#i’m trying to make them accurate

[laurrelise]

ok here we are so far what do we think!!

^ luther 100% dedicates his account to sloane and responding to his siblings (but mostly sloane) i’ve said this before but without a doubt he posts a picture of her every day like “another day passed and i’ve decided im still in love with my wife”

^ i hc that diego doesn’t go on social media a ton. he looks at his siblings’ posts and what he’s tagged in and all that but for the most part he tries to focus on irl experiences.

^ allison is verified and she absolutely posts a lot. sorry i don’t make the rules.

^ i thought i was so funny for his bio and location lmfao. his url was originally going to be “highandmighty” because i thought it was witty but im still kinda undecided, i cant really think of a good username for him 😭 lmk if anyone has any good ideas!!

^ you can’t tell me this asshole wouldn’t have “umbrellas dni” in his bio and then constantly retweet and comment on their posts. because he would. he absolutely would.

also i think at the height of his scamming era he got a ton of twitter followers but then lost a bunch but still has a sorta decent amount lol

^ i don’t have much to say tbh i love viktor so much he’s so adorable

^ unfortunately making five a chronically offline old man is so fun. making him misunderstand everything about social media is a blast. he sees the little prompt things and thinks he needs to specify that he’s at his house or that he doesn’t have a website. i simply love him im sorry

also i’m still waiting on the results of the pfp poll so when that’s over i’ll change his pfp to match whatever is chosen lol

Band!AU - AVALANCHE’s brand new album, Lifestream.

High concept album covers are FUN

Textless version and one with my terrible handwriting listing a fake track list under the cut.

designing outfits for my characters has led me to the conclusion that bisexuality (or just being mel) is the key to being the most fashionable

Ugh I’ve been so MIA I hate it 😭🖤 but I finally got my hands on a book last night and I can’t even

🚨KoA kinda round up🚨 from the depths of a sleep deprived forgetful quick rambling tired soul fangirling

Aedion screaming please and I take it back as Lysandra stands as Aelin in front of a war

The witch towers with the yielding which is scaring the hell out of me

Aelin reuniting with Chaol seeing him walk and that hug cause healing

And then immediately recognizing Yrene and their moment

And then her and Hasar being the queens they are

Plus Borte being Borte and just so many great characters in one shot

And I’m just so proud of Elide

And guys please for the love of gods just go to Terrasen

And then you have the cadre in all their glory and the ways she describes them which cracks me up because it’s like “stern beautiful Rowan” “glowing golden Gavriel” “Fenrys darling” “miserable bastard Lorcan” and their dynamic I just can’t even🤣 like the two of them have the sibling dynamic down to a science of “we hate each other… but okay maybe not really I guess their fine”

But then they learn about Maeve and holy shit rip my soul out and slap me with it

And then Aelin crying to Rowan which killed a little bit of my soul and healed it to hear it put into words and then killed it again and then there’s her and Fenrys and Gavriel and Rowan

“IM SO SO TIRED ROWAN”🖤 (but also why are we having this talk on an ice covered river… guys drowning is a real issue, just like scoot back into the forrest please?)

“No one would have left you like that, no one”😭 (I did spend like 10 minutes on Reddit trying to figure out what the “do you want me to tell you about it” line meant but I’m pretty sure it was stuff like that😭)

🥺”We fight”🥹

Chaol and Yrene need to talk about the baby so they can celebrate for .5 seconds cause there both being adorable again

Also like is there a new third person view cause now chapters end like “2 minutes in someone chaol never expected walks in” but then 4 chapter later the convo starts & then halfway through someone walks in… it’s not even forshadowing its like a preview?

Also are all valg princes princesses?

But like where’s my babies where’s my 13 where’s my Manon? Where’s my Dorian? We need the king and witch queen! How about my flower child who’s all dopey and in love? But also like no news is good news? I WANT AELIN NOWHERE NEAR THE KEYS WITH HER DEATH PLOT THESE DAYS MMM NO and then I thought it was the 13 when the wiverns pulled up but no it’s a witch tour greatgreatgreat greatgreatgreatgreeeeeeaaattttt

And have I mentioned I’m dead inside and this book is my world and it’s falling apart but in the beautiful perfect kinda way that feels like watching deathly hallows again but better

Also like I’m waiting for Aelin to unleash a fire storm

And it’s Rhoe’s shield🥺🥹

So idk this is where we are today

Chapter 51 here I come let’s see what Lorcan and inevitably Elide are up to and try to do some better posting catch up since the sleep deprivation is at peak productivity and let’s hope all my bbs reunite for a few scenes now and not to die or something cause is that too much to ask

P.S. MOONBEAM🤣🤣🤣

And I love how he just like ✨KAPOW💥 shifts I mean minus the trauma portion but the dramatic light flash effect would make Rhys (our lil wedding crasher) proud

PS PS I still love Nox

Need to put Traci in more situations because I’m really starting to worry I’m not conveying her properly

[lunathewafflelord]

I see a lot of art tutorial posts saying how to draw black people or fat people (just some examples I see most often, I’m sure this applies to other things) and a lot of them say “if you don’t draw x people well you’re a bad artist” and many people comment that on art posts where someone doesn’t draw a character’s body type (or other physical trait) accurately because apparently they didn’t even try to represent their body accurately.

Personally, I think it’s a bad message to tell people they’re a bad artist for not drawing certain traits accurately. While it may help some people, for many it’ll just discourage them from drawing as they feel like their art is bad.

Many people genuinely are trying their best at drawing certain body types or physical features, but since they’re still practicing it’s not going to look perfect. And that’s okay! Let people know how to improve, but don’t tell them they’re bad at art. People aren’t going to improve if they’re told their art is bad, it’ll just discourage them.

Insulting someone for drawing a character “too skinny” even if they clearly made an effort to draw their body as well as they could will just make them feel bad. Why not encourage them for trying to draw the character’s body accurately, and tell them how to improve on it? Provide reference images for certain physical traits and say how they could be applied to their style. Don’t insult them. Especially since many artists who struggle drawing certain traits are younger or beginners.

I’m not the best at drawing fat bodies or black features, but I am trying to improve on it. I have many sketchbook pages where I practice drawing different parts of the body. There’s always room to improve! But telling someone they’re bad at art doesn’t help. You can teach people how to improve without insulting their art.

So many tutorials have helpful information yet they can be quite rude towards people who don’t draw things accurately. People are more likely to listen to advice if you’re encouraging, not if you’re insulting.

(Note: I’m not black so I didn’t make any remarks about drawing black and other POC features accurately as I didn’t want to say anything incorrect. If you are black I’d appreciate your input! I’m just speaking from my perspective about drawing fat people, I’d appreciate perspectives of other people who are commonly drawn incorrectly!)

I’m bored, so please give me time periods (asks or reblogs) and I will draw ethubs specific to that period, thank you

[chrollogy]

I think it’s admirable that you’re doing research for your fic, it says a lot about you as a writer because not many go through extensive lengths to do so.

NONNIEEEEEEE 🥺🫶🏼 !!!!

so sorry this is making me sob sm but thank you!!! :( i had so much to research (from flights from hyōgo to tokyo all the way to the amount of snowfall in shizuoka 😭) and i’m happy its paying off!! glad you appreciate it!!! hope you’re enjoying the fic so far <3
