the story of one (1) glove

bonus:

#san #seonghwa #mingi #hongjoong #ateez #kpop #shrimp gifs #i have no idea why they're so lq OR why san's line in the 2nd gif is a different color than i selected... i guess adding text just fucks #with the quality or something because the gifs have lots of text and blurring but only one is close to 9mb. the rest is like 3-4mb (????)

I know it's a horrible tome to ask this cause your tablet died and shit but uhh how do you get your line are to be soft but still be prominent

LOL YOU'RE SO FINE

For the prominent lines and such, I just make sure to put my lines down with a lot of weight, since the softness comes more from the brush type! The actual soft part comes more from me duplicating the lineart and blurring that layer a good bit, in that case the thickness and weight of the brush doesn't even matter! Pen and default brush are good for defined lines, while the pencil and watercolor brush are good for softer detail. Most times I'm using the watercolor brush!

#ask box #Hope this makes sense still #There is a lot that comes from duplicating and blurring your layers #And coloring them! #Colored lines tend to blend in with the drawing way more which gives it an overall softer look #grrgrg I love softness

Art from 3 or so years ago. Some black Butler human au idea I had. There was more art than this but I don't know where it is

If I remember right Grell was on the chubbier side and was a college drop out trying to make the best of things while living with red and working at a movie theater. She was also newly out and still figuring out how to dress herself.

I think the endgame ship here was Grell x Seb. Weird. I genuinely don't remember shipping that.

examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk

#BEGONE!!! *wizard beam blast leaving a black smoking crater in the middle of the tumblr dashboard* #I think another downside to everyone doing everything on phone apps on shitty tiny screens nowadays is the inability to really see details #of an image and thus its easier to share BLATANTLY fake things like.. even 'good' ai art has pretty obvious tells at this point #but especially MOST of it is not even 'good' and will have details that are clearly off or lines that dont make sense/uneven (like the imag #of a house interior and in the corner there's a cabinet and it has handles as if it has doors that open but there #are no actual doors visible. or both handles are slightly different shapes. So much stuff that looks 'normal' at first glance #but then you can clearly tell it's just added details with no intention or thought behind it. a pattern that starts and then just abruptly #doesn't go anywhere. etc. etc. ) #the same thing with how YEARS ago when I followed more fashion type blogs on tumblr and 'colored hair' was a cool ''''New Thing''' instead #of being the norm now basically. and people would share photos of like ombre hair designs and stuff that were CLEARLY photoshop like #you could LITERally see the coloring outside of the lines. blurs of color that extend past the hair line to the rest of the image #or etc. But people would just share them regardless and comment like 'omg i wish I could do this to my hair!' or 'hair goallzzzz!! i #wonder what salon they went to !!' which would make me want to scream and correct them everytime ( i did not lol) #hhhhhhggh... literally view the image on anything close to a full sized screen and You Will SEe #I don't know why it's such a pet peeve of mine. I think just as always I'm obsessed with the reality and truth of things. most of the thing #that annoy me most about people are situations in which people are misinterpreting/misunderstanding how something works or having a misconc #eption about somehting thats easily provable as false or etc. etc. Even if it's harmless for some random woman on facebook to believe that #this AI generated image of a cat shaped coffee machine is actually a real product she could buy somewhere ... I still urgently #wish I could be like 'IT IS ALL AN ILLUSION. YOU SEE???? ITS NOT REALL!!!!! AAAAA' hjhjnj #Like those AI shoes that went around for a while with 1000000s of comments like 'omg LOVE these where can i get them!?' and it's like YOU #CANT!!! YOU CANT GET THEM!!! THEY DONT EXIST!!! THE EYELETS DONT EVEN LINE UP THE SHOES DONT EVEN #MATCH THE PATTERNS ARE GIBBERISH!! HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THEY ARE NOT REAL!??!!' *sobbing in the rain like in some drama movie* #Sorry I'm a pedantic hater who loves truth and accuracy of interpretation and collecting information lol #I think moreso the lacking of context? Like for example I find the enneagram interesting but I nearly ALWAYS preface any talking about it #with ''and I know this is not scientifically accurate it's just an interesting system humans invented to classify ourselve and our traits #and I find it sociologically fascinating the same way I find religion fascinating'. If someone presented personality typing information wit #out that sort of context or was purporting that enneagram types are like 100% solid scientific truth and people should be classified by the #unquestionaingly in daily life or something then.. yeah fuck that. If these images had like disclaimers BIG in the image description somewh #re like 'this is not a real thing it's just an AI generated image I made up' then fine. I still largely disagree with the ethics behind AI #art but at least it's informed. It's the fact that people just post images w/o context or beleive a falsehood about it.. then its aAAAAAA

