Keep on Drawing!
I have been watching lots of art tutorials to improve my art recently, the more I watch the more I realise how much I don't know about art, especially anatomy or drawing a realistic face. I have only started to recently learnt and applied cool colors to counter the warm colors in my art.. Anyways it's never too late to learn these kinda things, hopefully you guys will start to see better art from me for now on. It's more important than ever for us to keep on drawing. And keep on improving! Here are some art that I quite like and wanna show them off.
Spooky Mall Experience (Did I get pranked?)
Hello everybody, I got a story to tell. This happened to me last week, it was around 10pm when I went to the local mall for some last minute grocery shopping, our supermarkets don't close until 11pm so I still had an hour to buy all the nori sheets and vegetables needed for a sushi lunch the next day. So I went to the supermarket and there was hardly anyone there, thats the way I want it! Thats why I always go so late so I don't need to deal with people. I picked up my groceries and was about to check out... then suddenly all the lights turned off. Maybe the power went out? I stood in the dark for a whole minute waiting for the lights to come back on, but nothing. So I took my phone out and used the torch. I walked around and couldn't find anybody, where did everyone go? There were still a few people around just a few minutes ago.. did they close early today? Is it 11pm already? Did I get locked in?! I found the exit but all the cashiers were gone, they must've closed early! But how
Big Smash Bros Art Collab
EDIT: Its FINISHED! Here it is :D Lets do a big SMASH BROS art collab. Every artist draw one character! (Unless that space has more than one character like Pokemon Trainer or Pyra/Mythra for example). Make it full body as well. Comment for which character you want, claim it before its too late. Art due on the 7th of September 2023. This is the layout of the final artwork. As you can see, I have laid out where each character go to give you guys a basic idea of what it will look like. Please look at your character's bubble, this may give you an idea of what you may need to draw. And try to not leave too much blank space, fill up the bubble if you can, just so there aint too many blank spaces in the final artwork. If your bubble is slightly blocked by another character's bubble on the bottom right for example, draw the character's head in a position that is not blocked! CHARACTER LIST: (⭐️=Claimed ❤️ =Finished) ❤️⭐️1) Mario - @Nicostud916 ❤️⭐️2) Donkey Kong - @SunbeamStone ❤️⭐️3) Link
Layers Layers Layers
Ok so confession, I don't like using too many layers.. I tend to merge layers a lot so I don't have to deal with layers. What if I need to go back and fix some mistakes? Well, just don't any mistakes! No I joke. Well I just draw over it and fix it that way. And when I say I don't like using too many layers, I mean I DO use layers. But I just keep it around 2 to 3 layers. Usually one for lines, one for colors and one for background. Sometimes when I am happy with it, I would even merge them together and just draw over it. So why don't I like layers? Well layers just gives me headache, I don't wanna have a hundred layers and I gotta back and find which layer I did what on, especially if you are like me and don't name the layers. Am I crazy? What do you guys do? I feel like most of the artists I know uses many layers. And I think that artists are like onions, we have many layers.

I draw fan art that I'm not necessarily a fan of:
But it's for someone who is:
My brother really likes Yang from RWBY, so I drew him a picture trying to put Exactly what he wanted, all of his ideas, suggestions and all. I know what RWBY is, I think it's really funny, but I would consider the fan art to be his. It was made for him.
For Amaterasu I knew a bit from playing a little of the game, and from researching her. I added a necklace based on the different power/charms she seemed to have because I thought it was a good detail. She was like fan art of fan art though, because I enjoyed her design from other creations. Even after that she was made for a friend of mine.
Or For Practice:
I also drew Ahri, whom I don't mind as a character. Truthfully the 'fan', portion of that one was because I wanted to be as good as the BLIZZARD artists and have something that stands out like theirs. I wanted my Ahri to be as good as Kienan Lafferty's Ahri. (Didn't work, but it was worth a shot).
My Thoughts:
I feel that my pictures get more interesting when I know the character well: Daenerys was like that for me. I chose to make her hair piece and dress the way I liked because I found it plausible that she wear those designs. I got to add my own twist because I knew I had room to do it and still fit the character.
Personally, I beleive it can be fan art if people just love the design of the character. I have experienced awe from seeing them, and love to analyze their details.
And: I think it's ok if someone who made fan art wern't a fan: As long as they made it for people to enjoy it.
My Rule:
My rule related to this is actually to get to know the character a bit first before drawing them. I need to know some personality, why their eyes are purple for example, or why they wear a pendant. That way the art that I make reflects the character better.
And if I make mistakes: At least people might enjoy the art.
