@Unicorn: they will most likely email me back
since it's an online job and they said if i am accepted they'll email me back.

I've applied for this site before but not this job.
But i think I did a lot better job than I did last time.
So I am hoping I got 80-90% right that they accept me.

I needz money. :vanora_cry:

Ah I see.

@Unicorn: Sounds like a very busy but exciting weekend!! > w <
I have been doing well. I am watching a few tutorial videos for a die-cut machine called silhouette cameo 3//
I've been wanting to get one for a while but trying to design a few things to make into stickers.

So I am in-between ideas. 0 x 0;; Trying to fight against self insecurities > X<

@MoodyBats

I am in the same boat. Having a stressful time with trying to draw at least everyone >//<;;

@MoodyBats: Studying? Same here with trying to study on things I am weak at.
Are you working in traditional or digital? I know the mean on the digital brushes; I have too many brushes and was just looking at more brushes and then I never know which one to use in > A<

I have the same program it seems;; My hand begins to hurt after I draw something 'seriously' and it takes a while for it to feel better.

Do you have the same issue or it more with patience or time to/wanting to sit down and draw?
*the struggles*

@Shampoo: Mainly digital. But i do my gesture drawing in my sketchbooks or try to.
It's very hard with my large tablet lol.

I just use round brushes but a lot of artists who do realism which is what i want to do
say to use both soft and hard round brushes.
so then my brain overthinks it. :vanora_sweat:

No, my hands don't really hurt. I just get fatigued easily and I normally have something do to
that takes up a lot of my time like cooking dinner for everyone, doing chores, etc.
And no one really leaves me to peace until it's night time.

@MoodyBats: I need to get back into digital! //shakes// I like to do more gesture or sketchy chibi/cute drawings.
Tell me about it! ;;-;; I thought my old was big!

I know what you mean or even what to use for a sketch brush and then coloring brush ;; I think a thin soft brush might be good to get the first ideas down but then for lines go in with a sharp brush? But I feel like I know all of these tips but they all go out of my head once I am at my desk, pen in my hand and getting down to actually picking the brush.
I have too many brushes already and I had to make a cheat sheet for myself

HUGS!!!! I hate that! I get bugged or the dogs are always pushed to me when they are behaving badly so I feel so cheesed off.
I stay up late and its when everyone even the dogs are asleep. However I never do anything other than watch videos or write a bit;;;;

@Shampoo: My art kinda varies sometimes.
I love having mutiple styles. I feel mine is between anime and realistic at times.

Right!? I accidentally underestimated it. I think i looked at the weight and not the actual size of it.
It's a lot longer than my laptop and my laptop is 15"

I use the sharp brush in medibang pro for sketching. I love it so much!
Wow that is so many brushes. I use like only...2 brushes. sometimes 3.
I am going to do some studies but test it out in krita because it has a chalk brush I absolutely adore. :vanora_heart:
[x] Blending practice I did with said brush.
You've definitely done a lot more with brushes than I have. I've just used round brush, sharp brush, chalk brush and of course air brush.
But tbh I hate using the air brush. So I only use air brush for special effects like glow effects.
like this
[x]

I do all my studying at night. But I try to go to bed before 2am so I usually start art
around 10pm and stop by 12:30am.
So it's a small window to art. I also get up late which does not help.
But i've been getting up by at least 12:30pm instead of :130pm so it's a small improvement. :vanora_sweat:
With my studies I am trying to do 100 of each practice.
