hi….! any chance we can see your art process ? it’s fine if not! i was wondering if u do a sketch before your lines or you just skip directly to lineart? your art is very beautiful!

HI!!! AUGGHHHJHH THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH T__T my art style is kinda simple imo so my process is pretty bare-bones ^^;; there's not rly much too it!! it also kinda changes depending on how uhhhh lazy im feeling in the moment HAHA

probably around half of my drawings are straight to line art bc they're rly just doodles or things i decide to draw without any planning (but also im kinda impatient so i try to skip the sketching step if i can LOL...). but if i DO have a specific pose in mind for a drawing, i'll start with a sort of mannequin sketch or loose pass, then depending on how messy it is, ill either do the lineart pass on the layer on top or duplicate the sketch and then clean it up.

and then my coloring process is not sophisticated at all i just create a new layer and then paint bucket tool away LMAOOOO

here's an example of a drawing where i did sketch first ^_^

#clarification on the second image: usually when i make changes to the sketch i just go straight to lineart rather than doing a second pass #which i what i did for this drawing. i just like to minimize how many sketch passes i do (again bc i am impatient and lazy lol) #but also bc personally i get frustrated when my lineart doesnt turn out like my sketch so the solution my brain came up with is to.. #...skip sketching i guess LMAO;; #idk if this was helpful or not AHGHAAH my process is rly nothing fancy and there's not much to show T_T; #ALSO OMFG IM SOOOOOO SORRY THIS TOOK ME SO LONG TO RESPOND TO GKJFHDJG THIS WAS SENT LIKE A MONTH AGO I THINK T_____T #i saw this when i got off the plane coming home from a trip and then i remembered it a few days later #but then in the middle of writing my answer i left to eat dinner and forgot to save so when i came back the page refreshed #and deleted everything i wrote T____T AND THEN IFORGOT ABT IT AGAIN

There's too many things to look at in just one gif...

Giant biceps?Tattoos?Chest hair?

Low hanging trunks? The volume of the front of those wet low hanging trunks? The volume of the behind of those wet low hanging trunks?

The V-line and Abs?The Happy trail?(Even the armpits, if it floats your boat)

I am of the opinion that richie tozier has probably had his ideal marriage proposal to eddie planned out since at least high school. he's got a speech. he has a ring. he's booked and cancelled reservations at a nice restaurant ten or twelve times. he's just waiting for the perfect time. which never comes bc eddie beats him to it

#eddie proposes the second his divorce goes through. no ring no speech no fancy dinner #comes home. sees richie on the couch. asks richie to marry him. not even on his knees #richie still cries abt it though #reddie #richie tozier #eddie kaspbrak #it 2017 #connors hcs #richie being a romantic perfectionist is canon. to me.

He rwally is Jimmy's brother

HAHAF I can’t tell if this is a SAD thing or if this is a facepalm thing 😂 AND CANT WAIT TO FIND OUT!!!!

#limited life spoilers #out of context spoilers #the way I’m adamantly ONLY looking at my inbox and no other social media….. #I’m getting myself a fancy dinner to eat at home for this momentous occasion after this last client 🙏🙏

sometimes i think about what would have happened if richard had died instead of henry and the rest of the book had been narrated the song of achilles style and it hurts

#raj shitposting #imagine had the fight led to the gun being thrown out the window. had henry seen that richard was shot. had the ambulance been too late.. #that is the saddest thought i've ever had #henry would quit college. buy the estate he had seen with richard. live there with all his stuff and sob into his clothes like a baby... #he'd go to california every christmas and spend the time alone in some stupid hotel and become absolutely fucking unhinged. #he'd tend to richard's mother because ofc his father would run away from home that was the kind of man he was. #and he'd call no one but his own mother for her funeral because no one else would be bothered. #he'd send some money to richard's father along with the news and go about living his life like a goddamn widow. #that's the perfect word. widow. henry would be nothing but a widow. #the bmw would be the worst thing in his possession. he'd think about selling it but he wouldn't. #he'd think that anytime he had a semblance of thought that maybe richard was with him.. it would be in that fucking car. #he wouldn't sell it out of superstition that the car was the only place where he could safely feel richard and fall apart in his memory. #he'd cry like a madman every damn day in that car.while getting groceries.visiting francis at the country house.going for dinner with them. #he'd probably get a portrait done of richard. maybe of a photo of richard in some fancy clothes francis took at the country house. #yk those times rich people ugly cry by a full size painting in a burgundy robe with wine spilled on the floor by them clutching their chest #as if in physical pain and agony? that would be my man henry. #he'd be too out of his mind to even remember that maybe that day he killed charles too because nothing seems to matter anymore. #henry winter #richard papen #winterpapen #tsh #donna tartt #the secret history #literati

I have this whole week off and it will mostly be used for house decorating but I decided to make today my treating myself day and it has felt sooo luxurious

#woke up lateish and stayed in bed until it was properly late #had a homemade brownie cookie for breakfast and continued reading the book i started in bed last night #walked into town for my ultimate special occasion treat (the ridiculously expensive but delicious starbucks beyond meat breakfast sandwich) #and a fancy iced coffee which i had whilst reading some more in the park on the way home #then came home and finished my book #my evening will probably be less luxurious (emptying the dishwasher + cooking dinner + walking the dog once it's cooled off outside) #but for now this is the most relaxing day off i've had in forever #talking

[birdmenmanga]

why is it +20 for spicy... is the spicy that good or something...

#just thinking thoughts... #it's for beef noodle soup... #there's an add-on called 'hell' which usually means spicy.. #TEMPTED! but then I'm not storing up extra monies (lunch was 180 and the add-on would make dinner 120) #(daily budget for food is 300) #which usually would not be an issue but I'm eating out at a fancy place on sunday so. #ideally I'd have monies in store for that. #AND I DO... #I have 476 stored up and the place costs about 650-700 to eat at #but then it's like all my bonus food monies you know #it's because I bought 200 milk a few days ago -_- #(but milk is so important...nutrience... drink at home...etc.)

#i had such a nice time but still. going home and getting into bed is the best feeling #the fancy dinner was SO nice and my friend and i went to a bar afterwards which was lovely #we were basically just chatting shit for about five hours which was great (even if a woman on the subway was totally judging us for it lol) #i told my superviser i had a doctor's appointment at 4:15 and she wanted to meet at. 3:45-4:15 lmao #so i got completely ready (my cute sexy little dress and makeup and jewellery and my bag all packed) #and just put a sweater on over the top and did my meeting and then BOLTED the second it was over #we ended up getting to the restaurant pretty much exactly on time 😌 #anywayyy yeah i had a nice night i love you all i hope you all had/have nice nights too #if anyone reads this far send me an ask and tell me about your night 👀 or just like anything you enjoyed doing today #🧃
