Uhhh, so I have an art trade-ish? gift for Alethryia of her SSSSona c: Gonna post it once my PC stops acting up *wills SAI to please not crash for the love of everything good*

Edit: ACTUALLY KIND OF DECENT COLORS ON MACS I'M CRYING FROM HAPPINESS

Alethryia, here you go! Johanna was lots of fun to draw! (ºvº) Sorry for any inaccuracies in her design T_T



I'm just sad that my copy of PaintTool SAI is awful and won't let me add more textures and stuff to make the painting cooler. And that my PC isn't better. It has issues handling big canvases, forget a 4k x 6k px one.

Really really beautiful! Will you look at this thread pretty please? I'm trying to collect everything we do here on a pinterest board, and your paintings are so good! (This petition goes to the other newcomers as well)

Great job on the poses, so nice and dynamic!
Thank you! Shoves down "I didn't come up with the poses I just copied them"-reflex with the memory of Haiz' absolutely wonderful rant of "there is no cheating in art it's all art" (Thank you Haiz!)

I love the art here!! Unlos, the poses and perspectives are amazing!! (and thank you so much for the colouring tutorial eSPECIALLY THE LAYER CLIPPING THING) + Rollo, for some reason, your art kind of reminds me of Quentin Blake's art style- it's very free and expressive! I love Lúðvík's personality ehehehe ;w;

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial, I was also really happy when I learned about the clipping thing  :)

Yess more parkour (And I've already drawn Ilmari, otherwise he would have been a very likely victim)
In the meantime, Noodly Appendage (and I just had to throw in His Noodlyness):

Pose from Syccas stock (I love internet)

AAAAAAH I FORGOT TO SIGN THE PAINTING OH NOES I REFUSE TO HAVE JERKS RIP OFF MY ART BRB GONNA DO THAT REAL FAST


@Alethryia:


*picks videovance off of the floor* My bad! I knew it sounded weird! "Adorable" isn't really right for paintings... It's 2:30 3 a.m. here ahahahahaaa so brain's complete mush. Anyways, it's very manly! Your OCs are v cool c:

Hehehe, I'm obsessed with drawing hair... all I doodled in high school was people moving/in the wind so that I could practice drawing hair in movement XD

Ah, about that stabbing-my-foot story... Here you go!
Spoiler: show

TW for blood, gore, and related.

[spoiler]It's totally embarrassing how it came about, but basically I was in eighth grade and me and my sibling were have a foot war and I had a plastic bag with my knitting projects lying close by. I thought my foot landed next to a knitting needle, but when I lifted my foot, it was stuck in my sock, so I was like, "Let's try pulling it out--hOLY !*&$(&#^$*&^%^&^*$#!" My sibling started freaking out a little. I thought, no.... no way. It can't possibly have gone through my foot. Then I had my sibling hand me a pair of scissors and I cut open my sock... and voilà, of course it did. Odd thing was, it didn't hurt at all, and I was very matter-of-fact and maybe a little too calm for someone who had a knitting needle stuck in their foot. (At least it was on the thin side?) It was my sibling who started hyperventilating and crying. I called my parents, who were on a walk, and some family friends and their daughters dropped by to give us a gift and found me sitting on my bed with an honest-to-god knitting needle in my foot and my sibling freaking out. The entire ride to the nearest ER facility (like 30 min away because my city is SMALL) everyone but me was spazzing. I got wheeled in and they gave me laughing gas (I was actually laughing, but only 'cause I was nervous about how they were gonna get it out) which was kinda ?? ?? ?? and the doctor said "I'm gonna have to pull it out." That's when I started freaking out. No anesthesia? No numbing agent?? NOTHING?? But I really wanted that knitting needle out so I nodded and giggled nervously and he counted to three and freaking yanked the thing out and holy smokes it effing HURT and there was some blood dripping and my stomach got a little queasy. I was on crutches for three weeks and had a lot of fun freaking out my friends with the X-Rays they took. And that's how the ER people got a memorable story and how I got a knitting needle in (and out of) my foot.

Epilogue: I wasn't thinking when they asked if I wanted to keep the knitting needle and I told them to throw it away and only on the car ride back did I realize that its other half now was useless. Soooo :I And now I keep my knitting projects faaaaar away from my feet.

[/spoiler]


@Unlos: I'll take a look! And get around to finishing my 'sona designs, I'm not 100% sure that I'm satisfied with her mage outfit. And also practice lighting/shading *sobs*

Ahahahaha no I was joking, it's not manly as hell ;w;; I prefer adorable!
Drawing hair movement? Oh, dang, that sounds like a really good idea, actually! I'm gonna try that out 0u0
Spoiler: about the story • show
TW blood + gore
Spoiler: show
OH MAN DUDE THAT SOUNDS REALLY REALLY PAINFUL AAAHHHHGGHHHHH

it went THROUGH your foot??? ouch bro that sounds awful ;A;

Uh, you weren't really gonna use that needle again to knit, were you? (then again that would be a hilarious thing to freak people out with- "hEY GUYS THIS NEEDLE WENT THROUGH MY FOOT ONCE HAHAHAH why are you all screaming")

But the important question: Do you have a totally sick scar that you can use to freak people out? IMPORTANT TO KNOW //slapped

@videovance I totally thought you were joking at first about the "manly art" thing but then I was like "maybe not?...." basically DON'T EVER LET ME STAY UP LATE I AM A GENIUS THEN BUT I AM ALSO INCREDIBLY TIRED AND WILL START NOT MAKING SENSE. AND USE CAPS TOO MUCH
Spoiler: show

HAHAHA! The only times it hurt was when I bumped my foot or the needle during the car ride and when the doctor yanked it out. Kinda weird. I don't think I was shocked, 'cause I was thinking "oh, needle in my foot, let's get it out asap please" and also "hey weird story to tell my friends!" (I've never really had serious health problems or broken bones or sprained anything, hence my strange thought process)

I probably would've kept it and used it again, but at the moment I was making the decision I thought for some reason that it was unusable/the needle couldn't be disinfected. o.0

Aw, I almost wish I had a scar... but no, it healed over really quick. There's almost nothing on my foot that would indicate that I had punctured it. Maybe a weird teeeeeeny mark, but that's about it.

Unlos, that looks incredible! Parkour hype!! I love the pose you used, it's really complex but it looks great! Especially the way you drew the boots and the floofy hair :) Plus, those in-progress photos are super helpful to look at! （ · w · ）

Misea, ahaha it's okay- but you gotta go to sleep, dude. It's like, what, 3am over there? ;A;;;
Spoiler: show
That's actually kind of hilarious that you were so calm like "ah yes, this happened, time to go fix it". I would be like your family, just completely freaking out tbh ahahaha

But no scar?? That's no fun! Battle scars are super fun. Even if they're not from battle ehehehe
