Ref Sheet Coming Along, Progress, and Questions?
13 years ago
Hello everyone. -Wavewave- I've decided to practice more and more with my tablet. (Which has been behaving well OVERALL, and only seizured like 3-4 times while I was working with it today.)
Today's progress consisted of:
Completing the sketch of the badge for
Artic
And starting a revised ref sheet for myself. It's NOWHERE NEAR DONE. But you're more than welcome to see what I've accomplished so far here:

I'm going to trim down those lovehandles. This is gonna sound silly but I forgot I lost 15 lbs since the last time I've drawn a full-body pic from start-to-finish of myself. >.< At my heaviest I was 155lbs, now I'm like 127lbs and 5'6". So yeah...need to shave off some of the chub. >.>
I have some housework to get done, a shower to take, and I have to leave a little early for work because I have some things to do on the way, so I probably won't be accomplishing too much more today.
Anyhow I have a few questions! I see all these people doing raffles to get a little noteriety, ex. having people link to the journal and watch the person for a chance to win something.
I have mixed feelings about this. I feel like people just watch them for the possibility of 'free stuff'. Or am I mistaken on how it works? I just see a lot of it, and trust me my queue is so full right now I'm not considering taking anymore of a workload. But maybe, IN THE FUTURE, if someone can convince me it's a good idea, I could do some raffles for free art. :)
Anyways I'm tired of how gross and bland my gallery is looking, I have no completed works! Well, SOON I will! 8D
Take care everyone!

What's better, having someone watch you for free art offers, or not having that watcher at all?
I personally like to do free art because I enjoy having a variety of characters to draw and the chance to experiment with art outside the pressures of commission payments. And I can tell you, multiple times, people have found me and watched me just because they saw the free art I drew for someone and liked it enough to follow me. But, you know, sometimes they don't. I just do it because I have fun with it either way.
You're absolutely right. To be completely honest I LOVE doing free art, just not when I have overdue commissions to work on. (I just don't want to seem unfair when people have paid me for such things.) I don't have much left to do (praise the gods) and then I can tackle the trades I'm interested in and focus on personal art. 8) -Woo!- I probably would've had everything done by now if it wasn't for my wisdom tooth surgery pushing me back a good week and a half. I slept. A LOT.
What kind of perked my interest about the raffle was because it was more than a 'request', it was attention being directed to my gallery. My gallery is pretty nude right now (not really any completed works, I've just been really busy and I've been getting frustrated with my tablet, but that was the purpose of sketching the ref digitally.) I ALWAYS do things traditionally first. But I'm comforming to the tablet because it's much quicker and easier to fix things and change things. And I don't kill as many trees. ;)
And I'm poking around your gallery and wondering why I'm not watching you. >.o Very nice work! If you're ever interested in a trade hit me up! Like I said I have a few waiting until I'm finished with my commissions, but what's one more name on the list. ;) Commissions will be done within a week's time, I already checked the schedule and there's no reason it can't happen. After that, it's all about trades and personal art. (And I'm looking forward to this like you wouldn't believe. So excited!)
I'd love to trade~ Whenever you have the time, let me know! I've been taking time off commissions for trades and personal art too, so I should have plenty of time to fit you in. ^^
