Keep it up man! Drawing is a pain and it almost always frustrating but practice makes it easier

@skullgrind Thanks for saying that. I always do. Drawing has become one of the most consistently satisfying things in my life. It’s just like anything. You can get in a creative rut or a tangle, and sometimes ya gotta take some refresh time and come back to it with different energy.

This was the next prompt: “Precious”. I had a planned sketch that I liked, which was the drawing on the right. I drew it out twice and couldn’t get it to look like my sketch. So I finally tried to directly ink my sketch out of frustration, and then messed up on the arm/hand. I usually don’t have problems with any of this stuff.

These were when I had my first bit of trouble at inktober. This is for “Exhausted” and I couldn’t manage to quite get my idea the way I wanted. I rarely plan drawings or use reference, so if a drawing requires more, I can often jump into it and have it come out awfully. I also wasn’t thinking about the guy’s bodily position next to the car, or how the car body sits low and hides most of the inner view of the tire very much. I should have drawn the guy lying down underneath the car with his head tilted back, and that only just dawned on me. But anyway, in the second picture, I used reference for the car and it came out way better, and I at least had the guy coming out of a sewer. I’m pretty happy with the second picture, but this is the first time I’ve posted it. I tried to just move onto the next prompt and had more trouble…

Tumblr was removed from the App Store after it was found to be serving child pornography

“We’re committed to helping build a safe online
environment for all users, and we have a zero tolerance policy when it
comes to media featuring child sexual exploitation and abuse. As this is
an industry-wide problem, we work collaboratively with our industry
peers and partners like the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
(NCMEC) to actively monitor content uploaded to the platform. Every
image uploaded to Tumblr is scanned against an industry database of
known child sexual abuse material, and images that are detected never
reach the platform.

A routine audit discovered content on our platform that
had not yet been included in the industry database. We immediately
removed this content. Content safeguards are a challenging aspect of
operating scaled platforms. We’re continuously assessing further steps
we can take to improve and there is no higher priority for our team.”

There still aren’t any details on when the Tumblr app might return to
the App Store, but the social network says the offending content was
removed and that it is working with Apple to make the app available.
Throughout this situation, Tumblr has remained available via the Play
Store for Android users despite the brief availability of child
pornography.
