I've been at work for 2h and we're already at 200 calls because of black friday deals (and also because no one can. Read.).

We're not even in the US skdjdjd

It's in one month (7/7!) I know it's art fight, so it'd definitely be up for at least the whole weekend, maybe up to the weekend before too in case people are busy?

2am about to go to bed

Remembers the Récréathèque I used to go to as a kid and how it had:

novelty glow in the dark mini-golf

paintball

laser tag

inside amusement park rides

chuck e cheese

play place

disco roller rink

bumper cars

big arcade floor

bowling

billiard

also it was from the 90's so it had that funky bright colors and neon aesthetic with arcade carpet

It apparently got set on fire a few years after it closed (10 years ago) though there's been urban exploration of it more recently i think? and then half-demolished in like 2020 apparently

tfw i realize I went to a real life Pizzaplex several times as a kid,, ,

Here's the most Fazbear-ass photo of it, too dfklfgd

Hello dear! I'm curious, do you happen to have any tips for dealing with artblock? I see your art and it inspires me to want to draw but i just cant seem to get out of my art funk. Any ideas what i could do?

Hello!!! <33 Waaah thank you so much!!! Q w Q

Tips about art block, hmm?

I get bogged down or stuck a lot too, honestly! Sometimes I'll ask friends for random prompts when I have no idea what to draw, or I just start naming random activities and see which one sticks with me for inspiration. I'll often redo a sketch like 10 times before I get something I'm satisfied with, and then push that one further.

Oh! 2 good ones: get yourself some low stakes art supplies! I'm talking printer paper, lined paper or even post-its! Something about the low stakes of drawing on 'shitty' paper gives 'permission' to your brain to make mistakes, so there's less block!

Otherwise, I like to either watch videos for pose ideas, or I scribble lines to make them into action lines!! (like I'll scribble, end up with an n shape, make it into someone doing a contortionist move/the bridge, or touching their toes) Also I draw little spirals and squares to loosen up my hand, and I try to not lift my pencil when I sketch, it makes it messier but i feel like it catches the movement better.

So, yeah! My advice is mostly get messy! Scribble and 'ruin' pages (digital or physical) till you see something you like or that inspires you! Or! You can always use the art block to do studies instead! Draw from references, and practice things you want to get better at! Anatomy, objects, colors -- don't think about making it pretty, make it a learning experience!

Thanks so much for the ask, hope it's useful to you!!! <333

Got myself a slice of ice cream cake from the freezer. Put the plate on top of my mug of milk so I could open my bedroom door. Plate slips. Plate falls cake-side down on the floor. Milk splashes EVERYWHERE. CARNAGE.
