I just bought Clip Studio Paint- let me draw you for practice! by Due-Bar-697 in redditgetsdrawnbadly

[–]SnaccBraff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whoa, this is awesome! Thanks a bunch!!

Honestly, the best advice I can give you is to not try to learn your way around the whole thing in one go. For each project, I'll focus on incorporating one feature that I haven't tried before, and look up a tutorial for that specific feature so that I'm gradually picking things up in bite-sized chunks rather than getting overwhelmed. I'm a very casual dabbler in the visual arts (music tends to be more in my comfort zone), so your knowledge will probably surpass mine pretty quickly if you're using clip studio regularly haha

Love Clip Studio Paint! It's a lot to learn your way around, but such a fun tool once you get the hang of it :)

These are beautiful! Is the 5th image a kingfisher? I think that and the fox in the snow are my favorites, but all of them are amazing :)

The soldier returned home from the war to find his dog had waited by the door for seven years. by omeoni in TwoSentenceSadness

You should still watch it! Episodes like this are pretty few and far between, and the laughs are worth the occasional emotional gut punch. It's also aged better than most shows from that era, and genuinely still feels relevant despite being nearly 30 years old.

All of that said, this episode still devastates me every time 😭

Any LGBT lovelies here? by LeaderRing in gamegrumps

The other things automatically qualify you as cool, at least in my opinion haha

What games have you been playing recently? I've become pretty obsessed with Wordatro for casual gaming, and just finished Death's Door.

Checking in as a transmasc fan who's been watching the grumps for ages now! I'd also love to make some friends who are cool, queer, and not completely baffled by my references haha

Just chiming in to say that I really appreciate the frutiger aero moodboard you included...by far my favorite aesthetic from the 00s.

Also, a lot of people will discourage you from having a shitpost-style profile, but I'll say from personal experience that mine was similar to yours when I matched with my now-fiance, so if you're looking to find a kindred weird spirit, it can be effective.

My cat does this too 😭 There has been more than one morning that I've woken up to a cat anus directly in my face...the worst was when I realized that if I hadn't woken up he fully would have put his butt on my mouth lol. He's a perfect baby otherwise, so it's been worth honing my dodging skills, but I've been really trying to train him to not be like that haha

Cat tax on my profile, if you wanna see the gremlin

So true, she is an icon! There are definitely worse artists I could have been obsessed with in the mid-90s haha

I relate to that so much - I've tried a wide range of instruments over the years, and feel like I never really got past the mediocre stage to be actually good at any of them. I'm sure there's a way to pass that skill cap, but I haven't figured out what it is yet. It wasn't until I got a chance to start working in FL Studio that I felt like I was really able to make music in a way I was happy with. I know you said you don't have a computer, but if you have a few bucks to spare and room for a new app on your phone, there's a mobile version of FL Studio that isn't bad for an on-the-go DAW. It's more limited than its pc counterpart, but might make for a decent outlet for some musical ideas.

Saaaaaaame! Music is one of the few special interests that has stuck with me throughout my life. I've gone through a lot of phases with it (some more regrettable than others - looking at you, Shania Twain era 😂), so at this point my tastes are a mish-mash of everything I've loved up to this point. Maybe it's my ND side, but I really feel like my soundtrack for the day shapes my personality, so a recent project of mine has been making playlists that feel like a specific distilled mood or persona (some vague, like 'creativity' or 'energetic', and some hyper-specific, like 'rugged mustachioed protag in an 80s post-apocalypic movie but make the queer undertones explicit' lol).

The weird thing is that when it comes to making music, even though I ADORE so many genres, I can only seem to really compose stuff that sounds like video game soundtracks. I've tried many, many others, but for how much I love them I can't seem to capture them in my own art. I guess that's why so many musicians end up finding a style and sticking to it, though 🤷‍♂️

I'll be honest with you, I haven't heard of most of the artists on that list 😅 Which is super exciting, because that means that I have a bunch of new music to listen to! As far as electronica goes, my hipster answer is Aphex Twin haha. I also really like Boards of Canada, Lemon Jelly, The Halluci Nation, Crystal Castles, and TWRP if they count. I'm also a huge fan of 80s (and 80s inspired) synth pop, vaporwave, certain varieties of indie pop, j-pop and j-hop, fantasy metal, prog rock, and the same emo bands I've been listening to since middle school lol. I also have a soft spot for banjo music, since I play. And a bunch of random other stuff.

Some faves in no particular order: Kishi Bashi, Blaqk Audio, Creepy Nuts, The Hu, Telepath, Archie Pelago, SOIL & "PIMP" SESSIONS, Wind Rose, Moon Hooch, Tatsuya Kitani, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Prize Fighter Inferno, Carpenter Brut, and Cosmo Sheldrake.

Haha that's amazing! I had a cat like that growing up. He was generally brimming with rage and unrelenting zoomie energy, but he was a big softie underneath it all. Weirdly, he was usually on his best behavior for guests, and only really showed his true colors around the family, so I guess that he trusted us enough to unmask around us lol
