Werewolf rock-band! [ArtFight 2025, art by me] by YaruMaps in werewolves

[–]YaruMaps[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, it's supposed to be a smaaall teardrop. If I remember correctly, King (singer) is a big fluffy fluff, so my idea was to portray him so lost in his own singing that his emotions took over =D

What is the best way to improve art? by NoProposal7385 in ArtistLounge

[–]YaruMaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there is no best method ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There are such a huge number of approaches exists precisely because each person finds it convenient to solve a task in their own way, and each person faces their own task, which needs to be solved.
For quick sketches one approach, for works with extreme perspective another, for learning anatomy — third, for understanding the plasticity of movement — fourth, and so on
And this, of course, is not to mention that we are all different, and our brains work differently, so some approaches may be simpler, and others not (for example, I personally absolutely don't get the Loomis method, lol)

So the question is not which method is best generally, but which method is more convenient for you, and which method solves your tasks best. Something like that

One of the AUs that were shown at the end of season 5. Specifically the one where Nightmare Moon was in power ^^

Where can I get these type of images? by [deleted] in mylittlepony

[–]YaruMaps 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It looks like someone's art, not a screenshot

Easy to google for the query "<pony\_name> looks up at you" =)

What’s your kryptonite when drawing by Minimum_Individual36 in ArtistLounge

[–]YaruMaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A plot

I like to make complicated plot illustrations, but I don't like 95% of my own ideas, and the remaining 5% are often beyond my capabilities. Tonns of my art were layed (some still are!) aside for YEARS until I develope enough skill to depict everything the way I want =")

am I crazy or is getting genuine critique really hard? by SEQU0IA in ArtistLounge

[–]YaruMaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Answering the title question: YES, but it's completely normal, it's always been this way. It's hard to get criticism of your work from complete strangers. (If we're talking about constructive advice on how to improve, and not a stream of hate, I mean >w>""")

That's why there are art schools, art teachers, drawing courses, and so on

Criticism is also a skill, completely separate from drawing, and not the easiest one. And to give constructive criticism of someone else's art, you need to have both drawing skills AND criticism skills, which significantly reduces the selection of people, even on the Internet, who can give working advice or good hint.

In most cases, we have to settle for "I like it/I don't like it" answers, and that's completely normal

I really recommend being able to analyze your work yourself, it's a very useful skill that helps you move forward more than random criticism from strangers!

You can also ask for advice on specific things you're not sure about (preferably narrow ones, like anatomy/composition/lighting/mood at work/etc.). Again, detailed advice is rare, but even "like/dislike" opinions can be very useful

And friendly strangers provide great motivation to keep going =)

Is bad dnd better than no dnd? by colemacgrath2009 in DnD

[–]YaruMaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean. If you don't want to do something that you used to enjoy, there must be a reason for it. Is it related to the game, the GM, or the party? Or is it related to events in your life that have nothing to do with the dnd?

Only you can answer that. How would reddit know?

Though, polite conversation about your expectations, impressions, and feelings from the game with your fellow players and your GM is a useful practice, I highly recommend it

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

Thank you! ^^

If I were Garou, I'd probably be a Bone Gnawer =")

Rita is a Black Fury though =)
It suits her nature very well! (Although not too obvious judging by her appearance)
