DD,
Mortars are legal back in Tennessee so I'm sure my street is noisy too. But people are claiming this to be the biggest firework show in history so, I'm excited.

Versa, have fun! I can only imagine how awful the traffic is, I just heard the fireworks show start down here since unfortunately it's at the park near my very in-the-city house lol

Record highs today in certain parts of the US. It has been horrible

I guess we'll see. I'm currently perched with an excellent view of the memorial, waiting for the firework show. Getting absolutely poured on. We'll see how traffic is after

Bleh. Yeah, though, I can't wait to get back to my air conditioned hotel hidey hole. I feel the hiding part. LOL

I came home from a long night of work in Florida, fell into bed in my south-facing bedroom because I had been up almost 26 hours, woke up in trouble. My air conditioner had quit while I was comatose and I couldn't even stand up out of the bed. Took 2 liters of IV fluid to get my temp down from 104. Of course, I was born well before Armstrong landed on the moon, so...

I'm thankful to be really tolerant. But I think it's partially because of the obscene amounts of water I drink lol

Yeah, I gotta watch myself because I have bad heat tolerance and I'm on meds that make me more sensitive to the heat.

My uncle died at 21 running a marathon in NYC in over one hundred degree heat. He pushed himself too hard and ended up with heat stroke and full kidney failure before he passed away. Always hydrate and be careful of the heat

DD,
Dehydration is a huge reason for heat ailments. Combined with ignoring your body saying "hey, please stop" is when people faint

Versa, oh definitely, it's pretty commonplace to drop during the summer here, but unfortunately I suck at hydrating lol

DD,
I'm pretty heat resistant, I've never had troubles. But having grown up in Colorado, I know to properly hydrate and sit if I feel even a little off. I see too many people here pushing themselves a little too hard and then facing consequences

the thunder was pretty loud so the cats were hiding. Storm finally calmed down, so they're getting tasty cat food

I am super curious how others do their smudging (or lack of)
I'm trying to find a few things to add to my style


Any help is greatly appreciated

Before smudging, I sharpen my horse so it will be easier to keep details, highlights, and shadows.
I then smudge on a soft brush at 20% strength. I always start on the shoulder of the horse and work back. I then go in with a smaller brush on the same strength (sometimes slightly lower strength) to smudge the legs and face.
After smudging, I usually either resharpen or go in and draw on shadows and highlights.

I adapted mine from a bunch of tutorials

I basically smudge my body all over with a 9% soft brush on a seperate layer so I have control over it. I just smudge it all until it's all blended together. Then I lower the opacity of the smudging layer so it looks kinda smudged but not too much. Then I remove any noise on the main layer, and do the highlighting and shading thing in the tutorial.

First I usually reduce noise, and then I duplicate my horse layer and clip my new layer to my old one. This keeps the edges clean. I smudge the top layer with an 8% soft round brush, making sure not to blur out any of the details now I wish to keep, such as fine facial features, muscles, or any other defining features.

The end. :)
