[@_skyeline]

Thank you so much for subscribing to the channel 😭 I'm trying my bestest and will continue to do so! Hopefully you'll stick around ❤

[@DigitalLeafTV]

ah yess, procrastination, my beloved XD

[@_skyeline]

It is what it issss 😂

[@mello34_]

whenever i don’t have inspiration i just do studies, seems to work for keeping consistency

[@_skyeline]

It really does!! There's so many things to learn out there so picking out certain things definitely help with that!

[@tcg2717]

That is exactly what I do lol.

[@pastacomacooking]

I feel like you found ur niche, great video!!!

[@_skyeline]

Yes! Thank you! You also blew up reall fast wow!! 🤯

[@pastelshizu]

Some of these aspects seem super neat, but tbh I don't even get to most of these parts, I take something that interests me or a challenge, or something incredibly simple, fail at it and want to curl up in a ball.. now yeees I know you get better over time and I have gotten better, it's just sooOOoo demotivating to look at other people zipping by with a casual smile. Sorry rant over :D Don't let the negative get the best of you yadda yadda

[@_skyeline]

I understand you!! I will try to make more in-depth videos on my art progress, where I was, and where I am now

[@digitalleaf1501]

i totally get you. i had the same issue with myself. just know that everyone starts at their own starting point and has their own journey. you will find your way. i believe in you!!

[@turtlie7309]

I feel you on this. But one thing I noticed is that when I work with the intent to improve, sometimes my art and mental health suffer. I know it’s counterintuitive and I would like to become more intentional about learning, but I have improved so much more from working within my comfort zone. Again, it’s kind of backwards but it helps me feel less overwhelmed and discouraged idk

[@cedricadougba324]

Thanks.

[@astraalforest]

The drawing in the video is incredible,and your advices are very helpful especially toward beginners! Keep going 🙏❤

[@_skyeline]

Thank you!! This comment was really nice to read and I'm glad the advice was helpful 😊

[@malubarroso]

Thanks a lot for the kick in the ass. I needed that. Also, loved your piece! Is the scientist an original character or from some piece of media?

[@vunshy]

dude, you are underrated af ☺

[@_skyeline]

Thank you so much for this comment, this means a lot to me! 😭🙏

[@zzitchy]

[@_skyeline]

More to come!

[@LessThanPi]

Great job!

[@_skyeline]

Thank you!! ❤

[@Rumeaa]

Waiting on you to takeoff -

[@Kittyboi.]

How do I improve if I’m already burned out? I’m autistic and have been dealing with autistic burnout so I’ve barely had the energy to draw but I want to draw literally every day…though usually every day things like school drains me so when I actually have the time to draw I don’t have the energy 💀

[@_skyeline]

This is a great comment! I'll think about it and perhaps I'll make a video on my take as well, perhaps that might help! 😉

[@ChandlerRobinsonCRV]

I just keep drawing shapes until everything is shapes

[@_skyeline]

Shapes are the essence and base of everything

[@MALICEM12]

"simple rendering, nothing too fancy" It's literally leagues above me and I can't make sense of how or why you are doing the things you are doing. Can you do a video explaining the process. I am WOEFULLY inept with digital software and do not understand any of this

[@_skyeline]

For sure! Process videos are on my list! I said simple rendering compared to what a lot of other mainstream artists might teach you 😂 but I get where you're coming from, stay tuned for more ❤

[@leserbeacerbe6910]

People say I am talented since I am a kid but I am stagnating a lot. I only can draw a few women poses but when I add a robot, a landscape, whatever, it looks quite bad.

[@_skyeline]

Trying too many things at once can hinder your art progression, you could check out my latest video about burnout if you haven't already!

[@leserbeacerbe6910]

@@_skyeline oh I'll do. Thanks!

[@RuTuSHI.]

Question, why did you layer everything with brown at first?

[@_skyeline]

Great question! It's my base skin layer, since every other layer will be topped, but I'll explain it in a later video what my process is

[@beyondlazy7463]

I related a ton with being better at sketching than digital painting and I want to improve in this aspect. Are there any resources that have helped you learn digital painting??

[@_skyeline]

KZbin is my primary source of information, however I did go to a university for digital arts animation for a bit, learnt a few things here and there, but on KZbin you can find some awesome artists that can help, like Marc brunet, samdoesarts, Feng Zhu just to name a few

[@beyondlazy7463]

@@_skyeline Thanks for the quick response!! I'll be checking those guys out!!

[@_skyeline]

@@beyondlazy7463 no problem! I'm planning to make some potentially helpful videos later on this channel too, so stick around if you're interested!

[@neptoon9965]

I don’t have the skill to draw my ideas which is my issue

[@_skyeline]

In the end almost everyone can develop the skill to draw, you just need to know where to look 😉

[@emrekulac3207]

Might be regressing even

[@_skyeline]

Oh noo, I hope you can get back on track with your art! 😭
