I’ve been working like crazy on a YouTube video - first actual YouTube content I’ve made in years - I’m almost done with all the recording I need and I’m so excited it’s getting closer to completion…

Ok Minecraft YouTubers idk how you do it cuz I just spent wayyy too long trying to use the replay mod I HAD my recording AND my key frames + timeline frames or whatever. But everytime I rendered the video I was stuck staring into a CAVE WHY WAS I IN A CAVE!? …It’s fixed now tho Sigh

Sometimes I scroll tiktok with my vision blurred on purpose - probably not good to do but whatever Every now and then I’ll scroll onto a video that makes me have to un-blur my vision just to fathom what I’m witnessing Either it snaps me back into reality or I just blur my eyes again and move on…

Just submitted my first ever oneshot for a manga contest! A Bird out of Hand follows Anala as she decides to break out (quite literally) of the world she grew up in Please consider checking it out and giving your support! ^^ [ #manga | #comic | #digitalart ] www.mangadraft.com/manga/a-bird...

mangadraft.comA Bird Out Of Hand - Manga en lecture gratuiteAction, SF | Fantasy | Fantastique - Anala lives in a city surrounded (quite literally) by computers and screens. Despite this, she has always dreamed of what lies beyond them. After going against her...

New embarrassing memory to haunt me at night aquired: Trying to high five a random man and almost slapping him in the face instead Probably apologized way too much Also almost hit 2 people with a shopping cart but that was a separate event

Can anyone explain why I can churn out 1 page per day for my oneshot But then my actual main focus comic takes me agesssss Grrrrr it’s a me problem isn’t it

Any tricks for making your brain lock into getting work done? Or is this a sign I should take a break… *looks at the 4 manga pages I’ve finished in 4 days* Hmm…

3 year difference ✨ Doing this was just a little treat for myself, a nice break between commission and comic work [ #digitalart | #originalcharacter | #redraw | #sketch ]

Recently finished manga style character illustration for @skyteaa.bsky.social I had so much fun with this one - for the sake of everyone’s phone screens though I compressed the final piece so the screen tones hopefully don’t go too crazy [ #commission | #digitalart | #characterillustration ]

If an old lady dressed in all black asks if you want to come out into the snow at 2AM you probably shouldn’t do it Shout out to my dream last night!! Why did that happen???

I need to find a way to make myself faster at finishing comic pages… Like just in general that’s a good idea But mostly bc…the next chapter is already fully written and I really really wanna draw itttt

One thing that alludes me when drawing backgrounds is just…the ground itself A building? I got it A tree? Love those things The GROUND? Uh…uh… I DON’T KNOW I’ve looked at so many manga panels with incredibly drawn DIRT…I don’t get it, someone explain? How are they doing that I wanna knowwww

I desperately desire to learn how to draw faster - what is my flaw - am I a perfectionist? Do I just need to do more anatomy studies so I don’t feel like fixing poses so much? ART IS HARD

Just spelled a word completely backwards Thought it looked weird Wrote it again Still backwards… Erased it again and … finally realized I was spelling backwards……..

Was talking to a friend about what my OCs say about my favorite things to draw in character designs - showed her an image and all she said was “The ears are drawn with deep love and care” …I think she’s right lol

He is the watcher. The observer. The one who’s seen but shall not tell. The power he holds is not for man to know, we may only ever question…and tremble… #corgi 🐾

Page 9 of Scorched Rune Find more pages and content on my Patreon: www.patreon.com/c/olivejests 💚 Every time I see this page I remember that I sketched most of it on an airplane and then proceeded to get super motion sick…the things you do [ #digitalart | #comic | #comicpage | #scorchedrune ]

I have a love hate relationship with paneling for comic pages - who knew rectangles and squares could make me suffer so much It’s like doing an evil puzzle

I want to DRAW I want to DOODLE I want to CREATE … 5 more hours, my freedom is nigh. Had Covid not taken my sense of smell I’m convinced I would be able to smell it…soon…

So you’re telling me I can spent hours trying to draw a dog on my nice drawing tablet and art program but get nowhere? And then suddenly at work with nothing but a PEN I can make THIS????

Still trying to figure out drawing dogs… You’d think by now I could draw them right? Aha ahahaha ABSOLUTELY NOT What is going on with their face and where do I put their giant honking NOSE Don’t get me started on the fact my dog character has two mouths…THE AGONY

Slowly but surely everyone in my life is becoming aware of my love for pig/boar characters…This is good ANYONE HERE HAVE ANY BOAR FELLAS THEY WANNA SHARE? 👀

I need to get better at thicker lineart. I guess I am afraid of the thick lines being TOO thick - but then I end up with all thin lines… I am a coward But I will improve

Didn’t think I needed to go to bed But then I went to the pantry for a water bottle and found myself holding a full scoop of my dog’s kibble instead… So… I think I’m actually gonna go to bed
