I Knew About This Moment But Why Didn't Anybody Tell Me First Few Seconds Were From Zoro's Pov?

zolu nonsense from twt. so i call u illegirl

when a ship involves one character being so utterly devoted to the other that its borderline religious????? when the devoted character is written to be seen as a sinner, or damned, or a non believer??? and the other character an angel or god-like???? i simply eat that shit UP how can you not??

absolutely incredible commission i received from the amazingly talented @crezz-star !!!

Y'all Lázaro stans are going to enjoy a bunch of extra content of them in the extended demo... 👀👀

"they hated Jesus bc he spoke the truth"

in love with how touchy he is

Just had a wholesome thought: Okay, say that Aventurine finally heals completely and gets to return to the ocean... Would he be able to drag Ratio into the sea with him and take him for a swim? Of course, they wouldn't be able to go too far since Ratio's a human, but maybe Aventurine is gonna try showing off some tricks to impress Ratio? Maybe?

well, since it's the end of mermay i guess it's fitting to send merventurine back to the ocean (not that this series is over, it's more of a milestone than an epilogue)

Can't afford art school?

After seeing post like this 👇

And this gem 👇

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.

Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.

📺Here is my list:

Proko (Free, mostly teaches anatomy and how to draw people. But does have art talks and teaches the basics.)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard and teaches you everything)

Aaron Rutten (free, tips about art, talks about art programs and the best products for digital art)

BoroCG (free, teaches a verity of art mediums from 3D modeling to digital painting. As well as some tips that can be used across styles)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free, teaches digital painting and has classes in Spanish)

Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)

Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price. Mostly teaching character designs and simple backgrounds.)

SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)

Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)

The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney. Mostly nature art)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Sinix Design (has some tips on drawing people)

Winged canvas (art school for free on a verity of mediums)

Bob Ross (just a good time, learn how to paint, as well as how too relax when doing art. "there are no mistakes only happy accidents", this channel also provides tips from another artist)

Scott Christian Sava (Inspiration and provides tips and advice)

Pikat (art advice and critiques)

Drawbox (a suggested cheap online art school, made of a community of artist)

Skillshare (A cheap learning site that has art classes ranging from traditional to digital. As well as Animation and tutorials on art programs. All under one price, in the USA it's around $34 a month)

Human anatomy for artist (not a video or teacher but the site is full of awesome refs to practice and get better at anatomy)

Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.

📚Here is my list:

The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.

"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.

"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.

"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.

"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.

"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.

"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.

"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.

"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.

Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.

📝As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. If you want to go fancy Michaels is always a good place for traditional supplies. They also get in some good sales and discounts. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are usually more expensive.

For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.

💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.

Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates. Galaxy, Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone, Android, or Chromebook device. )

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99 usd, IPAD & IPHONE ONLY)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, animation and more. Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Aseprite ($19.99 usd but has a free trail, for pixel art Windows & macOS)

Drawpile (free and for if you want to draw with others)

IbisPaint (free, phone app ONLY)

Medibang (free, IPAD, Android and PC)

NOTE: Some of these can work on almost any computer like Clip and Sai but others will require a bit stronger computer like Blender. Please check their sites for if your computer is compatible.

So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.

I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.

Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

If Limbo had some kind of formal dance that everyone goes to, would the LIs ask the MC to go or would any of them just assume MC knows they're going together and makes a mess of it on the night because MC isn't prepared?

✦ The LIs and a formal dance in Limbo!

Limbo has a formal dance! It's hosted every year by the Grand Houses to celebrate the current Master's mandate. Not everyone goes, but you'll see in game :^}

✦ Amon: Indeed, assumes the MC knows they're going with him and freaks out when he finds out they haven't bought any new, shiny, expensive clothes. Probably would wake up the whole palace so someone thinks of a solution—and pays everyone generously for bothering their rest.

✦ Raeya: Hates, hates, HATES, the annual ball, but she has to attend. She hopes and prays something comes up and she's excused, but it has never happened so far lol. She wouldn't ask the MC because in her eyes it's tedious and a waste of time—it's exhausting and she doesn't want the MC to have to go through that. If the MC asks, though...she at least will have a good reason to attend.

✦ Gael: Oh, he's one of the hosts! And the ball is in his honor! He would of course ask the MC to be his partner during the whole celebration and as the Master he gets the first dance to inaugurate the dance floor, and he obviously would choose the MC as his dance partner :^} He'd be very nervous but absolutely elated!

✦ Envy: Well. They can't attend, so...Would suggest the MC goes with their siblings to enjoy the experience. Loved attending when they were invited.

✦ Ara: Would ask the MC as soon as the invitations arrive! She usually designs and makes her own clothes with Gael's help for every ball, so she'd ask the MC if they want to wear matching clothes. She also supervises the catering for the ball so she'd surely sneak some of the MC's favorites in the menu.

✦ Xal: Usually hates attending but sees this as an opportunity to prove himself to the MC. He'd be practicing in front of the mirror how to properly ask the MC to attend as, well, he has never brought a partner to the ball before. Probably would ask Gael to teach him how to dance for the occasion, too.

✦ Father Pride: He attends, but he has a special spot on a balcony where he oversees the whole thing. People pay their respects to him, but he does not participate in mundane things like eating, socializing and dancing. He wouldn't ask the MC to join him because it's boring and he wants them to experience the ball—but would love to dance with them on their little balcony, away from everyone.

✦ Lázaro: Would love to go if they actually could! Hard to when they're on a different realm of existence fkdkfkkgg

✦ Cécile: Has to fulfill his duty as Gael's bodyguard, so he keeps to the shadows as per usual to do it and takes it very seriously. Gael always insists on him taking it easy for a night and enjoying the ball, so he may do it if the MC and the Master insist enough. Would actually have a lovely time and would feel normal for a night.
