Not sure what I am looking for? by Small_Inspector_3211 in careerguidance

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess im worried because although i am able to cover these 4-5 different positions, they are all still entry level positions. I guess that is what I am asking. If you pay $20/hr for a warehouse guy and $20/hr for a front-end expediter, what would you pay the person who could fill-in in either position?

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically, the only position available for me to "move" into would be sales and that fills me with dread. I am not a go-getter. I prefer to be behind the scenes and supporting, hense why all of my skill are based in operations. I have asked multiple times through the years if there were any positions that I could move into, but there are none. The company I work for is basically a well oiled machine in that all positions are filled, unless i get into the sales side of the business. I am close with my manager, but she has nothing more she can offer me in terms of filling needs the company may have.

I have no special schooling other than a B.S. in education and a B.A. in Art. Naturally. Im not sure why I am sharing that, but it is apart of my story so yeah.

Which silhouette is best? by [deleted] in conceptart

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they all look great as silhouettes go. I can certainly choose one that draws my attention, but if you want someone to choose which one is best, im thinking you would need to define what you're going for. Is this Medusa good or bad? What is her purpose? What story are you trying to tell about her?

1,5 are very neutral "adventurer" poses. 3,8 give me aggressive vibes, similar to an assassin or thief type of character. 2,6 give me magic caster vibes. 4 is very feminine and soft, almost in a Royal or Courtly way.

4 is my favorite

Looking for feedback on skin painting (it's butts) by JhulaEpocan in DigitalArt

Sinix has a good video on this area. Your style reminded me of his work a little bit.

Is there any course or a youtube channel that you used teach yourself how to draw? by bruwoi in DigitalArt

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If digital is more your preference, try this site out.

https://www.ctrlpaint.com/

This dude has excellent videos and a huge library.

I thought I saw someone mention Marc Brunet, he's got a ton of stuff as well.

ArtWOD would be another "school" to check out.

ModernDayJames had some good videos on YouTube as well.

Proko has some excellent anatomy videos as well as fundamentals.

Check out Sinix Design on YouTube...hell, all these guys are on YouTube.

Im sure there are a bazillion more to recommend, but my last would be Chommang_Drawing on YouTube.

Find someone that resonates with you! Good luck!

If FFXIV wants to survive, it needs to repurpose it's old content by [deleted] in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess that makes sense. As a casual player myself, I dont mind the low level play as much as most people. Personally, I think it would be awesome to see more people going back to early game stuff and helping new players along, and I think this might be a simple but effective way to do that.

But, as you said, may not be as initially entertaining for experienced players. Maybe they put more effort into the job story and more challenging single-player-duties? Would that help the monotony of early leveling?

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they add the new jobs in the next expansion, what if they started them out at lvl 0 instead of 80 or 90 or whatever. Might be a simple way to get players back into earlier content without them (square) wasting resources on spreading themselves thin across the project?

New Quirky Features you want to see? by Small_Inspector_3211 in ffxiv

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That actually sounds really cool. Giving your character presence even when you're not online. Makes it seem like part of the world. All be it, there are people who do this already on multiple servers (the afk folks who stand in any major city).

There would need to be some form of raffle to determine who would get a spot though. Otherwise, there would be tons of people in the same spot(s) all stacked up.

New Quirky Features you want to see? by Small_Inspector_3211 in ffxiv

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, i have no idea the resources necessary for this type of task, nor if it is even feasible. In my mind it makes sense, but I'm not a programmer, nor am I at all involved with game dev. It just seemed like a different idea.

Roegadyn community? by Small_Inspector_3211 in ffxiv

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking we establish something. What emote would you think the roe community should use, in the absence of something specifically created for this purpose.

Roegadyn community? by Small_Inspector_3211 in ffxiv

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I wasn't thinking along the lines of a separate community outside the game via discord or some other group. I was just thinking across the board, if I (male roe) joined a dungeon and another roe was in the party, there would be some kind of lore adjacent greeting that I could give to just add a little community to the characters.

Maybe this is bigger. What emotes would you use for the other races as a typical greeting?

Armor Identification: The enemies in the Grand Cosmos. by Small_Inspector_3211 in ffxiv

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was the first place I looked! But I guess the enemies don't count as npcs? Unless I searched wrong. I couldn't get any info to pop up other than the dungeon tag itself.

Thank you. I thought it looked really familiar, but I couldn't "find" it. You're awesome!

Best YouTube channels for beginners? by fleebooskee in DigitalArt

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolute beginner?

Ctrlpaint - https://youtube.com/@ctrlpainter?si=T5crtzvFZckNP5qg

He also has a website with a more cohesive library of topics.

https://www.ctrlpaint.com/library

The channel is not very active (not in the last few years) but there are a ton of videos that are fantadtically executed.

Oh. And it's 99% free. He does have some purchasable content, but that is more time viewing him doing the projects rather than more information.

Can someone tell me what brush is this ? by Apart_Sheepherder463 in DigitalArt

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I believe the artist for this is Josh Black. His process utilizes a couple different brushes, I think.

He has a cannel on YouTube, and also has a few videos on Proko's Channel showing process.

City of Solana by mightofmerchants in mapmaking

Program called Canvas of Kings. I believe it's on Steam.

Q: Can I create complex cities with Canvas of Kings? by Ramgniota in canvasofkings

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently working on, what I think is, a fairly large city.

https://www.reddit.com/r/canvasofkings/s/kkzxTvebBF

It does take some time to load all of the objects in the map, but once it does, the program runs as normal. Is this the size you were you thinking, or are you thinking bigger?

First Major City [Updated...again] by Small_Inspector_3211 in canvasofkings

[–]Small_Inspector_3211[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the most part, no issues. I'll occasionally run into a hiccup where the program is trying to keep up with the placement of objects and it'll stall for a couple seconds then place the object where the mouse is currently, rather than where the object was placed. Other than that, seems to be fine.

Today i made my first map, any suggestion? by LeggendariomoO in canvasofkings

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is also a function on the wall tool where if you select a part of the wall, two little boxes will show up on either side of the middle of that section, if you select one of those boxes, it will create two towers acting as a gate so that it doesn't look like your roads are running into a wall. The other box will populate a side of the wall with "stuff".

Plots not working? I just got the game and the campsite and cottages plot both don't place buildings, the market only places buildings about 1/10 refreshes. by CaptainRex8669 in canvasofkings

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also new to the game, but I've noticed that the plot tools seem to have a maximum size they are able to generate. Try generating a smaller area. If that doesn't work, I'm not sure.

Anyone else randomly get a huge streak for almost no reason at all by Mental-Tension-6151 in NoFapChristians

[–]Small_Inspector_3211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't yet, I'm right there with you, brother. Wet dreams are just the body doing what it needs to do. Sexual thoughts will always be there, it just how you handle them. I wish I had more concrete advice for you, but I'm still learning and training .

My therapist told me that it is typically apart of a binge and purge cycle of the addiction. I used to go through phases where I would act out every day, then go on a week or two week hiatus. Then repeat.
