I mean if it was a place like Dunkin’ Donuts I’d be like ‘oh yeah I get blah blah blah from there’ but I’ve genuinely never seen this place anywhere outside of my city

I'll be back in a bit, I have the motivation to do something I've been wanting to do for a while so I'm gonna go focus on doing that. *^* Still here, just quieter.

I love this one local ice cream place and I rty to get the same ice cream but they change then so often

08:47:51 Kaos || Kháos

Understandable! That's why I also didn't name my local place. I don't think it's found outside of my location.

I have decided to explore

Oh I said ‘I moved’ twice whoops

Holy shit that’s dedication right there O.O
I moved a few months ago l moved so I haven’t had that long to find something I truly love, there’s only this one place where I get this one drink everytime, but the place is like not found anywhere else so I don’t feel like saying what I get or else I’d dox myself LOL

the one time you’re really chatty I don’t feel like chatting much at all </3

08:40:55 Kaos || Kháos

Ever-
That's me at this one local restaurant we have. I love their tacos so much that I have never tried anything else from them. I simply can't betray my favorite tacos. Four years of the exact same order every time, and when I was in high school, we'd go there almost every morning.

It is awful 😭 I'm never chatty either, let alone this chatty. D:

Khans
That’s actually somewhat of how I think :0
B it if I really like something I won’t try anything else, even if I go there often, unless they mess up my order, then I try something new, because if I complain I feel like a dick TwT

Nooo why are you chatty when I’m not chatty this is awful

Hey there! I've lately been trying to make shadows and.... It didn't go that well. I dont know if i should be straight lines, puffed lines etc. Actually i don't know anything about shading and just wondered if anyone had a tutorial or some tips? Here you can see an example:

What I did when I started to learn shading is a took a regular black color traced the outline of where I though shadows should go ( under cheek fur, ears, ect) then lowers the opacity. Then repeat until I'm happy. I can make a small drawing showing what I'm saying that that would help.

Another really good tip you could use is figure out where your light source is coming from! I will often pick a corner of the canvas that is my "light source". Then you can kinda picture where the light would fall on your subject and what things would be in shadow. You could even have a layer where you draw your light lines casting on the subject and then just get rid of that layer when you are done! But you have a really good start here!

It looks good! The straight lines are called cel shading. The only thing that makes it look a bit funky is the shading on the stomach goes up to high.

Does that make sense? I can add visuals if you want.

I used purple for the lines so the black on the second step would stand out and not look like part of the lines.

Black color isn't best for shading though. I recommend a blue or purple.

It only depends on what color your shading
