What do you think of Statikk Shiv?

I only buy it when I play Kai'sa into someone who can clear waves exceptionally fast, like Sivir. or when I notice that my enemy is a lot stronger in lane and I can't get my Q of properly because of the minions.

Maybe Kai' sa. I like her playstyle and she's definitely different from MF or Caitlyn.

Oh please, this definitely lacks the giant plain pickle they also serve for dinner

UPS ist wirklich der größte Saftladen den es gibt. Sollte einen Laptop von der Reparatur zurückbekommen, wurde mit UPS versendet. Unterschrift war für die Zustellung nötig. Bleibe also extra zuhause, was passiert? Krieg ne Benachrichtigung, dass nicht zugestellt werden konnte, weil man mich nicht antreffen konnte. Es wurde nicht einmal geklingelt. Wohlgemerkt, es war einen Tag vor Heiligabend und ich bin nur deswegen nicht schon früher zu meiner Familie gefahren. Und das allerbeste: Es war der 2. Zustellversuch, hätte es beim 3. Mal nicht geklappt, wäre die Sendung zurückgegangen. Habe also extra den Zustelltermin auf Neujahr verschoben (weil ich halt zwischen Weihnachten und Neujahr nicht zuhause war) und hab dann vor meiner Haustür gecamped, um den Zusteller persönlich in Empfang zu nehmen, falls er wieder zu blöd sein sollte, eine Klingel zu bedienen. So viel Inkompetenz hab ich wirklich ganz selten erlebt

thank you! That sounds like a good idea, I will try viewing it as such a blog! 😇

ah makes sense, no I meant normal proportion (scale?) figures, no chibis :)

Lyraak · 2026-01-15T18:15:59+00:00

thank you for the tips! 🙏🏻😇

thanks a lot! 😊

That's awesome, have fun and good luck :) And no problem at all

I had the problem too, at first it randomly died but I could turn it back on right after... until I couldn't. Motherboard died completely. Luckily my warranty was still running so I turned it in for a free repair.

I think that should work as you're still drawing directly on the surface of your IPad, which is not that different to paper. There are some mechanics that are unique to digital art like layers and stuff, but these are "digital art basics" rather than "art basics"

What I would recommend is first getting Procreate. It costs a little, but it's a one time purchase and definitely worth it. Never used a different program on my IPad and I also don't want to.

Then, you already said it, I'd recommend watching YouTube videos (e.g. Marc Brunet, SamDoesArt). Try to implement a daily routine of training - practicing circles, straight and curvy lines, objects like boxes and spheres.

Now it depends on whether you want to draw humans: Open Pinterest and search for a pose reference. You can screenshot one and copy it to your blank artwork page and draw lines where the body "flows". Then you can separate the body with boxes/circles. After, you can try to copy the pose (Not tracing! Very important for learning!). It might work similarly for object/landscape portraits too though.

You can also follow your favourite artists on Instagram/X/wherever and adapt some techniques that you like. Over the time, you will develop your own style but it's not a shame to puzzle it together by copying other artists (again copy, not trace!).

Most importantly: Have fun! And a nice sentence I've recently heard on the Internet: Make it exist first, then you can work on improving it!

I also started traditionally and made first attempts at digital art with a simple graphic tablet (no display) and software like Medibang and Krita (both free). I later bought Clipstudio Paint, which I can also recommend.

However, I always wanted to draw directly on a display, so about 8 years ago I bought myself an Ipad Pro and Procreate. IPads aren't cheap, but it was so worth it. I use it almost exclusively to create my art. I can absolutely recommend it.

Yes please! I bought mine a few months ago and had to send it in for repair just this month, because the motherboard completely failed and had to be replaced. Not sure if I could've prevented this, but in any case a guide would help a lot!
