Trying To Get Out Of Art Block With Late Creatuanary

Trying to get out of art block with late creatuanary

first I picked because it was easy and second because someone said it. u can probably tell which prompts they are

A question about your world in general; why are non-humanoid sentient species compelled/pressured to look human?

It's by no way their choice. Maybe in some ways O.s choose to look more human but it's much more a cultural pressure and biology for them.

For Uniima ll is was sudden mutations in Uniima C and breeding of more humanish traits.

The reason is 100% designer influence since being humanoid doesn't have any special benefit compared to other body types. But why or how it was/is being done is unclear.

A popular theory for the elven people is that designers realized that human body is superior and other species are made to look like them. (this theory is dumb)

Other dumb one is that there's more magic closer to the ground and other species had to "get up" so that the harmful magic didn't hurt them. (many elves refuse to sleep on low beds because of this).

Many Uniima c believe their designer abandoned them to create demons (Uniima ll) that would compete elven.

And O.s think it's the designers deciding on peace and common form.

All of these are wrong. Science still isn't as popular and it will take more time to form a good theory that all classes (poor, nobles, etc.) would believe.

I'm sorry you had to read all that to find out I said nothing 😔

If you don't know much about designers here's a link. It doesn't explain a lot but some stuff. I have yet to make a decent designer post/page. This will hopefully get me to get some 'wiki' up.

And sorry for taking so long to reply

you might also notice I'm not fully decided on the reason

*Outdated*

Hi there, I have a really bad art lock today and I'm having a very hate-hate relationship with clip studio and rendering/coloring. Anyone has any tips for brushes or brush settings that won't make me feel like I'm actively fighting the program? Never felt this angry with sai or rebelle.

To that here is the sketch I destroyed today because I wanted colors 😑.

As context, it's a lazily designed Foru Uniima ll - living in a society with uniima c and sharing the same social norms.

This isnt a redesign of Uniima lls, this is just an individual with different traits.

By the way, if you have multiple or many questions, don't worry about making multiple asks, just spam my ask folder.

It makes it easier to answer and organise while also alerting you to the answer.

And I enjoy the answering very much.

I love your concept of the e-eua, the headless Uniima! I was wondering, bc they’re called “gods”, do other Uniima revere them? Maybe bc they survived such an injury? Do the e-eua eventually die?

-VERY OUTDATED-

Thank you!

Okay I will try to put it simple

Any livng organism can become a god with enough magic exposition. It's also dangerous to get close to a god since they emit it. They can only be killed with enough magic (basically impossible for big ones).

E-eua is only a single small god who's being visted by their family/partner simirarly to visiting a grave. However, if they were to be around for long enough peoples perception of E-eua would likely change with their size and magic influence. But this can take hundreds/thousands of years.

With size and power, gods start building up attention of the magic "industry", after that comes a "religion". The followers are those who will use the god's blood for their family member's magic transfer, sometimes being loyal to one god for generations to come.

The gods are usually not involved in the process by other means than blood sharing since they aren't conscious. But rarely their minds change and those will comunicate through feelings and often have a connection to their follower's magic use in some way.

Different gods can even have different magical focus. If it was veeeryy simplified lets say one is better at photon control and one at absorbing energy.

But again, being powerful to a point of creating full on illusions and fireballs is an extreme rarity even with the largest of gods.

Some zoom-ins since it's probably unreadable at that scale
