Well, I can’t say that it looks good. But it’s good enough for me.
I guess that’s it for now. I’ll post another if some serious progress happened.

You’re welcome. Looking forward to seeing more art from you!
Got it working.
I got ponyscape and didn’t find PowerStroke, so I just set the language from german to english and then I saw it :) Thanks for the tip.
Indeed, I’ve been searching for the powerstroke effect everywhere for a long time. People said I should get the newest dev version, but even there it’s nowhere to be found. I might give ponyscape a shot tho!
Have you tried experimenting with the PowerStroke path effect? It allows you to have variable line width without having to convert paths to shapes.

The tutorial video is for Ponyscape, but it should work in vanilla Inkscape too.
Many thanks :) That was the idea behind it, learning by doing but with a schedule.

I used gimp to draw the lines (which looks crappy, because mouse), and then used inkscape to “redraw” them. After that I exported the lines from inkscape back into GIMP and colored the whole thing.
Upsides:
Downsides:
I’d rather recommend using a tablet and perfecting your lines, just to have it look more natural. You can get a drawing dynamic effect by converting the paths into shapes in inkscape, but I did not manage to make it look good yet. I wish I had my tablet pen right now…
I second that :)
Basically, all you do is get yourself a wall calendar or something, and draw a chain linking each day you drew something to the next. Your goal is never to leave any gaps in the chain. It’s a small thing, but having that visual representation of everything you’ve done so far can be really powerful for helping yourself keep working. Just keep telling yourself, “don’t break the chain!”
It doesn’t have to be a calendar, either. I’m making an actual paper chain for mine, with what I drew that day written on each link that I add. Whatever works for you.
Here’s to self-improvement!
