@Anti-Matter Yes, it's been a while though D:

Thanks Anti

Hey y'all, wanted to ask about Art Accessories and Software. I recently got an Ipad Pro, outside of using it as a tablet, I want to use it to improve as an artist. What accessories or software would you guys recommend?

@tekoii I have iPad Air and I draw only on it now. I have a Cintiq 16 but I do mot use it since I fot the iPad.

I've put a glass protector to keep it safe and ofc you 100% need to get the Apple Pencil 2.

As for software there is nothing better than ProCreate it costs 10$ forever no monthly payments.

I also bought Art Studio Pro. Same as ProCreate and again only one payment. It reminds me of Photoshop but the UI is hard to get used to at first.

And that is ALL you need in order to get the max out of your iPad in terms of drawing.

I also started doing pixel art on the iPad as it is very convenient and I am no longer bound to my desk

I designed the Math worksheet grade 1 & 2 for Math Club extracurricular like these.

Grade 1

Grade 2

@Anti-Matter Thats actually pretty cool dude.

@Zuljaras Thanks man appreciate the info! Ahh right, I even see ProCreate on the app store as #1, literally lol. I appreciate the 1x payment of $10. Just how I like it, cause I really don't like recurring payments.

You also do pixel art on your iPad now? Mobile pixel art? That sounds awesome. What do you use for pixel art on your iPad or home computer? Pixel art is something too I would love to learn. Thanks for the help

@tekoii on my PC I used the good old MS Paint and on my iPad I use procreate with specific brushes for pixel art. ProCreate is NOT made for pixel art but I got used to it pretty fast.

I just lie in my bed and got idea for a new enemy or environment asset and I just open the iPad and start drawing right away.

It is so freeing that I can just start drawing in 3 seconds tops I love it and I am a huge Apple hater. I still am but the iPads are the ultimate artists tool. Especially the new ones! Also the Apple Pencil 2 is amazing. Expensive but amazing!

@Zuljaras Ahh okay.. i thought you might be using other software for pixel art. For me, I gotta have more free time before hoppin into another thing xD. For now, I gotta focus on my Youtube channel and on drawing XD! Totally hear ya on the convenience factor of tablets. I relate with ya there on Apple, I've always been a PC dude. The Apple Pencil 2 is pretty snazzy Again thanks for the recommends on Procreate, gotta grab that soon!

In 2018 I send some selfmade drawings to a Christian tv channel, it was supposed to be for the channel's magazine, but i came on tv during commercials for a whole month

Last month i also found one of my drawings in a children's comic magazine. I dont want to say that I am the best drawer in the world, but I loved to see some things published.

It's been and continues to be one of the best crossover games ever. Whoever that last character is...
I'm ready for the last Smash Character!!! It's been a blessing to have the Super Smash Brothers <3

Here's an animated box-art I made for Super Smash Brawl.

@tekoii I'm not! Sob

@Snatcher LOL! Why not?

@tekoii I really would want one more, But I know this is the end, the last time we will ever get a game like this ever again.

@Snatcher I so feel you on that, I would LOVE <3 a 3rd pack. Yea.. it is weird, the last time we get a Smash fighter. Sobs too I wonder where Smash goes from here.. Oh btw just @ me at that one Smash forum so we don't put too much smash stuff in here xD.

I created some Zelda Animations using free assets.

Check out my animations:

Nintendo no Basket

Link (Zelda) vs Raph (TMNT)

Zelda Anime Op - Short Clip - WIP

This is the time-lapse of my Penitent One from Blasphemous

@AnimatorJC Looks pretty cool, I can only imagine how difficult this is to create.

@Zuljaras Nice, I like the design. It's pretty interesting seeing how you make it too though.

There was this charity event on Deviant Art where we had to draw a tutorial cat!
Draw a Cat with ChrissaBug
I had a busy week but quickly I made a drawing using Procreate (lol) so I can participate and have an entry for the event. So this is my piece:

'A Fox in Dread Armor'

Though, I am thinking on touching the piece up when time clears up for me a little.

@tekoii OMG he looks so cute!

@tekoii Very cute indeed!

@Snatcher @Zuljaras Awh thanks guys I wanna color this some day..
