I thought it would be fun to share pictures of the spaces people create in. This doesn’t have to be limited to a desk, it can include the whole room, or maybe you create in several areas.

I converted my apartment’s modest dinning room into a studio space. This is where the bulk of my work gets done.

I don't have pics, but it varies for writing since I can take my laptop anywhere, and for art, the living room on the couch in front of the liftable coffee table. I use the arm rest of the couch for my tablet because it's the safest place to work for my back (I used to get a bad pain around my left shoulder blade because of how I used to sit and work) I get plenty of room to sit and work, so that's nice smile

My drawing area is set up in the corner of my bedroom.

It's sort of a mess.

OMG That expression! Your cat is so cute! Thank you for sharing a pic of your space!

Awww you're so lucky to have a nice workspace! With an actual table and stuff too.
Mines is just on my bed with a MAC laptop and 13hd Cintiq lol

Here's mine B) I have another shelf behind me that has even more merch shit on it, and another set of shelves in my bedroom.... My fav stuff gets to sit on the shelf above my computer. (that charizard in this pic is my most recent addition and he's hella bootleg and pretty much the best. You can't tell in this picture but his wings are sewn on upside down and everything, it's incredible) I also have some rainbow flamingo lights sitting on there but they're not turned on right now.

I'd share more of my office but it's kind of a mess right now. I fairly recently moved my stuff into this room and haven't gotten everything set up yet, like I have a pile of prints I got from conventions that I'm going to be hanging all over the walls and stuff.

Dojo, I know this this is random... but, by chance do you like Pokemon?

N...NO....... W-WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IDEA?! I don't even know what that is!!!

LMAO! XD ha ha hha ha ha ha ha ha hha ah..... yes, that was good.

This is my home setup! c: I have a different one at school that's less pretty haha.

Your space is so beautiful! That large window and natural light! Plus all the natural hues and lots of trees outside! So peaceful.... "drooling....."

I contemplated cleaning up before I took a picture, but decided that it'd be better to show the truth. :'D So here is my incredibly cluttered workspace! It's basically one whole side of my bedroom. .3.

Ah, everyone else's look so set for work, and I'm here buried in weeb trash. qwq

Well, except for Dojo's I guess! XD

My space looks like an absolute mess right now, if I ever manage to clean it up I'll be sure to post a picture.

Here's my dark comics cave!


Cintiq, scanner, regular monitor, computer tower - with a pile of important papers and stuff on top of it, etc.

(I promise it's not actually that dark, but yes, the walls are painted dark green)


Closeup on the righthand side of the desk, where I do 90% of my thumbnailing, scripting and planning for my various comics, armed with all of the sketch- and notebooks, and more tea than is probably sensible.


Another step to the right, and we arrive at my dedicated comics-shelf. This is a fairly old picture, so it's alone here; these days, there's a narrow display cabinet next to it in which I keep all of my tea. Like, all of it.


Off in a separate corner is my homemade lighttable, where all the non-digital art happens. I wish I had more time for non-digital art, but alas, that is not currently the case.

(occasionally I do manage to escape the confines of this dark cave, and go thumbnail at the bottom of the garden instead:)


My creative space is pretty bare bones. Not too many gadgets or accessories (except a messy powerboard on the corner of my desk). My room is generally small, so I need to compensate for the space that I have.


Separate comfy chair that I use specifically for reading. It's also the chair I use to ponder on ideas and contemplate life.


Closer look of desk. On the right is the intuos pro that I use for digital art, and the laptop it's resting on is also what I use for digital art - this smaller one is just for school purposes.


A wall that I put pictures I like on. Most of the sketches you see here are actually quite old - I think it's the ideas they hold that makes me hold on to them, just in case I need something for a new comic. The Chat Noir poster and print on the top left I bought in France, and the Tokyo Ghoul poster I bought at some obscure anime shop - maybe I should dub this as the wall of sentimentality.

It's a nice space, but I feel I've made it so comfy that I can never muster up enough energy to take on anything big. It's the blankets!

I wish I had my workspace in the kitchen too, but I need it for cooking (it's so, so very small my kitchen D: But there's better light in there)

So I have it in my bedroom, underneath my bed! :D Saves me space and I'm able to keep my kitchen, livingroom and hallway free from artstuff xD (My toothbrushes shares mug with the brushes and steelnibs 8D)


And a close up, as I use the EXACT same place for working with traditional art as well! My cintiq's just for fun, hahaha!

HEY NOW!

Hahah I agree though, everyone's got such nice looking setups, I'm enjoying looking at them B)

Nice! I settled a whole room to draw in the house...and I never use it, because it's too hot in summer and too cold in winter. Sigh. Also I started working on an iPad that doesn't really need a dedicated space
