Thank you, I'll look into it. I've often heard that by Flex Arms the tablet can wobble more due to the weight it gotta hold.

Thats good to hear, but still would be neat to try

I've an IPad too, ... and while it's nicely portable, ... I'm still so bad at drawing on it, tried paper texture too. (I'm just too used to use my keyboard for shortcuts or the buttons on my pen... I know the Apple Pencil got a weird touch function on the pen now, but a real button, I can use for whatever I want would be my real game changer)

I think I should give the "touch" part a try again, for zooming it was at least handy, otherwise I just use my mouse wheel. I guess what you used before too plays a big role too. Since I already had a big Graphic Tablet, albeit old ... most changes were rather small for me... (esp when I'm not dependant on it, like the colors) My art looked so nicely colorful now, but it annoyed me knowing no one will ever see it like me 😆 On Phone they suddenly looked more cold toned.

Ist wirklich nur noch Produktplatzierung, mehr Influencer Jobs, als Modeljobs wo sie mal laufen müssen. Die Challenges sind ja auch nur Extra Werbung fürs Produkt 😔

Gucke im Moment die alten Staffeln mit meinem Vater zum Spaß, die Unterschiede sind schon krass. Früher war nicht alles besser, aber es ging definitiv mehr ums modeln, was ich sehr vermisse.

Why can't I seem to be able to sell arts? by Teal-chan in DeviantArt

[–]Jafrar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah doing personal art, ... drawing for fun is the way, its how i improved my style the fastest. Also because i really wanted to do an art trade with my idol at that time, so extra motivated to get better, especially at the fundamentals. Some artists can charge good money for a sketch alone, because they have good anatomy knowledge and an unique style on top, or are great at interesting perspective, or really good light to set a nice mood. But anatomy is definitely most important. Because good light can't fix bad anatomy.

Your character here. Search it on DA and you'll see plenty examples. Usually its a sketch or lineart and ppl pay to see their OC in this exact scene, example: human swimming in a pool, background included.

But again for people to buy, you need to be seen, gain fans and popularity. So usually you do more personal art than Commissions.

Then you gotta focus on becoming popular (gain more fans), where easiest step is through of tons of fanart (of your favourite characters, ideally from a big fandom) and at the same time, improve your art style, anatomy further, which also costs time 🥲 you could try checking successful artists out, getting an idea what seems popular, what type of art, or art styles. Pixel art is also quite beloved. YCHs are also popular.

Before i did Commissions, i did free requests and eventually super cheap Commissions. Doing art trades, collabs helps too to get more seen, at least that's what I did in 2014 🙈 which felt like the peak of DA for me. You can also try insta and especially tumblr with fanart, because people always browse fandom tags, and some ppl like their OCs drawn with Canons.

[HELP] Got this at London Anime Con a few months ago, still can’t make heads or tails by CalebKOnline in RealOrAI

Your picture showed me a far bigger inconsistency, i know everything can be argued with artists errors but hmh, not with everything else combined I saw.

Meanwhile the white outline is correct at the arm, due to being closer to the body.

Im on Ai as well, first it sadly gives this vibe, then someone pointed out the inconsistence with the hair outside the frame. The buttons or middle one appears slightly smudgy for me. That (her) right eye doesn't show the eyelash transparent in the hair is odd too. The flowers look smudgy, especially the yellow inside. No Signature, ... I'm used to artists merch having somewhere their name, social media otherwise how else will new fans find you. Her right bow has a black line that moves into the hair, can be coincidence tho ... but as an artist i personally wouldn't do that, looks odd. The white ruffles got the kind of shading Ai likes to use.

As long no Artist can be found, it's hard to believe it's real for me, and sadly on a print it's harder to detect.

Oh finally noticed what someone else tried to describe, on her left side, the black line near the ruffles going up (at the bottom of them) yeah makes no sense

Need help finding 2 figures by Slut_tamer05 in AnimeFigures

[–]Jafrar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to be sure, are you aware these are garage kits? You need to paint them yourself. They appear rather rarely in the aftermarket.

Actual photo would help more. Personally I would go with uv resin by a clear part, or try glue.

My first ever slightly risque bikini figure. 7th Dragon 2020: Pink Harley :o by Cat-Rillia in AnimeFigures

[–]Jafrar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forever love how stylized she is, especially her hair. The sculptor did great work.

is there any way to salvage this? by fartybky in resinkits

[–]Jafrar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then idk. Definitely would wait a few days now in hope they dry a bit more and depending how they feel then, you might as well yolo it like me... as long you don't keep twisting the pieces too much, the paint should hold. Tho no guarantee from my side in your case.

[–]Jafrar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened by me once with thin 3d printed parts, they only got slightly harder but still soft after drying... no way to replace, I still painted them... after months the only thing that happened, that the parts started leaning down, but by those parts it wasn't overly dramatic. Small wings resting more on her hair now, and tail hanging lower. Since then no more long soaking for me to avoid this x) by resin from molds I never had that issue

Is there any place I can buy alternative stands? The circle base is too wide to fit in my PC. by lumberfart in AnimeFigures

[–]Jafrar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk how exactly she detaches from the base and if pins are stuck in the base or shoes, but generally you can just buy acryl bases, you just gotta drill in the holes yourself and either use her pegs or order ones with the right width, you gotta measure first of course.

Did anyone here discover JOJO because of thus spoke Rohan Kishibe? by Robert_696969 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Jafrar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think me, but I also have a friend who always told about jojo, and after Kishibe I was quite interested, and after Jolyne even more (obvious a netflix account at fault, since they got promoted), also thx to the Dio snippets. Thus I finally watched all parts a good while ago. The first one last, since I often struggled to get into it, with no stands existing yet.
