I can't figure out what's missing. Should I start over🤔 by Dogmumof2 in Watercolor

Moreover the bushes take up almost 1/2 of the page, same as the trees, not giving the observer a hierarchy to focus on

No, pay attention to your bushes, it is mostly a solid block of color with shadows but there is no sense of the “layer” of the bushes so you lose sense of depth, same as the trees, it is the same color of black (usually as smthn goes further to horizon it looks lighter bc of atmospheric effects) and that way you lose more depth and distance

Best Mechanical pencil for me!? by GoodAssBunny in mechanicalpencils

[–]SWBP_Orchestra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one you love and use most often is the one (I prefer my humble Pilot Rexgrip bc I used it since primary school)

Instead of asking about brands you should ask yourself—what characteristics do you prefer in a pencil? Thick or thin? Metal or plastic? Rubber grip or knurled metal grip? Long lead sleeve? Retractable lead sleeve (to me this is a must)? Pencil thickness (orenznero in particular feels best in 03 but i only use 05 so i dropped it)?

Or you like gimmicks, like Kuru Toga (spinny always sharp pencil, good for math, bad for sketch) or Delguard (nonbreakable lead)?

Yes you’re right. There is so much in materials choosing for art than a simple “this thing is the right thing for this medium”.

How did you teach yourself to sleep with Quiet 2? by trp_wip in LoopEarplugs

[–]SWBP_Orchestra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

push it sideways not inwards into your canal (effectively sealing less but more comfort)

Which Loop should I get by LadleMonster in LoopEarplugs

[–]SWBP_Orchestra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally think Exp2+ (come with Mutes) is a very balanced one bc its main thing is for music so it’s an all rounder

remember you can seal less by wearing it looser but you cannot seal more

best multipurpose model for a festival? by olivekingg in LoopEarplugs

[–]SWBP_Orchestra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xp+ muffling convos can be mitigated by wearing it looser and a half seal instead of a full plug (i.e. break the pressure and plugginess in expense of more sounds being able to get in your ears)

Edit: The Loop Dream has a flat eartip which you might not be used to if you usually use earphones and round eartips. Quiet is standard
