This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Micron pens on paper. Sometimes I'm just a basic bitch who likes to sketch a cubone.

This is awesome!

Did you spend a lot of time underdrawing with light pencil, or is this more of a doodle using just the marker?

I love how clean and dynamic it is. It just has that "cute but badass" quality we love Pokemon for, but also looks like something you'd see in an old school TTRPG manual. :D

It was an older pencil sketch I forgot about, went over it with pen for fun. I'm nowhere near brave enough to rawdog the pen layer. Thanks, I was never that into pokemon, but I do love cubone.

Dang, that is really crisp! It jumps off the page. How big is the page? 3x4?

[–] Wren@lemmy.today 3 points 4 days ago

About that size, it's on my small sketchpad.

Damn that’s sick! Do you have a pixelfed account for your art?

[–] Wren@lemmy.today 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

No but I should. I locked down all my accounts on corpo media years ago, keep meaning to start a website. Pixelfed would be easier for now.

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Post it here! I’d certainly follow for your art. Been on pixelfed for a bit and it’s pretty chill and they recently banned all Ai models and automated accounts from Pixelfed.social

[–] Wren@lemmy.today 3 points 3 days ago

I appreciate that. I'm just kinda all over the place with my art, so I want to have a strategy and a goal if I do social media again. Glad to hear they banned AI though, that's a definite bonus.
