BIG fan of "tracing 3d models of cars to avoid having to freehand them" do you have any other good shortcuts? Honest question. I wanna do my comic projects one day but I have chronic pain & bad eyes so I need all the help I can get

literally take every shortcut you can.. trace photos and 3d models or manipulate them to complement your style

save frequently used color palettes, char references, etc somewhere so they can be pulled up quickly (like in materials folder in CSP)

make a doc with all your chars refs in one file and keep it open in the bg so u dont have to open 20 separate pics

figure out character outfits ahead of time

do not spend extra time trying to make one panel perfect. ppl will only look at it for 10 seconds tops and nobody cares if it's not a masterpiece

color-pick environment/background colors straight from a photo of a similar area

dont like drawing something that appears frequently in comic? download or make a brush for it (i have a glasses stamp brush bc i hate drawing them more than you will ever understand)

my entire life motto is halfass everything and cut corners as often as possible. never put 100% effort into anything. i did very poorly in school btw

Has anything been said in regards to uneven facial features? I hc my inquisitor to have partial facial paralysis after trespasser which I imagine is longshot with animation and all lmao but I can dream

hello! ◕‿◕ We know that we can adjust the asymmetry of ears [source], but I haven't seen anything further than that. everything I've seen about CC is gathered into these two compilation posts: [one, two]

29 and 30 for ilya (stunbolt wrote this ask)

¬‿¬

29: The sound they make when they’re in pain.

If it’s a ‘fresh hurt’ after an attack, obviously, he’s loud. Not a shriek but a yell, usually a curse - a good ‘motherfucker!’. Imagine a hit to the ribs, a knife slice that leaves a line - he immediately throws a hand up to catch the attacker’s jaw while yelling ‘fuck!’

If he’s trying to get away: quiet. He holds where he’s hurt tight and grits his teeth, locks his jaw. You can hear him grunt and whine and the gasps he gives as he struggles.

If it’s a fun, naughty kind of pain? Just moans. lbr. lbr. lbr.

30: How they react to being scared.

he tries not to let people see him scared and he’s fairly good at it, but if you genuinely manage to terrify him a lot of his response is physical. He doesn’t waste time with words, and he doesn’t plead - you’d have to have him thoroughly beat, pinned down, intending to kill someone he loves or do something truly heinous to them or him before he begs for his freedom.

If he’s afraid and not trapped, he fights and he goes for the weakest spots on a person, like the eyes or a good punch to the throat. He’ll grab ears and bend fingers back and dig his nails into heels if it gives him even a second to get the edge or get away.

i love gage SO much that i still dont know if i can bear to kill him off in my future nuka world fic. one of my alt ideas is just having stunbolt take gage with him and flee back home to maine where his terrible raider family's pre-war ghoul matriarch chews him out for getting in over his dumb head but also welcomes his raider husband into the clan

YOU SHOULD GO FOR THAT! IN THIS HOUSE WE DONT KILL GAGE!

Okay but like I know he is bad, and he doesn’t do anything to show willingness for redemption in canon, but consider this - I love him and I am known for rewriting and fixing stories left and right and I will absolutely not kill him off because he is also a very good and funny character :/

in my onion i think 2013 carrie gets kinda brushed off too easily as it *does* bring something to the table in the form of a) big budget & newer tech making the last chunk of the film really bitchin and b) the social media angle for once being actually yknow. a plausible and interesting addition imo (Carrie Epic Cringe Fail Viral Video 2k13). but it also needed more of its own shit maybe? so it could exist w/out the context of the original? idk!! movie words!!

i feel like... what the 2013 film does is just update the original and i think theres some value to that but id really love for a film to totally break free of the original and not cling to the plot? bcs the remake’s plot is very close to the original but i would really love for someone to like. not worry so much about living in the shadow of the original and make it their own yknow.
