“Mandatory?” Liko scratched his chin thoughtfully. “I doubt it. How can you have fun at a party you’re forced to go to? Though, I wouldn’t know for sure. I’m just the janitor.” He cringed inwardly, thinking about giant mess he’d have to help clean up in the ballroom later that night.

“Why? Scared to go?”

@rae Aww Chase 🙁  The twins would have visited him in the hospital, but they didn’t know that he was there and they didn’t have much time to wonder about him.

@stephie
Oh yes, I’ll be praying! <3

@theducktator
Yay!! Praise the Lord!!!

@grcr
Ah, I should have mentioned the skin. She’s got light skin, probably on the paler side to contrast the freckles. 😛 And you are fine to mess around with the shirt and shoes!

@rae

It’s funny… your shadowed eyes remind me of me. 😆 How many kitties do you have right now?

I already posted this on the other art topic, but the purpose of this is to improve. So, here it is again. 😅

This is probably just a matter of practice, but my lines aren’t very deliberate. Sometimes I go harder with the brush in places, and it’s just a matter of random impulse. In ‘educated’ art, it looks purposeful, but this doesn’t feel as p…[Read more]

@rae

Is that a partial face reveal I see? 🫢

@ellette-giselle

WOW!! Those are awesome!

Thx! 😊 I’m trying to get comfortable with the line of action and forming the mass of the figure around it. It should make my art easier to look at. That’s what they say… Must… get better… *Eye twitches*

@ellette @keilah-h @rae

I guess Pinterest is the place to go, then. XD

@grcr

Yayyyy!! If you have trouble with her, take as long as you like, you’re the artist! <3

Aah I’ve never done this before, that I can remember. But I have a character! I love your art style and this sounds so fun! 🙃
Name: Izzy. But that might change.
Age: 15
Personality: Izzy is the definition of chill. She has a bit of a romantic dynamic with the main character, and she’s generally viewed as the quiet cool kid. She can be distant…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Ooohhh, that’s convenient. XD Thank you!

I woke up sick so I might not make it

I’m a bit late to this.

My art definitely bleeds into my writing a lot. All of my stories have some sort of color palette in my mind, and a lot of my characters, especially from Paper Stars, started as drawings I made. (Ex. Dante, Lemonhead, Mel) And my obsession with turning my old school work into origami stars a few years ago is what inspired…[Read more]

Even you were wrong, but believed you were right, I still think it would be good to disagree with the other person.

All of what I said still depends on the situation and the intentions of the people involved, though.

@stephie

Yes. There are some social situations where it would be inappropriate or pointless to start a fight with someone like that, but if the topic came up, then yes. Tell what you believe is the truth. Staying silent or affirming a something that you do not actually believe in is deceiving the person you are talking with. Yes, it might sting…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Ohhhh my wordddd

Ok that actually makes so much sense. I felt like the story was moving too fast and wasn’t exactly sure how to slow it down.

Thanks for pointing that out!! <33

@grcr

Mmm. If that’s how other books do it, I guess it could work. I looked it up and some people say to extend the vowels and smooth con…

@savannah_grace2009

Mmmm…that does make sense, I’m just not sure how to do that.

Instead of “hope”, my characters are trying to fix their problems themselves. Which might be a “false hope”, but I don’t really see it as hope. I understand what you mean, I’m just not exactly sure how to do that.

Ok! Yeah, again, do what you wanna do. But if you…[Read more]

@keilah-h

I don’t know what they’re talking about but it seems to be serious.

😂

@loopylin @mineralizedwritings @rae @ellette-giselle @anyone

Where does everyone get their photo references for practice? I used Pinterest for the art on the last page, but I’m wondering if there’s a better source…?

Pinterest has lots of stuff, I’m just curious. XD

@keilah-h

I like the expressions! Looks like you use Procreate too, lol.
