yeah it’s hard! I’ve been trying really hard with dynamic posing this last year too, it’s a major deficit in my skills lol.

Oh and yeah, we should probably have taken this to the chat chat.

All discussion of anime now moving to the chat chat lol. Pls tag me over there if you want to respond to the…[Read more]

@keilah-h

It’s really good! And has a great art style like you said.

I think if the arc is done well and she finds other purpose in life it’s ok, it’s all about the intention, and if they are doing it for the enjoyment of the audience. Something I’ve noticed is that two different animes can have the same girl in a short skirt but one will use…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Ikr it’s so weird! I mean it’s worth noting that Japan has very little Christian influence and we have a lot here. Even if a lot of modern day Christians don’t all follow the bible our countries foundations still have a influence.

Yeah I’ve struggled to learn how to draw girls because of this too! A lot of comics have bad stuff in them…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Don’t worry I was pretty sure that was a typo lol.

The only reason why girl characters are in it half the time is for service 🙄 That is why I like the main girl from 86 ( I am going to reference that a lot XD) she is…. how do I put I??? She has a … flatter chest… I hope that isn’t inappropriate XD uhm… but yeah, she is modest. A…

@the_lost-journal

lol! yeah, I am still under eighteen, and can’t really watch shows with intense gore/fan service/swears. Like I watched cowboy bebop with my older sister and brother, and they told me to look away at parts XD. Studio Ghibli film are either PG, or PG 13 so I don’t really need any parental guidance while watching those. (If you rea…

Uhmmmm…. I am a boy…. ✌️🫥

(Why does everyone assume I am a girl?! 😭 A stranger one YouTube, @Ellete-gistle, you! A person I met a long time ago in karate! WHY?!)

Oh my goodness I’m so sorry! Well in the past when I’ve been active here there’s usually only about 2-3 guys active, sometimes none, I guess it was just an ass…[Read more]

@grcr

I really like your use of screen tones! Also the character design is cool.

@rae

I love how you used the white pencil to show the ripples!

@whalekeeper

Ooh that looks cool! The mid green for shadows looks so perfect, it’s like the background color reflecting into the shadow.

@the_lost-journal

Girl, everyone starts somewhere, people’s art changes over time, don’t apologize for whatever stage you happen to be at. Nobody is going to throw up, we’re happy to have people participate no matter where they are at! Stuff like this is meant to help us get better, not make perfect art. 🙂

@whalekeeper @loopylin

Here’s mine! Also thank you @rae for making this, it actually pushed me and I feel like I did something new : )

I made the pose myself (With the help of some anatomy references, struggled a bit with it lol). Anyways here’s Gojo Satoru from JJK.

@rae

totally would be interested, ty for the tag! Let me know if you make it happen!

@whalekeeper

Oops I totally missed this lol!

I get a lot of references from Pinterest, but I’ve heard theres a growing amount of ai art on it so ughhhh. There’s still good stuff on there. I usually use references from shows I like. I recently watched a Donghua called Link Click (wait I haven’t ranted to you about this yet lol, it’s such a great…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Yeah, that’s kind of when I relapsed into it too (about two years ago or so.) Yeah, definitely, knowing what it is gives it less power. I’m a lot better than I was a few years ago when it was worst, but I still have bad days every now and then. Nice to know that other people understand what it’s like too though. I kind of shy away…

@hybridlore

I’m sorry, that sounds really hard. You were able to find a doctor that seemed like she knew what she was doing, right? Have they been able to figure out different ways to help you?

Thanks. Unfortunately she didn’t feel qualified to take my case and sent me to the clinic where she learned and they messed up pretty bad. I improved a l…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Thank you girl! Yeah, basically. It’s a lot more than that though. Pretty much about a year ago, I realized I was never going to get better if I kept letting my parents take care of my health (my mom has been helping me with my health via vitamins and stuff she found online for about 5 years after multiple Doctors said I had no cure).…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Hey! Yeah, it has been a long time. I don’t come on here much unless summoned. Honestly I’m probably at the hardest point in my life rn so I’m doing pretty bad most days, but it feels like I’ve grown more in this year than my entire life somehow 😂

How are you?

@loopylin

@everyone what’s happening

they’ve been organizing video calls for the kp girls, I went a couple weeks ago.

@elishavet-pidyon

Aw thanks girl, yeah idk what I want to pursue but it would be nice to sell art someday.

I’ve really enjoyed the Lide! It’s the perfect size for me. The only problem I have is that the software is really annoying, but that’s pretty common when using a lower end product. It often will try to auto crop the image even though the…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

ooh this is really cool! I have a lot more experience making art than selling it lol… I’ve done fun commissions for free and stuff, but nothing for sale. I use a Canon lide 300 which is like 70 bucks and it’s been great! It’s a lot better quality than the usual one on a printer, probably partially because it can scan for…[Read more]
