Apparently , even though I turned the time-lapse tool on from my last piece, it didn't save being set to on, so this whole piece wasn't saved as a time-lapse...

Cool

Anyways, sorry I haven't posted in a while, hopefully will actually change that and post more soon. I've been seeing a lot of Danny phantom art and wanted to make some as well. It's been way too long since I made some since it was one of my favorite shows growing up.

You remember how either the Clip studio art program updated or reset on me? I apparently needed to turn on the time lapse again, so this piece and possibly next one will not have any time lapses.

The Little Prince is a movie I saw in high school. I know it's a book, but I've never read it. This version of the story might seem a little drawn out. I honestly haven't seen any other version of this either, but even if it gets a little slow at times, I do like the movie. I love the snake and the fox, and I hadn't seen it in a long time. It had recently come onto Netflix and I wanted to make a little something.

I’m trying to build myself up again.

So I had mentioned before that, because of all the stuff happening everywhere (Palestine, Congo, all the atrocities happening), I had mentioned how terrible I felt and that I didn’t know if I could post art or just go about my days.

It stinks when, virtually, it seems like so many people are on the same page, while everything and everyone irl seem not to care or just go about their day like literal murdering is happening to innocent people. I just feel so guilty when having a good day and not mentioning about things or posting about it online. I mean it’s the least I could do, right.

On TikTok, I haven’t posted anything I’ve done since November I believe? And basically all I have been doing is reposting news and support, but still I haven’t done more than that. Even then I feel immense guilt, but I also feel useless and not knowing what to do next while also trying to live in America.

I haven’t felt really happy and just been surviving mentally, trying to find something to be happy about and then feeling terrible that I was. I don’t know what to do and drawing has been the last thing I think about…

There have been times when I get into something (something that I happen to stumble upon) and I feel like I could start drawing again, but then the guilt and depression returns and stifles it. At the moment I’ve recently come across the graphic novels of the teen titans from Kami Garcia and Gabriel Picolo. It’s just so good and I really want to either make fan art or do something, but I’m like wavering on wanting to do it and feel something and just staying in my room. :/

I did this because apparently people are either making art of them or are just taking pictures of them and putting it in their profile today cause it's Reem and Khalid's birthday. I had another version of this, but I ultimately went with this because honestly, I'm not too sure how to feel about even posting this. This is a fucking tragedy and I might be doing this with good intensions, but I'm still on the fence that bringing emotional moments back into their view. I mean possibly because bombs are still dropping, many people, possibly everyone don't have any access to the internet. There are people dead. Innocent people that should never have to feel this, to live this, to suffer as most of our leaders do not care. I am deeply saddened and I want this to end. I don't want to live in this world where people think all these deaths are justified. That this is allowed

I honestly don’t know when I’m going to post art again. Like there is so much wrong with the world today, I honestly just can’t draw. I am so saddened by all of what my country’s leaders are doing when it comes to Palestine (mainly) but also like no light being shed on other place’s dilemma. I mean I know it’s not new. It’s like making a post like this, if I were to get any interaction is just asking for people to say where have you been. But honestly my fyp on TikTok is just filled with videos showing either the terrible tragedies of the Palestinian people and people trying to show their support for Palestinian. I just can’t bring myself to draw…

Reminder that because of my file being big, I had to save on multiple ones, copy and pasting it to another file if it got too big. Once the background was finally finished and the figure was basically done I combined the two and did some last minute editing. Of course I decided to do more and that file became a lot.

I decided once I reached a certain size, I'd just make a time-lapse of that and finish the rest on another file. I probably went through like 4 or 5 tbh. But I'm actually happy with how it turned out (at least the werewolf itself lol)

FINALLY!!!!

