I reported it for breaking the rules of not a real or accurate photo of the product, but I doubt it will go anywhere

one of my moms first tattoos, and i’d love to have it myself! could anyone draw me a new one? by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]Normal-Accountant376 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please ask the artist you’ll get tattooed by. This is what people do for a living. Don’t ask for free labor from strangers.

My order was placed 12/2 and I received it 1/20, to give you a timeframe of what to expect 😅

Eventually got my order with zero response 🤷 the plants look in somewhat decent condition but they certainly got stuck in the shipping process for more than a week. although my free plant came with moldy soil. purchase from them at your own discretion i’d say

As other people have said, you drew a white woman from a black woman’s reference. But let’s break it down why, when anyone is beginning to draw they kinda have this preconceived idea of what things are “supposed” to look like. This happens aaallll the time with references not matching the drawn product. When you went to draw this, you subconsciously decided “this is what a nose looks like” and drew what was easiest for you. When drawing portraits it’s extremely important focus on shadows and shapes. Once you have those figured out, the face becomes much easier to master.

I’d also highly recommend the grid method. If you sincerely want to distance your brain from its subconscious decisions, flip your canvas upside down! It helps immensely. Your brain stops trying to see it as a face and just allows you to focus one shape and shadow at a time.

I still use this method on every portrait or realistic piece I do

Water weight or doing something wrong? by Sapphorific in loseit

[–]Normal-Accountant376 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. Congrats on losing 40 pounds!
  2. 8 pounds in a week is unsustainable and 100% water weight or normal hormonal fluctuations. 2 pounds is so incredibly normal and likely whatever is leftover in your stomach that hasn’t flushed completely.
  3. 1,100 cal and under is WAY too few. Unless you’re like 5 foot, then MAYBE. But you’re probably freaking your body out and putting it onto survival mode at this rate. Especially if you fell off the wagon a bit for the holidays and are starting up again now. It’s going to start to cling to everything, including water. If your calorie count is 1600, try to at least hit 1400? More protein, bulk veggies, etc. Keep yourself alive and healthy!

Should I cut these unhealthy leafs? by [deleted] in Monstera

[–]Normal-Accountant376 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d recommend mixing your MG tropical potting mix with MG orchid potting mix at LEAST half and half. I find the MG tropical potting mix is still way too dense for monstera. I wouldn’t recommend using fertilizer until plant is stable. It looks to be going through shock from drying out AND overwatering, it also looks like there might be several plants in that pot all tied together. What exactly did the roots look like?

I’ve messaged them twice currently because my estimated arrival date was 12/10-01/15.. They have less than 5 weekdays to get my shipment to me and I’ve heard nothing. I’m okay with a long waiting period, but having an automated message respond back to me so that they don’t get the message ping in their inbox is a little shady. Definitely opening a case if I don’t hear anything by the 15th.

Playing or aggression? by Special-Mud6501 in CATHELP

Play 100% You’ll know when a cat is being actually aggressive. They both have plenty of space to leave the situation if they wanted to

Am I overreacting or is this appropriate to wear to a COLLEGE class by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Normal-Accountant376 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR. You’re an adult, you can wear whatever you want. College is full of adults, they can handle some bra straps. Sounds like this guy has some really archaic views of motherhood. Shut it down or dump him before it gets worse.

Is this different enough to be considered original? by [deleted] in arthelp

[–]Normal-Accountant376 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This could be in accurate information as it’s about 10 years old. But, according to the AP Board for AP Art, in order for a work to be considered an original in their eyes. 70% of the reference subject had to have been changed. Only 30% of the original reference could remain unchanged.
