Hey this is random but do you have any tips on making tattoos look realistic? I suck at it lol
I do actually! So in general, the best tip I have for making tattoos look kinda realistic is to blur them a tiny bit. Not like smudge them or anything, what I do is use gaussian blur and just blurring it a tiny tiny bit. Its smart to play around with this a bit to see what best fits your art style. Another tip is to lower the opacity of the tattoos a little bit. That way youll still be able to see the details of the skin and body beneath it, this tip is a bit more difficult tho, cause it can make the tattoo look brown instead of black. Its also very important to just take your time playing around with perspective etc, the tattoo needs to look like it wraps around the body part, personally I generally draw the tattoo itsself first, no perspective changes whatsoever. Then I place it where I want it on the body and start slowly making it fit the body. I generally start with the perspective tool, then I use the warp tool, and finally I go in with the liquify tool. Idk what program you use, and I sure dont know what all the tools are called etc (I use procreate) but its essentially three steps. 1. Make the tattoo the same perspective as the person/bodypart. 2. Make the tattoo wrap around the body part. 3. Warp the tattoo to help show off the smaller muscles and details of the body part.
I know this is kinda all over the place, and probably a bit confusing, but I hope you found it helpful!!!
I discovered this thing called throat spray, which is essentially a numbing agent for your sore throat, and it works GREAT. Having a sore throat is my least favorite thing in the entire world, so this is a genuine game changer!!!
Anyway if you see this you have to reblog and tag with a delight from ur day -- even the littlest thing counts
people who say “I block for spam liking” like damn sorry that you hate joy. Every time someone goes through and likes 3829278 posts on my blog I’m filled with a love and power that you will never know and I pity you
The seasonal depression is hitting "I need to jump into a lake" levels, might go try ice bathing for the first time since I was a kid
If a good nights sleep is the human equivalent of turning a pc off and on, ducking your head under icy cold water is the equivalent of a factory reset
(Haven't been ice bathing since I was a kid, but I usually go for a swim in one of the lakes around my parents' house the first proper warm day of late spring (like 15°C) so the water IS cold as fuck)
Being an extremely extroverted person with chronic fatigue sure is a fucking trip
What do you mean I can only be outside of my house for like 3 hours a day???? I need to TALK to people, be SOCIAL, have shit HAPPENING
Shoutout to my flatmate that gets attacked with a fucking monologue any time she dares exit her bedroom. Cause then I've been sitting in the shared living room for HOURS, just charging up shit to say, and everything spills out at once the SECOND theres a living soul there to listen to me
hi there! do you allow reposts of your art?
Thank you for asking! As long as you dont crop out my watermark, and tag me it's fine. But I'd prefer you didn't repost to any other platforms than the ones I am on (so the tag can lead directly to my acc)
I really enjoy playing video games, and am usually quite okay at it, but I for some reason am completely incapable of doing them correctly. Let me explain.
I usually aim for 100% completion in all games I play, which in turn tends to make me accidentally do things in the wrong order. In addition to this I am slightly stupid and fuck up a lot, so here are some of my best moments:
1. Skyrim: was gifted the game by a friend who loves it and was immedeately hooked. After having played non stop (apart from school) for about two weeks, my friend asked me what my favorite shout was. My response? "What the fuck is a shout??" I'd played the game for two whole weeks and just casually not gotten to that quest yet. I had the quest in my log, but I was running around doing other things, also killed a few dragons and had to go back later to be able to absorb their souls
2. Stardew valley: Played the game till I got tired of it, 100+ hours. Put it away, and then realized that romance is a thing in the game. I did not have a single hint of romance in my play through lmao
3. Baldur's gate: I during the entire thing with the thieflings in the glade I somehow fucked up enough to kill every single person there, causing me not to have the thiefling party and not get the Halsin quest. I did not realize there was another solution to that problem until halfway through act two.
I also managed to enter the goblin camp the wrong way, so I entered through the exit. During this I somehow killed Halsin. Then as I exited the camp I got the pop up for the Halsin quest, and then immedeately after a pop up saying the quest was over
4. Assassin's creed: when I play open world games I usually try to do every side quest etc I can before continuing with the main quest. In the ac games you also have a neat question mark for everywhere you haven't been. So any time I entered a new a new area, I'd loot everything. This caused me to get an inventory FILLED with quest items I did not have the quests for yet. Also ended up with a lot of quest items I never got to use after finishing the game
5. Horizon forbidden west: I did not realize there were areas of the map you needed a flying creature to access, so before unlocking said creature I was going around trying to explore every single location. Somehow also managed to glitch my way into one of the places that could "only" be accessed by flying. (I jumped like a million times till I managed to angle it correctly so I was able to jump into a tree and then jump the fence that way)
Also feel the need to mention that I do not own a sense of direction, and this is often revealed in the way I play games. I have a bunch of examples, but let's do the one where I tried to play breath of the wild.
I entered into a room. Straight ahead was a very obvious opening for where to go next, but I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything in one of the corners. So I walked around the room, "oh look! A secret door!" I opened said door, expecting a smaller room with some loot in it. What actually happened? I walked back outside...
That's all I can remember for right now, but there is most likely a BUNCH more
I made a deanmon gif :)
I literally have NO idea. Have I tasted cilantro? Yes, and I did think it tasted absolutely awful. But I dont think I'd say it tasted like soap. There is a possibility that I do not have the gene, but simply don't like cilantro.
On a different note, I do know I have the gene that makes grapefruit very bitter (tested it in school, and have eaten grapefruit) but I have eaten that shit with a load of sugar since I was like 4 years old and I absolutely love it
i need to know
ok im about to think about the Character!! im so Excited 😊😊
