Crap, I'm down bad for this roleswap scrap au, I'm doing fanart and he angee when mask breaks mid battle to simulate the shift in the beast dedede fight, but i can't do angry angled faces for SHIT- Sorry for cussing, I am trying to do this face and it makes me so annoyed that i can't do it in a way that I like it-! thank you for bringing this to my life you are a freaking queen/king/lord(depends on gender as lord is gender neutral), and i freaking love your art hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-!

Hahaha oh my goodness! It's an honor to have inspired you! I'm excited to see your take on the story!

It's okay and totally normal to be frustrated but try not to direct that at yourself! Easier said than done I know, but don't give up! Sometimes it takes me a whole page of drawings or dozens of revisions to get the facial expression I want. Here's a few ways I've personally approached it:

I posted this a while back but these excerpts from "Making Comics" by Scott McCloud really help me with facial expression exercises! Combining different emotions to convey someone's thoughts is really fun! And reference everything you can too- If there's a cool clip of a fight scene you really like, try drawing those characters' expressions!

And if all else fails, sometimes I find myself making the face that I'm trying to draw so I keep a mirror at my art desk to reference my eyebrows and mouth positions and stuff hahaha! It gets to the point that when I'm drawing a character that's upset or crying I'll sometimes start accidentally tearing up with them. It's an awkward conversation to have when my coworkers walk in on me during my lunch break and get concerned, and I have to be like "No sorry, I'm just feeling this fictional penguin drawing's emotions with him."

But yes!! I am not a professional, but I am a big advocate for having fun when telling stories. Enjoy and create the story that only you can tell because you are unique and great!!

#ask #swearing #roleswap scraps #shuuuucks thanks for the compliments!#you know what I kinda liked being called all three of those titles they just all made me smile hehee #she/her is what I've been going with but now this website is making me contemplate they/them as well- at least on the internet hehe #I appreciate it!! :D

been chatting with a friend who's playing through PN2 again and i want it to be known i will not hear anyone say a WORD about Hollis giving Raz a hard time at the beginning of the game. if anything she is OUTSTANDINGLY accommodating to this random ten-year-old who wandered in unattended off the plane in the middle of an extremely tense situation

#psychonauts #psychonauts 2 #like come on look at it from her perspective. she's stressed and overworked #her boss (who she's covering for) has just been brought in practically comatose #and she's just been informed there might be a mole in their spy organisation. which is kind of a big deal #and then this kid shows up out of nowhere like 'hi! i'm your new agent!! :D'#honestly she has every right to tell him to take a hike lol #but she doesn't! she sees his enthusiasm and commitment and decides to hear him out and get him a place in the intern program #even at her worst and most stressed she's someone who wants to /nurture/ that enthusiasm and that talent #and i think that's really important to understanding her character #she's great. she's a great person and a great teacher and everyone should appreciate her. the psychonauts don't deserve her

was rewatching fabian’s baron moment on account of it being the most delicious piece of pvp in my recent memory and ally beardsley’s growth as a player just shone through so brightly and with such clarity. after dusting off their shock they immediately asked about the nemesis ward, had enough knowledge about fellow pcs stocked to remember adaine’s ac with such like frustrated confidence and certainty, suggested to siobhan to dimension door out of adaine’s room, like. they came into this making a character with 4 dex. and now the dice deity offered to roll a check to sense if adaine was in danger. making decisions, asking questions, getting invested in the story, trying so hard with the tools they have to save characters from danger; ally beardsley is an incredible d&d player.
