Oops

a crappy Tumblr art blog that has a Twitter now

[theartingace]

centaurs are enough of a pain to draw on their own, lets add interactions to the mix! I'm generally trying to get better at figures interacting in a way that feels solid, cause who doesn't want more snuggles in the world 💜

Hey so

the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like. 

So you know. 

This might be the real one, y’all.

HEY ARTISTS!

Do you design a lot of characters living in not-modern eras and you’re tired of combing through google for the perfect outfit references? Well I got good news for you kiddo, this website has you covered! Originally @modmad made a post about it, but her link stopped working and I managed to fix it, so here’s a new post. Basically, this is a costume rental website for plays and stage shows and what not, they have outfits for several different decades from medieval to the 1980s. LOOK AT THIS SELECTION:

OPEN ANY CATEGORY AND OH LORDY–

There’s a lot of really specific stuff in here, I design a lot of 1930s characters for my ask blog and with more chapters on the way for the game it belongs to I’m gonna be designing more, and this website is going to be an invaluable reference. I hope this can be useful to my other fellow artists as well! :)

Did you find this helpful? If you’re able, maybe buy me a coffee please? :D

The creator of the original, the animal reference tool, made their own human reference tool which allows you to search based on different body parts and poses!

hi there! I've just gone through some of your stuff about centaurs and I'm kinda loving it lol. one thing that's always bothered me about centaurs though is how do they run? how do they gallop? because if you look at how a horse holds itself while running its very different from how a human would. and also why would the centaur do with its arms? how do centaurs minimize wind resistance with their awkward bodies? I am confusion in this regard

(Another from Anon:) heyy ive recently been into centaurs but there's something i can't wrap my head around, how do they run? how does the human part move? does it Naruto run? where do the arms go? are they still? so many questions-

Glad you’re enjoying them thank you! But Centaurs definitely have a strong case of “What do I do with my hands” which is why I tend to put things in their arms when I draw them haha But if they’re just running I imagine they would hold their arms like we do while running-

Which is half-crooked! It helps absorb the bounce of the run and makes your arms more mobile to help counter-balance the movement! I imagine centaurs wouldn’t need it as much as us bipedal messes to for counterbalancing the stride, but it still feels more natural.

Also it plays into my thoughts on centaur babies that their arms are pulled into a tucked up position for up to the first year or so by tendons that loosen as they age, which helps them be a little less unwieldy while they grow into their horse bodies for counterbalance. And even adult centaurs will return to that habit when startled or nervous as a self-soothing gesture!

[theartingace]

Alright you bunch of hooligans, since 90+% of comments were “what about Naruto run” enjoy the consequences of your actions

There’s a website where you can learn ASL (American Sign Language) on your own, free and it’s a 31 Day program! The woman on there, her name is Rochelle Barlow, she runs the site and she actually is a homeschool teacher and teaches ASL. I am passing this on to some of you guys cause most of y’all on here is open-minded and curious and it is something important to learn.

I truly believe this site is helpful for some people who can not afford to going to ASL classes, or someone like me that just enjoys learning something new. This site will help with that. Once you sign up you will put in your email address and Rochelle sends you emails on tips on how to sign, gives you practice sheets, and gives you your weekly videos. And its all online. No need to paying for anything. (Unless if you want to she has something very different to this program) 

IMO and yes, this site is really amazing and is important because you never know if someone who is deaf or HOH needs help, if you end up losing your hearing ability this is something you will at least have on the back of your head, and it is just like any other language and should be taught.

EASY MANGA BACKGROUND TUTORIAL

You’ll need a building design planning app or program to use this method. Along with simple photo effects.

Step one: design your background with the app or program of your choice. I personally use Planner 5D. Position the picture where you want it and take a screenshot.

Step two: open the screenshot in a photo editor of your choice. I personally use the one that came with my samsung tablet in the gallery app. Choose effects.

In effects, you will find the Magic Pen effect. It will highlight all the outlines needed for a simple manga background.

Step three: Save that picture and then go back into effects. This time choose the Negative effect. It will revert the picture to a lighter tone while coloring in the outlines previously bordered.

Step four:  Save it and go back into effects. This time choose the Cartoon effect. This will thicken and darken those colored lines and shaded areas.

Step five: There will still be some leftover color, so save and go into the tone category this time. Remove all saturation from the picture.

Step seven: Save and crop any unwanted pieces out of the picture. Save once more and you’re done.

And there you have it! Now you can use this method for any design you choose and from any angle of your choice. Enjoy!
