Constantly
lmao, never………. yikes
Once when I’m finished, 100% I f up.
Every time i finish some parts like hair/eyes/head/clothes/etc
I usually flip it after the rough sketch phase, after my clean sketch and then for lineart
None? I feel it really depends on what art style you’re going for. Majority of real life faces does not have symmetry and that’s what makes them beautiful.
Nah!! :] dont rlly do it
God I never do its so terryfing its my sleep paralys demon its going to floor me if I do flip it its terryfing and god Ive always feared the time where ill be forced to interact with it. The day comes closer every time and I feel like its going to paralyse me and pull me into its world all alone, Im scared Im scared Im scared Im
Not enough 0-0
Very often. I do it even when I'm drawing traditionally by taking a picture and flipping it. It helps with finding mistakes and keeping the drawing consistent ^^
All the time lol. Mainly to make it easier to draw the lines. 😅
Heh, never 😂
i forget i can do that 90% of the time ngl
hmm a lot when sketching but not much after that
Almost never, since I draw on paper and when I digitalize my stuff it's too late anyways
I flip it a lot during the sketching phase

Just to make sure that it doesn’t look TOO wonky but I don’t try to make it perfectly symmetrical !

Once I get to coloring/line art then flipping the canvas is not on my mind at all AHAH
I used to do it constantly but since I switched to traditional I only rarely look at a drawing in the mirror... honestly I feel so much better about my drawings now, who cares if they’re a little less quality, at least I don’t feel like shit 😃
Never bc I’m scared about it so I’ll suffer in silence. I’ll start doing eventually but right I’m too lazy and scary about it
