you cannot tell me that vriska doesn't wear the most gloopy clumpy five dollar CVS mascara and gritty grainy halloween drugstore lipstick ever made i refuse to believe she invests in good makeup. she's used the same tube of mascara for three sweeps and will continue to use it no matter how dry and sticky it gets. she doesn't even line her lips just slaps it right on no primer no gloss no chapstick at night. foundation? never heard of her. contouring? completely foreign. she's worn eye shadow only once and applied it with her fingers. meanwhile kanaya with her $32.99 moisturizing dark angel lipstick morphe x jaymes charls palette sephora primer foundation contour highlighter blush bronzer setting powder $50 brush set $20 liquid eyeliner two hour skincare routine is just sitting there like

basically what i'm saying is vriska Only wears mascara and lipstick and Nothing Else

UNFRIENDLY REMINDERS FROM A FERAL INTJ:

Complainers are energy vampires, avoid at all cost

The "box" isn't real. You can leave it whenever you want

You already know the answer, stop second guessing it

The only way out is thru, stop avoiding the confrontation

It wasn't a mistake, they did it on purpose

Shut it down the first time or they WILL escalate the behavior

may i ask about your art process?

Of course!! Although I’m not the best when it comes to documenting the process of my personal work, I can try explaining it. I also included my process for my linocuts, in case anyone was wondering.

My digital illustrations usually start with mindless doodles, unless I want to draw something very specific. I don’t worry about doodles looking perfect or the anatomy being on point, I just draw whatever I want and whatever comes to my mind at that point. I feel that with such an attitude while drawing you can accidentally come up with something interesting and just have fun.

I also don’t know if it is a bad habit or not but I usually doodle on one canvas for weeks and if I turn on all of the layers, my canvases tend to look something like this

(while preparing this ask I actually found so many unfinished doodles which I now want to finish…)

For example, my latest kanaya illustration started from this doodle. I didn’t have any particular idea for it in mind and I just wanted to experiment with it. When working on it, I just decided to go for something simple, perhaps with negative space composition and a colour accent. And after deciding what I wanted to do with the doodle it’s just drawing until I like how it looks and think it’s finished.

I, unfortunately, don’t have that many process photos as I feel like my process is quite basic, similar to traditional illustration process+I like to draw on one layer or merge all layers together, but I have this picture I took for my friend while drawing. I was trying to figure out how to position the hand.

With my linocuts, the process is a bit more straightforward with not so much experimentation involved. I start with an idea in mind, for example, for my latest linocut I really wanted to do something with erisol, possibly something small in terms of size, A6 or A5, and with two colours. I then begin working on the sketch, usually I make a digital sketch but for this one I first made a traditional sketch and then refined it digitally.

I then print my digital sketch, transfer it onto the lino block, carve and print! 

Aaand that’s it. Hope you enjoyed!! As a bonus, have this yellow pikmin doodle I found in one of my canvases. I think it’s very silly.
