Do you usually make esqueletons for you sculptures? I'm struggling to make poses that look fluid when I make the little wire structure, but if I don't, the thing is not firm enough and kinda goes sideways and also cracks a bit more than usual

Man, I wish I could. Kiln fired clay shrinks significantly as it's dried and fired--the temmstone speckle clay I'm using has a shrinkage of 12.5%. You can get high-temp nichrome wire that will survive the heat of the kiln, but the problem is that if you have clay shrinking around an internal armature that does not shrink, you wind up with cracks and breakage.

You can, sometimes, get away with small bits of wire, but generally I just don't risk it. My sculptures are just solid clay. Or, actually, sometimes I hollow them out so they're not actually solid, but no wire or anything.

If you're feeling like your pose is not dynamic enough, rotate it. As you build your armature, make sure it is engaging space from every side. If you pose is just stretching all its limbs forward and back, with no engagement on the left or right, then you may have an issue. Similarly, if they're standing normally, you may want to consider adding a twist to their torso/hips, a bend to a leg or arm, so they're engaging space more interestingly. When you're working in three dimensions you want it to be interesting no matter what angle you're looking at it from. So rotate your armature, and if it looks flat from any angle, adjust it.

If you are doing poses in motion, look for single lines that extend all the way through your figure that help convey the movement. Theseus, for example, has lines that go all the way from his back leg to his front shoulder, in order to help express that he's pulling hard. That will also help your figures feel like they have weight and they're actually balancing.

just a reminder it's canon that Dean took Castiel to Hot Topic to pick out a grumpy cat plushie for Claire's birthday.

For those who played Paper Mario 64 will understand the second picture. SpongeBob meme I know- When I was playing and heard the name Kolorado I was like xD Mario knows him and didn’t bother to say anything just stares at you.

anyone ever think about how the tdp fanbase literally created some of the most prominent plot points and parallels in the whole show? (maybe not actually but def heavily contributed)

the creators were like “we didn’t even consider rayllum until the fans started shipping them” and they just fucking RAN with that. nice work my fellow rayllum stans 👍
