For my mega I wanted to celebrate the arrival of October. The leaves are changing and will fill the air with the most wonderful scents and the air is cool and crisp. Grab a rich and warming bowl of stew or soup, a book or a craft, a warm blanket, and get cozy with me <3

The photo is one I recently took, not my best work but I wanted something original and on theme but not doxxing

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

You eventually get better but it takes foreverrr. Biggest beginner tip is if you can't paint eyes well paint them just black and not white, it'll look better at a distance. Once you feel up to it you can usually do decent eyes with a black > white (slightly smaller, acts as the main tone but keep a little black to outline it) > small dot of black (acts as the iris and pupil) > tiny dot of white (highlight, should be in a corner of the iris like when doing gems). If you want to add a colour do it before the second black step.

For general faces: paint them red first! Humans have lots of red bits under our skin, painting it red and then slowly building up to a flesh tone will make it appear much more natural in the end. If you're doing darker skin tones purple is also a surprisingly good colour to add in to your flesh tone mix for a similar reason.
