that was my intention

2019-02-10 04:25:40 UTC  

Probably because people were making the art get lost in shitposting. That should be less of an issue now with our new gallery manager. 😃

2019-02-10 10:28:22 UTC  

@O.K It looks good, but i have one suggestion, if you're interested in a bit of criticism.

@Bahrack Obamcuddah that's probably better placed in one of the general or politics channels than the art channel

2019-02-10 12:07:51 UTC  

battle ready

2019-02-10 12:17:40 UTC  

Ping me or <@&543752921234276382> if art is drowned by shitposts, they will be sorted asap. <:maulerHeart:339124719553085440>

It makes me confused.

2019-02-10 12:39:06 UTC  

Make it simpler, my mindbrain hurts.

@n0vitski of course I'm interested.
This is the main reason I'm posting my stuff here. There are bound to be people more experienced than me, and they may have some really good advice. : )

@O.K So, about this piece, i'd suggest adding more color in the darkest shadows, since they just look black and grey. It's passable on the clothes, since they are pretty desaturated, but on the skin it looks really dead. You did a good job with reddish shadows on the face, but the hands and the arms - not so much. I suspect you're using multiply layer for shadows, and if so, it's really not a very great idea, since in the darker areas it tends to just kill the color, no matter how saturated the layer itself is. I would actually recommend for the most part to work with color in normal and not employ other mixing options for anything except for finish. Also, don't use the same hue for the shadows as you do for the lights, make it a bit colder, or a bit warmer, it will look more natural.

2019-02-10 20:01:00 UTC  

Overall, black/grey shadows = bad, saturated shadows = great

2019-02-10 20:22:42 UTC  

@n0vitski well, actually, as stupid as it may sound, that was the idea...
originally, all shadows were saturated, but I wanted to try and make her eye color pop a lot... so I put a brown (opposite of blue) overlay over the entire piece, and erased it around her face, so that everything except her face and eyes (and the stars in the background) is brown, which in theory, should contrast really well with her blue eyes. I guess it didn't work too well 😂

2019-02-10 20:24:18 UTC  

I mean, they are pretty blue.

2019-02-10 20:24:32 UTC  

Almost *too* blue...

2019-02-10 20:24:57 UTC  

<:hyperthink:462282519883284480>

2019-02-10 20:26:50 UTC  

Yeah, they are, but the rest of the piece suffered because of that brownish tint

2019-02-10 20:27:38 UTC  

Yeah.

2019-02-10 20:29:06 UTC  

To be honest, i don't think the eyes would be lost anyway.

2019-02-10 20:30:14 UTC  

If you have psd file saved and it's on a separate layer, you could just remove the tint, i guess.

2019-02-10 20:30:29 UTC  

But it's up to you.

2019-02-10 23:14:17 UTC  

WIP in peace.

2019-02-11 03:31:42 UTC  

cuz i suck pipe at photoshop

2019-02-11 05:58:00 UTC  

@NITZEREBB this is blocked in Russia, because "it contains material from partner [Merlin] PIAS"

2019-02-11 05:59:10 UTC  

I assume it's your own original music, so i thought you may be interested to hear about it

2019-02-11 06:01:15 UTC  

I tried connecting through VPN, but it's blocked there as well it seems.

2019-02-11 06:02:48 UTC  

I think the VPN i'm using is Finnish. Not entirely sure, because i'm not the one paying for it, a friend shared his config with me.

2019-02-11 06:11:06 UTC  

Actually, no, it's Bulgarian.

2019-02-11 09:00:19 UTC  

@Stryker0208 you're walking a dangerous line

2019-02-11 09:07:58 UTC  

I just suggested to a russian artist who was considering using Patreon for nsfw content to use Subscribe Star instead. I'm doing my part

Fake language

2019-02-11 09:12:32 UTC  

Yes.

2019-02-11 09:41:47 UTC  

is that moon speak? that's heresy

2019-02-11 10:51:16 UTC  

It's Mordor speak

2019-02-11 10:51:34 UTC  

Moonspeak is weebaneese.

2019-02-11 11:03:20 UTC  

@Stryker0208 1h+ or don't even try
