updated my island flag! this was way harder than it looks. i did upload that first photograph onto acpatterns but it defintely needed tweaking and i also had already planned to edit out those even blurrier flowers in the background, so i ended up editing a lot and changing the color palette a little bit too. i used the other photograph as a reference as well. believe it or not the stem was the hardest part, because there wasnt a lot of room to add a stem that looked appealing by the way it was shaped and then there wasnt a lot of room to shade the stem cuz its thin obviously and working with pixels on acnh can be a little limiting in that you have to use certain shades and certain patterns in order to create smooth shading that doesnt look pixilated. i’m proud of myself for my first real try at custom designing. (i wont count the designs i made as a child or the simple quick stuff ive thrown together as an adult, although any practice is better than none when it comes to custom designs on animal crossing)
also, as ive spoken about several times on this blog, ive recently started allowing myself to draw again after i stopped drawing for like ten years (other than a couple other attempts) and it’s such a relief to be able to get into a flow with drawing for the first time since i was a teenager. i enjoyed the process, and i also am happy with the outcome so that’s a nice bonus.
oh also apparently to save a QR code from acpatterns you dont get to name it? or at least i cant find a way to other than to submit my design or whatever so thats why the image says by unknown from unknown lol

Free pattern, but I'm not just giving them away, I'm encouraging you to take one. Here's a couple more for you friends. I tuck one in your back pocket when you turn to leave.

I also got a pair of normal regular shoes in the same style and size for when the custom ones won't vibe with what I'm wearing, but here we go, the official debut of the Shoes™
I'm incredibly happy, they look great IRL and they're so comfy and Teenager!Me would be so envious that Modern!Me got not only a pair of Converse shoes to customize, but a second pair to just have. I'm not kidding when I say I wanted Converse shoes so bad as a kid, this is so worth the wait and time to develop my art skills a bit more because young me would have probably drawn swirly scribbles that looked good but not very coherent. 😍
