Art Help Blog (?)

Once upon an arbitrary time, a friend once tried to start an art help blog, specifically for the purpose of helping everybody with their art work, I think back then it was just a "post your art and we'll critique it/help you fix it" type deal.

But now I'll pose this question:

Is this something you'd like to see again?
A general hub to post something you're working on to ask for feedback/help from the community?

And if so? Anything else you could use? Maybe a place to ask if there's a tutorial on how to do something, or how to find such and such resource/reference? And also probably branch out into writing help as well for the authors out there?

Because if that's a thing y'all want, I can go ahead and start on that and make a simple, neat little thing with something like this and/or any suggestions you have.

I dunno, it's 4:30 am my time and I was almost drifting off and my mind went "ooh, remember that one cool thing your buddy did?" lol
Just thought I'd pose the question~

You know... -rolls all over

You know... -rolls all over this-

I think it's a great idea. Would be nice if we could get multiple good artists in it to help too. Bring the community together more. I've seen a group of good artists here who seem to not comment much (if at all) on others' work. Would be nice to get a variety of opinions to listen to. Work together as a group.

Aha, I do remember something

Aha, I do remember something like this and I found it very helpful! I'm sure it would be a successful thing if that came back again. A very nifty idea.

Go to sleep ya big silly ;>

Acacia - that's my goal,

Acacia - that's my goal, hopefully XD I also really think it could boost someone's artistic confidence, because I notice people being kind of timid or unsure and they sort of hold back and it'd be kind of nice to get more people to share their work.


Bayleen - <3

and haha I tried, was not the most successful |D sleep is hard, yo.

Mmm more 4 am ideas please! I

Mmm more 4 am ideas please! I think this is a lovely thought, both as an encouragement for artists and a means of connecting members of the community more. All too often something doesn't feel right, but not everyone has another set of eyes that could help. Hope this becomes reality soon!

LooksForDoves - I am

LooksForDoves - I am pondering the content to put in right now actually haha, nothing to fancy but just something neat and organized. And I agree, creators of all sorts benefit from multiple sets of eyes on their work ^^


Evern - *thumbs up* ;P

I could really use it right

I could really use it right now, haha.

I'm trying to design Tarragon for my husband but he's looking at it through a phone, and that darkens the colors a bit. A rich medium-dark chocolate brown shows up as black to him, so he doesn't know what changes he wants me to make. I've got several variations for him but he doesn't see much of a difference. And when compared to 90% of the other designs out there, it can't even compare even the slightest. I want something really good for him while keeping it unique without digging further into our savings than I already am to buy a custom for him.

It might be tomorrow before I can help but I'd certainly try to do what I can for you |D
