After Eight Years, I Finally Updated My Huge Historical Fashion Reference & Resources Doc! Now In The

after eight years, I finally updated my huge Historical Fashion Reference & Resources Doc! Now in the form of a MUCH more easily updated Google Doc with better organization, refreshed links, and five more pages of books and online resources.

I know tumblr hates links, but it’s worth it for a doc that I can now update with far more regularity going forward! RIP to the original, you did your duty for far longer than you should have. 😔🙏🏼

for all the artists out there, here are my favorite resources i use to learn!

I know my husband was most likely written off to die, but why didn't Shiro have any more friends?

Like, shit, I just look at this man and I just think he's a lonely fucker. I know he has team Voltron and his compatriots at the Galaxy Garrison, but like... he doesn't have friends outside of work?

What a sad life.

If I ever go into a diatribe on how Batman works, I'm sorry. I fell in love with the hero when I was a wee lass thanks to Kevin Conroy's acting, and I have been attached ever since.

I do believe it is hard writing for Batman if you don't know what you're doing. I've heard of a lot of stories where the writers didn't understand Batman, which is easier to do more than Superman.

Do not get me started on the butchering of Superman over the years. He has such a simple concept, yet people think he's a god-- I could go on forever.

Honestly the biggest issue with me writing YuGiOh fanfiction is the fact that I'm a character writer, and I don't see the Duel Monsters Card Game as a character.

Please, let me explain this.

If you are familiar with the YuGiOh franchise and have delved into it as far as I have, you would know that it initially started off with a love with games. The card game featured in one of the chapters got so popular that Kazuki Takahashi decided to try and make the game himself after some fans were interested in playing it.

Despite me not liking the game, or rather how it was implemented into the story, it's still an important factor to the show.

I see the game as a tool more than a character. I don't see any personality with the game, just a bunch of pieces of cardboard that are activated by a machine that then projects holograms. (I have a theory that Kaiba Corp made a special set of paint for Industrial Illusions to use in order for the machines to work with the cards. I don't know how else the machines would work, since they are cardboard.)

I see the game more as a tool to be used. And like with most tools in real life, you don't always need to use them. It could be because of all the rules to the game, since I can use the monsters associated with it as nightmares or spirits; hell, YuGiOh GX did that and it was honestly very interesting.

Is there anyone that's going through the same issues as I am? It honestly sucks, since I have this huge YuGiOh project in the early production stages.

I could never be a protagonist because I'd just never move the plot along. "You have free reign of this castle, but don't go into this one area" Okie dokie. I mind my own business and hang out in the library. Queen of staying in my own lane. I'll never discover your magic curse.
