Thank you so much! I actually had a couple different attempts until I found something that worked well and fit the style of the rest.

It ended up less labor intensive than some previous attempts would've been, but still was a whole lotta work, so you might still want to try different approaches!

I basically made rough color sploches first, staying in darker shades. Then I used a basic round brush with the taper set to quicky reduce brush size with less pen pressure, that's how I get that leaf shape with quick short brush strokes. Then I just layered them from back to front, getting lighter in color.

Sorry it's a bit hard to describe in writing, I hope it makes any sense at all...

Thank you!!

Yeah I pretty much agree with you. I love love love the setting and vibes, but it seems hard to really make much progress on anything, but easy to get punished in a way that gets frustrating.

Though, we haven't played for long yet, so I want to wait a bit longer and think the mechanics through before a final judgement. And maybe there's ways to work it out or learn to work with the kinks it has. But it's good to know it's not just me who feels the mechanics to be a bit wonky!

That's so cool! I'd love to do some bird photography as well, but the cameras and lenses are so darn expensive :')

Thank you! After the woodpecker I made them fit certain sizes to frame them all together! Thought if I already put the work into it, might as well make them look good as decoration. That's where the off-white paper really brings it together I think!

Thank you so much! I wish I could get to a point where I can actually observe and draw them from real life and not just photos. But that's a next step then!

Thanks so much!

The best nopes tho 💛

Thanks hahaha!

Haven't heard of him before, will look it up! Thanks for the name drop 👀

I do have a couple of rubber plants, but I found them to not be much easier to handle 😅 mine don't flourish as they do for some people

Noted, thanks for the info!!

Thank you for your input! I think too much water really was the problem here. I hope it can recover, because sadly it's a new and pretty small plant, so I can't take cuttings of good leaves :')
