Doing master studies the only way I know how: Stealing them and making them my guys.

(Barberini Faun)

(The Fallen Angel - Alexandre Cabanel)

(Covent Garden - William Bruce Ellis Rankin)

#obviously. not actually theft...#i was gonna say these are public domain but covent garden actually isnt yet #it will be. in two years.#thats the most different one though like i added a whole new guy..#maybe not the most different. barberini faun is pretty different i just took the post #pose #its barely even a study. thats not true #but. what was i saying.#oh its not theft it's study... the purpose is to learn!!! but also. if im gonna spend like 2 days on something...#its GONNA be my guys #otherwise. idk. i only want to spend 30 or so minutes per study #just to get the notes down and the practice for the skill im working on #i dont get all that much more out of completely rendering a master study. PERSONALLY.#at least definitely not enough to be worth taking 100x longer #but making them my characters makes it worth going all the way!!!#plus it's good practice w like. not just going 1:1 but actually genuinely interpreting whats there so i can manipulate it...#again. personally. this is just how i worm #WORK #youd better worm bitch #uhm... anyways yeah. ive done lots of study but why TF share it LMAO i dont even save it #its just to learn. ive got 1 million other drawings to save and look at later.#once the learning is done it's done its job and i have no need anymore #this is why the only studies i have are from school. i had to save and upload them #well. ok also i dont study as much now BUT in my defense im a full time artist #an hour or so a week is different ok im learning while working too.. i learned how to learn and i do it all the time now #master studies #digital art #my art #illustration #my ocs

more clone^2 memes because i think they're funny

#dpxdc #dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dpxdc crossover #dpdc #clone^2 #danny fenton is not the ghost king #so canon to clone^2 and clone damian the portal that ends up transporting damian to amity park is left pr ambiguous #so really how he got there could be one of many things whether it be through divine intervention or clockwork's doing or hell #it could've also been quite literally the 1 in 1 millionth chance that a natural portal opened up beneath him and sent him to amity #and was a happy accident #but the idea that the laz pits or another adjacent such entity heard damian wanting an older brother (he meant og damian but oops never-#specified) and then sends him to the one person who could fulfill that wish and make him happy at the same time.#was really funny to me within the context of the lilo and stitch meme. the meme can also be seen the other way around with danny as lilo #and damian as stitch. but danny being stitch was infinitely funnier and ~technically~ more accurate imo #danny technically IS a nice angel but also. he's a developing menace to society (just ask wes) and he's going to make damian one too #danny being from the midwest means he has a midwestern accent and thats not something the bats know how to handle when they finally meet hi #hey look at that! my meme making skills are steadily improving. im no longer making the same joke six different times in different formats #those first two images i made a few days ago the rest i made in the last thirty minutes in a spur of clone^2 induced inspiration #and procrastination of writing the cfau rewrite of the first post. we are 10k words deep folks and just barely got past the 1st gala reunio #dunking on the giw is a god-given right and danny WILL pass it down to damian

so help me god if I tanked the chance for a well-paid job with full medical benefits, sick leave, paid vacation time, etc. because I hardly ever do machine seam-finishing

I'm going to be. really really really upset

#personal #did a sewing test for a theatrical costuming job at a big local theatre the other day #did my best but I know some of my samples were probably quite wonky because I'm used to finishing seams by hand #and thus having more control to make adjustments as I go #a few I had to look up how to do on my phone- but then the proctor told me I could do that and they do it frequently in the shop #I go back and forth between 'it'll be fine; I probably did fine; they SAID they take all skill levels and that they google how to do things #and 'oh there's no WAY I'm getting this gig'#it was an interesting experience because the shop manager like. stopped me on the street to ask if I made my dress #and then if I would be interested in maybe joining her team #but now I'm like 'are they even going to believe I made the things I sent them pics of'#'or that they saw me wearing [I wore my winter coat to the test because it was V. Cold]'#'after my machine-felling on organza was an uneven disgrace'#I can fit and copy patterns from books and even do a bit of draping #I can do a lot of hand-stitching finishes pretty quickly and evenly #I can do insertion lace and soutache #I've made hats before #but I just. haven't done a lot of machine-finishing #and that's all they tested me on really #also sewing on snaps and one (1) hand-finishing stitch #(one I hardly ever use anyway- catch-stitch/zigzag stitch)#(I fell my hems generally speaking)

She can't keep getting away with this!

