Hello I put way more effort than I needed to into this, but have it anyway :P

Boniface meets Bonifire, what will they do :P

A version of this page without text because technically this was the first page I drew and put all my effort into that one first lmao-

#bonnie #bonnie isat #bonifire #in stars and time #isat #fanart #isat spoilers #isat act 6 spoilers #my loopified bonnie (who is creatively named bonifire) is herently a lot of effort to draw #so the fact that i went out of my way to 1) paint the favour tree again like my loop image that one time #2) make it a fucking 2 page comic #and 3) paint the path TO the favour tree as well #can you imagine how my knuckles feel right now?#also high fidelity bonnie finally (or their face at least the poker game they were viewed from behind)#i like to think that bonifire doesn't actively hide the fact they were bonnie once but they also won't say it outright #unlike the others who would make a name to try and hide the fact that it's hopeless to get out of the loops to their respective looper #bonifire who is still a pre-teen who still had no idea how to feel about their name just lets bonnie pick name and pronouns for them #read; bonnie called them a bonfire and bonifire's immediate thought was to make it a pun #siffrin would be proud (that is if he was still around and bonnie's version of him knew them)#bonnie takes a little while to actually understand that bonifire is them but they've gotta get their head around looping first #it's less doing detective work to figure out a secret and more so finally learning what things mean and seeing retroactively the obviousnes

Hiya! I'd like to ask how do you do your ms paint art? Do you first make the outlines and then colours, or perhaps vice versa? I really adore your ms paint art and would love to know the process (for practice purposes:))

Depends! My two strategies, featuring Cactus Gunman of Gregory Horror Show fame:

I often just color right on top of my sketches when I'm being silly + designing characters + just trying to figure out what something looks like (and tend to use this to fiddle with details and colors) It's usually quicker for me to end up with something that I'm happy with.

Most of the time when I bother to do separate, cleaner line art, it's because I'm making a graphic for my website. LOL. I think it feels a little more cartoonish-silly, which is usually what I'm going for when I decide to do this. It's also a bit harder to make large changes to whatever I'm drawing, so I'm usually working off of a messier thing I've already made.

(Technically, I no longer use MS Paint and instead use Aseprite due to becoming a Linux user, but nothing has really changed about the way I draw + all of this can be done in MS Paint just fine.)

#I've found that I actually have a harder time making color palettes in Aseprite than MS Paint (I used to use the marker tool to mix colors)#(and haven't yet found out an equivalent tool to mix colors together)#Anyway the only feature that I use regularly in Aseprite that MS Paint doesn't ''have'' is easy transformation controls #(Paint has transformation options in the skew/scale menu but not every computer supports the trick I used to use to rotate stuff)#Also you can animate in Aseprite. There's layers but I don't use them.#beebfreeb art tag #funny talking tag #This was probably a little more talking than you expected but I am very particular about these sorts of things.#Anyway I am so mad about how my favorite version of MS Paint has absolutely no Wine support and that everything that I've looked up said:#''Just use a different program'' With different features? I want THESE features RAUGHHH (Then I learned Aseprite has similar eraser tool)#(and lets me make selections of all of one color on my canvas. Nice.) (I still don't know if I am a pixel artist or not.)

"haha, are you an art gay, a science gay, or a math gay"

Actually, I find the division between art, science, and math to be a very nebulous idea and useless when you actually interact with the universe. The more you learn about the world, the more you surround yourself with art and science and math, and you'll never be able to see it any other way and it will be beautiful. When I take your hand, it won't be the science of our atoms closing the distance between us that we will experience, but the math of our fingers interlocking and the art of our bodies that we will experience. You are math and you are science and you are art, and nothing will make you any lesser💛

#positivity #the planets are singing right now. are you listening?#if you can't experience the art of science and the science of art then i think you're missing out #the more i intentionally try to learn the more i love art and sfience and the world 💛#i was always more of a humanities person but i've grown restless and taking up science??????? holy shit??????#i was in class the other day and a very simple concept finally clicked in a fundamental way and i think that's why i'm alive actually #i think i know how michaelangelo felt when he painted the creation of adam #this is why i really encourage y'all to look up on youtube some free lectures because some of them are so amazing #like i watched a lecture about elements and it's still fucking me up when i think about it #this is also why i despise the whole 'modern art isn't really art; it takes no skill 😡' thing people like to do #please sit down and paint one of the installments of Who's Afraid of Red Yellow and Blue #i've learned to appreciate that installment and art series as of late and i think it's nice art #i love this stupid fucking world 👾

cannot explain it in a way that makes sense but this is all i think about whenever i see this still.

