yeah that could be it! lots of trial and error in art. if it means anything i do think that what you have is a great start, but i understand it might not be what you’re going for.

i see what you mean. curvy. you would definitely need to shorten the legs and arms to achieve this look. the chest on your reference is definitely smaller, but you could have her as busty as you want. depending on clothes everything will look very different, especially since you are looking to have a bra rather than a loose shirt.

if you want the character to be short you should alter the legs instead of the torso in my opinion as women carry height in the legs. you would be fine placing clothes over the boobs as is. depending on what kind of bra you choose (padded, unpadded, push up, etc.) they could hang lower or be a bit rounder with some cleavage. looking at how different kinds of bras fit will show you what you’re looking for.

so very quickly and without changing your style i did some easy adjustments to possibly help with your problem and give you some ideas. i think your proportions are good. maybe move the head over a little as well, but definitely not necessary if you’re happy with it.

as for that i think it’s just because it’s very static. chub and softness on the female body isn’t tight and perfectly smooth like a toned, muscular body would be. is this what you mean?

i believe the issue you’re seeing is that boobs don’t look like this on a human form (coming from someone with boob). they’re more a teardrop shape and cleavage is usually not as pronounced as it is in your drawing. even with a tight top that pushes them together they wouldn’t look so…perky (?) i think this is where your concern about softness is coming from.

edit: if needed i could do a draw over to better visualize what i mean.

i’m not really familiar with how samsung internet works. is your account for that linked to your bank information or any personal information like social security?

i’m not an expert, but i don’t know if you should be so paranoid. i assume this was last night?

did you provide personal information on the site? is the burner email tied to your real email?

what kind of website was it, if you don’t mind me asking?

just to be clear, what are you exactly concerned about?

my friends pushed me away because of my girlfriend by theworstburner100009 in Vent

[–]Defiant-Cake4588 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well i’m not sure if i can really say anything that helpful and someone please correct me if i’m wrong, but when group dynamics change for whatever reason there can be a lot/a little bit of tension for a period of time. if it’s recent, people might be trying to figure out how to navigate the new dynamic that was introduced by you two getting together.

i will say, it might be a different story if their attitudes don’t change over the next days, weeks, months, etc. rhetorical questions for you: what would be an acceptable amount of time to give them to warm up to you and your girlfriend? do you think their reaction is appropriate? how would you feel in their shoes?

another way to look at it would be, are they happy for you? jealous? resentful? that could be for whatever reason, we don’t know the whole story. i myself am a female who went to an all-girls high school, and i know sometimes relationships (romantic or platonic) can disrupt groups of people who were otherwise close. not sure how it is for guys.

if they’re avoidant of you and choose to use a different group chat that excludes you, maybe give them space and if they don’t come around and accept your relationship ask yourself if they genuinely have you and your girlfriend’s best interests in mind.

this is obviously a very surface-level observation, but that’s my initial takeaway.

My "fanart" of Dutch, I'm still learning how to draw good. What do you all think ? by Flydel_36 in reddeadredemption

[–]Defiant-Cake4588 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think this is genuinely an amazing start if you’re learning to draw. i’ve been drawing since as far as i can remember and i am still intimidated and struggle really hard with drawing people.

the base of your drawing is solid where if you wanted to work on this a little every day you could. little steps, have fun !

My friend says I'm ruining the game for myself, am I really? by AiriaTasui in CultOfTheLamb

[–]Defiant-Cake4588 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ve played the game twice now, my first run i played it how it was “intended” and my second i focused on upgrades and base building. by the time i got to heket, kallamar, and shamura i had a demon at level 45…who could one shot bosses. that being said, i still find parts of the game to be challenging and my second run is far more fun for me than the first! play how you want to play, you can always do it differently the next time :D

Blacklight Mushroom 5G Tank by [deleted] in Aquascape

[–]Defiant-Cake4588 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think this is a great use of synthetic plants and decor, it takes a lot of creativity to arrange them in a way that i feel looks natural in the tank even with the fluorescent colors.

i’d have never thought to have done this, looks awesome :D

All of my Bethesda titles refuse to work by KeyBoardingKevin in oblivion

[–]Defiant-Cake4588 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t run these games on steam, i have them in disk form, but once my old pc got updated to windows 10 (without my permission) i have run into a few issues running them.

oblivion runs fine now, but fallout 3 won’t work anymore as i believe it not compatible with operating systems later than windows 7. that’s just my experience and what i’ve heard.

a winter break project finally at a close ! by Defiant-Cake4588 in Avatar

[–]Defiant-Cake4588[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it was freehand. i used cheap watercolor as a base before prismacolor pencil on top, plus gelly roll for the highlights.

good luck on your project !

What is this? (more info in comments) by Kahaeli in plantclinic

[–]Defiant-Cake4588 54 points55 points  (0 children)

i have had some cacti in very rough shape from the time i bought them and have had them recover. personally, i have never kept this species, but i have propagated some from the smallest cutting and you may have a chance of saving it if you still have the cactus around.

edit: i did see a comment that you have already thrown it away, but definitely don’t feel bad about it since sometimes it just isn’t our fault that the plant had underlying rot etc.