[First] Prev <--> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #MDZS #season 1 #wei wuxian #lan jingyi #lan sizhui #little apple #I think little apple deserves to cause more mayhem. As a treat #I love how despite her hating wwx they both have the same 'burn all bridges' mentality in gusu lan #little apple would have been able to escape gusu lan if she had thumbs. What the hell is *your* excuse wwx? Huh?#MXY's asscheeks too dummy thick and it keeps alerting hanguan-jun? Sounds like a skill issue #I was too ambitious with wanting to have this scene be on fire. Its a better version of #the fourth comic but still...i have much to learn about the ways of drawing fire #much to learn about drawing in general actually B*( but I'm getting there!#i hope you guys enjoy the preview of wwx showing a little more skin. We still have eons to go until we’re at the dilf era outfit #but its on the roadmap #EDIT: HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY!!!

though it'll be a bit lucrative later, a lot of zara's mornings are spent tending her garden to get everything to grow and sell -- its the longest part of her day

More crossover stuff 💥💥💥 + that one "piss off bitch boy" joke is so funny to me (Elias tries to look into Gertrude's mind and receives said response) and I feel like Collin would do it to him too

#tropical's art #digital art #art #collinlock16 #minecraft arg but the protagonist is tired #I also feel like with his prick nature Collin would have a field day messing with Jon #On the basis that Jon is also a prick and falls squarely into “an annoying entity” in Collin's mind #Same with Elias #I feel like Collin needs a reason to be rude to someone and those two give him a reason to (but maybe it becomes a bit to Collin and Jon)#Prick to prick communication #Prick to prick conversation #Still have no idea how Collin would even effect the story in TMA other than bringing it more comedy #Oh yeah and Kevin is there! He's just curious as an Eye Avatar would be #But I feel like he would want understanding and not just plain seeing #What's the point of his ability if it's just at face value and weakens his own research skills?#Then he dips after visiting the Institute and checking it out #But yeah not sure what Collin's dynamic would be within the whole season 1-2 group #Considering he (probably) has no qualifications for working at an archive and yet was still hired as an intern #World's most self-indulgent crossover for me to share out on occasion 💥

Hi! *Drops this and runs into the woods*

STAIN DOODLES YAY!!! As you know I have lots of stainmight ideas BUT I need to know how to draw the characters to actually draw the said characters lol so I started with Stain. I really love his design but I needed to understand how the hell should I draw him in my style. I still have some work to do but I'm pretty happy with the way I draw him now :))

Also have some bonus stuff:

You don't understand how much I laughed while trying different shapes for Stain's main body- Bro always had big shoulders and tiny legs xD

#cj 24 #art #art practice #doodles #bnha #school doodles #boku no hero academia #mha #my hero academia #akaguro chizome #hero killer stain #stain mha #stainmight #(mentioned)#I WANT TO DRAW SO MUCH BUT I DON'T HAVE FREE TIME AND SKILLS RAAAHHHHHH #I only have like 2 or 3 hours to use pc and I'm dying I NEED MORE TIME #I hate school so I draw right in my notebooks while the teacher yaps about the lesson #I actually need to do my homework rn but who careeesssss #STAINMIGHT CANON!!!#also I forgot to say #I struggled with his eyes before but then I got inspired with ROTTMNT style and now I draw them very sharp (if that makes sense)#I chose ROTTMNT because 1. I love the style and sharp angles fit stain's personality and just overall look good #2. haha stain is a ninja turtle #and fun fact I had pizza for dinner that day- it was pure coincidence lmao #ok enough yapping gotta go work on more stuff ty for listening

wiggles my fingers at you ouuuu… you want to tell me about solace so bad…

HKJGG wiggles my fingers back lovingly!!! i really do, i fuckin LOVE solace :3 hey did you know i really like making fake skill descriptions?

SOLACE

Follow the north star. Find light in even the darkest places. Cool for: Optimists, Recovering lost souls, Sweet summer children

Solace is the skill you tucked away long ago, at the bottom of Pandora's box. The little one that tells you: despite it all, there is still hope. It needs a lot of nurturing -- and it's far from being the most helpful for police work -- but taking care of it is basically self-care. It enables you to find the glow in yourself that you often ascribe to gold lungs or brilliant halos in others. It encourages you to wake up and watch the sunrise, to play board games with someone you love, to forgive yourself and let yourself be a gentler kind of animal. Constantly looking forward to a brighter future, it also helps shield your morale from damage.

