@Valefor: Thank you for letting me know. I'll see about getting the line art and coloring done when I can.

@Yandere: Lol, all good. Not really sure when I'll be doing it again. On a closed species discord I'm in, there is an event that's going on. I gotta create a Seoc for someone on there. :) I already have a few ideas.
Its the same exact thing for me, so I get it. And I agree, the pandemic hasn't really been the easiest thing to deal with. There isn't really much we can do at the time being.

That makes sense. A friend of mine told me that emotes are a good 258x258, not sure if that helps. XD Also, I wish you luck on getting your things on toyhouse done for your characters. :) I should do the same, but I'm lazy. xD

I can't wait to see it, once you post it, that is. But I wish you luck with it. Just take your time with your art. :)
I downloaded a few for star/galaxy ones. I need to find a few more though. xD The ones I have I can't change the colors for the galaxy unless I use the hue shift, and I keep forgetting where to find it. And I understand on that completely, I've been using those mostly for background and not on clothing. Plus that reason there is why there is a pink version of my persona's dress. xD
Yeah it does. :) We could just send the CSP files to eachother over discord if we draw eachother's characters. XD But only if you want to.

Yeah, it does. Dx
Nothing wrong with alternating, everyone streams something different and some people can be more chill. Some streamers even have set days they stream on. I should see about doing that soon and probably alternating between art and game streams for certain days. But I'm not sure yet.
I understand on that, most of my friends commission me too, but I think it counts. But I also get that art is just a hobby for you. I honestly with I could throw the virtual money at you too. xD I need more cute chibis of either Prisma or Jace and Shyla from you. I would offer up my persona for you to draw her in one of her alt outfits, but I remember you said she was too hard to draw, and I don't wanna over whelm you.
I get the stable job thing. Right now, RLC and streaming (if people sub) is the only way for me to make a little money, but I do agree that it isn't stable in the slightest. A few friends of mine are buying art from me. So far, its just been for $5 each, but its ok. :)
Yes! I'd totally be down for a trade! But I'm gonna have to wait til after the event that I was telling you about. Plus I have a character in mind already. :) I got her design from a friend of mine since she was going on a moth kick a while back.

It is a pretty neat system, plus I think its nice that its implemented. I would love everyone that watched and follows me to use the emotes too, you know? I don't want them to feel that they have to pay to use the emotes with real money. Especially since I have them up on my discord for use on there.
Yeah, pretty much. I don't really do much on the competitive side since I've never really been competitive myself. I usually just take my time with things and have a lot of fun with it. :)

@Valefor: Sketch is all done. What do you think? I finished the sketch up on my stream tonight.
Posted in Starting from scratch. ;;; Posted 4 years ago


@Yandere: Yeah, sorry that my streams are at really odd hours of the night. X_X;; I haven't been able to sleep at night, despite feeling really tired. I could lay down in bed for hours at a time and I still couldn't fall asleep.

Random question, for the doll like doodle, like in your sig post, do you draw that in a square or do you draw it in a different way? I'm mostly just curious on that part. ^^;;
I understand. Most of my stuff on my streams has been personal or for other people. There isn't much of an in between. But I wish you luck on getting your personal art or what ever else done. :)
Lol, I've been watching videos every so often or asking friends for advice on it. A few friends has given me a lot of pointers on good brushes to use. But I understand on wanting to stick with what you know. Hell, I'm the same way. xD Took me a while to finally give in and try something different since my copy of Sai has been acting up. XwX;;

Yeah, pretty much the point of it. Have a better emote? Hope someone buys a higher tier sub to use it and you make money off of it, but it really depends on the person and if they like the content of your streams. I think the price for tier 1 is about $9 or so. I know once I reach 15 subs, I can add in another emote to it, but I know at least 2 to 3 people subbed to me by using their free month of Amazon Prime. I don't think it gives me much, but I think its ok. I think I have about $5 currently on my twitch from subs, but I wouldn't know how much it would take me to pay out on it. If I was to guess, maybe $50, could be lower, could be higher, I'd have to check. But I'm also not expecting to make money off of my subs as well as my art work. I know a lot of people call it cute though, but trying to sell art for RLC is a pain. One thing is for sure, if you ever do and I had the money, I'd be throwing it at you and telling you to draw as much as you want. xD
Yeah, I think its just a restriction kind of thing, you know? But I think its also because it encourages people to be active in the stream as well as talk in it. The more points they gather, they can buy the emote to use for 24hrs or highlight a message in a stream. I've done it a few times in a friends stream, both buying the emote and highlighting a message. According to twitch, its for user engagement and to make the chat more lively, but I don't really think it works for smaller channels like mine. But my friends like using it, so that's all that matters to me. :)

@Yandere: Lol, its cool. And sorry you missed that stream, but I'll probably have another one in the future.

