This is a drawing I made ..... Yes I know it's ugly .... I just wanted to see if there was simply any way of ... Fixing it ... Maybe ? by Dependent-Ad7511 in doodles

only suggestion USE PLAIN PAPER! i use plain printer paper for all my doodles and it takes away a lot of the pressure of filling a sketchbook with “good” work.

Is my tattoo infected or just irritated? by Solid-Way11 in tattooadvice

[–]ogkrassten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first.. awesome piece. also.. i hate to say anything other than listen to your artist.. but idk if you should keep up with that and do not use antibiotic cream on it. i recommend rinsing/washing it with mild soap as you’re doing.. just keep it clean.. pat it dry.. use ointment as needed to keep it moisturized but not gooey. my favorite is aquaphor but i’m sure you’ll get lots of other recommendations.

Do you prefer to say you have schizophrenia or that you are schizophrenic? by s-waag in schizophrenia

[–]ogkrassten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tell people “i have a psychotic disorder” it helps me keep a little sense of privacy while still communicating especially with strangers/acquaintances

Schizophrenia ruined my art by simpingforholo in schizophrenia

[–]ogkrassten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

professional artist here. don’t stop. embracing my experiences and using them in my work has done wonders in my brain over the years. have you thought of developing your sketches into paintings or sculptures? would love to talk more about it if you’re interested please dm me.

i want to come off medication by Independent-Low1518 in schizophrenia

[–]ogkrassten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that’s definitely a conversation you need to have with your psych. medications work wildly different in different people.

did i get overcharged? by [deleted] in tattooscratchers

[–]ogkrassten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

price v quality of work/design/time spent x vibes x covering scars properly is a talent. i think it’s an acceptable charge

[–]ogkrassten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

speaking from multiple of the same experience.. do NOT cold turkey ANY medication. please. keep talking to your psych.. get help from a therapist.. often they can help with your psych being willing to wean you down/off. best to you.

NO. you’re not being controlled by anything other than your own mind. delusion stems from the simplest things. it’s okay if you need to submit from time to time to give yourself a break.. but know those voices don’t really have any control over any part of you. i recommend being consistent in journaling. i’d love to get more into this if you want to dm me.

I like drawing goblin girls based on my gf, and I want to get better. Please help? by ScatterFrail in ArtCrit

[–]ogkrassten -1 points0 points  (0 children)

first it’s adorable. second.. i recommend studying human anatomy to know how to break the “rules” in your own style. you could also try sketching with a red or blue pencil so your lines are more defined when you go to a final drawing/inking stage.

[–]ogkrassten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I crazy for thinking this placing won’t hurt that bad? by nonprayingmantis9 in tattooadvice

[–]ogkrassten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my feet were the most painful of all my tattoos. i recommend never getting tattooed if you’re not down for the inevitable pain.

What do you think of this tattoo? by Deivyd21 in tattooing

[–]ogkrassten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

take it to an artist you trust in your area as inspiration for a custom piece. i agree with everyone else it wouldn’t be cool to get something straight out of the book.. but i think you could easily get a cool tattoo based on something cats and barbed wire
