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

Ui idea tests, thrown together bc im eepy. Was planning on doing more but I spent all my days energy on the second one oops

#Danny phantom #I need to draw more or I’ll die <- guy who’s meds exhaust them #writing is so hard how do u not make everyone sound like you through a bad filter #Ik that’s unavoidable in some ways (like how art style will always look like u did it+not someone else)#but ugh. I’ll figure it out eventually takes practice+learning+all that #was planning on writing today but then I though ‘huh it might b fun to make some fake ‘’screenshot’’ concepts #also the portal basement has a more complex design but again #eepy #I think the gimmicky MySpace-inspired boxes r fun but idk how well I could keep that theme going w/ some characters #I also never used MySpace so that’s maybe just a kill issue #*skill lol #the command prompt one would basically just be for the portal #I keep saying that this project isn’t feasible buy my hyperfixated ass keeps trying anyways

STITCH EVENT ART!!! AS I PROMISED!!!

chat. chat. if i ever say i want to draw muscles again. just take me in the back and shoot me (show me this drawing. all the pain will come flowing back). could NOT get the anatomy right but it’s first try so fuck it we ball⁉️‼️

Jack had so many lines about surfing that i just. decided on this. yeah. also self-indulgent JacKiyuu for funsies <3 she wants to learn how too surf well but keeps getting distracted by how cool Jack looks. perchance.

And!! Another self-indulgent JackRyoKiyuu now that @kathxrat-01 FINALLY dropped Ryoko beach ref (/j she drew allat in one sitting)

Overheater and Miss Ghost tm goes straight to Ryoko (when available) if they don’t feel up to par. THE qpr ever in fact.

Stitch Event Doodles: Part 1 | Part 2 | Outfit Ref

#vancouver canucks #conor garland #nikita zadorov #hockey art #niksartstuffs #sorry for drawing real life nhl players as furries. it might happen again (depends on how embarrassed by this i am in the morning.)#i'd love to say its just cos i wanna practice w/ reference for my hockey furries but thats not the truth...#the truth is that conor garland is like some sort of terrier to me. what a special little guy. they may have lost yesterday but!#the garly girlies got a goal. that. matters. 💥💥💥#anyway im like. actually feverish rn lol 🤒 i need to take some meds and lie down haha myb that has smth to do with. this lapse of judgement #furry art #hockeyposting

How draw like you T^T

Do you have any advice for learning to draw better? Like, resources or practices or anything?

Time. and referencing. No way around it but to put in the hours.

#ask #some variation of this question has been asked and answered millions of times #I’ve asked it myself to artists I like #but honestly you just gotta put in the hours #it sucks because I hate patience and practice LOL I wanna be good instantly #tho I will say #unless you’re trying to be come a career artist dont push yourself to draw anything u don’t want to #for years I just drew cute girls and gay people and then eventually I had to learn bgs in order to make my cute girls and gay ppl more cool #and same w props etc etc etc #I tried to learn rendering for a while but is just not fun to me #and then I was like wait why am I pushing myself to unfun art? I don’t need to be career skilled #it’s just a hobby #so yeah like there is ofc worth in studies and pushing urself a bit #but for my fellow hobbyists: it’ll come naturally eventually as u want to make ur pieces shine. dont torture urself #and for u anon. just put in the years #some stuff like iterative drawing and again references can speed it up a bit #draw daily if u want to shorten the years to improve #but overall the hours to learn will be mostly the same.#I myself have many years to go still and many hours before I’m at where I want to be haha

My toxic trait is that I like how my incomplete drawings look better than the finished things

