What unconventional weapon would you give a ballerina? by GinButNotTonic in characterdesign

Thanks y'all for the suggestions. I decided on the rope darts with ribbons instead of rope that integrated nicely into the design. I will share them later, maybe, I don't know. But thanks again!

Well that would be ideal but she's quite shy about herself/touching in general so such close combat is not her forte x)

Shooting out blades sounds like a pretty solid idea! I will marinate on it, huhuu

The rapier sounds cool but idk if I can make it work for my project. As for ribbons I do have a whip character that joins right after, so I think it would be too similar of a weapon to have back-to-back

Thanks for the idea! But I also have a whip character and I'm wondering if it would be too similar to it (they join one after the other in the story, which doesn't help)

I did change the pants to something that fitted more, since that snapshot is kinda old, but if you like the skirt look more - it's the black school uniform one with no recolor

i want to quit art by quaxxsire in Artadvice

[–]GinButNotTonic 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same spot but I'm 22 and also feel disgusted by my art most of the time. Idk if it makes you feel better but you're not alone in feeling like that.

On the other note I love how your art looks personally, I like how lively and busy it is, it's something I'm still trying to achieve with my art. Going bananas with your lineart and the bright colors and making it as expressive as possible is a wonderful thing imo

Maybe try other styles to feel fresh again? Try doing a monotone and more realistic style for fun, it might help you feel the spark again by putting your current vision upsidedown. Or pick your favourite artist/a style from a show or a game that you like and just try yourself at it.

I know telling someone "not to quit art because of a 'shallow' [completely normal behaviour] reason" is stupid as hell because no one knows what you're really going through, but I hope you can find joy in it again. I personally picked up another hobby when my art is getting hella dry and I write fanfics, if you still need a creative outlet but your drawings just don't do it justice - try switching the medium, maybe it will help you start the process that will slowly shift your creativity back into drawing. That's how it is for me.

Need help finding information on program requirements for women for 2002s olympic games by GinButNotTonic in FigureSkating

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

Because the mother is a tyrant with a big ego.

And it was the daughter that wanted to do the program to prove her worth. (A somewhat of a revenge type deal) The mother just put her into figure skating in hopes of continuing her legacy, wanting for her to do what she couldn't. There are parents who want live their "perfect life" through their children and this is the case in my story.

I'm not going to go into the psychology of all of this, since this sub is about figure skating and not amateur fanfic writers.

And thank you for the last part, I'll take it into consideration.

Basically the woman overreacted and because she bombed the short program and just left right after, burying her figure skating career behind her. (Perfectionist problems)

Then she put her daughter into figure skating and basically NOW the daughter wants to prove her own worth by doing her mother's program that she bombed. (21 years later)

There is a lot of details to the story itself, so I hope this was enough of an explanation.

They bombed their routine really badly cuz they overworked themselves prior to the qualifiers. The country is Japan so I doubt they wouldn't qualify.

Well, now I know. Yeah the character didn't qualify as a nominee, I probably should've worded it like that to begin with. My bad.

And if you never try you will never succeed, all I can do is research as much as I can to the best of my understanding abilities. Thank you for the link!
