that pillow shading 

[Ad Bot]

[Zay]

that is loving terrifying

reminds me of some of those creepy ass dolls I'd be afraid of staring at as a kid because I thought it'd blink

Oh I forgot everyone hated my art sorry guys move along

the most helpful post I've seen all day

You should color the entire eyes to be entirely solid black. Roll with its inherent creepiness factor and make something legit spoopy.

whut

[Bushido]

when in doubt, bitch and moan about how everyone hates you and how both you and your art must suffer unjustly for your work regardless of actual context or response

honestly char and you call yourself an artíst

honestly char and you call yourself an artíst

wait what
did you confuse me with blouk?
or is this about something else?

I mean, I don't really complain when people say my artwork is bad, or point out things that are wrong with it.
I do usually call my art not good, but that's just me.

ok seriously i went and googled how to put an accent on an i for the sake of conveying how facetious i was being

the joke is that blouk is reacting very poorly (and in a very typical manner) to criticism and observation

i posited my response as a reaction to you seeming confused at the prospect of blouk being a stuff, relying on the fact that you look like you don't understand what's happening to make a technical sounding but actually satirical axiom as an 'answer' to your 'question'

i am not actually calling you a stuff artist, i am calling blouk a stuff artist because he is failing to do a very important part of the artistic process (IE: criticism) but, in line with the joke, i am calling him good and you bad ironically, because actually it is the inverse

did i leave anything out or do you understand now

Yeah forget experimentation and challenging the status quo.

airbrushing is not experimentation, its being loving lazy, it always results in really soft and poorly defined shadows, it doesn't allow for hard edges simply by its design, which are absolutely critical to achieving realistic lighting and shadows

the airbrush is an objectively bad tool, its not like we're talking about differing mediums, we're talking about different tools to manipulate a single medium

it's like using a loving toothpick as a paintbrush, it's not gonna work well no matter what you do

and a significant majority of digital artists use the airbrush so the second part of your statement is a non-sequitur

I could see the use in that

i totally missed that, my bad

did i leave anything out or do you understand now

i get it

[Bushido]

there's no reason you couldn't use anything to do anything especially in the context of art as long as you actually understand what you're doing and how to dodge the typical caveats associated with whatever thing you're trying to do

problem is bloukface doesn't know his stuff (pillow shading, etc) so hes clearly not going to get around a pitfall he apparently doesnt know exists in the first place

I use a toothpick for painting sometimes.

see in any other case i'd say we were missing the point but clearly everyone is very well acquainted with points as-is

"missing the point" is just a boring excuse for using a bad brown townogy
