Have you ever wanted to make your own enamel pin or embroidered patch? How about a sticker or a shirt? I used to work for companies that produced these items, and obviously made tons of my own designs. I wanted to share my knowledge with everyone that was scared to take the first step. I made a post that covers these common questions: What kind of product is best for my art? What kinds of options are available for these products? What company should I use? What is the ordering process like? What about shipping? Where should I sell online? Should I crowdfund or not? Do you have any tips for self promotion? Check it out here <3 http://kingstoncreative.net/ultimate-guide-turning-art-product/ (It’s pretty BIG, I didn’t want to recreate it on tumblr because omg this took forever to make) Anyways, I hope this helps some people! <3 Photo credits: Fuzzy Shark patch Courage Patch & Hedgehog pin Doggo Sticker

Photography for Beginners

Note– The tumblr editor  scrambled some of my paragraphs upon importing, but I think I fixed most of it! Let me know if you see some messed up errors. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this post! It’s a little long! 

Thank you to @thelittlestprincess7 & @sashakazanov for responding to my question on @art-res. 

I’m by no means a pro, but I have worked on my artistic photography on both DSLR & compacts for over 4-5 years.

Step 1: Purchase a cheap DSLR/Compact where you can access manual mode. I personally have the Canon T3i & the Sony RX100 (the first version), both are great cameras and now more affordable because they are older models. Of course, you can start with a $2k camera, but that’s pretty overkill, especially when you’re starting out and maybe on a budget.

On Amazon –short cut link to cameras & gear–: (If you use this affiliate links to purchase a camera, you can help support Art-Res & help me pay for college!)Or your other favorite retailer! Some places will price match as well, which is awesome.I

If you decided to get a DSLR/compact, you also need to get an SD card to store the images. I use class 10 because it’s fast enough for video and has good transfer speeds. They’re pretty cheap, so I don’t recommend going slower than class 10, if you can help it. 

To get a cheap camera, consider going refurbished, used (without too much use, otherwise the shutter might die on you quickly), or buying an older model. 

OR: just use your phone and access pro mode/get an app where you can access manual mode. Phone cameras have gotten good lately!

To really learn how to photograph properly, you want to get off of auto mode and switch to manual mode, aperture priority mode(my personal favorite) or shutter priority mode.

Experiment a little now, just change some stuff and see what happens. A little experimentation goes a long way in learning what does what. You might be a little overwhelmed at first by all the dials and controls, but it’s alright! Just tweak some stuff and experiment. Live view will be really helpful when you’re first starting out. 

Now for a bit more guidance on what does what on your camera. Exposure depends on 3 things: shutter speed, aperture, and ISO (exposure sensitivity)

Shutter speed, which is displayed by a fraction, ie, 1/80, ¼, 1/2000, determines how fast your camera closes the shutter, or basically, the time out of a second (fraction!) the sensor is exposed to the light.

 To prevent camera shake, a useful rule of thumb is to take the focal length (For example, your kit lens, 18-55mm lens, is set to around 55 ) take the number 55  & put your focal length at 1/60 or above.  Or you might not need this tip if you have sniper photography skills. 

Slower shutter speeds blur motion. Good for motion trails, light trails, blurring waterfalls.

Faster shutter speeds freeze motion. Good for action shots of your cat or dog.

Aperture, which is measured in f-stops, determines how wide open your lens hole is. Yes, the blades actually will open up. You can take a look.

Lower f-stop number, ie, f/1.2, f/1.4, f/1.8, means your lens is wider open, and thus, letting in more light.

Lower f number also yields a more thin depth of field, meaning only a thin plane of the image is sharp, while rest of the frame is blurred out, and then you get the lovely bokeh effect.ex: 

following ex w  the blurry background

Higher f-stop number, ie, f/8, f/11, f/22, means your lens is more closed and letting in less light.

