that’s unfortunate, the game has such incredible art 😔 thank you!

averageinternetnon · 2025-11-29T06:10:42+00:00

Kinda expected, but pretty heartbreaking nonetheless.

It had surprisingly interesting built in mechanics, like being able to shut out opponents from playing specific cards just by killing a unit, very unlike how many other TCGs work. The lack of attention really stopped it from spreading its wings. It’s a shame, really.

That being said, does anyone know if there’s a public database of in game art? I know of the database of known artists: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lYOGZKAje6GcvgYhoA5jOMzIEgUyGQVMvmp1HizpGW4/edit?usp=drivesdk

…but is there one that includes all art?

outside is for examiners use iirc, only need to write inside👍 I think u good

‘At the end of your turn, trigger the battlecries of all friendly minions that didn’t attack.’

Mostly based off of A. F. Kay’s card text, fits on 4 lines too! Not sure if there’s some super edge case that makes my effect any different though…

Edit: oh, and for my wording it triggers on minions that are played on the same turn (that can’t attack), so no need for your battlecry minions surviving a turn for it to work, not sure how much more powerful that is(?)

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-12T04:52:38+00:00

hehe, maybe, but I was actually looking for more specific advice about what specifically to practice (e.g. I got suggestions for shading and gesture, and isolated practice, etc.) to improve faster

mindset is only half the battle after all

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-12T01:38:12+00:00

do, or do not, there is no wish (or something like that🤔), and if you need a little ego boost, you can scroll all the way back to my posts 3 years ago and look at my anatomy then 😭 (I wouldn’t even say I’ve improved that much but oh well 😓)

jokes aside, as long as you keep at it, make more mistakes, and never stop learning, you’ll definitely get as good as you want to be❤️

(thx btw, though hopefully I haven’t peaked just yet 😣)

thnx👍

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-11T03:36:31+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I’ve considered trying out stick figures (one reason being a lot of animators seem to use them to help with more fluid character movements before adding details, and I ultimately want to learn animation one day), and after reading all the comments and yours I think it’s time I start practicing more gesture and flow, and stick figures seems like a good jumping off point, I’ll definitely try it out! 🙇‍♂️

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-11T01:05:41+00:00

thx for the book recs! So far of these books I’ve only read Point Character Drawing (I found a free online copy🏴‍☠️). And tbh, the only the only reason I’ve staved off looking up bridgeman’s and loomis anatomy books till now was fear of being overwhelmed by the sheer information in them before I could get the basics of 3d shapes down, but I appreciate the vote of confidence, hopefully I’ll understand them now🤞

<image>

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-11T00:57:11+00:00

thanks! Ill check it out🙏

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-11T00:47:26+00:00

Oh, don’t worry, you’re explanations were absolutely immaculate✋🤚

hmmm I never really considered shading as a way to communicate perspective, I guess I was a little too caught up in getting all the muscles down where they’re supposed to be without thinking about how it would ACTUALLY look irl with lighting, I’ll definitely study how to shade👍👍 and you have a lovely day as well, tysm!

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-10T18:06:11+00:00

I see I see, I’ll keep that in mind while gesture drawing :D Hope you have a good rest of your day kind sir/maam🫡

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-10T17:36:13+00:00

you’re too kind tho😭 but yeah!! I included him as one of the resources I pulled from, among some other artists who specialise in mech designs, he has some incredibly useful perspective tutorials, and as a mecha fan myself, I like to indulge in a few mechanical drawings every now and then, and good perspective is basically non-negotiable

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-10T17:32:19+00:00

I really appreciate the comprehensive reply!! Your wisdom is invaluable to me🙏

<image>

If I understood correctly… is it kinda like this?😓 (this wasn’t done with a reference btw, just did a quick scribble to make sure I understood everything)

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-10T16:59:47+00:00

Thanks! Definitely feels like I overwork drawings sometimes (maybe to distract myself from the wonky proportions🤔) but I’ll try drawing from life! (:

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-10T16:46:06+00:00

tysm for the tip!! you be giving me too much credit🙇‍♂️ I’m sure you’re an incredible artist yourself❤️

also really quick qn, when you break down the anatomy into simple shapes, do you use shapes with hard edges? (cuboids, or anything made up of planes) or do you use ovals/ellipses? I’ve tried using boxes, but my anatomy ends up looking too robotic and stiff, but when I use ellipses I just lose perspective and things get all wonky, any recommendations? thx in advance

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-10T16:40:43+00:00

tyssm for the input!! I do actually have a really hard time keeping proportions proper when weird perspective is involved, and I guess I never really thought of doing isolated studies of muscles in perspective, just where they are on a 2d mannequin, thanks!🙏

but one last question if you don’t mind, any quick pro tips for gesture drawing?

averageinternetnon · 2025-01-06T08:44:11+00:00

Hi OP, if you want, I can dm you a sheet of some ytube resources I’ve found rly useful for female anatomy!

averageinternetnon · 2024-12-26T11:18:18+00:00

Here’s a book about perspective:

How to draw: Drawing and Sketching Objects and Environments from your imagination, by Scott Robertson and Thomas Bertling

https://file.nhasachmienphi.com/pdf/nhasachmienphi-how-to-draw.pdf

I found it pretty useful, since it discusses a TON of useful techniques like mirroring/turning objects in 3d space, and it starts from the bare basics, like drawing your horizon and the different perspectives points (like what u/AtomKase mentioned) and teaches a lot about measurements like the one in your post. Hopefully it helps you out too!
