20 billion double dollar man, he's so goofy, in some ways I like to think that watching Trigun as a tween made me a little bit of a better person, peace and love and all that.
Mushroom girl! vaguely based off polypores but not really I was mostly just cleaning up a doodle from ages ago
It's so outrageously funny that they moved Aslan to the side in the second poster to make way for Caspian
Nothing wrong with watching these back to back!!
You all (the 5 tumbler people I know by name that are watching) get a sneak peak of the next animation I'm working on!
I'm trying to emulate the big top burger pipeline with a 3D modeled body and a 2D grease pencil face but that means I have to learn blendr from scratch but looking at a still of my sweet boy, it's totally worth it.
SNAIL RIDERS !!!
I rewatched the Narnia movies and they have me so fucekd up like what do you mean they ruled Narnia for like 50 years and then on a random day had to go back to school in Englad AS CHILDREN I WOULD LOOSE MY MIND they would have to send me to an institution because what the hell
A childrens book cover I found for the legend Lāčausis (bear ears) which inspired Andrejs Pumpurs to write the epic Lāčplēsis (bear ripper)
I'm on holiday and staying in Riga for a few days and wanted to bring attention to the beautiful faces around the city!
I think that in the advent of modernization, people have left behind the idea of everyday art , art that enriches communal spaces and adds character to places. I've been thinking about it a lot, how this kind of lush art isn't as common as it might have been before, and how it's so noticeable now when it is there because we often are absent of it.
OK so, stay with me on this one,,,, what if vampires had like a lamprey thing going on?
Like that but that's how vampires worked, just imagine
do you mind if i use your angels in the sky art as my blog header?? i just got emotionally destroyed by that image, ill give you credit of course but oh my gosh it's so beautiful
Oh woah that's so sweet ! Absolutely you can infact I'd love if you did
Artistic interpretation of what I saw
Angels flying over Lithuania
This is my ode to all the amazing summer outfits I've been seeing women in, outfits that I walk past on the street and feel inspired by.
Clothes have so much power to be joyful expression, and summer is the perfect time of year, it's just so much fun
But they were brothers.
I'm going back to my roots with this one because the Lāčplēsis rock opera never truly leaves my mind, THEY WE'RE BROTHERS not by blood but by choice! until the interferance of enemy forces and the influence of greed and guilt tore them apart, its literally tragic and on my mind all the time.
Drawn for @moonstainn s dtiys
I don't know if I got the right 70s vibe. I just kinda looked it up on Pinterest and drew pieces of outfits I liked, but all the references were giving modern 70s re-imaginings, which are also very fun.
It was nice to draw something new for once. I've been working on the same animation project for like 2 months in college, and this felt like a breath of fresh air, honestly I feel a bit rusty in art rn
I went to a vampire themed party and fulfilled one of my life's deepest desires.... dancing so hard to that one track from devil man crybaby, you know the one
This made the dance floor go wild, best dj set I've heard in my life
Shark girl ! That's it that's the whole thing
I basically instigated a meet cute the other day.
It was raining really heavy and I was waiting for the bus and there was only one guy at the bus stop with no umbrella or hood, trying to put his laptop in his bag
So obviously I was like we should share the umbrella I'm holding, and it was really funny because we did not fit (it was a small umbrella.) He told me he was going to be late for his first shift at a new job and we laughed about it.
Don't even know his name
I coloured in my sketches !! Now they're super delicious
How do you handle negative feedback or criticism of your art, especially when you're trying to gain visibility?
This is a very good question !
Dealing with criticism can be really tough sometimes, but I believe it's important to draw the line between what is actual criticism and what is a negative comment (source : my college professors)
Art doesn't exist in a vacuume and we all need to receive criticism from others to grow as artists but ironically you have to be critical of your critics and that requires being able to take a step back from your emotional attachment to your art and assess it objectively. Could I do this better ? Are the proportions off? Does this drawing accurately convey what I want it too?
These are important things to ask yourself, and admit to yourself if the answer sometimes is no. Not everything you make is going to be good the first few times and not everything you do is going to be good. Its healthy to admit when things look a bit shit sometimes. You need to make hundreds of shit drawings before you make one one good one it's better to get the bad ones out of your system quickly.
In terms of negativity that's where criticising your critics comes in, you don't have to be an expert to give criticism online not everyone telling you to change things has your best interest at heart and if they don't then what they say is irrelevant to your art journey.
A really smart person once told me "you have to believe in your art because no one is going to do it for you" and that means when you make something worth being proud of you take the time to feel proud of it even if it doesn't meet other people's standards.
My Kanaeda sketches from college today
He's just such a cutie patooty
If he's doing some shady biz, I'm in
I think Fullmetal Alchemist, Trigun and Vinland Saga collectively made me a much better person then I would have been otherwise
What are they feeding these blond men
welcome to the valley, as you can see there is plenty of room.. and literally nothing else, ENJOY.
