Cray23artblog - A Wild Carrot Wondering Around

...let's just say I will still have a long way to go before becoming better but anyways (@skeletoninthemelonland is it okay if II tag you at every single one of these btw?)

this comic with this sound has been on my mind for a good while ngl

i shiver at the thought of being suddenly responsible for thousands of people-

ALR ALR CHILL

so like, this would be a steampunk vs magic kinda au. We have the "surface" and the "underground", but they are really just surnames, they are not under-over each other (is that grammatically correct? Anyways) and our Dreamy boiii, who is the leader of the Surface, goes undercover to the Underground to search for his long lost brother to bring him back. What he doesn't know is that Nm is literally leading the other side.

In the Underground, it is the more person friendly place, but everybody has to give up something to prove themselves. Killer sold his soul to Nightmare, Dust killed his brother, Horror gave up his life (quite literally, then he was revived), Error gave up his sanity, Cross gave up his sight (he's like, all blind to his white eye, more than half blind to his red one), Epic, who joined because of Cross, gave up his magic, by executing his left eye. Nightmare himself gave up his morality, but despite that, he is still a good leader.

When Dream goes through, he first meets Dust, who shows him around, and asks for him to give up something. Dream, not expecting that, has nothing really that he wants to give up, so he runs away and hides instead, still searching for his brother.

The Surface is controlled by the government, and those who aren't part of it live in literal hell. They want to destroy the Underground, leaded by Ink, who knows whats happening out there, but doesn't care anyway, and Dream, who has no idea his people are dying, and believes the other side tortures his own people. Blue is Dream's bodyguard, who, despite being from out there, cannot tell him what is happening, because Ink threatened him. XGaster is helping Ink in his researches, as his son with the most potential fleed from him while killing his brothers, and now wants revenge.

Sci could be the head of making the governments robotics, and with that being the general of their army as he is the one who knows best how to control the robots.

Dream would eventually find Nightmare, argue with him about their people, Dream would finally open his eyes, and while that, the Underground would be attacked by the Surface. Nightmare would lose his corruption thanks to a magic sucking bullet that hits his right eye, and the Underground, without a leader, would be bound to falling down. That would be when Dream decides he finishes what his brother started, and gives up his soul by becoming the corruption itself, Shattered. They would win the war, the government would be destroyed, and Nightmare would wake up from his coma after everything.

*Expodes and faints*

We need more Sci appreciation

Specifically of the scifi genre

Clean surfaces and AI (the cool kind like R2D2 and Connor from Detroit Become Human) and superstructures

I wanna see Sci working with interfaces and joining couplings and sautering panels in the walls

I want to see him program and tinker with sleek robotic beings and get augments

I want to see his arm replaced with a futuristic prosthetic and his eyes replaced with synthetic ones

And i want to see him go to a dark seedy underbelly to buy parts that have stopped being produced

And BUILD his own brother

We’ll have to do dinner Thursday night instead.

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

who else up hurkleing their durkleing

Unmedicated gay guy

Y'know what sounds about right /j

@wr-n come do this

from now on your tumblr nickname is whatever you get from this sexual identity generator  ☆

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)

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

Aaron Rutten (free)

BoroCG (free)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free)

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)

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)

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

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. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are 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)

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)

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

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Libresprite (free, for pixel art)

Those are the ones I can recall.

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.