#im sorry i cant be her (my searching lines)#i cant stop thinking about this drawing i have a sinking feeling that im gonna be very unhappy when its done #or. not unhappy. but not as excited as i feel about it now!#i only worked in two short chunks on it but both were pretty productive #i have a feeling that when i take the time to really dedicate myself to it im gonna fuck something up #like i can see areas i need to/can improve already but the glaring flaws are ok! bc it's not finished!#it OVERALL looks cool and LOOKS like it has the potential to turn out well #but will it... WILL IT??? WILL IT EVER?#i have never been so totally completely satisfied w any finished drawing ive dedicated myself to fully.#tales from diana #this is also only the second time ive done a really deliberate self-portrait that wasnt in some for or another. practice #like of course ive drawn my face before. not that often actually. but since yes i do draw. i have drawn myself #i probably should've drawn myself more times for how often i think id like a nice picture of myself #but then again its not gonna be so 'nice' if i make it and am not totally happy w it?#see one of the ppl who inspired me to learn to draw is ned @sneez my dearest. he's spoiled me before #and drawn me very beautifully on several occasions and it's very much a thing to move one's heart #to see someone dedicate their talent to depicting YOU.#and i might say HE has made me look more beautiful in art than i think i'll ever look in the flesh #which is not to say he drew me inaccurately. but he's so talented that his art is more beautiful than life.#and i dont compare myself in skill to him bc he's been doing it for YEARS and way more trained than me in the visual arts.#like it simply wouldn't be fair so i only compare myself to myself. naturally #but i used to think. very VAINLY i might say. that if i could draw like him id draw beautiful pictures of myself all the time #well ce n'est pas ca mon ami. since learning to draw i've found im much more interested in drawing ppl i find beautiful #rather than myself. im not art. not through my own eyes at least.#i should really draw ned sometime. i really should.#actually somewhat embarrasingly i tried to draw him like 5 or 6 years ago. and i NEVER tried to draw then #i did show him tho and he thought it was very impressive but that's probably just bc he loves me. xoxox #maybe ill post that someday as a throwback just for the hell of it. lol. thatd be cute

if you draw enough monster ocs, when you go back to drawing a human character, it feels like "sameface syndrome" everytime, by virtue of their face being. human.

#toy txt post #or maybe i am just sameface syndrome #but also different face syndrome #two characters will have the same face but then the next time i draw those characters its a different face than they had last time!#i know part of it is being out of practice but also there is definitely an element of feeling constrained by human facial structure lmao #the monsters have Their Own Problems but like. no one has a face like bokrae no matter how inconsistent i am about drawing her #her features are iconic enough to her that you can tell everytime #birdie???? i faceclaimed eartha kitt for her and im still struggling cos i feel weird about faceclaiming as a concept #but even then 😭 one time i was trying to give headloose a face and someone was like wow he looks like birdie!#me 😭😭😭😭😭 what!!!!!! hes not supposed to!!!!!!!!!!!!!#i need to practice. features #you know the worst part about coming up w a bunch of fuckin Scenarios in my brain for ocs is that i have even fucking Drawn them yet #to give them like. iconic staple features and figure out what their faces look like. which feels like it would really help to have that #knowledge and muscle memory before i jump into trying to draw intense scenes with difficult poses!!#not to mention. listen. i can do the monster faces. somewhat. the bodies??????????? well for one. theyre too big everytime #im convinced i could be trying to draw bokrae on like a full ass wall size paper like a mural thing and run out of room. it just keeps #happening. i have no sense of scale for them either. by which i mean i struggle w scale already and also cant decide what i want it to be #and ive tried to handwave it away by being like ohhh uh. birdie casts spells on them to change their sizes for convenience but also #no. perhaps that explanation works for other ppl. @ myself tho its not good enough i Know Better!!!!!!#agh!!!!!!! i really need to figure out bokrae's Teeth also. like i dont. i coukd get away with it. but i should. and i want to.#anyway all this to say that i need to give these characters faces and body designs (actually the body designs for humanoid ocs is the easy #part. the faces are whats stumping me? well. i need more practice w all the body types again but like i Know what im Going For at least.#for the most part anyway. havent fully figured out heights. struggling w characters that i want to make short but give imposing tall energy #on occasion? birdie can be short all day long no problem. I want Alasdair to be short enough that he has a bunch of short boyfriends that #feel tall around him? bytte was going to be like 6ft max but then i thought about making her taller and like. what if i made her taller #headloose is not that /short/ but he is Not Tall and prolly pretty lean? twink build for sure #and of course all these short /tall distinctions come with a bias of relativity to my own height which i categorize as medium height #but short ppl call me tall and insist its not average and tall ppl call me short. (5'6) and then i have to factor in how the gender changes #the dynamic of a height like my height is Short For A Man but medium to tall for a Woman. which id argue is medium height bc mens heights #are socially held to high standards (hehe) and also i know ethnicity/race is also a factor? but im out of tags. rip. bye

