Yeah, I get it. Life can get in the way of our self worth and confidence, and sometimes it can ruin the things we may have loved once completely. Not that I’m saying you don’t have self confidence or anything.

I’m sorry that happened to you, and I really hope that you can find healing in whatever degree of hurt you may have gone through from…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yeah, sorry if I sounded judgmental. When it comes to things like arithmophobia, and dyscalculia, I completely understand. Sometimes your brain is just wired differently, or trauma, or whatever else has occurred that just makes it so that math or whatever else doesn’t work for you. I simply think that schools don’t teach the subject…[Read more]

Me: See’s everyone talking about how annoying their math classes are

Me: *sigh

Math will forever be the misunderstood subject😥

@whalekeeper

Yep, I use it all the time when conlanging. It’s a catalog of all the different sounds humans have ever made speaking some language. So you can find some exotic sounds there for stuff, like basic consonants and vowels, but also trills, stops, clicks, ect. It’s fun:)

@euodia-vision

Ok, do you think that this Darkness might give him a new name as well? If not, what language dose he speak, if your not into getting into languages, that’s fine, but it’s worth considering. If he’s the face, the charisma perhaps, then maybe a name that feels more heroic, but still off putting somewhat, depending on how much you…[Read more]

@elizabeth-hearten

Thanks! Yeah, I really like Septrum, my sister keeps saying it sounds not as cosmic for some reason though, so I’m still not sure. Hebrew is really cool! Thanks for point that out, I don’t know if I’ll go with it, but It’s definitely worth looking into. I suppose another thing is that the “planets” are not what makes up the…[Read more]

@euodia-vision

I think I need more context for him to know what your going for, but I think I like Kalos the most as a villain name, though it is simple.

@whalekeeper

Thanks!

No please, geeking out is the best! I am a Sanderson fan, and I highly recommend starting Stormlight, I’ve only had the chance to read Way Of Kings so far in the series, but it’s amazing! And yes, I’ve watched his lectures, they’re really good, and I also recommend them to anyone else who may have not watched them. The cool…[Read more]

@elizabeth-hearten and @everyone

Thanks for making this forum! I’m a conlanger, so the origins of most of my names are typically from one of my languages, but it’s always great to hear other’s thoughts. I think I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to things like this though, and worldbuilding in general for that matter, sorry if I ever come off that…[Read more]

@artsy-dragon

Yeah! That’s a great worldbuilding tip he gave! It’s really cool to be able to create a world completely different from our own, but when we ground it in a few subtle realisms, it feels far more tangible, consistent, real, even if those realisms are exaugurated. It can really add a whole other layer of depth to your world when you…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Thanks! I’m not sure if I’ve been able to make intrigue for his character in my actually righting yet though. I still struggle with characters. I can make interesting trials, but a character isn’t their trail, though that’s a big part of what makes them. I’m glad that I got your attention though!

@artsy-dragon

Thanks!

“How dare you not tell me how it ends lol.”

*gives a malevolent laugh

Yeah, I hope I able to get that effect with my writing. I think I have good pros, but I’m still figuring out how to really write my characters.

That’s really cool! Do you get into the actual biology of them much, or is it just the different…[Read more]

@artsy-dragon

Awesome, well in that case, I’ll give the summery.

It is set in the end of the first era in my septrum. It’s about a character, Tailen who is attacked by four dimensional beasts. They throw him back into three dimensional space, and turned out to be one of the very few that actually survived such a encounter. However, he suffers a…[Read more]

@artsy-dragon

She looks awesome!

Thanks btw. I’m glad I was able to catch feeling in it for you! I’m always open to telling you about some of the story if your interested:)

@loopylin

Thanks! That being said though, I really don’t think it’s a hard program to learn, it’s simple and intuitive. I think the hatred arises from the fact that it’s seen as a cheap program that doesn’t have a large variety of features, and it’s not always seen as a true “art program” because it’s mainstream use is for making diagrams for…[Read more]

@otherworldlyhistorian

Yep, lol! I haven’t even heard about any dev mode or OS! I really need let go of my strange obsession with my current software crutch and pay more attention to reality…

@keilah-h

Thanks!

@loopylin

Thanks! If you have a gmail account, you can go onto google drive and one of the features is google drawings. It’s a simple free vector art program, but it tends to be universally hated. I just like proving a point that it has great potential as an art program, you just need to learn a few tricks to abuse and take…[Read more]

Here’s one:

Hi Ya’ll! I just now skimmed through this forum, and I gotta say, Ya’ll got some EPIC art!

My niche is google drawings, I like abusing any random features for some cool visuals. here’s one artwork I made for a potential cover for one of my stories:

What do y’all think?
