is this what arin is referring too in the episode or have I finally gone insane.

Just finished the latest Waterpark Simulator episode about Dan trying to learn to draw and had a similar issue with just not liking / being able to put what i see and imagine onto a page in any decent fashion. I tried a lot of physical art styles; graphite pencil sketching, inking, and Pastel / Acryllic painting but found myself insanely hesitant to put anything down or hating what i had already done.

What helped me was trying Digital sketching with my Ipad with Procreate and an Apple Pencil. With some searching on Marketplace you can get set up for a decent entry level price.

Pros:

You can quickly erase lines that don't quite look right until you get what you want to see on the screen.

Different Brushes and things like opacity / size adjustments means you can easily find out what works for you in whatever manner helps support your vision.

The tools available can help bridge the gap with difficult things like shading and subtle features. I use the blending tool and airbrushes to be able to draw incredible shading gradients very quickly once you know the techniques.

Multiple layers allows you to be able to test and experiment without having to worry about permanent results such as physical drawings / painting does. So you can just mess around with various tools and brushes and see if anything clicks with what you want to happen.

Hey! A few days ago I posted about a fan project idea, and it seemed a lot of people were down to participate! Awesome! I’m just sounding the siren again to get more people, so if you’d like to be involved, shoot me a DM or just comment!

Thanks! Peace and love! ☮️

Dan wasn't kidding about Action Park

I'd like to make a park called L'aqua Du Chat, and make it black and white and pink French themed, very refined, as an alternative to the more Americana Dog Water on the other side of town
