“So… you’ve come to me, sought me out, all alone… And all of your own accord, your own free will, yet again. You really do understand how much you need me, little one. I assume you’re not here just for a visit?”
“I… am not here to visit you. I had a question that I needed an answer to.”
“An answer you couldn’t rely on your so-called friends or your dear Master Fung for.” A statement, not a question. A smug, self-satisfied tone laced his voice, like he had just won something. “I see.”
Omi tried his best to glower. “I… did not want to seem a fool to them– No, I merely did not want to waste their valuable time! Master Fung has lots to do! He is marshed!”
Swamped, he assumed. “Heh, of course… Ah, but don’t be afraid to be a fool, Omi. Wisdom isn’t found by those afraid to seek it out. You’d never learn anything that way. Refusing to ask questions is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because you fear answers. Seeking leads to knowledge, knowledge leads to strength, and I can give you both. And besides… I admire how the stubborn foolishness in the way you actively keep choosing to trust and respect your greatest enemy, no matter what your friends may feel about that. It’s quite cute. And that’s a sincere compliment. You can keep seeking me out for whatever those feckless monks at the temple can’t give you. We may be enemies for now, but you are still my student– you can ask anything of me. I am here to teach and guide you. But you know that. It’s why you keep coming to me, trusting me, time and time again, is it not? I’m the balm to all you may lack.”
“–Fine, in that case, you can tell me: where do babies come from.”
“………..”
Trying to draw buildings
yo here’s a useful tip from your fellow art ho cynellis… use google sketchup to create a model of the room/building/town you’re trying to draw… then take a screenshot & use it as a reference! It’s simple & fun!
Sketchup is incredibly helpful. I can’t recommend it enough.
There’s a 3D model warehouse where you can download all kinds of stuff so you don’t have to build everything from scratch.

This is an incomplete tutorial, and it drives me crazy every time I see it come around.
We live in a pretty great digital age and we have access to a ton of amazing tools that artists in past generations couldn’t even dream of, but a lot of people look at a cool trick and only learn half of the process of using it.
Here’s the missing part of this tutorial:
How do you populate your backgrounds?
Well, here’s the answer:
If the focus is the environment, you must show a person in relation to that environment.
The examples above are great because they show how to use the software itself, but each one just kind of “plops” the character in front of their finished product with no regard of the person’s relation to their environment.
How do you fix this?
Well, here’s the simplest solution:
This is a popular trick used by professional storyboard and comic artists alike when they’re quickly planning compositions. It’s simple and it requires you to do some planning before you sit down to crank out that polished, final version of your work, but it will be the difference between a background and an environment.
From Blacksad (artist: Juanjo Guarnido)
From Hellboy (Mike Mignola)
Even if your draftsmanship isn’t that great (like mine), people can be more immersed in the story you tell if you just make it feel like there is a world that exists completely separate from the one in which they currently reside – not just making a backdrop the characters stand in front of.
Your creations live in a unique world, and it is as much a character as any other member of the cast. Make it as believable as they are.
Great comments and tutorials!
I’m a 3d artist and have been exploring the possibilities of using 3d as reference for 2d poses. I want to add a couple of tips and things!
Sketchup is very useful for environment references, and I assume it’s reasonably easy to learn. If you’re interested in going above and beyond, I highly recommend learning a proper 3d modeling program to help with art, especially because you can very easily populate a scene or location with characters!
Using 3ds Max I can pretty quickly construct an environment for reference. But going beyond that, I can also pose a pretty simple ‘CAT’ armature (known in 3d as a rig) straight into the scene, which can be totally customized, from various limbs, tails, wings, whatever, to proportions, and also can be modeled onto and expanded upon (for an example, you could 3d sculpt a head reference for your character and then attach it to the CAT rig, so you have a reference for complex face angles!)
The armature can also be posed incredibly easily. I know programs exist for stuff like this - Manga Studio, Design Doll - but posing characters in these programs is always an exercise in frustration and very fiddly imo. A simple 3d rig is impossibly easy to pose.
By creating an environment and dropping my character rig into it, I have an excellent point of reference when it comes to drawing the scene!
Not only that, but I can also view the scene from whatever angle I could ever want or need, including the character and their pose/position relative to the environment.
We can even quickly and easily expand this scene to include more characters!
Proper 3d modeling software is immensely powerful, and if you wanted to, you could model a complex environment that occurs regularly in your comic or illustration work (say, a castle interior, or an outdoor forest environment) and populate the scene with as many perspective-grounded characters as you need!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at this amazing addition! This is fantastic!
Not just poses, you can also do this with lighting. Playing with lights in Blender is pretty fun.
Another cool thing: http://www.makehumancommunity.org lets you generate a human model. Like a character creator in a game, but more flexible, and the result is ready to import into a 3d editor like Blender.
This was a lot shorter last time it appeared here. Reblogging for the updated tips and to save a life!

Well someone displeased the sky gods didn’t they
My first thought was someone pleased the sky gods, because this is a SHOW.
That’s the problem with gods; their pleasure and their wrath often look the same.
