Im sorry if this is a dumb question but what does skeb style mean? ;n;
not dumb at all, it's a relatively new phenomenon that got its name from the japanese commission website, skeb!
the general concept of skeb is that you send an artist the character(s) you'd like drawn, and then let them have artistic liberty on how they illustrate that character (so no WIPs or revisions unless there's a mistake)!
the idea was really widely liked, so artists outside of japan also started adopting it with their own variations!
here's an illustrated crash-course:
#answers#anon#vgen#skeb#basically think of it like a surprise commission!#the general idea can also always be found in my commission descriptions! ⸜( ´ ꒳ ` )⸝#the beauty of skeb is that it allowed people outside of japan to support japanese artists w/o a language barrier!!#and i think western artists really enjoyed the more flexible nature of skeb-like commissions#they're great if you really like an artist's style & trust them to create something you'll like!

countless people told me that my artstyle resembles dredge's so. this was bound to happen. i had to get it out of my system
#digital art#creature#creature design#fish#fish art#dredge#artists on tumblr#this style is so fucking fun tho#specially if you're just using brushes and not the lasso tool to create sharp edges and what not

This Twitter MLP human redesign drama is a mess, leave me the fuck out of it.
#saw people posting my designs to put down other artists' designs saying that i'm the “correct way” of doing things#don't do that#i don't give a SHIT if people are redesigning these HORSES to be fat or “”“ugly”“” people they're all valid#this whole thing is so dumb just say “i don't like the art style” and move on#“hey op i spent 4 hours of time and effort to redraw your shitty redesign and show you how it's really done” you're fucking weird#you know that right? dedicating that much time to cash in on a hate trend when you could be creating something unique and original with lov#your insistence that human redesigns need to be attractive and symmetrical and anything deviating that is woke psy-op brainwashing#is fucking weird. saw an entire tweet reposting my designs listing off how i “got it right.” bullet point: “looks like real people”#the black fat pinkie design with braces that went viral looks more like a real person than any of my designs you asshole#or maybe you spent too much time in high school bullying people who look like that to notice#personal#delete later#do not use my art to belittle artists who've done nothing wrong this legit made me really angry today

the first and only thing ive been able to draw in like a fucking month and its decemberists fanart again
someday i'll regain the ability to draw but for now i think i'll have to settle for generating doodles of ol' will and margie
#character design#the hazards of love#the decemberists#william thol#margaret thol#i'd like to come up with a design for the queen but i'll be real#when i imagine her in my head i imagine her as like. an optical illusion of a face from branches silhouetted against the moon#which is a little too abstract for a cartoon design#i want a studio laika style stop motion animated the hazards of love#or a cartoon saloon animation#artists who like the hazards of love hit me up. the tag for it is literally so dead#we need to create more art of william and margaret. brethren. we must combine forces#this is not fanart of skyjacks

That is all thank you
ANSWERED: Art credit for da first Ren meme goes to @meo-eiru!!
BUT HELPPPPP THESE ARE SO FUNNY JDSGJH T_T The Moth meme + Uno meme had me CACKLING lmaoooooooo
#This has been happening a lot recently (and is by no means directed to OP) but!! Just a reminder to credit artists if you use their art!!#And it's always better to ask for permission beforehand; some artists don't like havin their art shared / reposted / reuploaded / etc.#They put in effort to create content for you to consume; so it's only fair to give them da proper credit and exposure in return!!#''Credits to the original creator'' and ''I found the image on google / pinterest / etc.'' isn't a good enough excuse >.<#If you can't find the creator; don't share it. And at the very least try to reverse image search to locate the source#But!!!! With all that being said:#Everyone is welcome to use the official 14DWY sprites/game assets without asking for my permission or giving credit!#I personally think it's ok because game assets can be found /within/ the game itself; it's not like folks have to go on a search hunt--#--to find a specific artist. They can find the art/asset within the game without having to do the extra steps.#If that makes any sense??#Like the 14DWY style is fairly recognisable if you're familiar with the game; folks don't need to reverse image search for anything.#Anyways I'm done ranting in da tags#I might make this an actual post in the future because; again; this has been happening a lot recently in the 14dwy tag/my askbox#and all these talented artists don't deserve this ;n;#Plus it shouldn't be my job to be the one giving credit..... T_T /lh /nm#OKOK I'm done for realsies now#Thank you OP for making these memes!! And sorry for ranting on what's supposed to be a lighthearted post dghjdgjhsg ^^;#💜 — 14dwy memes.#💌 — answered.#💖 — 14 days with queue.

Artists on Instagram and tiktok and most other sites are the strongest people on earth because the comments are always fied with so many stupid people. I'd be murdering them if that was on my posts.
People have no idea what the fuck art is.
#for context: a bunch of people hating on someone for creating art in a fun way.#it was abstract art#the person in the video was just throwing paint on the canvas and they were using different objects to make interesting pattens and stuff#and the comments were just FILLED with people going 🤡“#like SHUT THE FUCK UPPPPP.#“i could do this too” OKAY DO IT THEN#ART IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN. THE PERSON IS LITERALLY JUST HAVING FUN#also i hate hate hate when someone posts “bad art” on purpose and the comments tell them how their 3 year old child could do it better-#LIKE OH MY FUCKING GOD. SHUT UR GOD DAMN MOUTH. NO ONE CARES.#THE ART IS BAD ON PURPOSE. ITS THE ART STYLE. THE “UGLY” IS ON PURPOSE. ITS SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE THAT#ALSO. STOP BEING MEAN TO NEW ARTISTS WHO ARE JUST STARTING OUT TOO#LIKE FUCK DUDE#art isnt just realism and proper body proportions its literally whatever the fuck you want it to be#you created something and you had fun doing so? congrats you made art! doesnt matter if its good or not you made it!!! its art!!!!@@#idk people just have no idea what art is.#not every artwork is gonna look like a fucking monet painting

