Dumb art advice for people who canât understand logic like me:
First, turn off your brain and just draw a bunch, for example you want to learn to draw hands, go on Pinterest search âHandsâ and just copy what you see, do this everyday for 30min-1hour, slowly youâll get a vague understanding of how hands work
THEN, go and watch some tutorials and the learn structure of the hand. The logic and structure are important but you wonât understand anything if you donât already have a good picture of what the thing look like in your brain.
(This method works really well if you want to learn anatomy, donât go dig into the muscle and skeleton, draw figures first, you donât need to know what youâre drawing you just need to have an understanding of the flow of human body, it will help you greatly later on when you really go into the structure of body)
Of course this is only based on personal experiences, you can learn the theories and then practice but that did not work for me, if I donât have hands on experience on what Iâm drawing I wonât understand a single word in the tutorial. Do what works best for you Iâm just putting this out here
#bearz rambling tag#I remember that one summer I spent an entire month just copying hands from Pinterest#well hands and sneakers#i got it tattooed into my muscle memory#it helped me a lot#i could draw very convincing hands even tho I donât know shit about it#I know I know smart practice is better than brainlessly drawing#but#it works#okay#donât overwork yourself 1 hour a day is enough#rush it will only give you carpal tunnel#Iâm a dumb learner#muscle memory save me muscle memory

something happening on a mission, something personal that has soap spiralling; panic and rage making him reckless, thoughtless, and ghost has to draw the line
âyouâre compromised johnny; you know what that means?â
âyouâre not pulling me out,â soap immediately snarls. he turns on him and ghost barely recognises him; venomous fear turning his eyes to unyielding ice. "you're not sidelining me; i need to be in this-!"
but ghost has never been afraid of venom; spat or dripped straight from bared fangs.
he snakes out a hand grip the back of his neck, jerking him in a rough shake. "if you can't think, you can't be a soldier," he growls and he flinches like he's been struck.
his lips quiver as they twist in a sneer and he wrenches, trying to free himself of his hold.
ghost doesn't let him.
"it means you give your body to me because your head ain't fucking attached to it anymore."
soap stills, body trembling beneath his hand as he sucks in shaking breaths.
he tightens his grip, pulling him closer and digs his forehead hard into his. âit means you give yourself to me so i can have the weapon that you are and use you the way you're meant to be used."
the ice in soap's eyes fractures.
ghostâs voice drops to a whisper, spoken only to johnny, not this facade of vengeance and pain, and wills it to reach him through the glaciers.
âso i can keep you safe âtil itâs done and i can bring you back.â
#in my head its bc graves abducts his sister and is using her as hostage to draw him out knowing ghost will always follow him#but the intensity and intimacy of saying âyou cant trust your mind not to betray you so let me be in charge of your body until you canâ#after what happened to tommy he could never deny johnny his right to save his sister#but its bc of what happened to tommy that he knows he cant let him do it alone with only his rage to guide him#hes more likely to get himself killed and ghost wont live through that#so he has to balance it#and the only way he knows how is to completely shut down soapâs mind until hes no more than instinct and muscle memory#if he cant think practically then dont let him think at all#reduce him to a place where he can only follow orders#and when its finally over and his sister is safe and graves is dead#only then will he drag johnny back up to the surface#heâll do it even if it means dragging him kicking and screaming back to humanity#instead of letting him sink in the depths where nothing hurts. theres no fear down there. no pain. only order#and thats the risk ghost took sending johnny to that place but he only did it bc he would stop at nothing to bring him back#and help him through the after#the breakdown. the rush of panic and rage and relief and anguish johnnys been supressing on his order#it was his word that turned johnny into a ghost#and its his touch that brings him back to the man#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#weâre a team. ghost team#cod#soapghost#ghostsoap#ghost x soap#ghoap#simon ghost riley#ghost cod#john soap mactavish#soap cod#save post

I'm gonna be so real i don't remember which episode i got this picture of Nathan from to redraw, i just wanted to do a body study. Version without lighting and effects below, and the og screenshot!!
#metalocalypse#my art#nathan explosion#i am certain i saved this from an episode but i donot recall which and yeah i recognise that says a lot about me as a person#i see a shirtless man and black out and hhmmmmmgh where am i#due to I Have Had An Oc Who Is A Dead Ringer For Him For Years Without Knowing It i feel like i have an advantage in drawing him#however it does mean i have the muscle memory of drawing a bigger guy than nathan is in the show as my oc is bigger.#but tbh i think thats only a positive lets just call it a mild redesign

