Hot Artists Don't Gatekeep

hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Hey, Since Crunchyroll Has Removed Utena From Its Catalog Just In Time For Pride Month, Here's Your Reminder

Hey, since Crunchyroll has removed Utena from its catalog just in time for Pride month, here's your reminder that the whole series is free to watch on Youtube! (Thanks to Nozomi Entertainment for being good about keeping up their official hosting.)

Revolutionary Girl Utena (Sub) and (Dub)

Now's a great time to watch a classic queer anime that's shaped the entire genre!

Some warnings below the cut, because it's also tragic and you might not want to go in unaware... It's so worth it though!

Warnings for: assault/abuse, domestic partner violence, sexual assault, homophobia, rape, incest, grooming, pedophilia, suicide, unreality, impalement

If any of these would be a major problem for you, I'd recommend looking up a more specific spoiler/trigger list. Utena is a great show, and is very much bringing all of it up to show how horrible and damaging it can be, but also, it can be a lot for that same reason. :)

Text: How I draw fat people, by a fat person.
Text: BEFORE I SAY ANYTHING! Fat people have many shapes and sizes, all of these tips can exist in different variations and ratios of fat distribution. This is not a comprehensive guide of how to draw fat people, These are just things I like to keep in mind. Study references of real people and pay attention to how fat behaves. Also find more anatomy-based studies of fat! This is more of a cartoon slash illustration based study. I recommend Morpho: Fat and Folds.
Text: Fat distribution rough approximation. Cheeks, Chin, neck, chest, underarms, waist, hips, thighs, calves, crotch, butt, scapula, hips. Mostly bone, Mostly fat.
Text: Fat sags from bones / muscle.
Text: Back rolls: Shoulders, waist top, body bend, waist bottom, hips. Stomach fold ends at hip dip. Torso, Waist, Hip, Thigh.
Text: Fold at bottom of skull. Body rolls act kind of like thick fabric when twisted.
Text: Fat hangs from arms. Armpit fold connects to chest fold.
Text: Neck fold. Double chin. Neck starts closer to front of the chin. Armpit fold.
Text: Some people have ab folds. Tapers into middle. Some people have rib folds.
Text: Cheeks! Cheek bulges at top. Corner of mouth pushes cheek up. Skin stretches.

hey these are some tips for some of the little details in drawing fat folks that some people might not know!

everyone has fat on their bodies so its a worthwhile skill to have, but most art tutorials leave it out. heres some other good tips from artists!!

if you’re white and wanna write a poc character and feel awkward about it i implore you to ignore any twitblr stuff treating it as a massive ethical burden and instead come in more with the same mindset you’d have if you wanted to write about idk firefighters but didn’t know anything about firefighters so you do... research. Like fuck off with the weird kinda creepy calls for spiritual introspection you’re not writing about god damn space aliens you’re writing about humans and if you think you need more perspective of different life experiences just read?
