"I think this is the most inhuman; and human, that I've ever felt.." MUCH CAN HAPPEN IN A YEAR. IN FIVE YEARS. A DECADE. imagine how much can happen in a century. just ONE (1). How will you grow? what phases do you find? even in 5 years, you will find patterns.

reminds me of a snes controller
#my art#ms paint momence#bungou stray dogs#bsd sigma#bsd nikolai#the silly the silly the silly the silly#I have such a backlog but I do not want to post it all at once so daily posts for a bit probably#this one is like a month old I think? from when I was still clawing my way out of huge artblock#everyone say thank you sigma bsd for tossing a rope down into my artblock pit so I could be free finally

your mechanitor's message series has me wanting to draw art of my own colonists
I highly recommend drawing RimWorld pawns as a great way to practice art! I sometimes feel like I should try harder to figure out digital art because of all the stuff I end up drawing while I'm playing. I'd save a lot of money on sketchbooks and paper if I was drawing on my laptop.

I have a whole bookshelf dedicated to sketchbooks, and my desk is running out of room for pencil pots!! Still, I enjoy looking back at older art and feeling like I've improved—and like I'm improving a bit more each day!
It's definitely worth trying, in my opinion, and if you ever feel like posting your efforts... Well, I can never get enough RimWorld content! <3 <3 <3
#asks#rimworld#gracie plays#excuse the rumpled bedsheets#I couldn't find a better backdrop#but yes this is a small selection of sketchbooks I've used for rimworld series#not all of them#I think there are three missing?#three at least#but yes#You should draw your rimworld colonists!!#It's so much fun <3#it makes the game feel more alive#and also makes it easy to come up with ideas on days when the artblock hits hard#which is always nice#thanks for the ask!!#have an amazing day!!! xoxo

j need to get back into life drawing post haste

#i think im losing . construction in my art#im forgetting how to draw bodies think. idk#literlaly so annoying . its like fun when u get the hang of things but then u neglect one aspect in pursuit of another#and then have to go back and touch up that old skill to try and balance jt and theres that brief period where#eveyrthing is harmonious and then it outpaces itself again and becomes ths juggling act#overall i enjoy it . the drawing sessions but smtimes finding the will 2 get out of bed is like pulling teeth#bc i know im never going 2 walk out of there feeling satisfied but . actually idc#a lot of my pals . my friends there r a couple of decades older than me and they have the best advice tbh#randy. and donna . randy and donna and third guy whose name i forget . -> if u r satisfied at the end of a session did u rly learn anything#always want 2 improve . right right#UARHGHQHHH ill do it ill go . im scared bc i feel like it tends to artblock me#bc i start getting in my head ab what i know/see vs what i can only draw#but im sooo addicted 2 wanting to get better . i want to draw like a million people i see on here who have that great construction and#weight and anatomy and dynamism . i want to be like u . ill work to be like u ill try#and i feel like ive negelcted my basics for soo long .. i need to get ths foam shapes and a lamp . NOWWWW#yotasuke#i miss yotasuke so much.damn. thats crazy . anyways#the way he points out that yatoras dedication/hard work is a talent . like ueah . i agree w him im envious of that r u kidding me#and ytora walkimg arnd like oh u have it so easy ytsk. he needs to shut the hell up smtimes#i meed to see them eviscerate each other blood and all.#spongebob icecream truck- not that yatoras hard work isnt Also a skill but ykwim . if youve read YKWIMM#bc he was always like woe is me im soo untalented and its like no bro u r you just manifest it differently . that natural drive is a talent#but that natural drive also takes skill to foster and nurture else it has no purpose .#no i cant be blp posting in the tags bye

Man. I felt like for a while that there was something missing from my art and I kept getting more and more frustrated with how I was drawing. And then I drew one (1) heavily angled piece and I felt my blood pressure lower
#cricket chirping#That advice that you should do studies + try something new when you have artblock is so real#I felt like I was losing my sense of 3d shape and turns out it was bc I hadn't practiced it in my art at all in forever

I mean.. I still clean up the sketches more or less-
#Random meme#Eryanbles#Yeah yeah.. Art is done when the artist says so#But still I spent years thinking I HAD TO make a clean line art every freaking time. No I don't ??#And after that I thought I could avoid it by doing lineless art. But I don't have to do that either ???WHAT DO YOU MEAN#No wonder I went through such a terrible artblock lasting at least a year lmao why do I pressure myself all the time- freaking hell#Also I know it's not the full scene but it's super long so have a shorten version of the meme

