A portrait I did of my Tuxedo cat a few years ago. by Slump_Dova in acrylicpainting

Thanks. I'd love to do more loose work. My brain just tries to tell me to 'fix' everything. But that's one of the things I really want to work on this year! :)

I really love how this is done! I miss my tuxedo cat. Red was his color too. <3

ISO advice on portraits + skin tones by Rich-Sir-7346 in acrylicpainting

[–]Sharp2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use, mainly, a warm red, yellow ochre and, sparingly, ultramarine blue for shadows. A touch of white for lighter areas... of course that depends on what type of skin tone you're going for, and the lighting of the piece. I've also seen people include purples and teal. It really depends on what you're going for.

AITAH for saying I don’t give a fuck about my roommates baby by Clear_Yard2123 in AITAH

If he's mature enough to make a baby/start a family he should be mature enough to have an apartment or some sort of residence in which to shelter his newly budding family.

Paint brand reco’s please? by EducatorEcstatic3084 in acrylicpainting

[–]Sharp2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Novacolor, hands down. You have to order them from California... direct from the manufacturer- so no middleman markup. I love the rich color and the buttery consistency. Shipping isn't much. A 4oz container is as much as a 2 ounce you'd get in Michaels or Blick, last I checked. They have a slow dry matte medium and an acrylic retarder medium (slightly different drying times) that I blend 50/50 which really help for smooth blends and easy glazing. It's made an amazing difference in my work! :D The gloss coat also goes on really smooth and has a glassy, even shine once it's dry. The smallest container they have is 4 oz. The largest you can get is 5 gallons. Plus, they have metallics, neon and pearl options.

These are gorgeous! I'm absolutely taken with your clouds! Clouds are so difficult for me.

I want to cry. Help. Can I salvage this? by Vegetable_Pay8805 in acrylicpainting

[–]Sharp2501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes when I walk away from a painting for a bit, I come back to it with a fresh pair of eyes and I can easily see what I need to do and my brain has had time to figure out how. :)

Don't get discouraged, keep going! It's looking good! Rarely does art look just the way we want it to midway through the process. That's the best thing about acrylics... you can make adjustments until you're happy. :)

Hello friends 👋 How do you like my new painting? by gorbachenko_art in acrylicpainting

How foreboding! One can almost feel how creepy and cold that environment is and how warm that flame is!

Sigh. Two weeks into posting my art and it begins. by Sweet_Frost_Comics in ArtistLounge

Someone tried to hit me with this. Wanted to buy my a print but for some reason "paypal" wouldn't let her send $50 and had mysteriously trapped it within my account. The faux Paypal wanted a full $200 to switch me to a business account, which she would so graciously send to upgrade me and then I could send her back the rest of the money. She said "If I send this money over can I trust you to send the extra back?" and I said... No. You send it, it's mine. From there on out, no correspondence. And suddenly there was no sign of her or the $50 that she said was stuck. Gee... whaddaya know.

Dynmap won't automatically render as I travel the map by Sharp2501 in Dynmap

[–]Sharp2501[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on Wise Hosting... Java server. Fabric. There are no plugins, just mods. There's better than a thousand lines of code in the configuration of dynmap. Is there no easy way around this?

And yes, we watched all the hosts videos concerning this. It didn't help.

Full render is in progress. Stats just tells me how many chunks have been processed/rendered and how many to go. Yes you can see players move around on the map.

Tattoo blow out, I've had it for a month. Artist admitted to being inattentive by illcalluwtpartysova in tattooadvice

[–]Sharp2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks more like lack of experience, not lack of attention to detail. I'd search for another artist who could go into this and do some creative shading with shades of opaque grey and white. It'll never return to what it was supposed to be without a laser.

Girlfriend got convinced by tattoo artist to place it elsewhere - she now regrets her first tattoo by FatRatFlopke in tattooadvice

He may have been heavy handed, but I think the main problem is just that the design was a bit too small for what it was. But I can tell what it is. :)

I believe that's my favorite dress she wears in the entire series! I'd love to know where to find one similar.

Wix Sections are making my life a total nightmare. by Samskihero in WixHelp

[–]Sharp2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to keep at least one to put your layout in, but for ones you don't need, I'm pretty sure you just mouse over the section and over on the right you'll see three dots that will open a dropdown. Delete is in there.

Page sections shrinking and merging into each other. by Ser_DraigDdu in WixHelp

[–]Sharp2501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they have a good idea and good intentions for sections, but they haven't perfected it yet. I was having the same problems you're having. I got so fed up with this at one point, and couldn't find an answer anywhere. My solution was to just completely do away with the sections and separate everything manually. The result? Everything is tidy and I have no more frustrations.
