I haven't been able to take RID Bumblebee seriously since I realized he looks like he's wearing a crop top with black short shorts/underwear... like:

YOUR TUMMY IS SO EXPOSED YA HOE-

there should be a tax that youtubers pay where 1.5% of all of their revenue goes back to Kevin Macleod for basically supplying YouTube with it’s own soundtrack.

I will totally love a pic of the traditional drawing if you still have it (without the scan process) so we can see your sketch.

I'm totally willing to take this down and give my sincerest apologies if it isn't ai! There's so many people here who never tag ai art and then proceed to pass it off as their own.

Iirc doesn't ibspaint have like, a speed paint thingie pre-built into it's software? Or is that a different thing? May I see the speedpaint (I can msg u for it if that's better? I do know some people delete that though after export thou)

By the random hair strand (on the right) I mean it comes out of no where and doesn't connect with the rest of the hair (only comes out of frame)

By the ear I mean it looks like it's repeating onto itself, it's something you see a lot in AI art when it comes to small details like that. (if it's not ai that could just be the way you rendered it to make it look like that)

"using lots of gold" doesn't make sense to me in terms of this meaning it's not ai. It's not the fact it's gold but more so the gold parts on the shoulders which, seems to be the lapels on his commander suit, don't match with each other. Also the "broach" down the bottom has several parts that merge together in odd ways or suddenly cut itself off before it can connect with the rest of the design.

And me saying it doesn't look like a sketch is cuz you can see the highlights in the sketch layer (on the skin specifically) which wouldn't make sense if it was a traditional drawing. Unless you used a grey tonal paper or pre-shaded Cale's skin with a pencil then erased it. However it looks neigh identical to complete version, like... on the dot.

Again, I am totally willing to admit fault and say I jumped the gun.

@oliviacale asked:

Can you draw cale suffring from ill and fever coughing blood like when he was in chap257

Sure! I also like bloody and sick Cale. He looks so good covered in blood.🤭

•‘These crazy ancient powers! This crazy glass body! It’ll be so much better if I could just faint!’

He could not faint and his mind was clear. Being in pain while his mind was clear was driving him crazy.

His limbs were still shaking while his entire body was in pain because of his internal organs that were twisting. Cale hated this situation where he could not control himself.•

Writing an Identity Not Your Own: A Guide for Creative Writers

Alex Temblador

A practical guide to help authors authentically write and edit a character whose identity is different than their own. Do you have the tools to authentically write and edit a character whose identity is different than your own?

It's not a subject that's generally taught in creative writing programs, and there are so few craft books and online resources on the subject. Even if you can take a seminar, class, or workshop, there's nothing like having an easy-to-understand book on hand to provide guidance and insight every time you craft characters with historically marginalized identities. In Writing an Identity Not Your Own, award-winning author Alex Temblador discusses one of the most contentious topics in creative writing: crafting a character whose identity is historically marginalized.

What is "identity," and how do unconscious biases and bias blocks impact and influence what we write? What is intersectionality? You'll learn about identity terms, stereotypes, and tropes, and receive genre-specific advice related to various identities to consider when writing different races and ethnicities, sexual and romantic orientations, gender identities, disabilities, nationalities, and more. Through writing strategies, exercises, and literary excerpts, writers will gain a clearer understanding on how misrepresentations and harmful portrayals can appear in storylines, dialogue, and characterization. Alex will guide writers from the brainstorming phase through the editing process so they can gain a full understanding of the complexities of writing other identities and why it's important to get them right.

"Why do you hate found family" you guys will call characters who r literally coworkers siblings its stupid.

Yo dude, I don't like to say that art is AI due to knowing how damaging it can be… but that's clearly AI and it's not cool to act like you drew it yourself. Tag it as ai and don't act like it's something you drew yourself cuz it's not cool.

and in case anyone is weary (fair, never take anything at face value) here:

hair coming out of the right of the screen from nowhere, random wisps of hair, random gold parts inconsistencies and breaks in the brooch, weird ass ear, inconsistent shading with the eyes, blood not matching the mouth and looks like it's floating.

(also that is not a sketch, that's a filter that has been edited...)

Oh yeah I've noticed the uptick as well.

I can totally understand Aro ppls frustration about the lack of rep or always seeing people confuse us with Ace people, however that doesn't mean they should take it out on Ace/Acespec people!

I used to get upset sometimes over only seeing aroace or ace characters and started to think "man how come THEY get all of representation?" but once I thought for a sec I realized it was born of jealousy over literal crumbs of representation. (Ironic since I also consider myself as Acespec)

There's no need to fight other people if you want to see more representation, epically with others in our community! Ace people are already facing so much shit and being ostracized from other people in and outside the Queer community.

I have experienced it, other people have experienced it and it's very fucking real. So many people don't think that being Ace is a thing, and that goes for also being Aro, so why are you picking fights with others who share the same plight as you?!?

Hopefully this blows over soon, but to any other Acespec person reading this you belong here! Weather your AroAce or not there will always be a place for you here <3

can't say i love the aro community becoming increasingly hostile to aroaces, especially when a lot of us have already been alienated from the ace community for the exact same reason. i don't like the conflation of asexuality and aromanticism either, but some people seem to be getting reallll comfortable with casual acephobia. like. man just say you hate ace people, you're not special
