guys I just figured something out about Vaggie’s design and this may already have been noticed but whatever. it needs a bit of background though
so I’m practicing just making character’s faces into shapes so I can draw them from memory better and it was Vaggie’s turn (I’ve already done Charlie and Alastor and I don’t really need to do it for Angel). so I started off with the basic facial structure layer and I traced over several pictures of her to figure out where the main circle is and whatnot and I realized “huh. this is really similar to how I would draw a typical human face but whatever.”
then I moved on to the facial features layer and I was like “wait hang on this doesn’t look like her at all, what—“ the problem was that everything was soft. there is not a single hard angle on her face. not one. even her nose is fairly curved.
then I did the last layer (her hair). her hair is entirely triangles, rectangles, and diamonds— no circles or ovals at all. even Alastor has at least one oval in his bangs. and I sat back and I looked at what I’d done and i was like “this definitely looks like her, but what if i—”
so I turned the hair layer visibility off and it didn’t look like her again. turned it back on and there she was. and it took a minute but it finally hit me.
her sharpness is what makes her her.
without her anger and her angles and her hard exterior, she is not Vaggie. she is someone else— someone that she left behind a long time ago.

Can we talk about this? Can we TALK about this
HE IS MADE OF LOVE. HIS FACE IS HEART SHAPED. HOW CAN YOU TURN AGAINST SOMEONE WHO'S FACE IS HEART SHAPED
Id: six pictures of ballister boldheart from the 'Nimona' movie, there is a heart drawn around his face in each picture that follows the shape of his features. End ID

Hi
To all character designers who when changing a character outfit for a later part in the story use the clothing and hair to make the silhouette’s shapes different, showing how the character evolves, can you marry me because it doesn’t happen nearly as much as it should and I love you all.

Hey! I need feedback and ideas on how to design poc characters, namely black characters! As a white person I obviously don’t know shit about it and my friends who know more (and are black) have recommended that I reach out to more than just them for help, and so I figured the internet would be a good place to start since I feel weird talking to someone with only the intention of asking them about character design.
First, how do i incorporate character design rules such as shape language and color theory into designing black people and other pocs?
Second, how do I avoid making characters based on stereotypes? Is there a way to do that while also following the standard rules of character design?
How does shape theory and color theory apply to black people versus white people? I know that golds and silvers look better on certain skin tones than others, but beyond that how do i know when I’m making a character with darker skin tones look good versus making them look like a mess?

We don't talk enough about the fact that Amelia Pond, s5 Amelia Pond, before the timeline is reset, isn't just a normal orphan. Her parents didn't die, didn't abandon her, and didn't send her away. They never existed in the first place.
And if her parents never existed, then Amelia cannot exist. She is a causal impossibility.
"People fall out of the world sometimes, but they always leave traces." A photograph. A face carved into an apple. Yes. Sure.
A child.
Now that's too big, surely.
But that's what she is. She is exactly the same as these things. A trace. An echo of something that could never be, never was, never could have been.
And the universe should never allow it. A whole person, that's just too much. She could not have continued to exist indefinitely, in normal circumstances, after her parents never existed.
In normal circumstances.
Because the Doctor didn't just save her from things coming out of the crack in her wall. He saved her from going into it. And he didn't just save her from the threat of going into it simply because of its vicinity.
No, by arriving when he did, he interrupted a process that was probably already in motion. And then by arriving again only moments later on a cosmic relative timestream (too quickly for the process to complete) and yet in the local relative timestream, years later --- years of a potential future caught midway through the process of rewriting -- he solidified that existence. Amy is a creature from another timeline, caught in amber. The Doctor prevented her from never existing, but only after she could already never exist.
And so, no one around Amelia thinks about it. Neither does she. There's some kind of consciousness block, because if you thought about it, really thought about it, for two seconds you'd realize she cannot exist. And the human mind can't deal with that. So, to protect itself, everyone's brain simply slides off it before ever noticing. They just assume that her existence makes sense, and don't question it, and don't notice what they don't question, that is staring them in the face.
But of course, to some extent they do notice. They can't think it, but they notice subconsciously that there's something they can't think. They notice there's something wrong with her, something uncanny. And they don't like it, and they alienate her even more because of it.
"Does it ever bother you Pond that your life existence doesn't make any sense?"

i forgot that ralsei just says this directly to lancer's face. he doesn't even turn to kris to whisper in secret he just said this in front of (quite literally) god and everyone. ralsei you're going to kickstart this round boy's seam arc if you keep saying things that don't make sense but don't not make sense either like this right in front of him.