At high levels, Solace gives you a heightened sense of childlike optimism - which isn't always the sense to lead with in this precariously harsh world. Always looking for the bright side will blindside you with naivety. At low levels, however, you may just extinguish whatever keeps your soul alight. You've already lost her once. You may not survive the desolation if you let her disappear again.

#i wanted to draw a skill portrait for her for this but [gestures vaguely at life] i hope this is cool enough hkjgkj <33 #solace is truly voli's ''keep going. there's still hope for us'' and echem's ''we can be happy again! let's go find joy wherever we can''#this is why i keep saying she's their kid hkjgh she covers the happy medium of both of their ideologies. hope for a happier future.#harry goes to the store and finds a pair of pink heart shades that gives her ''+1 Rose Colored Glasses'' :3 #i feel like theres some mechanic that keeps her from gaining too many points. a locked skill cap or maybe she can lose skill points??#hm. considers this.#echem voice ''i can't believe i'm saying this but we really can't drink alcohol anymore. it's bad for the baby :(''#ALSO. THIS IS ONE OF MY MORE SELF INDULGENT WORKS SO IF IT SEEMS OOC IN ANY WAY THAT'S BC THIS IS MY COMFORT FIC HGKJKJ #i know sometimes i write skill relationships too sweet and the world too kind and the game too unrealistically...#i know shivers said the end of the world is in 22 years. i know being a revachol cop would kill solace. i know alcoholism is hard to kick #and dora still haunts us. i know life is so hard and there is so much that kills hope and that the pale is going to swallow elysium. i know #but isn't disco elysium about how the world is awful and corrupt and futile but there is still beauty and worth to living in it?#the sky. the world. you're still alive. after death; life again. one day i will return to your side. sunrise parabellum.#the phasmid exists. the pale can be fought back with art. the city's alive and she told us she loves us. and solace believes there is hope.#augh idk man hjlkjg just don't want to lean into the ''young witch trying to find a cat in the alps'' bullshit lmao FUCK that </3 #i just think harry deserves a hope skill.#volta transmissions #inland drabbles #task: when two skills love each other very much

the alters' control room skills are so funny to me because like

you have the most vital part of the landship, where every other operation is supervised constantly to ensure the whole of RI can keep functioning, where you need to have five whole operators to make sure it all works out

and four of them are goofing off so hard that they're not even getting tired

all the while Yato is forced to be the only one doing actual work, slowly but inevitably losing her morale while the others get some snacks and watch a movie on the main control screen or something

#dream job tbh #technically noir corne COULD be doing actual work but id have to raise him for that #and maybe one day ill do it but who knows #the morale they lost is because i was testing to see how to make degenbrecher's base skills work #dont mind ho'olheyak in the room below she was sentenced to clue 1 gathering for her crimes #Arknights

a horrible monster: RRRAAAAUUUURRRGGGHHH!!!!!!

lief, winding up with the first throwable object he has to hand: eat THIS!!!!

#swords level 1 improvised thrown weapons level 99 #honestly such an underrated thing that he tries this exact move <i>several</i> times and doesn't give up until it finally works five gems i #probably for the best that he doesn't rely on this skill he'd probably start chucking gems tbh #get this boy a sling and some non-crucially-magical rocks #deltora quest #roddacember 2023 #roddacember day 17

Other driver gets angry: Yes! The team only sabotages you! This is a real driver! One that is not scared to say the truth, who complains about injustices, one that says exactly what he is thinking! You deserve a better car they’re doing your talent so wrong! And that mistake? Oh no, it can happen, don’t worry baby, even the biggest champions have made mistakes in the past. 💕🥹💕❤️

Lando dares to breathe: See?!?!??? He’s such a disrespectful brat! He should be thankful he has that car and that seat, he only knows how to complain. And how dare he say what he thinks should be done? He does not have the mentality of a champion, someone like him who does those mistakes! He makes it harder and harder to like him. 🤢🤢😖

You see the difference here?

#lando norris #pro lando norris #since people creat an anti tag then I might as well create a pro tag cause he sure as hell deserves one #f1 #formula 1 #if you can’t handle the basic notion that human beings can be different #and that perhaps being a champion does not only mean mentality but also SKILLS #then you should probably spend a day or two thinking about what person do you want to be for yourself #cause sure as hell hating on someone you don’t know as if he personally offended you #is not the righ road
