how do you make progress in art? I know I need to practice, but I don't know what is effective.

this is going to sound unhelpful but honestly you just have to keep trying things that are hard and don't turn out the way you like them straight away. you have to draw hands even though they're difficult and look weird, you have to try different poses and angles even though you don't think you can pull them off, and when you draw something and it doesn't look good right away the first time you have to ask yourself "am i willing to put in a little more effort to improve this, even if it still doesn't turn out the way i want it to" before moving on to something else or retreating into your comfort zone. it's hard because instant gratification always feels more rewarding in the short-term, but that quickly fades, while long-term satisfaction (and the skills you gained in the process) endures.

also study other people whose work you admire, check if they have tutorials, tips, etc. and adapt them to your own process

#ive drawn soooo many things that when i started sketching them looked like straight up ass #and made me want to never draw again. but i never let myself close my art program without at least trying #to improve it enough to tell myself that i made the effort #sometimes i still scrap it in the end! but at least i know i tried #and i almost always save my 'shitty' art in case i just need fresh eyes to figure out why its not working

experimentation is forever and ever and emmet is guinea pig

#still working with colors. I need to eat a ball of light #MAGMA SAVE ME. SAVE ME PERSONAL MAGMA CANVAS #I find magma a lot less stressful to try stuff on tbh. it's probbaly because of how their brushes feel #I TECHNICALLY can somewhat emulate it in my main drawing program. but magma just has such a nice feel #anyways. shrug. I like emmet a loADUGHSADO TAGS CANCELLED I HGAVE THE HICCUPS. GOD HATES ME #GOD WANTS ME DEAD. THIS IS TRHE WORST. WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT HTE FUCK MAN. STOP HICCUPING. STOPPPP #AOOAUAUUUAGUUAUHHUHUHAUUGUAHHUAUHHHGHHUHUGUUHAG #glances around. are you okay now. did you stop hiccuping.#OKAY I THINK WE"RE GOOD. thank god #spenxer lou art #submas #pokemon submas #submas emmet #subway boss emmet #subway master emmet #subway bosses #btw the main stuff I've been working now is color gradients and saturation in shading / the affect colored outlines have. shrug #basically I stared at bluebellowls art too long and got mad enough to give myself a stomach ache <- can't make this shit up #uhmm. rubs brain. ???? I don't know what else to say. I've been improving sooooooo much but my hunger is insatiable. me want more

Getting old is interesting. I've always been a middle ground between sports (skateboarding, surfing, jiu-jitsu) and an avid student. Over time, it's clear that you can't keep trying the same tricks, just as you can't study the same way.

Today, as I'm writing an article about event-driven architectures, I realize that final exams in college were much easier, just like it's not as easy to jump the same stairs on a skateboard as I did when I was 18. In the image, you can see my favorite note-taking app, Obsidian, and my Neovim terminal. I'm diving deep into Java, and for that, I'm taking a Spring Boot bootcamp offered by Claro through the DIO Innovation One platform.

taking your gf to the doctor in a heavily reinforced swaddle because she has talons and the temperament of a horse

sequel to this and what i said in the tags

#splatoon #my art #marina ida #pearl houzuki #its a giant production any time marina has a doctors appointment. eight has to come over to help #shes improved she used to bite :)#could be worse. she couldve been a blue ringed octo #the cat/animal mannerisms are significantly more pronounced in soldiers bc their training magnifies their fight flight responses tenfold #and well. you cant just turn the programming off once theyre a regular civilian

I am staying home today... I have to find a good momentum soon

Log: 17th Dec 24

#read_30 _politics on edge #Draft _PL #LCA_lit_review #go on a long Walk #call home #digital Declutter

It’s been raining all day so couldn’t go on that walk… also suddenly I miss my dad so much… I literally have no one else who loves me unconditionally…🤧

