I have colour coded my canvas sizes:

💚 Green = All the time

💛 Yellow = Sometimes

❤️ Red = Almost never

Blank = Never used

My size does fluctuate because I like making everything as tight as possible but this is a general look. If I do decide to animate I'm forced to do 1:1 because I don't have the paid stuff.

I often draw like the example on the left. Minimum shading with filters depending on the piece.

Though I do enjoy shading like the example on the right so whilst it'll take a little longer it's not like I'm making myself miserable to get extra points.

And does having filters change your points in anyway or does it not matter?

I make a bunch of MLP oc's and often see them as specific skin colours.

But I always viewd this one OC (the Child) as purposely disturbing and scary so always imagined her as having greyed out skin but realised that could definitely come off the wrong way (people thinking I'm white washing)

So thought to ask you guys if i should keep a more realistic skin or if the greyed out version is fine given context or just completely a no go

Keep in mind the character could be made potentially more greyed out since I didn't have her whole colour pallet to visualise it with

​

I've done at least two versions but apart from the shoes it just looks really ugly especially when compared to the last images jewellery.

Am I being harsh on myself or is the jewellery actually bad 😔 and if so how can I improve it?

I do not plan to break this rule or encourage others to break this rule but apart from just respecting the spirit of the game is there any reason to follow this rule?

Obviously it's a valid rule but if you make a sketch/plan beforehand how can mods/other people tell you did that? Unless you decide to post about it.

Is there some sort of system that can tell what day you made the art when you're uploading it or something along those lines?

Saw art with beautiful curly hair today and got even more proof this hair sucks so maybe a brush will help r I'll have to lock in

I'm remaking my protagonist's skin.

For one of them I got the idea of having a skeleton trapped in slime only having this skin because he teaches kids with the help of minecraft.

But!

The problem is he's a Chemistry teacher so being a skeleton makes no real sense unless I somehow sneak in the unimportant lore he shares a classroom.

Wgat do you guys think? Is explaining the skin even important?

Was making a piece and saw the brush Impasto Brush - Flat.

I thought I accidentally watched an ad but nope 100% free. It's basically a highlighter but I've got to find a way to use this in a piece!
