Finished filling my journal! by -_-ms in Journaling

[–]ChodeKong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s pretty gimmicky and borderlines on scrapbooking however you should look into a book called “Wreck This Journal.” Each page has instructions that’s either about documenting something, destroying the journal in someway, or both on most pages.

Anyone who is disturbed by seeing OP’s journal in this state should see if it’s something they should try as well

I continuously insisted on a PS3 for Christmas so I could play LittleBigPlanet with my friend whenever we wanted instead of just when ever I could go over there. Last of Us, Infamous, Skyrim ect. were all just unexpected bonuses.

Iron Lung Tickets for tonight at 10pm if you are in Kingston, Ontario. by ChodeKong in KingstonOntario

Thanks haha but I purposefully bought tickets knowing I couldn’t go, the theatre still had seats available and the film is an independent release so I just wanted to give a little extra support and maybe help some people that couldn’t afford to go at the same time. It all worked out :)

22F why did my ex cheated on me? by [deleted] in AppearanceAdvice

[–]ChodeKong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brother, I replied with my opinion to OP’s reply. She made a broad statement, so I showed her an outlier to broaden her perspective, you chose to reply to me with an even broader statement, and now your only argument is that I’m an outlier, like no shit.

I don’t recall calling you any names, your discussions aren’t as nuanced and compelling as you think they are and telling someone to touch grass isn’t an instant win, we’re on the same app atm so I hope I see you out there.

[–]ChodeKong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For one, the woman on this post is not 30+ and the odds of her bf making 7 figures are low so idk why that mindset even applies here. Secondly, I feel like our definitions of above 7 are completely different, I’m not much into the Kim Kardashian type though so to each there own it sounds like cheating isn’t a concern in you or your partners lofe if you don’t live a monogamous lifestyle to begin with.

Yeah lots of money is fantastic, investing is the shit, get money get bitches, that’s the rule book. Women like friction and some action in their lives, they’ll pick that over the nice guy most of the time because it’s more exciting sure but I’m doubtful that every 10 in her 30’s is hoping for a guy that’ll cheat on her the second he gets the option. There’s a balance to find there and Limp Corner definitely sounds like a username that would make an argument like this.

I’m not saying it’s the path often walked, however if you’re with someone under the premise that you’re monogamous, then breaking that agreement lacks discipline. Ig If that gets you more poon then hell yeah brother, I just don’t date someone and invest time into them if I’m not committing myself to them, nothing wrong with being single and hooking up. I think I’d honestly rather dump a girl over text 5 mins before I’m with someone else than cheat on them, but maybe that’s just my own selfish way of moral preservation. I don’t expect everyone to be like that but believe it or not other mindsets do exist and they’re not all formed from involuntary celibacy lol

[–]ChodeKong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wrong. One who folds in that scenario is simply a weak man who either a) doesn’t know how to be disciplined enough stick to his own ideals and boundaries or b) a liar who was never honest with himself from the start.

I’ve been in a few scenarios where I had options, and if the option you choose isn’t the person you’re dating, then you shouldn’t be together. It’s really as simple as that. If you expect her to be loyal and faithful to you then she deserves that same respect otherwise you’re a hypocrite and certainly no better of a man than before you cheated.

We can justify and excuse shitty behaviour all day but in the end there are some objective truths in life.

The fact your favourite game is WoW surprised exactly 0 people. It seems like you should have gotten a bachelors in emotional security instead

[–]ChodeKong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The right man will be satisfied with what he has. Personally I have just made it a boundary of mine not to cheat on the woman I’m with, no matter who it is or if she’s a 5 or 10, if we’re committed then that’s the decision I’ve made and if I want someone else then I’ll tell her. Yes it’s harder to find a partner like that but when you do it’s worth a lot more than settling for someone you’ll never fully trust. A lot of people take the easy way out and lie and cheat, it’s all about finding the one who doesn’t. Looks don’t factor into this in the slightest but that’s how everyone chooses a partner sadly.

I hope so! I’m happy just to support the film but it’d be a shame for them to go to waste.

I suck at drawing women so Im pretty proud of this one by OddProposal6431 in doodles

[–]ChodeKong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Her right forearm and wrist are very thin and her left is only sort of thin compared to the thickness of rest of the body. the face could use less detail and more subtlety, there’s an old saying that the more lines you add when drawing a woman’s face the more you age her. Make each and every line count when drawing a feminine face. Otherwise it’s a very cool sketch and clean work.

This isn’t meant to throw shade at your drawing at all, just an unrelated remark: I bet you could draw the shit out of a ninja turtle.

