hot artists don't gatekeep

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Wonder Woman design, 2018

Loved her all-golden armor from Kingdom Come so I kinda jumped off from there.

You know about Gotham! You know about Metropolis! But do you know about these lesser-known DCU cities???

Civic City - home to the first headquarters of the JSA; this is a smaller city outside Philadelphia and at this point has probably gotten absorbed into that metro area.

Empire City - home of the first and second Manhunters in the 1940s. This is making the list mostly because I can't believe DC made yet another fake New York City. Free us.

Gateway City - a San Francisco analogue, this California harbor city is home to Helena and Cassandra Sandsmark, as well as the largest collection of classical antiquities this side of Greece. Diana worked at the museum here for a time.

Harbor City - in Oregon. The Doom Patrol had a real bad time here once.

Hub City - an Illinois town overrun with mobs and corruption, and the home base of Vic Sage, the Question.

Ivy Town - a college town nebulously in New England, and home to Ray Palmer and Ryan Choi (both the Atom).

Mammoth City - the hometown of Eel O'Brian, otherwise known as Plastic Man. Apparently Mammoth City is in New Jersey! How dense is New Jersey in this universe? I'm not sure I want to know.

Mesa City - an old-fashioned cowboy town in Arizona. Mostly featured in comics set in the 19th century, but we know it still exists because one Impulse annual was set here.

Midway City - an industrial city in Michigan that's fallen on some harder times (likely a Detroit analogue). Home to at least some iterations of the Doom Patrol, as well as Hawkman and Hawkwoman. This place was also absolutely trashed during Final Crisis.

Opal City - home of various Starmen, and also Ralph and Sue Dibny (at least, before, you know.) In Maryland.

Palmera City - Texan hub of technological innovation, home to Victoria Kord and Kord Industries. Apparently this was created for the movie, but made its way into Graduation Day and the current Blue Beetle ongoing.

Portsmouth City - Pieter Cross (Doctor Mid-Nite) lives here! Or he did, when he existed. Also in Oregon.

Quad Cities - four cities in Iowa and Illinois, along the Mississippi River. Home of Wild Dog, a vigilante I genuinely did not know existed before this.

Rain City - appears in one issue of Anima (1994), described as a city whose time has come, like Paris in the 20s or San Francisco in the 60s. They never explain what this means, but it appears to involve a lot of raves, punk bands, and intravenous drugs.

Superior City - the Oregon home of the original Red Bee (Rick Raleigh). I'm including this one because, one, Rick has a retconned-in sidekick who's now part of the Lost Children, and two, what is with all these Oregon cities?

Theory: the white palace has all the buzz saws because the guard’s mind we enter was bullied his job and it’s a manifestation of his job dissatisfaction.

Also someone explain to me how the charm I got in a dream manifested into reality.

Beyond his art, Neal Adams is rightfully remembered as an eternal champion of creators’ rights and for the part he & his work played in the Comics Code revision of ‘71 but his contribution to John Stewart’s creation is – I think –  a rather underrated aspect of his career, especially as it’s such a great reminder of the kind of person he was. Taken from an interview conducted and transcribed by Allen W. Wright over at the Green Arrow: Bold Archer fansite, here’s Neal discussing John’s beginnings (x).

people today with access to more raw information than any other period: the earth is flat

german artilleryman in 1916, who barely washes his own ass: I need to account for the curvature and rotation of the earth when plotting my firing plans

Jason: *on private line* Swanhead.

Tim: Red Hood. Don’t call me that. What is it?

Jason: Send me my location, I don’t know where I am.

Tim: Hold-

Dick: *batkids group channel* Hey Baby Bird.

Tim: Nightwing. Again don’t call me-you know what? Nevermind. What’s the problem?

Dick: I need you to send me my location, I got kidnapped overseas.

Tim: Red Hood too.

Jason: Hey! I didn’t get kidnapped, I was violently taken hostage for a minor drug deal that went wrong. Totally different.

Tim: Right.

Jason: Listen here you little shi-

Dick: Oh, Little Wing’s in Belarus. Coordinates: 53.6212, 27.94683 and there’s a bike nearby he can use to get to the aircraft landing space close by but he’ll have to be careful because it’s swarmed by mean-looking guards.

Tim: …..

Jason: Since when are the guards nice-looking?

Dick: Little Wing, when you get kidnapped as often as I do, you get to pick and choose who you like.

