Yo yo yo!



Ooo boy depression is back! And its ready to kick my ass! And it sorta did...

(Art): An apple apparently... I dunno, I just wanted to paint an apple. 
  I actually did this because I do not paint a lot of stuff. I remembered that I downloaded these brushes from Ahmed Modri and I just used those to make this apple. You can see the brush's texture and semi-painterly strokes in the background that I created. I feel like I am STILL too afraid of going too dark or light with the values. I dunno why its so scary but it is and I need to break out of that fear. Ehh... whatever, this was for fun.



(Art): WIP Lineart of a character my friend is putting in his book. Well, I found out how to make my brushes not look so... muddy (I just had to turn on the Texture box on the brush customization menu). But I honestly do not know how to go about my style of doing lineart. I dunno if I should go simple lines, do a comic book style (which is what I was trying to do, I not digging it honestly...), etc. I'm not sure. I want to check out how other people do lineart and try it out. (I think I only like hatching lines with no deep shadows or blacks, I'll try that...)

I should do more line arty stuff and explore because SHIT I do not like what I am doing right now. I need to start exploring more before doing shit like this...

EDIT: Maybe am not adding enough details in the design itself. Ugh... I'm losing my mind over this.
