@intergalactic-cruiseships
Uhhh, so I said I'd post this like a month ago and then just,, forgot? Whoops.
Anyway, this is for @slingerapen 's fic Like Real People Do, about a dragon!Jon. Sorry about the bad quality, I'll come back to it later, I just suddenly remembered that I hadn't posted it and was promptly consumed with guilt. A higher quality, colored version should follow soon 😅
your works always have such nice anatomy!! have you studied a lot, and are there any resources you would recommend to others for improving their own anatomy? thanks!
Thank you! I do have a few resources that have helped me
Egg a Zyoutstsu- a site that loads random “skeletons” that you can draw over to practice anatomy, posing, and foreshortening!
QuickPoses- a pose generating site. I usually use it when I’m brainstorming what to draw, since the poses are randomized and its hard to just, like, find a reference for a pose you already have in your head
@grizandnorm have a lot of really good, easy to understand tutorials on the basics of art: line of action, gesture drawings, facial expressions, stuff like that. The tutorials are pretty short, and if you want them all in an easily accessible & organized place you might consider their book, but the ones you can find on the internet are really helpful!
EtheringtonBrothers- lots of in-depth tutorials that focus more on how to your improve art. Its good if you want to branch out from character art, but they also have a lot of stuff on drawing people as well!
Alphonso Dunn has a ton of tutorials on his youtube channel! It’s more stuff you would learn in professional art classes. Good for if you're starting out, or want to learn the basics before stylizing your art
4am S3 Jon while listening to Hozier on loop? It must be me
Might come back and color this one, I really like it
schrodingers_cat on Ao3 has the absolute BEST TMA fic, Ghosts, Eldritch Horrors, and YouTubers, Oh My!
Started listening to The Magnus Archives awhile ago. Jon would have definitely taken a uni job in a local theatre as a tech, because the thought of him having to deal with the same shit my sister and I have is absolutely hilarious to me
i made an expression meme!!! but for pain/angst because i’ve only seen one or two of those! please credit me if you repost, do not trace please! tag all art appropriately if possible.
I’ve always wanted to do these, so here is a random fast one.
If you use PLEASE credit and ping/tag me so I can see it! <3

I’ve been reading @perrybearwaks stories again on dA and honestly it’s such a whiplash to go from the most recent one back to the beginning
Reblog if you're a self-taught artist.
Wanna see how many there are.
Same here
If by self taught you mean years of doodles, crying over your pathetic art, tearing up thousands of drawings and then finally drawing something you’re proud of… ONLY TO HATE IT 5 DAYS LATER
Then yes. I am self taught.
hell yeah i am! //raises both hands and feet
I’m still learning… But for some reason I don’t do well with reference line thingy’s ._.
Why is everyone always so surprised when they find out an artist is self taught? “Hey, that’s really good! Are you in art class?” “No, I just kinda learned as I went.” “WHAAAAAAAT!”
1. Ah Fai was a chief animator for McDull’s animated features. He’s super cool. Ultimate senpai.
2. Previous post on breakdowns right here
Some thoughts on acceleration and force
I presented this in the order of how I slowly understood the trick of delivering force - first an abstract concept of impact taught by Ah Fai, then a more complicated discovery on the acceleration pattern, last back to a more abstract concept of breakdowns.
Like I’ve previously stressed, 2D animation is everything but one single approach. There’s no one rule that rules them all, but interchangeable ideas with math, or physics, or music, etc. There’s no “perfect” animation either, but what is perceived as organic and dynamic. E.g., using the Fibonacci numbers to animate didn’t bring me a perfect animation! On the other hand, a tiny change in the pattern could already make the feeling of force so much more powerful.
Not so much of a tutorial than a personal experience. I hope you find this interesting hahaha
This advice is helpful.
Tezuka said much of the same! This is the great advantage anime has over Disney-style animation– tons and tons of frames make thing look very smooth and pretty, but completely removes the sense of genuine IMPACT from action sequences. They’re not as snappy! Watching a frame-by-frame of a Bruce Lee flick, you’ll see a move executed in very few shots.
My new 70-page autobio comic about moving to LA and starting in animation is now online!! I also posted LOTS of helpful links at the bottom of the page for anyone interested in story art or a career in animation. Follow the link to read more~ http://homeiswheretheinternetis.blogspot.com/2017/09/animation.html
Visdev or no visdev, I recommend everyone who wants to know about getting into the industry to read Natalie’s comic! I had a very different, but also very similar experience. Gonna read it myself this weekend too haha :D

How to help an artist:
Ditch the like button
No, seriously. If you don’t have money to help out an artist financially, the second best thing is to reblog all the things you like. While liking it does tell the artist that “hey I really like this!” It does jack shit because the only ones who will see that are me and you.
Why do you think there are so SO many posts made by people that are literally summed down to “please reblog my artwork I need the notes!”? Because no one reblogs artwork. Unless you’re a ridiculously popular blog with thousands of followers, you’ll only end up getting 1 or no reblogs.
SO HELP OUT ARTISTS AND PLEASE REBLOG OUR ART, BECAUSE WE REALLY NEED THE VIEWS ;V;)/
Friendly reminder. Reblog it if u dig it :)
