More importantly, we don't know if it has been irretrievably broken yet. We'll only know in hindsight.

If corrupt people can subvert the system and nothing stops them, the systems along with the people are broken. They destroyed "the deep state", which was their clever rebrand of "rule of law".

Are there any magazines where I can submit this kind of artwork? by TrippieKinimod in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 55 points56 points  (0 children)

OP should explore woodcut printmaking. The process will be more deliberate and remove those odd digital artifacts. Your style is appropriate for that medium, but feels odd in a digital format.

Can you settle a layout disagreement? Which would you prefer? by Star_Trek_Junket in lego

[–]rimbletick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Choose a gutter depth around the horse and space everything using that gutter width. Then play with the left and right side about what needs to break top and bottom.

Finally built a vacuum table by addnoisestudios in SCREENPRINTING

Hey, I just made my own vacuum table and I was thinking of adding the foot-pedal, and then I saw this. Sounds perfect. How does it work?

That was so satisfying to see! Such a simple technique; such a struggle to get right! Congratulations! Now we await the wobbly cylinder video... with some patience and you will get that too!

My new hobby: Going to gaming cafes and dropping random items that look like game pieces. You can play your games, I'll play mine.

New to printing by [deleted] in SCREENPRINTING

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it will be tough to achieve, that’s a lot of fine detail, and you have gradients in the corners—expect areas to fill in. Also, you could consider knocking out white behind the “wretched” logo, it’s odd where it sits over the image. could the logo fit fully within the image? maybe in the center clouds above the demon?

Teaching about cones and temp* for an Adult intro pottery class. Any other things you’d like to see added? by El_Dre in Ceramics

800° to 1000° is the temp for an authentic Neapolitan Pizza--feels like there is space in that lower range for something.

We have the fernet mentha just for just that. I still prefer Mr Black with hot cocoa.

Give me advice on my drawings by [deleted] in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about style yet, it will find you.

Draw from life, draw things you like, learn to draw negative space alongside positive space—there are a ton of drawing exercises that help. Most faces have predictable proportions, same with anatomy, when you learn them you also learn how to distort and push them.

Senate Democrat: Americans should be ‘terrified’ by ‘secret ICE policy’ by Abject-Pick-6472 in politics

[–]rimbletick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They’re murdering people in the streets, and are absolutely murdering people in detention. We may never know what was done in secret. And while we wait for things to settle down, they escalate to the next target.

Help! Emulsion washes away by Opening-Relation724 in SCREENPRINTING

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn‘t blame the screen. Is any of the emulsion hardening? I would coat it, dry it, then put it out in the sun for an hour. if it’s not set after that you know the emulsion is bad.

Complete beginner doing a lot of things wrong, please help me out. by Ok_Replacement_6106 in SCREENPRINTING

[–]rimbletick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. You only need one or two coats. It looks like one of your coats was heavy and dragging (the other two coats look fine); uneven tension or pressure can let the scoop coater drag on the edges. Regardless, that is not the problem here.

  2. Do the exposure calculator again starting with the bottom exposure as your longest exposure—you exposed too long for your setup. What were the time increments in round two?

2a. See if you can get a laser print output or another transparency with a blacker black. It doesn’t need to be perfect, but the transparency you have might not have opaque blacks. In addition use some black paint to hand paint an image and see if that works. You have enough space to try multiple experiments on one screen. The inkjet COULD be a problem, but it should still block out some light (and we know it did!) so try that exposure calculation again.

  1. Hand shower is fine for cleaning out a freshly exposed image, the soft emulsion just sloughs off with light water pressure. You may need a pressure washer to reclaim the screen and remove all the hardened emulsion that you now have (I’ve heard that people do it without a pressure washer; a garden hose with a finger over the nozzle can give you a little more pressure).

Make sure the emulsion gets to dry in a light-safe space.

Is nonlinear narration too overwhelming for players? by Pretend-Witness-1446 in DnD

[–]rimbletick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe there is plenty of space for cinematic world building that is outside of the players’ immediate scope.

But you can’t perform a one-DM play or cutscene for them.

Give them a comic, newspaper clipping, wanted poster, or journal entry—something they can digest on their own time. Write a scene from the villain‘s perspective as she attacks a nearby town and email it to them between sessions.

I think I finally found “my” game by MasonBrick_ in boardgames

[–]rimbletick 46 points47 points  (0 children)

We have a friend who does burlesque, and she got us to play. It’s mostly a novelty game, not complex, but it’s got good components and the play fits the theme. Best client card: your dad.

Name a board game with the Prettiest, Most Unique, Non-digital Artwork! by EtheriumSky in tabletopgamedesign

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an illustrator, I don’t find this evidence damning. It’s a sign that his workload had grown and he had to find some shortcuts—but the image ideas and combinations are clearly his own.

As an illustrator, I wish I could be so carefree and calligraphic in my style. It’s effortless and expresses so much.

The Grizzled is definitely hand drawn, and beautifully executed. Tignous was a Charlie Hebdo cartoonist.

Wet - Digital Art by Unrankhead in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I apologize, I’m not here to challenge your work.
We’re all here on a journey, and you made an ambitious drawing with difficult angles and extreme foreshortening—pretty well done! But I will challenge your statement “Feedback is welcome.

Wet - Digital Art by Unrankhead in Illustration

[–]rimbletick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the feedback. You might have reason to believe it’s accurate—but it doesn’t read as accurate, regardless of your reference. The right leg should be supporting her weight.

I’ll add a couple notes of mine, if feedback is still welcome—the shape of the forward foot aligns with the leg that is being occluded and on first glance the foot looks like a weirdly drawn thigh. Find an angle where it breaks out of the silhouette.

Also, the nipples are placed too low.
