do you have advice for drawing clothing + its folds and the waves on dresses? no pressure but it’d be very appreciated if you had any!!!! you’re very cool okay thanks have a good day

hmm... this isn't a topic i'm especially well versed in (and i think i still have a lot of work to do regarding it) but i can do my best to show my process

VERY first thing i do when drawing dresses is draw the legs beneath.

you can make them as simple or as detailed as you want. the important thing is that they're 3d (at least in your head. get enough down to where YOU know what's going on)

then, add some guides so you know where the tops and bottoms of the dress are. use the basic pose to determine which parts of the dress (if any) will be outwards. if it would help, you can draw the pose from a side view.

and then you sort of "connect the dots" while keeping in mind the forms of the legs beneath.

when i draw them in this sort of pose, they end up looking a lot like loose pants haha

drawing folds specifically is kind of tricky, and it's something i'm still figuring out myself. there are plenty of tutorials around that are made by people with much more skill and training than i, but the gist is: consider points where the body beneath would create a lot of tension and use that

i myself am not very good with drawing dresses yet (i've only just begun!!) so the best thing i can recommend is unfortunately: study. OR do what i've done and just look at other people doing it until you absorb it (which is studying but longer. But less immediately boring)

i know people usually send you songs for null (since you are the null guy) but i would like to point out. One Man Circus is Baldi. i thought you would agree maaaybe

"i gotta do what i gotta do. ive got me, and yu've got you. used to play the part well, but now it seems i forgot. you'll never know who i am, who im not. dont look to close or it'll seem odd. this world that you see can be quite the facade. yu'll still applaud, not your job to ask. but backstage i know, im wearing a mask. and when i burn out, and i wish to be done, I'll yank at my strings. it's only act one."

that part happened to be the part playing as i wrote this, so maybe there is better examples but that fits well too! very!

showed this to my friend who is a big baldi fan and she said it fits !! and i agree

Sleepyhead by The Scary Jokes is nulldi to me. null singing about baldi.

"i have never been the type to go to church, and i have never prayed for anyone but her. but i pray for each night, dreaming that it might catch her ear." thats nulldi

oh you're onto something. oh you're onto something. i'll start biting (this is a good thing)

[justnobodyx3]

ok actually i need to keep going just a tiny bit before i go insane

small recap. Burn Pygmalion (the album Sleepyhead comes from, very good if yu havent heard it) takes the story of two girls—Sylvia and Jeanine—who are girlfriends. but also toxic. but not in a mean way. they have bad communication and they love each other a lot but they are both nervous to mess it up and codependent and yes. Sylvia ends up moving away for a bit (to go into movies and such) and so I though maybe Null would be Sylvia. because Jeanine—Baldi—is stuck in Sylvia's home until she comes back. and gets depressed. and almost kills herself (but doesnt!) ok ⬇️

That song i just mentioned where Jeanine almost kills herself is called Crushed Out on Soda Beach, and is my favorite song in the album. this song is also nulldi. so im gonna quickly analyze it. the song is in Jeanine's pov, in this case Baldi.

quickly would like to mention suicidal baldi. "i tried just burning the whole thing to the ground today. but decisiveness is such a foreign tennant to my psyche. i violently and immediately began to reject it." but not very important to the rest of this

"i danced with yu in a nightmare, i was dragging yu across the floor " / "i could hardly stand under the weight of my little crush on yu. and yu so limp in my arms hardly helped, so, all that i could do... was collapse... under yu." <- i think this is self explanitory. null is "dead" (not really, but the same jist). im bad at explaination im so sorry im tired. i will persist anyways. the song transitions from there to something lighter? not happy, but like. uhhhm. relief? i think it is implied that Sylvia comes back here. Null does not. but. "yu called my bluff, i love yu too much. would yu please stay with me? cuz after all is said and done, i need yu here. stay with me. i showed my hand and i dont give a damn. shut the door. stay with me. cuz after all is said and done, i need yu here..."

i actually think this song could work both ways. i find it difficult to assign them to one specific character, because they could be either depending on the song. but BP does remind me of nulldi a little. PLEASE ASK ME TO ANALYZE ALL THE SONGS TO NULLDI. I WILL GLADLY. but not right now, i cant get the words out. i want to go farther into detail but i cant right now. maybe i should go to bed but i wont. maybe yu will pick up what i am putting down. remind me to analyze later

[rgby-situation]

i am so intrigued tell me everything when you can. i will do my best to get it

CONGRATULATIONS ON GRADUATING!!!!!!!!!!

umm i will say i did send that at like. 2am. and i haven’t slept well recently so i’m not entirely? sure? what my thought process was at the time. however! i think i can guess i’m usually good at puzzling out my own thoughts.

(also i mostly only Generally remember the great gatsby because again. not sleeping well. so i apologise if i’m incorrect about things.. i’m also not very good at analysis & my teacher gave us a presentation on the symbolism & themes in the book so we haven’t been really given an opportunity to develop our own opinions on that… we just get quizzed on what the intended commentary of scenes are or how characters connect to themes. sorry i’m just rambling about my class </////3)

i think it was probably along the lines of like.. from what i’ve read nick definitely is a passive observer in his own life. i think it was less liiike “she’s gotta take estrogen” and more “nick NEEDS to figure things out and start like. making changes for himself” if that makes sense. i do think it’d definitely help him understand daisy & jordan though, yeah

i don’t Knooow i’m just rambling sorry. i don’t think this makes any sense </3 thanks for letting me talk though. skitter away and again happy graduation!!!!!! that’s super awesome

thank you! i'm so tired!!

i see your vision. i felt like a passive observer in my own life until i accepted and grew into myself so i can absolutely see that as a trans nick thing. fantastic and beautiful

[rgby-situation]

hello sorry null i like bothering you. you are fun to bother. i presume you’ve read the great gatsby since you’re an american (iirc, at least if saying your null blog null was kentuckian was projection) english major so i have a peculiar question. do you think estrogen could’ve helped nick

unfortunately yes i am a kentuckian american. hate this place. about to go into the english program anyway, i'm actually graduating highschool TODAY!

anyway, i think what would've helped nick was realizing that his bias for gatsby was fueled by his own... passionate feelings. and realizing that he's not as honest as he thinks.

i had never really thought about transfem nick before... maybe being a girl would help him understand daisy better because he certainly did not.

i honestly didn't think too much about nick when i read (and watched) the great gatsby even though he's. yknow the protagonist and everything is framed through his views. i Was interested in how that affected his perception of daisy and jordan though. because those two were my primary focus. i like jordan a lot yay

transfem nick... i think it could certainly work and i would love to hear about your ideas regarding it because i just woke up so my head's a little empty
