Did you ever finish that centaur compendium booklet you mentioned a while back?
Not yet unfortunately 😔 it is still technically in progress and it is a life goal at this point to finish it, but i got taken hard by the SAD this year and have been dealing with major work-related burnout so it's been an ongoing negotiation with me @ me wanting to put it together and also life being a knock down drag out recently.
Rest assured as i get back to putting things together it will be my pinned post here!
#asked and answered#centaurs#this place is the best place for centaur news#no shade to your question!#i appreciate your enthusiasm for the booklet!! <3#but between a fixer upper house#that wants to break at every turn#and a passive aggressive employer#doing every shitty thing you hear about online#plus rampant interpersonal drama?#shit is whack yo#im not as the kids say#having a good time#but centaurs and fandom are still my go to seratonin machines#as always#so i perservere

#my art#others ocs#yuusha tala#twst#twisted wonderland#hi ian#if youre reading this#yes my question about flowers was... planned www#though while researching the jasmine i learned it had several different cultivars#i picked the easiest one to draw LOL sorry if it's not the same one you have in mind#a few process notes here for fun#i shaded with as much purple as I could to subtly include her signature colour#though after all the post-editing it isn't very obvious rip#i asked a friend to inspect the lineart and they said she looked kinda evil and i was like 🧍♀️#that's not intentional...#hope the colours fixed that#its likely obvious but i added the sheet music because of her affinity for instruments#it's the first 3 notes of “happy birthday”#based off sheet music i got off google images#first time trying out some charcoal brushes for the bg and theyre pretty nice to use!#hope you can tell i had fun www#finished early so i queued for what i hope is 12 am your time#ill send you the textless version later!

how long does it take you to draw your sketches/doodles? also do you have any tips to draw faster? 🙇♀️
I generally take 30 - 60 minutes a sketch,,,, but honestly really depends on how detailed it is.
Like a Chibi will be done in 20 - 25 minutes (Counting in the extra time I spend on minute details like a perfectionist 😭)
I for some reason really like spending egregious amounts of time on random objects too??? Unless it’s the in the background, I’ll spend 40 minutes refining it.
Random characters that are fully colored and rendered with take like 80 minutes.
The comics take usually take an hour or two per page. (If I decide to cross hatch it, my entire day will be gone with 4 pages… so I’ve been trying to find shortcuts. But not without sacrificing the quality for time lol)
I don’t think there’s any trick or magic to drawing faster. It’s really about weaponizing your artistic knowledge, and finding what’s comfortable or convenient for you!
There was a period of time where I would spend 11 or 12 hours on an illustration, and it wASS UGLYYYYY. (Some of these artworks are still available on my tumblr,,, but it’s SO LONG AGO, AND IT WAS MY 1ST OR 2ND YEAR GETTING INTO DIGITAL ART)
Overtime I learned what worked best for me, and practiced till I felt more comfortable with what I was drawing. Eventually I managed to shorten the time to 4 hours or less! Ambition was my biggest enemy but at the same time my biggest motivator. (And it still is LMFAO) 😭
EDIT (bit more to my way too long tangent): ALSO??? BRO DON’T BE AFRAID TO USE YOUR MESSY SKETCH AS LINEART OR DRAW ON TOP OF IT. I’VE DONE IT FOR YEARS NOW AND IT ADDS SUCH A GOOD EXTRA BIT OF TEXTURE,, AT THIS POINT I DON’T EVEN USE LINE-ART ANY MORE UNLESS IT’S A COMMISSION,, (IT’LL ADD LIKE AN 2-4 HOURS TO MY WORK)
#mushyrt#asks#that word minute bothers me so much#I look at it and want to refer to it as the time minute#this sketch took about 3 minutes when it should’ve been 1 minute#BUT I WAS SO HYPERFIXATED ON THE EYESSS#i say these pretty words#but THE REAL TIP IS HONESTLY THE LASSO TOOL#LASSO TOOL IS THE BEST#IT’S MY FAVORITE TOOL FOR MAKING BACKGROUNDS OR QUICK SHADING OR COLORING#OR ALSO THE MASK TOOL#TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM#THEY’RE SO GOOD#Procreate mask tool kinda sucksss#SO USE ALPHA LOCK IF YOU ARE A CONFIDENT PERSON#OR NOT AFRAID TO F**K UP#Bro I sometimes draw on 1 layer and use alpha lock and my friends look at me like I’m a menace#BUT IT!S USEFULLLL AND SO EASY#This little tangent definitely should’ve been my answer for the ‘how much do you draw’ question#but I’ve been thinking about it for a long time#AND I’M A MANIAC WHEN IT COMES TO DRAWING 😭😭#even if you rob me of a paper or pencil I WILL FIND A WAY TO DRAW#I WILL SCRATCH INTO YOUR SHIRT AND ROCKS AND MAKE AN ARTWORK OUT OF WATER OR CAT FUR#YOU WILL NOT DEPRIVE ME OF MY CREATIVE ENDEAVORS#This didn’t stick out to me until one of my friends said ‘omg ofc she’s drawing’ under her breath#like I spend every second of free time I have drawing unless I find something else interesting#The only time I’m not drawing is when I’m on the toilet or doing random everyday stuff#I forgot to talk about this but greyscale to color is insanely useful too; it teaches you different values while also being super fast#i tend to use greyscale to color when I do a BW sketch I end up liking#TL;DR - Lasso Tool + Layer Mask + Alpha Lock + Sketch as lineart

