YO!

So I'm looking into elf stuff for my next campaign, and I found something interesting. If someone already found this or wrote about it, just ignore me, lol

For everyone who has discussed, "Why does Astarion remember Sebastián but not his own eye color?" HERE'S PROBABLY WHY!

To start with elfs are "children" until they are 50 years old or so. During this time their memories are kinda iffy, just like how when you think about your childhood it's kinda foggy.

NOW TO THE POINT!

Astarion was turned at 39, so he is still a "child" in elf culture (They're not considered adults until they're 100 btw), so he would have that same early memory fog, and that's why he can't remember what he looked like.

As for him remembering Sebastian, when they met, Astarion was 69 *noice* so he should be out of the "child" phase, and his memories are more permanent in away.

tl;dr

Astarion had the elven equivalent of human "baby" memory brain when he was turned, but when he met Sebastian, he was more memory brain stable.

Elves are fickle creatures, and in Dnd feel even more so.

Here's a link where I got my elf info ENJOY

YO!

In other news!!!

I'm so full of caffeine that the anxiety is strong! My hands need to be doing something, but I can't think of anything to draw!

Why does that read like it rhythms? Like if you say it outloud.

Anyway, this is a mini break day so I'm just sitting here trying to figure out how to channel the caffeine into something more creative. I can't work on my twst charms right now cause that's it's own little thing I want to keep separate right now from how I'm feeling because of personal stuff happening so I may finish that Himbo prompt.

I'm rambling now, lol.

Just expect a himbo lol.

Has this ever happened to you?!
person speaking: "okay I'm a big boy artist now, I've had this graphics tablet for x years, I should move up and a display tablet is the obvious choice!!

presenter: "HOLD UP!!! maybe it isn't? don't assume that a display tablet IS the automatic right way to go!"
i think there is a general idea that display tablets > pen tablets

but for me and others, display tablets don't offer any benefits compared to pen tablets!

i certainly had the belief when i was younger that i would eventually move to a display tablet once i saved up enough to buy one.

turns out, display tablets dont offer me any benefits and i actually dislike using them quite a lot!

Pen tablets have many pros!

- POSTURE. (save your back!) - your hand isnt in the way (via technology now you can see the whole drawing all the time) - save £$€ (wow are they cheaper) - smaller (transport very easily!)

on a personal note i find my lines are far more gestural on a pen tablet and i physically dont have to draw as large a line on my tablet than i would on a pen display which is more efficient 

HOWEVER...
the one pro a display tablet has over pen tablet is 1:1 hand position

for many artists this is a huge deal and the reason they prefer display tablets over pen tablets.

its is a easy swap if you are a trad artist moving to digital or frequently swapping between the two!

...and i absolutely hate this, not only does my back hate me after several hours (yes even with good positioning of the tablet) my gestural strokes vanish and my godamm hand is in the way.

BUT this is the main reason artists prefer display tablets.

pen tablets do require practice to get used to, and hand-eye co-ordination can take some time to train so if that's something you're struggling or just don't fancy worrying about, pen displays are great!
the point of this is to simply say:

if you get on with your pen tablet right now, don't think in the future, you definitely have to "upgrade". in fact, you might not get on with display tablets at all!
don't think you have to go and spent many dollars on an expensive piece of hardware that might add no benefits to you art/life
if possible, try before you buy, display tablets do not fit all artists, i'd rather be dead and buried than be told i have to use a display tablet for the rest of my life but this is not the same for everyone.

Ipad speaking: "but you own me??"

presenter speaking: "yeah so i dont have to lug a whole ass laptop around when i travel. i hate you"

a couple of people over the past few months have been surprised i use and prefer a pen tablet over a pen display so i thought i might do a little graphic about why pen displays shouldn't be thought of as the "final step" of every digital artist's hardware journey, more of a branching path option!

Unpopular opinion

AI art isn't Art.

You can use it on your own art to expand on what you made and see if you can or should change or add anything.

That's how it should be used. It should be used by Artists.

Not AI "artist"

Typing a description into a machine and having it pop out images isn't art.

Typing description into a machine and having it pop out a story isn't art.

Art is human expression, Art is a human thing.

AI art is just a program generated image or letters of mashed up pieces of human art.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

If you disagree or are offended by my stance on this matter the unfollow and block button are right there.
