This one the head exploded a bit when it was fired though oof

I ended up just rolling with it and using glaze to glue the pieces of forehead back on which actually kinda worked tbh

I don’t have any experience in ceramics, is it like hand-sculpted spinning wheels?

No spinning wheels lol

The thing pots are made on, I don’t know what they’re called

For masks I would take a hunk of newspaper and shape it vaguely to what I needed, make it really hard to use as a bit of a mold I guess? Not sure the proper wording

I dont know either, I didnt do many pots

LOL

I just built up around some newspaper on that one

I should have thinned out the forehead though because it ended up getting really thick. And then there's the obvious anatomical mistakes I didnt understand back then but I am still kinda proud of it for being in highschool at the time

I think if I were to make a mask of ceramics or clay, it would be far more angular, almost as if the art style for Jojo’s Bizzare Adventure were on an actual facr

Then again, I like angular things

I like angular stuff as well, I'd only done ceramics for a year though

Made me kinda sad because I was getting better and better. Buuuut I'll be able to do it again soon.

Gonna have to relearn though

That was one of the last things I did before I graduated, I think.

Here's an old drawing from the same time though

Apparently a newer version

I need to get back into doing more traditional stuff tbh

Nice, I couldn’t even dream of drawing stuff like that

I doubt that's true, anyone can draw given enough time

Besides I still have glaring issues with anatomy as it stands 4 years later

😅

For some reason when I do studies things turn out mostly normal. But as soon as I start trying to apply that to a drawing with clothes or anything added it falls apart

My problem is a scaling issue, hands are twice the size of the head, and fatter than the Pillsbury Dough Boy

I have a rigged drawing reference in blender that I take screenshots with, but even with that, accessories like guns, weapons and armour are hard to draw for me

I have a hard time with perspective and keeping the whole picture in mind

If it’s not a diagram I have a hard time drawing it

Yeahhh

Weapon diagrams are fun though

When I try to stray from references I start fucking up immediately and I always underestimate things like foreshortening. It would help if I focused on getting better at art, but I like to do everything at once

Like, I like learning instruments, photography, mycology (And ecology), and I wanna do them all at once and I wont master anything as a result <.<

I’m pretty much the other way around, I tend to focus on one thing and one thing only until I get bored of it or inturrupted

oof

I feel like a failure of an autist in that regard

Granted I do tunnel vision on stuff but... it's lots of stuff

... I forgot other things like hiking and camping and my massive rock collection and other stuff.
