lalnerd's sprite editing sideblog! | inbox: ~300

[minnie-edits-dr]

sorry fellas, but im gonna have to treat this blog as officially dead, or at least on an indefinite hiatus.

maybe im whiny, but theres been a lot of disrespect towards me, my characters, my boundaries, and more thats made making sprite edits a chore rather than something i enjoy.

id love to delete the posts with my ocs (something i didnt think id have to do, but considering the amount of people who steal izanami in particular...) but im afraid if i do that, ill delete the source people can link back to. it... really sucks. so please, if youre a sprite editor who wants to share edits with your ocs, WATERMARK! YOUR! EDITS! you dont know how many people will want to steal your designs, just because the art is in the same style as the original games.

not getting more notes cause “watermarks are ugly” isnt worth the blatant and disgusting theft of your work.

and with that, this blog will be on indefinite hiatus. this blog has caused me so much hurt from something i once enjoyed, and id rather just... not deal with it looming over my head anymore. i WONT delete my blog, but updates wont happen unless i really feel like it. do not send this blog any more requests. if you still want to follow me, you can find me on @lalnerd​ or @weepingalaxy​. thank you for enjoying my edits, but im done. ive had enough

out of curiosity, how much do you charge for sprite commissions?

sadly i havent gotten to do any commissions as of late, since ive been pits deep in projects, hyperfixations, burn out, and more. but, you can find my commission prices here! i will try to do more commissions, just know i have like… a pretty long waiting list dghfjd

(post in question)

yes, you’re allowed to reblog it if you wish! i didnt realize people would wanna do that but ive edited it a lil to be more reblog friendly

[minnie-edits-dr]

i’ve been getting a lot of people asking me to join their fangan projects as an artist, and i’ve had to decline all of them. i’m not interested in joining any fangan teams, especially not if there is no payment involved.

listen. artists need to be paid for their work. if you keep asking for free art you’re being disrespectful to the artist and devalue the time and effort spent on drawing. if you do not have the money to spend on commissioning an artist then make the art yourself. i understand that may be harsh, but treating artists like they’re just fountains of infinite art hurts them and your perception of them. its disrespectful. do better.

would it be ok if i made more sprites for your edits (ex: more sprites for hope!junko)

as long as you dont mess with the original sprite edit, youre absolutely allowed to make as many edits of the design as youd like!!

[minnie-edits-dr]

Do you have any advice for sprite editors who wanna start up their own blog like this one? :0c it can be sprite or actual blog related..! sorry if you've answered stuff like this in the past!!

honestly i dont have much advice, since all i really did was post any edits i had and accepted any requests people had

sometimes getting shout outs work, though all i can really suggest is getting as good as you can and make a bunch of edits to really get your name out there! popularity doesnt rly come quickly, i mean i got 4k in a year, but the most important thing is to do what you wanna do above trying to get peoples validation

do what you wanna do! follow your dreams! as long as you arent hurting anyone, go fucking ham!!!

so i have it on record, i now have an amino account named “lalnerds”. dont expect me to use it much at all, but this is so everyone is aware.

[minnie-edits-dr]

Just here to alert you that someone on amino is using one of your ocs sprites (i think it was the green haired one) and claiming them as their own oc.

seriously? again?

do you know who it is? ill get back on my amino and chat w/ em (reminder: do not attack anyone that uses my sprites against my wishes. do not attack ANYONE on my behalf. be respectful)

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

from the bottom of my cosplay heart for letting me cosplay your monomi edit. It was such a hit (even if I did miss the dangan meet up day 1 😖) and so many people loved it, even people who didn’t know exactly know who I was thought it was cute. We managed a few pictures (these are my favorites) mostly cause these were our favorite cosplays of the weekend.

The monokuma (@missmythmoth on ig) uploaded some edits to her ig and even the tik toks we made

I took a bit of liberty with her makeup (the bottom black lip to make it look like her open mouth and a pink nose you cant exactly see)

Thank you again for letting me cosplay her, hope I did her justice 💕

SO! this blog was made a little over a year ago now, and i have to say, time really flies!! thank you all so much for your continued support, even when i havent actually used this blog in... well, months

im super sorry for not being more active with my sprite edits, ive been falling in and out of this fandom, and i keep giving myself big projects that never end up finished, and am currently working on-and-off on a dr au of another fandom im in. so ive been busy! and burnt out

i think i will try to make more edits, maybe dig through the requests i have currently to try and find something i can do!

thank you again for a year of supporting this silly little blog that was only meant to be a storage place for sprite edits! it means a lot to me, and i hope to continue to make content you all will enjoy, even if not edits specifically!

Can you make Ultimate Robot, Magician or ??? (Survivor) Tsumugi? Only of them would be enough.

hello! i saw your video where you made a detective!angie sprite and i was wondering if you used the same process to make a sprite in paint tool sai. so uh yeah,, do you?

why yes, i do! the process works for photoshop, sai, and clip studio paint as far as i know - though im certain it works for other art programs as well!! my process isnt the end-all of ways to make sprites though, do what works best for you!

minnie my HUBRIS im doing 2 sprites for a friend gift and like another 2 or 3 for my ocs how do u do manage to not like freak out with sprites? Idk how to put it in better terms sjfhdjdbch

uhhhh i dont?? legit i dont have a way to cope with that i mean jesus christ i offered to edit a WHOLE CAST and panicked lmao...... id recommend trying to do less sprites? if its a surprise gift then its not like your friend will know if you only make them one sprite. you can make the second one later if you want as a surprise gift. and your ocs you can have more time inbetween them since its more of a personal project.

breaks are very important to ensure you dont burn yourself out! please be careful!

[minnie-edits-dr]

You did hope!junko now it's time for despair!makoto

bold of you to believe i havent already

I draw a collab with a friend on Instagram! It’s human Monomi based on a sprite edit made by @minnie-edits-dr!

[minnie-edits-dr]

(NOT A REUQUEST) You are SO GOOD AT SPRITE EDITING!! May I draw some of your edits, (with credit) It’s just that I get so happy seeing how inventive the talent swaps are, and how your edits look like they actually belong in the game!

of course, of course!! everyone is always allowed to draw my stuff, in fact nothing would make me happier!!!

[minnie-edits-dr]

This is probably out of the blue, but I just wanna give some thanks. You've been a huge inspiration for me when it comes to sprite editing! I follow you on my main and it always makes me happy to see your edits.

awwww oh my goodness, im so glad you felt inspired by me!! that makes me so happy! thank you so much!!! from what ive seen, your existing sprite edits are really really good - i wish you the best of luck in your future!!
