"#you don’t buy a sketchbook every time for one sketch"
UGH yes thank you lmao like, yall really keep one million separate tiny files for individual sketches???? I generally keep all of my related sketches in one file, separated by fandom, and only move something out of that file if I plan to polish it up into something more finished. I make a new sketch file probably every six months or so, sometimes sooner or later depending on how full the file gets (I do not, for example, let it get to the point where the program lags).
The thought of having a shit-ton of tiny little individual files for every sketch gives me anxiety
I think it's much more common than the people who are reacting hyperbolically think it is lol
This was the file for all my Potion Permit sketching (minus the 'shh' folder which is nsft so not shown here, but includes like half a dozen more sketches)
WAIT GENUINE QUESTION FOR ARTISTS, DO YOU GUYS NOT USE THE SAME CANVAS FOR MULTIPLE DRAWINGS???? YOU JUST MAKE A NEW ONE EVERYTIME??
#'i wanna study u under a microscope' why lol just because they do something different than u do.............#like yeah letting it get to the point where the program becomes nigh unusable is maybe a little much but like...#idek why ppl overreacting to this is so annoying to me either lol it just is#it's not like we're talking something REALLY bonkers and out there#tbh the thought of making a separate file for every sketch seems MUCH weirder to me than having them all in the same file#it almost feels wasteful somehow#or maybe unorganized? or badly optimized??? idk if just feels Weird#TO ME#my art#I keep all my fandom-related oneshots in the same document too!!!! absolutely the fuck not am I gonna have two dozen 1-3 page documents#when they can all go in the same document and I can just use gdoc's table of contents/outline tools to navigate super quickly between them
