#RainWorldDecember Day 11: Scavenger Apparently I made a mistake making the list, this one isn’t in the game lol. There’s these posts around the map that have the word “scavenger” in the file names, so I just drew that to make up for my mistake. Sorry!! #rainworld #rainworldart #art

#RainWorldDecember Day 8: Jetfish Tried to record a timelapse for this one but it screwed up. I don’t like it much (it would be better as just an area drawing) but oh well #rainworld #rainworldart #art

#RainWorldDecember Day 6: White Lizard I was really struggling to figure out how to compose this one. Nothing was coming to mind and it drove me nuts. I’m gonna revisit it when i get the chance. But today will just be a rest day for me i suppose

HOW YOU CAN PARTICIPATE: Do whatever you want! Paint the creature, or draw, or anything creative related to the prompt at hand! Even if it's pretty tangential. Tag your work with #RainWorldDecember, and feel free to tag me!

WHAT I'M GONNA DO: Either livestream, or timelapse a full painting every day (though I'm allowed to get ahead on sketches!) to get a grasp on this skill. I'm aiming to hit that fun geometric icon-ish style for each one. It'll be a challenge! I'll be doing my best.

my new theory is that once you have a certain amount of money and wealth you start to go crazy and detach from reality. that number is different for everyone. for me it's $20

concerned about the drawing book. the first real exercise was supposed to be about symmetry, and something about your brains visual mode? but I dont think I had the struggle it was expecting me to. like its not perfectly symmetrical but I didnt have this weird moment of paralysis it was talking abt

When I was drawing the second face I was BOTH considering each part of the face and their relationships as body parts AND considering just the line and space between Apparently according to the book people would only do one or the other??? That doesn’t make sense to me

like it was going “oh you had to stop thinking like [how I was thinking] and switch over to [also how I was thinking” what???? Are people limited to one??????? The exercise was a specific thing with drawing that vase / two faces illusion

Number 3: My Hand I LOVE drawing hands so this was my favorite. If I was any decent at pencil shading I would have done ham. I didn’t take a photo - just live reference - so it’s not super accurate but I think it came out really well.

Number 1: Person from Memory This is a coworker. I have pretty awful face blindness so i had a hard time remembering his face, and ended up messing some things up (that’s why his head is so squashed)

Number 2: Self Portrait Focused more on shading and stuff with this one because i had direct reference in front of me. Also because without it I’d look very stupid. Not that I don’t still - I tried so hard to draw myself decently but it’s hard to make ugly anything but

yknow i realize i can’t think of a single character i relate to. like not one. There’s characters i like and cherish and love dearly but I don’t think I’ve ever found a character and been like “wow that’s so me”

Had a friend for a minute who was gonna move here but was like “no one’s talking about (insert specific interest here) it’s not worth the move” and in the past 3 days I’ve seen several posts talking about how the community is shockingly active here. Lmao

i dont think i have a place in whatever future there is. whether it’s good or bad, i will not be welcome and i will not be missed. but currently i am useful, so ill keep pushing forwards, at least until that’s not the case anymore
