iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Every now and then there is no harm in grabbing a pencil and a sketchpad and just doodle some volumes for practice... Basics are not always fun, but they are important. Hadn't used traditional media so long, that I almost reflexively hit ctrl+z instead of reaching for the eraser...🙈

To all digital artists far and wide: What tools do you use? Like, which tablet, what software? Just kind of curious.😅 Atm I myself use a Wacom One and Photoshop (been using CSP forever, but really want to get deeper into the Adobe stuff)

Top 10 favourite Anime: Sailor Moon (OG) Dragon Ball (OG) One Piece My Hero Academia Shokojo Sera The Aristocrat's Otherworldly Adventure Death Note The Vision of Escaflowne (Series) Naruto Shippuden Shaman King Think Solo Leveling & Jujustu Kaisen might be knocking things down tho...😅

Not having much money for hotkey helpers and stuff like that, I resorted to getting Online Version of Stream Deck. Costs about €3,00 an month, but I get all the hotkeys I want! Hope I can upgrade at some point, but for now, it's going to be a big help for using my buttonless drawingtablet.😅

... Paying attention that the linearts are also on different layers is way more chaotic, than I am used to ... Not perfect, but mine. Not finished... and may never be. But that's okay. Hope I can manage to finalize a few things. Want to see if I'm even close to what I am picturing.😅 #art #vtuber

Every time I do this... It just renews my respect for the craft. It's harder than it looks and it's more painful as well. Timer set to 60 seconds at the time and even tho I "only" made it through 10 minutes, my hand is feeling it. Want to try to know one of these out on a daily practice.

Today is a low-key-battery day... Have to head to the doc a bit and later on I'm going to chomp down on some cheese brats. Really looking forward to them, because they comfort grub. Have a great day, everyone! Really hope I get charged quick and can be a bit more active again.🍀

I'm getting the feeling, that a tubby/thicc Raccoon-Girl, would be awesome! They short. They stout. They cute. They grabby.

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 03/03/2024

On one side, I am really glad that there are a ton of tutorials out there, for pretty much everything... But how to setup an VTube Avatar and how to rig it... it feels like a ton. Hope I found the right ones by now. Don't even want to be overly complicated...😅 I'll get there. I'll get there.

New challenge unlocked: Gesture Drawing. It's unbelievable how fast a minute is over...😅

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 28/02/2024

WIP... but Progress it is! Really enjoying and liking it so far. Going with styles completely out of my comfort zone. But I guess, that's how we grow! I know. I know: It's not much or special to most people, but I am actually happy with the effort I've put into it.💚

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 28/02/2024

Got up around 3AM today and finished sketching my value shapes and skels around 5ish... been working on this on and off since then, did some chores and stuff inbetween... but now it's time for a break. Had a ton of fun but I just need to get my head into something else... so gaming it is! Hehe.

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 26/02/2024

I know it's not much... but putting in the work on a daily base, is new to me. It's harder then it looks to keep up concentration, but I don't have any expectations atm. Sometime these days I have to make a comparison piece... Something I can redraw in a few months or so, to see the difference.🤔

When you're obviously hunger for something sweet and lacking the ingredients. Well! Might as well make the best of it. Not bad for a rushed piece and a first time using this style.💚

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 26/02/2024

Being motivated doesn't do all too much when you're just too exhausted to use the motivation in any way. I haven't been able to sleep last night and now my brain is mush. Tried to draw a bit, because I want to stick to it hard this time around... but to little concentration atm. Might take a nap.

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 25/02/2024

I may not be the best, most skilled, famous or whatnot... but even I know, that Art is something not to be rushed. Wether it's your hobby, just something to do while hanging on the phone, your job or your passion: Please try to enjoy it. And don't make force and pressure harden the block.

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 24/02/2024

So... basics starting today and now. Sure I'll still be doing other stuff, but I really really want to see this through. Just some practice some fundamentals. I never really learned them to a degree that I actually used them. It looks simple, but it took some time nonetheless.😅

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 24/02/2024

Just wanted to catch up on the new Solo Leveling episode... WHY... WHY did it have to be a freaking recap episode? AFTER 7 episodes no one needs those! We're only getting 12 episodes in the season all together, and then they put a filler in? Not happy about it. Tbh. 😭😭😭

🌈Hubby was able to save the tablet! Woohoo!🌈

Either a boost or a purchase would really help. Etsy, despite their rapaciousness with their fees, still gives me the better cut than direct from my POD storefronts. Barring that, I also have Ko-Fi link in my bio:

cartoon Godzilla wearing Link's costume from Legend of Zelda with a green pointed cap, green tunic, brown spats, and a Master Sword and Shield that are actually the Monster Sword and Shield with various Godzilla-universe characters adorning each.

