Hi guys! I am just an artist who draws...well yeah. I'm new here so be gentle! (also there will be...

Yo guys, for those who don’t know/missed the earlier post, I’ve moved over to a new blog.  Dunno how much I’ll be on this one anymore, but I don’t know if I’ll be deleting this blog yet either.  

Either way, come by if you want.  It does contain some nsfw stuff there so bear in mind that fact.

Bye Guys...

Hey, guys, this is going to sound kind of weird, but I don’t know how much I’m going to be on this blog anymore.

There’s plenty of reasons why I could say I’m leaving, but a major reason is is that I am not happy with how this blog isn’t really focused on my art anymore.

It kind of was, at first...then it just turned into a regular blog, then I made a side blog for art and etc etc used different pen names and it got super complicated...

I guess you could say NinnyInOrbit was a soft reboot to focus on my art again, while this new blog is a hard reboot.  

Yeah, I said new blog, and I honestly have been using it for about two weeks to test the waters to see if this is what I really want.  And I think that if I am still using it, that you guys should know where I am.

The more I think about it, the more I’m going to miss this place, this pen name, the blog layout I made, and I kind of doubt that I will ever really close the blog until I am really ready.  

But I think that this is how it’s going to be.  

If you don’t wanna follow, that’s fine, but if you do, you can find me at syntheticghost

(Bear in mind, for those who are squeamish, there is nsfw stuff there, some nudity, some gore, etc.  Nothing too explicit in terms of nudity, though)

I dunno what I’m fully going to do with it, nor where I am really going with my art, but I’ve been going through some weird stuff lately and have been experimenting quite a lot with my art.  

It’s scary, but I’m getting more and more comfortable with everything and I think it’s for the best.  

I’m gonna miss you guys, and those who don’t follow I understand.  It’s been real.

Bye guys.

Spazz.

employer: so what would you say is your biggest weakness?

me: probably just like who I am as a person

You know that scene in Ratatouille when Anton the critic takes a bite and immediately remembers why he loves food? And you can actually see years and years of cynicism fall away as he rediscovers the pure passion that he’d lost in exchange for expertise?

I’m waiting for that moment with like, 20 things right now. I need a rat piloting some dude’s hair like a tractor to make something good and help me remember what it’s like to love my hobbies. Teach me, CGI rodents, what it means to be happy instead of worn out and pessimistic about the things I once enjoyed

In conclusion, obrounds.

Sorry for the long post (I think it’s most legible in this format but yikes it’s long)

Don't feel ashamed of doing "CHILDISH" things

•buy toys/dolls/crayons •play with Legos •play old videogames/dress up games •weave friendship bracelets •watch cartoons •use stickers •draw pics of your favorite characters

If it makes you feel nice, do it. Don’t even worry about what other people think, because it doesn’t matter–if it brings you happiness, it’s not “ridiculous”, or “immature”.

You deserve to enjoy yourself.

THIS THIS THIS

There is NOTHING wrong with loving these things and having fun doing them!

Do what makes you happy

Do the things you love and that make you smile and do not feel guilty for it <3

So I have no idea what I'm doing, but eventually I'll be making prints. Any helpful advice, tips and honest advice on how to make everything ready for print? Thanks and sorry if this has already been answered.

Umm let’s see.. it really depends on how little is “no idea”, like is no idea like.. not familiar with photoshop/digital media at all? Are you transfering from traditional, or is it more like not sure where to get things printed. I’ll try to be brief ^^;

1. If you don’t know what DPI is, look it up, you absolutely need to be drawing at at least 300dpi for whatever final size you want (8.5x11? 11x17? 12x18? etc). Most images online are 72dpi

2. Familiarize yourself with CYMK, most images that are for digital consumption are RGB. Here’s some additional tips for CYMK from finnichang

3. Know when you need your prints, and how long it takes you to get your prints once you order them. Plan Accordingly. If you’re ordering online plan for 7 business days or two weeks of lead time, if you’re going local plan for at least checking some places out and getting test prints, generally once you decide you can get your order the same day or a few days. Plan to have your art ready by that lead time. 

4. Price shop, don’t bother with going to fedex or kinkos, any of those chains. Either check local print shops or go with online shops (i’ll recommend one below)

5. Paper weights, your baseline if you’re selling at cons IMO should be 100lb text. Text = AKA “letter” bendy paper that text is usually printed on. Think magazines and books. Rollable. Cover = cardstock, not bendy, stiffer. 80lb cover if you go with cover is usually sufficient, 100lb+ cover gets fancy feels but heavier to lug around. NOT rollable. Honestly, please don’t print on regular printer/xerox paper. Nothing describes the feel of paying $10-20 for a print and have it feel like tissue. ._.

6. Finishes, decide if you like the look of glossy or matte prints :), your preference! Consider glossy has darker / deeper colors, but matte is more finger / smudge resistant. Glossy will also reflect light more which can cause potential visibility issues but some people prefer the shiny finish.

Lastly, I recommend you check out your local printers both for ease of getting proofs and shorter lead times as well as supporting local businesses. However if you don’t live near a local printer or they’re all kinda poopie I do recommend CatPrint. Yes, that IS a referral link, feel free to not use it but since i’m gonna pimp them out i might as well.

Been using them for over a year now versus other cheaper online printers and i’m just beyond happy with their color reproduction, consistency and customer service. There are slightly cheaper places, but the first time you get an order the day before your con and the colors are all off.. well.. you learn that you get what you pay for. Still way way way way cheaper than chain stores though XD

Anyway, hope that helps, tried to keep it brief but urk.. anon if you want you can deff come off anon and i can privately reply to any other questions you have. And uh i guess if anyone else has questions go ahead and ask, though a lot of your questions will likely be answered by google so take a looksie there first :)
