i worry that wider tumblr is gonna do that thing where a joke gets divorced from its context and this situation is going to go from being known as "tumblrs horrific transmisogyny and the ceos childish response" to just "haha the ceo had a meltdown about a loony tunes esque post"
i think when some of you say "neurodivergent" you just mean adhd and autism
Honestly find it more than a little annoying the Starbucks boycott has gotten so much attention despite not being on the BDS list at all, even as a non-targeted boycott. And don't get wrong: fuck Starbucks, don't buy their shit, but also make sure you're boycotting the things that are, y'know, actually a target of BDS.
Any Tips on how to go about foreshortening?
Haha! No but seriously, I personally wing it. But Iāll do my best to explain my process! First, letās take the art that I ~think~ influenced this ask:
So in order to figure out the perspective, I always have to have a 1) a head to refer to. Then itās very important to 2) mark the general area to the head that you want the hand to be. 3) shoulder! 4) make a line of action that you want the torso to follow and mold the shape around it.
Thereās also the tube method! Think about arms/legs as shapes, specifically. Most of the time the reason why people struggle with foreshortening is because they try to attack the details before attacking the shape. Donāt do that! Youāll trip yourself every time. Shape first, detail second. Youāll also notice that a forearm has more mass towards the elbow, and thighs are a lot bigger than you think when the leg is bending! Which brings me into my next thing.
FIGURE STUDY!! STUDY THAT FIGURE! If youāre able to take classes, DO IT and donāt choose a basic seat! Challenge yourself! If you canāt take classes, use yourself as reference or find websites/videos specifically for academic figure study. Draw what you see and not what you know. Look up what a quick pose/gesture drawing is, and if thereās tutorials.
Getting to know the body and its muscles is a VERY powerful tool. Sorry to be a broken record, but the basics are important for a reason. So many artists say āpractice,ā but I donāt think enough say āobserve.ā Because thatās literally all that I do and I stare long enough to try and put it to paper. Observe other people! The details! Notice the absence of flat surfaces, how we think we know the body but we donātā
Ack! Sorry, a lot of these tutorials I give always end in me spilling my passion for figure study. But yeah! Observation, placement, shapes, and uh⦠winging it! Really thatās all that art is. Itās sure to help with foreshortening.
I hope this helps!
