Everything I draw ends up wearing a bow-tie

TPoH: Update

You know what I think I’m just going to update when I feel like it.

Yeah, I really am sorry about that, but as for losing inspiration, there’s really no way of knowing how or when it will happen. I can’t make any promises with TPoH, but I have a good feeling about it, so let’s hope that I can keep chugging on with it.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

I do not think I am a great artist. I struggle to think of my as an artist most days; but I’ll tell you what everyone else has told me, and what I’ve eventually started to realize for myself.

Everyone can draw, but there are different levels of ability. No matter what level you are at, there is always someone better than you, always someone worse than you, and you can always, always learn. If you love it, do it, get better. Make mistakes, make horrible mistakes; mistakes that you will treasure and cry over and keep close to your heart so that you never ever make them again. Don’t ignore people who say that your work looks bad because you did something wrong- ask them what is was and how to do it right next time. Do ignore people who just say that your work looks bad because they don’t like it- art is opinion.

You can’t please everyone.

Listen to your instincts- if you think a picture isn’t going as planned; stop, do something else, come back to it later, come back to it a year later if you have to, but don’t give up. Don’t think that you shouldn’t try. Don’t think that, because you aren’t good enough, you aren’t allowed to do something (unless it’s brain surgery). You still don’t think you’re good enough? Of course you aren’t good enough; you’ll never be good enough for you. Your brain is always five years ahead of your hands. Your own expectations of yourself are higher than anybody else’s. If you think that you’re the best at what you’re doing, that’s probably proof that you’re missing something, but that doesn’t mean you should constantly think you’re the worst. If you can’t believe in yourself, find someone who does. There will always be someone who does. Sometimes it’s a whole bunch of someones, and some day, maybe, that’ll mean that you can believe in you as well.

And then maybe you’ll start drawing a webcomic.

Question no 1: No.

Question no 2: Ahahaha… ahaha.. haa…..

Probably not >.< I’m really sorry. No really, I am. Maybe one day I will but-? Really I don’t know. The muse for that kind of up and died on me.

I guess this means grimdark is grimBritish from now on. oh lawd

sdaskdasd

yes

Potentiallyimprobbable: Man, you really do have a British sense of humour.

Olafpriol: … wait, are we using the British = dark joke again or did you actually mean British that time?

Potentiallyimprobbable: Does it matter?

Potentiallyimprobbable: I mean

Potentiallyimprobbable: haven’t we already agreed the two are basically synonymous?

Olafpriol: :T

Olafpriol: Touche.

Talking with people online.

Due to tumblrmon shenanigans the word dark has now been replaced with British.

I am amused.

“Well yeah it was fun but it was getting kind of British outside so we decided to pack up.”
