Tattoo Inspiration Artist Needed

My friend is looking for some tattoo Inspo. She is tomboy-ish but still likes feminine things. Does someone want to sketch up a little tattoo for the side of a hip with flower/mountain-ish range? Go ham, we’re trying to find some cool ideas...

Art Prompt Story: The Flayed Archon

A kid trapped in a world where everyone else has been reduced to mindless thralls to an authoritarian god, his only solace was to look to the void itself for his salvation, and it came in the form of an outer god in the form of an odd man dressed how one might imagine a modern gentleman might be. He offered him the power to combat this divine adversary at the cost of a painful ritual, which he, without hestitation, agreed to. Within a flash, all of his skin had been cleanly separated from his body, the pain was unimaginable, and it drove his already unstable mind further into the maw of insanity, he blacked out. When he awoke, he was wrapped in bandages of his own torn off skin and wearing an ornate silver mask, now with an understanding of his newfound powers, he could create any nightmarish monster he could imagine, and whatever looked upon his face under his mask (Him not included) would go mad from seeing their deepest fears manifested. This came at a cost though, as to use his powers he had to regularly assimilate the souls of powerful beings, every full moon he must consume the souls of the higher beings he has defeated.....

A story I made from a writing prompt, hope this inspires someone

I may not be the flashiest person at the Westchester Academy for the supernaturally gifted but I'll be damned if I'm not one of the strongest. I always had a love for studying, I could study for hours upon hours each day and it didn't matter what I studied I loved it all. By the time I hit middle school was when I discovered my power. I knew I would go far in life with my knowledge and love for studying but I never expected it to make me powerful. At first I thought it was a time based power, I was in history when it started, I had altered the timeline and accidentally caused the great depression to start a couple years earlier that it should have. A couple of days later I discovered that my original assessment was wrong when I was studying physics and got a paper cut. When I focused on trying to change history it had healed in seconds. Once the academy was founded my parents sent me immediately. I was amazed at the powers some of the kids had. Flight, super strength, one kid even had telekinesis. My power felt small compared to theirs, so I ended up focusing on my studies like I did in the normal schools I used to attend.

My next test was math. I was both scared and excited for what new ability or abilities I could unlock. The test itself was in a couple weeks so I had time to study. After the first couple of days I was a vision, It was the day the math test was handed back to us I had gotten a hundred. A few moments later I saw the same vision but I had bombed the test, I had started to panic until I was brought back to reality. When I awoke my dorm mate was shaking me "You were lying on the floor and choking on something, I didn't know what was happening so I tried to get you up" He said. I thanked him for saving me before going back to my thoughts. I could see the see any mathematical probability of the future, I was damn happy. I decided to test this out again with some dice. I got six dice and tried to see if I could see what the future held. This time I saw 14,000 of the possible outcomes before I got a massive headache and passed out. When I awoke I noted that I couldn't handle more than a few thousand possibilities. I then thought about getting all fives, this was mathematically a miracle, I focused on it and looked into the future to see that it was a possibility. I rolled and all the dice were 5's. I did this again, focusing on getting all 1's this time, and I rolled all ones. I repeated this a few more times change the number each time. When I had finished testing my abilities I knew for certain that I could not only predict the future but also control the possibility of the outcomes. I felt like I had won the superpower lottery, being able to not only change the past but decide the future as well. The day of the test came and past and I had passed with flying colors. The next big test was the fighting festival that the school had scheduled. Many kids are confident, but none more than I. Everyone was excited to fight each other and go all out, but their chances of winning are mathematically zero.

My Brain went on a random tangent and now I would love to see this

It is a group of friends. All of which are human versions of popular drinks:

Mountain Dew is an asshole with a tough guy complex but is kind to his friends

Spite is an cute nerdy guy with some good jokes

McDonald's Sprite is Sprite's mean and aggressive little brother

Mellow Yellow is a stoner, cooler version of Mountain Dew.

Coke is the classic All American Boy.

Diet coke looks up to Coke but hates his guts for being more popular with the ladies.

Any fantas are the lovable gay boys.

Powerade is the fitness nut.