Another drawing of my SQUIP design (that ive actually ended up really liking. i love this symmetrical idiot)
'You need to trust me if you want me to help you'
'You know how much your trust in me matters'
doodles:
'I BROKE UP WITH HER'
'my Mothers would be proud'
(i realised that i have to make designs for characters that arent just jeremy and squip. oh no)
#be more chill#bmc#be more chill musical#bmc musical#bmc fanart#SQUIP#the squip#jeremy heere#Michael mell#super quantum unit intel processor#why is your squip design so symmetrical you may ask?#why is his left eye like that?#why is he wearing shades but not actually wearing them?#very good questions#not tagging boyf riends cause its not prominent enough in the post but i guess its there#InTheCrowdDoodling

*person projecting their own pre-existing beliefs and desires on the narrative so hard they can barely distinguish what's actually happening in canon voice* this fandom needs more nuance
#someone very smart once made the observation that most people calling for more nuance#actually either themselves need or need others to have more context#which makes sense! like nuance is: this moral question in the abstract really has more shades of gray than you give it credit for#context is: guy espousing a specific shade of gray currently has a knife to your throat#queue

back to my apparently not so bi-annual danny phantom posting
#'wow gloomy your phantom design changes a lot' that's because I don't have one. next question#this was an excuse to test. a lieu of things; actually#holographic texturing. backgrounds. full body poses. eyes + expression. shading and highlights#like wow. a lot of stuff#art stuffs#danny phantom#danny phantom fanart#danny fenton#danny fenton fanart#dp#dp fanart#I still of am the opinion phantoms hair should float I just do not have the ability to do that and make it look good right now.#++before anyone bothers me about the background I had to do an absurd amount of patchwork to it since#I decided this piece should be a different angle. only after I was finished. so I had to link the blank background & finished bg

