Description So this is taking ages. Please let me know what you think! 
I'm really getting into the details of the clothes and armor and it's hard to think about everything especially the "big picture" so I would really appreciate any ideas you have. There's a lot of rough stuff so yea, like the shoulder armor, antlers spear, upper hand...background...

So I take a one week break from here and meanwhile there's 16 submissions from you? I can't compete with the pace like this!

Hahah no it's awesome... And this one will be very epic! Love the side-profile view and the very fantasy-like atmosphere.

AHAHAHA! Sorry! Thank you - It's taking too long again though, today I got stuck on the hand that's higher up...driving me CRAZY! It was like hours ....maybe it felt like hours. But im starting to think your approach might be better...to use instagram for posting everything and DA for final images and close ups...? More like a portfolio, otherwise all my social media is EXACTLY the same! Been thinking about this a lot today and I think I'm actually going to change things now. Also I want to write a short blog type of thing but I'm kind of embarassed about it cause I don't usually write that much. ALSO, since probably no one will read it I shouldn't be embarrassed haha....I hope you check it out if I am consistent lol what do you think, do you even read blogs? DOES ANYONE?

Really happy you noticed the background on my painting, I took your advice of paying more attention to it - and totally enjoyed it! It's more abstract that what I usually do.

Ahhah, I feel your pain! Sometimes there are parts that just doesn't seem to go right, no matter the efforts. Traditionally, it's dangerous cause there's a quite high risk of rushing it and eventually ruining everything. ;D  

I'm glad you like my approach! I think it's a good idea, also if you have followers on both places. I have neglected dA since the move, firstly cause I haven't finished anything, and secondly, Insta is more quick and easy since it's on the phone. After the new move (lol), I'm planning to revive dA, start uploading more and more often. Socialize, browse more.

About the blogs... um haha I don't really read them, simply cause no time. Though if it's very interesting, then yes. What kind of blog you were thinking about?  

Yay! My pleasure- very good job!

I think blogs are hard cause its yet an other place to try and get people to go to. I might post them somewhere I'm already on...DA? 
Art blog - anything art related? hmmm....

I think it's a good idea to post art-related blogs here... the journal is perfect for that!


And I think people would actually read it. I would.

No worries! Hope you'll fix soon! ♥


I can barely handle dA & Insta (and I really haven't lately ) so I understand very well.

oh ok still going through that... sorry it's hard to start again. Always the worst part is starting - not to mention that if you don't even have time then it's like "forget it!"

jenninn In reply to kikoeart [2018-10-02 13:07:57 +0000 UTC]



Exactly. It's super hard to get it going smoothly again!


Time-shortage surely doesn't help either... but most importantly, I'm starting to have ideas and inspiration to do! Every week better

Ok cool, inspiration is important and ideas are, in my opinion even more important! 

Do you have some plans for new drawings yet?

jenninn In reply to kikoeart [2018-10-11 14:24:46 +0000 UTC]

Agreed 100%. ♥


I have quite a lot of ideas (which is soooo welcome since the head was completely empty for months!), but the execution of them is off... So my plan for now is to focus on the color-series since they are on A5. Small enough to not get discouraged and to get the drive back.

kikoeart In reply to jenninn [2018-10-12 19:27:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh cool! Yeah start with something comfortable and manageable feeling

I'm doing a painting for a BST contest (art contest) and the theme is ghosts and ghouls....the painting is so far looking more like something you would like than the last one I've done (the cute little queen of quinoa) lol

jenninn In reply to kikoeart [2018-10-16 11:45:18 +0000 UTC]

Exactly.


Hahah yeah I've seen that one coming along! It's more on the 'serious' side than the haunted food series. Love both anyway.


Best of luck with the competition! When's the deadline?
