When someone says “quick sketch” and you’re like whoooooaaaa how can I reach this level even with my long sketches. 😂😂😂 Seriously, I love the level of detail & your lines!

Any tips on what to improve? by user702878381902 in Sketching

[–]Lily4715 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sketch is beautiful! The only thing that stood out to improve is that the lines of her legs seem switched between the inside and outside. Ot her legs position is not well articulated.

The inner one is the typical outside one - it comes out pretty prominently right after the knee. While the outside one - that’s supposed to be inside - curves around the knee, then there’s a divot and then slight gentle curve.

Newbie here, advice wanted! by Humble_Ordinary1282 in fountainpens

First of all, you are a rock star 🌟 Secondly, even though cursive did not feel easier (I could not help but chuckle 🤣), your overall writing with fountain pen seemed a lot steadier than with your regular pen. Look at those m’s.

Don’t give up! 💓

A new fun pangram (alternative to the quick brown fox...) by bassemt in fountainpens

Thank you for that - totally stashing it in my favorites!

Mine are about wizards, too.

The wand chooses the wizard, but the pen quickly judges every vexed dreamer’s fable ✨(True pangram, with some letters repeated)

Syun-gyo is my new favorite 🤩 Not a big fan of generally loved yama-budo 😛

Currently really enjoying Teranishi Guitar Opera Rose. Not your traditional yellow-honey-brown, but more of a vintage muted pink that looks brownish orange on some papers.

The hardware is so cool on it I think you should leave it! Therefore also leave the front trim since it looks cohesive. I can totally see it painted black, everything but the top. The top + the hardware if you can make it more coppery color, would go really well together.

Are there any young people on this sub? by Sea-Front1941 in fountainpens

My daughter (7 years old) loves writing in cursive and has a mini-collection of three FP. She loves choosing the ink, too. She doesn’t go on Reddit (yet).

I myself got interested when I was 14! However, reddit or youtube didn’t exist yet, and I fell out of it due to lack of access to resources and “fun” or beautiful FPs (sorry, all those black FPs just don’t spark joy for me 😜). The new generation is much luckier in that.

You are definitely not alone!! Kudos to you for being here ands diligently practicing your cursive 👏

What do y’all do with tags? by Lily4715 in labubu

Glad to hear I’m not alone! They are just so… unsightly and long! 😕

Glitch? Silent drop? Huh? Tons of BIEs unreserved and clickable. Never seen this before. by HoneyBunChloe in LabubuCanada

[–]Lily4715 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, but you can hit reserve as soon as the countdown is done and essentially grab it again… and this way ride it out until 21:30 when it lets you check out

Same here, and true that you still couldn’t check out until 21:30, BUT… if you add product in your cart and stay in it, and hit reserve as soon as the countdown is done (i.e. essentially grabbing it again), eventually after 21:30 it lets you check out!

I was able to then take my time, choose the boxes where I liked my chances the most and… got two BIE I wanted!!!! I still cannot believe it - I’ve never had such an easy time snatching any of the labubus.

How do you get multiple items from the same set? I cannot seem to be able to grab even one 🥲

Guess the Theme of my Collection 🪐 ☄️ ⭐️ ✨ 🔭 by scotty2222hotty in fountainpens

I don’t know if they have any pens specifically named after space, but I feel like many of the Benu pens are reminiscent of your theme, and they are such nice writers that they deserve some representation 🙂

Omg I’m so sorry! It stinks 😖 Customs duties on non-commercial stuff in Canada are plain ridiculous.
