tbh a lot of my advice boils down to “hey you know that terrible horrible looming thing you’re doing your best to avoid and distract and escape as much as possible but no matter what you do it just keeps looming and looming and ruining your life”

“just, fuckign, run straight at it screaming.”

"Racialised" is much better than PoC but I've been leaning a lot on the concept of racial markedness. Because that allows us to make statements like "the name Jamal is racially marked in USA". Rather than saying something like "Jamal is a PoC name", a nonsense statement, saying it's racially marked in USA allows us to contrast with societies like Albania or the Arab countries where the name Jamal is ordinary, thus unmarked.

It's a concept I've kind of imported from linguistic analysis; saying a speech pattern is more or less marked does not really allow us to avoid the subject of who's doing the marking. A statement like "womens' speech is more marked in Lakota" necessitates that we understand that it's the Lakota who are marking womens' speech. A foreigner can't tell the difference and probably doesn't understand why it would thus be weird to see a man using speech patterns associated with women, in the same way an Albanian wouldn't understand why USA people would think Jamal is a Black name.

You! You get it. In my view, if someone is saying "racialised" or "racially marked" without acknowledgement of context, they are doing it in a way that is gramatically incorrect.

Some things I found interesting about Rooster and Hangman's helmets in TG:M:

Rooster's helmet has a line crossing out all of the letters- this seems to nod to Hangman's helmet, which is a game of hangman

none of the letters used in the word "rooster" are in the word "hangman" hence why the letters are crossed out.

The font on Hangman's helmet is also pretty cool-

Look familiar?

The font is literally Bradley Hand

You cannot tell me these two do not have a deeper relationship- *cough* exes *cough*

Also- (remember this?)

They had to have had their helmets designed at the same time- I mean COME ON!

Cyclone breathes through his nose and keeps going. “The Navy is eager to know what exactly a fifth-gen is capable of, and to make sure their best pilots are prepared to face them again. Surely you understand this.” “Yes, sir,” Rooster and Hangman answer together. “Good,” Cyclone says. “Then you’ll also understand when I tell you that after your leave has elapsed, you two will be stationed here to help develop the new training program together.” --- Or: what happens when your cocky rival becomes your actual partner in life, mostly without your say-so.

I love how these are from an Unreality subreddit but to my eye they just read like regular Tumblr shitposts. Did we cross-pollinate or something

I got to make some color palettes for the best animation studio around, Studio Ghibli, to promote their newest and, sadly, last film When Marnie Was There. They’ve done Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and many other amazing films and are masters at using color.

I am very stoked that the kind people at LOVE featured the palettes as a brief retrospective. Check out their post and read a bit about each palette below.

When Marnie Was There Natural settings are highlighted in both palettes for when Marnie Was There. Each still’s location is vibrantly represented. From the yellows and bright greens in the forest to the bright blues and turquoises of the seascape, there is a clear intention to let the environment take center stage.

Ponyo One of the more boldly colorful and childlike films, Ponyo masterfully combines a multitude of bright colors fitting for its universe. There is also an inherent softness to the colors that helps them all blend together, despite their boldness.

Laputa Castle in the Sky The palette for this still from Castle in the Sky shows a versatile way to paint a night scene. The purple and blue hues are inviting but suggest depth, action and contrast nicely with the characters’ faces. The overall palette communicates night-time without overusing dark colors and blends purple hues effortlessly.

Princess Mononoke Based on primary colors, this still from Princess Mononoke feels bold and eye-catching. By putting the character of San front and center and setting a mood with the fiery bold background, this still effectively communicates emotion through its palette.

Spirited Away Spirited Away carefully combines dark and light hues and a contrast of colors to tell its story. The interior of the train feels cold and foreboding and uses darker tones of bright colors (reds, purples) to give the audience a sense of the unusual. The outside is vibrant and clear, using blue to create a peaceful and bright atmosphere.

Only Yesterday This still from Only Yesterday captures a mood through its use of color. The peaceful and beautiful setting is achieved by combining mostly blues, greens, and yellows in both the field and the sky, unifying the frame and reflecting a sense of peace.

I’m a character artist. I’m used to painting skin and hair and clothes... soft textures, basically. I found out the hard way that this approach does not work for rocks. Unless you want them to look like weirdly shiny flesh blobs instead 🤔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ That’s why I try to practice rendering other surfaces from time to time. These were drawn for last month’s challenge on painting gems and colorful rocks!
