Even though I told everyone in my family to not put the water gallon thing in the water fountain thing because it would make it taste like plastic someone went ahead and put it there because we need water that tastes like plastic apparently.

Sometimes it is interesting to think about how the sexualization and content often only appear in one form.

Like it is rare to actually find porn of multiple girls on a guy who is crying, while the opposite is pretty common. Or a male blackmailed into stripping and having sex. Or a guy locked up in a toilet for women to drop by and enjoy themselves. Or public nudity where girls enjoy looking at the guy.

Then there are also things like how it is a big deal with indirect kisses from bottles and stuff. But you never see things like "indirect hugging" from shared towels or something. Or wearing panties claiming to "indirectly rub against the girls crouch".

If I actually were a good artist, I'd probably go ahead and just draw all these opposities to explore the unknown.

start w/ pen and paper

draw from your surroundings

don't buy expensive shit because it won't make you a better artist

but have enough dignity to not go with something seriously cheap. get something decent to work with

drawing is muscle memory so you'll have to draw, a lot

over and over until you get better

you can also study the technical aspects but it's mostly from studying how it works irl

don't feel bad if you don't improve fast enough

keep at a steady pace and literally draw every day

it's okay to use resources to help yourself

What kind of pen/pencil would be good to work with?

You will get through this. Keep hoping for the best, and hold onto the knowledge that you are not your best self right now... but you are awesome, so all the bs trying to keep you down... is just straight up bullshit.

(Sorry, I just kicked my depression like a week ago... so, trying to encourage others struggling with it, that no matter what... there is always hope!)

anything is fine, really, as long as it doesn't smear. maybe a blue ballpoint pen?

i prefer something that dries quickly

pencil smudges and gets on your hand, but it's good for sketching and you can redo it over and over. you should probably choose a pencil first with a good eraser

for the paper you can choose literally everything. if you want something to keep your stuff in just buy a sketchbook from target because those can handle pencil and pen (what you'll be using the entire time you don't need anything fancy)

after getting comfortable, you might want to try digital art. the hand-eye coordination skills you get from drawing traditionally transfers over when you're using a mouse, but i'd still recommend getting a tablet after becoming comfortable enough with your traditional art. digital art has lots of advantages over traditional art, but traditional art is best for starters imo

On the flipside I don't think the original Xenoblade's soundtrack is particularly good except for 1 or 2 pieces

I'm aware but I'll keep at it.

Guess I'll start tomorrow with the sketching. I should have that sketch book I never used still.

Agreed, actually... with the same number and everything.

Hope you feel better. I actually just started drawing again, after not doing it much for like a decade.

I like drawing in pencil, but I picked up a drawing pad, since it's a lot easier to modify things digitally.
