I have been trying to learn how to draw SU characters for so long with no avail. Any tips, and/or tricks?

so, for me to really understand how to draw a character, it takes a lot of bad attempts. i’m talking dozens upon dozens. but if you really wanna speed up the process, you’re gonna want to take a character’s model and break it down. i’ll show u how with steven, since he’s simple.

first: let’s take a look at the boy.

first you want to break down the proportions. how many heads tall is he? how big are his hands/feet? how long are his limbs? what are the basic building blocks?

i can’t begin to express how much this series means to me.

so i’ll just say thank you ⭐

Visualization and Spell-Casting

A Tip for Secret Witches or Witches with Minimal Supplies

Introduction

When I was first starting out with witchcraft, I didn’t have that many fancy supplies or extravagant herb and crystal selections. Hell, there were times when I was lucky to just have a white candle.

So, being a baby-witch of about 14 years old, I tried to research ways that I could cast all of these cool spells I was finding on the internet without needed to spend the little money I was given from my parents on supplies. And then I was introduced to the Visualization method.

Spells and Ingredients

Now, before I go into the details of it, let’s look at why spells even have ingredients or supplies. Each ingredient or item serves a purpose. They are a catalyst for your energy. They are a way for you to focus your energy. Rosewater, for example, is often used in love spells because people associate roses with love. So, when you use it, your mind (and your intent) basically go “okay, this is going to boost the possibility of drawing in love with this spell, since this ingredient basically means love.” However, people who wash their faces with rosewater or use it as a simple perfume don’t necessarily draw love to themselves. The ingredients aren’t inherently “magical”, the witch provides the magic. The witch is the one who takes the natural power that resides in these ingredients and uses them to their potential.

So, are ingredients truly necessary for a spell? Or can you just will it to happen?

Some witches may not need ingredients at all. They may have mastered bending reality to their whim and will things into happening. And for those witches, good for you! This post probably won’t be very helpful, nor do you need it, if that’s the case.

However, if you’re like most witches who need something to cling to to help make their spell more concrete and tangible, thus making it easier to put into existence, keep reading.

What Does This Have To Do With Visualization?

If a spell calls for certain ingredients, just visualize having them. Imagine having that priceless athame you’ve been coveting. Imagine having piles of quartz, or crystals that may be dangerous to handle in real life. Imagine having any herb that you may need. Imagine any vessel that you may need.

Now, this is definitely pretty tricky to do, and may take some practice, so start out small.

Practice

Imagine a cup resting on a flat surface in front of you. Imagine a jug of water next to it. Take your time to really visualize these items however you want them to look. Then, once you feel confident in that, try picking up the cup and the jug. Physically move and try to touch them. Imagine how they feel. Are they smooth, bumpy, slippery? Does the liquid inside the jug make the outside cool or warm? Which is heavier or harder to lift: the cup or the jug?

Keep practicing this with different objects until you get to a point where you feel you could imagine anything. Now you can cast any spell with any ingredient without the need to break the bank or reveal your secret!

Quick spell from my grandma that was passed onto her from her mum and however many generations…

Lost something?

Stick a pin in your sofa and it’ll return to you.

Why does this shit work? No clue, fam. But mum and grandma swear by it and I’ll be damned if it didn’t work for me today

[ioqayin]

This relates to a series of charms threatening a spirit to return something lost. One I’ve read consists of sticking pins into an apple to threaten the Devil to return what was lost. Another concerns stepping on a stone or leaving a stone under a pile of heavy objects until the object is returned. And sticking a pin into a chair is also common in folk charms. Pinning the Devil, it is called.

I’ve also heard this one (Pricking the Devil) - wonder where it comes from?

Take a minute and sit in silence. Feel the magick coursing through your veins and let it strengthen you.

