Obviously Gacha Games Are Unethical In Their Very Premise And Frankly Shouldn't Exist And Should Never

art tutorial alignment chart

(my honest opnion)

personal alignment explanations below (warning looooooooong)

drawabox's got that lawful good aura to me. promising great improvement through a more rigid less flowy kinda drawing (boxes boxes boxes) yeah that's kinda lawful good ig. kinda resource for those who care for their drawings to look more accurate to perspective and proportion than just straight up wingin it dont have much to say about sinix. he's peak. he gets that neutral good label from me. morpho books by themselves would prooobably be lawful good (but less rigid more flowy) but i gave em the chaotic good label because that's the feel i get from the morpho fans themselves, who all preach about the greatness these books hold within their small thin compact travel sizes. it's partially because they're one of the very few books that actually teach about body fat (which is... kinda concerning if you really think about it. body fat is weirdly scarce among regular art tutorial books despite it having as much importance in the body as muscle and bone) and i put draw like a sir here because he himself has that chaotic good vibe. he teaches stuff (especially for beginners) REALLY well in a super easy to grasp manner and isn't afraid to be a bit humorous in his videos bob ross's pick is a lil weird, but lemme try to explain. his videos feel less like tutorials and more like... meditation i guess??? and i mean that's fine i guess. less for learning and more for unwinding by drawing along. we like a chill guy. i see less people on youtube use his videos to seriously learn and more people use his videos for extremely goofy art challenges lol. neutral in terms of educational value but lawful in terms of vibes ig lavendertowne is true neutral cuz i find her kiiiiinda mid. some of her videos are fine and there's a few interesting ones but most of them are kinda boring, there's better more interesting ones out there with similar subjects, especially on tutorials. bluebiscuit is also true neutral but a tier above lavendertowne. she's fine i dont hate her i guess her tutorials are nice for newbies and pretty accessible but still. there's videos with the same subjects as hers that i think are way better and more extensive ig true neutral (derogatory) and true neutral (affectionate) ethan becker, holy shit is this man chaotic neutral, both in personality and manner of teaching. he teaches some hyper-specific and potentially really useful skills for drawing anatomy and shape construction in a very simplified way (use the weirdly shaped triangle for everything) BUT the way he teaches it... god, he does it in the most drill-sergeant, nitpicky, push-you-down insults and spits on you kinda manner ever that it's actually kinda hard to actually retain the information you've learned in your brain even if you still remember how it went, somehow. i'd still recommend him but only if you enjoy being a masochist. there's prolly two kinda people who leave from an ethan becker tutorial: those who learn really fucking well from him, and those who felt so ashamed and insulted by him that their art progress and motivation just dropped by an entire year. megamegamikey... i mean, i havent watched his videos, but there's a good reason why i won't. i can just tell his tutorials are only for those who wish to draw anime girl tiddy gooner stuff, and not for learning actual serious anatomy (it's on the opposite side of the morpho books on the chart for a reason), and i dont wanna learn big bazoinga shit!!! if i wish to learn booba i will learn from the most accurate least sexy boingboing sourcessss!!!!!

also if you post a video with that as the title and thumbnail there's at least one thing VERY wrong with you and i will not trust your opinions on children and women anyways kooleen is neutral evil. i don't need an introduction. when i compare myself to her i actually develop pride and confidence from it instead of shame and envy like most cases because like. i feel so SMUG being able to draw and come up with much more interesting ideas than her. i can conjure up twisted beasts and floating vistas of wandering giants and the horrors of the self and gay fish yaoi from my rich and vast mind palace. she can only conjure up basic-bitch kpop boys and girls from her vaguely racist eurocentric-beauty-standard worldview. I am BEYOND her. I am STRONGER than her. I am SMARTER and more CREATIVE than her. I am more CHARMING and FUNNY than her. I am OBJECTIVELY better than her in EVERY SINGLE WAAAYYYYYY (evil laugh)

and last but not least. i think those how to draw manga books are on the same level of "if i give this to you as a christmas present i really fucking hate you" as these things

(only how to draw manga guy that's actually kinda good is mark crilley. he's not the best but he's an alright starting point. along with morpho he's also got the only tutorial books that actually teach about drawing fat people (though only for a few pages. it's still a very kind-hearted gesture, especially since anime casts tend to lean towards super skinny so i kinda saw that he wanted those who learned his wisdom to change that lol) whhheheheenrhbefdushid i loev art

flirting vs harassment

first time i ever realized the gradient tool in paint tool sai was actually spelled "gradation" for some bizarre reason

kinda fucked up how Ronald Reagan is a completely valid Homestuck troll name

shoutout to that one time where a pinterest folder just titled “creepy dude” with only exactly one image saved on it suddenly spawned into existence among my personal heavily curated collection of pin folders for some godforsaken reason

was my pinterest account haunted

it's funny seeing twitter being so heavily engaged in something that feels so utterly and strangely tumblr. this kinda shit would've been like, normal tumblr shenanigans like five years ago lol

those horse race tests i keep seeing popping off on twitter are basically just a new flavor of those algodoo marble races/stickman ragdoll survival competitions i kept seeing like 12 years ago. good times

to make this even funnier, when i looked up “care bears grumpy” and “care bears funshine” on google the first results on both of them were literally “grumpy x funshine”

i found a very sparse amount of fanart with them that was genuinely pretty damn cute.

Most literal example on display. Love wins

whenever i look through stuff about shipping dynamics and someone mentions “the grumpy and sunshine” dynamic I legit cant think of anything else but the fuckin names of those two care bears

seriously i literally cant avoid it

funniest fanfiction moment gotta be when i found a danganronpa fanfic that confidently claimed in its description that it was, for all intents and purposes, “better than the official games”. and then the first chapter had Ibuki calling Byakuya Togami a redditor

she looks so disappointed and sad in that boring skimpy ass maid-esque outfit, like she doesn’t want to be here. like she got shrunk into a doll and a little girl shoved her in the most awkward uncomfortable princess dress ever that’s now making her sad. this is supposed to be her super stronk SSS-rank form and yet these were the clothes she was given, looks like the uniform for a side-hustle she’s sick of instead of her super-powered kickass side. Looks like she’s gonna clean the dishes instead of clean the battlefield of its enemies. I can feel the resentment she has towards the character designers hired to work on her through the screen. girl whyyyy. she’s lookin at me like 🥺. whyyyyyy

biggest character design downgrade ever smfh

anby WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU BRO—
