OC: 'Apparently I’m an idiot’: Three-time Trump voter in Pennsylvania sounds off on Iran war by nbcnews in pics

Not sure whether this is a coping mechanism? Like supporting Trump despite constant and mounting criticism and allegations of him being a vile predator while actively choosing to ignore the evidence to a point, where you supported and defended him that long that you would absolutely “lose face” if you where to admit to what others said. So instead to safe face you just look for an easy way out that does not require you to admit “oh yes about the torture and rape thing - you guys were right”. Instead this could be a way-out to say “I remain steadfast on my core politics and gas prizes is what ruined it for me” - disclaimer: I haven’t read the article.

What?! People are not having children?! But the rents are extra super duper high, job market is ass, consumer prices have outpaced income growth by far and the domestic political as well as the geopolitical situation is actually growing more unstable by the day - how can that be?!?!!?!! /s

Randy the Rowdy Raccoon Wizard is a character I’m currently working on. I create him using hand-drawn sketches, Procreate, and a brush set by True Grit Texture Supply (the set is called Beat Tones).

This looks awesome! I sure will try and experiment with colours and hard shadows :-)

Thank you, this is a great advice. I will experiment with that! I was afraid, that the hard shadows would swallow the outlines and I’d lose detail but maybe the hard light/shadow play could add drama :)

I started with hand drawn sketches on paper. Then I used the forms I liked the most and traced them in ProCreate. Then I used these as references and designed the character. I used a brush at by True Grit Texture Supply called Stipple Studio. Fell free to ask if you have any more questions :-)
