Hello, I'm Liminori. If you've not seen me around, I'm just a person who spends time occasionally in the Treasure Vault, because I gave up on playing SK long ago.
Long past are the days where I would come home, excited to figure out how to post my next move in the many RP's the Treasure Vault had to offer.
Which is why, I'm woefully aware, this is in the wrong forum.
Why? Because I wanted to put this where the people I knew, or didn't, could see it.
And so, I've come to the main point.
The problem, unrelated to SK, and it's roleplays and projects, of Art.
Art, which I could easily put in the correct category by making art and saying it's for SK, and then bombard the viewers with the problem after the art itself.
I'm not too great at Digital Art.
Don't stop me, and say that I'm wrong. Don't say 'Oh, I could never do something that good!'
And, worst of all, never say 'Oh my, how spectacular/pretty/intriguing.'
Don't get me wrong, my art isn't bad, but I don't like it.
GIMP is a great tool... if you have the patience and or a drawing tablet.
I find myself wanting to do big projects; full out stories with detailed characters, worlds, even small little plot design- things that will make people gasp, laugh, and cry. I look at what I have to offer, and get disgusted with myself.
I get it, I'm kinda a slacker- I should just get out there, and start trying, Right? I shouldn't put myself so far down, Right?
I'm only lazy because I feel like I'll lose out on my time alone, my time to do what I want.
But, of course, I can only go so far.
Thanks for looking at my rant to myself, yet pointed to everyone.
What art style should I employ, from now on?
A. Spend a year trying to do digital art on Gimp?
Don't know what Gimp is, but if it is anything like sketch pad, only invest into it if you are committed, I personally failed at sketchpad.
B. Pixel Art?
Too common, even Fehzor can make them, heck, EVEN Thinslayer can make them.
C. Real Pen, Pencil, and Paper Drawings?
Son, allow me to teach you the ways...
D. Or forgo art, and just write everything?
Judging from your past record with writing, maybe not?
E. A mix of all of the above?
No reason not to get a mix, drawings could get stale from time to time.
Would a webcomic be too far of a first stretch, or should that be a goal?
B. No
Well, depending on how long it is.
Should my first project be SK related?
B.No
Try something new for once, I'd tried to make SK comic once, no success there.