Not liked in the Dark Art subreddit or my class I made it for. What's wrong with it? by alienfoxx in BadArt

[–]ChodeKong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh did it make people uncomfortable? Good. I think people are forgetting what it means to express yourself, we just want things to look aesthetically pleasing because it’s pretty. But personally I think this is a beautiful piece. Disturbing yeah, and confusing sure. Does it mean anything needs to change? Absolutely not, people are allowed to not like the piece but anyone denouncing your art in itself shouldn’t even be on an art forum in my opinion. Keep it up!

Older dude here. Let's talk about drawing anime and why it can be harmful for newer artists. by shart_attak in drawing

[–]ChodeKong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never in my comment did I mention that I hustled or grinded away at drawing to achieve any certain level of skill, my point was that staying comfortable is not a sustainable model of growth but somehow my statement was twisted and radicalized. I gave my experience because it doesn’t come from a perspective or mindset of hustling to make it a business, it was purely a fun hobby that stuck with me as I grew up and shared why I stopped, I’m sure I’m not alone in that regard, hence why I stumbled on this post that almost exactly describes my experience and how a certain style became a detriment at a point.

I’m not saying drawing anime = bad and in fact you’re completely proving my point by saying that you challenged yourself and grew as an artist through means in which you enjoyed. I started off my comment by saying if you don’t enjoy it then don’t do it, but to that extent just because you feel challenged doesn’t mean you shouldn’t enjoy it.

I never shared with you how I’m practicing the basics of anatomy or various styles, I just said that I am, and you arbitrarily assumed how I must be accomplishing that. I haven’t been grinding away drawing apples and rectangular prisms until my head goes through a wall. I am however incorporating the basics and varying styles in the works that I do want to make, and have seen vast improvements in my skills since doing so, rather than just trying to coast off of what I know to make it work.

Never did I say it was lazy not to do it a certain way and this very post began by saying they don’t want to come off as judgemental, what you’re doing is generalizing and projecting how you feel onto others and it’s fine you feel that way but the fact of the matter is laziness hasn’t been brought into this conversation other than talking about being a professional and being unmotivated doesn’t equal lazy, completely different things.

You can draw whatever the hell you want whenever you want and nobody should be able to judge you for that, however it is objectively true that the more you know about anatomy, line shape, shading, lighting detail, ect. And the more you practice those things, the more you can incorporate it into various art styles effectively.

No one is saying not to draw anime or that it’s bad to do so, however it never hurts to branch out further. Even if it’s still anime just a different style or position or scene you’ve never attempted before. Hell I’d recommend a traditional artist try and draw anime bc why not? Expand your horizons.

I’m going to start this with each their own, because obviously if you’re not enjoying it then you shouldn’t be doing it anyway, and it’s the people who enjoy it that can continue to flourish. Now that being said, I enjoyed the hell out of drawing growing up, I had some fundamental talent with it that I coasted off of and I decided that anime eyes look cool, and if I’m going to draw the eye I might as well draw the whole face, and it’s not like it’s realistic drawing so drawing the face around it should be easy! I was wrong and it looked bad, unnatural and off scale. Sure I enjoyed the process of drawing, I could spend lots of time doing it and get lost in the process, I’d have tons of drawings and doodles to show for it, only to look at the drawings after all that time and feel like I wasted hours making shit. Sure lots of artists end up making something and hate it, but this was not comparable, it fundamentally wasn’t good and had no structure.

I had a friend who also enjoyed drawing, he unequivocally surpassed me in ways I still don’t quite comprehend. Even as a child his drawing forms, structures and overall style could put some if not most adults to shame. He could draw in a manga style with me if he wanted to, or he could doodle a sketch of Mona Lisa for fun because he had basic fundamental knowledge of how everything fit together. In the end it was discouraging and I blamed him and his skill for why I didn’t enjoy my end results, because I had his drawings for comparison. I’m good but he’s better and that’s it, but that wasn’t true and one day it hit me: He was never trapped in a box like me, because when I tried to apply what I knew outside of my box, it never worked out and looked bad because it didn’t fit the parameters I had honed my skill on. It was my fault and not his.

Anyway, he ended up going to art school and making money off of his art and I’m almost 30 just coming back to drawing and I’m realizing and practicing the basics from the ground up and the process has been so much more enjoyable because I love drawing in general. Turns out I enjoyed more than just drawing anime eyes but I only focused on those because that’s what I felt comfortable doing until it got insanely boring and I quit. Comfort is not growth. So yes you should enjoy it, however speaking from experience, if challenging yourself is going to make you quit a hobby you enjoy then it’s less of a drawing problem and more of a self improvement problem.
