Reblog If You're Not Homophobic

I was debating pre- and post- smartphone existentialism with an older gentleman today and he stopped part way through and said “Why are you a security guard? Why aren’t you teaching this at some college somewhere?” And I didn’t know what to say so I went with “Well I used to make art but nobody pays an artist”

hey i saw a bunch of mutuals rbing this art so im just gonna put it out there that op is a violent transphobe and open terf

THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE!

This is how you do a blog up to where you can still read and NOT get blocked. This gives me all the info I need to know you’re not a pornbot/spambot.

Newbies to Tumblr, this is all we ask. Let us know you aren’t a bot!

Many thanks to you @livinginlilaccove - you get a gold star ⭐️ for your excellent blog setup!

hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

happy PRIDE i’m here i’m queer and i believe the land should be given back to the proper indigenous stewards.

My subjects, may you use this information wisely 🗡

I don't know who needs to hear this

But if you go into the comments section on AO3

And type

Then replace image url (keep the " marks) with the url of a picture

You can leave fan art in the comments of a fic

the walking polar bear gif is already one of my favourite gifs so can you imagine the noise I made when I saw this version

ALL OF THEM PLEASE!!! 😬

my brother is like chill but he isn't like huge on Akechi, which is FINE but he and I were talking about it and he was like, "GOD. I hate that guy. Betrayed my gay trust" AND I TURNED MY HEAD TO LOOK AT MY BROTHER WHO I THOUGHT WAS STRAIGHT and I died

I died

I feel like tumblr should have "betrayed my gay trust" to use in every scenario.

reminder since we're gettin another wave of bots:

if you don't distinguish yourself from a bot, just any sorta indication that a human made the blog, like a funny pfp or description, or even a disclaimer that you're a lurker, then you're almost certainly gonna be blocked n reported for spam when you follow people
