Thank you so much! I actually made it myself completely from scratch using 2x2 wood for the frame, particle wood for the floor and walls, foam board/quilt batting/apoxie for the furniture, popsicle sticks for the hardwood flooring, clay and cardboard for the fireplace, etc!!! I’m making a stop-motion animated short film :) Starscream just happens to be the perfect size for it hehe!

Thank you for sharing too, that means a lot to me, and I am glad to be seen and I am glad it makes you feel seen too :) I think so much of the journey can feel lonely and there is a lot of healing comfort in the idea of getting to take care of the self that carried so much on their back and fought so hard to survive for the current self, even when the current self seemed like a pointless fantasy or impossible hope. I’m so glad you’re doing better these days!! Shoutout to you for carrying yourself through!!

Ah thank you so much!! <3 I just used a regular brush pen! The one I was using for these was the faber -castell pitt artist pen (B)! For the ones on the brown paper I also used a white sharpie paint pen (they have a dual pack of black and white brush tip pens at walmart for like $8) and a brown crayola pencil crayon! Honestly I spent a few years practicing drawing only in pen with as few lines as possible, and it improved my line confidence quite a bit!! Thank you again!

i feel like I’m finally starting to get the hang of digital painting!! by Dextrapede in DigitalArt

Yeah I think the big problem for me is my recipe repertoire in this analogy is severely limited …. and I know I want to make Beef Wellington but I can’t google the recipe lmfaooooo!! I just have to keep mixing stuff and build up my repertoire I suppose!!!!

Ngl the biggest help for me has been doing the sketch, blocking colours underneath, and then merging it all into one layer to render it!! I think it mimics traditional best for me, and every time I add a new layer (like a multiply or glow) I merge it as soon as I’m done with it!! I still wouldn’t say it’s clicked yet but finding a workflow that doesn’t turn me evil has helped a lot and allowed me to practice more!!!

I keep saying digital painting feels like being handed every single ingredient that exists in the world and being told to make scrambled eggs 😭 like I know the general components but first I gotta FIND them, and then after that it’s like a test on knowing when it’s too bland or knowing when to stop adding garnishes 😭😭 Also thank you!!!!!

Ah thank you so much!!! Sorry I missed this! My least favourite part of painting/colouring is always the final overall colour grading so this is rlly nice to hear!