When I have so many drawing ideas but my hand refuses to draw any of them. In agony... orz...
#aria rants#playing the game of: is this artblock. is this lack of motivation. or is this laziness-- or is this possibly all of the above#its the fact that i wanna draw smth but then when i get started im suddenly like: ough... then all the energy i have just DEPLETES#and then i stare at the canvas with the messiest sketch known to man and i exit that cuz i have no idea how to draw suddenly#and now my energy is back up so im like: well i suddenly have energy again... what do??? so i open ibis paint again--#and its like im sisyphus but with opening and closing ibis paint like im playing with my energy levels just going up and down#its actually kinda funny but also like CHOOSE ALRDY CMON NOW to myself like: do you wanna draw or not???

today! on the agenda we have [tears paper away to reveal the single word 'do'] ...
#just me hi#today on the agenda i've added the words 'draw' and 'make valiant efforts' so >:3👍#//vv has sent me an ask and the sketching. oo it's sketching alright hfhs#am i going to make full character designs for these? probably i have no control in that aspect Hbfhvsfjs#if there is ONE thing i can consistently go all the way with it's character design. i literally could not tell you why that is lmao :3#there are nights where i design whole casts of characters and then Forget About Them ?????? like dude. why did we do all that hbfvh#really i made a cast of like 10 characters one night they all had their signature colours clothes jobs hobbies dislikes and personal#relationships and then i......... never thought about them again hhhfhsh#[holds them up like a wet cat] does anybody want a strange half-baked story with a cast of about 12 people who are all clones of one guy#who's trying to kill them. cuz man hfhsh#//anyway all the sidings from that i think i'm coming out of the Saute Mode#what's Saute Mode? well you see it's when i've already taken out the ready-made good stuff in my brain and now i need to put in new#ingredients and let them get hot and ready again. Saute Mode :3#sure it might just be artblock but i think i need an artbreak sometimes so loll#plus Saute Mode means i get to play viddy games without feeling guilty so YAY :33#but Saute Mode does Also mean i sort of don't. talk to anybody out of my own volition HH#it's the side of the coinage. you understand hfbvhs#//annnnnnywhoodle back to my sketching :>>#posing my wretched beloved.. you are strange and impossible to understand hbvhfs#/:3 toodles !

some studies from the past months + stuff that i'll definitely finish one day (<- lying) + rainbow dash i did for my friend but loved so much i wish i couldve kept for myself 🥲 this has been an art dump thank you and bye bye
#studies aren't very fun to do as they dont demand the use of much creativity but im terribly artblocked rn so its all ive got going on :/#i started that frankie stein WAY back when their doll got released but i rather finish it later when im more inspired 😬#this post is a feeble attempt at forcing myself to draw more. you have the power to end these patterns bitch!!!!!! <- (me @ myself)#my art

my fanart hands are twitching. hide your blorbos
#you know what#i had an entire explanation written out in the tags as to why i like doing oc fanart#but then#clumsy hands me accidentally closed the window#and now it's all gone :(#but basically it helps me get rid of artblock#so i can keep working on a big personal project im doing#i find it a lot easier to draw when the thing im drawing has a single solid ref#and is not just a fuzzy amalgamation of thoughts in my brain#and it helps me get psyched up about doing art again#so i have the energy to keep working on that project#so yeah#i guess nms oc art requests/ATs are kinda open#it really depends on my mood#but#i may draw some#or surprise someone#if they're ok with it ofc#please lmk if you have an OC and you'd prefer if i avoided drawing them#long tag rant over

Just another normal sketch/study. Still nothing weird about it.
#when he says i make sure our morale is good and our men are safe? this is what he means.#this is how he does it. trust me. i know. i know these things.#i'm in the weirdest timeline.#standing at a macklemore concert and he dons this fucking sparkly blue cape and i in all seriousness have a thought strike me#that thought is 'god i wish that were me'#MacKyleMore#gender envy just keeps getting worse and worse. idfk how i got here#regardless. my new fave artblock cure is grab a pic of macklemore and then Have At It#like You Know What You Gotta Do#rotp#fk#still wish i could show my current self to 11 year old me. just played ss. thrift shop just got popular. 11/12 year old me would be#beyond confused.#'WHO ARE YOU WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED'#I'm you but Worse.#Pain Changes People#I will NOT be a mannequin. The ego BANISH it.#TONIGHT (tonight) TONIGHT (tonight) TONIGHT (tonight) cuz tonight's the night amirite#i was too lazy to draw it but ephs in the corner cowering like get the fuck off my bar i swear to god i liked you better when u were emo#and depressed. i'm SCARED#and fordes recording the whole thing crying laughing bc he wovs his husband <3 uwu#'forde made me do it'#and he would. do anything. for forde. except the things that he wouldn't do naturally#ok im done.#AND WE DANCED.#idk i felt inspired 🙄#'If someone told you to jump off a cliff would you!?' Yes. Absolutely.#If that's what you would want. If that's what would make me useful? Yes. 100 percent. Your wish is my command. I'd do anything.

