Tip jar, but also early bird kind of access to stuff, behind scenes content, but also materials, like brushes and textures. Some people use patreon to take requests what new tutorial could be about.

Having someone yell at him in this state - probably in foreign language he doesn't speak - is NOT gonna help in the slightest I wish I had time to sit down and draw that a h

I recall Taran Fiddler and gallogamelady had some decent pointers posted somewhere online on similarities between facial features between humans and animals, especially muzzles and noses I had the same trouble but backwards, I had to learn drawing humans when I was mostly drawing animals earlier

I feel like "it might not be for me" would be a good response too.

the only that comes to my mind is pillowfort, there are no circles, but you can decide if post is seen by mutuals or followers, if it can be forwarded or commented, there are communities but they're public. although the site isn't that popular, userbase is rather small

I use irfanview with a plugin that allows to open and preview webp files. I just open them in IF and save file as png. Kinda time consuming workaround. I know there are browser plugins to save webp as png when grabbing file, but I don't really trust those :'V

Some time ago I got my hands on dandelion honey (not the vegan one, it was regular one made by bees) and it smelled SO good. Great for tea.

God their little pawbs..... whenever I see their stuff i want to try felting again. May I ask what the claws are made with? Is that wire?

Yeah! yeah, i agree. Social media blurred borders between boundaries and made it easier for some people to be more intrusive towards creators. In "best" cases fans do that unknowingly, because they want to see themselves in someone else's work, in worst - with clear intent to silence "undesirables"

And for what? Just to pat themselves on the back, “I helped make world a better place" whilst not registering all they did was make it more hostile for everyone but the people that actually do the harm. Then they cry there's bad/not enough rep. Or hide behind childhood nostalgia. I'm tired.

Bigger creators have more resources to defend themselves or just to not notice any pushback. Small creators don't know how to defend themselves so they just cave in, lash out. Easier target, picking the lowest hanging fruit, the lowest effort put in the worst place possible.

I think??? pillowfort has a feature like this but it fell of people's radars soon after tumblr thing Tumblr has password protected blogs tho

And moving to krita in some cases is just... not it. Krita doesn't have some color profiles CSP has, for example.

My first two tablets were Wacoms, the One line, before I swapped to Huion Kamvas. They're rather cheap, pretty sturdy, but might have issues with drivers (nothing a driver restart can't fix) since it's an older line. They're not huge, around a6-a4 size? I had ctl-672 which was about size of a5

This (and generally being scared of Linux os, my brain is too smooth for this) is the only thing holding me back from installing it on my laptop. I don't want to do permanent swap to krita just yet.

Loupilaa @loupilaa.bsky.social · 07/01/2026
I would've probably made that jump bit apparently CSP has some issues on Linux, and I'm not hot about typing commands for whole day to make one thing work for a moment, and maybe brick my machine

Apparently so? Cara is still too niche to land anything. I'm on fence about coming back to as, since they probably haven't backed out of ai bs

yeah, pinterest one day marked a photo of a shirtless guy in denim pants i had saved as a reference as "inappropriate". I wouldn't give a damn about it, but they spammed me with notification over that ONE pic like i hosted entire pornhub collection myself :/

Yeah me with that particular comic that's a personal project of mine. I don't have that much material done but it's turning into such monster I've no courage to keep pushing anymore

Please take some time to recharge. It's just artfight, it's supposed to be a fun event, art block is a nasty payment for it, esp since you actively take commisions. Also, there's always another year.

Idk if i should go "uhm ackshully", these marshmallows are pretty popular candies in my country (and my sin, they are so good when frozen), and name comes from i think greek saying "bird of milk" which meant something rare/unobtainable? back then it was shilled as a fancy confectionery

I'm on fence because of the built-in crypto wallet and ai bs (although latter seems inevitable, these people gotta love huffing the dust from their datacentre rigs and forcing it on others) but brave for mobiles has built-in adblocker that can deal with yt ads pretty well.

Is there any fanart you wanted to do but had to put on backburner for some reason?

I think it was back on twitter? Someone forwarded one of your pieces (I think it was boxes), then another, so I followed, and I've been following ever since :|a

Loupilaa @loupilaa.bsky.social · 26/05/2025
I feel like.. people moving away from deviantart might've done its part here? There's artfight that's basically a massive art trading game, but some folks are way too competitive, and it's just month long event. Hell, I don't see people trade aceos anymore either.

Loupilaa @loupilaa.bsky.social · 21/05/2025
it seems it isn't? that's bob ross's painting, if there's anything generated the frame might be upscaled with ai, and everything got halfassedly photobashed together. Along with that "Art." text it looks straight up rude. There's actually a generated thumbnail tho, for health and fitness category

Loupilaa @loupilaa.bsky.social · 10/05/2025
For gifs and emotes I'd personally go with CSP pro, krita, or krita+opentoonz
000
Loupilaa @loupilaa.bsky.social · 10/05/2025
Clip (pro for shorter stuff, ex for longer), blender (lots of tutorials around and very flexible but has a learning curve), opentoonz (free and is pretty close visually to toonboom but there aren't many tutorials), krita (free, a lot of tutorials, quite beefy, but can be very wonky and act up)

They will work if posted as video file, but not as image, for some reason

Loupilaa @loupilaa.bsky.social · 03/05/2025
This is the very reason I don't want to delete my tumblr, and one of reasons to keep making art at all. Once I got some tags like this on my art and it gave me massive big serotonin kick.

My sister buys from temu&shien and does her darnest to convince our mother to install their apps as well, and I feel like the only thing that stops mom is that I refuse to help her set up the accounts, and I'm the "bad daughter" that just "yells at her"
