Petition To Rename The Usa ‘south Canada’

Just saw Robin (the older one) making out with some blonde guy on his patrol and I wanna who that is and how he did it

So, I saw this image on Facebook, and it was supposedly showing what Queen Nefertiti would have looked like in real life:

Now, I thought this AI generated garbage was just truly terrible on a number of levels; first off, she looks wayyyyyy too modern - her makeup is very “Hollywood glamour”, she looks airbrushed and de-aged, and as far as I’m aware, Ancient Egyptians didn’t have mascara, glitter-based eyeshadows and lip gloss. Secondly, her features are exceptionally whitewashed in every sense - this is pretty standard for AI as racial bias is prevalent in feeding AI algorithms, but I genuinely thought a depiction of such a known individual would not exhibit such euro-centric features. Thirdly, the outfit was massively desaturated and didn’t take pigment loss into consideration, and while I *do* like the look of the neck attire, it's not at all accurate (plus, again, AI confusion on the detailing is evident).

So, this inspired me to alter the image on the left to be more accurate based off the sculpture’s features. I looked into Ancient Egyptian makeup and looked at references for kohl eyeliner and clay-based facial pigment (rouge was used on cheeks, charcoal-based powder/paste was used to darken and elongate eyebrows), and I looked at pre-existing images of Nefertiti, both her mummy and other reconstructions. While doing this, I found photos of a 3D scanned sculpture made by scientists at the University of Bristol and chose to collage the neck jewellery over the painting (and edited the lighting and shadows as best as I could).

Something I see a lot of in facial recreations of mummies is maintaining the elongated and skinny facial features as seen on preserved bodies - however, fat, muscle and cartilage shrink/disappear post mortem, regardless of preservation quality; Queen Nefertiti had art created of her in life, and these pieces are invaluable to developing an accurate portrayal of her, whether stylistic or realistic in nature.

And hey, while I don't think my adjustments are perfect (especially the neck area), I *do* believe it is a huge improvement to the original image I chose to work on top of.

I really liked working on this project for the last few days, and I think I may continue to work on it further to perfect it. But, until then, I hope you enjoy!

Remember, likes don't help artists but reblogs do!

Reblog if you're not homophobic

Every url that reblog’s will be written in a book and shown to my homophobic dad. 

I think I accidentally got hired by a company owned by a death cult, but the pay is good so I might stay

So this blog is sort of just me if I lived in Gotham City but with a different name for privacy reasons

Name: Cleff

Pronouns: they/it

Gender: what are you, a cop?

Feel free to send asks for this character!

Edit: I have decided to become a supervillain

No

There can't be a drug trade if I eat all the drugs

reblog if you're the single teen at family functions so you just stand in the corner watching the kids play and the adults talk

I feel like, if forced to choose a poor person job, Tim would be a stripper. I don't know why, he just gives that energy. So does Dick, but for entirely different reasons

I'm bored, as I always am. Give me your most insane Batfam opinions. Or fun facts, if you feel so inclined. Idk much about the rest of DC, but feel free to talk about other supers if you want. I just love yapping.

Ibrahim @wolf-aid is 15 years old. He was studying hard and trying to graduate when his school was bombed and destroyed. He is just a child, shouldering a lot of responsibility despite his young age.

His family consists of his mother, who suffers from diabetes, and his father, who has cancer. He worries about his mothers, who cannot receive the necessary treatment due to the destruction of much of Gaza's healthcare system, infrastructure, and resources.

His family has been displaced more than ten times. During brief ceasefires, they were allowed to return to their home, but when they arrived, they found it bombed, destroyed, and no longer habitable. They are now homeless and trying to survive in desperate conditions, fearing shelling day and night.

He and his friends survived being fired upon by Israeli ships, and one of them sustained minor injuries.

He's just a child. He bears a huge responsibility for the survival of his entire family, and is trying to raise funds via Tumblr. He is extremely frightened and depressed and needs our help! Thank you!!
