It just takes time and practice and unfortunately it can't really be rushed.
and i am in such a rushy mood lately. [sweat]
My style, for the most part, has changed though.

I can always tell right away that the nose is off. I am just like "NOPE! SHE IS NOT VOLDEMORT!"

Antagonist 01-17-2019 01:41 AM

So long as you're improving that's good right? :)

I usually focus on how the nose looks crooked so I guess that's why I haven't noticed how Voldemort-y they are. xD;;

MoodyBats 01-17-2019 01:49 AM

Can't say I am improving tbh.
doesn't feel like it. [lol]
I'm probably not as i don't draw often.

I just try to see if my proportions look right.
if the mouth is too low or too high, etc.

Antagonist 01-17-2019 04:43 AM

Most of the time these days I try to get my eyes to look less like those shoujo-esque giant eyes that take up a large portion of the face. It's harder than I thought. Small eyes are hard. [headdesk]

MoodyBats 01-17-2019 05:06 AM

I can't stand those gigantic eyes [lol]
I try to achieve realistic eyes.

Antagonist 01-17-2019 07:35 AM

Saaame but given that I started practicing drawing based off of Yu-Gi-Oh...yeah the eyes are still a problem for me. [rofl]

MoodyBats 01-17-2019 08:13 AM

Yeah. I look at tons of artists[a lot are semi realism] so I kinda just see
which style i like the most/want to try.

Antagonist 01-18-2019 12:50 AM

Yeah I didn't get into semi-realism until a long time after I started drawing. I think it was because of Oblivion and Skyrim that I wanted to start drawing more realistically.

MoodyBats 01-18-2019 06:09 AM

semi realism is pretty much all i want to draw [lol]

Antagonist 01-18-2019 02:09 PM

I hope you get there! :) Arting good is hard.

MoodyBats 01-18-2019 05:03 PM

I will, just gotta practice.
A lot. [rofl]

Antagonist 01-19-2019 02:54 AM

Yes > _< So much practicing lol.

MoodyBats 01-19-2019 06:56 PM

I probably won't get to crack down on practice
until i return home.

Antagonist 01-20-2019 05:09 AM

Oh are you still at your cousin's? :O

MoodyBats 01-21-2019 11:12 PM

I am home now.
Just got home today.
had very little technology time since my cousin loved watching movies
and didn't go outside for too many days.

But glad to be home.
Now i can work on gesture drawing and well..get a job.

Antagonist 01-22-2019 12:49 AM

Yay for being home! How is the work coming along? I remember something about a family member helping you get a transcribing job? :O

MoodyBats 01-22-2019 01:34 AM

Haven't applied for it since i was going on this mini vacation.

Antagonist 01-22-2019 03:33 AM

Oh, are you going to apply for it now that you're back? :O

MoodyBats 01-22-2019 03:51 AM

Have to take a test and they'll contact me within 48 hours.
but need to plan it out on a day my dad will be available to take me to get a bank account and a paypal set up
and such.

My cousin thinks i should also set up a patreon but idk.

Antagonist 01-22-2019 04:40 AM

I don't know how patreons works though I've seen it mentioned around a lot, that and Co-Fi too. PayPal sounds the easiest and most popular way to go. o _o

What kind of test would it be? Is it just to test the speed of your typing?

MoodyBats 01-22-2019 06:04 AM

you have to have paypal to sign up for these sites i think lol.
And it's not super easy if someone scams you through paypal.

not sure since i haven't taken it yet lol

Antagonist 01-22-2019 06:15 AM

Ugh yeah, I think I've read about a few cases of PayPal scams on tumblr, posted by some artists who came across the scams before.

Well whatever the test may be, good luck with it! [lol]

MoodyBats 01-22-2019 06:47 AM

yeah. and some customers claim they received nothing and
can't really do anything for the artist who is being scammed.

yeah. i think the test is to see just if I would be able to do this job and they let me know
in 48 hours. so probably it's speed of words and grammar.
which i am good at both.

Antagonist 01-22-2019 11:01 AM

Yeah, or they pretend to send the money but then rescind it so the artist doesn't end up getting anything.

Sounds like you should ace the thing then! [boogie]

MoodyBats 01-22-2019 08:06 PM

Either way, it's pretty easy to get scammed through paypal which is why
I am not starting commissions.

Patreon you can do monthly awards for those who pay for it.
There is usually different awards though. Like for example, voice over tutorials, PSD files, etc.
so you can do a lot of different things for patreon.

I told my cousin about Ko-Fi since she is an artist and a lot of artists use it.

Yeah probably. just have to pick a day my dad will be available if i get it.
