Nice summary. If you’re curious, the anon here is referring to studies over the last decade that have pointed to major impacts on pattern separation with depression, and how depression can have major impacts on nonsynaptic plasticity.

How To Know You're Aromantic

Trying to figure out if your aromantic can be hard, and recently one of my friends had a thought that they could be aromantic so this post is for them. We will first try to define romantic attraction.

What Is Romantic Attraction? To put it simply, when you are romantically attracted to someone, you want to do romantic things with them. Now this definition doesn't really give us much information. To use a better definition, romantic attraction is when you desire to be emotionally close to someone. This desire to be emotionally close shouldn't be confused with the desire to be emotionally close with friends. To distinguish the two, desire to be emotionally close with friends is when you want to share secrets with someone and cuddle and be able to tell anything. The desire to be romantically emotionally close with someone is the desire for them to be there no matter what and like the previous relationship, want to do romantic coded things with them. Also, romantically emotionally close is when you want to be closer than friends are. Not everything is coded with romance. Wanting to hold hands could be sensual (wanting to just touch someone 'cause you can) or it could be romantic (wanting to be emotionally close with them).

How To Know You're Aromantic ° You are fine with not having a relationship at all except for friends

° You don't understand when people (not media) talks about falling in love

° You often think that love just isn't for you

° People call you cold hearted when you reject them because you do it with no regard to their romantic feelings

° You don't see the point of romantic relationships

° You see a long term partner as more of a friend

° You think that you might have commitment issues

Things That Don't Make You Not Aromantic • Wanting to touch someone (hold hands, cuddle, etc). That can come under sensual attraction

• Feeling butterflies in your stomach around someone. Butterflies happen when your nervous and you can get nervous for events or around people your sexually attracted to

• Not minding being in a romantic relationship. For some aromantics, we are fine with doing romantic things as often it involves no emotions for us

• Liking romantic media. You can read and watch romantic books and shows and that doesn't make you any less aromantic

• Liking the idea of romance. To quote Cavetown "often I am upset that I can not fall in love" and this is definitely true for aromantics who like the idea of romance.

Disclaimer!!! You could be aromantic and not experience any of this or on the flip side you could be alloromantic (not aromantic) and experiences all of this. Some people are late bloomers and if you are a teenager you should keep this in mind. I'm not saying to can't identify as aromantic as a teenager, just that you should keep in mind that some people are late bloomers.

Trying to draw buildings

[archive7481465]

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!

[moorecolinart-deactivated201810]

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.

reblog to save a life

[bludragongal]

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.

[shatterstag]

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!
