holy SHIT please read the whole thread and many more of these images right here, this artist put together an updated Opabinia reconstruction where every single one of these minute details (except coloration, obviously) are fully sourced making this most likely the first depiction factoring in 100% of current knowledge about it. Even I didn’t know it had little feet like a velvet worm and could have walked around on them! I never knew exactly how the trunk is oriented or how many “teeth” it is! I especially didn’t know the mouth was that weird! And I kind of assumed this since it’s a lobopod and all, but the whole animal was soft and squishy except for the eyes and the teeth. It did not have armor plates or a jointed exoskeleton like a lot of people portray. This also means all five of the eyes would have been able to bend and look around independently! The eye structure in fossils also indicates that they would have PSEUDOPUPILS! That’s the pupil-like dot in the eyes of insects like mantises!
They can have some joy and whimsy. As a treat.
“ITS NOT FAIR HOW DID PEWDIEPIE GET SO GOOD AT ART SO FAST IN JUST A YEAR WHEN IVE BEEN DRAWING LONGER THAN HIM AND MY ART LOOKS WORSE”
im gunna say this as gently as i can, in order to improve your art, you have to put actual effort into doing so aside from simply “drawing everyday.” Drawing every day is good advice and has lots of benefit, but unless you are engaging in constructive practices while you’re doing that daily drawing, your art WILL remain stagnant.
Engage in critique with your artist friends of a higher skill level on what you could improve on, watch videos about art and how to improve your art.
study artists you like and pick apart exactly what about their art is appealing to you personally and apply that to your work. Contrary to popular belief, art does actually require lots of effort to become good at.
Theres plenty of resources out there. USE THEM.
