that little bud is precious to me I’m not very confident as an artist. I know I’m not very good either. So special thanks to those who support me and all my stuff <3

[shadowinkwarrior]

This is really important tho. Its very hard as an artist to get your own original work noticed, because fanart is simply much more wanted and looked for in general when it comes to people browsing/tumblring art. So for those people that love your own art and your own OC’s, it feels awesome to get a appreciation on that, even if its something thats as small as this.

This amazing technicolor castle has been abandoned for more than 20 years

The Castello di Sammezzano is a show-stopper, a jaw-dropper. Hidden away in the Tuscan hills of Northern Italy, this electrifyingly beautiful Moorish castle was built a whopping 400+ years ago in 1605, but for more than two decades, it’s been sitting empty, neglected, vulnerable to vandalism and to the elements.

There are 365 rooms in the Castello di Sammazzano, one for every day of the year. The Moroccan-style palatial villa is a labyrinthe of exquisitely tiled rooms, each one intricately unique. Originally built by a Spanish noble, Ximenes of Aragon in the 17th century, it wasn’t until the 19th century that the castle would find its arabian identity and be transformed into the etherial palace it resembles today.

You can read about the history here.

Why Krita is Awesome: A Collection of Reasons Why This Program is Worth Taking a Look At

Krita is a painting program that has been around for a while, and in the last few years, underwent major changes and improvements.  Because of these improvements, many artists are using it not just because it is free, but because it offers amazing features.  These are by no means all of the great things Krita has to offer, but simply some of my favorite features of the program.

1. The Brush Engines.

Yes, engines.  As in plural.  There are many.  And they all do different things.  There is no way you could possibly capture all of its possibilities with one screen shot, but here are just some of the possibilities. Along side standard round, square, and shape, and textured brushes, there are brushes that smear, blend, and create interesting abstract strokes.  There are brushes for filters, and one of my favorites, the Experiment Brush, which is basically a pre-filled lasso tool. 

Brushes also support weighted smoothing, or brush stabilizers.

This is incredibly useful for line art.  And while I do not usually use this feature, it is something that I feel many programs are lacking, such as Photoshop.

But its brushes aren’t the only thing about Krita with variety.

2. Color Selector Customization. 

Whether you prefer something basic, or something more complicated, Krita will likely have what youre looking for.  You are not likely to find yourself missing your other program’s color wheels.  There are even more options than this, and other color selectors.

Gotta love that customization.

Krita also has some great naviation tools.

3. On the fly rotation, zoom, and brush sizing.

With krita, zooming, rotating, and brush size scaling are all smooth, and dynamic with the use of hot keys.  These are features I miss when in other programs.  To zoom, Ctrl+Middle mouse button, hover over the screen to zoom in and out.  The same with shift rotates (press the ‘5’ key to reset rotation).  Holding down shift and draging your brush on the canvas dynamically changes its size, allowing you to see the change, and get the exact size you want without brackets. Brackets also work, if that’s what you are used to.  Krita also has highly customizable hot keys.

4. The Pop Up Pallet

The pop up pallet is a set of your 10 favorite brushes (which you can edit), and a built in color wheel that appears when you right click on the canvas.  It is incredibly useful for switching between those few brushes that you use in almost every picture.

5.  Real time, seamless tiles creation.

Pressing the W key in Krita will infinitely tile your canvas, and allow you to work real time on simple to complex tiled images.  You can zoom in and out to see how your tiles work form a distance, and paint freely to create seamless artwork easily, without having to check using filters and manually tiling. Very usefull for patterns, backgrounds, and games.

6. The Symmetry Tool

This one goes without saying, Krita supports both horizontal and vertical symmetry, along with a brush that is capable of radial symmtry with as many directions as you like.

Go nuts, kid.

There are many more reasons why this program is awesome.  And it is only going to get more awesome.  And the coolest thing about it, is that it is 100% free.  So go check it out!  There’s nothing to lose. Krita isn’t for everyone, it can be hard to get the hang of, and it is not meant for photo editing, it is a program completely focused on digital painting from start to finish. 

Give it a go and see if Krita is the program for you.

I don’t do tutorials usually, but I get asked about this a lot! I don’t think many people have thought of it.

[yamino]

I’ve use the same technique for patterns on curved surfaces before. It’s a good one!

[c-bedford]

Give me your character and I will turn them into a boss enemy.

Like, I’ll give them a cool weapon and some silly clothes and some name that strikes fear into the hearts of many. 

I guess just reblog this with something about them  attached to it , i dunno man.

Ahh this is too good an opportunity to pass up even if he doesn’t get picked. Also a really cool idea *A*

This is my character Belial a demon king in his humanoid appearance. He has wavy long white hair typically tied at the ends with pale skin and piercing pale green-yellow eyes with long eyelashes (especially the lower lashes). He commonly wears a jagged horned crown. He’s very prideful, stuck up and arrogant and expects to be worshipped by those who are beneath him (which is almost everyone in his opinion).

You can find more info and references here if you’re interested <: (feel free to incorporate the sigil into the design if you pick him)

Your replies are on the way, Tumblr

Just wanted to let you know that we’re putting the finishing touches on replies, and making sure they play nicely with everything else on this platform.

“Why did they go away? Why, staff, whyyyy?” Fair question. We had a gaggle of overlapping message-like systems—namely, asks, fan mail, reblogging with commentary, question posts (rare!), and, yes, replies. When we finally introduced actual instant messaging a couple months ago, we had a lot of untangling to do.

In order to make all these systems work together, we had to do some back-end retooling, which meant taking down replies for a bit. For longer than we expected. Sorry about that.

And we get it—replies fill a very particular need (and you were very clear about expressing that need). They’re a kind of super like. A way to fully express your feelings about a thing without expecting anything in response. A gift.

When they come back, they’ll be even better. People will be able to reply to your posts multiple times, and you’ll even be able to reply to your own posts. Simple changes, yes, but ones that open up lots of possibilities.

Best of all, we’ve laid the down the engineering and design groundwork for even more substantial improvements down the road. Replies will be able to develop side-by-side with messaging.

More to come, soon enough. We know you all miss replies. We hope you enjoy their imminent return.

Sariel, Angel of the Waning Moon

My body wanes and is distorted.

Smoke moves all around me (troublesome clouds),  and it’s as if I cease to exist.   I blink in and out of time and wonder if I can still be seen, when the light-of-seeing is denied even to me.

Do you still whisper at dusk, or cry out for me at midnight?  Do you still reach to pull yourself up into my light…? Or do you ebb as I wane? 

As if in response to my tired calls,  a wave crashes,  sounding out the end and beginning of dreaming. 

Then a song pours out over the ocean,  pulling me close and scattering my light, little as it is.

I pull myself deeper into the hood of night, feeling your fingers pulling at the edge of my mind. I am now content to wait,  here in the dark.

Knowing.