You! Are! History!
I drew some of Pit's fabulous adorable poses from his battle cry in Chapter 5. I love him so much.
There were more, by the way, but I got tired after inking and coloring two. Have all five sketches under the cut:
#Kid Icarus#Uprising#Kid Icarus Uprising#Pit KIU#my art#Drawing Pit and exploring his swishy swishy princess clothes was such a blast#I think as a fandom we need to talk more about how attractive he is. Like. Guys.#Can you please tell me I'm not the only one attracted to Pit#Like look at him in that sketch on the bottom left? Yes I'm simping over my own drawing don't look at me like that it's normal#Also guys line weight??? Why did nobody tell me making a heavier outline of your character makes the drawing look 10x more professional???#I feel like I've unlocked a cheat code to life. Now I can feel like my art is ready to post even if it's not fully shaded#Which is great 'cause we all know I take an eternity to post any art ever#Anyway don't click on this. Don't zoom in. Don't question why the quality changes halfway across the piece#Just admire the bird wings or something like I actually pulled up a reference for those you should be proud

Something the hermits wonder alot is, what is etho? The closest thing they've found is elves but those aren't right either as they don't have some of the traits etho does, as he as these puffs of fur like hair at the tips of his ears and the fact he has a tail although the fact that the scar on his face glows and that you can see it no matter the angle or how dark it is
(also is it ok if Im the Robin or fox anon 👉👈)
Little do they know, Etho is actually old enough to be his own species. The "Etho" mob was created as one of a range of creatures the Minecraft devs were debating adding into the game, and they decided to populate the End with Endermen instead of Ethos. They let the original test subject run free, though, and he went on to create wonderful things. I wonder how much more dangerous the End would have been, if the primary mob was a redstone-building ninja...
~ Mod Shade
#ethoslab#hermitcraft#mod shade#to answer your question: we already have a fox anon,but robin works fine!

how it feels like looking through the lalo/reader tag as a gn / transmasc:
#💬 i speak#the food in question are the non-gn/trans masc fics but you know that it's not your thing ... it's still food though.#no shade btw y'all do you . everyone wants a piece of lalo so i understand#if im desperate enough my mind automatically filters out the wrong pronouns used .#it's a starving economy out here#will reiterate again that this isnt targeted towards anyone okay... peace and love on planet earth <3#we r sillyposting today

Ok so I absolutely love your Hera art.
But
Have you considered
Pink/orange/multicolored Hera
Honestly I feel like warm colors in general just suit her so well.
oh, i don't know! when i ask people to draw hera blue, the reasons for that are: 1) it makes her more immediately recognizable, and 2) i like what it represents! it draws on existing sci-fi imagery of holograms. a projected image of someone who is physically elsewhere. it's associated with water and sky, distance and longing.
physically, i think there are two heras: there's the way people literally perceive her from an outside perspective - formless, or associating her with the hephaestus itself, which is misidentification. i love when people draw eiffel interacting with hera's cameras + monitors very much, but i also think it's clear she feels she's seeing through them, not that she is them. and there's hera as she sees herself in her own mind (and in eiffel's mind, in the finale), where... i really think she just perceives herself as an average, tangible person.
so i don't think she's literally blue, i just think it's a good way to give her a visual presence in art that's closer to her self-perception, while still communicating some sense of distance / disconnect, if that makes sense? if hera had a body and could wear clothes, i think she'd love to try on all sorts of colors!!
#hi i'm so sorry about the delay! you caught me in the middle of eiffel questions#(just moving this part to the tags for clarity but i said before like. i know you mean 'your' as in art done for me of my design#for hera. but i feel like i should still acknowledge all of the wonderful people who have drawn her for me.)#anyway. blue is the hera color to me for all of the above reasons but also that shade of blue looks great with eiffel's bright orange.#i think it can be neat if people give her an orange visor or floating screens etc. to mirror hephaestus uniforms as like. work equipment#and i would love if someone made blue + pink art of hera in like. a trans way. but as a base color to represent her... i don't know#nothing except that shade of blue feels right to me.#i think warm colors would be lovely on her! but i think even that is more effective as like. if she has a body#then it communicates connection and presence and self expression and all of that in contrast. you know.#(though i think she would like blues as well anyway because of that association with the ocean. blue + yellow's a really sunshine-y look.)#thank you for asking!!#and your icon is so cute btw. is that your dog#asks
