Lumen’s Glow Up Challenge

✨✨  About the challenge  ✨✨

Starting with January, I have a glow up challenge for you guys. Now this will be essentially a mental glow up, because as I keep saying getting your mindset right is the nr. 1 step to improving yourself. To be exact, the challenge will consist of a question daily which will encourage you to review any scarcity mindset. It will push you to expand your worldviews and beliefs regarding wealth, success, love and more. 🙌🏻 🙌🏽 🙌🏿 By doing these exercises, you will be confronting all the mental barriers and limiting beliefs you may still carry with you - whether they were conditioned into you by society, by family, by surroundings or anything else.

✨✨  Do it at your own pace  ✨✨

You can (and should!) do these challenges at your own rhythm. You can reply to them directly daily with your thoughts, or you can reblog them to have them saved and just meditate over them when the time is right. Or you can answer the questions in your journal/diary ✏️ thus having a special place to detail your mindset glow up journey. Whichever it is, do what works for you! It’s all about you, darlings.

Stay tuned 💋🥂

This is another picture that is inspired by Mary C. or adonyne. This is legoshi and Nick. I know that the shirt on Legoshi isn't 100% correct, and I can't really depict what to draw on the shirt. I'm bad at drawing small details like plants and I think that's what's on Nicks shirt. So, I can't do it. Anyway... #nickwilde #legoshibeastars #adonyneart #inspirationart #zootopia #beastars #catycool https://www.instagram.com/p/CEPBQ1xDDv0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Writing fight scenes

masterlist. main navigation.

1. Pacing

A fight scene should be fast-paced and intense. Unless it's a final battle with numerous parties, a fight scene that's too long tends to take away suspense. To speed up your pacing, use active voice to describe movement and don't overdescribe your characters' thoughts. Excessive inner monologue will be unrealistic, as people usually have no room to think during intense combats.

2. Character mannerisms

Here's a point that people often overlook, but is actually super important. Through fight scenes, you should be able to reveal your characters' contrasting mannerisms and personality. A cunning character would play dirty - fighting less and making use of their opponent's weakness more. A violent character would aim to kill. A softer one would only target to disarm their enemies, using weakened attacks. A short-minded character would only rely on force and attack without thinking. This will help readers understand your characters more and decide who to root for.

3. Making use of surroundings

Not only the characters, you also need to consider the setting of your fight scene and use it to your advantage. Is it suitable for fighting, or are there dangerous slopes that make it risky? Are there scattered items that can help your characters fight (e.g. nails, shards of glass, ropes, wooden boards, or cutlery)? Is it a public place where people can easily spot the fight and call the authorities, or is it a private spot where they can fight to the death?

4. Description

The main things that you need to describe in a fight scene are :

• Characters involved in the fight

• How they initiate and dodge attacks

• Fighting styles and any weapons used

• The injuries caused

Be careful to not drag out the description for too long, because it slows down the pace.

5. Raise the stakes

By raising the stakes of the fight, your readers will be more invested in it. Just when they think it's over, introduce another worse conflict that will keep the scene going. Think of your characters' goals and motivations as well. Maybe if the MC didn't win, the world would end! Or maybe, one person in the fight is going all-out, while the other is going easy because they used to be close :"D

6. Injuries

Fights are bound to be dirty and resulting in injuries, so don't let your character walk away unscathed - show the effect of their injuries. For example, someone who had been punched in the jaw has a good chance of passing out, and someone who had been stabbed won't just remove the knife and walk away without any problem. To portray realistic injuries, research well.

7. Drive the plot forward

You don't write fight scenes only to make your characters look cool - every fight needs to have a purpose and drive the plot forward. Maybe they have to fight to improve their fighting skills or escape from somewhere alive. Maybe they need to defeat the enemy in order to obtain an object or retrieve someone who had been kidnapped. The point is, every single fight scene should bring the characters one step closer (or further :D) to the climax.

8. Words to use

• Hand to hand combat :

Crush, smash, lunge, beat, punch, leap, slap, scratch, batter, pummel, whack, slam, dodge, clobber, box, shove, bruise, knock, flick, push, choke, charge, impact

• With weapon :

Swing, slice, brandish, stab, shoot, whip, parry, cut, bump, poke, drive, shock, strap, pelt, plunge, impale, lash, bleed, sting, penetrate

I'm in LOVE with this!

Here's some notes on some of the upper body muscles so you, artist, don't need to look them up

They are not medically accurate, just enough for artists to know the necessary muscles and how they work together

I 100% recommend doing the last exercise I did to be able to actually place the muscles

⚠️ PLEASE TELL ME IF YOU WANT TO REPOST MY ARTWORK, AND PLEASE GIVE ME CREDIT⚠️ Hey guys!!
