No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

"Bad" I can't say, you took no risk, and thus made no mistakes, but also displayed little skills.

Using triangles for the bodies is a good idea, as triangles are a good shape, you can do anything with triangles. Have you consider increasing the amount of triangle, as such?

two triangles bodies more triangles

yet more triangles

I dropped the round heads in the last one, because honestly, circles are an overrated shape. And you can do anything in triangles, why use anything else?

You can find any number of foolish ressources online, none of them tells you the truth about triangles. All sorts of websites and yet more websites try to teach you how to draw, without even mentioning triangles in any of their tutorials.

Any homemade card is more thoughtful than a purchased one. So I don't think it matters if you are a good artist or not. It's a thoughtful message and you created it yourself.

If all your art looks like the single image provided, then the honest answer would be yes, unfortunately. That said, one image with minimal content isn't much to go off, and as with any skill, this will change over time, esspecially with practice. Notably, this also looks like something dedicated to a loved one, so at that point intent matters more than artistic skill anyway.

I-

I don't get it. What's 24? And why is the first dialogue on the right, considering English is a left to right reading language?

And no, I don't think you're a bad artist. No one's a bad artist. Everyone has their own way of expressing and drawing.

[–] AuroraBi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’m turning 24

Also, the first dialogue is on the right because that’s who’s speaking. Considering I draw everyone of the same gender identically, I should’ve reversed the speech.

Height matters too. You can have text on the right be "first" but it needs to be obviously higher on the page.

I like it on a kind of way.

Makes me think, which is good.

It feels simple. Not mean "look simple" but feel simple.

No idea if that's good or not.

Overall, yes, you are a good artist. Just because. I didn't do it but you did, so you a much better artist than me.

Show me some of your art and I will be happy to give my opinion
