タイムライン上では普段通りでいよう

去年の緊急事態宣言の期間中、どういうツイートをするか、どういうツイートをしないか、みんないろいろ考えたと思うんですよ。自分もコロナ関連の絵のネタしか出なくなって、それってどうかとか考えて普段通りのネタを描こう描こうとしたり。ほんで2度目の緊急事態宣言となったわけなんだけど、なんか「タイムライン上では普段通りでいなきゃいけない」みたいな縛りを自分で勝手に作っちゃうのも危険は危険だよなっていう。
そういう絵。もっと綱渡りみたいな感じにできるとよかったんだけど、あんまり細くしちゃうとタイムライン感がわかりづらくなっちゃうので、このへんが落としどころかなーって感じです。

わかったような事言っておいて、この状況下で趣味絵描きとしてどう立ち回るか、俺も未だ正解を出せてるわけではないんだけどね。俺が普段通りに絵ー描いても、周りが普段通りに楽しめる状況じゃないんなら、このタイミングで出すのもったいなくないか？とか、自分が周りの事わかってるわけでもないのにいろいろ考えます。その「普段通り」だって無意識のうちに歪んでるのかもしれないし、もう何もわからんよ。あんま考えないでいい絵描こう。それだけ意識しようぜ。

■やってみたシリーズ
今回はアニメ塗りだったんですけど、ちょっと情報量増やしたくて、試しに影にフチつけてみたんですよ。

個人的にはちょっといい感じでした。多用はしないと思うけど今後も機会あったら試したいですね。

Keep it business as usual on the timeline

From blog post:

During last year's declared state of emergency, I think everyone thought about what kinds of tweets they should or shouldn't make. I too ended up only being able to come up with ideas for Corona-related drawings, but I felt unsure about that so I pushed myself to come up with ideas as usual. And now here we are at the second state of emergency declaration, and everyone is imposing this restriction of "I have to keep things as usual on the timeline" on themselves, which I also think has its own dangers. So that's the drawing. I wish it would have come across as more of a tightrope walk, but making the timeline too narrow would've made it hard to figure out what it was, so that ended up being a kind of point of compromise.

I may sound as though I understand everything, but as for how a hobby artist is supposed to act under these circumstances, I don't have an answer yet either. "I can draw something as usual, but the world around me can't enjoy it as usual, so isn't it a waste to put it out right now?" is are the sort of thing I think about since I don't really understand what's going on around me. Even what that "normal" is might be distorted in our subconscious, so I really have no idea what's what anymore. Don't think too much, draw good art. Let's just focus on that.

■ "Things I wanted to do" series
This time I used anime coloring, wanted to increase the amount of information a bit, and as a test I added outlines to the shading.

Personally, I think it turned out kind of nice. I don't think I'll use this very often, but if I get more chances from now on, it'll be something to try, right?
