I hope you are okay with all the floodings and your work at school. Take care xx

racing 92<<<
My city is about to flood (the dam is barely holding the ice anymore) what a good day to be alive 😍
insert title
saw that @lukadreaming had tagged me, thanks!!
Comfort Film: has to be fast five from the fast and furious movies or rocky 4. re-watched both films too many times and can't get enough of them.
Comfort Food: definitely fruit salad
Comfort Clothes: my floor-ball away kit (had a terrifying loss in the home kit so it's like a cursed object) or the basic duo consisting of a gray hoodie and gray sweatpants.
Comfort Song: the whole rocky 4 soundtrack.
Comfort book: So. There are plenty of these, but the ones I re-read the most have to be "The land of long white clouds" by Sarah Lark or two of my favourite books by E.M.Remarque - "All quiet on the western front" or "A time to love and a time to die" - the topics of these books may not be the most comforting but they just bring this weird comforting feeling to me.
Comfort game: fortnite (I will defend this game until the day I die like legit playing squads w ur bezzies(or brother and his mates) is just something else), fifa 14 (no other fifa matches up to this one), sims 4 and minecraft but only survival mode.
That's it, again - thank's for tagging! (also tagging 2 people because ive been on this app for like 2 minutes and I am lonely af) @highiqavery @kleindoeil
it's so hard to go back to school after 2 weeks of doing nothing while the only thing on your mind is how to win your game on saturday
i dont even watch basketball
LESS = MORE art tips vol.2
I can't stress enough with this. If it's not realism, then why do people feel the need to make their jobs so detailed that it hurts to look at?
Anyways let's get onto breaking down the examples.
A.
So, avoid blending. Please. It doesn't make the colours pop in the slightest and makes everything look like a porridge, just a bad way to present a stylised artwork. Just don't blend and add normal shadows. That's the only way out of it. Also make sure to use as much colour you can to make the work look more complicated than it is. Also line art can be messy. It's even better because it gives work some personality and makes it more lively, while a single line makes it do the opposite and lose everything.
colours = ur bezzies
no blending
use your line art skills
restrain yourself from using a thin brush
B.
Logos. It's easy but at the same time not. I just recommend listing down things that make the logo stand out, like I did with Castore. It's just a pair of wings, so quite simple, just drew the wings with no text and detail in them. I did the same with Adidas as seen on examples C and E, as well as the fern logo on the both examples. As long as you know what it is, and are confident that you've portrayed it nicely, no one is going to ask questions. Plus people don't even look at it in detail!
the less detail the better
absolutely no text allowed
3-4 lines max
if it's a letter, don't even thing about recreating the same font - just draw a lazy A or B and call it a day.
C.
Again, like in example A, blending is avoided at all costs, and like in B, the logos are simplified to a level where it's recognisable if you know what you're doing. Shadows are done in a nice tone, and there's not much difference between example A and C other than the colours used and the part of the body portrayed in them. It's also visible that I've simplified the face, Rieko Ioane in this case - it might not seem like it, but if I go around saying that it's Rieko, then it is going to be Rieko and nobody can do anything about it. Just know what you're drawing, and take every short-cut you see.
just don't blend alright
know who you're drawing
simplify everything
messier line art - more personality
D.
Trust me, unless it's realism, nobody's going to chop your head off if Marcus doesn't have each of his hair strands drawn individually (actually yes they are because there's a simpler way than drawing each strand) so just don't do it, and do it like seen in example A - no blending, just a good line art that provides everyone with everything they need to know. Moral of the story - DO NOT draw hair strands, use lines, it's simpler and you won't actually die from stress.
detail = bad
nobody even cares
just use your pen/pencil brush alright
E.
If you're not a muppet you've noticed that it's literally picture C but altered. That's to show how to do SIMPLE highlights. Yes, an airbrush tool or marker tool is allowed here - but only here, and to make it more convincing, I recommend adding streaks of the same colour but with the pen slash pencil tool (depends on what programme you're using!) Like I've written down there, it's completely alright to not use the highlights - they're loads of work but if needed, no shame in doing that either.
highlights are the only case where other brushes are tolerated.
add shine or glow mode to the layer
one colour and do it lightly to not steal anything from the work
Moral of the story - just don't do anything stupid, don't go deep into detail, don't blend unless really needed, and the pen/pencil tool is the only legal one unless a certain exception. As long as it's not realism (or attempted realism)
i can draw faces i swear 😥
DON'T USE BLACK OR WHITE IN YOUR WORKS vol.1
Generally what I'm trying to say is that you shouldn't use black or white in your artworks, only for outlines. While you can use a bit of white, like I did in example B, it's not recommended to go overboard, instead make the tone more gray, yellow, red or green - anything that works.
Let's break down each pieces, now.
A.
While it doesn't look bad, the colours are a bit plain and makes the work more boring. The shadows ruin everything too - from what I've learned, NEVER use black shadows. They take away colour which already lacks in the example.
Notes:
black and white tones on the shirt
black shadows
B.
This one isn't the best piece either, but at least it has some colour, some personality to it - it's a bit yellowish, and while the light parts are white, it doesn't seem to take anything from the work, accents it in a nice way I could even dare to say. The choice of shadowing is done accurately top - tone of the shadow will always depend on the lighting, this time I've decided to go for a mid-day look, hence the shades look like that.
work has a bit of personality in it, a bit of colours.
the shadows are colourfu
That's generally it, hope that got the right idea across.
art school equals pain
That feeling when you make the first couple of slides in ur school presentation ugly af but get random motivation out of absoloutely nowhere and the last few end up looking like absoloute masterpieces 💀💀
