Description
Well I'm going to be completely honest here: I think this pic is currently one of my lowest quality. Don't get me wrong, it's not horrible, but I find it disappointing. Why I'm posting this? Because I like her eyes.Anyways, bubbles are boring, am I right?
Kidding, Bubbles are amazing.

"I wanted it to be more synth wave or "aesthetic""
GIMP -> Filters -> Distort -> Video -> Wide-Striped
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahah! Damn that could work! (Better than what I have been doing with my video editing xD)
BUT for sake of my laziness, I'm going to download GIMP... tomorrow. Or maybe day after that.

there might be a similar effect in Photoshop or something; i just always used GIMP because it's free.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha I bet there is, Photoshop has all kinds of magical effects
I should use GIMP too, heard it's really good, but most likely I'm just going to stick to Paint Tool SAI until something tragic happens xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i use Paint Tool SAI for actual drawing, and usually use GIMP for more "abstract" artwork, or special effects (like the "video" thing), etc.
though i'm sure one could use it for normal drawing, too!

Yeah GIMP is good with that stuff 
True

It may be disappointing to you, but I like it. I love Pinkamena and bubbles too.

And I agree with the Pinkamena and bubbles~

Surprising you did not tweet it
are you that disappointed of that pic :/ ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, I kinda forgot it first and then just decided it didn't matter 
I should, BUT I'm lazy and want to make sure only my BEST is there... Odd that I say that while tweeting my sketches there xD hahaha
No, I'm just lazy and kinda feel it's TOO LATE NOW. xD haha

This is amazing, but... Pinkamena looks better covered with blood
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I though of just bathing her in blood, but man, I wanted those pastel colors there... And with after though I'm sure the blood had looked better xD hahaha Thanks~

Hehe, once again, you do yourself down far too much in terms of the quality of your artwork. I'm not exactly sure why you think it's bad, but I'll happily dispute it doggedly, like some kind of reverse-troll or something.
Speaking of trolling, I know this is totally off-face for the context here, but through a rather winding train of thought, and my typical love for weird esoteric trivia, this kinda reminded me of an old quote from Ozzy Osbourne from god-knows how long ago:
youtu.be/WCxObybYNjY
I know Finland, there's a real enough chance that Black Sabbath made it over there for this to not seem totally random and contextless, but I'll give it a go anyway!
I think it kinda fits anyway. "I'm Pinkamena Pie, princess of grimdark, I'm Evil! Buckin' Evil! What's bucking evil about a buttload of bucking bubbles!?"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahah I do yeah
... Man, Ozzy is great
xD hahahah Nice one, that one fits perfect!

Hehe, I say that, but I actually have no idea what synth wave is. You could point that jumpy bar thing some stereos did in the early 2000s, and call THAT synth wave, and I'd believe you. That said, and this is going to sound REALLY pretentious, but fuck it: I do kinda get a bit of an electronica vibe from the pic. I don't know if it's because when I think synth, I think electronica, and then I think the 80s, and then I think neon colours and good old British macabre, and then it circles back around to pink and pinkamena! So yeah, synth!
But yeah, I'll continue to try and be a terrible evil reverse troll, going around, stalking the internet, and trying to leave vaguely pleasant comments everywhere for giggles. Trollolololol!
Ah, it's all good! I don't think that's a bias, per say, that's just like an artist in a band you already like. I guess it makes sense in some ways, people might like Take That! but not be so big on Robbie Williams... I just realized I vaguely compared Robbie Williams to Ozzy Osbourne. I'll see myself out. But thanks! I am unduly proud that I had that quote tucked away in the big vaults of trivia I call my brain, taking up space where useful shit could go like every RPG inventory ever made!

