RE: Daily Doodle #15: Tawny Frogmouth
aaaaaah love your birdies :> they are so expressive <3 always seem to be having opinions of their own and going through lives emoting on everything they are feeling inside XD
very adorable <3
Lol, thank you so much. I had never even heard of this kind of bird, so when I saw the first reference image, they immediately went in the "must draw" list :)
Also, thank you so much for the resteem! You are awesome!!
i love curating great art!!! so, you are most welcomed for the resteem !! keep up the good work :D
can i also give you tips ? if you are open to feedback ?
i'd like to see you gain more success here at steemit, for your posts :D
Of course! I survived a graphic design and illustration degree, so I’m always open to constructive criticism and recommendations. Hit me with everything you’ve got.
well your artworks are great, but your posts can be made strongerer! like if possible you should let others get to know you so, here are a few tips that have worked for me (hope they can also boost your payouts!!!)
firstly, make things personal, because people love to get to know other people. People love talents, also, but at the end of the day, people love to connect with other people :>
Studies and interesting subjects can show off skills, but if you state what particularly attract you to something in terms of 'personal reasons', it usually makes the posts more accessible to others. For example, stories behind why you chose the tawny frogmouth can be more than just their cute shapes, maybe it's because it reminds you of a childhood storybook because they seem to be childlike or something like this. It makes the reasons more personal than just finding their proportions adorable :>
the rest of your posts are already becoming better and meatier ! continue with some step by step or video clips of your arting process, also! people love those !
i really enjoyed your timelapse drawing of the lion, and i was eager to curate that one for c-squared (im a curator there) but it needed more text. it needed more you. to be honest, i've been waiting since then for you to drop another post with step-by-step piccars or video clip, because i think you are talented and underappreciated.... so i wanna bring more love to your bloggy :D
hope that helps, a little? keep up the good work, @hglucky13!!! i love your stufffff !!!! <33333333
Thank you so much! I have not been spending as much time with me blog since having a baby, but you’ve confirmed that I may need to start putting a bit more time into writing my posts. For instance, I actually picked the frogmouths because they reminded me of my cute (albeit annoying) Furby’s from childhood. I wrote the post so fast that o totally forgot to put that in :(.
(Also, I have another time lapse coming coming down the pipeline. Ripley REALLY slows those down, though, so I can only work on them over the weekend.)
I really appreciate the advice and will do my best to start implementing the suggestions you gave. I mostly just need to slow down and give myself a bit more time to write the posts.
Thank you again.
wow! nice sketching and Amazingly cute looking
Thank you! I can’t take all the credit, though. They’re already pretty cute to begin with. :)
