iirc correctly, "about arm's length" is the distance most people will view art at? That's increased, of course, for art intended for gallery settings.
But there's also a practical reason for considering how reduction affects your work. Reducing can affect quality of linework for the better. It...
I think the line width is absolutely fine.
You gotta consider what it's gonna look like when it's reduced; when I viewed it at 1/2-ish size (what it would display at, on most monitors), it looked nice.
I don't really have any 'proper' OCs that I've ever made art for, so I guess I'll just post up my avatar/'fursona'/whatever you'd call your artistic stand-in, when you doodle.
A protoceratops with a mood-frill. No one ever said avatars had to make sense. :V
I've got two drawings I yet owe folks, but I've been struggling to get pen to tablet for the last week or so. irl has not been the best.
So here's a collection of random, loose doodles from the past... month? Two?
Hopefully, I'll have some proper finished stuff to show in the next few days.
Use your [laughs in Sac/Yuba/Redding] while you can, at least. The Southland is dumb, and it doesn't look like we've got any chance of changing. Might as well mock us for it.
ETA: when you make recordings, I'd love to see them!
I feel that in my soul. Every time I have to go out, I feel like the rest of the day is shot, and it's all I can do to just lay there, nevermind art or chores.
On a less-depressing note, I am super enjoying seeing your in-progress stuff. Watching the drawings come together is A+.
I read somewhere that keeping track of your progress is supposed to help with time management.
And I'm slow at art. Like, really, really slow. Spectacularly slow. Because I'll try to ink for a bit and then SQUIRREL. Nevermind a page a day. There are times I can't even manage a sketch a day...
I'd love to do an art trade, if you're game, but I'm in the middle of a few things at the moment -- would you be cool with a rain check for a later date? :3 ?
Since it's two characters, it might take me a little bit. I have some other things I'm working on, and I don't think I'd be able to fit a two-character sketch in, in my breaks.
