He learned from his pa😌
lemme tell you about this thing Luka does
Isha, but she grew up to be Jinx's Age. 🥺😌💙💗
Yep, people (haters) do be that way. I don't get how people can watch a media and not use simple common sense to understand what they're watching. But hey, if it's not your prerogative then so be it
Leslye: There was no manipulation.
People: Ewwww he manipulated herrrr.
Manny: There was no manipulation. He was being truthful and vulnerable.
People: He's so manipulativeeee.
Amandla: She wasn't manipulated. Every choice she made was her own.
People: Booooo, manipulation! Osha was manipulated.
The writer/actor/actress:

I also think Luka deserves better, but not in the context of "deserves better from Marinette". Deserves better for me is just send the boy off overseas, and stop making him be the "mediator" to the love square problems. Why the heck does HE have to deal with that? Even if he's nice enough not to see it as a problem, solve y'all on problems.
Why would people would ship Luka with a girl he hasn't even canonically met (Zoe) and look away from a genuinely good friends to lovers ship (Lukanette)?
An eye-rolling mixture of reasons:
1. The visual connections: the highlights, the crazy shoes, the torn pants (Zoe has a small rip in hers), et cetera.
2. Some multishippers (people who ship both love square and Lukanette) are quick to pawn Luka off on another girl so that love square can be their endgame while Luka is still with someone.
3. The above also goes for love square shippers who don't ship Lukanette. It's easy to say, "oh, see? Luka can't get with Marinette because... b-because he's with Zoe!"
4. Spite. Some people want to "teach Marinette a lesson" and have her be "too late" to go back to Luka so that she can go running to Adrien/Chat afterwards.
5. The """Luka Deserves Better""" crowd, often love square shippers disguising themselves as Luka supporters or spontaneously liking/supporting Luka as a way of discrediting Lukanette. Plus, Zoe's rich and blond and "perfect"; Marinette could never hope to compete.
6. The faux Lukanette shippers who immediately stop shipping it now that it's "over" and "not canon anymore" (so they then go onto ship Luka/Zoe instead which is also not canon ¬_¬).
No judging to people who find intrigue in shipping characters who haven't interacted before because maybe they want to play around with the idea just in general or anything. It's just that, when that's not the case, some people have really obvious motives, lol.
I promised Dia (aka aerequets) that I will make a collection of pose references in the reply of one of her art posts, and then I completely forgot about it. Until now. I'm sorry for my bad memory.
So, yeah, better late than never I guess?
The pose collection I use the most is no longer free. They used to let you download a whole album (more than 8GB worth of data) to use offline, but now you have to pay $40/package or $200 for full sets. I still have the zip file for a very old version of theirs, but I can't legally share it. So, let's skip to the other options.
1/ First, you heard of those 3D dolls program that let you model your own reference pose? This one is an online one and for free, the whole ordeal. Of course since it's online and free, you can't save your model for next time, and it costs quite a lot of time to set the model up. So, you should take as much screenshots in as many tricky angles as you need once you done with the setting. Best using for complicated scenes where those below don't have what you need already available.
2/ This one is free and in 3D, you can rotate the model to any angle that you need. The only set back is the numbers of poses are quite limited. This one is best for using as a basic blocks then build up what you want to draw, or just as a practice to improve your understanding of human anatomy.
3/ This one is free for personal uses and the pose collection is massive. The setbacks are the language barrier (it's in Japanese, English is sometimes tag-a-long) and you have to search through their pages for what you need. The pics for each pose is static but they are in different angle in almost 360 degrees. There are many 2-person and 3-person poses too. Great for illustration inspiration.
4/ This one will only show reference photos of human head, at whatever angle you rotate the model. The web interface is easy to use. There are options like searching based on gender, ages, emotions, glasses, facial hair or not, etc. Good for practicing face drawing.
5/ This one will show reference photos for human body parts, at whatever angle you rotate the model, read the instructions for how to do it. The web interface is quite hard to use at first, just tinkering around for a bit, and you will be fine. There are options like searching based on gender and which particular parts that you need refs for. Good for that moment when you go "huh? how is this <body part> will look in this <situation>????"
6/ This one will only show reference photos of animal heads, and only the head, at whatever angle you rotate the model. The accurate skull refencence list is their best point. There are enough common species in the drop down list. Tbh, I don't use this much because I often need refs for the whole animal most of the time. But it's best for furry artists, I guess?
7/ Real model photos. They sell pose reference in themed packs, but there are enough free packs to use as drawing practice too.
8/ This is the best for general background reference. Lots of options. Not really good for very specific location results, but good for random background in drawings.
9/ Lastly, for specific objects or background references at strange angles, I often search for 3D models on this site then take screenshots of whatever I need.
That's all, folks. Hope this list can help ease some of the struggles that we will encounter on our quest of learning the art of drawing things 😂
