Spider-gang Into The MCU Headcanons Part 2

july ‘19 vs september ‘19 

idk if i’ll ever go more in-depth about each of the topics (because,, there’s a LOT of stuff to cover,, o<-<) but for now i just wanted to put this up anyways!! :,-o 

Alright time for some honesty thats going to make my follower count go down but I don't care. Hate me. But a post I read made me realize I need to bring this up.

I complain a lot about Donny Cates and his comics because its the best way to reach agreements on here. This whole run is concidered terrible so I'm going to be honest. I don't say the things I like about the comics because I'm afraid of conflict over it. However, I've already been questioned once for this and I will be questioned again so its time to come clean and be hated. I buy the comics. Which apparently is a sin in this fandom and I will only ever be judged for it.

Know why I do it? Because there are elements I like along with the elements I hate. And I just need to get that off my chest because I don't want to feel bad for it. I get enraged easily and will go off on rants, but I'm also pleased easily. So its time for me to list a few things not all that I actually like about these comics and I will be fine when my follower count drops. (Also a Silver Surfer note)

Dylan and Normies dynamic is really fun and I love them. Sleepers added protective behavior of Dylan just makes it all the better because imagine him trying his best to babysit Dylan and Normie and it all goes to shit two seconds later. I love it.

Grendel dragon. MMMMMMMM. I love this dragon and he's beautiful and also part of Beowolf I just love him.

Darkness. I don't know how to explain this other than a couple dsrk twists are enjoyable. Sure he added too many but still I would love it if it was just one or two twists. Like if it was only the cancer involving Venom trying to keep Eddie... Thats a dark bump in the road J can get behind.

And to Ryan Stegman... ART IS A YEEEEEES

Just Dylan in general I mean hes my son and he's great.

Them covers are sometimes great. Though the varients are what I live for.

Follower count: 359

Waiting for that to drop.

howdy!! i really enjoyed that stimmy leo pic!! how did you do the hand flap motion??

Hi, thank you so much!!! To learn how to draw hand flapping, I recommend studying animation smears.

Rise uses this technique a lot, pause just about any fast-paced sequence and you’re sure to find smear references!

That being said, I drew this little tutorial up real quick to show how I do it:

I hope that helps!!

I saw Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse a few days ago.

Great movie. 20/10, would recommend.

Now, here’s the thing about the fanbase, though. I’ve seen a lot of people shipping Spider-Ham and Spider-Man Noir, and I’m not hating on it (cause I’ve got plenty of weird ships), but like… I think you guys are forgetting about another potential ship…

Now, the question is… What would their ship name be?

HH Theory: Angel and Valentino

So, those who’ve seen the prequel comic on the Hazbin Hotel website know that Angel was/is working for a powerful Pimp named Valentino

ad Valentino, as you can see from above, is an @$$hole.

Now, I know the #1 theory we have regarding him is “maybe Angel’s at the hotel looking for a way out of Val’s clutches,” BUT….then the next day, the pilot came out…and in the opening, we see THIS:

Viv, is VERY CLEVER in her story plot-hook delivery. She DELIBERATELY included this after releasing those first seven prequel pages knowing the fans would NOTICE and put 2 and 2 together that Angel IS still working for Val, and that Val’s just as much of a controlling, dominating abusive boss as presented in the only two pages of him we’ve seen so far…and not ONLY has it got us hooked on how that can effect Angel’s character development, but also, let’s keep in mind ONE OTHER DETAIL OR TWO:

Valentino does NOT like it when Angel is outside the Pron studio. As far as he’s concerned, Angel’s a PORN ACTOR….HIS porn actor, and NOTHING MORE, probably to keep him from getting hurt and “damaging the goods” so to speak. However, we DOn”T KNOW is Valentino knows that Angel’s at the hotel…AND we all KNOW that Angel’s little turf battle with Cherri and Pentious was broadcast ALL OVER HELL

Sooooo….

-What deal did Angel make to get out of the studio? Or did he make a deal at all?

-How will Valentino react to Angel’s “turf war” shenanigans and Angel being at the hotel?

