Beautiful Art And Great Angst

any tutorials/references u recommend for self-taught artists? my goal is to make fanart and some original stuff. u inspire me a lot :)

HELLO anons and THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR KIND WORDS! I think it’s hard to recommend specific tutorials bc I feel like what works for one person might not always work for another, but here are some good general resources I enjoy!!

This pinterest has A LOT of tutorials and references

Andrew Loomis’ books are gorgeous to look at and helpful!

YOUTUBE and gumroad are great resources, you can find a lot of helpful anatomy guides/ tutorials/ process videos on there e.g. proko, this video by steve huston, life drawing stuff etc AND here’s a list of some tutorials available on Gumroad

FOR Color, I’ve found this site and this site to be really good!

I also really like these tutorials HERE and HERE

AND some other art books I’ve found helpful are Anatomy for sculptors, Steve Huston’s figure drawing for artists, and michael hampton’s stuff!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST don’t be afraid to use photo references!!! IT WILL REALLY HELP

 I hope some of these might give you a place to start!!! FEEL FREE TO DROP ME ANOTHER MESSAGE if you couldn’t find what you wanted!!

okay yeah i imagine squib as a Japanese non-bin (get it like, binary code for computer and the like non binary for,,, nvm) dude who has long hair that are tendrils-like hair (wire) and detachable body parts and very touchy and he changes color baaed off mood (neutral = blue, angrey = red)

hi kel!!! can you show us your older art? Like those 'improvement' memes that show the artists improvement throughout the years? I think it would be really interesting ;-;;;;; ////sorry if this was asked before//// have a great day!

if you an adult learn to take sex criticism. Y'all be 26 giving out wack head cause you refused to listen in ya freshmen year of college that you not suppose to bite it like that. You 28 still just sticking dry penis in a dry hole saying “oh..you tight” NOT AROUSED!!!

finding out an online friend is attractive

I hate how the stereotype is that dolphins are good and sharks are evil, when dolphins are so smart that they have the capacity for evil but sharks are simple fish who can only be true neutral, so even if a minority of dolphins are evil there are still more evil dolphins than sharks

POKEMON BATTLE MUSIC INTENSIFY

Just in case you forget this exists.

It exists.

Okay but the Dream Daddy game looks like a dad au

You see this shit? This shit is absolutely not okay.  This image comes from a post by an anonymous woman, who shared these images after escaping from an abusive and controlling relationship. Her husband would frequently make her take pictures to prove where she was, and accuse her of sneaking off to cheat with a male coworker. And that is super, super fucked up. Keeping tabs on a partner all day is controlling. It’s abusive. It’s insane. You have a right to privacy, and a right to lead your own life. Someone who really loves you will trust you when you tell them where you are, and they won’t ever ask you to “prove” that you’re telling the truth. A loving partner will treat you like an adult, and won’t spy on you like an overprotective parent.  This still applies, by the way, to people who have been cheated on. Yes, being cheated on is a horrible experience. No, it is not an excuse to turn into a toxic and abusive partner. Staying with a partner who has cheated means that you are agreeing to trust that person again, not that you are giving yourself free reign to micromanage and terrorize that person in the future. If, for whatever reason, you can’t bring yourself to trust your partner, you might not be ready for a relationship just yet.  No one deserves to be treated like this. 

Expect better. Be better.
