Got the GGX Daisuke art tutorial halfway translated. I realized it’s going to be kind of hard to read even if I put the translation directly onto the images and, if I compile it into a tumblr post, it’ll be too cumbersome to navigate. So, I’m also putting together a GDoc of the translated text that will be much, much, easier to look at. 
I’ll still do a version of the scan that’s already been posted here with the English translation edited onto where the original Japanese text was to post here anyway though.

Artists getting sad after the „who’s the artist, what’s your age“ trend thing on socials. They see many of them being a very young age with already good skills.
Here my try for words of comfort: consider the differences when you grew up and how the younger gens grew up. Nowadays there‘s easier access to tools, gadgets and knowledge with faster paced society.
With better developed internet you can find all kinds of references, tutorials, brushes and whatnot to help you developing your skills or to get a better understanding of how each skill works (if traditional, crafting, digital and more). And now you have all kinds of places to share your stuff on and be part of a community that share the same interest for art and even can give feedback. Artists now using the internet as a platform to earn money and showing their how-to’s. What I would have given as a kid and teen to have that through a „simple mouse click“.
I remember back then when not every household had internet and even if, it wasn’t stable nor fast. You only had a few sites to visit, that you knew were save to go on, and even less sites when it came to art. I remember one german art site and years later on deviantart (and both were in their very toxic era back then. Very closed off at times and tutorials being seen like a „do not reveal the secret to it“ magic trick kinda vibe).
It was hard to find out about stuff because we didn‘t have that global connectivity and marketing etc that exists now to discover things.
And also being „limited“ as a kid and teen on what you could use. Nothing that was right at hand was digital. So you couldn’t experiment with media types for example. So no vast library on tools that imitate all kinds of things, i.e. brushes in procreate. Everything needed to be made traditionally with what you had. I remember I had two of those how to draw anime artbooks (and back then it were two out of very few options actually), pencils and a few copics. You had to make the most of it.
Photoshop you had to use by mouse and was veeery costly (one software CD cost over 2k). I think wacom tablets weren’t a thing until my late teens?? 🤔
And please don’t take this as a rant, I am actually feeling rather nostalgic about it. Those how to draw anime books were hilarious when I think about them now haha. I think I still might have one?? 👀 And I still have those very first copic markers 🥰
It doesn’t matter how you started or what age you are comapred to others. That you keep on making art is what counts. Skill needs to be developed, but passion and creativity/imagination comes from yourself. Skill isn’t what keeps you on doing it, but the love for it is.

JUST DISCOVERED UR CONTENT and if you ever make a coloring tutorial i would be aaaall over it… the texture diversity is so 🥹💖💖
a???? thank u so much ;_; being here is bringing me so much support, i had this kind of love before but never on splatoon. I'll try my best on explaiing how i color:
Tumblr media
BRUSHES:
For texture i mainly use gouche brushes that I found free in gumroad for photoshop to import them to CSP, I also use these but arent free,,, I also use Procreate.
I also use heavy paint when I'm in class, it's confy to draw with mouse in it.
for tradiccional i use any mechanic pencil out there i dont think mine has even a brand or something, and for markers i use touchlitt but now they have other name, copics are too expensive.
PROCESS :
This is how i made one of the pieces:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
For picking colors I try to reimagine them, they can be a bit more blue or red, or also depends where they are. You can do that by just adding layers on top of multiply/over with the backgound colors, or swap them.

When I was 13 I found out about Copic Markers on deviantart, which, according to the numerous tutorials on how to use them, were a magic medium that made everything look very pro. However, I couldn't afford them. Hammering the belief in my head that "A marker is a marker, how different could they be? There has to be a cheap brand out there that is just as good", I started buying all of the cheap felt tip pens that I could get my hands on to test the different brands. I also asked for pens and markers for every birthday and holiday with no regards on how cheap the brand, and then proceeded to murder the hell out of my sketchbooks by trying to blend with them like you would with a Copic.
I stopped using markers around age 16, much more enticed by coloring pencils and oil pastels, but because I do not throw away things that still work, yet they were too worn down to be donated, the sharpie collection stayed in a box to be sparsingly used over the years. I have carried them through the 7 different houses I lived in since then, checking before each time moving out if any of them had gone dry then packing them up.
Recently while doing a big autumn cleaning in my flat I got angry at those. How long was I going to have this box taking space in my room despite only being used once a year? I grabbed my sketcbook and decided that since I can't throw them out until they're dry, I'd draw with them until they did. So I spent a whole night just drawing random shit with them.
Turns out they have more in their belly than I excpected them too. Some of them have been half-dry for, at this point, almost 15 years, and they are somehow still kicking (or at least, kicking enough so I can shade with them). One night was definitely not enough to finish all of these bad boys. I managed to finish and throw out less than 10% of the collection, but in the process I rediscovered ways to have fun with sharpie and re-cement them as a medium that I can sometime use in my sketchbooks.