You are powerful, and can get up even when you feel like falling down. Use your magick to embolden yourself

Chants to Charge Crystals with Intent

I find it easier to charge things with intent if I have something like a chant to focus on, so here you go

For psychic stones

Clear of mind, clear of sight

I can see the future bright

For power and catalyst stones

With your power fuel my spells

Hopes and dreams and wishing well

For emotional healing stones

Take what’s broken, make it whole

Heal all the wounds of my soul

Grow again straight and true

Bring all that’s good to full bloom

For manifestation stones

As the Magician to me reminds

The world is affected by my mind

To my thoughts it responds in kind

I’ll go forward at my best

To north, to south, to east, to west

Let all my hopes be manifest

For plant growth stones

My garden is green

My garden will grow

This I see

This I know

For physical protection stones

In this place I am safe

With this stone I am safe

As I go I am safe

As I am I am safe

For emotional protection and depression dispelling stones

Darkness, sadness, anger, hate

Sorrowful energies be dispelled

Fragile feelings of love and light

Will be protected safe and sound

For self love and healing stones

In my heart and mind I know

The strength to love myself and grow

For grounding stones

Water cleans me

Fire burns in me

Air holds me

Earth supports me

Spirit moves me

And I am free

For luck and success stones

Luck, power, success I find

I can make the future kind

For sleep and good dream stones

Dreams be kind, dreams be sweet

Let me have a gentle sleep

Tips, Tricks, and Shit to Remember.

[dog-rose]

What to use when in Witchcraft -

Ok so I am gonna say this is my personal reference, its mainly through associations. You might TOTALLY disagree and thats chill!

Its more something to think about and a guideline of what I use myself…

Candle Magic:

Carve a candle when…. the candle represents the target, in sympathetic magic. When, essentially, the candle is a poppet and lighting it is a symbol of destruction or empowerment to the target.

Place something under the candle or before it when… you are doing general candle magic, when the candle represents empowering a wish, idea or concept.

Anoint the candle when… doing work with spirits and gods, when you mark the candle for a special purpose, when doing high magic.

Herbs and plant work:

Use dry herbs when… it is convienent to do so, when the herbs are out of season or when you need to store them in a jar or bottle for a long time.

Use fresh herbs when… the spell is very earth orientated, when doing magic on behalf of another or when the magic is sympathetic so that the herbs represent the target, within kitchen witchery.

Use flowers when… when the spell concerns love and sex, or perhaps fertility and attraction, due to flowers being the reproductive parts of the plant.

Use fruit when when… working with children as a target, or with children practising. When you work with fertility and abundance spells.

Use wood and twigs when… when the spell is for protection or binding, for hardiness.

Burn herbs (recaning/incense) when… you wish to cleanse or banish, or invoke an atmosphere - that being, for divination using herbs that are said to open up your perceptions, when banishing, burning acrid or pungent herbs.

Use oil infusions when… you wish to anoint something, when you wish to mark something permanently.

Use floral waters (rose water etc) when… dealing with spirits and gods, for glamour as it has a long history of being used to beautify.

Crystals:

Use metals (haematite, copper, ores etc..) when… you work in protection, when you do energy work due to the conductive properties of metal.

Use shell, pearl, coral and such when… you work in sea magic, when you work within emotional magic due to the element of water.

Use points when… you wish to direct magic to a target.

Use tumble stones when… you wish the magic to be gentle or manifest at a certain place on the body on a target.

Use geodes when… you work in protection, when you work with glamour aimed to obscure and hide.

Knot magic:

Use cotton when… it is convenient.

Use silk when… doing spells that benefit the target.

Use ribbons when… love spells and wealth spells, as well as confidence and beauty spells. Spells to ensure victory.

Use rope when… doing spells that aim to hurt or weaken the target, binding especially.

Poppets:

Use cloth when… the spell aims to benefit who the poppet represents, use particular care when sewing or cutting, choose colours that are appropriate to them.

Use wax when… you wish to manipulate the target.

Use clay when… wish to create fetches or servitors, when you wish to create permanency.

Use twigs when… you wish to bury or throw the poppet out, when you want the poppet to be easily destroyed by breaking or setting on fire.

Sigils:

Use an alphabet grid or circle when… you wish the sigil to be more random and less attached to you.

Combine the shapes of letters from a sentence… when your sigil is very specific and a short term goal.

Use your own personal symbols when… you want the magic to be connected to you, when it is personal.
