i love his hoodie design XDDΒ

Thanks! I know, if I could make this I would totally wear it! >w<
Too bad I don't have a sewing machine or talent in sewing

Teach me your hoodie skills ; A ;Β
Yup, definitely getting better with each picture... meanwhile I'm at a standstill -Flops over and cries-
π: 0 β©: 1
You must stare at the hoodie. You must wear the hoodie. You must BE the hoodie!
C'mon girl, get outta that funk! You're gonna get better too! I believe it!
π: 0 β©: 1
I've covered staring, wearing, and being closely associated with my hoodies... it's not working ; w ;Β
I know I've improved since last year, but when I look at what I've done... it's not a lot of improvement and it's sorta discouraging OTL (I've been drawing everyday in my planner to keep track of my drawing abilities...though on days when I was busy I just doodled something quick OTL)
π: 0 β©: 1
Keep staring. It'll work eventually. Soon those hoodies will start to talk to you XD
What works for me was I sometimes stopped drawing completely for a few weeks just to look at others work to gain some inspiration and ideas. Then I start to draw again to see how my style has changed or improved.
π: 0 β©: 1
I think I may be sleep deprived by that time XD
Oooh! I think I may try that... but oh... I love to doodle ; w ; I think what I hate more than not improving is getting a great idea and then just forgetting it OTL
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, it's difficult to stop drawing completely, but if you get a really good idea, it shouldn't be that forgettable, and you could always write it down just in case XDD
π: 0 β©: 1
I've actually started doing that XD Well, doing an extremely shapewise rough draft so I can remember what I wanted to do c:
π: 0 β©: 1
I have a tough time doing rough drafts
Usually I just let my left hand draw whatever it wants to draw. Sometimes I think it has a mind of it's own o_O
π: 0 β©: 1
Then you'd have two minds to help you improve your skills!! My hand doesn't have a mind of its own :c I need to tell it what to do... you're left handed? o: I'm right handed XD Although I'm trying to be ambidextrousΒ
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep! I'm a lefty and I'm happy with it... until it becomes time to draw boys shota or ikemen. I mean, my brain knows what I have to do to make them look male, but my hand just goes "nope" and then I'm left with a boy-ish looking girl OTL
π: 0 β©: 1
My brain to hand signal goes "nope" all the time! "Oh, you want to draw eyes? Here, let me help you with that and make them completely out of proportion!" I think I've been improving though OTL I-I'm trying making manlyish guys... in my school plannerΒ
π: 0 β©: 1
You could also try drawing shota boys first so you can see the subtle differences between girl and shota (cause shotas are pretty girly...) It's a pretty big step to go with manly first
Trust me, I tried. It ended with bloodshed everywhere. DX
π: 0 β©: 1
Do shotas even have adams apples? owo Well, since I've started practicing, my guys don't look too girly anymore :'D I-I hope OTL Before when I showed people my guy drawings, they'd always mistake it for a girl :'D Now... it's rare when one of my guy drawings get mistaken as a girl... so that's good, right?
π: 0 β©: 1
I thought all males have them. Maybe some just aren't as erm... bumpy as others?
And yes, it's very good! I should start practicing again too, but I'm in a slump. I've drawn a lineart of a Sealeo gijinka, but when I colored it in it looked bad D: And it doesn't really look anything like a Sealeo...
π: 0 β©: 1
Some of them... you need to look super closely XD But I'm not going to go up to a guy and stare at his neck, I'm not a vampire
Eww. I hate slumps :c If you'd like, I can try and give pointers on how to make it more sealeoish...
I'm sure it can't be as bad at my slump pictures -Shudders-Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Well maybe not a complete stranger, but you can tell them it's for research on drawing males
And that would be great. Usually humanizing pokemon is so easy, but for some reason I can't for this one D: I'll probably upload the lineart to my scraps later
π: 0 β©: 1
I guess I'll need to ask my Uncle Moostache(He's a friend... I... I gave him that name in freshman year... I thought his name was worth mentioning because things have been added... I think his full name at this point is Queen Bee Meanie Uncle Moostache Mama Bird Praying Mantis Face...)Β
-Is currently looking at it-(Your lineart is really pretty, by the way)
π: 0 β©: 1
lol an uncle AND mama? what a strange name! We just call my friend Mochi Ball. The only classes we had with him was Japanese class and he was a grade below us (meaning he was gr.11 in a gr.12 Jap class) He's like that annoying little bro I never had! ^^'
And thanks! I kind of got tired of my previous sketchy style. I find this waaay more cleaner. Even if it does take hours to fix and thicken the lines in places!
