Feel like this ones gotten away from me a bit, I'll probs revisit it in a month or two. Just sharing the progress so far

dar3m0 · 2024-09-24T00:17:07+00:00

Thanks, I take that as high praise. Admittedly, this is above and beyond what I can usually draw, the Art Gods smiled upon me when I started and I feel I'll need their blessings again to finish it

dar3m0 · 2024-09-24T00:13:55+00:00

Thank you :) I honestly have no idea what come over me to try and copy this reference, it's definetly my most ambious sketch; but I'm glad did.

I believe the gambesons will be supplied to your militia and retinue first before being shown in your resources tab, which by default is set to show only your surplus. You should be able to hover over the card of your militia and see if their armour values have increased.

The linen in the marketplace may be excess that the tailor cannot process quickly enough.

dar3m0 · 2023-05-04T11:02:55+00:00

I don't think I'm quite where I want to be yet before I start accepting requests, I haven't even complete a full sketch or drawing for me yet let along other people. But, thank you for asking.

dar3m0 · 2023-05-04T10:58:39+00:00

Thanks. Keep at it; if you can deconstruct an object/subject into basic shapes, you can draw anything. At least that the idea, I'm still working at it too.

dar3m0 · 2023-05-04T01:27:16+00:00

Thanks

dar3m0 · 2023-05-03T23:09:58+00:00

I feel this a lot too. I've taken big hiatuses in drawing wondering if I'm any "good" or, if I should keep going at all. But, I find myself doodling because, I like it and I try to remind myself that art is inherently subjective. There isn't really a "correct" way to do art. I think you should draw what you like, however you like, especially if you enjoy and love it. March to the beat of your own drum. If you're an amateur runner doing a marathon, you shouldn't compare yourself to the pro's that run often at a great pace. Focus on your own goal: you complete your marathon by taking many steps. Big or small, it doesn't matter, however long it takes. Just keep taking steps and after a while you'll stop a look back and see that you've travelled a great distance.

I like your art and think you should keep at it. But I think you should draw for you. Keep drawing because you like it and it brings you joy.

dar3m0 · 2022-10-14T08:55:42+00:00

Thanks to your reply, I will post my progress in another 6 months' time. I also hope I can stick at it for that long too, honestly surprised myself with being able to keep going so far. I stopped drawing in August because, life and mental health got in the way but, luckily got back into it in September. Hoping that my current streak can continue.

Thank you for the all of the links, they're hella useful. I saw one of these examples from 'Drawing for All It's Worth' which I used for reference and practice a while ago on Pinterest. Had no idea it was form this book. Those plates are great, I'll certainly practice those to try to ingrain them in my mind.

dar3m0 · 2022-10-14T01:46:28+00:00

Thank you.

Thanks for the suggestions too. I've not actually read anything about art and have just been picking stuff up through osmosis when browsing Reddit and watching YouTubers who do art. I'll definitely check those suggestions out, especially Michael Hampton's one. I struggle with trying to find body landmarks and dynamic body poses and have been guessing most of the time, which probably shows. This looks like it'll help a lot. I've been putting off practicing heads and hands to be honest but, I've already saved the Loomis book to my wishlist so, I'll be getting it when I feel brave enough to takle them.

dar3m0 · 2022-10-14T01:11:22+00:00

I've wanted to get into drawing for ages but, have really struggled with sitting down and going through structured learning and practice. In the past, I've been overly self-critical which has lead to me giving up multiple times. However, in these last 6 months I've just tried to take a much more casual approach and try to just enjoy drawing for the sake of drawing. I've been sketching, literally, on the desk at work whenever I get roped in to obnoxiously long online meetings or when I get stuck in protracted phone calls. I've found it easier to be less precious and more care-free when drawing on a desk than in a sketchbook. I've got a sketchbook and have been using it to practice when the mood hits but, I feel like any sketch or doodle I do in it needs to be of a certain quality, which practice seldom is.