RIP my dear drawing tablet... I can only hope that I can squeeze a little more life out of my older one.🍀

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 23/02/2024

😭My tablet is showing first signs of decay... Sure, it's been used... but that it now has to constantly be reminded that it is what it is, is indeed worrying me a bit... Only had it for about 5 years now... Really hope it doesn't die on me soon.🥺

Not bad for a speed-thrown-together-temp-solution... 🙈 Even if I would be hating it, it just will have to do for now.😅

Even tho I've been drawing - admittedly on and off - since I can hold a pencil, progress has never really started going the way I'd always hoped... So... stepping back to basics and taking in from there again. Not solely... but partly... Curious where this is going to take me.

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 23/02/2024

No more: "If... then..." "But..." "When this... then that..." No. More. Excuses.

To the Vtubers of the world: How Did you pick your avatar? I hear my voice, and anything I can think of just doesn't feel fitting to my voice... Ist that an issue? Should I just try to get over it and do as I please? 😅

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 22/02/2024

Not sure I'm happy with the base-color palette yet... and I am certain I'll be resketching a few designs before I settle for one... but for now, my gut tells me: You want to finish this! So maybe... just... maybe I'll be able to settle for her color scheme with this one. That would be nice. <nods>

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 21/02/2024

Damn... Just starting to realize how much work the rigging of a VTube Model is... Had a ton of respect befor knowing this, or at least having watched a view videos on the topic... But now... Jeez. Respect. You all must have hell of a lot of patience.😮

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 21/02/2024

Baby steps - right? Just a little line art, working on concept drawings for my first game project. It starts with sketches and lines, with colors and then more sketches, notes and thoughts.

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 21/02/2024

Thinking about taking up streaming... and trying to figure out where to go. YouTube ... well ... it's YouTube and my GPU could be utilized, being an Arc A770... Twitch... Not sure, to be fair... Now I read a bit about Picarto. Anyone with some experience there? 🥺

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 20/02/2024

Okay... Okay... 1st: Pick type of game 2nd: Pick the engine 3rd: Pick the language - even tho some engines are very self-decisive when it comes to that My biggest trouble will always be, getting stuff organized so I don't get flooded with trying to do all at once. Baby steps. No need to rush.🤔

If some people become writers in their 60's, then I can become a Game Dev in my late 30's! 💪

Damn... Finally coming up with some cool name-ideas... and especially: LOGO Ideas! ... But... yeah... Now find a way to check if they're not already taken. Don't want any trouble so... yeah... Research. Yay. 😅

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 20/02/2024

I'm not the only person dreaming... ... of becoming a Game Dev. ... of becoming a Prof. Artist ... of creating for a living. And I am happy that I'm not the only one, that there are so many likeminded and awesome people in the world. So, here's a toast to all of us! Please, never stop dreaming.💚

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 20/02/2024

It will never seize to amaze me what some people are capable of! Sometimes in a bad way. Sometimes in a good way. But seeing all the art and notions of creative souls will always make my day better.💚

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 19/02/2024

Finding the right name for a gaming studio is harder than one would think... I do not want to name it "Aveny" or "Artist Behind Screen" ... So... yeah... atm tossing around thoughts... alot. 😅

I may be the more poor type of creator, so I guess I can try and support this way:

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 19/02/2024

Luckily using my sketches as banner material helped me relax my wrist, what is probably good for overall recovery... Even tho it's itching in my fingers and I won't be able to hold myself back for all to long...😅 Profile feels a bit more complete now. Not perfect. But complete.👍

000

Aveny @avenydraws.bsky.social · 19/02/2024

When an idea just hits you and, no matter how much your wrist is hurting today, you just have to at least bringt a sketch down... Still have to work on my profile, I know... but when it strikes it strikes... Nooby (future!) Game Dev just capturing ideas so they do not escape! 😅