-How will Valentino’s involvement in Angel’s life while at the hotel effect Angel’s story arc?

SO MANY QUESTIONS!! O3O

Angel Dust, Valentino and Hazbin Hotel belong to @vivziepop​

Some advice for drawing people who have both hair… and horns!! :O

Also, you may feel more comfortable drawing the whole horn first, and that’s fine too! Mostly the point is just to try to draw the hair growing around the horn, rather than under it.

Hope this helps!

HOLY FREE ART PROGRAMS BATMAN

I’ve had this list sitting around for a while (in case I ever want to try something new) and I thought I’d share it, because why the hell not, everybody loves free stuff. I’ve only used a couple, so for all I know these could be complete shit. BUT YOU NEVER KNOW, RIGHT?

*= available for both windows and mac os

GIMP * - Does a lot of the same stuff as Photoshop.

FireAlpaca * - Similar to Paint Tool Sai, so it’s a good alternative for Mac users.

Autodesk Sketchbook Copic Edition * - Simulates the look of copic markers.

MyPaint * - Basic stuff, nothing fancy.

Pinta * - Drawing program modeled after paint.NET.

Inkscape * - Vector/drawing program meant to be similar to Illustrator.

ArtRage * - Digital painting program; you can get the trimmed down version for free or buy the full version with more features.

Sumo Paint * - In-browser drawing app.

DAZ Studio * - Some sort of 3D model poser thing.

Pencil * - Software for animating.

SketchUp * - Tool for making 3D models. Looks handy for stuff like architectural drawings.

Blender * - Pretty popular 3D software.

escape motions * - Some browser apps, fun to fiddle with when you’re bored (the fluid fire simulation is pretty cool imo).

Twistedbrush (Pixarra) - Seems to be meant for replicating the look of traditional media.

Pixia/Phierha - A popular program in Japan, according to the website.

Krita - This was originally made for Linux and it looks like the developers haven’t ironed out all of the kinks in the Windows installer.

Artweaver - Another trimmed down free thing if you don’t want to buy the full program.

paint.NET - Pretty basic kit, probably good for simple stuff.

Project Dogwaffle - I’m not sure what this one is all about because I couldn’t stop laughing at the terrible website.

Speedy Painter - Lightweight digital painting program.

mtPaint - Originally made for pixel art; simple enough to run on older computers.

Chasys Draw IES - Supposed to be some sort of drawing+image editor thing.

PaintRibbon - Seems to be another plain old basic image editor.

DrawPlus - Looks like it’s made for graphic design and vector stuff.

SmoothDraw - I’m guessing this is a basic thing for people who don’t want to bother with complicated stuff.

where do u get the inspiration for the people in ur fab art? do u use references, if so where from? :)

Honestly from all over the place! Most commonly nowadays, I flip through a bunch of art/photos on twitter or instagram.  I especially take advantage of the “saved” feature on instagram, which lets me look at a bunch of really pretty pictures at once.  Here’s some examples of what that might look like, with the artist’s @ ’s added in. Warning, big photo dump incoming––and it’s only a fraction of the total number that I actually have, which is definitely around 2000 or so.

I’ll also save a lot of art (read: about 800 pics at this point) to a folder on my computer.  Recently, quite a few of these have been coming from twitter; here’s a few examples of artists that I’ve had a soft spot for (handles included):

I tend to go absolutely nuts with finding stuff that inspires me, but I wouldn’t necessarily spend excessive time on it––when I say go nuts, I mean that I have a sustained interest in seeking out inspiration.  The pics I have were collected over the course of five years or so, and the ones from near the beginning are somewhat different from recent ones. 

If you’re trying to build up a collection, you likely don’t need to spend hours a day searching for this stuff (even more than twenty or thirty minutes is probably too much, unless you’re explicitly doing concept work and you need tons of references). If, while browsing tumblr or instagram or twitter, you come across a picture that really strikes you as beautiful, just save it. Over months and years of selecting choice pictures, you’ll eventually cultivate a taste in art/photos/whatever that will definitely affect the development of your style as you keep making art. Sort of a side benefit of this whole ordeal.

Have another little drawing :)
