Awww yeah, this ended up being a productive week after all! And what’s more, I’m actually pretty pleased with the first three custom Aequis layouts.
Top is a desert type based on a rufous legged owl, second is a mountain type based on a lammergeier, and third is a mountain type based on an osprey.
Next, color studies/last custom layout!
The hype for BNHA and Sun&Moon is real
Dan Green (Yugi Muto) Interview - Yu-Gi-Oh! THE DARK SIDE OF DIMENSIONS
Dan Green is the best Retro Voice Actor!
You’ve asked me a lot for a centaur tutorial but I absolutely suck at doing stuff like that because I rely so much on my own eye measuring and I almost never do sketches like this, so bear with me. 1: The horse body!
I managed to break down the body into lots of triangles and lines and what have you, in a way that I find easy and accurate to use. This is the body of Dan, (an english full blood) but it’s really easy to alter between breeds! For example, I used this when doing the lineup, take two of the most altered ones:
2: Put some meat on it
Keep in mind that if you have no idea how to draw then you probably should just drop this because as you can see I’m skipping ahead assuming you know how to meat a stick figure, and also have a ground feeling of what a horse really should look like. But it’s starting to take shape, doesn’t it? The tip of the withers should be around the tip of the hip. 3: Legs and hooves
Make sure you don’t make the knees and hocks too defined (if you want to draw a full grown horse will say. It works on younger horses and foals though!) And also not like noodles. Watch out for making the hind legs too curved or too straight when standing properly.
You want your hooves to be balanced, keep that in mind! 4: Add the human body
You’ve got a nice red line there to keep track of the spine. Dan’s human part is slim and a bit smaller, which adds to his rather big but slender breed. Now of course I’m still assuming that you know how to draw humans as well. That’s what it’s about, draw loads of humans and loads of horses and mash them together in a way that you see fit!
I prefer to use colours that the actual breed can have, and to match their hair with their tail. A paint is a difference though, as it might have different pigments in skull and tail root. This has been a quick and confusing tutorial in which I also claim that I am in no way an expert on this, thank you good night
The Colors of Studio Ghibli: BLUE
Since the announcement of the adult content ban. It has become an issue. And many of us are hurt and angry about it. However, I wouldn’t leave Tumblr, I would but I can’t because i follow amazing artists here and they are my inspiration.
But I do hope Tumblr will open their fockin eyes and see how much damage they have done to each and everyone on Tumblr.
I do hope for the best of those who left here.
can’t decide between first person or third, any tips to help? I usually write in third for fanfics but I’m now writing my own story and am so torn
Both point of views have different abilities to narrate a story. I'm not going to use pros and cons for this, because I believe that it depends on the way you want to tell a story, if these aspects are helpful for you or not.
First Person POV
The narrator is a direct part of the story and narrates what they see and feel with using "I" (or "we").
Features of first-person pov:
it offers a direct link to the story
the story can feel more real and believable
the narrator is part of the situation, but you as the author can still decide if they are an active participant or if they are watching from the sidelines
the whole story is them talking about their experiences
therefore, the story is always subjective and full of what the narrator thinks, feels and believes to be true
if they are also not telling the story in the moment, but rather recounting it, they can also recount some things differently than how they actually happened
a first person pov is the easiest way to create an unreliable narrator
Third Person POV
The narrator is the author, who is detached from the story and narrates the lives of characters without being one of them. The narrator calls the characters by their name or their pronouns.
You have three different options:
Third-person omniscient:
This narrator is all-knowing and can tell the whole story as it is, from every perspective, but not limited to a single character. They know what every character is thinking and feeling and what their motivations are.
Third-person limited:
This narrator is limited to the inner feelings of a limited amount of characters, often just the protagonist.
Third-person objective:
This narrator tells the story completely objective, just telling what can be seen without commenting on it and not going into the thoughts and motivations of specific characters.
Features of third-person pov:
it allows the reader to emerge themselves into the thoughts and motivations of one or more characters, therefore making it almost feel like first-person pov
it can also be objective, with just the characters' dialogues and actions telling the reader about them
it allows the author to jump between scenes and times more easily
the author can tell multiple storylines at the same time (also possible with multiple first-person povs, but the jump between different times is easier for the reader in third-person)
by using third-person pov the author can decide completely on how much they want to tell the reader at any given point

Alright alright alright you guys.
I want to say that I hardly see a lot of vanilla smut on here. Some good and soft smut. Not that rough smut. Smacking the ass and all. Always want to see the gentle smut or a first time smut.
Also to point out. It would be good to see some trans too. I love to read some of that too.
Thinking of you, wherever you are.
