THEN THIS SHIT HAPPENED ON 45 PITY

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.

Lmao poor Jason

funnier in my head but we're all thinking the same thing, right? jason:

Yuder, casually: You are the only one who can command me. I never even thought about throwing out any gifts you've ever given me even when I felt conflicted over you. The only future I see is the one where you are in-

Kishiar:

I want one now ;-;

Someone in my fb chicken group has a little bearded bantam that likes to sit on shoulders so they did a pirate photoshoot and I am losing it

Just look at it!! THE LITTLE HAT!!!

You know what I’m actually not done ranting bc the danmei fandoms on tiktok keep driving me fucking nuts. This rant’s topic is the godawful ”lan wangji would burn the world for wei wuxian” type edits i see on tiktok and i want to scream and bite everytime i see one and not for a good reason. Like did you miss the part of the book where when wwx died lwj took all that love and grief that he had for him and used it to actually better the world? He loved wwx so much that he not only raised the son wwx left behind but also became a teacher and a role model for the other juniors across clans so that he could teach them the values wwx taught him and the values the world lacked and that caused wwx to be driven to death essentially. He wanted the next generation (of lans especially) to not blindly believe in authority figures, to not believe rumors and to question things and think for themselves so that no one would have to be scorned for protecting ppl like wwx was. Lwj loved wwx so much that he gained a reputation for ”being where the chaos is” bc he wanted to help the less fortunate like wwx wanted to, knowing that the big clans often only help richer ppl who can pay for their services.

If lwj wanted to burn the world don’t you think he would’ve done it when wwx actually did die in the story? But see how he didn’t do that? Instead he used the love he had for wwx to transform the world into a better place, bc it was a world wwx loved and a world he arguably died defending. Wwx loved the world & the ppl in it sm that he died standing up for what he knew was right and not budging even when he was pushed to his utter limits. Knowing all of that, do you think lwj could burn down the world? Do you think wwx would want him to? No i didn’t think so.

Also also ppl have got to stop saying that lwj ”waited” for wwx and erasing the actual tragedy of their story which is that wwx wasn’t just gone, he died. He died and he wasn’t coming back and lwj knew that. He didn’t look for him for all of those years (idk where that idea came from) nor was he waiting around for wwx to come back. It was sheer dumb luck and some amount of evil scheming that brought wwx back but let’s not kid ourselves when we say there were a lot of moving pieces in that plan and absolutely 0 guarantee that wwx would succesfully come back to life.

I forgot I have to be active here so here’s my Twitter tutorial on how to draw folds I made a while back to help a friend!

fem aven… again… (smiles)