π: 0 β©: 1
He's like a mama bird ^w^ He feeds everyone food, minus the regurgitation part XD I love how friends can practically become family~ I don't have any siblings, unless my dog counts XP
I can really see the extra effort put in c: I'm too lazy to attempt to fix my lineart OTL
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep, I remember in Jap11 class Mochi ball and I were partners for every project. It got annoying at times =_=
And how lucky! I have one older brother and he's veeeeery annoying. If you ever want a big brother, please. Take mine! XDD
I wasn't going to keep fixing my lineart for everything... until I found it was a lot easier to color when the lineart is clean X3
π: 0 β©: 1
Every project? owo Did he at least do his work?
Haha, no thanks XD I'm fine being an only child, I don't need to worry about sibling conflicts.
For me, I just make sure everything is closed and then I just proceed to color :3
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, during that time, the class was split into Provincial, IB (standard) and IB (high level). There weren't that many Provincial students. And for dialogue presentations he's the one that always made up the dialogue. He's better at Japanese than most of the class tbh
The only conflict I have with my bro is that I still have to share a room with my mom. For my whole life I've never had a room of my own and he still has the single bedroom ;_;
Before clean lineart, my lines were NEVER closed. That's why coloring took hours to do DDX
π: 0 β©: 1
Oooh owo That's pretty good then!! When I was in my level 1 Japanese class, I got paired up with a person who was only taking the class to get the credit... it was a pain to deal with them ; w ; They had no motivation what so everΒ
I only get a room of my own because my parents sleep in the living room... well it's more like a bedroom now I guess except no doors owo And our other room is like for storage... we have too many things OTLΒ
Coloring still takes me hours to do :'D I don't think it helps that I take food breaks in between places that I'm coloring though XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Mmhmm, a lot of people dropped Japanese in grade 12 cause it was getting too difficult for them (you know the kanji and all)
Your place is filled with stuff? Mine too! Except we have an actual storage room but it's like 3 hallways away and is shared with other tenants too. And it's really creepy if you have to go in there cause it kind of looks like a dungeon D:
I know right? I have another browser window beside the stuff I'm coloring and I just get distracted cause I watch videos on it
π: 0 β©: 1
Ooh. Well my Japanese class right now is like... 12 people XD So I'd say we have a nice amount left! All Seniors except for one Junior~ Kanji is the bane of my existence -Sobs-
Ooooh... I like our room storage place ; w ; It's not scary at all. Unless you count all my stuffed animals staring at you scary XD But then again... my mom has like one marionette doll that creeps me out >w<
Oh my gosh. That. I do that all the time! Like I have it open to listen to music but then I end up watching the video that goes along with the music OTL
π: 0 β©: 1
Wow that's a small class. We had 17 people and 6 of us weren't in IB so we didn't have to write essays for our finals Yay
I mean I can read a few Kanjis but I can't write them AT ALL. It's too hard to write kanji left handed because of all the strokes. The best I can do is 'nihongo' and 'ima' in kanji ; A ;
I wouldn't find that scary XD all my stuffed animals are on my bed! (my bro still buys me stuffed plushies...)
I know, I can't draw when it's quiet. Cause then it gets toooo quiet
π: 0 β©: 1
I've neve written an essay for a final, but I have written a story as a project c:
What about 'sui' the kanji for water? c: That one isn't too badΒ
Haha... I have my plushies taking up half of my bed... and overflowing to other places >w< I may have too muchΒ
(I'm attempting to make my own plushie right now :'D Espurrrrr~ But oh gosh. Planning out how to make the plushie is difficult)
It's never quiet in my room thanks to my fish tank <3 Too quiet is bad quiet >w<
π: 0 β©: 1
Ooh, we've done that too! It was in partners and Mochi ball wanted to make a story including characters from this game, "league of legends" or something. I was like "Seriously?" but I went with it anyway...
