Oh, damn. xD; Even I go to bed at 3 or 4 in the morning. What time zone are you in?
|
Eastern. I'm in Ohio/US, so. xD
I'm a shut-in, in a tiny town with no jobs, so I've got the freedom to sleep whenever. lolol |
Aww, I miss those days. When I was in online school I stayed up until 7 or 8 in the morning and slept in 'til like 3pm. But now I'm lame and have work at 11:30. ._.
|
I miss going out and going to school, though. OTL
My school was pretty fun, since it wasn't a regular highschool, but a career center. I was in a class full of trolls like myself ( Digital Media ). xDDD ( Actually met my best friend with the opening sentence "here, you want my tumorous fetus yogos?" and that was the start of a neverending, strange friendship. Rofl ) +was the one guy in school with brightly colored hair that was different every week, and wore two different shoes every day+ e u e +was just a bit proud of that+ ... Imissit. |
I, uh... Don't mean to ignore your post... I was gonna say something, but I forgot what it was because I was sifting through your art thread, and.... Holy fuck. That is AMAZING.

"Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round. Help me, get my feet back on the ground, Won't you please, please help me." -"Help!" Beatles |
CupcakeDolly: Thank you ^^
I haven't updated for over a month, though.. @__@ I probably should. +laaaaaze+ |
You should!!
And you should... teach meeee!! I'll do anything!! ...Please? ;-; Funky, you need helps? Or are we singing karaoke? =o |
xD; As much as I am flattered and all, I can't teach. I learn everything on my own, so I don't know a method to it that I can share with others, lol.
+is really sloppy and disorganized with everything, including drawing+ Plus I've never taken an art class besides the mandatory one in middle school, but that was... what... ehh, like eight or nine years ago. @__@ So I wouldn't even know where to begin. xD |
Then... Then... Let me watch you draw something??
-creeper- I have to know!! I must see how you make de magicks! |
xD My tablet doesn't cooperate with programs other than gimp or sai ( which means streaming it would make things difficult ) and I do things in bits and pieces a lot of the time.
I'm also having a block at the moment. x__x There are a couple WIPs on my tumblr, but I haven't finished the picture yet. WIP1 WIP2 ( Just click the pictures to make them their original size. They're better in fullview. ) ... I wanna finish it. xD But I'm in hate with my hands atm. |
Wahh... Why are the best artists so flaky? XP
No... If that were true, then I would be a FANTASTIC artist. o__o Okay... Answer me this, then. What size/ppi do you usually use in SAI? And what tools do you use for shading and highlights? And HOW in the mother living world do you get your lines to be so dainty? And and and... x__x |
I'm just very spontaneous and whimsical. Rofl
Plus I'm a sloppy shut-in guy who has no organization to anything, and if I lived alone, my house would probably be condemned. >A> That should explain my flakiness. xDD Ah but.. gonna take a shot at those questions, though you might not find the answers satisfactory. xD The size of the image.. I start out 1024x768 and then I just expand or crop however way works. xD I shade... many different ways. If it's more anime-ish, I just choose a dark color that fits, adjust the opacity of the layer, and/or screw around with the blend knife tool. If it's more realistic-y, I just pick colors that look like they'd work, mess around with shade and luminosity, and scribble about with the blend knife tool. xD ( I paint with inker regular most of the time, but hardly with max density. I only max the density when I need to color something solid. ) Lines... I use inker regular at 1.0 size, with min size around 40-60% and density around 50-60%. I usually scribble it out first in different parts in a set, and then I'll make it hardly visible and trace over my scribbles so it'll be cleaner. I think that just over time, my lines got better. xD I've had my tablet since junior year of highschool after all ( that'd be like.. 5-6 years. ) and before then, I used to draw with a mouse. Hope that helps some. xD But mainly, I just explore. I do a lot with textures too, just to see how it'd turn out. |
I live alone, and I spend most of my time cleaning up my messes, because I'm sloppy shut-in girl. =P
Hmm... mhm... I see... -makes listening sounds- Okies! <3 I'm gonna try out some of those, if you don't mind. Some of those tools I've never even thought to touch before. My biggest problem is with my lines - I make them HUGE (like 3-5 pixels) and I can't keep my hand steady to save my life. I'm still not used to coloring and shading in SAI, I usually just switch over to photoshop when I get to that point. How long does it usually take you to finish a piece? I get frustrated with how long it takes me sometimes, I feel like I should just be whipping them out like it's no problem. Sorry if I'm bombarding you, I just... Eeee! Your art is so beautiful!! |
