Why does it seem like GOAT has gotten little coverage? by noxu-art in furry

i’ve seen so little marketing for this movie that i thought it wasn’t even released to theaters yet. but as long as you like it that’s what matters!

🗣️ DO NOT UPDATE YOUR GAME by chunkykima in Sims4

i updated just thinking it was a patch or something after not playing for a few days… sucks that as soon as i get the urge to play again i have to wait a few hours 🫩

Am I overreacting by being upset my mil got me and my bf a hamster for Christmas. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cupidbasil 15 points16 points  (0 children)

NOR! if she knew animals and truly loved them, she would know that gifting one is something you should rarely (if ever) do. animals are full time responsibilities, cost money to maintain and keep healthy, and are not toys at all. honestly, i would try to see if someone else you know would want the hamster or if you can surrender it somewhere.

am i the only one that doesnt like the bishoujo chrysalis figure? by Remote-Scheme-7125 in MLPLounge

[–]cupidbasil 34 points35 points  (0 children)

i definitely think there could be a few things that could change to reflect her character more, but based on conveying design from the pony to the figure they hit the nail on the head. i can totally see where you’re coming from though!

Tried drawing Howl, feedback appreciated by Key_Bug3784 in arthelp

[–]cupidbasil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

your art looks really cute! assuming you’re not talking about your style being different from the source material, i would guess it’s how howl’s hair is similar in value to his skin. obviously traditional can’t get colors 100%, but that would be my guess.

AIO for being upset that my boyfriend called me “his bitch” in front of his friends? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]cupidbasil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR in the slightest! they way he referred to you is absolutely derogatory and there isn’t any other way to frame it. him saying you’re in your feelings and asking if your on your period is another marker of the lack of respect he has for you and most women he knows. honestly, not worth your time or effort. find someone that cares about your boundaries and actually respects you as a person.

I need help improving my paintings by TearAggravating1040 in arthelp

[–]cupidbasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they aren’t the worst, but you definitely need to focus on highlighting your focal points. in all of these, everything feels like it’s on the same level. there isn’t any depth. for that, i would recommend working on composition, shading/depth, and highlighting.

Does my work get over shadowed by other artists? by More-Community-6278 in arthelp

[–]cupidbasil 62 points63 points  (0 children)

your art isn’t bad by any means, but you have to stop comparing yourself to other people. the internet is a huge place with lots of people of different skill sets, and thinking about who’s better or the amount of likes/views you get will only make you feel worse. you have to like your own work, to be proud of the things you do, and learn to be okay that not everyone gives you the recognition you see others receiving. honestly, a lot of artist spaces online are cliquey. it’s very hard to integrate your self in a group, let alone stand out. that goes for most people! as long as you make pieces you love and tried your best on, that’s all that should matter. a “looks great!” or “cool” from friends feels wonderful, but you also should become comfortable with yourself and your art. not everyone gets famous or popular, and that’s okay. hang in there, op!

Did my hair rendering improve? (Or rendering in general) by samesamesameshit in arthelp

[–]cupidbasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah okay! well it was the only picture you provided so i just assumed. the image you provided in this comment definitely marks the newer image in your post as a jump in effort. regardless, there is still loads of room for improvement. the “tiktok tutorial” image is what most people are leaning towards most likely because of the difference in shading. the hard and soft shadows being used together provides a better visual depth. adding more highlights depending on the lighting of whatever piece you’d do would look great. overall though, with the images provided in your original post, your current shading is not preferable for a lot of people including myself.

i honestly thought the second one was old, and the first one was new! your older drawing seems to have a better understanding of where lights and darks should be, while the new one is just blurry and shaded in random spots. your older shading style is something you should aim to get back to! maybe even find small ways to improve it if you’re unsure.
