I also sketched this Velos and Sirius idea! Couldn’t decided between the two directions and this one’s horny in a different way 😉 #sketchtober26

One fun inventory management thing I used once: before heading out to the dungeon, pay the upkeep fee on gear to equip it. Doesn't matter if you end up not using it, just putting on the armor or bringing the rope required the upkeep! To make it easy, it was just 1/10 of the cost of the thing.

My favorite behind-the-scenes Star Trek image is this one featuring Catherine Coulson, perhaps best known as the Log Lady from Twin Peaks, at work as an assistant DP on Wrath of Khan.

Maurice Noble was THE cartoon background designer. I love how much he was able to fuck around around and get so abstractly graphic, yet no one in the audience ever batted an eye because his designs lent so much personality and energy to the cartoons they were used in.

What's Opera, Doc? looks fantastic. Chuck Jones credited that to his artist Maurice Noble. Noble experimented with this cartoon and took big risks. "You will never do anything interesting if you don’t take chances," he argued. We explore what he did: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/why-whats-...

Always kind of thinking about Marisa Tomei's 3/4 length sleeve (?), mock neck (?), lightly shoulder-padded (?), floral catsuit from MY COUSIN VINNY so I sketched it.

So you’re telling me the movie about a sex-negative society that doesn’t engage with the inherent politics of that premise in any real way is sex-negative? I’m shocked!

Yes, that’s the problem

Went to an arcade in Halifax that had a framed portrait of Shigeru Miyamoto looking like he's about to be at the center of a murder mystery in the pacific northwest

Everyone coming on my feed and explaining to me that all is lost, I note what I have noted before, that there are no Negro Spirituals entitled, “Welp, I Guess It All Sucks and I Am Giving Up.”

Public Domain Art is the lifeblood of small tabletop rpgs, but it can be a nightmare trying to find the right art and license. This week, I’ve re-uploaded my old list from 2020 (with updates) of public domain websites. That's 500,000+ public domain paintings, photos, maps, and film. Link below 🔗👇

Catching up on @neverpo.st and the episode "What Happens When Search Goes Full AI" from the 25th was incredible. I've never listened to a show and gone "I can't wait to immediately relisten to this while taking notes and following attribution" until now. www.neverpo.st/what-happens...

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

Thread with a couple short scenes from a lesbian vampire story that I have kickin' around in the back of my head! This may be all that ever comes of it, but I still like em :] 1/4

Random little art tip i picked up. I normally draw poses torso first and would have a lot of issue placing the neck and head right. Basically if you draw a line right from the center of the head to the center of the torso, the neck will be the same size both sides of that line. It helps a lot

Read. Every. Dialogue. Line. Aloud.

Lilah Sturges@lilahsturges.com

Writers: what’s a solid piece of *craft* advice you wish you’d known sooner? Mine is this: when making writing decisions, always stop and ask yourself what is best for the SCENE. What are the scene’s goals? Does this sentence, this paragraph, this line of dialogue serve those goals? If not, fix it.

by the way- i'm looking to find more webcomics made by trans people, if that's you consider the replies on this post a free advertising space. i'm personally most into stuff targeted at an older/adult age group (vs. YA or children's media) but i'll try anything out

"The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight." I made a "Yellow Wallpaper" piece back in 2017, but I re-read the story over the weekend and wanted to try again. Much happier with this version 🖤

Okay first i would absolutely recommend Pen and Ink Drawing by Alphonso Dunn! A fantastic book that covers all the basics and ideas under pen inking and hatching. I love it
