Update #7

Posted by Smugarug - September 15th, 2024


I’m cutting straight to the point here. I’m going to be using my news posts to actually post news and such.


First, I have to explain what happened with that last blog post. I wanted to try being all artsy and make a nice poem about my struggles. But reading back on it makes me realize, I never needed any of that.


Secondly, I’m still dealing with stuff upstairs if you know what I mean. Lots of self-doubt and self-acceptance, the usual.


Thirdly, I would like to know what you guys think about my art. Not because I’ve been craving attention, but it’s because I feel like I’m not getting the full picture.


I want to know what you guys think of my art so far and where you think I could improve. Point out inconsistencies that I miss, comment about how I draw things, et cetera. 


Leave your comments below and I’ll read them when I have time. Hope y’all have a good day. Smug out.

Your art is pretty good. It has kind of a Fantasy/Comic Book style! As a way to improve your art. Play to your strengths and weaknesses.

For my strengths, Im able to focus on anatomy and even create comics in a format to help give it a flow. My weaknesses? My coloring and detailing in the past was GODAWFUL. Recently Ive been taking up Pixel art to help me have better use of color theory and it helps a LOT! Now when I sketch I detail and think of the details Im missing.

So yeah I would say write a list for strengths and weaknesses to help you improve. It can also be useful to look into separate mediums that can relate with your weaknesses.

Hope that helped!

It did a bit, but I'd like to know more specific details & criticisms.
