It's a real authenticity I appreciate, being wary of other 'influencers' who fake everything for the camera

[@russelljohnson7004]

@@37thraven yessssss. obviously a lot of the appeal is the goofs and the final renders, but I stick with Drawfee because I like watching the process. and not just mechanical stuff; the crew shows how social support via constructive feedback is a part of that process--they model how to workshop one's art, and even how to just be a friend to someone struggling with a project so badly that it shakes their self-esteem. and even beyond that, like how you mention the meta process of not just making art, but doing the show about their art. I don't like throwing the word "authentic" around about media because at the end of the day we can't objectively gauge that, but their willingness to pull back the curtain that virtually everyone else leaves hanging is just such a mark of integrity, and it blends so well with all the talent on display. nevermind the fact that they're all amazing at what they do, I'm just impressed that they're able to be emotionally vulnerable on camera.

My headcanon for Greyson Map is that he’s York’s secret half brother, bitter that York got to live as a prince while his father didn’t even acknowledge his existence. I love episodes where you can tell that they had a chill time and really enjoyed the challenge!

[@yphre]

everyone talking about the colors and their process, while Julia ticks of a whole list of kingisher facts. splendid. edit: YES, please do it again! I love color challenges and you all came with such different and cool pieces

[@adambrawerman1675]

Julia's illustrations led me to this idea: Create tattoos. You can sketch as much as you want, but when it comes to final inking, you only get one shot. You can't erase final inking or coloring.

[@vcbruh_1103]

This is a great idea

[@clockworkpotato9892]

I think Jacob's could be a tattoo as well.

[@rafamadeit]

I can hear the frustration of fighting that ctrl+z instinct

[@shelbymachado8712]

Suuuuch a fun challenge.

[@squishykotetsu]

"Snystal chapel" - man, Julia's mind sure goes places, huh? I almost feel bad for how unrecognized that joke went by

[@levi_ackerman_119]

This may sound strange, but I’ve gone from mild insomnia to moderate and I’ve… recently been listening to y’all’s videos to help me fall asleep. I’m currently able to with just one video now, which I’m sorta proud of, but anyway, I just wanted to thank you guys. You’re voices are calming and you always sound like you’re having fun. It’s a very stabilizing environment for my brain, so… again, strange thanks. It is also entertaining to see the results after I wake up. 😊

[@radishesonmars9309]

Youre not alone! I use em to fall asleep too!

[@levi_ackerman_119]

@@radishesonmars9309 Ayy!! 💕

[@cameronjadewallace]

Same, especially just to nap before work

[@killerweasel]

I get bursts of pure joy when they genuinely compliment each other's art, and they'll genuinely say thank you. It's so wholsome, I wanna puke. But like a happy puke. Just 4 amazing artists creating amazing art. And game recognize game.

[@halearomero493]

"a happy puke" 🤣🤣🤣

[@russelljohnson7004]

every time someone starts getting down on themselves about their composition, and everyone else immediately helps them understand why they're great, it gives me so much life. there was an era where every time Nathan followed up Julia he'd beat himself up by constantly comparing himself to her, and she would without fail come through with genuine, helpful positive feedback. such a wonderful way to get through the artistic process.

[@morgandea]

To quote jacob from the fan art episode, "I'm obsessed with this torso" (on karina's drawing). It's so good

[@jontandy3537]

Nathan’s crystals gave me big Bad JRPG vibes and I kinda want to see more of that now.

[@travisdabis9805]

Video idea: Mash this this and the same character prompt idea together. Everyone gets the same pallete but obviously Everyone does their own unique thing !!! Also I love everyone's piece very much mwah

[@dmboy1396]

or it could be the same prompt with different pallets for each one?

[@LavastormSW]

@@dmboy1396 Do both!!

[@ArrogantDan]

If you can't handle me at my Karina while Jacob is trying to intro the episode, you don't deserve me at my Karina watching Jacob speed-draw.

[@checkeredlemons79]

Nathan's lineless work is so therapeutic and im not even sure why like hed make a great children's book

[@saucykoala7822]

Oh, I long for the Beans era delicacy known as the “shades of” series. Please don’t let my prayers fall upon deaf ears, my wishes ask not for the moon, only for pretty colors.

[@fayleen746]

Please do this again! This was so much fun. I’ve done something similar in the past where me and a friend swapped random color palettes with each other. We ended up completing the first drawing really fast so we swap platted back and end up with four epic completely different drawings that we never would of thought of doing.

[@zoakdo]

Challenge idea: Magical Girl team. Come up with a unifying theme and name for the team. Then everyone draws their own character based on that.

[@themadkatter2000]

Now that I've seen this suggestion I can't stop thinking about it. Pls let this be a thing that happens 😩

[@neo.noni.]

I love this idea!

[@meanncat3050]

I too want to see this!

[@jeffmayo6002]

Even better they only get one word each out of the group name

[@weezer7757]

yes

[@37thraven]

"The most sensual foot is the foot you can't see" - Nathan coming in with high concept fetish psychology in erotica art, (that the crew totally missed, but we didn't! 23:13) "Sorry feet people, no feet pics"

[@banquoviaquo9220]

Nathan's fantasy landscapes consistently blow me away.

[@chiita3786]

Every illustration was unbelievably impressive this episode.

[@samfraulo]

This prompt really allowed them to do what they loved and excelled at. So good.

[@hannatude]

Saying it again: Y’all should do a round robin of the Portrait of Dorian Gray; one artist does the original pretty man painting, and the others each take a turn building up the age and disfigurement.

[@sillysnek9357]

Please keep saying this until they do it, i love It!

[@TheCapnReynolds]

This is a super neat idea, it could also be done in a round of garticphone animation, the gif version would be great.

[@annasorensen350]

Karina’s drawing has been my phone background since the day this came out. I absolutely love the drawing for some reason and just find it so inspiring, the composition and vibes and everything. And of course, hot himbo is hot himbo. Wish I could get an actual poster of it for my room! I feel like this is more impactful since I’m aroace, it just shows how amazing Karina’s art is that even the horni stuff is so good a robot like me finds it beautiful! On the off chance you ever see this karina, thank you for the background and inspiring me right out of art block with dumb demon man :)

[@dammitspawk]

jacob, enviously: wow nathan you got colours that work really well together me: hmm i wonder what colours jacob got (seeing jacobs colour palette): oh.

[@Palozon]

Today, Jacob actually defused the 'we all have em, who needs em" bit attempt in the intro

[@weaouw]

One of my new favorite videos from Drawfee. I would *love* more of this challenge. The resulting art was all amazing, _and_ it seemed like everyone drawing enjoyed it a lot.

[@RWhittleHFX]

Karina's drawings when she is having "Fun" always make it look so easy and effortless... so jealous... lol.

[@zippydipity42]

I loved how sincere Julia sounded, saying "This is fantastic, man". Damn Nathan hit it outta the park on this one
