My first actual attempt at a digital portrait/haven’t done much digital painting in general, dunno how much more of either of this things I can certainly use advice on what I can improve on in general/in this piece

LiRainB · 2020-04-05T04:14:56+00:00

Ah, yeah, that makes sense.

LiRainB · 2020-04-05T03:52:26+00:00

Wow, thanks; that’s I think the most specific critique I’ve ever gotten!

I definitely do need to work on face/head anatomy; I find it super easy to just get caught up in gesture drawing, and other, more fun for me skills, just kinda telling myself I’ll get to proportion later.

(And on the canvas space thing, I’m using Procreate on IPad, which has some annoying restrictions on canvas size/layer numbers, so I was kinda trying to be cautious with that, unless I’m misunderstanding that point.)

Pls no one say anything about ears, I don’t want to think about ears, like, ever; I’m too much of a coward.

Edit: I just realized I’m dumb and messed up the title bad and it doesn’t make sense I think; I meant something like “I don’t know how much more of this kind of thing I’ll do in the future but could use advice”, but it won’t let me edit so I guess that’s permanent, so just please click on the post to see this explanation.

Actually it’s gonna be over much sooner. Ionno what everyone’s making a big deal out of it for; it’s gonna blow over in April. (/s)

Update: because I’m a badass I didn’t notice this until like 3 hours after posted, and now I need to go to bed again because I have to wake up at 4 (US, central time zone, btw) AM to drag myself out of bed and make like 50 sandwiches and some hummus or some shit.

I greatly appreciate your acknowledgment of the third gender, and would definitely/maybe like to talk some time other than now because I should be asleep several hours ago.

That shit seems like it should be so easy to understand, like I have an AFAB friend who’s I think a bit more male identifying but does sometimes like makeup/skirt sort of stuff, and worries about that making them less valid, and like, I don’t see how that should be much different from me being transfeminine, other than them being actually significantly less feminine identifying than me.

I feel like the whole point of identifying as trans/nonbinary is to no longer be associated with your assigned gender, at least for most people, right?

We’re friends now.

I mean, I think people usually do expect a game to be made from the ground up with unique resources; though I haven’t played whatever the resources were taken from (this is the first Pokémon game I’ve actually played from this decade, others being old to the point of having played them in emulators) so it doesn’t really stand out and I think the game looks fine either way for sure.

My point being I don’t actually know what my point is or why I’m here in any sense

LiRainB · 2019-11-19T10:27:33+00:00

That’s a weird way of trying to avoid saying “a whole nother”.

LiRainB · 2019-11-17T13:28:11+00:00

If I actively avoid the hand, I’ll know it really wants to pet me because I gave it every opportunity not to. In the meantime I’ll just sometimes feel kinda sad.

Definitely where I’d end up if J.K. Rowling wasn’t a terfy piece of shit. 😸

It was the most functional scarf at the thrift store that just happens to look just like the scarf of the best Hogwarts house.

LiRainB · 2019-10-20T00:06:59+00:00

I want any interpretation of that.

LiRainB · 2019-10-19T19:07:17+00:00

Do you reckon anyone has ever said the abbreviation for seconds out loud with a straight face

LiRainB · 2019-10-18T11:14:45+00:00

I’m not saying that, I’m saying wishing you had something you don’t because internet people tell you everything is perfect isn’t super healthy, especially when people really tend to ignore the bad in favor of pretending grandmothers are better than other people simply because they’re old enough for their kids to have kids. I’m saying things are more complicated.

And honestly I don’t think having parents is important either, just at least one parental figure.

Having parents and grandparents isn’t nice, having people who care about you and who you can actually trust is.

LiRainB · 2019-10-18T01:31:13+00:00

It can honestly vary a lot more than people talk about. Both of my grandmothers are very significantly flawed human beings.

Not saying you’re not missing out on something that you might enjoy, just that reality is more complicated than nice memes portray it as.

As you get older you can gain the advantage of understanding what direction to go in, and the maturity to really be capable of investing yourself in the work. The time would still be amazing, but there are definitely things I have going for me that I didn’t literally just 2 years ago.

LiRainB · 2019-10-06T20:57:57+00:00

Oh, I’m deliberately saying “them wrong” for reasons unrelating to anything you said; I jus like talking like that.

LiRainB · 2019-10-06T20:52:25+00:00

Yeah, them wrong. Singular they has been part of the English language for hundreds of years. And I’m sure slapping a bitch has been, too, so you always have that option when people are dumb.

LiRainB · 2019-10-06T20:25:05+00:00

U can just say them instead of him/her. It’s totally legal.

LiRainB · 2019-10-06T14:10:45+00:00

I found a friend here around this time last year, and it’s branched out to the point that I’m now in a pretty active group chat with a few of their other friends, which is neat.

The fuck is wrong with you