there are things that you don't do for a year or more and pick up just right where you left off and these days i fear loving you might be one of them
#double meaning on that but. yeah.#it's like. i haven't touched the imaging software i use for an entire year. soldering iron in decades. pick it right back up. to my surpris#muscle memory is crazy#i don't draw for months and pick up right where i was with a few sketches bc the work you put in stays even when you don't actively practic#when it's something you've practiced weekly and daily it sticks with you and ig that's good#but then it's like. the horrors. that haunt you. yk? what if a part of me will always save a soft spot for my ex. what then.#what if I'm fine now and I'm doing okay and i don't miss it and I think i'm okay moving forward and i see her and suddenly I'm on the floor#what if some part of me that was in love never really went away what if i haven't managed to kill all of it yet#bc i genuinely would not know what to do. i. i don't want to admit it but one of my worst fears is liking someone who doesn't like you back#and what's even more horrifying is if it's obvious. if everyone can tell. and usually I'm good at hiding it! (not really) but it's just. id#it's shame in liking someone who you tell yourself you don't want to like and you know you shouldn't. and not having control over it.#hoping praying that either she does something that turns the little switch in my head that sends her into the unforgivable category#or that i become straight. or that i become straight. mhm. yep. or ig the other option is i get a crush on someone new but like. mm.#i kinda have gotten w every person I've had a crush on since hs and i kinda don't think im ready for another rs so soon.#the baggage i just got is. hm. idk i kinda don't wanna unpack it. it's something that can easily be done if i had the missing pieces but.#i don't think I'm ever gonna get them. so. instead I'm gonna take. maybe another 3 months or 5 months or a year or a few. to just. slowly.#idek. it's just triggering old things. bringing me back to when i was 14. i never really got closure from that either. it took me 3 years.#I'm sure this time it'll go away faster but idk experiencing it a second time has a different feel to it. idk. it's weird.#it's like. idk. it's like you're watching it happen and you're not even there anymore. idk. i really don't know.#oh. I've been dissociating.#idk maybe it's for the best i really don't know i really don't know and everyone says i have to do what's best for myself but idk what is#my life is on track things are moving forward I'm doing better and healing but i can't escape the feeling of dread#something is going to catch up with me sooner or later and idk what it is idk at what intensity and idk if i will be ready for it#but anyway. when you love someone intentionally every day for a while. when does it go away? will it go away?#or will i have to live haunted by ppl who are alive but changed. so practically dead w/o the opportunity to mourn. for the rest of my life?#like i don't think i get it. loving this person was like. cooking and eating. intentional. ingrained into everyday life. effortful.#what if my mind does forget but my body still remembers. what then. what if it's like searching for sth you don't remember having anymore#ig I'm just trying to figure out how much to forget these days. how much won't hurt if it all comes back to haunt me#delete later

im getting the hang of bg3 but i forgot how freaking frustrating it is when you have to Make Conscious Decisions
#i play mostly muscle memory games for this reason. like roguelikes and platformers. WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME THINK TACTICALLY#i saved at a point where the best option failed and the only option left was probably combat. i dont want to deal with that rn#I PICKED A HIGH CHARISMA CHARACTER FOR A REASON!!!

LOL I love Dehya since she's very fun to play but TIL jumping during her burst cancels the remainder of her entire burst rip.
TL;DR if you're dehya in her burst, don't jump XD
#genshin impact#dehya#don't know if this is intended or not but kinda funny actually#not me practicing how to jump cancel on miko and hu tao and muscle memory-ing on dehya#it's not a long burst but I was like Wait Where the Punch?#pls save me I'm locked in Tenacity of millelith jail

what frerard gaining traction again shows me is that all my voter fraud was doing a great job of balancing the numbers. until i stopped.
#i have to SLEEP :(#but if anyone does NOT have to sleep all u have to do is make fake tumblrs itâs so easy#i picked an email (doesnât have to be real) and kept adding numbers on the end#used the same password for muscle memory#you can get through the bday question by pressing j [tab] 1 [tab] 1 [enter] and then once it takes you to the âpick your interestsâ page you#can skip it by entering the url to the poll in the search bar#i had it saved on my clipboard to quickly paste#also just pick one of the suggested urls for quickest time#itâs so easy so if anyone wants to get in the tranches with me i highly reccomend#txt

I'm scandinavian and I can't swim LMAO đđ
Please reblog and add your nationality in the tags along with what you answered! I'm very curious about this; and it's not to shame anybody, so don't be rude!
#I did learn to one time but then I never went again cuz I had ISSUES and then I GOT MORE ISSUES so I just failed P.E entirely#and in H.S I was saved cuz we didn't have any swim classes in p.e#It's been almost 12 years since and I haven't done it once and if I genuinely have forgotten everything??#it's not like a bike where I kinda just get on and my muscle memory does the legwork#it's funny tho cuz my mom was a swim teacher and a pro swimmer for awhile and all her kids failed swim class which is such irony#that I kinda love that for me and to add even more punch we all failed for different reasons#scandinavian#no

#andre.txt#I HATE YOU SCROLL WHEEL!!!!!! I HATE YOU HUION TABLET SCROLL WHEEL!!!!!!!!!!!#atp im just waiting for customer support to either tell me im fucked or give me a coupon so i can buy a replacement for less than $70#problem is that i just really dont want to buy a new tablet- theyre so expensive and im trying to save money for trip in july#maybe i just need to heavily rewire my brain and retrain my muscle memory so i dont have to use the scroll wheel at all... WAAAAHHH#I DONT WANT TOOOOOO đđđđ WAAAAAHHH

Both as an English major and as a gamer, I'm always going to be saving my progress every two seconds.
#rambles#i've had far too many horrible experiences in the past#that saving my progress for both is simply muscle memory now lol#which has thankfully saved me from losing hours and hours of work ; w ;
