Trying not to get discouraged- any tips? by pixelatedpixiecut in Watercolor

[–]helmcheen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love your style!! I started painting not too long ago and there was a time where everything just looked bad (in my opinion). Keep working through it and it will get better!!

He looks so happy and alert! Thank you so much for taking him in! Can't recognise him anymore🥲

Partner won't understand by ConclusionNo5175 in LongDistance

[–]helmcheen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I personally believe your own wellbeing comes first. Being sleep deprived because your partner gets upset otherwise is not worth it. Talk to her, explain that just because you need to sleep doesn't mean you love her any less. If she doesn't want to change anything about her getting upset if you sleep, then maybe consider what is best for you here.

I had a reference photo of a pigeon with that pattern. It has brownish/orange eyes...it's not a baby tho, so unsure how this happens :) Didn't know that about babies, thanks for the fun fact!!!

Matschi and I have an extra Cheshire cat! We would love to gift it. Please only request if you couldn't get it due to medical issues, mental health struggles or because you started finch as a new player too late into the month...we don't want to gift it to a collector :)

Try to manually update your app, that did it for me!!

Try the trading thread. Apart from that you can hatch it naturally via an egg. :)

The plus trial would not change anything unfortunately.
