I normally don't post other people's YouTube videos here, but this is IMPORTANT.

I beg of you to watch this video if you believe that your art is TERRIBLE. This is something that I've struggled with and is something I know a lot of people here have too.

It would also be a good thing to share this video with those you think need it.

I want every artist to know that your art ISN'T BAD.

It's unique and can be improved with time and effort.

Nobody can just sit down one day and draw something phenomenal. They worked hard and believed in themselves, no matter how bad the art may have looked to them. They also take critique so that they can learn and grow from their mistakes.

And if you do those, you'll gain more skill to draw more complex pieces!

I guarantee that some of your favourite artists do this! You just don't know that they do.

Try your best, practice a lot and never give up! You can do this! I know you can.

-Smudged

This is something I wish that past me knew. Please, remember this whenever you think that your art is bad.

The Medusa's Light - Dcst Fanart

Recently got SUPER into Dr.Stone and I just had to draw some fanart of my fav boi Senku!! Inspired by a certain scene from S3 (if you know, you know)

No spoilers for S4 plot pls, I'm an anime only viewer 🙏

Silent Glow - Unitas (OC)

Drawn on Krita, streamed the process on Discord for all 2 of my closest friends (but only one came)

Consider this the rare art drop of the month and my attempt at redemption after I drew this one: https://gamejolt.com/p/silent-contemplation-subject-unitas-oc-kr…

an unforseen threat

(1st of the year!)

I've been dabbling in this artstyle more these days. I hope to improve my skills in portraying characters properly + drawing scenery this year.

Like last year, I'll try to return every attack with equal or higher quality.

It'll take some time for me to get everything back up and running on GJ. Thank you for your endless patience!

Dr.Stone Fanart Compilation

I continue to draw like crazy behind the scenes as I work to pick myself back up again. Since Dr.Stone is still my current fixation, here's some of what I've been making! Featuring my inconsistent art styles
