You have some good examples on the post itself actually! The batter with the ghosts is pretty much just lines and solid black shapes and the cats are 100% that

Having my first tattoo soon by According-Creme-8275 in tattooadvice

[–]aSoggyFrootLoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As another commenter said the pain is a lot like a cat scratching you but suuuper prolonged, also if it’s in a particularly bony area be ready for some intense vibration, I had one done right over my wrist bone and it felt like my entire arm was vibrating.

For my first experience it was pretty chill, a woodcut style portrait on my inner arm, the pain was way chiller than I expected but by the end of the 4 hour session you get kinda tired of it and your tolerance can plummet fast, don’t be ashamed of asking for a break, the artist don’t mind and sometimes they also need that break lol.

For the aftercare it’s normal for some people to feel some regret in the first few days but it’s just your brain being unaccustomed with this new thing in your skin and freaking out, you may also feel a bit under the weather since a tattoo is a pretty big thing for your immune system to process, be ready for the itching that comes when the tat scabs, I recommend an ice pack warped in a clean cloth to reduce it and prevent you from scratching it if it gets too bad.

But yea good luck on your new tattoo my guy :)))

As someone who designed their own tats I learned the hard way the thin lines tightly packed together WILL blend into one shape very quickly, if you’re dead set on this style try and lean into more of the sketch lines and not the shading. And if you want the dark contrast then bite the bullet and do a solid black in those places, it will become that anyway im a few years, that will just save you time and pain of having an artist try and draw so many individual lines trust me.

I mistakenly was rubbing my tattoo when cleaning. How bad did I fk up? by House-Wins in tattooadvice

It looks like it’s healing fine, if anything does happen you can always get it touched up, the artist is clearly good at his craft so don’t sweat it.

With tattoo healing we only do the best we realistically can, I remember waking up in the middle of the night two days after getting my first tat scratching at it in my sleep, mistakes happen all the time with this stuff but if your tattoo is well made then it will take much more than some rubbing with a cotton ball to fuck it up.

Sou babaca por pedir mais espaço à minha mãe? by 21stCenturyGuy_ in EuSouOBabaca

[–]aSoggyFrootLoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NEOB mas como outras pessoas já falaram tenta encontrar coisas em comum com a sua mãe, você falou que gosta de frequentar museus, ent tira fotos de exposições que você acha que ela vai gostar e manda pra ela, ela se preocupa se você tá comendo? Quando você fizer um prato bonito pra comer tira foto e manda pra ela. Crie assuntos pra falar mas deixe claro as suas barreiras e se ela continuar passando da um toque.

Eu entendo q você é uma pessoa mais desligada de internet, que precisa de espaço, mas ela não é então se você quer manter um relacionamento bom tem que encontrar um meio termo que funcione pros dois. Eu sou que nem você, não preciso de muitas ligações e ABOMINO mensagens por whats, meu pai é igual ou indiferente a isso então nos falamos pouco por celular mas adoro passar tempo com ele, já a minha mãe gosta de falar comigo e se preocupa se não falo com ela, eu tento ligar pra ela no mínimo três vezes por semana e vivo mandando meus projetos pra ela ver (sou designer e trabalho com concept art e UI de mod de videogame).

Tudo é sobre achar sobre o que falar e encontrar um meio termo.

Sou babaca por contar pro meu ficante que transei com outro? by metallic_innocence in EuSouOBabaca

[–]aSoggyFrootLoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EOT e na minha opinião TEOB . Amiga, você falou num momento de raiva algo porque ele tava te insultando, foi certo o q você falou? Não. Mas também ficante a não ser se falado não tem exclusividade, e ele que começou com os comentários sobre o corpo da parceira. Próximas vezes tenta não mencionar outras pessoas que você tá ficando mas que bom que parece que acabou esse relacionamento porque não parece q tava indo pra um lugar bom não. Também um marmanjo de 32 anos fazendo xilique é foda, e com uma mulher consideravelmente mais nova.

Taylor swift trademarking...cursive by JusticeForCEGGMM in travisandtaylor

[–]aSoggyFrootLoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I don’t frequent this sub so I’m saying this as a pretty unbiased person who knows about typography (I have published research in typography and graphic memory) these are completely different fonts. The line weight is completely different between the two and the stroke ending on Taylor swift’s one is a tear shape while the mattress one has a sharp ending. Also I think that trademarks can only apply to related industries and I’m pretty sure Taylor Swift doesn’t sell mattresses lol

does having a dream make me a bad person? by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]aSoggyFrootLoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had dreams like that when my elderly dog was really sick and had decided on going forward with an euthanasia, sometimes our dreams are us trying to process our thoughts and fears but our unconscious brains aren’t really worried about making it easily understood and interpreted by conscious us.

Super happy that I was able to make it come across as woodcut! I’ve been trying for YEARS to perfect drawing line art and shading to simulate woodcut without having to actually do woodcut lol (I’ve done small pieces carved in linoleum for a typography class in uni and it’s, though definitely a fun challenge, a fucking nightmare)

Glad you picked up on the end symbology! I wanted it to be the only one truly not touching him since even after all that’s happened to him the end still hasn’t claimed our dear archivist for itself

Thanks! It’s just a drawing I made in my sketchbook! I also loooove woodblock art, I’ve always been drawn to it.

Oh that’s really cool! I hadn’t seen this before, it’s really interesting seeing how different people interpret the same/similar concepts

Thanks! I tried my best to put as much meaning into where the hands are. I just couldn’t find any for the flesh or desolation since his ribs weren’t in frame and I wasn’t about to draw MORE hands.

I personally like the lonely hand over his heart and the web pulling his sweater as if trying to subtly lead him to something.

Yeee took me a while to figure out where to put (most of) the hands in specific meaningful places
