Alright, I know this probably will be a silly and naive question but I’m really so so into your artwork and confidence related to it - I mean, I can truly feel (and see) that you give your heart and passion into it! So here’s my Q - I love drawing/painting, wish to get into graphic design but.. I really do not know where to start and with what. Any tips for a beginner?? Thank you so much and have a lovely day/peacefull night!!

Thank You ♥ OKAY! *claps hands* Good morning to You, because I just got up and made myself a coffee. I can't give you any drawing/painting tips because I'm really bad at it but I can at least try with something I create. Tbh they are all similar in 2D and 3D so lets go!

Two most important things that will make your art look much better:

Natural & realistic poses of your characters Inspire yourself with references from photos, videos, or even take pictures of yourself if you want to recreate something. Pinterest is your best friend.

LIGHTING You need to understand the lighting techniques and try to create them in natural way. I always ask myself "where does the main light come from? Is it the moon/sun from window? Desk lamp in the room? Light from the corridor?" and then imagine its path on 3d models and maps

Three lights are your base: key light, fill light and back light

+ I add a bunch of extra little lights, so sometimes there can be 8 in one pic, but you will "see" 3-4. Let's see it on my renders: Excuse my painting skills xd

I'm 100% sure there are more lights in all of them, but these are the ones I can remember.

-> Practice, pratice & pratice

-> Do not rush yourself. If you don't "feel it" and don't like how your work is turning out, start over again or take a break and come back to it later

-> Photoshop and photomanipulations are your besties

I hope it helps! ♥

Rindo Haitani doesn't do depression. Sure, he's been and seen a lot of fucked up shit in his life, but normally he would just suck it up and call it a night. He'd get sad yes— but to actually get into his feelings and maybe cry? 

Nah.

So you can only imagine his confusion when he literally cannot find the energy to even get out of bed. The only thing on his mind is you. Well was you.

He doesn't even have the energy to think. He feels like a blank canvas now, nothing on his mind, but at the same time has everything on his mind.

He wants to bring himself to talk to you, maybe apologise for overreacting, but then he'd be lying to himself, because he knows he didn't overreact.

You were willing to throw away your life and just move to a whole new country to meet some woman who probably forgot all about your existence since it's been 18 whole years.

Does she even remember your name?

Ran watched from the crack of Rindou's door as his brother just laid in bed, in the darkness like some edgy alt kid. Rolling his eyes, he obviously feels bad for his brother but Rindou isn't helping his case by hiding in his room all day instead of going out and confronting the issue at hand.

It's been a week and there's nothing but radio silence from Rindou and you were starting to get worried. You spammed his phone, messages and social media but nothing. 

You tried to contact Ran but that failed to since he didn't want to talk to you.

Your life felt like it was crumbling slowly. Every single day, something bad would happen that would make the previous day feel like nothing in comparison to. 

You and Aya spoke about it, and she told you that she felt like he was overreacting and if he really loved you, then he'd understand your decision. 

You and Akira spoke and he said the complete opposite to what Aya said, telling you that it was foolish of you to throw away a relationship over something like that, and there was other ways of coming into contact with your mother. 

You went to bed conflicted on what you should do. Deep down you wanted to be with Rindou, since he helped you take your mind off of certain things in your life. Being with Rindou just brightened your day tremendously, so you can only imagine how low you felt when he's flat out ignoring you. 

One night before bed, you brought out your phone, fingers hovering over Rindou's contact, contemplating whether you should ring him for the umpteenth time over the last week. 

Pressing the call button, your hands were shaking as the line rung, then hearing it go straight to voicemail, just like the other calls you left him. 

"Of course," you mumbled, sighing defeated as you tossed your phone on your bed. Covering your face with both palms as you fought the urge to cry yourself to sleep, just like every other night.

Till your phone started to vibrate. 

You thought it was Aya sending you some shitty voice notes so you ignored it. Dipping your head further into your pillow, until the vibrating stopped. You stayed in that depressing position for  5minutes, till you decided you should probably turn off your phone and sleep.

Just as you grabbed your phone, you saw a missed call notification from Rin ♥. You sat up too quickly it almost gave you whiplash. Swiping the notification and pressing call back as you bit your nails anxiously. 

Every single ring the line gave you increased your anxiety, stomach churning as you waited to hear his voice on the other end of the line. 

It was about 8 rings in and you were about to lose hope until you heard a faint, "Hello?"

"I'm sorry-"

"I'm sorry-,"

You both said simultaneously and you paused, "You go first,"

Rindou was silent for a couple seconds before speaking up again, voice faint. "I'm sorry, for um disappearing so suddenly and not contacting you. It was stupid and petty of me."

You looked down, feeling guilty that you even brought him to that point. "You shouldn't apologise for that. It was my fault that you even did that to begin with."

Silence filled the called and you shifted uncomfortably, not sure what to say. It has never been this awkward before. "Rin?" You called out softly to make sure he was still there.

"Hm?"

"I'm going to stay."

......

Silence again and it made you feel anxious. "Rindou?"

"Sorry I was just," Rindou muted the call as he processed what to say and not seem like a total idiot. "You mean that? Like for real?"

"Yeah, I did some thinking over the week and I think it's stupid to move all the way over there, cause like, what if she has a whole new family that I don't know about. I'll look stupid as hell trying to fit in somewhere I don't," You say, before pausing. 

"I get you," Rindou mutters, trying to sound all nonchalant but inside he's freaking the fuck out. He was actually going to call you to try and get you to change your mind, but hearing your voice just made him freeze up. 

He missed you so so much. He missed your voice, your face, your touch. Your everything. 

"Soooo," you say before pressing your lips into a firm line, "how've you, um, been?"

"You don't have to be so awkward," Rindou laughs airly and it made your stomach churn. He sounds so cute.

"Sorry, I just, shit." You looked down, "I missed you so much."

"I missed you too." 

.....

"We good right?" You just wanted to clarify and you heard him hum in agreement. "I'm so happy, the whole week I felt like total shit."

"Same here, I didn't even get out of bed." Rindou stated, "it was so bad, Ran told me I looked like an edgy alt kid." 

Rindou's smile grew when he heard you laugh. He missed that sound too.

"How are you by the way?" You sat up, feeling more comfortable on the line, "I shoulda asked that first hm?"

"I'm good— actually feeling better now that I'm hearing your voice. Dunno how I went 18 years without it to be honest."

Just as you were about to respond, there was a knock on your door, ultimately dropping your entire mood. "One second Rin," you say before muting the call. "What?" you called out to the door, sighing when your father's head peek out through the crack.

"Bed time princess." Your dad spoke out soflty.

"I'm not tired," you roll your eyes as you glare at him but he sent you a look that instantly made you feel bad, "Fine..."

"I love you, good night," He blew you a kiss before shutting your door. You took a deep breath before unmuting the call, "I have to go to bed now, sorry Rin."

"It's alright. Get lots of sleep, goodnight."

"I love you." you blurted out and you could hear his airy laugh before responding, "I love you too." 

You smiled as you ended the phone call, now able to sleep without anxiety.
