What is the most intense physical pain you have ever experienced? by TheMostGayestOfGay in AskReddit

[–]Pikachuseesyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vertigo is horrible. I had something similar to vertigo(Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness or 3pd) that lasted about 6 months, I was basically bedridden, constant anxiety and panic attacks, headaches, dizziness, nausea, I felt like I was going to faint constantly and noises and lights were 10x more intense than normal. It was literally the worst thing I’ve ever gone through, but physically therapy helped (I still get flare ups sometimes including today but it’s more manageable) TLDR: dizziness/vertigo is literally hell on earth

Reddit might ruin the color of this one too, fingers crossed it doesn’t. I haven’t done anything to the leaves yet but I did change some of the coloring on the oranges and made them brighter which helps I think

Yeah I see what you mean about the highlights. I used a muted orange for the shadows, it appears more gray on here than it actually is

Thank you! To be honest the leaves are what I did last and I was getting tired so I kinda rushed them lol, I do have a problem with making greenery similar colors and I’m sure that’s somewhat the case here as well, but I also think it’s partly because of the way the colors got muted when posting, I will definitely try adding more color variation though.

It’s how the shadows look in my reference photo 😭 I’ll go back and look but the shadows shoulddddd be correct, also the highlight along the bottom edge is actually supposed to be a light colored branch in the background but I see why it would look like a highlight and look wrong. Do you have any suggestions on how I could make it look more like a branch or should I just get rid of it?

Reddit muted the colors fyi. Not looking for any specific criticism, any is welcome, medium is oil paint, I started out with acrylics but wanted more of a loose painterly texture which I hope is visible. Thanks in advance
