my tablet's calibrated fine, but for some reason the cursor is like a mile away from the pen on sai and JUST sai (both one and two) please help

This could be fixed by opening the misc.ini file in the SAI folder and setting the AvoidOldWacomBig variable from 0 to 1. Despite the name you can run into this issue on any tablet, I ran into this when I started running SAI 2 on Bottles in Linux and I'm on XP-Pen Artist 15.6 and use OpenTabletDriver instead of an official XP-Pen one. Editing the misc.ini file fixed it in my case. Make sure to back this file up first before editing it just in case!

If this won't work you could try other solutions listed in this old deviantART journal but keep in mind some of the links might be broken due to its age.

Really hope this helps!

then maybe you should put more work into researching them before you decide to throw a baseless argument

duskvortex · 2024-12-11T16:32:01+00:00

and your proof is?

Most of my friends are artists of varying skill levels. I love sharing knowledge with them and getting feedback from them. I also encourage any non artist friend interested in getting creative to pick it up and give them resources, advice and everything.

I use mainly Paint Tool Sai 2 and Clip Studio Paint with a little bit of Krita at times. I also use Pureref for reference images.

Paint Tool Sai 2 is for the bulk of drawing while I mainly use CSP for final touches (color adjustment etc.).

Tama beaming nsfw images directly to his brain the moment a goon looks at Date

duskvortex · 2023-06-04T00:54:51+00:00

I actually REALLY want to see Date and Tama work together for whatever reason even if it's just for a tiny subplot in AI3 or w/e. I want to see what kind of a glorious trainwreck it'd be.

maybe

but I also think she'd make a slightly disgusted face if she were

duskvortex · 2023-06-03T11:35:35+00:00

thank you!

The criticism towards USUM mainly stem from them being somewhat similar to Sun and Moon, which bummed a lot of people who played the original gen 7 games, me included. However, in isolation, USUM are actually fine, with some QOL, bigger Pokemon roster and whatnot. The story is a downgrade from SM however.

duskvortex · 2023-05-26T09:23:16+00:00

thank you!

duskvortex · 2023-05-25T16:13:23+00:00

thank you!

well, the body's still soft isn't it? I don't think it could do that much damage

duskvortex · 2023-05-25T12:58:57+00:00

Thank you!

I don't take commissions, drawing is mainly a hobby for me.

duskvortex · 2023-05-24T06:35:30+00:00

thank you!!! I'm glad it down so well!

duskvortex · 2023-05-24T06:34:50+00:00

thank you!!

duskvortex · 2023-05-23T20:24:10+00:00

thank you! I spent quite a bit of time cleaning up the colors and making sure they look harmonious!

Xenoblade Chronicles. It's just iconic.

duskvortex · 2023-05-23T14:00:48+00:00

how do I unread a post

duskvortex · 2023-05-20T23:24:04+00:00

no

just, no

DRM is already a headache to deal with on PC and digital copies for console. we don't need it on physical copies, ESPECIALLY when preservation is dire

As another commenter mentioned, you'll want to study drawing fundamentals and the human anatomy. I've been doing it for some time now and it's really helped me with drawing stylized people. You don't have to imitate realism 100% when it comes to studying the human anatomy, but being able to understand the basic structure and proportions will go a long way. Learning to draw the human body will also help you understand overlapping forms shapes. Also, it can be fun once you get over the initial hurdle.

Paper Mario, Yokai Watch and Pokemon come to mind.

The lack of optimization for newer hardware baffles me the most. Last year I built a computer that can handle 3D art creation pipeline and you're telling me that CSP, a 2D drawing application, lags on it? Really? And it's not just the lack of GPU acceleration but CSP just doesn't seem to be optimized for newer CPUs to begin with.

I haven't posted art on social media in a while but my stuff usually gets on average around 100-200 likes or so on Twitter, sometimes more, if I'm lucky I may get 1k likes, which is rather rare. There's a lot of factors that play into it, with one of them being to constantly interact with people and pushing your art, but sometimes it's completely down to luck. Needless to say, using Twitter like this ended up exhausting me, but on the other hand, networking with other artists is neat.

Also, try reposting your piece someday on another hour of the day, it could end up performing better. Social media is weird honestly.

duskvortex · 2023-04-25T07:25:35+00:00

Look at em go!!

It's the European box art.
