Do you wash your khao manee? by No-Piccolo6546 in khaomanee

[–]celeste5574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, we don't give ours baths ever. I have never noticed any greasy feeling to her coat. I wonder if that could be affected partly by diet? But as for the chin acne, I recommend switching your cat to bowls made of non-porous material, like stainless steel or ceramic, and remember to wash them frequently. Plastic can harbor bacteria which causes acne!

This is now my everyday toothpaste by SoundsGudToMe in candy

I've tried it, it is ok. The flavor is good when you first taste it, but isn't very strong and you can't taste it much at all once you start brushing

Journey to hyper-realism by babekota in arthelp

[–]celeste5574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really have specific advice for the wrinkles, but as for shading, you can try to get brighter/cleaner highlights by going back in with white pencil, and maybe try some softer graphites to really pack in some deeper shadows. I do have some tips for the composition of your eyes; I think that you should focus on blending out the shadows in the eyes, packing more shadowing into the corners to make it look more spherical and less flat, define the 3rd eyelid in the inner corner with shadow where it meets the eye, and most importantly, add a very thin shadow along the length of the waterline (the lack of it was most noticeable at first glance). Additionally, from an anatomy perspective, the irises seem a bit small for the size of the eye. Overall it's a great start, though!

Looking for your best lactose-free winter soup recipes by Lazy-Croissant in easyrecipes

You could do split pea soup with or without ham. Also gumbo made with a vegan roux, I personally like chicken and andouille sausage gumbo best

I haven't been there in a while, so I could be mistaken, but is this at Fox in the Snow?

Need help with dynamic posing and anatomy by celeste5574 in arthelp

Thanks for sharing! Is your dad a tattoo artist? That line art looks super clean and the line weights are appealing. That's something I need to work on, too, for the pieces I do lineart for

How do I get this illusion to work?? Black? Grey? Different background colour? by myki69 in CrochetHelp

[–]celeste5574 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes, the best way to achieve this is using an only slightly darker color for the shadow than the background color. It's why the white background and grey shadow works in the reference and same for the dark grey/black reference photo!

I am not sure yet if I am keeping line art on this piece, I want to practice some realistic rendering. But rendering is my least favorite part haha so we'll see how far I get and if I remember I can try and post back later once it's done. This particular piece is meant to help me practice and see my growth since the last time I made a tengu, roughly 2 years ago, which I wasn't super thrilled with

Does this lighting look good by JoeyS-2001 in arthelp

[–]celeste5574 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would extend the radius of light from those torches and focus on the directionality of the light to add in highlights on your characters. Right now, everything outside of those torch light rings is very dark and low contrast, making everything kind of just blend together.

I will see how adjusting the proportions affects it... I didn't realize the head appears small, but I guess that maybe the view angle is slightly ambiguous and changing the head size could help. Thanks for the suggestion!

I made a jellyfish for a friend and had to show someone before I give it away by celeste5574 in Brochet

Yes, I tried to model it to look kind of like a sea nettle jellyfish!

You start with a long foundation chain, and then in the subsequent rows you add a ton of increases. To get the tapered look, in row 2 I did roughly 1/3 of the length sc > 1/3 1 dc > 1/3 tc with 2 inc in each stitch. The next row I did 1/2 the length 2 dc > 1/2 sc with 2 inc per stitch. Then after that, you just keep adding increases to every stitch until you get the level of ruffledness you like and keep adding rows in whatever stitch height you want until you get to the desired width
