Read some actual comics, Kyle.

Superman is an incredibly kind and tender character. (If he’s not being written that way, then he’s not being written well.) He inspires hope not just through his heroics, but also through his kindness toward other people. That’s his thing. Don’t you DARE call tenderness a “weakness.” Get your toxic masculinity the hell away from me and go read a badly written Batman comic if you want a “tough” male character.

[krinsbez]

Why on EARTH would someone think Superman being tough and Superman being kind are contradictory?

[seriousfic]

Is that a Snyder fan telling someone that “you’re wrecking the character, create something new instead of making an interpretation that’s so off-base”?

Because Snyder is the guy who wanted the Greek Gods to all be Kryptonians and the Amazons to be descended from them.

Where's that comic where Superman comforts Billy?

[da-boy-o-kultur]

I saw that tweet by Gunn and thought “So, like regular Superman?”

Kyle sounds like Lex Luthor who believed that Superman doesn’t have a Civilian identity because such a godlike being would see it as beneath him. Also here you go @simon-newman​

These few pages legit make me cry

[ophilosoraptoro]

That's not just for acting, that's life advice. Seriously deep wisdom right there.

[sunder-the-gold]

Only the strong can be gentle, because the weak don’t have the option of causing harm. Gentleness is the virtue that Superman can best exemplify, by being so strong that the only thing stopping him is himself.

[siryouarebeingmocked]

Kyle also admitted he’s not really a comic reader, so he’s extra stupid.

[hinochi-darenimo]

Not that I'm agreeing with Kyle but James Gunn saying that is a red flag to me. It says to me he doesn't know that a Superman "you want to hug" is the rule and not the exception. Granted that's just based on the headline alone so if there's more to the story then let me know.

James Gunn Wants a Superman Who Has ‘Humanity’ and Is ‘Somebody You Want to Hug’

James Gunn told Variety Thursday night that his upcoming DC Studios movie, “Superman: Legacy” hasn’t found its leading man just yet — but th

>“It’s gotta be somebody who has the kindness and the compassion that Superman has and be somebody who you want to give a hug.”

He gets it.

People tend to forget that the past few superman movies were what they were.

Mohamed Bzeek, a Libyan-born Muslim, has been fostering terminally ill children for the past two decades. Since then, he has buried 10 children, some of who have died in his arms.

One of his foster children is a six-year-old girl who has a rare brain defect. As a result, she’s deaf, blind, and her arms and legs are paralysed. “I know she can’t hear, can’t see, but I always talk to her,” he said. “She has feelings. She has a soul. She’s a human being.” He took this young girl under his wing when she was just one month old. Mohamed’s biological son, Adam, was born in 1997 with brittle bone disease and dwarfism.

The DCFS said that Mohamed is the man they always call when they need to find a placement for a shock child. “He’s the only one that would take a child who would possibly not make it,” said a DCFS coordinator. In fact, he’s the only foster parent in the country that is known to take terminally ill children.

After being inspired by Mohamed’s story, somebody set up a gofundme. Click here to donate.

For anyone who wants a free pose-able human reference for drawing

The other day I came across this awesome program by accident (I don’t even remember what I was actually searching for, but on the several times I’ve looked for a program like this I’ve had no luck). It’s cool enough that I wanted to share it.

It’s called DesignDoll (website here) and it’s a program that lets you shape and pose a human figure pretty much however you want.

There’s a trial version with no expiration date that can be downloaded for free, as well as the “pro license” version priced at $79. I’ve only had the free version for two days so far, so I’m not an expert and I haven’t figured out all of the features yet, but I’ve got the basics down. The website’s tutorials are actually pretty helpful for the basics, as well. 

Here’s the page for download, which has a list of the features available in both versions.

There are three features the free version doesn’t have:

Can’t save OBJ files for export

Can’t download models and poses from Doll Atelier (a sharing site for users; note that the site is in Japanese, though)

It can’t load saved files

The third one means that if you make a pose, save it, and close the program, you can’t load that pose/modified model later. You have to start with the default model. I found that out when I tried to load a file from the day before (this is why reading is important…). Whether saving your modifications (and downloading models and poses) is worth $80 is up to you. 

But, the default model is pretty nice and honestly if all you’re looking for is a basic pose reference it should work fairly well as it is. Here’s what it looks like:

There’s a pose tag that lets you drag each joint into place and rotate body parts. The torso and waist can be twisted separately, and it seems like everything pretty much follows the range of movement it would have on an actual human.

