I hate it when you’re reading smut and you can’t figure out what position they’re in.

oh dear my hands slipped and accidentally spent hours drawing owl ratio

(no i didnt i have been thinking about this for months)

I want to tell a story to the artists and would-be artists out there.

When I was 19, I made a large oil painting of the nerd I would eventually marry. I poured all my attention and care into this painting. It's the only art I have from back then that still holds up as a work I'm proud of today.

I entered it into a judged show at the local art center. It got an honorable mention. I went to see the show with my beloved model. One of the judges came up to talk to me, and highlighted that all the judges really liked the painting. It would have placed, except, you see, the feet were incorrect. They were too wide and short, and if I just studied a bit more anatomy-

I called over my future wife, and asked her to take off her shoe. Being already very used to humoring me, she did. The judge looked at her very short, very wide little foot. Exactly as I'd lovingly rendered it. I would never edit her appearance in any way.

The judge looked me in the eye, and to his credit, he really looked like he meant it when he said "Oh I'm so sorry."

Anyways the moral of the story is that all of those anatomy books that teach you proportions are either showing you averages, or a very specific idea of an idealized body. Actual bodies are much more varied than that.

So don't forget to draw from observation, and remember that humans aren't mass produced mannequins. Delight in our variation. Because it's supposed to be there.

May I suggest a geminislay warmup doodle?

Im in the long process of watching Grian's world tour video-

And I think this is the first time I've really ever "met" Joehills. I've known he was a member of the server for a long time, and that in the fanart he is a muppet (????), but I've never really seen him or listened to him speak before.

My god, he is WAY MORE casually unhinged than I EVER could have predicted.

"Oh yeah, here's a build that's so large I'm afraid I'll lose ya Grian if you wander off, but guess what? This isn't even the actual build! It's ONE EIGHTH of my actual overworld build that is SO ENORMOUS that you can't fit it on a map of the server 😊"

"This is a representation of Finnish American architect (Insert the name he said because I have no clue how to spell that 💀) vision for the bell laboratory's research and development campus-" *continues to adorably ramble all nerd like*

"Yeah, so because they did that, I basically filled their backyard with approximately 1.5 million stone over the course of the last 5 weeks :p"

*a few months after The Ithaca Saga*

Odysseus: *wakes up at the dead of night drenched in cold sweat*

Penelope: Love? What's wrong?

Odysseus: That prophet son of a bitch- IT WAS ME!

Penelope: What??

Odysseus: I WAS THE MAN WHO WAS HAUNTING ALL ALONG!!

Penelope: *pulling him down and hugging him* ok dear just go back to sleep.

*meanwhile in the Underworld*

Tiresias: Fucking finally that dumbass

This is how Shen yuan learned English for sure