I’m so grateful for my family and my dad 🤧🤧

pretty & cute witch men

#witch hat tag #orufrey #i'm not drawing as much or as well as i'd like to be doing. i'm trying to get through a comic i've been really wanting to do #but i'm just finding it so hard. disheartening. btw the 2nd one relates to some official art of qif wearing a dress like the girls #and the 4th one relates to how i've been drawing EXTREMELY SMALL for years. idk how to explain it but i always clicked 'fit to screen'#and so all my art EVER has looked bad when you zoom in bc it's already like size 1 zoomed in to the MAX pfhgguguhfpfhGHAHHHHH #i was so confused allll this time why brushes always look different for me than what they're supposed to #'wow this brush is so jaggedy..really rather jaggedy...calling it the Jagged Cai Special..bringing it out for those jaggedy moments..#really quite jaggedy i must say...' and it's literally not jaggedy #but now i have to get used to how all those brushes that i'd gotten used to indeed look how they're supposed to finally. Alarming #I have simply been working out absolutely everything by myself for years and that's why my technical progress is slow #ppl say my progress is fast and i certainly have improved much since i began doing all this but #like..it took me a year and half to start using a program where i could Colour In The Lines aka the..whatever it's called. whatever..#just on my lonely confused solemn journey to express gay love better than yesterday.. -_- *picks up my pack n continues through the snow*#btw thank you sm for people's kind words enjoying my narumitsu art & fic over the christmas & new year period <3

it ever hit you out of nowhere that castiel is living in a dead guy's body and the show just does not care. it does not care. jimmy novak might as well not exist the moment he or claire is out of sight. cas stole a guy's body and his face and his life, and we can't ever talk about it or discuss it in detail because of how fucking horrifying it is that sam and dean's best friend just walks around in a dead guy suit. there's not even a human soul in there anymore. it's just a corpse. stone-cold body snatcher indeed.

#castiel spn #spn #this is not like a Castiel Crime (tm) to be clear. this is more me being (un)surprised that the show is Like This.#castiel is a horror story he is so much a horror story in the rapture #and then they just uh. never bring up again how horrifying and fucked up this is for another like 7 seasons #and when they do its to briefly go :( claire lost her dad :) but its okay! she forgives cas for it!#which!! NO SHE SHOULD FUCKING NOT!!!#but we can't have that discussion. we can't talk about that. because to acknowledge that it's fucked up would mean making cas kind of. evil #in a way that would vastly improve his later character arcs btw. if we had to reckon with not only this massive transgression #but with the fact that cas himself STILL DOESN'T SEE IT AS ONE.#that on a lot of fundamental levels. he is still functioning as he did in s4. a lot of that base programming is still there.#something something how cas never changes out of his suit under his trenchcoat #but it's like. jimmy said yes. so it's fine. that's what it is to him.#anyway. i wish they hadn't been scared of making all three of the boys more fucked up in later seasons.#thank GOD for dean being interesting in how he becomes Worse <3 because they were not bringing that for castiel.#again. good version of spn where jimmy's bloodline is an off-shoot of the lucifer vessel bloodline. explaining a) how lucifer Got In There #and b) letting lucifer possess claire later so that the two of them can have daddy issues together.#something about cas being the monster-not monster that jimmy let in that destroyed his life.#something about lucifer being the monster-not monster that castiel lets in later. the cycles. they are cycling.

I found myself surrounded by companions daring to tackle a real software architecture challenge. We shared a good wine and cheese to conquer it together! (Unfortunately, there’s always something waiting to be dealt with on Monday.)

The glow of my Neovim terminal in Monokai theme reflects my rhythm — a guy who doesn’t stop on weekends but knows that balance isn’t about being all-in, all day.

The setup screams character: a seamless fusion of productivity and comfort. Lazygit commands at my fingertips, a Ghibli-esque avatar paired with Neofetch adding a touch of Tumblr aesthetic, and a playlist of Korean indie OSTs playing in the background to add depth to every keystroke.

This is how I drive — in code, creativity, and moments that are unapologetically mine.
