how do u get your line art so smooth??

I use the Dip Pen (Hard) brush on Ibis Paint. Also, I do my best to keep the same pressure while I draw. The last thing is the least fun, I often re-do lines until I’m happy with them

Basically, patience and practice makes perfect! :)

dude, your art looks soo cool! How did you manage to make it look so smooth without being compressed by Tumblr?

I sacrifice one of my ocs to the tumblr gods every month, that’s why I often draw my ocs once 😔

More seriously though, I use a big pixel aspect ratio. As an example, the canvas I usually work on are 2000x3000 pixels!

I also upload from my phone, maybe it makes a difference

Thank you so much, I love your art too! I especially like your monsters, they’re so unique and their color palettes are lovely :)

PSA: Tumblr/Wordpress is preparing to start selling our user data to Midjourney and OpenAI.

you have to MANUALLY opt out of it as well.

to opt out on desktop, click your blog ➡️ blog settings ➡️ scroll til you see visibility options and it’ll be the last option to toggle.

to opt out on mobile, click your blog ➡️ scroll then click visibility ➡️ toggle opt out option.

if you’ve already opted out of showing up in google searches, it’s preselected for you. but you also have to opt out for each blog you own separately, so if you’d like to prevent AI scraping your blog i’d really recommend taking the time to opt out. (source)
