Our feature tutorial/artist today is this page on the FORMS of the PALM, by the talented @taco1704! Note how the MAIN PADS of the palm create a FLAT, TRIANGULAR CENTRE. Understanding this formation helps especially with FORESHORTENING, and OVERLAP at shallow angles! #manga #anime

Okay, but like, why even have tiers then? If ya wanna be Tubi, be Tubi.

Basically what I've always thought of human made art: There is beauty in the little imperfections of man-made things.

If you're not creating it yourself you're not an artist.

Hi! I'm trying to get a few things replaced and or fixed and also maybe improve my life circumstances a bit. So if you're interested in clowns, weird music, experimentation with website stuff or you just think I'm cool- Support me on Patreon/Ko-Fi or via Commissions! spacedorky.com/support

Tried using a program called Krita as an art program since cutting off Adobe. It's DENSE, but it basically do just about anything that most of Adobe's products can do, and it's free! Check it out #art #WIP #OCart

Voter suppression doesn’t beat organized people. Learn your state’s deadlines. Check your registration, then get your people to check theirs too. Volunteer with groups getting voters registered & trained as poll workers.Fighting back is a to-do list, not a mood. #LoserTrumpsElectionLies #USDemocracy

RIP British fantasy and sci-fi illustrator, modeller, and art director John Blanche. This fantastic artist was especially well-known for his work on Warhammer (including 40K, etc). He retired from work at Games Workshop three years ago only. He was 77.

RIP to John Blanche, the best to ever do it. Before Warhammer was even Warhammer he understood what it was: weird, gross, unsettling, maximalist.

Our feature tutorial/artists today is this brilliant page on HANDS with FANNED FINGERS by the talented @taco1704! Thinking of RELATIV ANGLES in PROFILE first helps makes sense of the knuckle positions when FORESHORTENING. #anime #manga #gamedev #illustration #draw #ART

So this is sort of a weird thing- But I've been trying to figure out where I'd place myself music wise...?Also just recognizing that I really can't call myself a beginner at all anymore. I certainly don't feel professional either tho... IDK (This is an excuse for me to post the thing I just made.)

We're coming up on the 20th anniversary of YGO Abridged but there's a decent chance I'll be kicked out of my home before that, so I'm gonna be streaming a 20th anniversary celebration to YouTube in the coming days while also trying to raise money to hopefully prevent that from happening. *sigh*

So I guess Pete Doctor didn’t listen to a DAMN thing Hayao Miyazaki said to him eh?…

Pixar CCO Pete Docter says they removed gay elements from ‘ELIO’ after finding some parents didn’t want entertainment forcing conversations with their kids they weren’t ready for. “We’re making a movie, not hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy.” (via www.wsj.com/business/med...)

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this page on SIMPLIFYING HANDS, by the talented @miyuliart! Note that we clearly see the FORMS FIRST, then simplify keeping in mind the PROPORTIONS and OVERLAPS so that even when highly stylised, we still have a hand which OCCUPIES 3D SPACE!

It give me a little bit of dark solice to know that inevitably, he's slowly rotting and dying. That in the end, what's "him" will die long before his body does.

We really need to double down on outwardly stating our work does not contain AI. We're seeing it in movie credits and books, we have to start putting it on things we make and pressuring others to label their work as human made, and normalize that as much as we can, I think. stuff like this maybe

I saw a post this morning somewhere about trying to draw an upturned chin from below and yeah - that's a tough one! You need to rely a lot on shading the form rather than lines for this usually. Beards can be a nice cheat. 😋 Here's a few refs to try today if you want the challenge. ⭐

If you try to force your autistic child to take a quack cure so they stop being autistic, then don't be surprised when they spend the rest of their life relating to you as a person who only loves them conditionally.