Sweet tea is the cute girl of the group

Unsweet tea is Sweet tea uppity mean twin sis.

Dr. Pepper is a country boy living a simple and happy life.

If you want to draw it please show me the end result!!

Character design challenge 2.0

Recently i have been posting “jazzas ultimate character design” on here to help decide what i draw however it was a lengthy and flawed system resulting in my second iteration of the system here’s how it works: below will be a series of topics, you can choose to answer one, many or all if you wish and i will design a character from the result. There will be examples next to the subject however you do not have to use one of them but can if you wish. (These characters are all set in a DND, Tolkien fantasy-esk world)

Gender (this needs no explanation just male or female form)

Body type (petite, muscular, tall, etc) use as many as you see fit.

archetype (ranger, rogue, Demi god, etc) nothing to complicated like a drider try and keep it humanoid.

Physical feature (scarred, tattooed, one arm, etc) go into more detail if you want like wear they are scarred or if you go with say blind how they are blind.

Weapon (bow and arrow, sword, spear) remember its fantasy so no guns

If you like i will credit all those who answer especially the ones i choose if i get more than one answer and even if your not chosen first i will most likely get to your answer and i do appreciate it.

Jazzas ultimate character design part2

Here is a chance to decide what i draw next by answering a simple question.

Down in the comments i want somebody to answer a question to which I’ll reply with another question this will happen a few times. Anybody can answer and eventually well have a character. At the moment I’m practicing more of my females characters and fantasy characters so the first question will be a fantasy profession? (Wizard, ranger, rogue etc)

Comment your answer of if u have a question of how this works. And yes the results will be posted once done along with some credit to those who help with the prompt unless you ask me not to.

How do I get back into doing art if I stopped enjoying it?

I started digital art in august. The enthusiasm is long gone now and whenever I want to draw, I just don't feel like doing it at the same time. I really want to draw again but my head is blank. Anything that could help me get out of this stupid feeling is welcome. Thanks.

Does anyone have something they would like me to draw?

I'm desperately bored. Light NSFW is okay but I kindly reject straight up porn. My skills are limited but I can do fem characters okay. Any original characters? I'm assuming this is the right subreddit.

Self-suggestion Technique

This is a psychological exercise to study how the values, opinions and ideas of a person and how they associate with each other.

It can be used to process information as a form of creating very expressive colleagues about otherwise difficult topics. For example, vague spans of time, traumas, concepts without words to name or describe them. This gives them a useful form to think about. Art in its finest.

Shortly;

I will ask vaguely things to draw. You draw things according to instant creativity feedback. You carry on with this without questioning the content you come up with. Later you analyze what the ideas pulled out actually mean, and what deep down makes say those answers?

The exercise;

  1. warmup. imagine a new folder in your pc or phone gallery with your surname on it. What kind of pictures just feel like being there? don't think about too hard. it just instantly makes sense for there to be... some sort of pictures of... some kind. that felt kinda obvious sensation, maybe kind of stupid, but yeah sure... Hmmm did you get it? Good. you got this.
  2. you see a door. each with a word on them. the first has the word "mind" and has some symbolic elements representing your viewpoint of thinking, planning, analyzing, and imagining. now draw the door with all the details- the material it is made out of, what is handle like, is there a handle? is there a lock? fill all details you can imagine.
  3. after drawing the door completely, open it inside your head. if you imagined something already in the last step, blank it out, and open specifically the door you just draw, as if it was different than the door you thought about.
  4. visualize the shape of the room, lighting, color palette, mood, ambiance. highlight the unknownness of things or weird details. think the initial scene completely. now, draw the room.
  5. leave the room be. now, visualize two other doors the same manner, except these two have the words "body" and "heart" as if a continuation that the "mind" had just started.
  6. pick up any worthwhile objects or details on the rooms and study if they have something to tell you.
  7. NOW if you feel brave, imagine a shady door you didn't seem to notice, as if it was part of the series. it has some weird characters in place you cant read. its a door you have maybe once opened in your life, maybe never. it feels timeless or ancient. Now you suddenly have a once-use key to it- so what is behind the door? could you put to words what it represents?

Have fun :) There are many door to be unlocked. Some might not open easily.
