"Two deaths, utterly inevitable, yet completely inconsequential."

"If goodness were to stay in that world, he had to die. He tried to live peacefully with evil, and it only resulted in the winter he tried to avoid. His death was inevitable."

"If one were to win in that world, he had to die. There could only be one, and there was no way for him to win. His death was inevitable."

"Exor will find another champion, and so will Aeor. The games beg for death, his being just one in the carnage. Their deaths meant nothing, inconsequential."

Finished Art Academy (Nintendo 3DS) Introductory Course Lessons

In between projects, I've been doing some research for a video I want to produce on my YouTube Channel. Recently I have rediscovered my New Nintendo 3DS (yes, "New" was actually part of the name in the last line of 3DSes), fell in love with it, and wanted to experiment with Art Academy: Lessons for Everyone.

The thing that attracted me to Art Academy was that it was a game that promised to teach real world art techniques for beginners and experts to enjoy. Though my video idea is still in a valuable state, I want to see how well they translate over but, rather than jump in blind, I needed to do basic research and experience some of the lessons myself to help guide how I would do this. I'll probably speak more on this when production actually starts but for now, this is where I am at.

I wanted to share some of the pieces I created within the Art Academy game, following along with the lessons, and what I have found. The most difficult part for me was not so much the rather small screen size but how the screen is NOT pressure sensitive and I would have to stop myself from literally stabbing the stylus into the screen to make the brush stroked bigger/bolder.

That said, I am actually impressed with not only the lessons but how well the game performs as a digital art software. It is no Photoshop or Procreate but, in many ways, I almost prefer it over those programs. Rebelle 7 is probably the closest app to how Art Academy's drawing program functions. While in both Rebelle 7 and Art Academy you paint in a very real world way to get the color you want, Art academy allows you to add water directly to the paint where Rebelle 7 only allows you to increase or decrease the amount of water if using the watercolor brush tool. If there is a way to add water to paint using the Acrylic / Oil brushes, I haven't found how to yet.

The duality of man (of me drawing watcher!scar)

Hi yes I don’t believe I’ve talked about this au before! This is Watcher!Scar aka main character of the River Rushing au, which will have a handful of fics attached to it at some point. (technically already has one but it only has vague ties without the rest of em-) Hes my baby and he has existed for about as long as Wild Life has been over

He’s got griffon vulture wings and has a handful of abilities that mostly pertain to color and flowers (such as turning purple amethyst crystals green; growing flowers wherever he walks)

I will be drawing more of him :D

sometimes I really do think we hit peak technology like twenty years ago and we're just doing stupid shit now. Like bro, we fit entire movies and albums onto a plastic disc that our tv or music player just like eats and then we can listen or watch at home as many times as we want? Awesome. That's lit. Literally perfect. But now shit is just like being beamed to us through the air but we still have to pay for it for some reason? and then sometimes even when we do pay for it we don't get to even keep it? and the quality sometimes sucks ass? and also like ai and the internet are lowkey evil? yeah no thanks. I'll take the plastic discs. Those were pretty awesome.
