Fabric folds are so hard. At least for me. The more detail I add the more they start to look like frosting on a cake. Crispness does not come naturally to me. But I try!!

I drew these for my Patreon challenge. This month, we’re drawing gems and colorful rocks - join us!

This made me cry...

Wonders, and lots of purrs 😽

[rabbitscreams]

we need to invent a way to explain how deep running and pervasive and subliminal racism and antiblackness is without immediately sounding like an insane conspiracy theorist

[rabbitscreams]

female characters are always lighter than male characters. strong characters are almost always dark. aggressive characters are almost always dark. peaceful and intelligent characters are almost always light. even amongst darker characters the lightest one is usually either the leader or the girls. dark is evil and light is good.

[rabbitscreams]

if you try to explain this to a white person they look at you like youre insane

[gay-milton-quotes]

briefly pursuing a career in animation radicalized me on this. So many stories from the industry about how you have to start with your character design as dark as possible, because INEVITABLY you'll get "notes" from higher-ups asking you to make them lighter.

In a class about making a pitch bible my teacher once role-played as a shitty executive with a classmate, pressing them in intentionally abrasive ways about why they made their characters diverse. He emphasized that we had to learn to defend these things, because the racism in the industry is extremely deliberate.

i'd like to add that the shadow color isnt necessarily dictated entirely by the primary light source, but the bounce light! so for the example of a sunny environment, the reason the shadows are blue are because of the light from the blue sky reflects across the environment; but, if the character were to be under tree cover, the bounce light would be coming from the leaves and thus the shadow would look greener.

[danidarkarts]

Yee yee!!! You got it right on the nose!

Bounce light is something I didn't cover but I adore it!

Gotta work on my bounce light 💪

inspired by the latest audiobook chapter of @ladyteelia 's series strong hearts of mandatory to do some proper fanart for the first time :3

apologies for the ugly filter, i don't want my art stolen and i don't trust tumblr not to show my work to ai bros

i don't feel comfortable posting my art online anymore thanks to ai but i want to show my appreciation for a story i've loved since i was 12 ^w^ the books don't appear to be available in my country unfortunately so i'm very happy to be able to enjoy mandatory in audio form through teelia's youtube. give it a listen and/or read, xenofiction fans!
