i don't know man, i just wish that we could [suddenly realising i'm coming dangerously close to expressing a real and earnest thought instead of filtering everything through several layers of intangible running bits] blow up the entire world. or something.
Can you show a speed paint? I’m not accusing you of ai btw, I just really want to see your art process, I think I can learn a lot from it! It’s very good
I'll try and record one in the future! In the meantime I do have this timelapse from a while ago, but it's a different process from what I normally do. You can see the post editing for colours in effect though.
ty for the tag @rakiah !! 🙇♀️

WHA! Imagine my surprise when I stumbled across your blog and saw the pinned post and I was like "wait, I know those guys." I didn't know you were on here and it looks like I've already reblogged some of your art too! STILL, HERE'S THE TWO ON MY BAG (Azul got gifted to my friend). ALSO THANK YOU for the little art you drew on the back of the coupon code, ough, my heart.
BKGJSHFSD THE LITTLE GUYS!!! omg no thank you, i'm really glad you enjoyed the doodle! makes it all the more worth it (also is that cater in the bg whksf cute;;)
I love your art style, especially how energetic it is! How did your art style get such dynamic lines? Do you have any tips/advice/ideas on how to do that?
Thank you!
Um... I'm not sure how to go about it, but I’ll try and give some tips on line confidence.
I think my main advice would be to not let your sketch box you in- keeping it at a really low opacity so that your eyes don’t get used to seeing it with your line art when you draw over it (having your sketch opacity too high can give a different impression of your line work), leaving room to exaggerate or play around with fresh lines in the next phase.. It’s easier to do when you’re confident in your subject, so the sketch should be stable enough to convey that, but have fun with the process otherwise! For me, good line art comes out when I’m actively finding ways to build off the sketch’s energy while lining it, not when I’m trying to limit myself to it/already 100% happy with what it provides.
Here's a bit of a visualization! When going from the sketch to the line art, I was thinking that I could improve the flow of the cape, so I made the upper part less flat and balanced its curve with the bottom to keep the energy flowing. The slope of Kalim's pose could balance the curve of Jamil's sarouel, so I leaned into that when putting down the lines for Kalim's. Meanwhile having some areas be more linear helps give contrast. Line of action, straights against curves, etc. (I think this is delving more into gestural talk now)
I'd recommend studying artists whose linework you enjoy too! Kaisen_Tobiuo was-and still is- a big inspiration of mine growing up for how expressive their works and line art felt. Also study naruto fanartists they're cracked
It ended up being a bit of a ramble, but I hope this could help op!
Do you think hauntings can go both ways. Like, if a ghost is a dead person who can't move on, what is an alive person who can't let go of someone dead? Grief as a form of haunting. Dragging the memory of a corpse with you because it's all that's left of them. Seeing them out of the corner of your eye sometimes. You know. It pairs nicely with obsession of revenge
do it scared do it stupid do it badly whatever it is that's worth doing, that's worth anything at all, we do it. be it scared be it stupid be it badly. the sincerity remains the same.
