I love how fluid your sketch work is! how do you get confident in posting sketches without them feeling sloppy or unfinished?

thank you!! when i think about it, there are basically two main things that lead to me posting a bunch of sketches:

1.a lot of the time a pile of sketches is the only thing i have the energy/attention span/stamina to create. it's this or nothing!

and

2. i like my sketches! i am very often self-conscious/down on myself about the fact that the overall balance of what i post online is far more sketches/draft work than polished illustrations, but i'm not bothered by the fact that individual sketches are sloppy/unfinished, if that makes sense.

basically this may not be an answer that's specifically helpful to you but for me it's not a confidence thing so much as just the fact that sketch work is what works for me. i don't think Ability To Post should be the end-all be-all of drawing stuff; if the idea of posting your sketches makes you feel anxious or uncertain, i think it's worth it to ask yourself if maybe it's just okay that you don't like posting unfinished stuff, rather than automatically considering that discomfort something that has to be Worked Through. (this is my very specific perspective coming from a place where agonizing over things being Good Enough To Post has done more to dent my confidence/make me freeze up and feel art blocked than anything else; practicing moving away from Posting Stuff as the end goal of drawing has been really valuable for me.)

if in the end u are really like "no, i WANT to learn to be cool with it," and/or "the end goal of posting stuff publicly IS really important to me," you can always start small! posting first to a private account or sharing w friends on discord first, rather than hucking it directly to strangers on main, can be an easier way to get into it; or maybe you'll find it easier to collect a bunch of sketches and post them all at once, instead of one at a time. also anyone who would think anything rude about you posting scraps/wips is a joyless dickhead anyway, so do keep that in mind

I'm easy to please. Donald as a private eye fills me with joy every time. Look how happy he is! He's living his dream!

It sux that there's this like unspoken rule in the scanlation community that you shouldn't translate/scanlate something if it's already being worked on or if there's already a translation unless the existing translation is low quality/old. Japanese is so absolutely different from English that you could have 5 different translations of a story and each one of them would have a completely different vibe and even after reading all 5 of them, you might have a slight idea of what the original text's vibe was like. I think people should just translate whatever tf they want as many times as they want.

Not to mention, on top of all the complexities of getting Japanese into English, that having multiple translations allows each translator to reference each others' work and improve their existing translations. Like, if you ever wanna give translating some of the Guilty Gear literature a go - whether seriously or just as translation/Japanese practice - please feel free to use my existing translations as a reference. I know I'm making mistakes on these things but no one else has translated most of the stuff I've posted so my uncertainties on some lines come down to a big shrug and as best a guess as I can make haha

I checked but they already closed their form for some reason

Hi do you think we have ever seen Cameron sneeze?

hmmmm, you know what, anon? I'M REALLY NOT SURE.

also i know you said cameron & not ian, but this makes me think about how unless it's a part of the plot (???), we don't really see characters have normal bodily functions like sneezing.

wow... i am going to... think about this... lmao.

update on this project in the tags

I was like "oh I've played the flute since elementary school I wonder how many hours approximately that is" because as we all know once you hit 10,000 hours in something you become a master at it anyway I did a lot of math and came up with a whopping total of

800 measly hours 🤭🤭

- It hurts, you know.

- Not only did you do something stupid by sacrificing yourself, but you also lied to me at the same time! You left me!

- Coward!

- Fine, fine. If you don't want to do it in a good way, let's do it in a bad way.

- Let me in because I need to change the colour of my ink!

- Ha, you did not expect this, did you?! There you go! A very serious and important reason to go inside the House of Bones! C’mon?!

-  Let me in, Sasha. Please. I want to see you. Even if you’re... not the same, I just need to know that you are still alive... at least in some way.

Most problems that need repeat scanning usually are not serious and approximately 15% of scans will must be repeated for one cause or another.

If the scan is carried out too early (i.e. earlier than 6 weeks), you may not see the heartbeat.
