References are love, references are life

Cleaning up my files and forgot that I had all these wing studies from circa. 2015 so thought, y’know what, I don’t need to hold onto these, so have this as a little gift from me to whomst ever needs some quick wings for their OC’s, AU’s, and Art.

That ol’ chart of mine makes the rounds online periodically and it drives me crazy because it’s frankly not very good. So, I finally got around to remaking it.

I doubt this will get anywhere near as popular, but I wanted to make it.

Good reference for animation, comics, and for visualizing phonetics!

Lately I've been missing the animation software I used to have access to, so I went looking for alternatives, and guys OpenToonz has so many features??

This is definitely a bit rough, but it's 100% due to me being rusty and not due to the program. I'm so excited to have animation capability again! :D

Please share this!!!!! As you resident vitiligan and fellow artist I am here to educate people on how to properly create a character with vitiligo and other things to keep in mind about the disorder.

Only 1% of the entire world’s population has vitiligo but I see so many artists making characters with it when they sometimes don’t even know what vitiligo is and pass it off as “skin pigmentation”. Like— what does that even mean??? XD

It’s not an aesthetic and it won’t get you “diversity points” so stop romanticizing vitiligo!

[kurowrites]

Honestly very happy to see this, especially the part that emphasises that skin tone has nothing to do with the likeliness of developing vitiligo. You can be as white as snow and have it.

I don't trust artists who say that black people's hair is too hard to draw

[p-trichor]

okay let me clarify

if you're able to do a decent job drawing open straight hair, then an afro will not be a problem for you

braids are harder, yes, but so is any other intricate hairstyle. you're gonna struggle with an elegant, pretty, twisted chignon just as much.

so if its just the intricacy of the hairstyle that's the issue, and you only ever draw open hair, afros and afro puffs should be easy enough

the only reason you feel like it's harder is because you need a reference. the reason why you don't need a reference for white people is because a) they're all over the media you consume, meaning you see them a lot and b) you've been drawing them for a long time and know how their features would look.

it will take some practice before you can do it without a reference, but black people's natural hair is not inherently harder to draw

I watch an artist named Temi Danso's youtube channel for a lot of help when it comes to dealing with realism, especially with black subjects

In pretty much all of her videos she explains the process she uses when doing the skin, hair, eyes, lips, and clothing of her subject. I think it's a good place to look for help doing black peoples' hair and I'd 100% reccomend it
