What has served as inspiration for your art style? I’m still trying to improve mine

So much.

Mid-1900s animated American films, from Disney to Don Bluth to UPA. Late-90s to early-2000s anime, especially OVAs (favorite studios were Madhouse and Gainax). Pre-digital comics: The Adventures of Tintin, Pogo Possum, Calvin & Hobbes, Peanuts, Little Nemo in Slumberland. Graphic novels: Hellboy, Blacksad, Jamie Hewlett's work. For individual artists online: my partner Tulliok, Snoozincopter, Alariko, Louie Zong, DeusExMakena, SachinTeng, SsSantine, brawlersworld, Tanjeronie, Carly Henson. There are more but those are the ones who come to mind.

This is an extremely random and eclectic list, but they've all influence the whole body of my work and style, from character design to film composition to storytelling to coloring to line weight. They all reflect something in art that I love: I love flat colors, I love heavy line weight, I love harsh shadows, I love drawing people, I love sci-fi and soft fantasy, I love romance and drama, I love the grittiness of pre-digital art-making, I love the cleanliness and clarity of digital art-making. Check out these works and artists, but they may not embody who you are. The best advice I can give is find and eat and savor as much art as you can and let it change you. Ask yourself why something speaks to you; it can be as small as the way someone draws an ear. Ask yourself why that artist decided to draw it that way. Then make it your own.

Your inspirations should be as multi-faceted as you. Have fun!

Do you use the slider things Kevin Temmer uses for animation? I don’t have any animation software so idk what to call anything

There are a lot of sliders when you mess with 3D, a 3D program like Blender is basically slider-mania. I will go out on a limb here and assume you might be talking about rig sliders.

A rig is kinda like a skeleton which makes characters move. It essentially works like the armatures stop-motion animators use. Sometimes, a 3D rig can have sliders to make animating faces and other things easier. I usually make these sliders myself, and it's a pretty lengthy process. They look something like this.

These sliders control the face. If rig sliders isn't what you were referring to, then I will assume you might be talking about shape keys.

Shape keys are cool and awesome and rad because they are like layers in a drawing program. You switch them on, sculpt on the geometry, and then a slider will change the shape to what you sculpted the geometry into. I usually use them to make extreme expressions on pre-existing characters:

I also use shape keys to fix errors, like when geometry clips together, or whenever I want to make free-form changes, as they allow for a lot of creative freedom. Hope some of this was insightful! :'D

so i’ve seen people against afab and amab and i figured an intersex person who’s engaged with fighting for acceptance would know sort of the right answer? since you’re in the demographic these things would hurt the most (warning for genital talk?)

when i’m talking about people who a doctor said “yeah that’s penis enough” or “yeah that’s vagina enough” they were assigned male and assigned female. that’s the event that separates them. from my perspective saying idk “people with penises” isn’t correct bc 1 people get surgeries to remove or add things in both trans and health surgeries and 2 if your genitals are “male enough” that you were assigned male but you have noticeable female aspects to your genitals does it exclude you to say penis?

i call MYSELF afab because my experience growing up female has affected my gender identity and i know you can call yourself whatever you want bc it’s your own experience, but since people started arguing about the term i don’t know what to call people anymore when i’m talking about human bodies (like in the last thing i reblogged, I’ll stay off tumblr a bit so you can actually find it. also bc i have class soon. I’m not saying that when i see a person in the street i need to point and say AFAB lol).

If any of this is phrased like it makes NO sense i woke up like half an hour ago sorry. and if any of it is phrased harmfully please correct me. i really hope i got my question across at some point in this because i don’t have the brain power to proofread past some spelling errors yet today

I'm gonna be SO honest, when I read the '“yeah that’s penis enough” or “yeah that’s vagina enough”' I heard snoop dogg saying it, but with the body of my doctor and that was so fucking funny BUT ANYWAYS

It depends on what you're talking about. People with penises is in fact vague! It includes micropenises, can include clitoromegaly depending on the scenario, penises, tdicks, etc.

We should be getting more specific. For example, if we're talking about penis health or dpecifically foreskins, say people with foreskin. If we're talking about prostates, say People with prostates. If it's inner labia or outer labia, say that! People with a womb, People with cervixes, etc.

"from my perspective saying idk “people with penises” isn’t correct bc 1 people get surgeries to remove or add things in both trans and health surgeries and 2 if your genitals are “male enough” that you were assigned male but you have noticeable female aspects to your genitals does it exclude you to say penis?" Again, it depends on the question. For the second part, the penis is what would have been the clitoris had there been those hormones in the womb (or the lack thereof) or they were androgen resistant. It is not what would have been the vulva, womb, labias, cervix, or the ovaries.

(still answering the quoted text). If they had somewhat female genitalia (say, the scrotum or testes weren't fully developed, they had a womb (undeveloped or not), etc.) then they would apply to those type of questions/groups (people with a womb etc.). Depending on the scrotum and testes development, they may or may not be included in people with vulvas, or people with testicles/scrotums. In most cases you'd either just listen to both advice and see if that applies to you or just try all the advice.

Basically, if they consider what they have is a penis, it's a penis, especially if they have a glans. Just remember penis is not all of the sexual organ, same as vulva.

Also with trans people that got bottom surgery, it still applies to them. If you're saying people that were BORN with x genitalia, then they'd still be included because they can still answer. Again, different topics need different specifics.

"i call MYSELF afab because my experience growing up female has affected my gender identity and i know you can call yourself whatever you want bc it’s your own experience, but since people started arguing about the term i don’t know what to call people anymore when i’m talking about human bodies (like in the last thing i reblogged, I’ll stay off tumblr a bit so you can actually find it. also bc i have class soon. I’m not saying that when i see a person in the street i need to point and say AFAB lol)." Ok, understandable. Whatever gender you grow up as doesn't have too much to do with your AGAB rather than your SIG (socially imposed gender), at least not once you hit puberty. The thing about agab is that it is often not necessary to talk about and it's annoying as fuck when people bring it up unnecessarily. It says nothing about what genitals you have, what you look like, how the hormones in your body work, or how you grew up. All it is is an event that happened when you weren born where a doctor looked at your genitals and made their best guess.

Like, it is unnecessary to say "I'm amab/afab nonbinary how do i look more androgynous :)" because bitch!! that doesn't give me any information 😭 And people often just use it as a way to be like "Oh yeah I'm afab/amab so I have a vulva/penis". Like, did we forget about how people do not need to know wtf is in our pants? It's not necessarily an identity but an event that happened.

Anyways, I hope this helps? And I hope I don't sound rude and got my point across, sometimes I talk in circles or repeat myself. If you need me to clarify lmk :D

What is your “extra tag”?

It's my miscellaneous tag basically! Any posts that arn't fandom or a very specific interest related (like dragons frogs etc) go under that tag. I didn't know what name to give it at the start so i just went with 'extra tag' as a placeholder but it ended up sticking gfkjg