"god I hate people who draw falsettos marvin this way" "fuck people who draw whizzer like that'"
*edited*
...guys, do you know what an art style is???? cuz', this seems pointed. I see what you mean. I completely agree.
But hear me out. Along with these posts, could we consider? Maybe? Some constructive criticism? People should draw them more accurate.
They SHOULD.
But how should they do it? Realism art? It's a foreign concept to me. I try and it absolutely fucking sucks and i'd love to be a part of this fandom showing that the characters are real people but
It's kind of
Just
Very "do this. No other explanation. Change it."
Look, I really want to. And I am trying. But could we like, make a space for teaching people? Cuz I am stumped dude like fr. Need some guidance.
sincerely, a tired lesbian who is infinitely more tired of seeing this everywhere. thanks
#just so we're clear#I obviously understand the main target of this okay#people who draw them like tiny lil anime boys#I get it#but hear me out:#please leave artists alone#thanks#not directed at anyone specifically#just been in my head as of late#let's not attack people#they aren't targeting you#they aren't doing anything to you#if you force people to change art styles because you 'hate theirs so much'#What does that make you?#c'mon man#spread love not hate please#this show wasn't created for you to fucking destroy anyone who's even remotely off script#the opposite actually#give them room to grow please#give ME room to grow#I'm still trying to figure out all the ways to draw them#and as a cartoony artist#these posts really fw my head#please stop posting about how much you hate people who do nothing to you and instead give them points of improvement#anyhow#a rant within a rant#bye bye#falsettos

Have you ever been to earth? If so, how do you feel about humans?
Oh, yes, I have! That... that was quite the experience... !
It was very bright there... very unusual things there. I will admit that humans are quite lovely and cute.. at least most of them
Humans are quite charming, I should say.. one of them actually looked like one of my employees!
Although some humans are just.. pure evil..
If I'm going to be honest here.. I couldn't do anything like any ordinary human does.. eat food.. smell.. taste.. yknow?
For me the hardest part was blending in..
#alien onceler#the onceler#spaceler#starler#alien story#artists on tumblr#onceler askblog#answeredfromspace#omg first question LOLZ#nothing interesting yet ig..#i may not draw in the art style ive used for him since i created him bc the art style is kinda hard for me to draw in 😭 especially the hair#sobs

i miss editing videos :((
#my energy has been so low though#and haven’t really felt inspired#it’s just so time consuming#and tbh… people’s attention spans have become so short but i’m not a fan of these fast paced tiktok style edits#with a bunch of effects vomitted on them :)))#i mean they all have their right to exist and people seem to love them#but they’re really not my jam at all#but as much as i love editing and spending time trying to tell a great story with my vids#it’s hard to motivate myself when people prefer short supercuts over longer videos#and I KNOW i should be creating for myself first and foremost which i really try to do#but sometimes i wonder why i’m putting so much time into those vids when people obv wanna see something else#which is why i just….. don’t anymore…#also the like to reblog ratio is fucking me up so much#and i know artists and writers and gif makers and basically everyone who creates and shares their things on tumblr struggles with this#but i’m asking myself why i put 15-30 hours into one video when people like it and then just….. don’t share it#ugh okay rant over sorry i’m just in a weird mood rn 🙃

I can't wait to use my new bullet journal 🥰
Bonus: My first bullet journal that I've been using for this a d last year. I named it CHONKY (ignore the bottom left sticker, a friend gave it to me. Probably for a reason but ain't gonna talk about that fjgfjffif)
#misc; ooc#//don't ask me how it turned looking like one of those scrapbooks on tik tok I don't have the amswer to that lmao#//but it's been great in terms of learning what works for me and not#//i'd say for me I mostly focus on the drawing aspect of it more than the actual journaling tbh I just love drawing#//while i have a separate planner notebook for my schedule and tasks and shit like that#//i'm just a lil worried about the new notebook pages bc I just realized thjs week they are thinner than my previous journal#//and if i put a bit too much glue to stick the pages together#//(bc i do stick them together bc the colors bleed through the pages so I leave the back of the pages I've drawn on untouched)#//--- the colors bleed through a lil bit from the glue (I use liquid glue) bc they get a bit wet and again these lages are VERY thin#//so I think instead of using glue I might stick the lages together with tape#//so that the colors don't bleed through the pages and also to avoid the pages getting crinkled#//if ya know what i mean#//and yeah I COULD do my spreads on a separate sheet and then stick it in the journal#//i've seen a lot of artists actually do that on those Create This Book series on YT#//but I don't think I want to make the new journal as CHONKY or even CHONKIER than the last one#//and if I stick a bunch on seperate pages i to it it would surely get very chonky#//(believe me I've seen how these Create This Book challenge books on YT have turned into after rhe artist(s) have done half of the prompts#//also if you're curious most of my spreads from the last two years were recreations and inspired by Amanda Rach Lee's spreads on YT#//I just love her art style it's so cute and how she isn't afraid change things up and also allow mistakes to happen#//if you do bullet journals as well and need inspiration I def recommend her channel