Hi, I had a question and I was wondering if you have the time youd be willing to share how the fabric paints you use on your plushies work long term? I'm trying to get into modifying stuffed animals and I wanted to paint/dye parts of a bear different color but I'm not sure how well fabric paints work on furry fabric or faux fur. I think you've mentioned using fabric paint before, so I was wondering if you had an advice on how to color or dye furry fabric. Your craft is lovely and I admire your skill a lot. Thank u :)
I've used a couple different things to paint my plush:
Copic markers: I don't recommend these. They leave a rubbery texture and fade with time and handling.
Golden Brand fluid acrylics/airbrush paint: I've only been using this for a few years and while they dry lighter than they go on, they don't seem to fade. I use these due to a recommendation from a fursuit artist who said they could wash their suits and not see this fade. However I haven't done any tests of my own yet.
Technique matters for how the fur feels after application. My next plush is going to get a lot of paint so I'm planning to write a post that goes more into detail on this. Short answer is: go on little by little, and brush a ton.
Dye: I don't dye fur. No one I know has successfully dyed fur. Best you can do is a very very subtle tint. But a few artists have successfully dyed minky, so I'd maybe check out NazFX's gumroad tutorials if you use that material.
More to come.

Commonly Asked Questions.
I get asked the same 3-5 questions all the time, so I thought I might make this new lil pinned post to help everyone out! But first, I want to thank you all for visiting my blog!
Do you take requests?
No, I do not.
Are your commission open?
Yes currently! Honestly now a days they’re almost always open. You can check them out on my website HERE!
Are you okay with gift art?
Of course! I would be flattered! If you’d like, you can find most of my characters here on toyhouse (I promise to update it soon!)!
How do you get the retro/vhs effects on your art?
I actually made a tutorial on that here! But honestly at the end of the day it’s a lot of “I plug this picture into several different apps and video editing software.” I wish I could give you a simple answer, but there is no easy way to do it that’s the same every time. I rarely if ever do it the same way back to back. Some colors look better when edited in Photoshop, some in Photomosh Pro. I pay almost $100 a month to have access to all of the software I use to make these effects because it’s part of my job. But luckily you can find so many free tutorials and apps out there, you just need to be curious and try new things!
What do you use to draw?
Another vague answer whoo! Sorry, but I use so many things to draw! But usually it’s sketch/ink/color/shade in Paint Tool Sai, and then move it to Photoshop to add the background, effects and details. I also use Procreate and Clip Studio from time to time. When it comes to traditional, it’s usually standard cardstock or a mixed media sketchbook. Then I draw and color with microns, copic pens, jelly rollers/gel pens, prisma colored markers and copic markers. 
Did you draw the backgrounds in your art? And if you use screenshots, where do you get them?
In the majority of my pictures, I use screenshots from old cartoons. I get these screenshots from the shows themselves. My friend is kind enough to set up a program that takes snapshots hundreds of times during the show. Then when the episode is over, they send them to me. I then spend HOURS, going through thousands of images and delete all but the good pieces. A majority of the time they take a lot of editing to be usable. I have to clean them up, remove character and scale the images.
This isn’t always the case however! I do often draw my own backgrounds! If you ever want to know, feel free to ask!
As for the more aesthetic/abstract backgrounds, I make those myself! I spent far too much money buying licenses and rights to use tons of different patterns and vectors. With those, I love recreating authentic backgrounds in the style of those seen in the 80s and 90s!
I see you draw a lot of Transformation/Chubby/(insert common movie trope here). Are you a fetish artist?
No, I am not a fetish artist. Do I draw art that might be someone’s fetish? Do I take commissions from people with a fetish for this subject matter? Yes, of course. But people need to realize, furry characters alone are a kink to some people. For me the difference is in how it’s drawn. And I personally do not draw my art in a way that sexualizes the piece.
I love drawing transformation scenes, people being swallowed by a monster, extra big tummies, but not because it’s something that I find hot. I just like drawing fun scenes. I get bored of just drawing a character standing in place all the time. I like drawing wacky scenes! 
A lot of my love for these come from cartoons. Edmund getting turned into a cat in Rock a Doodle. Hercules getting swallowed by the hydra. Kaa hypnotizing... everyone xD It’s just a story telling tool and sometimes it’s fun to draw! I’m not into hypno but I do like drawing big, colorful eyes. I’m just whatever about tf but I love drawing the swirling magic effects and the character changing from human to animal. It’s just cool to me!
In short, when I draw these things, it’s like I get to draw scenes from cartoons and movies in my style. It’s so wonderful to attempt to emulate some of the effects and details they used in movies from my childhood. It’s not about the hand changing into a paw for me, it’s the magical sparkles and how it’s so bright and vibrant compared to everything else. Where you see it go from hand to paw, that’s what I love drawing about tf art! Or being able to exaggerate the body and make a character look weighty by making them really round. Getting to draw a comically big mouth, giving a fun and interesting perspective shot. I think that stuff is so neat! Because it’s art!
I don’t care if it is someone’s fetish. I’m not drawing it in a way that’s sexual. Heck, it even says I wont in my TOS! Everything is G-PG here in Sunday’s Playzone! I’m not here to make that kind of content. It’s okay if adults have fetishes, and so long as you and others aren’t sexualizing my art, all is well!