Even the entire shoulder area is actually movable along with the joint! See, like how the scapular area of the back raises with the arm:

The morphing tag is one of the coolest features, in my opinion. It lets you pick and choose from a library of pre-set forms for the head, chest, arms, legs, etc. It has some more realistic body shapes in addition to more anime-like ones. Don’t like the options there? Mix a few to get what you want! Each option has a slider that lets you blend as much or as little as you want into the design. 

So you, too, can create beautiful things like kawaii Muscle-chan!!

The scale tag lets you mess with the proportions and connection points of different joints. This feature combined with the morphing feature not only allows more body shape variations, but it also means that you can do things like make a more digitigrade model if you want. (The feet only have an ankle joint, but for regular human poses that’s all that you really need, so whatever.)

Or you can make a weird chubby alien-like thing with giant hands and balloon tiddies if that’s more your thing.

The ability to pose hands to the extent it allows is far more than I could have hoped for from a free program. Seriously, you can change the position of each finger joint individually, as well as how spread out the fingers are from each other. Each crease on the diagram below is a point of movement, and the circles are for spread between fingers. 

And to make it a bit more convenient, there’s a library of pre-set hand poses you can pick from as well, and then change the pose from that if you like. 

In both versions, you can also import OBJ files from other places for the model to hold, like if you wanted to have them hold a sword or something.

Basically, this program is awesome and free and you should totally check it out if you want a good program for creating pose references.

[thebookskeeper]

I just wanted to add a little more to this. If you have trouble figuring out how light sources work in your drawings this also allows you to choose where to have a light source.

That shaded ball on the left is your light source. You can see how moving the point changed the shadow cast.

Oh and all those other nifty looking things in that bottom bar there, yeah it’s what you think. You can change the model color to one of these presets or even customize your own palette.

Plus for all you lovely people who want something a little more simplified to use as a pose reference

You can turn your model into the classic wire frame.

The burned tower was once a breathtaking sight, built as a symbol of the friendship between people and Pokémon.

When the fire struck, all but three unknown Pokémon were able to escape the flames. They died amongst the tower’s debris, succumbing to the smoke and embers.

It was only after the fire was killed that the townspeople of Ecruteak City were able to grieve the charred, lost bodies of the deceased Pokémon.

They say that during that tragic moment of mourning was when the darkened sky was suddenly brought alight.

A mighty, bird-like beast appeared, their very presence seeming to clear the smoke from the sky. They cast their shadow upon Ecruteak City, the beast so large that they blocked out the sun like an eclipse. But their vibrant feathers reflected the sunlight like crystal prisms, and the burned tower was bathed in the light of the most beautiful rainbow.

No one can quite explain how Ho-Oh was able to give life to the deceased Pokémon. But Ho-Oh’s rainbow is mighty, and the Pokémon were imbued with this power. Whether it was some sort of legendary evolution, or simply the price of resurrection, may never be known.

What we do know, however, is that the light of Ho-Oh’s rainbow was so vibrant, so gorgeous, and so pure, even the three Pokémon who had perished within the flames reared their heads to gaze upon Ho-Oh.

All beheld Ho-Oh and the three Pokémon as they witnessed the ashes of the tower rise and breathe.

These three Pokémon were undoubtably powerful.

And although it was a gift Ho-Oh had given, it is common for us to fear the unknown.

The villagers did not welcome the resurrected Pokémon. They reacted out of fear, and violence ensued.

But the Pokémon did not fight back. They simply turned their backs and ran off into the wild.

They were not afraid of the villagers. They were ashamed.

Ashamed that the townsfolk mourned their deaths but threatened their lives.

Disappointed that the people of Ecruteak City had taken Ho-Oh’s gift so ignorantly, Ho-Oh took their leave as well. Thus marked the day that the race of man lost Ho-Oh’s respect.

Ho-Oh was never again seen by the eyes of man. According to the elders of Ecruteak, Ho-Oh will only appear once more to a trainer whose heart is gold and soul is silver, to a pure being who can redeem the people of Johto.

Perhaps one day, such a trainer will finally appear.

My interwebz is down so I figured I’d go ahead and post this up. I’m really proud of this. For my Screen Design class, we had to take a fairytale and retell it in however we wanted in storyboard form. I chose the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Just as a heads-up, I’ve replaced the bears with Ursa Major/Ursa Minor, the constellation based on a bear.

I could always tell the story myself, but I figured I should let the art do the talking and only answer questions if you’re curious about it. The only hint I’ll give is to pay attention to the faces of the characters. ;D

This sucker took me 3 days to work on. I’m dead, man. ;_;

Finished the Diamonds and their Pearls! The illustration with them all together was a massive file, so the image quality may not be great since I scaled it down to post. I really loved the season finale and the diamonds are some of my favorite characters! Which one is your fave?