Yeah, I think your regular size you draw on should be fine, you just have to resize it once you're done. You don't have to draw on the entire canvas to make one though.
Even if you decide to get it for animation or not, its a good program. The brushes aren't too bad either. :) Plus there are tons of brushes you can download that other people has made. I have a few a friend has sent me to use too. They are really good for lineart.

Yeah, they can buy it, but its only to be used on your channel only and they can use it for only 24 hours. But you gain about 50 points for watching 10 minutes or so and you also gain about 10 points over time. Its really cool.

@Valefor: Hey, I wanted to give you an update on your commission. I've only worked on the face part. I'll post another sketch update when I can.
Posted in Starting from scratch. ;;; Posted 4 years ago


@Yandere: Lol, she's really awesome, plus I think she usually makes anyone feel really welcome. :) Plus feel free to ask questions about the game I'm playing if needed. Especially if its Graveyard Keeper. Anyone new to that game can get really confused. I know I was when I first played it til I watched a few videos.
The best advice I can give for emotes is to draw on a bigger canvas, but make sure its still in a square shape. I usually draw in a 500x500 canvas, so it helps. Plus if your art program has a way of resizing it built in, that helps too. All you'd need to do is just type in what you want to resize it to. I'm pretty happy that I learned that pretty quickly on CSP. That's probably the best program I've ever bought alone for my art work. I'm so happy I got it on sale.
Yeah lol, I'm glad its much crisper than my first attempt. I'll probably try to do more emotes later.
Yeah, so far a few people have used them. :) Plus since I have it enabled for people to buy the emotes through stream points, a whole lot of people can use them.
Posted in Starting from scratch. ;;; Posted 4 years ago


@Yandere: Everyone that's been in my chat is pretty friendly so far. MagicSweetChi is usually in there and is the one to greet just about anyone. Same goes for Tiny Woosh. They are my mods.
Yes, lol. Though that emote is for my subs. But since there are stream points on my server, people can buy the emote with the points they gathered up. I would love to buy some from you if you decide to do so. xD
Yeah, I didn't know this til yesterday night. I was able to resize a icon I made for my stream points using that. I drew it up on a 500x500, and I was able to resize it down to 28x28, 56x56, and 112x112. You gotta upload each file like that too. One of my friends on twitter usually resizes her emotes down to 258x258 and goes from there.
I actually re did the emotes, so I think it looks much better than it did before.
Both are 28x28.
Old version

New version, less pixelated.


Yeah, you'd think so, but not a lot of people are doing that.
Posted in Starting from scratch. ;;; Posted 4 years ago


@Yandere: Lol, feel free to talk if you want. :) I just recently uploaded an emote on there for twitch subs for Tier 1, but with the stream points (mine are called floofs) people can buy the emote and use it. But people can't buy Tier 2 and 3 emotes sadly, so I think I'm just gonna keep it it with Tier 1 for my stream emotes. Mostly so everyone can use it. :) But I gotta wait til twitch approves it, but I might remove it so I can resize it correctly. I figured out how to resize things on CSP without it looking like a pixelated mess now.

I know, right? But I think its because people aren't really posting that much due to wanting to either binge watch things or play games. But who really knows.

@Valefor: Thank you for the clear ref. She looks really cute! <3 But the background on her really ties her together. <3

Send the trade request when you can, I'll accept it when I can. I will send a sketch when I can get around to it.
Posted in Starting from scratch. ;;; Posted 4 years ago


@Yandere: Yeah, lol. I have been streaming a whole lot and I reached 50 follows on twitch. xD

They are also slow over there on Gaia, so it doesn't really surprise me that its slow here too.
Posted in Starting from scratch. ;;; Posted 4 years ago


@Yandere: Yeah. I decided to try again. I'm probably not gonna be very active unless I'm talking to friends like you and stuff. I'm also trying to sell art on here again.
