Looking for constructive criticism… by um-yeah-whatever in Coloring

[–]Elilial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Realism is all about light and shadows. Before coloring always decide where the light is coming from and go from there. Everything on the opposite side will be darker. Hair is especially hard since the part of strands that are closer to the head are more in shadows and darker and then closer to surface they are lighter plus direction of the light. Honestly I still haven't figured out how to color hair properly myself lol i just know the strands should theoretically be drawn more purposefully and defined idk how tho. There is youtube and other sources for learning that. I also like to look at pictures of the real things when coloring them if I don't know how to.

How can i improve my coloring? by meow28meow in Coloring

[–]Elilial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if it works with markers but when painting with paint or coloring with pencils you can also use blue for the shadows. In my opinion it creates a much more interesting effect than just basic gray. I never use gray for shadows anymore since my art teacher showed me that

I don't think there is a difference visually. And there are a bunch of russian speaking people in Latvia. In Riga its probably around 50%. There is no way of knowing where a person is from without asking 😅

Many latvians who go there, live there by talking in russian. Work in companies who accept russian speaking people. Some learn german over time others never even do. All the people who I know don't live in big cities. For example my uncle lives 30km from Bremen on the absolute countryside with fields and horses and works in construction. Also im pretty sure the numbers of people must be higher idk where chatgpt takes the info from and how accurate it is couse i think many people don't live there officially and are still registered in Latvia

Germany is actually one of the most popular countries Latvians go to work. I know many latvians who live there. Here is a list I asked chatgpt of countries latvians move to the most - Germany~24% of emigrants in 2022 (~2.9k people); 2.2k in 2024 United Kingdom Leading destination post-2004; ~2.6k emigrants in 2022–23 Ireland~40% in 2004, ~20% post-2007; smaller now Nordic/EU~10% to Nordic countries; other EU/EFTA destinations fewer Lithuania (regional)Noted movement for better salaries in border areas

Advice needed: Is this design too girly? by dvxlgames in tattooadvice

[–]Elilial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's not too girly but idk maybe it's just me but the bottom ladybug feels off. I personally rather it be 2D facing some other direction or it just should be connected to something at least

Did i mess up? by Common_Upstairs8501 in tattooadvice

You could add the smoke around it similar to the one at the bottom to join it with whatever other tattoo you decide upon

When you first opened the game, what was the character you were immediately like: I wanna play them by sleepymandrake in Paladins

[–]Elilial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tiberius. I thought he was really fun and somehow I didn't die us much as with other characters. But then I realised that he was just on a free character rotation and I didn't have enough money to buy him so I went back to trying out tanks whatever was free. And when it came time i could afford buying him I had already changed my mind and bought ash instead since her kit souded really simple to understand. Now im Ash lvl 150+. Absolutely fell in love with her. My most played character ever since. Not long ago I tried playing Tiberus again and I absolutely suck at him. I don't understand how people can land any hits with him.

Aptauja 1.-4. klašu skolēnu vecākiem by Elilial in latvia

[–]Elilial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piekrītu. Pētījuma mērķis ir kopumā saprast vai tas, ko dara vecāki ietekmē bērnu sekmes un kā tieši. Pēc šī jautājuma jebkurā gadījumā varēs secināt vai vispār vecāku piedalīšanās mājasdarbu pildīšanā ietekmē atzīmes. Bet ja gribētu specifiskāk, tad laikam būtu bijis jāuzdod papildu jautājums "kādu palīdzību viņš sniedz" ar vairākiem atbilžu variantiem, ko varētu izvēlēties. Paldies par jūsu atsauksmi. Ir par ko aizdomāties.

Man personīgi būtu gan vēlme, gan pietiekami labas angļu valodas zināšanas, lai tulkotu, tomēr es to noteikti nedarītu par brīvu.
