Have any art tips, your art is cool and I've been trying to get into digital art recently.
thanks :)
something ive learned recently: set ur layer to add on digital art for lighting - best things ever
but if you're just starting out with digital art, find a program ur comfortable with (i recommend procreate), and just play around and figure out what brushes and stuff you like, find digital artists on youtube for more specific tips (i recommend LavenderTowne for more cartoon-ish style digital art, but some of her tips can be good for any style)
if you've been doing traditional for a while, it'll just kinda throw you off to start digitally drawing, but eventually you figure it out and get the hang of it and to have pretty much every tool and color at your disposal is cool, just gotta learn how to use them :)
but if you're new to art entirely, just draw and have a good time, like thats my biggest tip, explore your style while also having fun, dont worry if it's not the next mona lisa, that's not important, it's gonna take time, and there will never be a point where you will have the skills to draw every single thing you want exactly how you want it, its just impossible. also you can look at other peoples art also take inspiration to start creating your style, i swear though i feel that step by step tutorials can hurt your art SO BAD, unless they give a thorough explanation into why you are doing what you're doing, you haven't learned anything, and when you try to do it again, but in different contexts, it's gonna look weird, because you don't actually know what you're doing.
ALSO JUST GENERAL TIP JUST WATCHING PEOPLE DRAW, IT DOESNT EVEN HAVE TO BE A TUTORIAL OR ANYTHING, ITS JUST SO HELPFUL TO WATCH SOMEONE'S PROCESS
heh i don't know if this helps, i can totally give more specific tips if anyone asks ^^
*interrogates* do you feel interrogated?
omg ive been so interrogated, yes, yes, please stop now, it's to much
this scene exists and yet they still have top/bottom discourse about them
help I just remembered the first time I ever spoke to a gay man—age 11, on AIM—I asked him if he’d ever had gay sex. he said yes. unable to think of anything else to add I said “I hope you had fun!” and he replied “yes, thank you”
I prefer drawing people who aren’t smiling.. I wonder why.
time taken: 49mins
it amazes me that probably dozens if not more people are using/have used the phone + tablet wallpapers i’ve created over the years
someone who i will never know or meet liked my art enough that they wanted to see it every time they open their phone
insane.
