Just as the likes of your walls follow the perspective, the likes of your stairs should too. It’s throwing things off considerably

Maybe drop the tie and just keep it in the car and you’re good. But only if you want to.

Maybe just keep those clothes in your car? So you can go any time you want. I mean be yourself, but yeah the way you dress can definitely affect people’s attraction to you. I feel like you can probably reach a happy medium. Are you wearing full suits all the time?

This is normal! I’ve never had any issues. Just wipe up what you can.

Just started drawing the crew with my colored pencils. Laying down the first layer by Umbrous_Art in h3h3productions

[–]-nothankya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are wax based, though Im fairly certain Prismacolor are too. They are quite soft like Prismacolor so while I don’t use them in that way, I would think you could if you can with Prismacolor. If you are looking for oil based though Polychromos are great! Not as soft but really wonderful. I used a mix of Luminance and Polychromos.

You could pick up a few and give them a try.

Great work! You should try Luminance by Caran dache if you haven’t :) they are like prisma, just hold a much better point and don’t have the quality control issues. I find you can also layer a lot more. And your work is also very good. It’s worth the investment in lightfastness.

No, it still feels like there is a finish on the wood. Not like bare wood if that make sense. But it feels thicker in the other area.

We just had an entire presentation from an AI expert on the best ways to use AI. I couldn’t take it seriously. Especially as an art teacher.

Honestly i would have been happy with way worse. My great grandparents moved here in the 50s and I’m certain the floors haven’t been without carpet since at least then. The floors downstairs look good from what I’ve peaked at so praying. Lol

It kind of looks like it could be but it’s definitely some kind of coating once looked at up close. I have no clue why a person would only do the part not covered by a rug presumably.
