I switched from Wacom to XP-Pen and I cannot recommend it enough, I had so many issues with my 13HD and ive not had a single one with my 15.6 Artist Pro. XP-Pens tablets have been such a delight to use (i own two!) and i recommend them to anyone who asks !!

Things will get better, they must, otherwise it'll all reach a breaking point no matter what.

Holy cow that's so freaking cool!

The big problem is society, artists need incentives to create, I'm talking schooling and industry. Especially in a market based economy such as capitalism (or leading up to fascism in our case)

It's not just the fact that what ideas people do come up with are at risk of being stolen, it's also that people are having less ideas of their own completely. There's a war on creativity going on at this very moment, and I'm afraid we're losing.

Oh and before I forget!
Does anyone know any good brands for colouring markers?
I know a little bit about the different types like water based or acrylic but I have no idea about what brands are good, I have some water based ones but there not that great

I'd be willing to help you pay for it if you want.

If any of you could get a commission that's a minimum of 40 USD, that would be great.
I need to pay for something unexpected, like, now.

I'm sorry for asking so much…

After graduating from Animation School, I haven't really had any luck finding a good position in the Industry. It makes me a bit aimless and sad -w-
But if there are any openings out there that anyone knows of, I'm more than willing to jump at the opportunity

It's always lovely to see these pieces, especially the experimental ones.

5. Keep an eye out for other threads where people have good ideas. Share them. Engage the community.

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout:

-submitting a feedback request
-@ing moderation about it
-commenting on mods posts about it
-making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker)
-leaving an app store review
-just generally posting about it

Speaking from experience you do not need to "lock in" as you say. You've always had the most phenomenal work ethic out of the artists I've met. It's been such a joy to see the growth of your style over the years and I don't plan to stop supporting you any time soon.

If you still have FA I'd start there

Any characters in particular that you think would be best or do you just wanna leave that up to me? Come to think of it I only know of Arty (if that's his name I just assume you share the name because it's your exosona) so I might have to look into that.

yohnee.bsky.social @yohnee.bsky.social · 11d

On an entirely unrelated note, I want to learn Blender so would you be fine with me trying my hand at rendering one of your characters?

Yes, I'm a fucking pessimist and I think it'll get better. More and more people are becoming aware by the day.