#another major downside of going through artblock for so long is that you accumulate a massive backlog#of things you wanna draw that it becomes genuinely overwhelming lol#and it's difficult not to like freak out that you won't have enough time to get around to it all#even though that would be completely ok like i'm not required to draw every idea i have and if i even only draw one of those things#thats already a win considering how little i drew these past two years#it's just hard to shake of the feeling of needing to make up for that? but that's not necessary idk why i feel pressured like that#i have a lot of weird expectations and perfectionism towards my art that made engaging with this hobby extremely difficult#honestly the reason why i made the artblog is to just deliberately dump unfinished and “bad” art on there#so i can hopefully get over my unproductive expectations and just focus on having fun with art again#i can already kinda feel it working bc when i think of drawing now my problem is not knowing where to start bc there is so much i wanna make#instead of like this dread that it won't be good enough#and that once i pick up my pen and get started i'll just spiral into having an existential crisis again lol#i moved from 'if i can't draw well i'm not worth anything as like a person :(' to#'i have a billion fanart and oc ideas and if I cant draw them all at once i will explode So instead i'm just gonna sit here and do fuck all'#that's progress in my book!!!!!#i'll go check if i have any more old sketches to post and then i'll just work on whatever i feel like rn#i keep overthinking this shit. i need to go with the flow and just draw. I don't need perfectly polished finished pieces#I'm just gonna work on stuff until i get bored with it and then that's the 'finished' piece no matter what it looks like idc!!!#that may seem counterproductive and perhaps a bit lazy? but that's gonna be my mentality going forward#bc i think ironically that's gonna be more productive for me all things considered#sry for the ramble ever since seeing that one post about old vs new art comparisons and polished/clean artstyles#that are uninteresting to look at i've been doing a lot of thinking and reconsidering what i'm doing with my art#many thoughts head full. just needed to get it out of my system

#sappuy posting but im really happy ab parali ve … ive never been so happy ab a piece of media before and i could say this ab a lotta media#but it changed my life. as a creative ive been looking for media that would make me this excited and overjoyed when just seeing a picture o#it but literally everything ab this has helped me out so much… i think ab my friend who introduced me to it and all the lovely people i’ve#met through it (hello !!!!! love ygsbyou know who you are) and quarantine and Bus Crash and lockdowns and jus having allen in my headphones#so it was all good and getting me out of artblock and being able to create again. also kenta was ofc the gateway for me to openly selfship#and im so glad im able to be in such a lovely community filled with genuine sweet and kind people. parali ve is just genuinely such a fun#franchise and im happy to see the characters grow and its done so much for me like i feel ive learned to be myself and ive become a person#that i recognize through it if that makes sense i just feel alive and glad to be living and creating and being w others who do like ivemean#to be. im really happy im still alive still listening to parali ve and i can have friends to share joy and excitement with i dont think i#could want anything more than that <333 aside from maybe kenta plushie of this fit.. i want tobury him alive if he told me give me all your#blood i would gladly become a crinkled raisin hes stunning im stealing this outfit from him baggy clothes and prison orange have never#looked soo good why did they handsomemaxx shiki anf kenta. kenta and shiki excellent jawlines high set cheekbones symmetrical wide lower#third positive canthal tilt i will find them and create a wax mold of them and hang their face molds up on my wall shiki would look so good#w his hair slightly parted kinda allen style yanno but also he could be covered in blood i wish they were covered in blood they could wear#like mc steve outfit and still look great i wish i could sew their fingers on my hand we can trade and when they rest their cheek on#their palm it will be me touching their cheek also their unnecessary amount of zippers so silluy … they are so handsome i might put them in#a glass case on display and pick a room where the light hits them perfectly but thatd be hard cause theyre already so perfect i want to sna#their necks and drown them for making me blush and my heart race like this ugh so silly i love them… i love them i love parali ve i love my#moots i love my god i love my country