one of the perspective practices or whatever

#doodle #thanks i hate it or w/e #you think you know what a room would look like & then you draw it and are like. fuck. what the hell. how does interior design work again #and then youre like. i have to google so many types of furniture goddamn it all #i should just learn blender #i did originally draw all this with a grid and all the lines were perfect and heterosexual #but then i traced over it w/o a ruler because the perfect lines make it look off.#i also dont have any energy. i'm tired.#i need to improve drawing scenery and backgrounds or w/e so i can stop filling my blog w nothing but bland portraits #i also have to draw backgrounds for my game lol i thought let's make vestnai's lab/workspace! this did not turn out how i wanted it.#didnt do enough planning really. common mistake i make #i also did 3 point perspective practice and lemme tell u. clip studio's rulers just do what they feel like. they dont care about ur feeling #so many tags. i'm chatty. and tired.

cuz i Don't need it to be detailed or very realistic with my worldbuilding! because L. ron hubbard existed at some point and

#just me hi #a post that does actually have a slight chance of putting me in some small danger Lmfshvhjgh #i have a minor interest in. the ology of science (m not gonna tag it Lmao) and i like to rotate my smaller interests almost on a #monthly schedule so hfbsh #/anyway reeeeed n i get into some debates about what makes 'sense' in my worldbuilding and what doesn't #which is mostly very helpful and making the stuff up in the moment is a greater part of how i function hfbshv #but it Does also put my brain onto overthinking the whole thing like. what specific type of element do generators run off of i NEED to #know [<- this is simply not true]#and like i Could sink a lot of time into figuring out how exactly different towns + cities economies function but am i the one to do all #that? i should hope not!! i'm just the 'has too many thoughts' guy. we need a different guy for the money stuff pfshvh #and it doesn't reaaaaaaaaally matter. in my heart anyway #//anywhoodle doo it's gonna be 1 soon and i am still working on a background to this piece #i have/had a vague idea of a city but i could not figure out how to translate it into an actual static image so i'm substituting. and i am #Displeased about it !! it is not turning out very well bfhsv :'3 #i Really Really wanna learn to do backgrounds well. sighs wistfully #somewhere.. beyond the sea... she's (well-made backgrounds) there waitin for me (to practice)..... my lover stands on gol-#Oh bedtime alarm number 3 just went off khfsvjfsd #iiii should.. uumm...#OH wait wait wait we can pause on the drawing for a second i think i'm chilled out enough to start writing again Loll :D #yippee!! woohoo!!!#rule though. bedtime at 2. i can Not stay up til 3 writing like i usually do that's just ridiculous #//anyway yea goodnight happy halloween y feliz dia de los muertos n toodles ^w^

"John Donne" - a charcoal imitation of the 1622 Portrait of John Donne at the age of 49 by an unknown artist, drawn 2/26/2024

This is a purposefully rough work; I hadn't drawn a single thing in two weeks since giving up on a personal and difficult drawing I had worked on during January-February. This was done in about 30-to-40 minutes with just willow charcoal; no pencils and very minimal erasing, so somebody doesn't get the privilege of defined eyelids.

#im happy w it for the amount of effort i put in #that last thing i was drawing... oh im mad and upset like crazy again even thinking about it!!! so im not gonna talk abt!!!#im just gonna shut up about it and you should too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#2024 #my drawing #visual art #john donne #charcoal #charcoal drawing #i was just gonna say the last thing was too much effort for how upset i was with it >:( but SHUT UP!!!!!!!#im so unhappy. my dad reminded me of it bc i guess he forgot i told him i quit it two weeks ago #i got super snappy w him but even thinking about it now makes me wanna cry. i've purposefully put it out of my mind #and now thinking about it again has put me in a bad mood when i wasn't before #i need to do more quick practice drawings as opposed high-effort concentrated works #cuz i gotta face it :) im just not that good at drawing :)#what a more skilled artist could do in a few hours takes me days or weeks #im more satisfied too usually w the low-effort works. i guess bc they aren't crushed under the weight of expectation #man FUCK expectations!!!!!!!!!!!#alright i gotta go im in a bad mood goodnight #bitches >:(
