i wanna say that you can draw comics while holding a full time job. I don't just mean doujinshi. I have a friend w/a published manga that has been officially localized in NA and they have a day job. I also have a full time job and I draw this much but I'm comics georg adn should not be counted

First three pages! I still need to write text for 2 and 3. But on page 1 you can see what I had in mind personally for my book. I think I need more decorative stickers 💭

* draws the same oc for the millionth time* Daaammnnn I freaking love drawiiinngg 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Another new artwork!🎮💚 Originally I was doodling nostalgic y2k stuff in my sketchbook, but now this will be the centerfold (!) page of our next @panels.bsky.social comic collab!😱 I'm FREAKING out! Centerfold is such an honor! I can't wait to hold the printed comic in my hands🥹 #MyArt #TraditionalArt

Sorry but I think I have the biggest, wrinkliest brain ever Y'all keep your A4 folders but I'll be collecting my art in a PHOTO ALBUM 💅

speaking of OCs, comic #3 is going to have some funny expressions if I do say so myself! #OCsky #OCcomic

You need friends who aren’t artists, lots of them, so you stay grounded with how other think of art outside your bubble

Anytime I see them I wish for all the artists exclusively making *popular franchises plastic doodads* genuinely from the bottom of my heart that they could succeed with what they ACTUALLY desire to make and not having to adjust themselves to the whims of popular media in order to survive 😔

GET LAUR TO 1,5K NEOWWWW

You can go back and fix the piece later/adjust it even after you "finished/posted it", that applies to sketchbook pages too. Hell, you can re-use elements it too. Didn't quite like the layout? The way you coloured it initially? Redo it. Who the hell is stopping you?

"Draw every day" is straight up bad advice Draw regularly, yes, but the hand is a muscle and like with any skill, rest days are critical. You need to rest and recharge, read/watch/play etc in order to keep those creative juices going If you try to force it then it's just gonna lead to burnout

btw for 50 bucks you can get your own neon graffiti chibi of whatever character you want (fanart or OC) 🤓 if you're interested take a chibi and add "neon graffiti" on your order and add "purrson" if you want it to be a cat person (and only if you want it to be cat person) ko-fi.com/lirhyapetitp...

CMYK-chan does NOT want to talk about her previous relationship with Pantone-san. Not because she's secretive but because Pantone-san is obnoxious and not over the breakup at all

draw whatever you want. release yourself from cringe. who has the time and space for that shit? have you seen outside? just draw stuff that makes you feel good. that's just like, the point of life man

You can also just start small. Yes you can make that comic or videogame or whatever but you can do a smaller scope in the beginning to test the waters. Instead of the bug magnum opus, begin with a prologue.

Make stuff YOU care about, not what you think others are interested in.

hey so this is blatant false information punishing people for doing the right thing. no, it was not a "grabber". it was a reputable survey site that discord has used previously for limited surveys. nothing can """grab""" information if you dont provide it, which an anonymous survey didnt ask for.

hi guys. crossposting.

tried out a new brushpack… i dig it 👀 #art #oc #OCsky

some of the best Pokemon games I've played are romhacks tbh

New followers welcome! I draw my comic OCs a lot and especially this bbygirl right here 💙

This is my gut feeling as well. They could just shove it down our throats and not gaf but survey results can be a good leverage to investors, shareholders and higher-ups. Remember companies are not a monolith. There's plenty of people working at them who don't have caught capitalism brainrot.

like last time (about crypto), pretty sure the discord survey about AI integration is something they'll use to show their shareholders to prove it's a bad investment. otherwise they wouldn't have had those super negative responses as choices. you should still be overwhelmingly mean about it though.

speaking of OCs, comic #3 is going to have some funny expressions if I do say so myself! #OCsky #OCcomic

My OCs are 300% self-indulgent creations of little guys I like to rotate in my head, if others like them, thats a bonus!!

"How to make ACTUAL interesting OCs" "How to make OCs people will care about!" dog if you can't love your own creations that's where you need to start, don't make brand new beings for other's approval. You'll never truly love them if they're tied to a stranger's perception.

Discord is trying to add new AI features to their platform. They're asking people to fill out a survey on how they feel about AI and what "value" it would add to their platform. Please take a few minutes to fill it out and tell them to fuck off with AI. discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

If your main motivation for making art is the attention it gets online, I don’t think you’re engaging with your craft in a productive or fulfilling way.

hey im seeing some people say they've been watching the videos of the ICE murder "over and over" and please do not do that. it is emotional self harm. even if you feel obligated to witness it, it is not useful to traumatize yourself

Frieren GOOD

Yes please! I can stop pestering the real one and it would be less expensive than the bandages for the scratches (For real though that sounds adorable)

trying watercolors again after 84 years 🫣 I have a lot of cool ideas for silent hill f fanart, but I feel that I lack the skill to put them on paper … #art #watercolors #wip #silenthillf

It’s my birthday!! 🎉 Thought I’d celebrate by sharing some my fave art 💖🎁

“bsky is boring!” 1) good 2) social media should not be a cornerstone of your everyday entertainment 3) I find new artists to follow every day and look at pretty art endlessly on here when I feel like it 4) get a tactile hobby where you create something with your hands 5) read book 6) walk outside

Just sent a report like this and also a report for illegal content under the EU digital safety act (DSA), very simple to do through through Apple store

Beat em' up! ☆ Gamer girl OC #originalart

The way media and corpos are phrasing the distaste for genAI as "fear" and/or "confusion" is honestly so patronizing. I'm not scared or confused. I am in active defiance.

At this point staying on this platform is causing reputation damage to yourself. Do you want to associate with this?!

In case anyone else saw this and got scared, 80% of this post is misinterpreted law and massive fear mongering. The AI training thing is real tho, so you should definitely leave twitter, but the rest of this is completely normal legal stuff that gets misinterpreted every year by non-lawyers.
