a non-selective plan for the resurgence of fic commissions

I decided to just yeet them all here in one post First are the flats/general colors, and next are detailed and more”accurate”(specifically Mable) When I get the chance, I might do something with them

[squibblestherambler]

Surprise, I finished Bill faster that I though, so I’ll post him now I’m gonna go through all of them again and add some lighting details, and post them all together (plain flat colors first post, and second post with the details)

Paz is done! Next up, Billy-boi!

I love anatomy, especially to study it and even invent it. Working with the eyes of the Illuminati, I noticed one interesting thing...

Люблю анатомию, особенно изучать её и даже придумывать. Работая с глазами Иллюминатов я заметила одну интересную вещь...

People have a lot of details on their faces, which makes it easier for us to convey our feelings. But the Illuminati have only one eye and one eyebrow on their face. Some people draw bill's mouth on purpose to make it easier to convey his condition. But I want to tell you that different emotions can be easily conveyed even with just one eye and one eyebrow.

У людей много деталей на лице, это нам и помогает легче передавать наши чувства. А вот у Иллюминатов на лице всего лишь один глаз и одна бровь. Некоторые люди специально рисуют Биллу рот, чтобы легче было передать его состояние. Но хочу рассказать вам, что различные эмоции можно легко передать даже имея всего один глаз и одну бровь.

For starters, try drawing Bill with an evil smile. NOT CUNNING, BUT EVIL! You need Bill to smile maliciously, as if he's looking at Pines and thinking about His brutal punishment. Is it working? If you draw it like this,

Для начала, попробуйте нарисовать Билла со злой улыбкой. НЕ ХИТРОЙ, А ЗЛОЙ! Нужно, чтобы Билл злобно улыбался, будто он смотрит на Паинса и думает о его жестокой расправе. Получается? Если вы нарисовали вот так

you get a sad, offended Cipher.

то у вас получился грустный, обижанный Сайфер.

Now take a look at this image:

Теперь взгляните на это изображение:

There's more anger here, right?

Здесь уже больше злости, верно?

Let's calculate which areas of the face in a person's facial expressions are the most basic: the eyebrows, upper eyelid of the eye, lower eyelid of the eye, upper lip, lower lip and the tips of the lips. A total of six.

Давайте подсчитаем, какие участки лица у человека в мимике самые основные: брови, вегхнее веко глаза, нижнее веко глаза, верхняя губа, нижняя губа и кончики губ. Всего шесть.

An important role is played by the tips of the eye - tear meat. They create the desired effect.

Большую роль играют кончики глаза - слезные мясца. Они то и создают нужный нам эффект.

Let's take it in order...

Разберём всё по порядку...

It is difficult to imagine how you can draw full-fledged facial expressions from the Illuminati without having lips. But I want to remind you that the lips are part of the oral cavity. In episode 20 of the second season of Gravity Falls, we watched Bill drink through his eye. We can conclude that The Illuminati's eyelids play the same role as our lips.

Сложно представить то, как можно рисовать полноценные выражения лиц у Иллюминатов не имея при этом губ. Но хочу напомнить, что губы это часть ротовой полости. В 20 серии второго сезона Гравити Фоллз мы наблюдали то, как Билл пьёт через свой глаз. Можно сделать вывод, что веки Иллюминатов играют ту же роль, что и наши губы.

Now let's make an approximate diagram of sections that perform the same functions:

Теперь сделаем приблизительную схему участков выполняющих одинаковые функции:

You can start improvising by combining different emotions:

Можно начать импровизировать, совмещая разные эмоции:

I want to note that I mentioned that the lips have a role in facial expressions, but did not show it (they are marked with yellow and blue colors). Some things may not match people. The following facial expressions have no analogues with humans:

Хочу заметить, что я упомянула про то, что губы имеют роль в мимике лица, но не показала это (они обозначены жёлтым и синим цветами). Некоторые вещи могут не соответствовать людям. Следующим выражениям лиц не имеют аналогов с людьми:

Archive.org(not AO3) is facing a lawsuit

tldr: the Internet Archive/WayBack Machine is super important in term of archived content, billions of stuff are on there, and with the current event happening in the world like stated above,without this tool, it will be hard to properly document what took place. It will be easy for certain people to rewrite history. Dont let them.

