I've had Tumblr for over a year and still don't know how this app works :)
Thinking about commissioning a plushie of my fursona, so I figured Iād make him a ref sheet. (I didnāt have the motivation or time to do a full turnaround)
This is for people of Israel/anyone who supports Israel/anyone who wants to stay "neutral" about this genocide, remember that this is how your fav "defenders/heroes/government servants are supposed to be responsible" are talking about innocent Palestinians civilians:
If you choose not to speak on this matter, if you choose to not speak up for Palestinians, then be well assured, 100% guaranteed that what's happening in Palestine can (and will if you let Israel get away with MASS MURDER) also just as easily happen to you, and then there will be other people who would stay "neutral" and silent on this matter.
If you think that the reason you're not taking sides is because you don't really know the situation that well, then EDUCATE yourself. It is your responsibility, as a fucking human, to do your research to stop and prevent such atrocities from being committed.
(I know, I FUCKING KNOW I have at least a few dozen followers from Israel/support Israel/ZIONISTS who are reading this and I know that your eyes may be blind, but your hearts aren't. Don't be a hypocrite, and don't be ignorant)
Felt that itās important to share videos like this too.

Any Tips on how to go about foreshortening?
Haha! No but seriously, I personally wing it. But Iāll do my best to explain my process! First, letās take the art that I ~think~ influenced this ask:
So in order to figure out the perspective, I always have to have a 1) a head to refer to. Then itās very important to 2) mark the general area to the head that you want the hand to be. 3) shoulder! 4) make a line of action that you want the torso to follow and mold the shape around it.
Thereās also the tube method! Think about arms/legs as shapes, specifically. Most of the time the reason why people struggle with foreshortening is because they try to attack the details before attacking the shape. Donāt do that! Youāll trip yourself every time. Shape first, detail second. Youāll also notice that a forearm has more mass towards the elbow, and thighs are a lot bigger than you think when the leg is bending! Which brings me into my next thing.
FIGURE STUDY!! STUDY THAT FIGURE! If youāre able to take classes, DO IT and donāt choose a basic seat! Challenge yourself! If you canāt take classes, use yourself as reference or find websites/videos specifically for academic figure study. Draw what you see and not what you know. Look up what a quick pose/gesture drawing is, and if thereās tutorials.
Getting to know the body and its muscles is a VERY powerful tool. Sorry to be a broken record, but the basics are important for a reason. So many artists say āpractice,ā but I donāt think enough say āobserve.ā Because thatās literally all that I do and I stare long enough to try and put it to paper. Observe other people! The details! Notice the absence of flat surfaces, how we think we know the body but we donātā
Ack! Sorry, a lot of these tutorials I give always end in me spilling my passion for figure study. But yeah! Observation, placement, shapes, and uh⦠winging it! Really thatās all that art is. Itās sure to help with foreshortening.
I hope this helps!

bro i luv spider-punk but i specifically wanna talk about his hair
[image description: a gif from Across the Spider-verse of Hobie, without his mask, saying: "I was this cool the whole time." End image description]
he. has. wicks!!!
the origin of wick dreadlocks is florida usa, and are named due to the resemblance to a "candle wick" because of how they stick straight up and/or out!
now, wicks have a bad reputation even within the loc community.
its already known that like if you got dreads, generally, ppl think u are unkempt, and dirty, and things of that nature, but there is even more discrimination against wicks its unreal. like legit yall i cant even begin to explain the nasty shit ppl say about them because i will be sad.
its kinda just considered the "crazy Florida man hairstyle". and a lot of the hate is due to the fact that wicks, appear "unkempt" or things of that nature
there has been a lot of texturism in the loc community which has brought with it the idea that dreads need to be retwisted to be "properly" taken care of, and need to be flat on your head and all these other things that often bring with it the need to hide your natural hair. i get unsolicited advice on my hair all the time telling me "i need a retwist" because of the belief that black hair needs to be all tidy and stuff to be respected.
but the thing is, dreads aren't meant to be all neat and tidy all the time y'know. its black hair in one of its most natural forms. and who better to showcase that than hobie brown, spider punk?
wicks kinda go against everything that dreads are "supposed" to be and "supposed" to look like.
i just love everything about this movie but i especially wanted to like talk about this hair choice. hair most def has meaning, especially black hair, so i think this was a really cool and fitting design choice for his character and everything he represents.
(i did my best to like articulate my thoughts but hopefully this makes at least a bit a sense)

It's my 2 year anniversary on Tumblr š„³
I barely even use this but yay!!!
Really saddened by the amount of people calling Miku a TWITTER girl??? Excuse me??? Miku is absolutely part of Tumblr culture and if you don't think so you haven't been here long enough
never use the phrase "let that sink in" in front of sans undertale. he will be like "ok" and open the nearest door and there WILL be a sink and he WILL let it in
oh absolutely. alternatively, he'll just start sinking into the floor
every time theres a new bad tv show or movie people act like its the end of the world you guys need to learn about the not watching shit method iāve been successfully employing the not watching shit method for years
As much as I love that JK Rowling is being shredded for her transphobia, I'm begging y'all as a trans man to acknowledge that the fucking Hogwarts Legacy game is fucking antisemitism personified.
Jewish people are very often erased from this shit already, ACKNOWLEDGE that the entire game's premise is about it. Jesus fuck.
