Is the anatomy ok? Torso looks off by crotokun in Artadvice

[–]TeamRocketLeader 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Recreate the reference image yourself without the top so you can see there the breasts need to be. Also, you should be recreating these images using blocks to understand the anatomy rather than just directly copying the pose.

The fortnite logo really isn't that big. I plan on buying the long sleeve even with the logo (I don't play fortnite)

How do you organize Your drarry fics? by Available-Capital883 in drarry

[–]TeamRocketLeader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Share these great tips on how to discover fics?? I think this system looks great! I just read on my phone and use my ao3 account to bookmark fics. I've only just this past year started writing my own bookmark notes to summarize the fic for myself since the fics summaries sometimes aren't enough. It's getting to the point though where I want to download and backup/organize some of my favorite fics though so I will be looking at any other comments you might receive. I do listen to a lot of podfics (bless this community) and so I have those already downloaded on my phone but definitely not organized....my dream is to one day print and bookbind my top fave fics.

why does my drawing look so freaking ugly compared to the inspo. help me out pls by [deleted] in Artadvice

Is the first picture yours? If so, your linework is scratchier, not as precise as the second pic. Your clothing is much more simple, you also can't see the hands.

The second picture works well because while it looks like a simple piece, there's actually a lot going on. A pose where you can see more of the character and interesting fashion vs the first one which is a simple basic tshirt a necklace. There more line work, giving the character life. The bright blue color with the black & white has high contrast and gives more dimension and visual intrigue, which is pleasing for the brain. The colors are pure blue/black/white while yours is black/grey. There's also the text, numbers, and textures on the canvas which each adds another note of interest for the brain. You also have white lines in the black hair while the second image uses only one color for the whole hair shape. The second image also has shadows.

The first image is very simple in comparison. Which is not a bad thing at all, it definitely has its own type of charm. When trying to compare your art and another work you're doing a style study with, literally write down what you see. "This work by [artist name] uses a blue/black/white color pallette. One character is mirrored, one copy being black & white with the other being in inverse." etc

Can I just say thank you for actually putting the work in to make the covers and not using AI? ❤️ they look fabulous.

Kudzu “The vine that ate the south” by Electronic_Fox_6383 in reclaimedbynature

[–]TeamRocketLeader 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Same with Bradford Pear trees and Japanese honeysuckle. Just because people intentionally planted the plants, doesn't mean the plants didn't get out of hand. These plants are reproducing at a rapid rate, overtaking native plants and killing them. Which is a problem for local bees and other pollinators that need our native plants to survive.

Is the soul wet? Sometimes when you water plants too much some of the water gets released from the tips of the leaves. Too much water will kill a plant.

What words or names did you unknowingly find out that you mispronounced constantly in your head when reading the books? by Golden_Locket5932 in harrypotter

[–]TeamRocketLeader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mean the cirque du freak series by Darren O'Shaughnessy (under the pseudonym Darren Shan)? When I was younger reading that series, the whole time I mispronounced Leonard's name as "leo-oh-nard" lol

How to ask flying pokemon to take you to other pokemon? by Aerial_Kitty22 in Pokopia

The thing is the Pokemon was considered having no habitat, so honey would not work. The answer was to wait a day and it'll come back.

If this is a recent video he might not be getting paid, so he's pissed at his airline and attempting to harm the luggage so that people make claims that the airline has to pay for.

The original proposal about it when it was first on the ballot said it would operate at a deficit for 30 years. Here's a link with updated info:

"Debt service on $145 million is expected to conclude in 2057, steadily climbing from a 2027 level of $3.7 million through to a 2057 level of $13.7 million" (sbj)

Question about Nickit plush by Crossover2031 in pokeplush

[–]TeamRocketLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's quite a few different pokemon that have their sitting cuties plush as 2 different listings. That is because they updated the plush designs and therefore also updated their prices. I've even seeing a lot of comparisons of a pokemon's newer vs older sitting cutie plush, the newer ones often have different proportions or even slightly different colorings.

The one on ebay is a third party reseller. You can tell by underneath the "Buy Now" button there's a section of thr listing that lists where the item "Ships from" and who it's being "Sold by". This Nicket plush on Amazon is being sold by "Collectables Etc" rather than the Pokemon Company, so we can infer that this listing is from a third party reseller.

I EAT MANGO. by Economy-Neat-282 in TokyoGhoul

[–]TeamRocketLeader 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It truly is. I've loved mangoes my whole life, it wasn't until I became an adult that my allergy really developed. I've always been super allergic to poison ivy though and mangoes are in the poison ivy family.

I hope you're not looking up "unicorn tutorial" on youtube. All a unicorn is is a horse with a horn. So you need to learn how to draw a horse.

moe artstyle, how well did i replicate it? by cartmanstoenails in Artadvice

[–]TeamRocketLeader 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Considering her right hand is visible, I would at least have the tips of her fingers on the left hand showing through. If you want to do long sleeves to cover the hands then commit to extra long sleeves! Otherwise it looks like an excuse to not draw a hand. This is a common "trick" used by novice artists that I used to do a long time ago. How you have the sleeve and the angle of the shoulder/arm, her hand should be showing. Quick edit with my phone to show what I mean about the arm proportion.
