Your art is amazing and so cute! Do you have any drawing/anatomy tips you’re willing to share?

Oh man I don't know if I'm in any position to give ANATOMY tips specifically hgfdkh I feel I still have a LOT to learn in that regard!! I have a degree in Graphic Design but tbh a lot of those classes were based in - well graphic design and didn't cover a ton of drawing/illustration stuff, so much of what I know is self-taught!

I'd say just in general, draw as much as possible. Even if it didn't turn out exactly the way you want. I'm gonna post some Cringe Art of mine to show some examples

I Did not like how these turned out in the end. BUT they were requests from my Strawpage and this was super early on in me posting on twitter n gaining a little following, so I just pushed on, finished them, and posted them. Not letting myself get Obsessed with one drawing and making sure it turned out "perfect" helped me to just KEEP drawing, which sharpened my skills and gave me WAY more muscle memory! I used to have to check other drawings of Arkham Ed to make sure I was drawing him right, but now I could pop out an Origins, City, or Knight Riddler with one hand behind my back because I've drawn him. So many times now ghksfh

and I think this general advice applies to technical skills like anatomy, lighting, etc. too! The more you just force yourself to draw that janky hand and keep it moving, you'll learn what you DON'T want things to look like, and eventually you'll kind of Teach Yourself the way it's supposed to look. At least for you in your art style!!

AND OFC THANK YOU SM FOR THE COMPLIMENT YOU ARE TOO SWEET

togame would be the one guy willing to recreate romcom scenes with you because he's equally sappy about romance

Yesterday I was (lovingly) bullying someone into drawing Dame fanart and they asked me what photos of Dame I would want to see turned into art so I went to her instagram and I stumbled across this which I somehow had never seen before????

Something something pretty women in T-shirts something something

Good evening, my sole post for the day is: I think clones would be really confused about skirts, because they'd look at one and go ??? Kamas for natborns?? But if they had ARCs then they'd be in the war, right??? Just a gaggle of troopers all gathered around a rack in a clothing store while on shore leave, or discreetly glancing at a local's outfit, and exchanging incredibly confused looks.

Your older works have concept art, it's very cool.

thank you. i do not do concept images anymore because they take me out of the story. most of the time, the concept images includes skinny white girls (which is fine, i'm not judging anyone that does concept images for the vibes, esp because this kind of content is saturated with thin white women because that's the majority of who models historically unfortunately). idk it totally puts me in a weird mood before reading something.

not that i don't envision some type of person before writing something (so basically i do have some kind of bias as i write, as we all do), but i don't want a reader to envision someone other than someone they look like (or the oc they've created in their head). most of my work includes a curvy or plus-sized reader as well because that's me and fanfiction notoriously has catered to those that are thinner than me (no, the average man can't carry me and i hate wearing a dress with thin straps that dips low because then i can't wear a bra and i don't wear bikinis because i'm self conscious), and it irks me, so i refrain from concept images now because i'd just rather not plaster any kind of person as the "face" of the work (even if i specified that it's just for the vibes, you're thinking about that person now, aren't you? or you might think that's who i had in mind as i wrote it, and now you're wondering if you wanna read it).

so you won't see concept images on this blog or in any future works unless it's the character i'm writing about or a painting that might've inspired me. just kinda takes me out of it, and i'm sure others might feel the same way, and i want people to focus on the writing and not who i had in mind as i wrote the fic (except that maybe they're curvier/plus-sized, because i'm intentionally writing with this in mind).

you know disco elysium is a good game because i'm willing to play through the exact same plot and side quests and puzzles over and over and over again. not to solve a murder mystery but because i'm fascinated with trying out alternate universe versions of harry du bois

what if he was a centrist honor cop that is also an outspoken feminist that chainsmokes. what if he was a sloppy sloppy party boy drunk doing every drug he sees, and he thinks the world is going to end. what if he was a horribly bigoted fascist - how does he exist in this world with a gay partner of color, how does he reconcile his white supremacist beliefs with that of measurehead's black supremacist beliefs (which he ends up adopting)? what if he was an outspoken communist bisexual that actively hates being a police officer at every single step and is going to resign the second the game ends, and he's been sober the entire time? what if he has 1 in every skill and spends his entire time crying, throwing up, apologizing, and passing out.

and also... do any of these men know their own name? what do they prioritize, in terms of memory recall? how do they choose to dress and present themselves to the world? does he shave? why or why not?

if they all pick the same dialogue option, are they saying it and meaning it in the same way? our protagonist is not voiced. he could be sincere, sarcastic, bitter, manic, bureaucratic, empathetic.

it's such a good study in people and ideology. regardless of beliefs, all of my characters have taken bribes. they've helped the union leader. they cozy up to the ultraliberal. even the cop trying to be the most Ethical. the most Fuck The Police. ends up abusing his own power. ends up killing people. ends up stealing. invades privacy. because its what is dictated by the job. by the narrative.

when you try to be apolitical, you still do all of those things. and, in fact, if you're apolitical enough you can abandon martinaise entirely and you get assassinated by the moralintern for Knowing Too Much about the pale.

if you play a communist you still have dros at the end telling you that you're not a real communist because you haven't fought for revolution. you're a wannabe

if you play a fascist dros even tells you that you're not a real fascist because you haven't enacted enough fascist violence. you're a wannabe

if you're a liberal you're shielding the fascists

you cannot be "a good guy" in disco elysium and you cannot "win." a "good" ending is getting recruited back to the force, and you can still manage to do that if you don't drink and kim is by your side. you can be brutal and awful and violent to everyone and everything. and they let you back.

even "good cops" cannot choose to resign. you must be kicked out of the force. which you do by hurting yourself and letting others get hurt

you can only resign if you take enough Morale Damage that you abandon not just the force but the entire community. and you get a game over screen

man. this fucking game....
