Hey all!

here you'll find all sorts of resources and references for art! this blog is mostly centered around drawing and digital art, as i mostly created this archive for myself, but i also have some resources for crafts and fiber arts. its still a bit of an organizational mess but i hope you can find something that will suit your needs!

A compilation of stuff I know about drawing Asian faces and Asian culture! I feel like many “How-To-Draw” tutorials often default to European faces and are not really helpful when drawing people of other races. So I thought I’d put this together in case anyone is interested! Feel free to share this guide and shoot me questions if you have any! I’m by no means an expert, I just know a few things from drawing experience and from my own cultural background.

skin color ref because some of yall non-black poc and whites keep fucking up as if yall don’t know there’s other shades of brown when u racebend for woke points or something 

(non-black artists please reblog)

[atissi]

do you have any tips on drawings noses? particularly non-white noses?? all the tutorials are european noses and i just want to learn how to draw my own nose!!

oh i feel you. the nice thing about being a poc is that you can always study yourself in the mirror to learn how to draw yourself better! but anyways:

if you’re wondering which kinds of noses are frequent for which race, i like to use this guide. I can’t verify how accurate it is, but it’s pretty damn comprehensive for racial traits around the world. I also really like this guide for learning how to draw a variety of East Asian noses (it’s not all flat!). Here’s an equivalent guide that includes drawing African noses. And there’s always Google images for more specific requirements.

+ 3D models are really helpful when drawing noses: x x x

+ here are some general nose tutorials by better artists lol: x x

EDIT: i’ve been notified that “h**k nose” is used as an antisemitic slur! i’ve changed the type’s name to “aquiline” in this tutorial. thanks!

staring at images of your characters and making unintelligible noises at them.

it's one thing to have a mutual who's obsessed with blorbo from their show but it is quite another when a mutual is obsessed with their OC. to be clear, it's so much better. blorbo from their brain is awesome. oh you made a sim of them and are posting dozens of screencaps of the sim in different poses? you commissioned another five drawings of them because you just had to see them in those new outfits you thought of? you're self-shipping with them and one of your friend’s OCs? I love you so much. please never ever stop.

i don't post my art ever. have something that makes me explode.

[swadloom]

[retquits]

there is something so crazy and powerful about having art of your oc that was made by anyone other than yourself. like oh my god you actually exist outside of my own brain that's WILD
