    first I need a proper art program because Medibang is too complicated...

    I started in MS Paint and worked up from there, but if you want something more advanced FireAlpaca is apparently a nice place to start.

  2. Okay! First off, use the absolute motherload out of reference pictures. If you’re a beginner, these will help you a lot. You can even trace them if need be, but give credit. Second, don’t be afraid to test the colour theory! Use abstract colours! Extreme contrast! Go nuts!

  3. More or less, this just drives me nuts:

    • CHILDREN CRYING I H A T E T H E M
    • When people address me in a public area 
    • When people tell me I’m an introvert (it’s worse when extroverts do this)
    • CHILDREN CRYING
    • When I’m sad and people are mad that I’m sad
    • Did I mention I hate the sound of children crying

  4. Admittingly, when I was younger, I used to shamelessly trace art sometimes. I never shared them, though; I just did them for fun. Nowadays, though, for practice I try to free-hand drawings while looking at references. I don’t necessarily copy them, I just use a reference for my own pleasure/to improve my skill.

    Example:

    (The original image that I didn’t draw; perhaps I should find the name of the artist?)

    (My version. I was inspired by the first drawing Because I’m gay for Lucina but didn’t necessarily trace it.)

    I only ever trace if I have to.
