Not to beat a dead drawing (lololololol, totally just made that up on accident because I typed the wrong words. XD) But I was looking at the two pictures and I know why I like the sketch so much better as Baron (or Barron? No….. it’s one “r”…. I think) anyhow. The colored in version is more correct to real life with the hair and wind…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

Interesting…… I may have to check it out!

XD oh boy, you like a good old tragic story?

Are you kidding??!?!? If I’m not crying at the end of the book, (and several times in the middle) I feel sold short.

Okay, lol, there are plenty of books I’ve loved that aren’t tragic, but yes, I love tragedy. I have a thing for it.…[Read more]

@loopylin

Aw thanks! I felt like sarcasm so that’s what we’ve got. XD

“No, I don’t. What are they?” He glanced around. He was perfectly fine carrying this fellow for another six hours or so. What was bothering him was the fact that he wasn’t sure where to go, and he also had a feeling that it was going to draw attention.

@loopylin

Rory

“Who said you couldn’t? And steal a what?!” 

@mineralizedwritings

Idk If I’d recommend it here it’s pretty tragic.

Ooo! *is immediately interested. XD*

@rae

Wow. That is the best drawing I think I’ve ever seen you do. The coloring is perfect! The shading… the tones… it really looks 3D!! Wow! Great job! (Personally, I like the hair direction and expression of the sketched Bar…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

You’re welcome! (I love your quote btw, what’s it from?) and did you do your pfp?

@rae

AH! Don’t touch it! Okay….. maybe a little, but leave the eyes and expression and hair. It’s perfect!!!

@mineralizedwritings

WOW!!! Love that! The shadowing was really well done.

The only way I could imagine getting this kind of wind is if you were standing on the edge of a cliff or had a fan below you. Or maybe in a crazy windstorm.…

@rae

ah, now it’s all coming back to me. Yeah, give him a will to live and the original ending fits really well. Otherwise it’s juts a little flat, which is why I remembered it the way I expected it to go when I read it the first time. No yeah, It’s coming back now.

@keilah-h

In a book like this one it would be up at the top for me. It makes the end fall flat. *shrug*

@rae

hey, dump away.

Well that’s good! (forgive me if you already mentioned it and I forgot, but do they know yet what the condition is that is being treated, or is this more of testing out theories?)

Well, friends of mine who have eating problems I always take them on a run or something or to go do some hard work. Nothing like exercise…[Read more]

@rae

Honestly, I don’t remember my initial reaction, you would have to look back at the comments. XD But actually, in my memory (until you just recapped it) he was going to turn himself in and then they were attacked and he was killed protecting Jenna (?) and her family. I like that ending because Baron gave his life for someone instead of taking…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

Yay! And the art turned out so well! Realistic and yet whimsical in a serious sort of way. Is it watercolor and ink?

@mineralizedwritings

Oh good! His character design is so cool. Hope it works out! Computers can be an adventure.

That’s amazing. It makes sense that it would work, and it’s so cool that it can. Like a shield from some sci-fi book. *Makes a note to look into it before I start my business Instagram account*

Really! I shall definitely try that.…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

I do understand that. He’s a great character, but different seasons of life call for different kinds of inspiration/expression. I’ve got a few like that. Have you worked more on Flit’s project? (I don’t think I spelled that right. The translucent bird boy. That was a project if yours, right? )

That is a valid reason not to…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Yes of course! I’ll compile some ideas and get back to you later this week!

(Mayyyyy or may not have forgotten about this 🫣😂)

@mineralizedwritings

I’m enjoying thinking of him growing up. It’s a little bittersweet.

Welcome! And if you do want to share some of your more recent style I’d love to see, whether it’s seeing old characters grow up or getting introduced to new ones. 🙂 Plus, seeing other’s styles develop is encouraging.

@rae

He looks good! His expression is so intense… Poor guy.

I wouldn’t worry about the earlobes. Asymmetry is a part of nature. Mine are uneven too! So it wasn’t a mistake, just accuracy. 😉

@loopylin

Rory

He looked up and down the street. “Do we take the bus…. or do I continue to carry you?”

@rae

Wow! I like the combed look, (though the wild one is more Baron-sih to my mind. XD)

Yes…. *gets a ruler* yes, they are a little uneven, but I never would have seen it if you hadn’t said it. I guess next time, lay down a ruler on the pencil sketch to check that, lol. 🤣

But really! This looks really good! I like it a lot! Though I have to…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Did you know that today instead of the 25th was originally the day that children got presents? (Personally, I like waiting almost a month for them instead of getting them right away.)

Same.

@koshka

Sure! That sounds fun!
