanent not perfect 🫵
#its like that art meme where u just draw over the same lines of something until its just squiggles#talkys#i dont think im ever going to Get it you guys#its so distressing for every drawing to feel like im rolling for skill. bc my brain doesnt hold#onto anything and also theres 500 billion ways to draw 1 single feature#and i get all the wrong worst ones#my favorite thing is how i swiveled to drawing only busts bc i wanted to perfect drawing faces#adn now im not good at drawing faces or bodies <3

I love when you see a Twitter thread that is removed from reality and wild and unhinged but then the response to it is equally so in the complete equal and opposite way
#Sorry for living in an inhospitable food desert like the literally billions of people who can’t easily get groceries delivered lol#Anyway not to draw my lines in the sand but a) fresh healthy groceries are not a luxury they are a bare minimum#Not for every meal no not necessarily for every week but in the long span of human life yes they are!#B) getting fresh healthy groceries is not something that is possible for many many many people#And if your solution is just ORDER GROCERIES TO BE DELIVERED you are JUST as glass towered

anyone else get emotional thinking about orion's belt.
#it's just so distinctive. it has been these incredibly distinctive Feature of the night sky for humanitys existence#and its not like polaris or the sun or the moon it is THREE distinct entities billions of lightyears apart#and it makes a little line. that you can draw a man around. just for us.

efforts in developing winston billions hair geometry; turned to kim possible geometry as a guiding light
#isn't it always. chicken & egg abt that geometric appeal but not like it was the sole animated show seen & enjoyed in those years#(which aren't so strongly aligned w/my later honed Personal Tastes like yep that's sure like thee design approach)#also definitely have this like newspaper comics derived Crisp N Clear Line Design sensibility as a preexisting foundation there#going [difficulty w/a Transition here? i should check like the peak example of that. kim possible Pants into Shoes little swoops approach]#then looking at another Design Reference sheet like hey wait yeah. so true to consider here#then here drawing from memory in one minute for joie de draw / vivre of that#while even at its swoopiest my own style must be a bit more broken up into pieces than that but#pretty quick winstons; thanks too to staying focused on the [argh fr how do i wanna have his hair swoop from this angle]#i like having two hairline scribblies....conversely it's like hmm do i only want one citrus wedge piece of hair drawn at a time....#winston billions#corned beef#kim possible#designs will be in flux eternally but some things are always a bit especially considered / struggled with / honed#and by that i mean most things really lmao. but we are living it up

I really hate all these dumb discourses about Taylor being a billionaire. She is not a cash billionaire- more than half of that reported worth is based of what her music catalog is valued at. Others is her real estate.
It’s so weird when the discourse comes from fans who buy every vinyl and attend multiple shows.
#Merch used to be Bellacanvas which is sweatshop free and based in LA#but UMG merch is handled differently#this was queued but on time#she known to be very generous with all her employees#there’s a reason she’s retained the same people#it’s so weird that billion is where we draw the line#there’s folks who are multi billionaires who made that money off exploiting workers#also 1.1b is hardly even tip of the iceberg#she’s the only one consisting donating to good causes