#yapping #abijah fowler #heiji shindo #fowdo #blue eye samurai #like not this photo exactly but the general vibe of the person sitting in a fancy chair and their partner standing beside them #just the first example i found #saw this still again while scrolling through dms and had to be silly for a second 🫶#the symbolism… how the usual idea was the person sitting was the one who ruled the roost..#the irony thay the situation here is completely on reverse… not like heiji ever believed thay #makes me want to learn how to paint

long as fuck nails always painted with at least a clear coat club:

saiki kusuo

teruhashi kokomi

kaido shun

saiko metori

imu rifuta

nail biters club:

kuboyasu aren

yumehara chiyo

arisu makino

suzumiya hii

nendo riki

aiura mikoto (with fake nails over top)

(formerly) kaido shun

(formerly) toritsuka reita

(formerly) akechi touma

normal short nails 🙄:

hairo kineshi

mera chisato

satou hiroshi

toritsuka reita

akechi touma

#idk why i made this its just funny to me #i was just looking at how long my nails are rn and this came to mind #i think akechi bit his nails as a kid and then learned how much bacteria is there and snapped out of it so quick #ur gonna have to trust me on aiura cuz i just know.#she has to constantly resist the urge to bite off her press-ons but theyre a little tougher than normal nails so she still chews on em a li #kaido used to bite his nails BAD but he broke the habit a while after he started painting them #cuz swallowing nail polish constantly is really annoying and gross and DEFINITELY wasnt making him choke or anything noo shhh #im not rlly sure of my reasoning with toritsuka.. i just know #i couldn't decide for kusuke tbh cuz i feel like he just doesnt give a shit #but for him does that mean he would just let them grow out forever or that he would just bite them tf off ?#he would probably need short nails for all the hand work he does though so #maybe he maintains them normally but only for that reason #we all know he doesnt take care of himself so he wouldnt do it if he didnt need to #saiki k #tdlosk #the disastrous life of saiki k.#meows post

The man truly can’t take a genuine compliment 🙄

#my art stuff #digital art #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #astarion #astarion ancunin #this is part of a series I like to call “I’m never settling on a singular detailed artstyle”#I have no consistency in drawing realistic people/characters other than my shapy cartoon style #but I truly don’t get enough opportunity to properly shade anything with art in that style-!!! it always looks weird to me-!!!!!#I think some rude lil worm in my brain is wriggling around telling me it’s a futile attempt at still doing realism #cus I’m one of those “gifted” artists that grew up promising his parents he’ll end up among the big names or whatever #constantly training to become better at art but with realism oil paintings as the goal #you know how it is 😔#I wanna shade my lil funky designs but they never feel good enough to really put energy into or whatever so I compromise with stuff -#- like this where I try to draw characters more accurately while still stylizing them and shading them however I feel like it #which is great and all but I should really learn to give my more relaxed and less perfectionist art a chance #I deserve to enjoy the process and the result without working myself dead #it’s so much easier and rewarding to copy cartoon styles - stylizing realism makes me too anxious of doing it “wrong”#at least cartoon styles give me a goal to reach or a reference to strive towards #man I really should just cut myself some slack altogether #either way - this man is a flustered mess and he’s embarrassed about being called adorable in public or something #being teased in an affectionate way about his sweeter side and stuff #don’t ask why he’s shirtless - anatomy is just a lot more fun for me to draw sometimes #tasteful nudity and all that is extremely gorgeous to me #i need to practice anatomy more cus I just kinda did some shit and went with it this time with a BIT of consideration for muscle structure

beardbecca if they spent the night together in amsterdam (real, not clickbait)

