There was a long time ago where someone was having an eternal bonding ceremony in ffxiv that was Brokeback Mountain themed, and they made such a great immitation poster and everything. I'm trying to look for it, does anybody know where it is? Pleeeaasseee!

[mssugarpopart]

G'raha with a burger has been living in my head rent-free for three weeks, and I'm glad to finally let this out into the world to enjoy with me. (Also, food art is pretty satisfying. No wonder people do food art!)

My final piece of the year.  My absolute favorite part of this expansion was filling the shoes of Azem with my 2 best friends & god before I knew her. And the moon. And the gunbreaker coat. So I combined them all. My FFXIV Blog @ffxivquel

[rhotdornn]

Roevember’s here, lads! And with that, the newest batch of gift commishes from @mrssugarpop!

Featuring right here do we have our very own raucous redhead ready to go ham on some bread pork loin.

I’ve been terribly inactive here as I sort many things out, but more stories will be coming soon. I’ve been much more active on Dornn’s twitter, https://twitter.com/rhotdornn with my Roevember screenshots.

You can find the artist also much more easily on her twitter, https://twitter.com/mrssugarpop!

I always wanted an Ariel that was more fishy.

Hey ya’ll! It’s ROEVEMBER~!

I want to draw your Roegababes and Roegahunks again, so please reblog or reply to this post with a pretty picture or two of your Roes, and I’ll possibly draw them on stream. 

Here’s the art I did last time:

Please share your photos soon, though!

I was going through stuff and I just had to give a justification for the hop

But now it looks so much better

im very grateful for the lessons in photography i was taught in stop motion class because just now they made it possible to photograph the stars with my phone in spite of the camera usually not detecting the light of stars because theyre so dim,,,, enjoy these shiny motherfuckers

[polyglotplatypus]

ok so if everythings normal, your phone camera should have a manual mode (sometimes called pro mode). in it, change the settings of the shutter lag to 20 seconds, then put the phone down on some stable, plane surface and press the photo button (usually when using your camera, the volume buttons can be used as photo button) and let the phone still for the whole 20 seconds. 

(basically the problem with most cameras is that they dont have a very good light sensitivity in the dark, however that doesnt mean they cant detect it at all. the longer the shutter is open, the more light your camera takes in and the more burnt/light your pic will be, so in (literally) dark situations, make the shutter lag longer to get all that light you need! also i said 20 seconds but really you can make it shorter or longer depending on what kinda stuff you want for your stars)

[nobodybetterhavethisoneoriswear]

Yes this!

Additionally, adjust your ISO to the highest number (mimics the film used for very low light and low speed images)

And set your shutter speed to the longest time possible (on my phone it’s 10 seconds).

Leave your focus settings on Auto, and if your phone camera has a timer option, turn that on (five seconds is generally enough).

Plan your shot first, then find a place to set your phone down so you can get the image you want. The less light pollution, the better; you’ll pick up FAR more stars in your picture.

Once you know what you want to shoot, tap your screen to “focus” it, then hit the button to take the picture, set your phone down, and back away from the “tripod”. Don’t touch your phone for a good 15 seconds, just to be sure.

You will not be disappointed in the results, let me assure you.

Not even a little bit.

[zetarays]

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I’VE EVER LEARNED

[astrophysics-daily]

Works best in an area with low light pollution (city lights) of course !

It’s 3am and I’m learning the Loomis method on drawing heads and it’s a fresh new take, lemme tell ya.

artist tips

don’t save as jpeg

[suchirolle]

as a former yearbook editor and designer, let me explain this further

if youre only planning on posting your art online, them please save it as .png ;this is also better for transparencies as well

BUT

please, if youre planning of printing your art, NEVER use png. it makes the quality of the image pretty shitty. use jpeg or pdf instead. and always set your work at 300dpi to get a better printing quality - this means, the images are crisper and sharper and theres no slight blurriness. i had a talk with my friend who is currently taking design, and pdf is much better to use when youre working with a bigger publishing company because it still has the layers intact, but if youre only planning on printing your stuff at staples or at some small publishing store, the jpeg is the way to go.

this has been a public service announcement
