I went through my folders (online and offline) and realised I have a lot of junk... so, I guess I'll continue dividing them into separate posts by subject.

Ho wow, the first drawing reminds me of impressionist paintings, where the dots of colors give to the drawing all the life and how it seems it's moving. It's very amazing, and I love how it has also so many force just in the strokes, and the others drawings have also this. It's really impressive. Did you use acrylic paint

[starstray]

Agh omg thanks for the kind comment T______T I really do appreciate it <3

I used mainly watercolour, ink and aquarelle pencil but for Austria's final image I used yellow acrylic for the texture. Some places I also used gold designer's gouache.

I love impressionist paintings :D I hope I can reproduce their energy and colours one day, even in digital paint. Musée d'Orsay was a really wonderful place, I much preferred it to the Louvre ^^;;

I use photoshop because of the limitations of my macbook, if I was on a PC I would want to try SAI and openCanvas! I tried Painter, but I still prefer photoshop + offline work... I find that cg really tests my patience -_- and it's uncomfortable to work on a laptop @_@

WHAT DO YOU MEAN CRAP I took some of the colour combos from your watercolour images xD especially the blue-green-yellow combo which I didn't use before this. I like to look at your watercolours because they have a very natural and fresh feeling to the tones. We can become symbiotic and feed off of each other then.

You are very welcome <33

I didn't say that! You said it yourself!

But this one might be more apt:

[starstray]

[chikotori]

T-THE COLOURS!! ;A;
Can't stop staring at Austria's pictures, comrade! They almost look like a sequence at that.

\saves everything
Every time you post it's candy for the soul.

P.S.: SECONDING/THIRDING ETC THE "YOU DON'T NEED TO IMPROVE!" YOU'RE ALREADY TOO GOOD!! GETTING BETTER MIGHT CAUSE YOUR EGO TO CRUSH AND WE DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN, DO WE?

Be strong, comrade!
Just do it!

[starstray]

eh, for Austria, I drew one and it was ugly, then I drew another one it was slightly better, and so on.

my ego is so crushed already every time I look on pixiv hahahahahaha =v=

thanks comrade bawwwwww ;w;

[rainy_fantasy]

Wow these look so amazing! I really love the colors you used and how you used them too. These are really, really nice. Your sketchbook looks really sweet as well! I'll have to try something like that sometime. That video was pretty cool too.

I'm interested in seeing your photos by the way! ha Especially if they're of your travels in Germany and such. They would be really cool to see. :)

[starstray]

Sketchbooks are fun to make :DDD not so fun to fill up for assignments though...

Yeah all my photos are travel stuff ... and food lol OTL (my priorities are barbaric) I need to do the writeup mostly. a lot of tl;dr

Thank you for the encouragement btw ;o; I always wonder whether I should keep personal posts to a minimum.
