So There's This Basic Art Strategy That I HATE Because It Works, It's Just Fueled By Cruel Suffering

So there's this basic art strategy that I HATE because it works, it's just fueled by cruel suffering

Draw like shit. Very shitty shitty shit! So bad that you shouldn't be caught dead drawing at that level. To the point people think you're joking and then, with a tear rolling down your face, you turn to say you aren't, but you burst into pathetic sobs instead

Lower the opacity of that layer

Start new layer

Draw the same thing again but any amount less shitty than the last time

Repeat until you at least make something presentable, or until god dies of old age

Left out some steps, but the point is that if I hadn't let myself draw so horrible at first then I wouldn't have been able to make this... and the only reason that this isn't better is because I pussied out. But at least I got to where I could be happy with it

I'm not the first person to come up with this but I feel like I'm the only one willing to show just how BAAAD a first attempt gets to be

P.S. Now you have to reblog with you're own attempt. Doesn't matter if you aren't an artist. Krita and ms paint are free. You will learn. You no longer have a choice in the matter

Not to critique evolution, but I would think orange and black stripes wouldn’t be as good for camouflage in a forest as, say, green and black would.

What The Hell

What the hell… 😭

its called the D: drive because you look at how much space is left on it and you go "D:"

so important for every character to be an idiot, but each in their own unique beautiful way

I don't need you to tell me to fuck myself! I've been doing that for years... and I always will be...