Yields a larger/wider depth of field, which means more of your background will be in focus

Great for landscapes! 

the following ex: f/11

Advanced note: if you’re using a macro lens, you want a high enough f number that enough of the subject is focused. Or you can focus stack, but that’s a bit above the basics. 

ISO - with this, you can increase your sensor’s sensitivity to light, though higher numbers (ie, ISO 1600 & up) often results in more noise, or grainy color/luminance artifacts.

All three of these variables work together, which is sort of complicated. If you use aperture priority mode or shutter priority mode, you can adjust either aperture or shutter speed, and then the camera will automatically set the other variable in order to create the correct exposure. You can also set ISO or have the camera automatically calculate it. I recommend experimenting with this to learn if you are overwhelmed with manual mode.

For general shooting, I like aperture priority mode because manual mode makes it harder to quickly react to rapidly changing light conditions and action. However, for some shots where I am looking for a particular effect, I go manual! (Macro shots, waterfall shots, exposure/focus stacking, and anything with tricky lighting)

A practical example of what goes on in my head for indoor shot of something, which is sort of low light. 

I want to take a picture of this small statue, and I want a blurry background (shallow depth of field). That means I want a low f/ for a wider lens hole so more light can come in. That’s great because I don’t need to push my ISO too too far, 800 will do. It won’t be too noisy at this level, but too much lower will force me to use a super slow shutter speed to expose the picture correctly, which will result in a blurry image because of camera shake. The focal length of my lens is at 50, so now I am going to put my shutter at 1/60. 

Metering – the way exposure is determined by the camera, examples include spot metering (measure a small area), center weighted average, or multiple zone (matrix/evaulative/etc) metering.

Experiment with these and how they interact with different lighting conditions.

Spot metering is useful for high contrast scenes

Average metering is great for landscapes because it takes into account both the sky and the landscape.

There is a lot of other terminology to cover, but for now, I think this is a good start for the absolute fundamentals. I hope this helped!

I also wrote a post explaining RAW vs JPG, if you’re interested in learning about that!

Thanks for reading! I hope it helped!

Advice for girls: buy skinny jeans in the boy’s section

They’re more comfortable, still form fitting, and best of all: THE POCKETS. THEY HAVE ACTUAL POCKETS.

don’t believe me? look:

these are boys pants, and they look just as good on me as any other skinny jeans I own

See that phone? I’m going to put it in the pocket. Must be so small right??

Ah yes, girl pants length. Probably can’t fit any further than that-

what? what’s this?

Good god. Oh good lord in heaven. This is blasphemous.

Look at how much room is still there. There’s chaos in the streets. Babies are crying. Fashion designers are screaming out of fear of the unknown.

Buy your pants in the boys section, girls. Live in the beautiful world you deserve where you can fit shit in your pocket.

[prismatic-bell]

Curvy ladies: Men’s dress pants have more room in the butt. I don’t know why, I only know that all my dress pants for work are off the rack in the men’s department in Target. Literally nobody has noticed, except a couple of my younger coworkers who’ve asked me–you guessed it–”oh my god, where did you find pants with pockets?”

Tall ladies: men’s pants are easier to find in longer lengths than women’s pants are.

Trans ladies: Wanna get on this gravy train, but afraid people will misgender you for wearing clothes off the men’s racks? Step one: tell me who these people are and I will punch them in the face. Step two: if it doesn’t make you dysphoric, please don’t feel obligated to wear pants off the women’s racks if pants off the men’s racks are more comfy/useful to you. I’m a cis woman who’s been wearing pants from the boys’ section and, later, the men’s section, ever since I hit puberty and in thirteen years maybe, maybe half a dozen people have noticed. And it’s always women asking the oh-my-god-pockets question. You’re all good. <3

Fat ladies: you will pay the same for a pair of 42x32 jeans as for a pair of 34x32 jeans, instead of having to pay some kind of Fat Penance Tax by way of being in the “plus size” section. Also, did I mention more room in the butt?

