@Taffeta, I'm not quoting you since you posted the spoiler (If you quote a post with the spoiler, it will show the text.) I'm also not sure I want to know what's in the spoiler yet. What you say about Yona has me a little worried though. I think 42 will come out in the US in August or September. I picked up A Sign of Affection 8, Fly Me to the Moon 23 and The Apothecary Diaries 1-3 today. Here's a couple of pics of my manga shelves. visitors can't see pics , please register or login visitors can't see pics , please register or login Sorry the pics are dark.

I have strawberry blossoms and at least 1 strawberry too. visitors can't see pics , please register or login visitors can't see pics , please register or login The dill is showing new growth too. Ponyfan 5

If the black outlines bother you, maybe you can soften them a bit by adding more white over the lines? What kind of paint are you using, is it acrylic? If so, you can safely add more layers where needed.
Portraits are very difficult, it's one thing to have the technical skills to draw a cat or a human, but capturing the likeness of an individual adds a whole new layer of challenge. I think it still looks like the cat in the sketch, but I get your frustration. I often struggle with turning sketches into finished works, whatever the medium. It's difficult to maintain the expressiveness of a sketch, it takes a lot of practice and familiarity with your chosen medium that may behave very differently from pencil, which allows you to do very soft and subtle shading. I also very often feel like inking 'ruins' my sketch in a way, but I'm sure no one else would see it like that, it's all in my head. I hope this helps you feel better about your work, and gives you courage to continue finetuning the piece if you think that is needed. 8

It's finished but, I think I ruined it. visitors can't see pics , please register or login I tried to define the eyelids and tearducts but I didn't think it fit in, so my friend suggested I outline everything else and... Well... I don't like it... I tried to honor my cat as much as I could but now it doesn't look like her, and I don't know what to do. 9

It's in a huge green glass demijohn with plants and rocks. I see a lot of my plant stuff as art or craft but can understand if that doesn't make any sense! Can we see please? I've got 2 patches coming in the mail. This jacket is nearly finished! Just 2 more patches to go and with any luck, maybe I'll have it done in time for winter? |