are you willing to share what art program and brushes you use 😵‍💫 your art is tasty bro

#i’d o all my sketching and lining in procreate bc tinderbox owns my ass #flats are really easy w that tool in clip studio and i mostly just use the round brush #and then blur and blend tools for everything else #the fur details on hyacinth are me using the blend tool to drag chunks of color

Heyyyy it is the last day before abrupt Christmas mood kicks in xD Sorry for a quick doodle, I really had no much time on my hands but I got the holiday spirit at the last moment

#bloodborne #graveguard dores #byrgenwerth gatekeeper #patches the spider #lady maria of the astral clocktower #micolash host of the nightmare #laurence the first vicar #my art #halloween #you could probably tell that bats like Maria a lot xD #love coming with a creative idea of those forbidden woods chunks used instead of pumpkin lanters #only to put it on the background AND blur it hahaha #too bad i could not fit everyone tho #caryll rom and julie just bug damian for candy somewhere behind the scenes haha #not sure about decision to not color the line but again it was a quickie

[goddesstrolls]

I definitely didn't do as many "big pieces" this year, and I don't think I've doodled as much either

Part of it is that I've kind of landed on an art style where I can make it look good and relatively polished, or at least colored, with less work

#bastspeaks #blurring the lines a bit between 'colored sketch' and 'finished piece' #but i think there were only a few times where i went 'this is all i can do to this piece i can't do any more'

Merm Jeremy is so smol I would absolutely die for him.

Christine needs to come rescue him from rich and jakes flirting

Jeremy and the Royal Staff live in the deep sea, where very little exposure to sunlight gives them their moonlight-pale skin and brightly colored eyes, which are sensitive to the sun.

Michael and Christine (among others) live up in the shallows, so they have darker eyes and tanner skin (not depicted since this is just a doodle djdbksbs) to protect against the harsh rays of the sun.

Sirens (namely chloe, who is full siren), who move freely about the ocean depending on whether or not it's "sailor season," come in a wide array of "natural" skintones to fool their prey, but can have eye colors all over the color spectrum to come off as more mesmerizing.

#merms #asks #be more chill #jeremy heere #michael mell #christine canigula #michael being half siren is a recent development so the line is blurred with him #im sure ill do fully colored illustrations of the rest of our merm squad but until then #bmc #bmc musical #be more chill musical #boyf riends #bmc jeremy #bmc michael #bmc christine

Aye more experienced digital art folks, how do I make smthn look distant/ blurry without compromisin the quality of the stuff that's blurry?

#like i could just gaussian(?) blur the lineart but that looks kinda garbage when ya can see the line where the color underneath it ends #its really been preventing me from achieving my shitpost goals /j #im still tired as shit sorry if this makes 0 sense #*dies* #okie ty mwah mwah #elliot rambles

hussie self inserting themself into homestuck isnt that bad and has some of the best jokes and gags in the series

No cuz yea i would make myself marry vriska if I could I get it

Evidence below:

#ask #hussie can be over the top i just think i would never actually do it the way he does bc it invites so much parasocialism/4 people to treat #the real life person/the creator as a fictional character. like thats just the kind of line id hate to blur cuz i mean look at the fandom #hussie is a full grown man and i was criticizing his life decisions as a 13 year old ....i would never let that happen to me personally 😝 #homestuck #im wearing the lesbian flag colors!!! how cute
