I haven't even remade anything and I'm stuck trying to figure out what kind of dithering patterns I want to use. = v=;; I'm being silly, I should just do the sword/shield thing to knock the dust off. It's a simple enough model to build, and I can show you with side-by-side examples what I mean with my process.

It's not that bad. Use the smooth brush on it! What you've done is overlap the mesh onto itself, that'll bring it back.

Omg, I'm hooked now :vanora_xd:
Yeah I had accidentally made a protruding tower of clipping texture, so I just tapped around to see how bad I can get it to look haha
I imagine it'd be easier with my tablet rather than a mouse

If you're used to using a tablet to draw, it absolutely will be. Make sure to enable pen pressure!

I got sucked up into How To videos. But on the up side, I know what kind of dither patterns I want to use.

@ruby:
I have people I get along with irl but I have a hard time getting TOO close. Even my classmates hurt me recently and I've just started getting attached to them over christmas :vanora_sweat: Started to put in too much energy to cook for them and such.
So I just stay home, cook ramen and beg bf to play video games with me xD
Its so nice having a safe person like that, though!

Yeah idk what happened on there either. It was an interesting experience though. I wasn't super active, but any time I'd speak it felt like a mistake.
SAME
I started to think that recolor defined all the current online communities now. So glad that there's a mature, welcoming site like this one still <3




So sorry it took me so long to get back to you! I got distracted by the event and quest thread coding OTL
I totally get you on that. I get so attached really quickly when I like someone. i try not to be clingy and stuff but when I really click with someone and just want to be their friend I want them to like me and it just ugh x.x it sucks sometimes
but yeah I mostly stay home too. I have friends online and I see some every now and then (none live in my area) and I talk to the bf every day. It was so nice when he came to visit because we could just be together and watch something or eat yummy foods and it was lovely to not be by myself all the time haha

Yes! I wasn't active on there either (I liked making avis but that was it) I'd talk to a few people in messages but I only posted a few times because I just felt like an outsider too much
Voltra is so wonderful I already feel at home

@ruby:
lmao no its okay! Im the same way, I get distracted really easily.

Yeah I used to get attached so quickly to others. I miss being a kid when it was so easy lol All I had to do was tell someone they had an awesome blanket in 3rd grade and bam. Best friends for-almost-ever. Not anymore but it was a good run lmao
Its awesome having someone you can just chill and be introverted with though <3

Yeah I like it on here. Coming to enjoy pantheon also!

@Jolly: haha yeah right? And “I’m not gonna be your friend anymore” was like the biggest threat ever xD

I’m extremely introverted so I’m glad most of my friends now are okay with that. My best friend in middle school was the opposite and it was hell xD

Pantheon is also lovely yes! <3 most of my mene friends are over there haha

@ruby:
Right? I dont think anyone has said that to me seriously, since I only had the one friend growing up.
now that I think about it, making friends was actually never easy LOL I'm good at contradicting myself.

Yeah I'm glad my bf is introverted too. We have strengths where the other has weakness when it comes to social situations, which works out very well. What one is too anxious to deal with, the other will handle it haha and at any point when his friends/family want to do something, I can trust him to listen if I'm like, not today plsss

I see a lot of the same people from here on there also. So I have to try not to make threads that kinda repeat themselves (not that I do that much on sites) xD gotta remind myself the audience is the same.

@Jolly: haha don’t worry i had a tough time too. In elementary i went to a small school where there were more boys than girls in the class so this one girl kinda roped me and another into being her friend because she knew we’d pretty much be her minions since there wasn’t much of a choice for friends. So she used that “I’m not gonna be your friend anymore” threat a lot
We finally got more girls in the class a few years later and got smarter and when she pulled that again we were like “bye Felicia” it was a glorious day xD

But yeah after that i really didn’t have that many friends. Like maybe 1 per year. It was lonesome lol but now i have great friends even if they aren’t close to me physically haha

That’s good that you balance each other out! My bf pretty much does all of that extrovert stuff for me lol and then when he’s stressed i talk him down. But yeah me no talk to strangers lol

Unless its online xD I’m good at chatting online xD

Haha thats very true! I think we could use a pixel hangout on panth tho :3 maybe just have different themes than here that way if its the same people its not the same project :o

@ruby:
Eww I hated kids like that. I saw that slave/friend trope a lot, and I was the kind of kid to call them out on it lmao I wasn't always nice about it though. Awkward kid full of pent up frustrations and all.
I also felt that I can force respect from people if I win (I was bullied hardcore) so I got in a few fights around middle school age xD It worked, but damn I was a psycho child. I still have a small scar on my knee from one incident, which resulted in this boy dropping on his knees to apologize to me. I felt so bad, I wanted to patch it up and be friends, but then I literally moved out of state a week later. Sad me.

I thought of having a pixel hangout on there too! I hesitate because I scarcely have time for one (still havent drawn the current new themes yet, but I will!), and I dont want to run something like this if I'm not gonna participate as well.

@Jolly: yeah right? You hope they grow out of it but they usually don’t.

Haha you’d never catch me fighting xD I was the shy quiet bookworm kid. I focused on my work. I wasn’t really bullied, just invisible. Which is fine. I liked to blend in.

I totally get that. I was the same way with my avatar contest haha maybe I’ll open another one when I have more time/things to give away
