Silas Zee: Better Now?

Better Now?

WARNING PROFANITY-LADEN NERD ARTIST RANT AHEAD

According to some assholes on Deviantart one of my Kaori pieces is shit because I drew her holding her bow wrong or something.

I know what you're thinking, "Silas, why the fuck were you reading comments on Deviantart?" Yeah, that was my first mistake. I swore off being active on DA because the community is full of turbonerds and shitheads now but there I was, reading comments for whatever fucking reason. I thought I had thicker skin than that but for whatever reason I let it get to me and actually had me depressed for a while. It got to the point where I didn't want to draw anything, Kaori or otherwise (but especially Kaori).

But then I started drawing this and almost instantly started feeling better.

Her hands are kinda jacked but whatever, this was a ton of fun. All of it was fun, even the stupid inks. I love how her dress turned out. I love how her violin turned out. I love how her hair turned out. I love how her "Fuck off I'm fucking done" expression turned out.

I think all artists let stupid shit get to us. It's gonna happen, so channel that shit. I ended up drawing one of the best Kaoris I've done yet and it was super cathartic to boot.

So how's her bow hand now, asshats?

Still inaccurate?

GOOD.

NOW FUCK OFF.

:D