Ladies concerned about modesty: For obvious reasons, there is more crotch space in men’s pants. Embrace it and enjoy a life free from cameltoe worries and spontaneous labia-wedgies when you squat down.

All ladies: I swear to god the waists in women’s pants these days are made specifically to fit exactly nobody so that no matter what you do, your underwear will show. Men’s pants do not do this. The waists sit where they’re supposed to and will actually lay flat against the small of your back instead of flopping open to show your unmentionables to the world. If you want hiphugger jeans, buy one leg-length too small and one waist-size too large and let them hang, and they still won’t accidentally show your undies. Men’s pants will last longer. They cost less, in a lot of cases. Embrace the men’s jeans. Buy the men’s jeans. Stop buying shitty flimsy women’s jeans that wear out in six months.

AND FINALLY: to determine your size in men’s pants, take a tape measure around your waist at its smallest point. This is your waist size and will be the first number in a pair of men’s pants. Next, take the tape measure from about an inch below your no-no squares parts, and run it to your ankle. (You may need a friend or parent to help with this.) This is your inseam length, and will be the second number on a pair of men’s pants. Men’s and boys’ pants are tailored the same way, so if you have trouble finding your waist size in men’s, hop over to the boys’ section. Feel no shame. If they’d give us decent fucking pants we wouldn’t have to steal theirs, right?

[thewinterotter]

Listen you guys, I am SO MAD ABOUT THIS. I’ve seen this first post before, and recently my mom said, “Hey, did you see that post on Tumblr about shopping for jeans in the men’s department?”

And I said yeah, I’d seen it, I’ve been through the Trying To Fit Clothes On My Stupid Body wars, and this post really only applied to skinny jeans because they’re so stretchy. It couldn’t possibly work for regular jeans! I have TRIED SO MANY TIMES. I’ve always shopped in the men’s department because women’s clothes are like 90% bullshit and 10% fake pockets.

But I hadn’t seen the second addition, which gave me more hope, and I decided to just try on a few pairs when I was at Old Navy the other day. They have some “classic” jeans with no give to them at all, which is what I was trying on years ago that convinced me it just wasn’t possible. (Jeans in my price range didn’t really come with any form of stretch back then, as I recall. Textile technology is bad-ass.) But these days they mostly have “flex” jeans that have some give to them. (Women’s jeans are usually labeled “stretch” but apparently men’s have to be “flex” like they need stretchy garments so their HUGE MUSCLES don’t just TEAR THEIR CLOTHES!)

This was totally an impulse decision so I couldn’t measure myself, but I grabbed a few sizes based on what I vaguely thought my measurements probably were and decided it couldn’t possibly be worse than the endless cycle of regret, dissatisfaction, and recrimination that is trying on women’s clothing.

The first pair I tried on fit like a DREAM. I’ve been gaining weight lately which is a whole separate nightmare (mainly centered around “but I don’t WANT to buy new bras, this is bullshit!”) and the reason I need to buy new jeans because nothing freaking fits me, and I was sure these wouldn’t either, but DAMN. They’re the best pair of jeans I own. Twice as thick, pockets twice as big, legs nice and loose (they don’t even sell women’s jeans with a cut remotely similar to this), and contrary to my super dumb opinion from before this experience, they’ve got my plenty of room for all my womanly curvey bits. AND because they’re actually a relaxed fit instead of trying to cling to every inch of me, they don’t show my weight nearly as much as my women’s jeans do, they’re easier to move in, they’re not constantly inching down my hips with every move I make, and overall they just make me feel GOOD about how I look which is a strange new sensation I could definitely get used to.

It’s like a miracle. I want to cry both out of joy and because of all the shitty jeans now filling my closet when I could have been buying comfortable, relaxed, pocket-having men’s jeans all these years. Many blessings to the posters above, may your crops grow and your cows give milk and your jeans hold all the gadgets you desire.

