What I remember from listening to art advise on YouTube all day:
- Maintain a daily habit of practice.
- Keep practice simple. Too much variety is counter-productive.
- Twitter is best for new artists.
- Do not send a potential employer your DeviantArt page.
- An OC is a reflection of the creator.
- Getting good at art takes time so be patient. Years, even a decade or more may pass before you are able to make a living as an artist.

This morning I took a face from a random thumbnail from YouTube and traced over it in Inkscape. I think it turned out quite well as compared to my previous work which only looks decent if I take the lines out. This was good practice for working out how to fit shapes together toward that goal, making use of the line-tapering path effect and getting used to Inkscape in general.

It's been a while, hasn't it?
I've shifted gears away from coding into art - though I would very much like to get back into making games.
I've been lurking and posting on the OC Plaza:

I've been drawn characters belonging to other people and exploring different ways to "art".

I've put my game on greenlight once more:

I've also made a big update to the NG version:

If this makes it through greenlight, it will be for free.

Tried putting it on greenlight, ended up getting a lot of hate.
Edit: Then it did worse on Newgrounds than the original!
Check out the demo:

Stay tuned for the full version on ABS:

Don't expect a sequel.

The latest thing I sneezed up got front page again (Thanks Mr.Fulp!). After some people expressed confusion and frustration with the game I decided to put a cheat sheet together for the fun things.
Remember: each choice generates a number between between its max roll and its min roll and if the luck stat is greater than or equal to that number you get the best result.
Merry Christmas everyone!