For real tho my computer messed me up and I guess I just need to clean it out. I know that there is a bit of the outline of the wolf showing and the background isn't fully drawn, but I've made too many lines and I've had to save on multiple files (transferring the previous file onto the new one). I had lost progress when I messed up, and it's like into the second third week into October. I'm gonna take whatever victories I can. I don't care that the wolf isn't done, but I just wanted to show you guys where I'm at,

I don't know what happened... but it's all my fault. I accidentally saved the clip file as a jpeg WITH the line art on the background I tried looking for ways to find the file I got to that point on cause I deleted it (like emptied out the recycling bin). Then I pressed this thing to see if it could recover any possible backups and now the program reset itself or something and my tools are gone... not all of them, but my usual tools

including the one I was currently using before this whole thing happened...

I want to quit

I want to go back

why am I so stupid????

Bad news...

I've reached the point where the file is too big. The only good thing at the moment is that I was able to copy the layers onto another file and save that. What's even more upsetting, however, is that I wasn't able to make a timelapse of the BG that I did manage to make. I decided to just close the original file without saving, so that I could open it up again and try to save the timelapse at whatever point in time the file last saved, but I can't open the file anymore...

So at this point in time I've decided to not make a timelapse of the remaining BG even after I finish and hope that I can just finish the BG without further incident. I'll try to save as a jpeg and just put it as the actual background of the piece and hope that this won't make the figure's file too full either.

If it comes down to it. I'd rather have the finished piece of just the picture than a broken up timelapse...

I know this has probably been long over as a trend, but I wanted to make a little something.

My spidersona: The wolf spider (I'm pretty sure it's already been taken. Another name could be The Bolivian wolf spider or something of that nature, but I'm not full Bolivian, so I don't think that's a good substitute.) Some of the outfit designs are based on some of the Bolivian cultural fashion. Mainly cholitas

Just a little note/update

Thursday night, my dad had a health scare, but he was lucky enough to get to the emergency room before it got too dangerous. He was in the beginning stages of suffering a heart attack. At this moment in time, he's doing okay and is home, but he will need to relax and watch his habits.

Because of this, I might possibly not make a September art post, though I am close to being done with the spidersona piece. Not sure how far to finish it. If I should leave it to the point of having flat colors, or if I should do some shadows and highlights.

I don’t really want this to be my only September art piece, but this honestly might be it. Considering a lot of my time is being focused on my Halloween piece. I also have like a ‘creative’ journal where I make diary like entries, doodle, and even roast myself.

For example:

I thought this was a nice enough doodle to post, but hopefully I can either finish my spidersona thing or get something made and post before the month’s over.

Okay I've got some poses picked out for my annual Halloween piece, but I can't decide between the two.

The left one I started with first because I wanted to try and have a dynamic pose with some perspective, but I wasn't feeling it as much since I don't usually have this kind of thing. I can definitely work on it more ( I got about 2 months; before the end of October) to work on it.

On the right I decided to try another pose out from the few examples I doodled earlier this year (or last year) and I already like how it looks. Usually when that happens I can definitely pick it up quickly and get it done easier and faster, but I know I got to try and make it with time and care too.

Even if I don't finish before the end of the month (and I know I won't because tomorrow my brother has a game) I wanted to at least make a WIP of what I'm gonna be working on. Won't say that I'll even finish it next month, cause I don't know my time then. I might draw something else or something outside of drawing might just take my time.

I will definitely do my best in getting my annual Halloween tradition at least worked on before the month of October. I definitely have some poses in mind and honestly can't wait, but for now, this will probably be all I'm posting for August.

I haven’t been feeling so good, and there’s been a bunch of things going on so I haven’t been feeling up to being on my computer to do anything, more or less draw, so since I had my sketchbook near, I did a little Hobie doodle

Yes it was an amazing movie. I loved everything, though I need to draw my favorite character asap (ps it's Hobie). Honestly I love how simple The Spot can be. It definitely helps if you need something to draw and you can keep the freaking sketch layer on the canvas lol.

I really need to stop posting so late in the month lol

Wanted to see if I could work more with my old characters
