Which rendering style do you prefer: simple or detailed? I think both are great - in fact, the more styles you can pull off, the better! Here’s my thoughts on that ✨ This is a preview of my tutorial video on different rendering styles! You can find it over on my Patreon.
YO, EVERY SINGLE PERSON HAS TO SEE THIS ACTUALLY
I...tried to make a meme and got carried away and made A Thing that is like partially unfinished because i spent like 3 hours on it and then got tired.
I think this is mostly scientifically accurate but truth be told, there seems to be relatively little research on succession in regards to lawns specifically (as opposed to like, pastures). I am not exaggerating how bad they are for biodiversity though—recent research has referred to them as "ecological deserts."

ROTTMNT, but it's pixel art :D
I made some pixel arts based on some screenshots from the series.
My favorite is the one where Raph is in space because I LOVE the space aesthetic :3
If you want you can use them as a wallpaper for your computer.
It's not 100% true to the originals, but that's because I didn't want it to be. Here are the original images:
Have a good day :>

Hey, so if you have Windows 11 installed and have been losing your mind over the fact that you can't find your own files because Windows is now prioritizing internet search results first, you can fix it by following this guide:
As someone with over 900 GB of intentionally and properly named files on her computer (I do a lot of digital art and digital media work that requires high-volume files that function off of dependencies), this feature was making me furious. I followed the above instructions and can confirm that the method outlined solves the problem.
I have just tried this, it works and the explanation how to do it was so user friendly and clearly laid out.
10 and 11 are also kinda secretly adding Windows Copilot to your computer when you're not looking. Even without software updates. You can follow this guide to disable Copilot
The guide uses a program called gpedit (group policy editor), if you can't find it on your computer, follow this guide to install/enable it, and remember to always run as administrator:
Run these commands in command prompt.
- Win + Q
- Search: command prompt
- Right-click > Run as admin
- Copy, paste, and enter these commands:
FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package~*.mum") DO ( DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F" )
FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package~*.mum") DO ( DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F" )
- Test it by opening Win + R
- Type: gpedit.msc
- See if it opens
Everyone apologize to Shrek 3 and Shrek Forever After right now

I love how @beaniebea make marks for Raph and I just wanted to draw him with that one marks. And hehe yep :P
Exercises for all the homies who want to have a long career drawing.
The true problem with being an artist and drawing all day (as I wanted my whole life) is that human backs are not designed to hold that position, so it is very common for artists and designers to have really stiff shoulder blades, creating a chain of muscle strain towards the arm AND the back… and a lot of pain.
These are some physical exercises for artists and honestly anyone who works at a desk.
