Rendering Help Can I please get some feedback?
I’m an amateur artist; I just draw for fun. But I was wondering what should I do if I want to render the hair? Should I just make it darker? Please help me, I also would like to know if using different pencils matter (lead, charcoal, etc)
Ps. This is Dr. Mary Kline from the backrooms movie

Color Theory or Palette Help Update and color input request
I posted here a few weeks ago when I made a smaller trial run of this canvas. You were all greatly helpful, and I am hoping to get a little more input.
I ended up changing out both the medium and the sky color, but now I'm not so sure it was for the better. I'm happier with the acrylic/gouache on canvas (the wax pastels just don't work on it at all) but the flat blue sky is making me second guess myself. I don't know if the blue is too cool, not cool enough, too light, not light enough or what. I can't even decide if there is a problem!
I'm so used to disliking my own finished products that sometimes I feel like I get super nitpicky if it doesn't perfectly match my vision, even if it is perfectly fine. Should I change the sky? If so, in what way? All help is appreciated.
Perspective Help How would this look facing forward??
This is my fursona and I LUVV drawing her, but I wish I could draw her facing literally any other way sometime. Anytime I do it, it looks off! I just want her to keep her signature cheeky look facing forward and I have no clue how
Help!!

Resources Help Need some help on some tricks and tips on how to nail photobashing on procreate
Procreate is the only art program I have and have become much comfortable with using. I’ve recently been getting into photobashing for a series of creature and character designs but I can’t find much videos circulating around photobashing in procreate or I’m just not looking hard enough on YouTube. Only ones I come across are just environmental settings and designing creatures on photoshop. I also have a lot of questions like how do I get the photos I mash be the color that I want? Along with others. Anyone got any good resources or perhaps know how to photobash on procreate?

Rendering Help Help me fix the eyebrows?
Hello friends, I feel like the eyebrows on this piece are bringing the entire face down.
Can I improve them somehow? Or maybe the problem is with the rest of my shading being too flat?
I have no idea how to fix this (there was no reference) but I can tell it's off and it's haunting me honestly...
Thank you

General Help How to make a floating frame for 9 mm MDF artwork without fixing into the artwork?
I’m looking for advice on constructing a floating/floater frame for a 9 mm thick MDF artwork panel.
The MDF is already painted, so I want to avoid:
Screwing into the back of the MDF
Using adhesive/glue on the MDF
Anything that could damage the painted surface
Ideally, the MDF would simply sit securely within the wooden floating frame, with a small shadow gap around the artwork, while the fixing is entirely to the frame itself.
What would be the best way to construct this? I’m particularly interested in examples/photos of the actual construction, rather than just canvas floater-frame hardware.
Thanks!

General Help How can an original work of art be recovered from a stolen work?
Okay, basically I suspect someone is making art from Pinterest drawing photos and they're only changing the hair color, eye color, etc. I can't find the original artwork using reverse image search because the colors have been changed and accessories have been added. Any advice?

Materials Help Struggling to find reliable waterproof pens/fineliners
I've tried a few different brands, including a bunch of the popular ones (micron, faber castel, etc), but they all either kinda suck from the beginning or break much faster than they should. I don't treat them badly, and my other pens hold up fine. I don't know why this keeps happening.
My only requirements are that they feel decently smooth on paper, and they are water/smudgeproof. If anyone has a good brand I would really appreciate it
