You Thought It Was Just A Harmless Meme... You Thought The Crown Only Brought Joy And Arousal. You Thought

As the Sharkmaids draw closer to the odd creatures they soon increased 3 times their own size One believes it is a form of attack and assumes combat position, while the other believes it to be silly and cute. In reality though this is my friend Lightflower and her sister Marmalade in the shark-suits from Unison League Welp this weeks Live stream was a great success and to those that didn't see it. I'll be posting a speed paint video of it next week. Till then enjoy your lives and tell me what you think of this. Unison League is owned by A team

I know I'm not the first to make this a meme, but come on. the chemistry Your and Anya have on the show is so cute whether by themselves and together and this meme perfectly shows how much love is there. feel free to give me your critique and or compliments I really appreciate it

This will be a big help, thank you

Faces! Part 1- Specifically the ‘circle-thing’

Remember this? If you’ve done any classes or seen any tutorials, you’re bound to see this thing. I personally fell in love with it. It’s very easy to get a feel for the movement of the face & jaw, the general placement of the head and how the character will look.

There’s not too much of a wrong way to do it. Just remember this:

The circle is not the whole head, it only encompasses what would be your skull without the jaw attached (if you wanna draw a skull tho, you need a bit more than the circle. Those things are more complex than you think.)

Add a jaw before placing the guidelines. 

The neck connects to the jaw with a small pouch, important for profiles. (See an example below.)

The guidelines, to me, are really for seeing the width of the motion, the placement of the features. Occasionally, I don’t even use the guidelines. Sometimes I put features like the eyebrows, eyes, and mouth to remember the expression later when I go back and finish the linework (which tends to change slightly).

Use the guidelines in whichever way you want. I tend to do one of two things:

Put the eyes on the line, using the end of the triangle to find the end of the nose

Put the eyes under the line, using the triangle more for determining the size of the eyes and expression.

Whatever feels right it what you should do. More you fiddle with it the better you get:

Remember this when making expressions- squash and stretch.

The longer the jawline, the wider the mouth is, the thinner the face is.

Look at references of real people with different expressions. How does their face squash or stretch? 

Common expressions with stretch: Gasps, Yawns, Ear-to-Ear Smiles, Any Time They Yell.

Common expressions with squash: Pouts, Frowns, Closed-Mouth Smiles, Clenched Jaws, Furrowed Brows.

The only time I don’t make the circle first is when the head is tilted up and I need to see some of that little area under the jawline.

Reminder: This is my personal shortcut and what works for me might not work for you! Don’t worry if it doesn’t work for you!

I start with the jawline then curve up to the top of the head and make the circle last, just to get a feel for where everything will go and the curve of the head -I usually make the back of the head too small- then you can add the features. I suggest always connect the head to the neck before doing anything else.

(It all gets easier with practice.  Look at references- I don’t suggest looking up ‘drawing reference’ or you’ll get a bunch of drawings, which may help for in-style work, but, looking at real humans always beats drawings. look up ‘figure’ ‘face’ ‘head’ and ‘art reference’.)

A related point:

Children have tall foreheads and a small area for their facial features. I remember one tutorial that helped me with children was that you don’t put the eyes in the circle like you would with an adult/teen, but under it.

Welp, that’s about it. The best teacher is time, and the more you do it the better you get! Have fun and just keep at it!

Part 2 for faces: Guidelines & Features

Want to see more tutorials? Tell me what you’d like to see me cover. This confuse you or you’re stuck on something? Tell me and maybe show me what you’re working on and I can help to the best of my ability!

Alt-right homophobes are using 4chan to plan a terrifying cyber attack on the LGBT+ community during Pride month

Alt-right 4chan users are plotting to hijack LGBT+ Pride month by clogging social media with poisonous homophobia and boycotting supportive

Brace yourselves, everybody: The fascists of 4chan are planning an anti-LGBT social media blitz starting June 1 for Pride Month

Expect to see a lot of alt-right bots and sockpuppets doing everything possible to increase tension, division, and bad feelings in the LGBTQ+ community.

Basic guidelines:

Focus on your own goals and experiences for Pride Month—instead of just responding to the latest outrage, focus on connecting to people you care about, doing things you enjoy, promoting good causes, sharing media you like, or fundraising for organizations doing good work.

If you see someone promoting hateful or divisive opinions, don’t engage with them and boost their metrics—block and report them

Remember that a lot of troll operations aim to make us feel hopeless and divided. Trolls take our community’s existing vulnerabilities and divisions, and weaponize them. These trolls will be leaning hard on filling social media with new stories about homophobic and transphobic violence and suicide statistics, so we’re upset, in a defensive mentality, and feeling isolated and alone. We have to work together to promote solidarity and positivity.

Double-check news stories before spreading them. Be extra suspicious before you signalboost something. Screencaps can be fabricated; so can videos and images. Google for other sources, check reputable news sites, or look it up on Snopes

Don’t assume people are who they say they are. Trolls will especially assume identities they can use to promote division. They’ll pose as LGBT people so they can inflame infighting or attack LGBT people with fewer consequences, or to frame different groups for misdeeds.

Take care of yourself and don’t let them get you down. Pride 2020 has a huge damper because we can’t do a lot of the things that help us renew and recharge. Being in quarantine means we miss out on festivals, dancing, parades, performances, workshops, and important community-building events. We were already going to have to work to make it a decent Pride at a distance. 4chan wants to make things even worse, so that so we end up feeling paranoid, hypervigilant, abandoned, and at each other’s throats. Do your best to promote your own mental health and everybody else’s, and unplug from social media when you need to.

Pikmin was such a great game and this gave me good feels.

End of the day

This was done years ago when I asked Tamrin frog if she could take her boyfriend Whipple anywhere in the videogame world where would it be. And it was in Legend of Zelda WindWaker the private oasis, and I can tell why she would take him there. the place is so relaxing. anyway I would actually like to try a redraw of this when the next summer. a friend of mine gave me advice on the lighting. also if anyone else has some tips please let me know

God this is kawaii

When you see something you love online

Just something silly I’ve been wanting to animate with Tanrine
