Greetings, I'm The New Asshole You'll Be Dealing With🖤 Please Come Pick Up This Random Person I Kidnapped

hey i don't want to be mean but since samirah is hijabi it's bad form to show her neck or hair. i know riordan does it in the books but his portrayal of her there is quite bad - there are lots of guides on the ways to draw hijabi respectfully if you look them up

Dear I'm a Muslim myself

I know about hijab's rules...

The reason I let a few strands of hair show was pretty personal, as an Iranian hijab was abusively forced to me, and in school they used to terrorise us with threats like if one strand of your hair shows, youre going to be hung over from that on strand in hell.

The way Samirah was described, she isn't very bound to traditions. She has her own beliefs. Even if theyre not totally Islam-accurate, theyre hers, with her allah.

Thats why I let a few strands of hair show, to show its not THAT serious, a few strands is more than fine.

And for the neck, different muslims have different beliefs, depends on you honestly.

Basically, seeing Samirah's fanart on google and stuff, i get it, its offensive cuz like theres a lot a lot of hair showing.

But a few strands of hair will always seem fine to me...

I hope i explained this well?

Sorry if i got too personal. Hijab is something i can talk about for days😅

If Artemis and Alex got into an argument/fight, what would that look like? 😅

I like to think that sometimes Artemis gets aggressive because of his mental issues in TAC

So.... yeah. :)

Sth i forgot to post

I couldn't decide between these two

After ages

I finally used my light pen

Introduction!

"What have they done to you?"

This put my artistic abilities into way too much challenge.

you're so so talented i can't believe you're 13!! i could only dream of being as talented as you

any tips for beginner digital artists?

Awe my god! Thank you😆💕

You know talent isn't a certain factor, and age doesn't matter, so don't let yourself down 🙃💫

For a bunch of tips..

I'd say practice your lines a lot, weather youre a beginner or not, practicing lines and stuff like circles matter a lot. Do it before each painting or drawing, it gives you control.

Other than that, don't bound urself to drawing digitally, drawing on paper helps you improve a lot too

Work on multiple layers, and then merge them. This always saves my life and helps me continue on without anxiety, and at the same time not have so much of a busy panel

use references for obvious reasons

Be observative, try figuring out how stuff work in real life

Give your lines weight, and lastly don't shade with black

That's all I can think of at the moment lol, saying these based on mistakes I ms used to make, hope this helps you :* remember to practice:)

Ah yes the miserable demon and his emotional support angel