Well I say that too and if you ask me what synth wave is I could only point to Trevor Something or Blank banshee
Yep, you're absolutely right
Damn you! You evil reverse troll have bested me ONCE AGAIN! ARGH!
xD
Clap and half to you xD haha
Pfff of course those RPG inventories come in handy! I mean I just booted up Skyrim yesterday for the first time in like year, and had NO idea where I was, what I had and what I was meant to do xD haha.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, okay, I see what you mean.
Heh, I've certainly had that problem before. Nowadays, I always try to leave clues for myself in the scene when I save to remind me what I'm trying to do. Anything from leaving the 1st person camera on and standing in front of the thing I want to use when I come back, or leaving things on a table in front of me for that same reason. Doesn't always work, but it does marginally improve my chances of remembering my plans for the next session.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh shit that's good idea. I should try it too. But for now I left GREAT surprise for my future self! I left her in one town where there is 2000 bounty on her head, and also there is quest NPC who literally tracks you down. Also teleporting guards. That will show her not to forget and leave herself in the middle of forest! AHAHA! xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, leightweight. Someone did the maths, if you actually DO get locked up for a 3k+ bounty, you get locked in prison for... Less than a week. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
... Well yeah they are easy, but I don't like taking any risks since I don't remember what my inventory had and I will be horribly paranoid I lost something xD hahah
But a week? Hahah xD Man they aren't messing around, real criminals are right there.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, that is a very real risk, and I have often sold things by accident which I actually really wanted to keep. In fact, that's a problem with inventories even outside RPGs. In the Sims 3 for instance, you can fish and you can garden, but you can make fertilizers for gardening out of all sorts, including fish. However, all the things you can catch, make or grow has a value, weight and quality assosiated with it, and with certain things you can send them off to be framed and made into house decorations, so you can show off your best catches. However, if you hit the 'fertilize garden with best fertilizers' option, there's a very real chance you might end up burying your perfect quality, 25kg swordfish to fertilize your shitty apple tree.
But yeah. I'm not even kidding. It also doesn't help that they clearly don't strip search you, so you always, always, always have a lockpick on hand when they lock you up. One wonders where the dragonborn had been hiding that one...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Och, I can feel your pain in that xD hahaha Happened to me way too many times, not in Sims 3 but in other games.
Hahaha xD Hey, who knows. Maybe dragonborn is good with magic tricks too and can pull lock picks behind the ear!
... I'm just trying to protect my childhood here ;-;

I wish I had that skill ;3;

Haha I'm glad you like it. I think I realized now why I'm disappointed in this pic (Heh it just hit me xD)! Thank you!
You wish? Looking at what I see I'm pretty sure you have it!

No way, it's not the same lvl, that's for sure (not yet).
You're welcome

Haha Not yet! Just keep on working xD I will be waiting you to CHALLENGE ME as the final boss!
Just kidding, final boss would be way up there xD But hey, I can be funny little mini boss

Hehe, I would rather like to ask for an advice than challenge anyone :'P
I choose a pacyfist route

Dammit, that's a lot better idea
Good choice~~

Hehe ^^
So, uhm, could you give me an advice on how could I improve my shading skills?
I would appreciate that a lot! <3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sure!
Shading is really something you can't learn if you don't study where to light comes and how it reflects. I'm sure you know that, and what I looked trough your recent pics you have good understanding where the shadows are and where not. So no problem there.
I myself tend to use really strong shading and shadows, maybe sometimes even going over board, but that's why it's good to use many layers to add detailed shading. If something doesn't work you can easily erase the layer or just tune the opacity. Also you seem to know the idea of using different colors tho shade, like yellow is best shaded with orange and so on, but basically I would advice to just sometimes go crazy and use some odd colors to shade, like for example in this "Bubbles are boring" pic I shaded Pinkamena's hair with blue. And if you don't like it you can always do it again, that's why layers are so good to use
Personally I think you have really good shading and color use going on, so to improve I think you should experiment, like add more light sources or make one really small light source, heck maybe try doing different color light sources. Also maybe try out doing really detailed shading and highlights, for example hair or eyes. It may take more long time but just keep being persistent!
Hope there was even a little something you can use ^^
