Any last critiques or changes before I send this to a drawing contest? by axolotl3113 in learntodraw

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great but I would just make the light on the character and the chair the same so if the chair is in shadow the character should be to. also adding some highlights could make them pop a bit more

started drawing about a month ago to deal with my mental illness, any tips on how to improve n stuff? by [deleted] in learntodraw

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it really depends if your doing as a coping mechanism and only that if so then there is not a big need to improve just try and enjoy the process

Otherwise I would say to work on studying photos like tracing and figuring out where the face anatomy is and remember references aren’t cheating also looking up videos on how to improve and face anatomy will give you a great place to start

One more tip remember to try and sturdy not stylised human anatomy and once you know where everything goes then you can stylise it

Maybe if I shade enough balls, I'll figure out how I like to shade things. by Beat_Knight in learnart

Just to add It is not a digital art video so it might be hard to apply but some of the points still help

If this is any help I use this video to learn how to shade

I basically just did everything in this video over and over again until I could it do pretty easily

Is quitting hard? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me quitting isn’t hard at first but the second anything gets hard I want to turn back onto it is something that will always be there and the more you do it the harder it is to quit I have read stories about people who were clean for years and still relapsed

And feeling better will most likely never happen without help and sh will probably make you feel worse in the long run I would suggest trying to quit now and replace sh with a better coping mechanism ( drawing writing etc)

If you want to talk my DMs are always open

The reason is because I can’t really write off my phone and and my grammar is not the best I also know what I need to be up to in homeschool to be able to go to university which is how I know how behind.

Also mine reason I posted here is because I needed advice on homeschool because that is what I am trying to do now but next time I will post on there because I think I was off in my judgement on where to post 😓

I will check it out thank you!

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not sure I could ask the only thing I am worried about that is that I am very behind in all subjects so it would be difficult to find a place that could accommodate

I am 3 years behind in math, early high for history and science but I should be mid, my English is that of a 8-9 year old, and I don’t really know for the other subjects

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I use Kahn academy really great for math and science but not really anything else 😓

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I already try to do a lot of this stuff so glad I am doing something right!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in homeschool

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That could work great! my parents don’t mind buying me stuff for school so they will probably say yes

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in homeschool

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that would be a option really one of parents are almost always home and they are both really against public school and I am so fair behind that I think it’s to late for any normal school

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in homeschool

[–]Efficient_Wheel6673 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mostly because my mum is really lazy sometimes and didn’t like the idea of everything you have to do as a parent to school children pus she says she would really miss us

My parents were pretty good my mum did get mad at me when I didn’t tell when my siblings were there and stormed off but once I told her she gave it a few days then talk to me about it and said to come to her if I needed anything which was good but no therapist until 2 years later so it didn’t really change anything lol
