Hello! I was wondering if you use any special technique for those really crisp, angular linearts? They look AMAZING
This is how I do it, hope you find it useful, and thanks! I gotta warn you though, doing lineart like this can take FOREVER.
It’s time for more successful adulting tips!
Ever wondered how to…. Change a tire? Balance a checkbook? Iron your clothes? Sew on a button? Jump a dead car battery? Handle a grease fire? Check the oil in your car? Do your taxes (US)? Handle a car accident? Understand health insurance? Treat heat stroke? Store and use condoms properly? Dispute/Negotiate a hospital bill? Understand an apartment lease before signing? Write a cover letter? Open a bank account? Get a new social security card? More to come, but here’s a start!
Was this recorded in a mug
i hear a beat
Reblog to have something good happen at 1:42 tomorrow
I saw this before I left work last night and had a quiet hope, and today I checked my phone at about quarter to two, while I was still on my lunch break, and I’ve just got a job interview with the BBC next week
I’m not a big believer in anything much but I’m so happy holy shit. So like unrelated note but something real good happened to me at 1.42 today lol
Just reblogging bc I had such a bad week
Kayso, like most people don’t actually know how to fit themselves for bras and they think that a DD is the biggest cup size, but a DD is actually more like what most people would think is a B or C cup because most bra wearing people are wearing a very wrong band size. There...
Photos like this are being spread across the internet lately, and they are dangerous for a few reasons. If you’re too lazy to read below; basically ignorant Americans are blaming other people, governments, and religions for problems their own nation caused. First, here is a history lesson on Afghanistan. From 1933 until 1973, Afghanistan was ruled under a man named Mohammed Zahir Shah. While he was a devout Muslim, he had a Western education in France. His reign marked four decades of peace and stability. With the introduction of a constitution Afghanistan progressively developed into a modern democratic state with free elections and a parliament, as well as a massive push for women’s rights, universal suffrage, education, worker’s rights, and civil rights. So yes, Afghanistan was doing well in the 60’s as this photo suggests. However, the photo doesn’t give you context for what went wrong. During this period in time the Soviet Union had a strong influence in Afghanistan. They supported modernization and education in the Afghan state. The United States, not wanting to risk their hegemony in the region, clearly had a major problem with this. They were terrified of the spread of Communism and quickly developed a plan. Afghanistan would become the Cold War’s chessboard. In the late 80’s, the Saudis, Pakistanis, and the Americans brought in radical Islamists from around the world. They armed, trained, and directed them into a militant force, and they were called the mujahideen. They became the US’ main offense against the Soviets. It wasn’t to defend the Afghans against the Soviets who were ready to pull out, but to deliver as much harm against them imaginable. Carter wanted Afghanistan to be the Soviet’s “Vietnam”. And it was. When they finally retreated Afghanistan spun into chaos and a civil war ensued under the militant mujahideen warriors. Within this framework we saw the rise of the Taliban and Al Qaeda, and of course Osama bin Laden. All under the auspices of the United States security forces and American tax-payer monies. Clinton’s bombing of Sudan and Afghanistan was directly responsible for their rise. Oh, and then in what was most likely the greatest immoral injustice of the 21st century the United States invaded Afghanistan in 2001 only further driving the besieged nation further into turmoil. What does this mean? The mujahideen, the Taliban, and Al Qaeda do not represent thousands of years of Afghan culture and Islam. They are a direct reaction to Western imperialism. The root cause for the disparity between the two pictures is foreign intervention. Not Islam, and certainly not Arabs.
Second, here is a history on Iran. Before 1953, Iran was ruled under a democratically elected man called Mohammad Mosaddegh. Under his reign Iran saw a progressive movement of social and political reforms. During this time Britain tried to establish an oil company (British Petroleum) on Iranian soil, and promised to share profit and technology with the Iranian government. However the British, as usual, didn’t honor their agreement. They, and the United States, began to steal Iran’s oil. Prime Minister Mosaddegh would not stand for this and demanded the seizure of the oil fields and the ouster of the British. In response, the British and the United States overthrew him in a coup and installed the Shah who was a brutal tyrant and ruled the nation under an absolute monarchy. The women in this picture did live well, but that was because they were members of a very small minority and in the Shah’s social circle. Everyone else in Iran lived under harsh conditions. The economy was failing, education was abysmal, and the entire nation was rural and very religious. Today, Iran’s health care is better. They have more political freedom. Education is improving, and the country is slowly globalizing. The economy is slightly better off, however that is quickly changing with the Western world’s sanctions against Iran in midst of their nuclear propaganda campaign at the behest of Israel.
