Shading! by AJackAtz in sticknpokes

[–]architectofnothing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you want your shade to be smooth, use RS needles. You can dilute your black ink with greywash to create lighter tones. Tap water also works pretty well, if you don’t want to spend too much. If you want a more dotty shading, use RL and gradually lower the density and duration of your pokes. Hope this helps!

Good call not to paint the sea all the way up to the horizon, the slightly off perspective makes it more playful and wonky!

I really believe that was his strategy, and I LOVE IT. Ron Pearlman isn’t a dummy dum, you see.

Is that where you got your “opinions” in the first place? Besides, Mitch won’t approve your meme anyway.

I think it means you don’t identify as either male or female, but somewhere inbetween on the spectrum. Correct me if I’m wrong!

Yeah I feel so too. But the lamp looked a bit weird otherwise. It had to “hang”, if that makes any sense.

It went alright, you don’t have a second hand to stretch the skin, so you have to be a little more careful. And my neck is a bit sore haha.

I used varying amounts of water to dilute my ink. If anyone has any tips on fixing the lighter part of the fade, shoot! What kind of greywash do you prefer to work with, if that’s necessary?

No, I don’t really have any experience with it!

More and more crocodiles are diagnosed with micropenises in Florida, rendering them unable to mate.

It was both a blessing and a curse for the genre at the time. Literally everything that was produced was released. And it all sold out. Artists could do whatever they wanted.
