I'm not saying you can't make it work, it's just having a lot of problematic tropes that can become very difficult to handle properly, especially without much experience on the topic. Being called a monster or traitor isn't exactly uncommon for gay people, same with being called "over-sensitive" whe…

I think I read this even here in a forum thread where a writing teacher didn't say "this is bad" but asked "how can we fix this?" and I think this is a very good way of thinking. There are things that are literally overdone in the creative field, but somehow you still find something with exactly thi…

My fave movie was Barbie of Swan Lake, and I think Princess and the Pauper was the last one I watched when I was little. I remember being scared of Nutcracker for whatever reason, so I only watched it once and then the VHS broke bc it was self-recorded and the other movies had been rewinded too ofte…

I had to fight this a lot, too, the thing that helped me was to not think of other artists as concurrence but rather as inspiration. Art shouldn't be a competition, after all readers who read their comics and admire their art can do the same with yours. It doesn't have to be just one or the other. Y…

To be honest, I would try to find time for both! I was drawing since I was little and especially during graduation time in high school, drawing helped me relax a little from school stress. I would recommend to do drawing "just for fun" while you're still in school - while sketch-a-days are a good ge…

oh yeah, you're right, I really shouldn't be allowed to type when it's past 3 AM x) in that case, do you rather want a Goryeo or Joseon hanbok for her? on Goryeo hanboks I also have a book so ~

@aqua03 @Anime_Bolt could you please give me either your IG or the link to the comic to credit you? @Rubombee can you give me some visual refs here? @KoreanTacos I'd have to research that (though in most historic dramas they don't, I think that's more of a recent development?) also please give m…

sorry for the late reply, was kinda busy the last few days ^^; I'll be gone for about a week from tomorrow on so idk how quickly I'll be able to reply to any questions but I've got plenty of time to sketch, so there's that! @Rodimus13 thank you for letting me know ^^ (it's only going to be a penci…

what I noticed is that while the right arm is moving, the left where he holds the coffee doesn't, which seems very counterintuitive to me, even if it's ever-so-slightly (a very slight back-and-forth). and yeah, the torso might turn to the side a wee little bit as well to get a more dynamic movement. …

@Moxxi and @Rodimus13 I'd most likely do a humanized version of them but still keep elements of their non-human form and try to translate them into their clothing or something, I hope that's cool with you? @tired_programmer aaahh.. I actually said pre-1930s :sweat_smile: do you want to pick another era or shal…

what I kind of think might work well are those "try different styles" challenges (on deviantart were a few back in the days but idk if they're still online) like one is chibi, one manga, one is the simpsons, or adventure book covers, stuff like that (or you pick favourite creators and try to draw in…

she's super pretty! do you have the comic link or something for credit?

Hello everyone, I want to get back to drawing more regularly so I wanted to try a Sketch Daily for myself - however, prompt lists/generators don't really spark with me, and thus I had another idea: Why not ask for people to lend me their OCs and let me redesign them a bit? I really love period c…

As mentioned before, love and relationships are very multifaced so having something from carnal desire isn't necessarily bad, especially since there are no two relationships alike. I think what's most important for a relationship to work is that you don't have one big "YES I DO" moment but decide wh…

tbh English is a pretty easy/basic language but somehow English native speakers don't like to hear that. ^^ As a German native I think we had mostly trouble with the pronounciation in school because we oftentimes have very similar-looking words but our vowels work like before the Vowel ShiftTM, pl…

this is a hilarious idea all these Extra characters :`) I should finally go and watch pt 5 maybe I can request Mae, she's super good with bow and arrow so I think a long-distance stand would work well with her, kinda has a Jotaro personality but a bit less rude^^ (and small-ish with 152 cm so that…

I'd actually support the hell out of it (as long as it's not incest/paedophilia/abusive as some already mentioned) as I myself am sad that I can only put like 10% of my own ships into canon. I think the only thing I'd ask of people is to be respectful to gender identities and sexual orientations whe…

I mean yes, it is somewhat important? I'm working on a fantasy universe but that doesn't mean you get away with everything. Of course you can't be an expert on all things in the world but at least trying to be well-informed really doesn't hurt, especially when it comes to major elements, things your…

I think this is a plain simple no, especially while the creator is still alive. (The important fact with Kafka was that they were published several years after his death, and as you already mentioned, a lot of them weren't even remotely finished - why would Kafka even want to publish them if they …

most people already said it but again, your eye just developed to the next step and now your hand has to keep up with it, that's pretty normal. maybe give yourself a small break over the holidays now, read a book maybe, spend time with your loved ones etc. to distract you a little before you get dow…

I'm having a similar "problem" so thank you for the idea! It never even crossed my mind to split it up between volumes haha just might not be as self-contained as a one-shot for what I'm working on

I usually have like 10 images I want to pick for June but none for April/May and September and this time is no different (April was better this year, tho, instead February was difficult to find haha) [image] 2/3 of course my characters and I'm still laughing at …

to me, it's really just the ending that makes more sense within the story (feeling realistic/natural instead of just checking a trope list) but sometimes writers (looking at you, rom com Hollywood) just ruin the ending by shitty dialogues. also sometimes it'd be a happier ending if the couple didn't…

ok small disclaimer: I'm not quite sure if I read all the replies here so I hope I won't repeat previous points. (it kinda got out of hand, I apologise for the length.) First of all, small story time: I'm myself am bisexual but literally didn't know this fact about myself (even though there were P…

I get these, too, especially on instagram but also here and... it always feels like guilt-tripping. Oftentimes it is not the style, genre, and quality I prefer and I don't even know how to say "sorry but I don't like anything about it." I would get it if I mentioned before "I really like these com…

*silently slips in my blog tag *

I personally would give her a less skimpy shirt that is more straight lines and not such complicated folds (just like the one Jack wears, and uhh... boob support? at least if you have that kind of cleavage you'd definitely need one.) I mean she's a pirate queen, that means she'll get involved in som…

Sometimes I wonder if part-timing would be possible for the exact same reason but as a beginner in the industry I probably would be out of luck^^ I hope things will work out for you as well and don't burn yourself out!! Sleep is important too!
