being the child of an illustrator who learned the craft and worked mostly before digital art became common means I have a looooot of knowledge about traditional illustration techniques that I may actually never use

#i just saw an incredible illustration that was 100% made using only an airbrush and masks #lots of advertisement illustrations in the 80s and 90s were mostly done using airbrushing and its one of my favorite techniques ever #I also appreciate old manga art using adhesive screentones. one of my favorite things ever #mom had a lot of old magazines about illustration techniques specifically for advertising and I loved playing with them as a kid #one of my favorite things to do was to cut pretty pics from magazines and paste them on notebooks #but I loved my mom's illustration techniques magazines that I never cut them I just loved looking at the pictures #(they were in german I cant remember the title of the magazine)

how it started:

how it's going:

#jitxt #my stuff #proud owner of This Specific Photo of Kimura Takuya #not to conflate the two bc my enjoyment of yagami and kimutaku are connected but separate #but obviously it would be bs to pretend i would've been interested in smap without playing judgment #truthfully i was eyeing a magazine too but i don't like investing money/shelf space into an interest unless i'm certain it's here to stay #unfortunately kimura takuya is still only a recent interest so. something small like this is fine #though i might have to get a bromide holder to keep him safe... i know there's an aus run business that sells idol goods like that...#anyway uhhhh first picture context for those who might've missed my lore earlier:#is that post-JE pre-LJ. i didn't really care for yagami. lmao.#i saw yagami fans and it seemed like they were having fun but i genuinely didn't understand their affection for him #and so getting through LJ and starting to like yagami i was like WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ME #thinking “lol look at his lame flat ass (affectionate)” and then going “WHAT. WHAT WAS THAT.”#<- girl who realised that she sounded exactly like the yagami fans online #and so i wrestled with it for a while #and bc i was talking in my friend's discord server about my experience with LJ i have this golden screenshot #of the day i finally gave in. pretty sure i'd been looking at pictures of yagami and kimutaku for like an hour beforehand lol #AND MY MESSAGES AFTERWARDS WERE STILL DRIPPING WITH COPE ABOUT IT #said something along the lines of. that i thought they tried way too hard to make yagami seem cool #and then followed it by saying i felt genuinely upset thinking about how i could never be on a date with him #THE DENIAL IS CRAZY... JUST SAY YOU LIKE HIM #anyway i've long accepted my fate but it's still funny to think about #jichan is asked to leave the fandom for needing to play 2 games to start liking yagami #meanwhile my sister's opinion on him hasn't changed at all. “he's alright” <- real quote about yagami from days ago #anyhow that's one of the main reasons i'm playing JE. so i can reevaluate that game with fresh eyes/new perspective #excuse my impromptu storytime. but i guess this whole post is about landmark moments in Jichan Liking Yagami so it's not entirely unfitting #i like yagami takayuki 👍 and now i like kimura takuya too 👍#gave this photo a goodnight kiss last night btw

from Picture Play Magazine, August 1925

original caption:

EVEN though it started with such a flare, Clara Bow's career has had its merely smoldering moments. But she bursts into new prominence in Lubitsch's "Kiss Me Again."

I hit post limit yesterday which was kind of hilarious because 1) I didn't even know you could still do that 2) I have a time limit set for tumblr app on my phone, which means I reblogged 250 posts in less than three hours, and 3) I hit post limit at 2pm, and I had to stew in tumblr jail all freakin day

#chit chat #is the post limit still 250? i couldn’t find anything newer than 2017 on google #i was going wild about The Character and tumblr said nope! go touch grass!#so then i knitted a hat and i drew some pictures and i listened to half an audiobook #and i played some video games and i journaled and i read a magazine on my bed like a teen girl from the 90s #but i did not touch grass because it was like 12 degrees outside

Lillian Gish photographed by Abbe as seen in the October 1923 issue of Picture Play Magazine

Caption: This glimpse of one of the early scenes in "The White Sister," Lillian Gish's first picture for the Inspiration company, holds rare promise of beauty, for it seems to have caught in its very backgrounds her ephemeral charm.