All the weekdays and weekends are ok too. and numbers as well ^ _ ^
Aw, if you know what you're doing, it get's pretty easy. I have to sew everything by hand since I don't have a sewing machine.
There's construction outside down the street so it'll be pretty noisy for while
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh gosh XD That game... I have friends who are obsessed with it XD Lucky for me, I wrote my own story about a fox and a rabbit looking for food c:
That's good XD Oh gosh, have you ever tried writing the kanji for love? I sobbed because mine came out so deformed ; w ;
Ooh o: I see ^w^ It's my first plushie that I'm actually putting a bunch of effort into XD Like I just drew out all the parts I'd need to make it. 4 football pieces for the head, 4.... I don't know what shape to use yet for the body.... arms, legs, etc c: Have you ever used minky fabric? o: And I'm planning to sew it by hand unless my mom's sewing machine magically starts working again X3
I think that's a bit too much noise owo
π: 0 β©: 1
I know right? I've never played the game before and I don't want to try it! XD
I don't think it was ever handed back to us so I think the teacher still has it...
No way. I already have trouble writing 'tabemasu' I mean I know what it looks like, but I just can't write it
I wish you luck! Do your best! You could cut out 2 oval-ish shapes and sew and stuff that together for the body and then make cylinder shapes for the limbs
Hmm... I always use felt when making my plushies cause it's the easiest to sew by hand for me. Maybe I'll ask for a sewing machine for Christmas!
I know. When that pick-up tractor thing moves, the whole building shakes. ; A ;
π: 0 β©: 1
It's apparently a strategyish game... I'm bad at that XP
Oooh o: Maybe it's in a special folder c:
Haha, that's actually one of my favorite words to write!!! 'Nomimasu' on the other hand... no >:c
If I can't figure out how to make it look exactly like Espurr's body by Christmas, I'll go with your suggestion c:
For the limbs, it should be fine to just use 2 pieces of fabric right?
Ooh o: That's what I'm practicing with XD I bought a bunch and even made a little plush cat thing XD
You should!!! c: Then you can post a bunch of your creations on here!!
Waah ; w ; That sounds horrible... Oh! Are there steamrollers? *w*
π: 0 β©: 1
Strategy? ooh, that reminds me, another ds game you should try is Fire emblem awakening
It's was handed in on the last day of school, so we all probably forgot about it
You see, this is why I just write everything in hiragana and katakana... = _ =
Mm-hmm, don't forget to add the little fur things sticking out! Yep, just make sure to stuff them good so they bloat up nicely. Don't under stuff cause I always make that mistake!
I tend to make cube animals for my friend's b-day. :3
I'd have to practice with the sewing machine before I go and make a mess of fabric! XDD
They have everything. I think they're building another apartment right outside my bedroom window. There's used to be trees to block out the light from other buildings at night, but now they're gone and it's too bright! ; A ;
π: 0 β©: 1
Ooh! I heard about that game from my friend o: I heard something about marrying characters XD
Oh wow XD Usually our classes have us turn in assignments like at least 3 days prior to the last day of school owoΒ
I try to use kanji when I can remember it XP I know maybe 20 by heartΒ
Okay! Got it c: Wrote that down in my plushie planning book~
That sounds really cute o: Is it pretty simple?
Haha, I need to do that too c: But first I really need to work on my hand stitching OTL
Think you could buy some heavy curtains? I remember seeing ones made from super thick fabric when i visited Alaska
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes! You can totally marry the characters! The first time I played through, I married the main dude, Chrom. But the second time, I wanted to marry someone else, but I couldn't do it! I ship the player character and Chrom wayyy to hard. But they're so cute together ; w ;
Well, that's my crazy Japanese sensei for you! I can only read kanji, anything other than that and I fail D:
Oh, it's super simple you just make 6 squares, sew on some wings (if you're making a bird) sew on the face and then make a cube!
