character designer/illustrator | no AI and no NFT | he/they/she (25) currently working on my first attempt at an original comic! :D #WIP ✨ #comic ✨ #oc✨ #fanart ✨ #art

artists support each other when systems will not. there's little safety net. it is resilience. artists are not your competitors. artists are your peers, mentors, and the ones who will defend the ability to create sustainably. to those who struggle to continue drawing, you are an artist.

struggling so hard to get past this deep seeded embarrassment about sharing my thoughts and opinions (and most importantly, my art) publicly i don't know when it started because i used to do it without issue but now i have so much anxiety about it for no discernible reason

wanting to get into 3D modeling with blender but it seems so daunting when what i really want to practice is digitally painting said models

worked on so much this year in the name of practice that never saw the light of day, next year the goal is to get more into comic work and doing full compositions (which i plan to share way more of) but the learning never ends when you can never decide what you want to actually DO forever

wish there was a way to have a quoted post where it would tack on below the original and others could tack on their own thoughts or you could do it to yourself and have a long post thread. basically tumblr style posting, but you can turn the permission off and you'd still have post limit

I came across an outdated guide on image grid sizing crop/proportions for bsky earlier, and I felt it was important to create an updated version! Please use this new guide instead!

Up-to-date BlueSky Crop Aspect Ratio
Crop Sizes for Bluesky as of 18 Oct 2024

By default, single images are uncropped. If image is too tall (Exceeds the 1:2 aspect ratio) then it will be cropped. Single images that are too tall may be scaled down but aspect ratio is preserved

With two images, both of them share a square aspect ratio of 1:1

For three images, the first image is square (1:1) while the other two are half-squares (2:1)

And for 4 images, all of them are 3:2
