Oh My Gosh, It’s Amazing?!

Um.. hi, I justwantedtorecommendcoolcartoonandithasenglishsubtitles Metal Family!

Ok, I had problems understanding this xDDD Actually I love Metal Family! <3 

“Something in Common.”

Some more exploration on Stevens recovery. I always thought Steven could have used more friends his age, and Peedee was always such a high contender in my opinion. He really stuck with me after Frybo aired. His more extreme character traits being cynicism and prone to hysterics is such a good foil for optimistic Steven, although those may or may not have mellowed out by SUF. I noticed a little something about the Fry family, and thought it would be fun to give Peedee some backstory that Steven could empathize with.

In SU classic, there were a few scenes that implied Steven and Peedee still hung out, but like, off screen, and he was always really busy with work. They probably only grew more distant once Little Homeschool kicked up, so I wanted to circle back and have them catch up– something Steven would have absolutely done during his recovery.

last man standing challenge 2020

 are you trying to write during quarantine but can’t seem to get motivated? do you like friendly competition, active discord servers with fun bots, and a reason to write every day?

well, then, welcome to the last man standing challenge!

how does this work? wtf even is this?

simple! starting on may 10th, you write 500 words a day, until you give up, or fail to write that much. the competition continues indefinitely, until there’s only one person left writing. that’s it!

seriously? that seems almost too simple.

nope, that’s it! 

so i can write anything for this?

here’s what qualifies and what doesn’t:

YOU CAN WRITE:

fanfic

original fiction

original nonfiction (cannot be assigned for school)

essays (cannot be assigned for school)

YOU CAN’T WRITE:

anything that was assigned schoolwork BESIDES assigned creative writing

everyday writing (shopping lists, emails, snail mail)

work related writing 

how do you know that i’ve written the required amount every day? and do i have to post my writing anywhere?

we’re on the honours system here, all you have to do is tell me that you wrote! in our server, we’ll have a channel just for saying ‘hey, i wrote!’ if you’re not in the server, just dm me on tumblr to say ‘hey, i wrote!’ 

as for posting, you’re encouraged to post on here or on ao3, depending on what you write, but it’s not at all required. if you post, please mention @bmc-gift-exchange so I can see your post! 

this sounds great! how do i sign up?

right here! it’s a super simple signup form, and once you sign up you’ll be sent the discord server link, it’s that easy!

make sure you reblog when you sign up, and tell your friends, so we can have as many people as possible!

any questions? send an ask or dm me! 

Do you really wanna kill me? Even if i will drink water i will definitely die... Varian is too stubborn

Ok, now that “Labyrinths of the Heart” is finished, it’s time for a...

DRINKING GAME!

Take a shot every time Varian says “It’s not my fault! / It’s your fault!”

No, don’t do it: you’ll kill yourself!

Mystery Skulls Animated is a great thing @mysterybensmysteryblog and @artsyfeathersartsyblog make. Support them and buy a billion T-Shirts, god damn it.

So you might be saying: Lion why a guide on drawing black people? Well young blood it’s because a lot of people cant…seem…to draw…black people..Amazing I know. 

Racist (caricatures) portrayals of black people have been around forever, and to this day people can’t seem to draw black people like they are human. If your artwork resembles any of the above even remotely your artwork is racist and offensive. If you try to excuse that as a stylistic choice you’re not only a terrible artist, but racist too!!! Congrats.

Whitewashing is also a problem. A lot of people refuse to draw black features on canonly black characters. While this example isn’t colored, lightening the skin-tone of a character is also considered whitewashing. So lets start with features!

Now all black people have different noses thats a no-brainer, but black noses tend to have flatter bridges, and wider nostrils. Please stay from triangular anime noses and small button noses. Your drawings should not depict black people with abnormally large noses. (Especially if you do not draw other characters this way)

If you feel like the way you draw lips on black characters is offensive or resembles a caricature,it probably does and you should change it. ABSOLUTELY AVOID PLACING LIPS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FACE. 

Hair is so diverse! Please get used to drawing braids, locs,kinks and coils! If you can learn to draw ringlets and long waves you can learn how to draw black hairstyles.

Add clips! Learn how to draw baby-hairs and never be afraid to add color Pinterest and Google are free my dudes! Also try using square brushes for blocking in coils.

OK THAT’S ALL YOU GUYS