Make sure you know how to ladder stitch! It's the most useful stitch you can use especially when sewing on the limbs and the head to the body
I'll probably just make my own darn curtains. XDD
π: 0 β©: 1
I'll need to ask my friend who she ships who with XD I think I'll wait till after Christmas to get into that game though, so many things are happening so quickly with school xwx
Truthfully, I think reading and being able to speak the language is a bit more important than being able to write it, well from a visitor's point of view, if you lived there... that would be a bit different XD
Oooh o: Seems simple enough! How much do you leave for seam allowance? I'm learning how to ladder stitch now XD It's not too bad ^w^ I could actually probably make a decent looking espurr by hand then, huh? c:
Seems economical c: And it would allow for a lot more customization~
π: 0 β©: 1
You have a lot of games to play now! XDD and I know how you feel, the last year of high school is always the most hectic, busy and the craziest D:
I'm ok at speaking and reading, I might slur a few words though. I can't really talk that fast...OTL
Well, you use the overcast stitch to join them together, so you sew close to the edges.
Yep, hand sewing gets a lot easier if you ladder stitch. I just wish I learned it sooner DX
I have leftover fabric from a cape I customized for a Mismagius cosplay so I can use that. And it's black too, so light definitely won't get in! XDD
π: 0 β©: 1
Those seniors last year liiieeed. Saying that the last year was the easiest! Most likely because they didn't take any AP classes or Senior Project -Flops over-
Same here! Except I slur a lot of words XD And I talk super slow unless it's a super common phrase that I say all the time!
Ooh o: So you don't turn it inside out?
I hope my Espurr won't turn out derpy now that I'm learning the ladder stitch >w<
You cosplay? o: Cool!
π: 0 β©: 1
They probably said all that so you wouldn't worry, but yeah they lied XD I didn't take any classes like that and it was still super busy!
I have trouble saying ra cause it kind of sounds like 'la' and 'ra' at the same time OTL
You can turn it inside out if you want neater edges, but it's not necessary
I'm sure nothing will go wrong! Just don't stab your fingers with the needle!
It was for a Japanese Halloween project thing. But I kept it was a Halloween costume XP
π: 0 β©: 1
Nah, they wanted to put us all into a false sense of security XP
I don't know how to help with that... pretty much just roll the r? I've been able to do it since I was little XD
Ooh o: Okay! And it depends on what style I want to go for too c:
. . . Too late :'D I've stabbed myself at least 10 times in the past hour
That's a cool project o: That's the best type of costume! One you can constantly reuse! c:
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep that's grade 12 for you. You can troll the 11th graders and get away with it XD
I don't know how I can have trouble with r's but have no problem saying 'th' like 'sixth' or seventh' even 'tenths'
I made little penguin cubes for my friends XD I have no idea if they still have them
Ouch. Oh well, eventually you'll develop tough skin on your fingers and thumbs so the needle won't even go through the skin anymore XDD
Yeah! It was a monster family tree kind of project so my partner and I chose to do Pokemon. My partner was a Poliwhirl, but it was just a blue sweater with a paper swirl attached with tape = 3 =
π: 0 β©: 1
Ah, if only I had that type of personality OTL
I think I'm fine with those... I think... now, toss out a word that is like 20 characters long... and I'm out of here XD
I hope they still have them >w< I know my friend still has the clay egg I made for her
Maybe I should learn the guitar first then learn how to sew...
Biology then? owo Their outfit seems like it was put together the morning of >w<
π: 0 β©: 1
Why? Too nice? XD I may have trolled the 11th graders one or two times before I left
How about supercalifragilisticexpialidocious XDD
I sewed a companion cube for my bro's b-day a long time ago. I kind of wanna re-do it because I wasn't all that fantastic at sewing back then = _ =
I tried to learn how to play the bass in 7th grade, but I gave up
Actually, he put it together 5 minutes before the class started... XP
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha, I just don't have the heart... and also people think I'm a freshman... even when I'm wearing a SENIORS class t-shirt ; w ;
Okay, that one is okay XP Since there's a song for it!
Ooh! You should c: I really want to see the types of things you've made
Haha, I have no musical talent XD I don't even try
Shame on him! XP
π: 0 β©: 1
They probably think you've borrowed it from one of your senior friends XP
haha in 5th grade, that was the word no one could say. And if you could say it, you were the coolest kid ever XDD
I put up a picture of my present to my brother but it'll probably be moved to scraps later, if not already XP
We just listen to it, but we want nothing to do with it XD
Well, I actually made my costume the night before so I'm pretty much just as bad > w <
