Note: Since my old masterlist is getting notes again (and I'm hosting @tbb-appreciation-week this year), I thought it's a good time to release a new version with a lot more resources. If any of you know another site or thing that it's missing from the list, let me know and I'll include it!! [Altho, I'm getting this close 🤏 to the hyperlinks limit on this thing 😆]
Note 2: To avoid tagging the 3 people from whom I got multiple resources repeatedly, I've placed 1-3 asterisks between square brackets after the links, depending on the OP. I give the respective credit to them in a legend at the end of the post.

HELPFUL BLOGS & SITES
The amazing @fox-trot, who not only makes astonishing art and write an amazing fic, she also responds to medical questions and gives all kinds of references for writing medic characters. Check her #medicposting tag and you'll find tons of information. Also check #star wars reference and her art tag while you're at it.
@writebetterstarwars, which seems to be inactive, but there are a bunch of references there.
@howtofightwrite The place to find out how to write a good fight scene.
@scriptmedic no longer active, but it has a great deal of useful information.
@scripttorture for your whump needs. Major trigger warning for all its content.
@sw-anthrobiology A blog dedicated to collecting headcanons about the biology and cultures of Star Wars species.
@archeo-starwars In-universe sources on culture and history.
@clonewarsarchives Resources & Concept Art Blog for The Clone Wars animated series.
Wookiepedia If you don't find something in here, it's probably because it doesn't exist, neither as a canon nor legends reference.

WRITING IN GENERAL (For those who don't want to die like Stormtroopers)
SlickWrite: Completely free; online. Checks grammar, punctuation, flow, and writing style according to different settings (including fiction writing).
ProWritingAid: [RECOMMENDED] One of the most thorough online proofreader I've ever used. Although when using a free account gives extremely thorough feedback, with +20 different in-depth reports, for only the first 500 words. However, you can earn a premium account license (for a year or for life) if you get 10 or 20 new users signing up for free; (if you wouldn't mind doing so using the link above and help me earn mine, please). The settings allow you to check your writing according to your needs, from general to formal to creative. It has a bonus that you can check depending on the genre you're writing. For example, in creative, you can choose romance or sci-fiction (there are 14 sub-genre in total). And just like google docs, you can share a document, and people can view, comment or edit it too.
LanguageTool: [RECOMMENDED] Another excellent proofreader. It also has a word limit in free accounts, but if you use the add-on for Google Docs, it counts each page as a new document, so hitting the word limit is nearly impossible. It helps you to rewrite a sentence (3 a day), even if it doesn't raise any flags; it's very useful for when your sentence is grammatically correct, but it doesn't feel quite right.
Grammarly, Hemingway Editor: No so great, but they do the basic job.

I think this is my favourite Minecraft skin ever. One of the Beatles members. Like, whoever made this can't even tell them apart, but was still inspired enough to bother making a Minecraft skin and uploading it for anyone to use. No, it's not just any guy in a suit; it's clearly a Beatle. So specific, yet so vague. Love it.
I actually can’t remember how many times he was seen actually writing an article…
@spinjitsuburst
I have come to debate.
Okay yes, Kai as the team medic would make sense. Not only does he have medical knowledge, she is protective of her teammates and he probably learned how to use medical supplies because he was a blacksmith.
But what about Zane and Pixal?
I seriously doubt Kai has enough knowledge on tech to be able to repair the two of them (especially Zane, because they die too much)
So I propose either Jay as the medic for the whole team, or he and Kai work together. Jay, like Kai, grew up learning how to make things and needed to learn how to use medicine and medical supplies. Plus Jay is a mechanic, which solves the Zane and Pixal problem.
(He/she for Kai, they/them for Zane and he/they for Jay, sorry about the confusion and how I worded it)
Exactly! Like there are different hair styles and textures that apply to different types of people, whether that be because of race or because of culture.
It's good to get feedback to update your art, but researching is good too, especially for things like this that may not seem important, but that it is actually really important!
I'll give you two example drawings from me (please note these were drawn at different times so the styles are sort of different)
Now, let me start by saying that I am white, and I had to do some research. So please correct me if I get anything wrong or sound racist!
With the bottom image, I based my sources off the picrew used in the drawing. But I also had shown this piece to one of my mom's friends, who is a black woman. She even picked the name!
It's good to look up photos and drawings for reference if you need help with drawing someone of another race or culture, especially if you plan on showing that piece to others. Personally, I used a video by an artist named Thumin (hopefully I spelled her name right), who, as a black woman, gave a tutorial on coloring skin and coloring hair.
But it's also a good idea to check with friends, family or anyone you may know online about extra information, as some sources hold stereotypes for black people as well as other people who aren't white.
With the top image, I spent a LONG time looking up tutorials for how to draw dreadlocks, as that's something I don't draw very often. There were even times I straight up went into ibis paint and looked up if anyone had made a brush for dreadlocks. They had, but they were either too realistic or didn't fit with my style.
The best thing I could do was practice, and while I may mess up from time to time, I'll be fine if I realize how to learn from my mistake.
Hopefully this helped anyone who needed it.
It always bothers me when someone says they hc a character (for example, Cole) as black but then don't adjust the hair at all to fit that headcanon? Like as someone said on a different post, with a similar topic once, it just feels like you're drawing a white person but coloring them as a black person...
