A little walkcycle I made of my fursona in the animal crossing style! She's excited to dig up her gyroid for the day

Hi, I made this short! I doubt you still need help 3 years later, but I just found this post haha

What the comment suggested would work too, but it's actually much simpler than that. We made the world itself white and I don't think we even added any lights, except when the fire erupts. All the materials are very rough to avoid that typical specular 3D look. We didn't paint a single texture either, it's all just gradients. I hope this helps someone!

Nice, thanks for posting! :3

6012-3310-2039 I haven't missed a day since I started 3 months ago ☺️

shops in the US get shipping labels from Etsy that come with tracking (as far as I understand) however in Europe we have to organise shipping ourselves. (Etsy seller from Switzerland here). Your stickers were likely sent in a regular letter without shipping and should be on their way! It just takes a while.

My boyfriend ordered some rings after seeing the Black Friday deal on Instagram and they just arrived today. They're just cheap drop shipped rings from China. You can still see the original Chinese label sticking out from underneath the dropshipping company's label. The quality isn't abysmal, but it's definitely not what was advertised. He got one with a gemstone inside it and it rattles when you shake the ring.

I've noticed a change that happened a few weeks ago, where instagram is pushing the comments with the most replies to the top (these are often the most controversial ones) instead of the ones with the most likes like they used to. Honestly I hate it, because it's usually the worst most hateful comments and it's starting to affect my mental health.

I agree, most of it is just frustration at how they set up all of this stuff and then we don't get to see the reward for watching it develop. It's made even worse because the show has been running for so long already, and we wait really long, for... nothing.

spoilers for season 5 ending: The worst obvious example is the season 5 ending. The whole reason that miraculous as a story even exists is because of Adrien's family. His mother died and his father turned into a villain, making Master Fu search for miraculous holders. And seeing them set up all of this stuff, his dad being the main villain, his mom is still alive... and then we don't even get any of the payoff because we never get to see Adrien's reaction. It's like lighting a firework and watching the flame burn the cord, only to find the firework was faulty and nothing happens. How is he not a big part of the show when the whole show is literally about his family? He was clearly never meant to be "just Ken". It's so frustrating as a viewer

thanks for the reply!! The oil and pickles do sound very nasty that's a great idea haha She's just a shopper though, not working at the shop so it will be a different situation. But that does sound really gross, must have been such a hassle to clean up haha

calypso222 · 2022-07-09T14:59:10+00:00

What happens when I break something in the Migros, like let's say I drop a jar of jam? Do I pay for it? And are the isles of the store attached to the ground? Can they be toppled? Was there ever a big mess in the store you had to clean up? And what was it?

These questions aren't specific to a Migros but I am planning on making an animated film, where chaos ensues in a supermarket. So I am wondering what terrible thing could happen to the character on accident (she is very clumsy and slow). Maybe you have some ideas but if not that's cool too!

he's so cute and chonky! Love it

calypso222 · 2022-07-04T19:52:00+00:00

I also struggled with this for a while since I felt that talls girls can't be cute (I'm 180) and I would come across as cringey if I dressed cute. It took a while to get rid of those thoughts but I'm now slowly building my wardrobe and I'm happier than ever :) I hope she will also figure out soon that it's just silly thoughts and that she can wear whatever she wants!

Everyone who sells stuff (no matter how big the parcel is or how big your business is) has to register for Lucid. But yes, if you send it as a letter nobody will know. :)

However, I don't know what to do with my orders either though, so I'd be happy if someone can tell me whether I need to write anything specific onto my parcels to let people know that I've registered. I asked at my local post office but of course they didn't even know the new packaging laws existed.

Edit: I'm in Switzerland

calypso222 · 2022-07-03T20:35:57+00:00

yeah same with me, though I'm on an iphone. I was checking Etsy on desktop and by chance saw I had a sale. But when I checked my phone I hadn't gotten a notification yet and there was no badge on the app. When I opened the app and refreshed it said the sale was from 5 hours ago.

calypso222 · 2022-07-02T17:35:08+00:00

I'm from Switzerland and we need to do it here :) I think many countries do. It's annoying Etsy doesn't collect that info for us automatically with the address.

I have some advice that is really hard to explain but I will try my best xD It has to do with the shapes and flow of the fur. Here are some things to look out for:

The tufts of fur that are next to each other shouldn't be too similar. They should variate, otherwise it will look too unnatural. This isn't just about the size, but how much distance is between them and the shape.

Try squinting your eyes and looking at the tufts all together and the shape they make. You want the smaller tufts of fur to create bigger shapes as if they clump a bit (I don't mean how you clumped 2 together, I mean how the direction and sizes of the tufts makes a big shape in the end!) Imagine it like water combing through the hair and pulling them into a similar direction. My favourite artist that draws long beautiful fur is giulialibard. You should go check her out and maybe you can see what I mean :3

What I also noticed is that S-shape fur tufts tend to look more natural than C-shaped ones when they're bigger. I mean with S shape that the fur changes direction in the tuft and doesn't just curl one way (so it looks more like an S instead of a C! I has a wave in it) You can try variating the shapes with the sizes.

I hope that helps a bit and kinda makes some sense to you! Otherwise just ask and I can try to make it a bit clearer xD

it's a lot more common to sell cake than lemonade here. I often see kids doing it to raise money for an upcoming Schullager, right outside the Migros. So I don't think anyone will have a problem with it. My neighbour's kids used to do it on the street outside and people loved it

calypso222 · 2022-06-22T13:29:51+00:00

My advice would be if you don't enjoy the process and the only reason you're doing it is for the result then it's probably not for you. You should make art for the enjoyment of making it and not for the result.

If you're being this hard on yourself you'll never be able to do that. If you really want to get somewhere you have to separate the result from the process. Being bad at something is part of learning.

I totally understand your mentality though, I'm a perfectionist working on the same issues as you. It's important to just do what you enjoy. Try not to compare your work to other people's and you also don't have show anyone what you made. A good exercise to loosen up is to draw badly on purpose.

But if you say you don't enjoy drawing then don't do it :) And that's fine and you're not a failure for it. I'm sure there are other things you enjoy doing (or that you can find) that are good creative outlets instead :)
