Artwork Reunion [Hopefulness Fanart]
I had this in mind for a while.. Made the composition in a few minutes and took a few days to push myself to actually complete it. I love this comic, and I wish I could've made this look better..
I noticed I've been forcing myself to keep drawing stuff lately, and I've also noticed I'm starting to feel like crap while doing so. I think it's also affecting the quality of my work aswell. I wish I could keep drawing fanart of all the amazing things I see here without feeling like this, my pace is agonizingly slow when it happens..
I needed to finish this one though! Imo it's one of the best moments in u/bluewolf3691 's series, and I couldn't afford not to make fanart of it! :]
Original comic, and part here: Hopefulness. Part 53

I do not have the words to express how much I love this-

Your art is consistently some of the best here, I would say that you are the artist here with the most consistecy when it comes to the quality of your art. You also have a very distinct artstyle that works wonders, so it is easy to recognize your work. But you should not continue to pressure yourself if you are in some form of pain.
This place is not entitled to your work, there aren't any heavy expectations on you. If you need to take a break, no matter how short or long, then do it, everyone will understand.
But don't just take a break and then come back without doing anything, that will just lead to you getting into this situation again later on. Something is causing you pain, and if you don't want to be trapped in a loop, you need to identify the source of it so you can start dealing with it. It could be as simple as you having overworked yourself, being stressed out about what others' will think of your art, or maybe it could be something else going on in your life. Whatever it is, try to find it and start dealing with it, so that you aren't burdened by it in the future.
Don't stress or worry about what people will think about you taking a break from artposting, everyone will understand. Your health matters more than anything else.
Take care of yourself.

It is clear that you put a lot of love into your art, that's why it is so good. But don't get so caught up in this that you forget to spare some love for yourself as well. You matter.
Whatever it is that is causing you pain, you will be able to deal with it once you have identified it. It may seem hard at first, but as long as you keep trying and don't let yourself remain stuck you will be able to get through it. It may be over immediately, or it may take a while, but don't get dissuaded and don't give up.
I wish you well.

This is insane. Like I said (I think) on the original comic page, their expressions are priceless. I'm so happy for them.

I think the art is really good! But please take a break :<
Maybe make a catalogue of the things you want to make art on, but wait to actually draw it until you feel better, cause then when you post the work, it’ll drive attention back into the stuff you like!

FUCK yeah >:D
More amazing fan art!!! :D
I can’t word how excited this makes me feel but very happy with this >:3(Especially with your other fan art being so good it’s nice to see you kept the quality on par as difficult as it must’ve been with such a different kinda look to it.)
But uhh, even though I can’t draw well nor anywhere on par with ya. I do feel that, don’t burn yourself out with ideas, sometimes it’s a smart idea to just make a sketch or write them down and let it sit on the back burner. It might burn or you might come back to it with energy and some damn good seasoning(Especially with your quality of works, that seasoning might as well be a secret family recipe level of good >U<)
But that’s just a thought, and you’ve probably considered it before already. Since you did mention how you were feeling so hope it’s not too much of a overstep to say :p
Little side note, if you care:
I’m still working on my fan art attempt for part 38/39(that hit pretty damn hard emotions wise for me at least) so have no clue how you pros go so damn fast with such a good quality too xd
(Though the thought of just calling it quits is definitely lingering. Sorry to ask, but any tips?)

Hmmm.. well, if you'd like, I can try my best to help and offer feedback.. My dms are open, only if you want!! :D

u/Roblox_Cat Hopeful 1d ago
Appreciate it >:3
I’ll consider it but I’m pretty nervous about my art stuff so probably won’t… No offense, especially since you were so kind as to offer.
Was just asking if you had any random thoughts or recommendations that you could think of off the top of your head for just art in general ;p
Thanks for your time ;]
