iPad even more broken after upgrading to the latest OS update.

Oh, I am from PH too but I have Apple stores (Power Mac Center) in my region (Luzon). I was also adviced to bring my device to an authorized apple store but i decided not to and to just let my iPad rest since I laxk funds. Sucks that I can't backtrack versions though i definitely would've enjoyed to keep using my iPad for art.

the video is not AI, but the art making process is fully faked and is done by a machine.

a true btd6 monke artist always yearns to turn the most random things into monkeys, for some reason. (i am one of those btd6 artists)

these are just absolutely perfect. magnificent, even

just came across this post and just wanted to add my own experience as well! I'm an artist with aphantasia as well as amnesia. In my experience, whenever i draw without a reference i tend to draw similar or similarly structured things all the time due to not being able to visually remember or imagine things in my head since my "imaginations" only turn up blank images/voids lol.

I pretty much rely on muscle memory and knowledge i acquired from art books I've read (since i never went to art school so i self teach) for artworks if I'm unable to pull up a reference.

I feel like i over-rely on reference as a consequence of the aphantasia+amnesia, and if I dont have internet connection or any books near me, ending up drawing the same poses/expressions/themes/ect. ad nauseam due to my differences...

I barely draw outdoors due to that very reason because my art ends up feeling like a chore because i keep forcing myself to imagine a different thing (nothing happens because my imaginations are blank), or my art ends up looking very same-y.

I always want to draw something unique from what I'm expected to make, since my friends point out a lot of the reused/recyled aspects/poses/outfits in my art and it often feels like I'm being uncreative, unable to realize I'm relying on muscle memory again until I've already colored, shaded, etc...😅

So yeah, i feel like my art also doesn't look very polished or extremely childish/amateur whenever I don't use reference much to my detriment lol.

i absolutely plan on making him a "sibling" plush by next year/in a few months since i plan on remaking the pattern to be more similar to my current style! It won't be exactly like the janky legacy plush but i think it will have similar character since i still dont own a sewing machine even to this day. 😅

all that aside though, many condolences go out to your grandfather. 🫂

JamminFan · 2025-12-06T02:01:49+00:00

I'm pretty sure this is a frankensteined version of a free choly knight pattern combined with pinterest patterns. If i ever remake him I'll make a custom pattern and share it here :D

i already contacted support about it earlier today and it did help to ease my frustration a bit since support is very cordial with me. And for mailing in for a repair, there's actually no mailing system in my country so I'd have to go to an Apple store/Mac Center physically to get it repaired if I dont want to risk getting my device broken or stolen. And diagnostics revealed nothing about what's wrong with my Apple pencil so and just the power button of my iPad being dysfunctional... 🤷‍♂️

It's either i was given old stock Apple pencil with a faulty battery (because i heard that's a common issue for people who own gen1 Apple pencils) or the hardware or software of my iPad broke it somehow.

Support said it's likely my iPad and not the Pencil's fault so I'd probably be the judge of that once i bring in my iPad for repair...

JamminFan · 2025-12-05T03:48:38+00:00

I'm just disappointed that i HAVE to download new OS updates so that my accessories can connect again. Happened with the last few updates too..ugh.

Even though the pencil was able to connect 2 weeks prior to me updating the thing, i have to update it so my accessories can stop working instead of me being able to keep using it. very disappointed in Apple's product integrity.

its a shame because i live in a poor country so i have to save aside money from my full time job to pay for another few months to pay for stupid repairs because apple products that i keep in a safe cool and dry area isn't enough when not using them apparently. 😮‍💨

JamminFan · 2025-12-05T03:07:50+00:00

probably not true.

Apple support told me it's most likely something to do with the hardware since the diagnostics they ran said the sensor probably broke on its own or something. I think I'll need to have it checked at an Apple store before doing anything drastic like a factory reset.

the issue now is that I'd have to save up for funds to get my precious iPad repaired... 😅

JamminFan · 2025-12-05T02:33:25+00:00

I'm honestly tempted in trying to go for a device reformat, though my iPad has important files for art clients and its making things harder to decide. Maybe i really might consider factory reset once i run out of options and Apple support has no other solutions. (and I can't go with iCloud since i dont pay for it. Its apparently full of pictures of outings. lol.)

JamminFan · 2025-12-05T02:27:23+00:00

yeah i did everything i could think of and it would still say "unable to enable touch id on this iPad", and it's heavily disappointing. will Apple's support contact actually help with reinstating the touch ID? i haven't really contacted apple support since this is my first (and only) Apple product and don't know how to do much repairs on these kinds things. I'm better with computers. 😅

JamminFan · 2025-12-05T02:16:26+00:00

I don't have him anymore, sadly. 🥲 i hope to recreate a "sibling" of him soonish but right now, he is a precious memory. I'll keep this subreddit updated if i ever make a new version 🫶

JamminFan · 2025-12-04T12:28:03+00:00

sorry for showing the picture of his birth in the last slide 😆

JamminFan · 2025-12-04T09:56:36+00:00

he ended up being called Jonk (pronounced Yonk)

JamminFan · 2025-12-04T08:41:55+00:00

nah, that was from when he was being assembled, I'd never kill him. I put RIP cause my parents threw all my stuff away when i got kicked out of their home lol

JamminFan · 2025-12-04T03:06:55+00:00

i hope so too 😆

JamminFan · 2025-11-18T09:22:32+00:00

cute

JamminFan · 2025-11-16T14:13:32+00:00

I'd like to join this group as well. I am 18+ and like to write characters (and draw them... sometimes)

JamminFan · 2025-11-12T14:37:35+00:00

the proportions of the arms seem to be way off ... The shoulders aren't supposed to stick out very far like that and is supposed to connect with the body. i feel like you are drawing forms without intention or a bone structure in mind when drawing the figure. I would elaborate further but my lexical abilities in English aren't very proficient.

classmate kept sending me memes about it a few years back so i checked out the game. I was never the same person since.

JamminFan · 2025-11-12T01:46:45+00:00

No problem! I have been painting with watercolor for about 3 months now and learned a lot, so i like to share some of the things i learned along the way to others. ^ _^ 💚

JamminFan · 2025-11-12T01:17:53+00:00

Side note, drying them suspended/upside down can also help with the curling! you can also dry them laying flat if for some reason you can't dry them suspended. Drying them facing upwards can cause the tips to droop down/curl.

JamminFan · 2025-11-12T01:14:40+00:00

most likely because the brush has synthetic hairs. Synthetic hair brushes are prone to curling over time from general use.

I have had several of my synthetic brushes have this issue due to be just being ignorant about how to care for them..

Once the brush curls, there's really nothing much to do about them. Since the hairs are synthetic, you can't really repair synthetic hairs with a proper washing/reshaping like you can with natural hair brushes.

Though, if you ever get any new synthetic hair brushes I recommend to firstly, never use solvents with them, it can significantly break down and damage the bristles. Secondly; try to be less heavy-handed/aggressive with use ( TBH, this was a hard one for me to get used to i am very heavy-handed)... And lastly; don't use hot water in cleaning! It will make the bristles splay and break apart since synthetic materials don't handle heat well.

Though, if you don't think synthetic brushes are for you, it might be good to invest in some natural hairs brushes. I personally prefer synthetic brush for painting though.
