South Holland: "What the-.. you ain't a fish! You also don't have boobs, so you're not a mermaid either... The fuck are you???"
Ivan: He can´t help but stare a little.
“You don’t have a tail or sharp teeth....what are you?“ The Mer asks, tilting his head like some confused sharp-toothed dog. “No claws either....can I bite you f you are rude to me?“

Hey! So this isn't exactly an art request but more of a question! I'm really, really dying to get into art, and I've never done ANY sort of art or sketching or drawing or anything before. I have a sketchbook and some pens but when I sit down to try and start learning or doing anything I just?? Don't know how???? Or where to start????? Do you know of a good place to start? Or how did you start when you first got into it? Your blog has been such a cute, wonderful place for me recently and idk id really love any advice you could give!
oh this is the absolute sweetest anon i’ve ever gotten!!! 😭 i’m so glad my little trash corner can provide some serotonin!!!
honestly starting to draw is one of the most difficult parts, to a point where even now its hard for me to do anything because unless i have a very specific image in my head, starting is so overwhelming. but when you’re just starting out with art in general, the best advice i can give is:
1. practice lines and shapes! there are plenty of references online of exercises that legit art students use! searching something like ‘artist warm ups’ brings some good examples!
2. pinterest is your best friend for pose references tbh. my favourites are by Kibbitzer!
3. even if its just a little doodle, practicing every day can really help. i’m being a complete hypocrite here because i do not draw everyday myself lmao but if you can help it, try to!
4. look at other artists’ art! i’ve learned so much just by studying other people’s art tbh. i’ve been on tumblr since i was 11 (almost ten years now) and over that time there have been so many amazing artists i’ve looked up to! studying their art, looking at their use of shapes and colours, seeing what medium and/or digital brushes they use, etc. help to figure out what it is you’d like to portray with your own art! i’ll provide a list of favourite artists of mine!
@reallunargift / @lunargift-art
@schmitskatz / @pappadu (beloved mutual!)
@nordickies / @anski-art (another beloved mutual!!)
@laoness / @ask-useless-german (a dear close friend of mine who i love very much!)
@ask-thenetherlands (another dear close friend of mine who i love very much!)
@ashafox
@ask-p2-germany
@stirringwinds
… and so many more that i cannot pinpoint at the moment but bottom line is there are so many amazing artists here on tumblr that i admire to no end, and they’ve been my inspiration when it comes to developing my own art!

Is there /anything/ you like about Gilbert? Or have in common with him? Or is there only pure resentment towards him?

Krischan: “He insists he is the better sword fighter but everyone knows he has never beaten me in a duel.Or ever, actually. There were some occasions where we got a long, during the Napoleonic wars for example. But those times were brief compared to our centuries of conflict.”

👀 ((You pick the muse for it xD))
Send 👀 to walk in on my muse in their underwear
Ludwig was staying a few days with Tim again, just because. But what he didn’t know was that some of his children were visiting too. So now, just while he was getting dressed from taking a shower, someone came into the bathroom (which he forgot to lock cause he’s a bit silly today). He quickly turned towards the door and saw Liesje standing there. Oh, god this was awkward! He just froze up for a second.
“Uh.... Do you... need something?”
