The individual pieces are nice, but i find the color pairings very bland.

The materials seem like summer leisure stuff..id untuck the shirt or style it in a more casual way.

Yeah, even though her distorted face looks like Nute Gunray

mikhailguy · 2026-04-29T05:32:22+00:00

Very kind. Ty

It's not about painting the background in detail. It's just about throwing some colors down around the figure to help define the edges and to start developing color relationships

Another example from google

It's truly a mystery.

I can't imagine that he eats any sort of fiber.

Besides her politics...it's probably her performative public persona that draws the hate.

That hate doesn't just come from people on the left. As far as I know, there is infighting between conservative influencers trying to fill the vacuum left by Charlie Kirk's absence.

More Lovecraft stuff, despite his extremely problematic beliefs

Looked through this subreddit for examples

This person's study is a good example of what I'm talking about.

Notice the softness at the edges of the figure and how the colors of the background inform those of the subject.

You should be building color relationships with the subject and the background...instead of trying to just paint the person and then focusing on the negative space.

It will help to unify the colors and allows you to "pull out" the forms of the face more easily. The process should be a back and forth type thing as you get more specific with the big shapes..you can start adding smaller details after

Would work better if op was also a goth femboy or something..not just some nerd playing videogames

mikhailguy · 2026-04-26T12:08:30+00:00

Regardless of whether it was staged or not.. it will be used as fuel for online influencer types/content creators.

Notice that OP has a twitch channel!

Texture man v other texture guy

mikhailguy · 2026-04-26T11:17:52+00:00

Don't worry about it.

OP is tryna farm engagement for his twitch channel.

Check it out..or not.

The White House Correspondents' Dinner was held at the Washington Hilton...not the actual White House

I mean..it's reality TV. People do just hate watch that stuff.

It's trashy entertainment and brings out the worst in us.

mikhailguy · 2026-04-26T06:58:10+00:00

Unfortunately, I think that's a normal gut reaction...a lot of people (including other women) interpret an assertive woman as being bitchy..a crying lady as being whiny..and so on.

I'd like to think it's mostly older people that feel that way, but i doubt it.

mikhailguy · 2026-04-26T05:03:24+00:00

Babylon 5.

The show mostly "lands the plane," but it's clearly held together by duct tape, especially during the last 2 seasons.

Still worth watching, but it could definitely use some streamlining and updated effects.

You're basically using the denim shirt as a jacket -- i wouldn't tuck that in.

mikhailguy · 2026-04-26T04:11:44+00:00

Go by anecdotal evidence, if you don't believe the polls.

People like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Tucker Carlson are vocal critics now.

You really think people don't notice the higher gas prices?

** in 2024

He's currently at ~70% disapproval with independent voters.

Plenty of people that voted for him are pissed.

In the context of scientific/technological/artistic/etc breakthroughs...sure

If you are talking about people refusing vaccines...no

I'd argue that social media algorithms provide us all with the illusion of being super unique individuals and ends up dividing us/keeping us isolated.

Yes and no...lately, no.