#TRUST ME #ohhhh you had to scrap beard’s storyline of reuniting with an old flame #bc it was too similar to Rebecca’s???? welllll why nottttt put them together #just talking and chatting …. getting to know each other since they’re basically strangers still …..#Rebecca learning more about beard and vice versa …#‘I didn’t know you spoke Dutch..’ ‘there’s a lot you don’t know about me boss-‘#going to that piggy stardust concert … beard trying to goad her onto stage bc he saw what she can do at karaoke-#coach beard #rebecca welton #come on. her letting her hair down. letting beard put some face paint on her #being able to be Rebecca and not miss Welton or former Mrs mannion or Anything to do with richmond #dancing together in some party laughing and having fun…..#he can help her let loose I am so serious. he can help her relax by this

time for clones

#hm i should make an original art tag #star wars #sw ocs #clone oc #clone trooper oc #cc mirror #cc beetle #cc watch #cc learn #my ocs #they don't work with any specific battalion or place or commander. they show up wherever they're needed.#and they do more than just the stuff listed there that's just like. their favorite specialties.#not 100% sure on beetle's armor paint. looks too simple to me. b ut I know not every clone is so colorful #he is long distance besties with kix. btw. i'm having kix tell him about the chips. so they can remove them before shit goes to fuck #watch's hair is that bright to make him easy to find. he definitely gets sidetracked and wanders off a lot #yes mirror's name is mirror because he does everything mirrored due to being left-handed #yes i know clones are probably trained to be ambidextrous. but he still favours his left more.#he might look serious but he's actually pretty chill. he gives his squad permission to be weirdos.#if the helmets and armor don't match that's because i lost my colors and had already fused the helmet's layers. a mistake i keep making

hey

#gravity falls #bill cipher #wip #i learned how to render!!!#yippee!!!#i do not want to sleep. i just want to paint bill.#as soon as i started painting him a huge thunderstorm kicked up outside. i think thats a good sign #after i get everything painted im just gonna need to go through with a white brush and highlight the hell out of it #to match the style of the original poster #im holding off on doing all the really intricate texture stuff yet but dont worry: his teeth will have texture #im also literally so jazzed about how the cliffs turned out #unfortunate that bill is blocking 90% of them but thats just how it goes #im also still gonna go and finish the other little shop poster at some point #it wont be fully rendered like this but ill at least give it clean lineart #also have yall seen robert ryan corys original illustration for pyramid bill #it rules #fluffle art

I tried to mod something and the good news is, it didn't crash the game. 🥳 The bad news is, not what I was looking for lmao.

Like, don't get me wrong. I've seen way worse (the stuff of nightmares) on a modding channel I've been teaching myself this stuff lately, so. It's not like I completely fucked this thing up or anything like that.

It's just... I still gotta ask though.

What went wrong here?

#personal #my mods #(sort of kjdkd)#i was just lamenting this stuff on a fandom discord channel. saying i'm at my wits' end here and about to quit this shit #i tried following a tutorial on a modding channel and i got the whole thing working for the most part #he's sized correctly. animations seem to work. nothing is stretching apart from hair. the textures are all fucked up now but yeah #but because what i'm trying to do here is a little different than what that tutorial does #(they still keep pointing to that very same tutorial though)#it seems that either i did something wrong. maybe i skipped some important part?#(because one answer claimed if it's a model extracted from the same game it doesn't need to be rigged or weight-painted)#but then that video tutorial also says you need to separate some parts so that nothing's stretching etc.#which is obviously a thing that's happening above. that hair is in fact stretching. A LOT #i'm guessing because cloud and zack have different hair. so they must have different hair physics or something #but then. i also learned on that channel that zack doesn't have his own animations. because he's neither playable/non-playable #because he only appears in this one cutscene towards the end of the game. he has his own model and textures though #so i don't know whether that means he doesn't have his own physics either or...?#meaning i probably need to use another model's hair physics as well and somehow transfer them on zack's hair too or smth like that maybe #i don't know. i'm so confused #like i've put so much effort into this. so many retries already. i'm getting sick of the shaders input part actually lmao #and i'm so close but i'm stuck!#i tried asking for help on a modding channel but because my question didn't get answered in a couple of hours i chickened out and deleted i #and now i'm like i need help. i just don't know what i did wrong 🙈 i need strength and courage
