As you guys might have noticed, I recently figured out that when I commission people I can bribe them into also making a speedpaint of their pic for me! And when they don't have a channel of their own to upload the resulting video to I've been uploading it to mine (With permission of course)

Ive been seeing this as a win win situation, I get easy access to the video in the same place where I watch all other speedpaints, and the person gets some free exposure, but I neglected to ask yall on if you feel the same way. so its poll time!

Should I keep sharing commissions done for me on my channel or just keep them to myself?

Commissions are open, 4 slots available.

Its $50 for a full body, +$25 for additional characters and for a detailed background.

Speedpaint is included in the cost, you can request what music plays in the video.

Contact me at AriaxHope@gmail.com for inquires.

Ok I've finally got a video recorded for you guys! It's been almost a year since I've posted but I'm finally back! (Hopefully!)

So heres the question, the video is currently at x50 speed and is about 36 minutes long.

The drawing is of 4 pictures all containing the same character.

Should I post the 36 minute speedpaint or should I split it into parts?

Im thinking of getting an ipad pro and an apple pencil as I've heard great reviews over its usage as an art tablet!

Are there any good screen recording apps for the ipad? My searches have mostly lead me to forums of ipad users complaining about the built in recording software not working, having a time limit, and stopping at unpredictable times,

So if there's anything that can reliably record for long periods of time i would love to hear about it!

I really don't have much faith in apple products and my only reason to get this is for drawing, so Im probably not going to get one if there's not an easy way to make speedpaints hahaha



Quick side note: sorry about the lack of videos as of late! Its a tad difficult to focus on art when it seems like the world is falling apart ngl

But I've been trying out 3d modeling with blender lately so you may start seeing timelapses of me fumbling around the interface trying to make a singular anime cat for 50 hours straight someday.

Anyways thank you in advance for any input given in regards to the ipad pro recording stuff, its very appreciated :D

ok, so I uploaded the video last night, but apparently the songs I used were way too copyrighted and it was blocked from being viewed (thankfully I didn't get a copyright strike) but now I need to use different non copyright music and render it again, :/


I'll be doing my own search but if you have any free stuff that you think would fit this 40 minute video shoot it my way and I'll check it out.


(Chances are this is gonna get filled with homestuck music rip)

And now we wait...
Selecting music was actually easier than usual this time round! You guys can expect the next video to be up within a couple hours!

At 33 and 1/2 hours of work time, we have all of the footage needed for the next speedpaint! Sped up by 50x speeds, the video lays at a 40 minute run time, it may take some time to get the music I need for this! If you want, feel free to suggest some songs you'd like me to put into it! I can't promise that I'll add them, I'm stupidly picky about speedpaint songs lmao.


The speedpaint is a screenshot redraw of Balder from Bayonetta 2! The image attached to this post is the screenshot, I'm saving the finished redraw until the video goes up :3


Thank you for your patience and support! It truly means a lot to me! Ok! Aria out! <3

TDLR: I've got a stupid long video in the works, how should I deal with it?


Hey ya'll! I've got a new speedpaint coming up, a screenshot redraw of Balder from Bayonetta 2! I planned on this being just a quick drawing, something to be somewhat of a break from my other projects, and yet, here I am with 16 hours of footage and still not done with the drawing...


So! Here's my question to you! Should I:


[1] Keep the footage as is, and only speed it up + add music


[2] Cut out me cleaning up lineart and flat colors (these things don't really affect the finished image much, its often just me organising layers)


[3] Cut out both the cleanup process and the placing down flat colors part


[4] Just speed the video up to negate the length of the footage (even though at my usual speed x45 its still over 20 minutes long, and to speed it up to bring it back down to reasonable view time it would be likely too fast to really comprehend)


[5] Keep footage as is but split the video into two parts, one with the sketching, lineart, and flat colors, with the other having all the shading and rendering stuff. (I've never been much a fan of multi part speedpaints but I will do what I have to lol)


[6] Suggest you own idea below! This poll is likely going to influence how I handle extremely long videos in the future, so its important to me to hear what you guys would like!

Sorry about the lack of updates, I've been pretty busy lately with IRL stuff ^^|| I'm getting a bit more into the swing of things so I'll try to get back on schedule upload wise!


Here's a quick question for ya'll, I'm in the process of making a new endcard for- well- the end of my videos!


I've been using the Wii Shop Channel theme as the music for these, but as I'm remaking it I'm wondering if I should change it up! Let me know what you think!