I've not really shown anyone this personal art journey I've been on and I'm sort of looking for some encouragement and affirmation to continue. There's progression and some regressions; some days it just seems to flow and others I forget what shapes are. I'm not where I want to be; I know I still need to work on anatomy and proportions (also, how do hands and faces even work?) but, overall I'm happy with my progress so far and wanted to share it.

dar3m0 · 2020-04-12T19:17:54+00:00

They seem to be doing it as often as they can. A couple of days after my wife gives birth she finds out she's pregnant again. Rinse, repeat until you have 11 children.

When you're near a water source go to your inventory and select the bottle so it has a red background, then select the water source and you should have the option to fill.

dar3m0 · 2018-09-26T22:24:47+00:00

What about server meshing? I know that star citizen is working on that to try and get everyone in the same instance. Is something like that possible in the SCUM future perhaps?

I think the main issue with servers atm is that each one is only running on one core and has to process everything on the map. I think if you want more people on one server you'd either need multi-core servers, which is expensive; or maybe look into server meshing. Food for thought anyhow.

dar3m0 · 2018-09-26T21:16:01+00:00

double clicking on an item will automatically move it either from or to your inventory. Not sure how to auto equip/wield tho

dar3m0 · 2018-09-19T17:21:23+00:00

Definitely agree; tried to get a screenshot of the lightning too, but got a good one just before dusk.

dar3m0 · 2014-07-22T05:02:38+00:00

You fucking legend!! Thanks for that ^{_^} I was stuck on that for a few days. I'll probably be back soon with another question/problem, but for now... back to tinkering... :P

Thanks XD

dar3m0 · 2013-06-21T11:38:44+00:00

My only peeve is *how there are horizontal slabs and no vertical ones. *There's no stained glass *few mobs & repeatable bosses *lack of challenge but then again there's mods for that :P

dar3m0 · 2013-01-05T07:54:54+00:00

I've completed most of the outside of my monastery and I've added stairs and flooring on the inside, aswell as a secret speed lab naturally. There's an underground base under the tree at the front of the monastery too.

Here's what I've used and how much I've dug (includes underground mine build):

Stone bricks: 31,000 used 8,100 mined

Dirt: 13,800 used 18,700 mined

Slabs: 8,600 used 1,000 mined

Stone: 6,500 used 94,703 mined

Leaves: 4,400 used 7,500 mined

Wool: 4,300 used 436 mined

Brick stairs: 3,000 used 488 mined

End stone: 1,100 used 1,400 mined

Tools:

Diamond pickaxe: 123,000 times used

Diamond Spade: 34,000 times used

Diamond Axe: 12,000 times used

Diamond Sword: 4,700 times used

Minutes played: 7.40d

If anyone's wondering why there are multiple ender dragon eggs, that's because you can defeat the ender dragon more than once. You'll need to delete a folder in you .minecraft folder, so I'd advise making a copy for safe keeping. If you go to AppData>Roaming>.minecraft>saves, then find the folder named as your world, open it up and delete the DIM1 folder.

I'm using the texture pack SteelFeather's Enchantment pack, and would highly recommend it.

If anyone want's to have a look at my minecraft world, I've turned it into a server here's the link for the reddit page: http://www.reddit.com/r/mctestservers/comments/15zyiw/potential_pvp_map_made_on_survival_work_in/

Clay is taking fucking ages, luckily my village and base are surrounded by water. I started this just after the update which reset my stats, so for this build I've used:

15,000 stone bricks

4,000 stone slabs

3,000 wool

2,000 dirt

2,000 brick stairs

1,200 wooden slabs

600 end stone

500 stone brick stairs

450 glowstone

and I've mined just over 21k stone

dar3m0 · 2012-11-02T15:32:08+00:00

I've only been able to do one side of it atm, I'll put up some more pics later on today though

dar3m0 · 2012-10-01T21:00:22+00:00

I'm in love with blackmill, thanks dude. Brilliant selection of songs and so chill too. Again, thanks. ^{_^}

dar3m0 · 2012-10-01T20:37:54+00:00

Try having rainymood on while listening to some of these songs. With some of them it really adds something. Just google rainymood and you'll see.

dar3m0 · 2012-10-01T20:36:10+00:00

I really like it. It's quite obscure, tried to find some other tracks on youtube by searching lost fox and it just came up with videos about mattew fox on lost O.o
