They're squeans I'm pretty sure! If they pop like that anyway. But the term for this kind of "symbol to refer to the general vibe of something in art" is called "Emanata" because it emanates from a person or object.

Why doesn't my line art look as good as my sketch?

Science reason: "The sketchiness of line art mimics the natural lack of clarity in our peripheral vision. When we look at the real world, our high definition fovea can only focus on a small area at a time. By having a very clean line art, it creates the unnatural feel of high clarity over a large area that’s not possible when we look at real life, therefore line art tends to appear stiff and not as appealing as the sketch. This sketchiness technique was first utilized by impressionists to create an optical illusion of motion (along with other techniques like equiluminance) " - Vision and Biology of Seeing by Margaret Livingstone

If there’s a story you want to tell, or you really want to make movies, there really is nothing stopping you - apart from not having friends. As sad as it sounds, that’s one of the biggest problems, like If you’re young and you really want to be a filmmaker, but if you don’t have a lot of friends who are willing to work with you, then you’re fucked.

why does sequential art require you to make multiple images? does anybody understand this?

[atmosphere-af]

[wolveria]

“Why is all the best art from this ship artist?”

Because they’re creating what they love.

“Why is all the best art created by this porn artist?”

Because they don’t apologize or censor themselves.

“Why is all the best art created by this artist who likes dark content?”

Because they aren’t tying their hands behind their back. If you worry about morality and “taste” in art, you’ll only make what’s acceptable, rather than what’s interesting.

Rob drew Cabbage's armor!

...And for anyone who doesn't know, "TTRPG" stands for "tabletop role-playing game" and I went with that because D&D felt too specific for the joke.

can you reblog and tell me which of your ocs has the stupidest name

[rowyngoldeart]

Deddrie.

In my head (in my defense, I was in high school) his name is pronounced "Dead-Dray"... NO one would ever read it that way. "Deed-dree" at best. This guy:

There was a reason he wound up with the name, but it hardly matters now in the grand scheme of things. He's a serial killer who falls in love and makes bad puns.

I had a webcomic starring this guy for 13 years, and now it's all collected in a hardcover/digital PDF:

Deddrie, the Cornsbrook Killer: Complete Collection

13 Years of kills and thrills.  270 pages of blood and puns.  Deddrie is a serial killer in the town of Cornsbrook, but also has a healthy s

It's got my commentary on each comic.

I've been thinking about uploading a Best Of on Tapas or something, just to have some of it still be easily accessible. We'll see!
