Well, ... thank you ! Glad you like it :)

I did. Sorry for the terrible scan, I'm still struggling to get a clean result with watercolor though. but thanks ! :)

thank you :)

not sure what you mean, but I find that Dells are also cheap (second hand) easy to find, reliable, solid and easy to maintain (like the hardware is easy to access for cleaning and replacing/updating).

edit : I'm using a latitude 5470 with lubuntu. I bought it second in a pawn shop a few years ago and added some RAM last year, it still runs like a charm.

for a lot of people (me included), a cheap second hand thinkpad (or dell pro) with a light distro would be more than enough to cover their computing needs for years.

it is not such a stretch. according to Oxford dictionary, to throw is :

1.propel (something) with force through the air by a movement of the arm and hand.

which is a very human concept. We then can not judge other species ability to do it (exept primates). just like we can not say animals don't have languages because thay don't speak english.

2.send suddenly into a particular state or condition.

The archer fish is then very efficient at sending water into a particular state or condition with high accuracy.

the octopus for exemple has been observed throwing stuff around.

edit : elephants do it to. and you can find plenty of bird examples.

do not copy paste commands you do not uderstand from shady forums in hope it will solve your problem :)

the archerfish can accurately spit jets of water to hunt inscects ... I'm sure there are much more examples of other species accurately throwing things around. we're not that special ...

A deep pen with a good nib makes nice clean lines. It's a terrible "scan" of the actual drawing. I did it with my terrible phone and cleaned it up a bit with curves and sharpening filter. that might be that as well x) haha

I did not finish drawabox nor did I exactly follow the exercises, but I certainly got better line work and spacial vision through the drills !

thanks ! this is india ink on paper (not digital) with a first construction step with graphite (that has been erased).

if you're intrested. I'm currently studying this. and draw a box has been really helpful to me as well.

night shifts would be harmful anyhow (edit : it fucks up your sleep cycle as well as your social life)

that what I thought. Well, people get easily offended for no reasons, better be safe I guess 🤷‍♂️