What does this mean? Essentially, the Islamic Revolution had little to do with the rise of an Islamic state; rather the resistance of Western imperialism. Almost every social and political group was united in resisting the Shah, from the communists to the secularists to the Islamists. They demanded Iranian sovereignty and political freedoms. Is the current regime in Iran perfect? Absolutely not, and I’m passionately against it. But this picture is extremely distortive of the truth. Unfortunately, we have gone full circle. Today, the United States is supporting terrorist cells in Iran in an attempt to oust the current Iranian regime. They want to establish another pro-Western government like the Shah and “try again” where they failed. They have been doing this for decades and it hasn’t been working well. That is why we are now seeing media hysteria against Iran, and their false quest to achieve nuclear power and bomb Israel. Iran is a peaceful nation, and always has been. They have never attacked another nation, and have absolutely no intention of attacking Israel or anyone else for that matter. The United States’ war against Iran is rooted solely to seek revenge for their failed foreign policy in the 70’s and to once again take control of their natural resources. In conclusion, if you think you can understand decades of history in the Middle East, or anywhere for that matter, by looking at a photograph you are a fucking idiot who has no right to engage in intellectual discussion or give your opinion on anything other than what you watched on TLC last night.
Emphasis mine.
Also, if you measure progress and “development” in units of “Women in Western Clothing/sq. mile” you’re a fucking imperialist prick and can get the fuck out.
Bringing this back for reasons.

Titans Dark, by TBranch
Behold this wonderful commission I just received from TBranch :D
A team of some of my favorite badass DC ladies, dubbed Titans Dark. They take on the stickier tasks that the normal Titans wouldn’t bother getting their hands dirty with, dealing with everything from international terrorists to their own fathers (Deathstroke, Vandal Savage, David Cain, and yes even Trigon).
Rose Wilson, aka Ravager- The Tactician. She’s the leader of the team, the strategizer, and the most well rounded in terms of skill and physical abilities. Capable of putting together a plan for any situation, she is responsible for bringing the team together.
Cassandra Cain, aka Black Bat- The Infiltrator. When it comes to stealth and infiltration, she’s the girl to turn to. She’s also far and above the best of the group in terms of pure skill. She also acts as a sort of morality pet for some of the less moral members, often butting heads with Scandal over her rather brutal methods.
Scandal Savage- The Dragon. When you need to unleash pain and take down a room full of opponents pronto, there’s no one better than the daughter of Vandal Savage. With brutal skill, an accelerated healing factor, and the least likely of the group to feel bad over some beaten enemies, she knows how to get the job done.
Raven- The Mystic. The heavy hitter of the group in terms of raw power, and an expert in the weird and supernatural, she is an essential part of the team with how many bizarre cases they’ve uncovered. everything from demonic cultists to undead armies.
Renee Montoya, aka The Question- The Detective. Though perhaps not quite able to measure up to the others in terms of skill or power, you won’t find anyone more capable of discovering clues and following bread crumbs, making her possibly the most integral member of the team. If not for her, many of their cases might go unsolved.
(P.S. Can we get this as an actual book? Preferably written by Gail Simone?)
Pictures of Ultraman Orb have finally appeared and it appears his has the ability to combine the powers of past Ultramen.
His main form is based on the original Ultraman and Ultraman Tiga, it’s called “Orb Specium Zepellion”. His second form is based on Ultraman Taro and Ultraman Mebius and is called “Orb Burn Mite” His third form is based on Ultraman Zero and an unknown Ultraman and is called “Orb Hurricane Slash”.
Translations look right to me. Designs look like ass to me. I didn’t like Ultraman X’s design, either, but the show turned out to be great, so whatever. Pretty blatant attempt to maximize the number of forms (and TOYS), but it’s the fun of the show that matters.
His head looks like a pregnancy test stick.
