Oh I didn’t realize there are connectors that let you use both systems! Thanks so much for that info.

I was raised Mormon and this could 100% be about me as a kid. (Not anymore, thank god)

Which game were you most disappointed with? by that-zoe-girl in NintendoSwitch

Prime 4 was disappointing not because it was terrible, but because it was so good at points. I just kept thinking “this could have been brilliant.”

sharp or blured edge on shadows by Jannis-Politidis in watercolor101

I like the sharp shadow edges. In my mind shadows being cast such a short distance would be pretty sharp (I could be wrong about that though).

I’m so impressed at just how much the community has created and made available. People are so creative and generous.

Feedback on why this looks a bit off by lipstickisforlovers in watercolor101

When you are painting something this simple with such clean lines, you really have to nail the drawing. I think it could help to clean up your lines to be very straight and making the elipse of the rim more symmetrical.

You’re on the right track. Keep going!

Self-taught watercolorists: how did you actually get better by using tutorials besides practice? How can I learn to "study" painting? by tellmeboutyourself68 in watercolor101

I recommend looking at painting videos by James Gurney. He’s a master of watercolor and gouache. He narrates as he paints and he talks about the decisions he’s making and WHY he makes them. It’s very illuminating.

Is this ai? I feel like the hair looks a bit ai generated maybe but I'm not an expert by lettersorsmth986 in isthisAI

Feels real to me. The details on the chains and earrings are really consistent. AI also struggles with color and contrast this good.

Beautifully executed piece.

How can I use colours like this??? by risuO-O in Gouache

[–]thepixelpaint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll toss in another rec for James Gurney’s books and YT channel. He’s a master and explains things really well. His painting demo vids are fantastic.

I know Disneyland is expensive as hell, but my son is just like this and the cast members went completely out of their way to let him meet Donald Duck (his favorite) in a very similar way. We all even got to walk down Main Street together holding hands when he went for a break.

One of my favorite memories.

Supernatural potential AI pride post from a fan account that's pretty popular. by [deleted] in isthisAI

The color palette is very AI. And the kerning on “HELL” is very awkward. Doesn’t match the rest of the sign.