[thatoneartyishperson]

Also: men’s pants have constant sizes that are based off of actual measurements instead of the women’s whatever-the-company-wants-to-make-the-size sizes. They’re far more reliable and your size will translate to other brands.

[inconspicuouslyevil]

@get-dunkd-on help me remember this for our next Goodwill run lmao

[fenland-witch-deactivated202005]

I HAVE to try some men’s jeans. Sick of these super skinny show everything always having to be hitched up no pocket crap jeans!

[k-lionheart-deactivated20171126]

Honestly signal boost. Because imagine this actually starts some kind of ludicrous pants revolution that ends up causing women’s pants fashion company’s sales to tank, absolutely forcing them to realize men’s pants have always had the right idea and start doing that instead of this bullshit. Like just imagine. And don’t just signal boost this. Tell every woman you know. Tell every trans friend and every curvy friend out there. You see a lady down the street, stop her and tell her you’ve discovered a new gospel and it’s purchasing men’s pants. With the way women spread information when we’re excited, the mentioned scenario could actually be hella achievable

[akreliadeklavesht-deactivated20]

PRAISE THE UNIVERSE I FOUND THIS POST AGAIN

[what-even-is-thiss]

Guys. Gals. Non binary pals. As a trans ftm person who just recently started shopping in the men’s department and has gigantic hips full of dysphoria let me tell you a thing.

Athletic cut jeans have more room in the butt. I repeat. Athletic cut jeans have more room in the butt. You don’t need to go to the dress pants to fit your lovely curvy self in there. Go to the regular section or big and tall if you’re a bit taller and/or wider, and there’ll be a little section of athletic style jeans. They’ve still got the giant blessed pockets and the room in the crotch and if you’re really curvy with a large bone structure like I am you can get yourself some quality pants.

This has been an addition by your local nb trans dude. Thank you for your time.

HOLY FREE ART PROGRAMS BATMAN

I’ve had this list sitting around for a while (in case I ever want to try something new) and I thought I’d share it, because why the hell not, everybody loves free stuff. I’ve only used a couple, so for all I know these could be complete shit. BUT YOU NEVER KNOW, RIGHT?

*= available for both windows and mac os

GIMP * - Does a lot of the same stuff as Photoshop.

FireAlpaca * - Similar to Paint Tool Sai, so it’s a good alternative for Mac users.

Autodesk Sketchbook Copic Edition * - Simulates the look of copic markers.

MyPaint * - Basic stuff, nothing fancy.

Pinta * - Drawing program modeled after paint.NET.

Inkscape * - Vector/drawing program meant to be similar to Illustrator.

ArtRage * - Digital painting program; you can get the trimmed down version for free or buy the full version with more features.

Sumo Paint * - In-browser drawing app.

DAZ Studio * - Some sort of 3D model poser thing.

Pencil * - Software for animating.

SketchUp * - Tool for making 3D models. Looks handy for stuff like architectural drawings.

Blender * - Pretty popular 3D software.

escape motions * - Some browser apps, fun to fiddle with when you’re bored (the fluid fire simulation is pretty cool imo).

Twistedbrush (Pixarra) - Seems to be meant for replicating the look of traditional media.

Pixia/Phierha - A popular program in Japan, according to the website.

Krita - This was originally made for Linux and it looks like the developers haven’t ironed out all of the kinks in the Windows installer.

Artweaver - Another trimmed down free thing if you don’t want to buy the full program.

paint.NET - Pretty basic kit, probably good for simple stuff.

Project Dogwaffle - I’m not sure what this one is all about because I couldn’t stop laughing at the terrible website.

Speedy Painter - Lightweight digital painting program.

mtPaint - Originally made for pixel art; simple enough to run on older computers.

Chasys Draw IES - Supposed to be some sort of drawing+image editor thing.

PaintRibbon - Seems to be another plain old basic image editor.

DrawPlus - Looks like it’s made for graphic design and vector stuff.

SmoothDraw - I’m guessing this is a basic thing for people who don’t want to bother with complicated stuff.