DONATE HERE (post dont get much exposure with working links sorry)

 archive.org/donate/

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

IF YOU CANT DONATE THEN PLEASE SPREAD THE INFO

On twitter,tumblr,facebook,heck,anywhere you want,this needs to be talked about !

EDIT:  I failed to remember that not everything is black and white so @rimanez brought up interesting points :

Also as a side note a lot of people are thinking Archive Of Our Own (ao3) is getting sued. Its not the case,its a whole different website. Please rb this version instead

Finished the twins! I wanna finish Paz and Bill so I can post them all together (Thinkin’ of maybe also doing a small comic with them of this au concept? Just a though, lemme know what y’all think)

[squibblestherambler]

There is a specific and terrifying difference between “never were” monsters and “are not anymore” monsters

“The thing that was not a deer” implies a creature which mimics a deer but imperfectly and the details which are wrong are what makes it terrifying

“The thing that was not a deer anymore” on the other hand implies a thing that USED to be a deer before it was somehow mutated, possessed, parasitically controlled or reanimated improperly and what makes THAT terrifying is the details that are still right and recognizable poking out of all the wrong and horrible malformations.

It’s been a while, huh?

Wanted to sketch, and I decided to use an old, barely started, and never started fic/au idea

Low key angst fic, but that’s neither here nor there

Anywhoops

I’ve noticed my fanart drawings tend to be more fluid and dynamic

Might be because they’re for fun and not for a final end game thing

Might line and color these babies

Might make mini comic strips with them

Who knows but future us...

Lemme know what else y’all wanna see!

P.S.:

I know I misspelled Mabel

[squibblestherambler]

What do you guys wanna see next? (your girl is running low on ideas)

I wanna get a feel as to what to post next here (or what you guys would want more of)

I’ll continue with the Monster Falls AU Reference sheets (which, still need to choose who to do next, so don’t hesitate to send ideas), so more fan drawings

I could post some references and doodles I have from a DnD campaign I’m in

Or some of my random and original art, with some story ideas sprinkled amongst them

Kinda just wanna know what you guys wanna see more of :\

Let me tell you about my panda mini-washer

As an apartment dweller, this is a game changer. My current apartment doesn’t have a laundry facility and the closest Laundromat about a 30 min bus ride which is just not practical. The mini-washer is a life saver

The panda mini washer hooks up to the sink, is incredibly lightweight (about 28 pounds, so light even I can lift it) and easy to use. 

It has a surprisingly large capacity. The basket from the first picture represents about one and a half loads. The jeans took up a whole load while the rest filled the bin only half way. 

Here’s the inside. The left is the washer the right is the spin dryer. Yes, it even drys.

Basically you shove your cloths into the washer, fill it up with water and let it go. I use my shower head to fill it up so it goes faster, the sink hook up took about five minutes to fill the whole tub, with the shower head is is down to a minute an a half. I do it in three wash cycles, a five minute rinse with baking soda, a five minute wash with soap and a three minute rinse with water. You have to drain and refill between each cycle so it’s a little more labor intensive than a traditional washer. 

That’s the spin dryer. It’s about half the capacity of the washer so one wash takes about two loads to dry. The spinner is much more effective than I was expecting. A three minute spin gets my cloths about 90% dry. I hang them up to air dry for that last 10%. 

The machine cost me about 150$. When you factor in two dollars for the bus, five for the machines (per week), the mini-washer pays for its self after only about six months worth of laundry. 

I’m not great at expressing emotion, but I’m hoping you can tell how excited I am.  Let me just say that the panda mini-washer is great and I highly recommend it to anyone currently using a Laundromat.

I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:

IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.

1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.

2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.

3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”

4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”

5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.

TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.

Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.

We’re only finding out recently that a lot of animals have colors and patterns that we cannot see because they’re outside of our visual range. It calls to attention how much of the world we can’t experience because our senses are limited. When we shine UV lights on them, they glow pink or blue, but these are the colors that we CAN see…. they could be a bunch of different colors, which we SEE as all pink. It’s also interesting to consider that most of these animals are not aware of having glowing patches on their bodies…. isn’t it also possible that we have skin or hair patterns that were not aware of? . . (There is actually some research out there to support the idea that our own skin fluoresces as well and that there are gender differences in the pattern and glow.)
