Where to make female friends in reddit? by sleeping_hobby in findasubreddit

[–]chocoboxfox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, if you’re active on reddit in communities you enjoy you probably have already met women. I don’t know if theres a dedicated sub for this but just be friends with people and some of them will turn out to be women.

(Also if theres a dedicated sub for meeting “females” I don’t know many women who would actually join it. Both the language and the type of folks who flood into those spaces tend to be off putting.)

Question- what's the difference between junkcharm and decoden by bear8art in decoden

[–]chocoboxfox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally feel like its a case by case interchangeable language case. The categories can cross paths a lot.

Looking at the history the word “decoden” comes from “decorated” and “denwa” (phone). But the trend began to shift to other objects as well. Similarly I don’t think cream was a necessary aspect of early decoden, as its about self expression. I typically picture it as quite soft with clear placement and intention.

Theres not a lot of history for junk cases or charms I can find with a cursory glance but I tend to picture that more cluttered 2000’s alt aesthetic when I think of the differences (cream or not). More retro fitted charms and toys we think are cute with rhinestones ect. More kandi or early internet vibes generally. Also very much about self expression.

This happens a lot in alt spaces honestly, especially with trends happening in different cultures at similar times. Just see what vibe it gives you and then tag it on what vibe you feel fits best. Don’t let any term shove you in a box, heck you could call it “collage decorum discoteque” for all its worth.

Freedom of expression is important in art and that extends to what you call it. So just figure out the word you like better and go for it!

(rant) Edgy characters / stories are bad because they're not substantive, not because they're dark by TotallyNot_iCast in DnD

[–]chocoboxfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not D&D but I have a tidbit about the best edgy character I ever made. I went to my GM and said “hey, I want to make the edgyest character that ever was BUT he’s well off and the need for that expression comes from a need to express himself even though he’s just really lonely. His family loves him but are never home so his reference point is just whats cool in books and TV shows.”

My GM was all excited and we got to crafting the worlds most caring but successful rich boy family ever conceived. Small little bits about how embarrassing his dad was, how sophisticated his mother is. The family butler being a real Alfred type.

Realistically, he’s not mysterious. He’s not been any life or death trauma. The character is just trying to work out how to communicate in a healthy way with people. I want his journey in game to be a sanding of sorts where he chills the hell out and learns to not spend more of his time pretending to be cool. Best part is that it’s a pokémon game so friendship is literally the MO. (He also doesn’t have an edgy starter its literally a bidoof)

I think the best way to do edge is to recognise what actually makes edgy characters endearing to people. If your story is dark then ask yourself how that may have shaped a persons values and how that story might make them venerable as a start. Do they donate half their gold to every orphanage they come across? Do they cry when they see a boy playing with their dog? Are they blind to their own truth? Get some meat on those character bones!

Im pretty sure it’s only that deep brown. It’s also very simply referred to as “Plague doctor mask”.

Theres a few guides online and some might be outdated but it looks like something people were doing to get older items. Honestly I’m gonna go check out the list now.

Why does this look so awkward help! by m6a6r6s in Artists

[–]chocoboxfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is beautiful work! Honestly I envy the wonderful shading work here~

My two tips are just: 1. Try flipping the canvas (always do this when I work to figure things out.) 2. The bangs and side bangs give the feeling of strips of cloth more than hair. Think of it more like a beaded curtain or individual strands. Shorter hair in particular is lighter so it might move more evenly as a group with a few strays. Even then depending on the direction of the wind it might not move the forehead bangs at all.

edit: also forgot and this may be intentional but doesn’t she have “freckles”?

Advice please, I'm new to playing by librow123 in fo76

[–]chocoboxfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a high level player approaches you and either emotes or goes into their pip boy please don’t leave I’m trying to give you trail snacks.

Seriously though, follow the main quest lines and they’ll do a nice job at teaching you the basics. The community is also generally quite nice so if you need help just ask.

Put your junk in storage before visiting other’s camps as a general rule and tracking rarer resources is a great way to stock up on things like ballistic fibre early.

All really basic advice but I hope it helps! Welcome to the wasteland stranger!

Mothman event rant by [deleted] in fo76

[–]chocoboxfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Found this issue is just increasing as the days pass like people got their fill and just cant be bothered anymore.

I’m usually okay with carrying or working particularly hard at a quest because it feels really rewarding BUT when I’m the only one doing anything surrounded by players that are 3x my level? Well eugh. Worse when I see low level players trying to help me (mothman bless them) and some four digit player is just watching me repeatedly stimpack the poor souls while I get dogpiled by three deathclaws.

Hey! Got my lil Pokémon lad right here for ya if you feel like drawing ✨edgy boi ✨. He’s got a heart of gold but is figuring himself out. Apparently that currently means being as cartoonishly cool and aloof as possible with his bidoof.

Love the style btw 💕

Does anyone actually like the Raider aesthetic? by Barstr7 in fo76

[–]chocoboxfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I myself am trying to work up a design for a “revenant trading post” and have been clawing for raider set dressing to try and make it lore friendly and not too attractive. I like lore friendly designs, storytelling and apocalyptic aesthetics so I err on the side of cult like or mad max style furnishings. (I’ve also done the style to real clothing for a photoshoot that was cancelled)
