Hey..!

*RB’s = Reblogs

I recently realized that I haven’t really shouted out too much about the fact that I won’t be rebloging my own art stuff here anymore. Like, at all. (I hate doubling the fucking tags all the time and then forgetting some...)

So if you still would like to see my art, head over to @dcldraws​

I moved there like, almost 2 years ago and am trying to be a bit more active there, working on a healthy balance with stuff you know?

And anyone who’s waiting over at @ask-kindghb​, don’t worry, I’m working on the comic as well. Which will be posted there. So uh, yeah. See you on the flip side!

Me: *gets a question that could mostly only be taken as a happy memory*

Me: ...

Me: *makes it super sad and get’s character and world development out of it*

Inbox: 

Me: Fuck.

@theslowesthnery Hey buddy... (tl;dr warning as well ^^’)

So I just read about your latest post and thought I would reply. (Even though you might never actually read this because I’m a nobody to you for not being brave enough to interact with you much in the first place... Oh well, I’m taking the chance here.)

First of all: You did the right thing for blocking that person. Block their friends as well and let them be in their own little shitty circle.

I know blocking people feels bad but it’s like closing a door on them. You’re not a door mat. You have the right to close the door when there’s people you don’t want to come in. There’s nothing wrong with it. Especially if they’re jerks like you described them. (Also no, I’m sure you didn’t over describe them at all, I know there are a lot of jerks who are even worse than that in Tumblr and people with groups in them ARE DANGEROUS IF THEY’RE IN THE WRONG MIND SET, I know that for a fact.)

Second of all: It’s ok to be over sensitive.

I am too. So I know how you feel when everyone tell you not to be who you just are because of your past. It’s not as easy to “grow a thicker skin” as people say. Some turn heartless when they try to do it and then they’ll be the problem because they don’t understand anymore how others feel.

So please stay as you are. There’s nothing wrong with that. You are valued like that, even if people are idiots and forget it when you’re “oversharing” your feelings to them. It’s ok to do so because you need to do so to function properly.

Third of all: It’s ok to be tired about this shit. Especially when you’re so popular.

Please let me explain; I’m not a popular artist or popular anything really, but I’m an observer.

And when one people gains so much attention, it gets exhausting. Soon you don’t really know if people are really meaning the good things they’re saying because all the bad things, big or small, are multiplying and clouding your vision, making everything look like they’d hate you or your thing you’re doing. Especially with snarky comments. They don’t understand that the way they’re saying it is negative. And they might even actually be negative just to cause drama and shit storm to gain some attention themselves. They’re trying to leech out from the popular to become popular themselves.

Negativity grows so much easier than positivity because everyone can let their bottled up anger out that way as well as gain attention with their nasty words.

So when you see someone being a little shit about the stuff you do, block them.

You have the right to do it. You don’t need to feel bad about it since you’re protecting both yourself and your community from those idiots.

I hope this reply reaches you. And I hope you’ll feel better after reading it.

Please take care.

Now here’s a brilliant idea:

How about make full games that you can purchase in ONE GO, LET THEM BE AT LEAST GOOD FOR THE MAJORITY, within few months FIX BUGS THAT WENT SOMEHOW UNNOTICED, and after few months actually give out (/or if the game were already surprisingly cheap but fulfilling; sell out) a DLC that adds something to the game like more side missions, new characters, new customize options AND KEEP ADDING MORE STUFF TO THAT GAME/DLC AFTERWARDS TO KEEP THE PLAYERS INTERESTED TO TALK ABOUT THE GAME AND MAKE NEW PLAYERS INTERESTED TO BUY IT; Instead of: Kicking out unfinished game without a story, without checking the game play mechanics, without getting bug checks from multiple different kind of players to get enough feed to fix those pieces of shit AND DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT MICRO TRANSACTIONS YOU GREEDY PIECE OF SHIT.

“HELSINKI”

Sounds a lot like “Hel(l)-sin-ki(nk)” don’t you agree?

Helpful note:

While drawing a ‘sprite’ for your OC’s shenanigans, draw body-face-hair combo folder in different layers so that are easily still changeable if need arises, accessories in different folder to easily move them-

And only one basic hand gesture that you will only after it flip and add any unique markings it has. Do not be stupid and make a hand, duplicate it onto the same layer, and later realize you fucked up since it’s far more easier to just select a one fucking hand and another without needing to do multiple duplicates of the same hand gesture into different folders because you were a motherfucking idiot.

It saves you a lot of time and energy after all!

Also if your sprite likes to change clothes, do those in different layers/folders as well.

Thank you!

That feeling

When you accidentally create a cartoon in your dream. You love the premise, art style, plot, scenes and everything.

Then you wake up.

And you don’t fucking remember everything, just bits.

But you still know you love’em.