Back to doing Kloktober. Day 12 which is your favorite villain. I know what you're thinking, "I thought you were going to do Magnus." Well, he's my 2nd fave. First place goes to Lavona Succuboso!
I haven't drawn traditionally in so long. But I have a tripod for my iPhone (iPhone SE) so I an start again.
Materials used- Shinhan fineliners, Arteza markers (skin), a Copic marker (100 black), Marvy Uchida Le Plume markers (pictured along with the Copic), and Sakura Jelly Roll pen.
Oh and I followed a tutorial (since I'm shit).

I'm truly so fascinated how you come up with these compositions, also how you are so good at the anatomy and proportions. Would you have any tips for someone on how to improve their drawings, maybe even a demonstration?
I'm a professional art teacher, however I've never made any tutorials. I guess I could give one free demo if people want to contact me in pm and then maybe have a skype session or something? Just once because I'm busy, sorry. 😅
The way I learned was years and years of practice, but the first thing I tell my students is to start tracing just to make things easier and stop being afraid of failure, whether they use tracing paper for traditional art, or layers in photoshop for digital art.
You find what you want to copy and trace it. Of course, there's the problem of finding the right angle of the character you want to draw, the right pose. So you either google the pose/clothes/background/expressions you want ("man sitting on couch", "holding hands", "men in suits" etc), take screenshots from the movie/TV show, or you have your friends model for you, and you take many many pics of them. You either print the photos or draw by looking at the screen (if you want to do free hand instead of tracing).
The hardest part is how to attach e.g. Valery's face on the bodies of your reference pics. That is learned only through trial and error, so don't be afraid to try and fail and throw away tons of paper. What I do is print out every single face/angle I think might be useful to me, so what you see in my art is a composite human figure, taking the expression from one picture, the hand movement from another, the hair from a third one etc.
I don't do tracing for my own art, I do free hand, but you can try either method and see what suits you.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As you can see here, I changed Valery's head many times to the point that I had to erase it entirely because not only did it not look like him but also it was too small compared to Boris'. What a huge pain in the a$$.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then on to the inks.
Tumblr media
I use kurecolor or copic markers, as many shades of gray as I can get my hands on - so much easier than messy watercolours and acrylics (which I adore but yeah, messy - also not handy if you want to draw during a flight).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
One useful tip is to take your distance from the drawing as many times as you can. While you draw you may think it looks right but once you get up, it doesn't. So make sure to take a few steps back and look at it from a distance while you work on it, that way you will notice easier any flaws or things you want to change.
Another tip for getting it right is looking at the art through a mirror (hey, Da Vinci did it so why not you). If not through a mirror, just take a picture of your WIP and reverse/mirror it on your phone. You'll notice any imperfections right away.
