just a reminder that while rocky is adorable, he's also a genius engineer who is grace's equal. he isn't a pet. saying rocky is like grace's pet is like saying that spock was kirk's pet. that would be insane to say. rocky not looking human doesn't lessen his intelligence.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Leave people who have weird/creepy pets alone ffs. Stop commenting on photos they post saying you wanna puke because their pet isn’t a cuddly kitten. Stop threatening to kill people’s pets because you have a phobia of them good god. Do you know how much of a freak you sound when you say shit like “oh if I was anywhere near that tarantula I would stomp it to death.” on some ones photos of their PETS. You sound like an entitled ass if you think it’s appropriate and justified to kill something for existing just because it makes you uncomfortable. Some people have legitimate serious phobias of dogs but if they were like hey I’m gonna fucking light your dog on fire and kill it you would think they were cruel. It’s so incredibly rude to insult some ones pet that they love and care for because it makes you uneasy. I see this all the time when people post reptiles, tarantulas/spiders, or rats. Less so on the reptiles (unless it’s a snake) but definitely any animal that’s considered a “pest” species. If it upsets you then learn to deal with that anxiety in a constructive way instead of being an aggressive fuckin weirdo. Grow up. Unfollow them, or keep scrolling. 🙄 Also applies to in real life situations as well.

random question..but how do you animate hair?? as in specifically like mariza's (i think thats her..their??? name?) water hair, with how flowy it is-- i have an oc whose hair is meant to move around like shes in water but i got no clue how to animate that so yeah-

Idk how to words so I hope these visuals would help sdfghjk For the sitting animation I actually used CSP’s liquify tool to mess around with the movement but this is how I usually do it:

I start with 2 keyframes. After drawing the first one I make sure the “bumps” in the second one are in different spots to get that movement

Then I added in-betweens so they would flow together

and then added some more in-betweens to make it smoother

sometimes the flow might not look right so you could always go back a frame to fix a thing or two :0