Tim: Not getting into that mess but how’d you know Jason’s coordinates?

Dick: Older Sibling’s Intuition!

Tim and Jason: Bullshit.

Tim: Anyway, I’ll send Batman to pick you up.

Dick: Wait, no, Batman will bring Robin and little D just went over to J-Superboy’s house to play video games.

Tim: ….Okay, then I’ll send Batgirl.

Dick: No Batgirl’s throwing it back at a frat party so don’t bother her. She’s winning.

Tim: Orphan.

Dick: No she’s busy dismantling an underground mercenary establishment in Shanghai.

Tim: I’ll-

Dick: Nah, enjoy your date with your golden teddy bear tonight. It’s also a bit of a distance to go from Gotham to Metropolis to pick up your other one.

Tim: OKAY HOW DO YOU KNOW EVERYONE’S LOCATION BUT YOUR OWN?!

Dick: ….Tee Hee 😋✨

Jason: *muffled* did he just “Tee Hee?”

Tim: ….where are the kidnappers, I gotta rescue them.

Dick: *in the background on Dick’s line: sobbing and nonstop muffled thank you’s*

Dick: Whaddya mean? They’re fine. Right, guys? *more crying heard*

Tim: Dick….

Jason: *on private channel* Shushhh. Just let him have this. Still send help though. For them.

Arkansas City Daily Traveler, Kansas, December 4, 1906

Not enough people know that Damian liking animals isn’t just a sign that he is empathetic, it’s also a link to Al Ghul’s philosophy. They are (supposedly) eco-terrorists and would all likely have the same love for animals that Damian has

When I tell you, I had a VISCERAL reaction watching this I had to pause the tv fucking hell

[lagggggomorph]

I would like to apologize for the person I will become when the Percy Jackson tv show comes out. It will be my entire personality, after one teaser trailer I talked about only that for a month straight. I am about to make it everyone’s problem

[lagggggomorph]

I feel like people understand that Dick changed while Jason was gone, but where it goes wrong half the time is people assume that Dick "growing up" meant that Dick was irresponsible around the time he and Jason interacted/was mean and unable to conceal his jealousy well, which he then evolved from due to Jason's death and was able to build a loving big brother relationship with Tim and Damian and fix his relationship with Bruce.

Meanwhile canon is like:

>Be me, Dick Grayson, esteemed and respected leader of the Teen Titans

> Your younger brother dies

> Fire the youngest member of the Titans because it happened because you had a crisis of responsibility about child vigilantism

> Get punched by your not-official dad

> Help mentor new younger brother because you can't stop him and Bruce from the path they're on, and like hell is another kid going to die

> Kid dies. Not that one. The ex-member of the Titans died disobeying your orders and saving the world in a heroic sacrifice you didn't want him to make, this is exactly what you tried to avoid

> So did two of your friends and one of their moms

> Failed marriage, and a whole lot of relationship stuff you don't want to talk about

> Dad didn't ask you to surpass him in the roll he trained you for since you were 8, gives it to a guy who goes of the rails and starts trying to kill ppl

> Dad asks you to take the roll because he literally has 0 other options and wants to take a vacation

> Bond with younger brother II more, will kill everyone in this room and yourself if anything happens to him

> Move to a new awful city that's often compared to hell

> Having nothing to lose makes it kind of nice here

> Younger brother II gets killed by the same guy who killed younger brother I

> Kill the guy

> Younger brother II wasn't actually dead

> Dad used CPR, so neither is the guy who killed them

> Angst over not being a good enough person not to kill your brother's murderer

> Things start to become okay again

> Best friend dies

> Get shot in the shoulder and fired from your job

> Childhood home gets burned down, 20+ people die

> Apartment building blows up, 22 of your friends and acquaintances die

> Find out it's because someone was specifically targeting you

> Person dies for talking to you

> Choose to step aside and let the guy targetting you die

> Run home because dad needs help

> Get shot in the leg, while passed out another kid hero dies

> Quit being a hero

> Join the mob

> Things start to get better

> Help dad out with some case about this guy named the Red Hood

> City gets nuked because you live there

> Get radiation burns and pass out while saving people, content that you died doing something good

> Dad saved you

> You're still alive :/

> Propose to your ex-girlfriend (not the one from the last marriage)

> Crisis event happens, take a laser beam meant for your father

> Coma for 3 weeks

> She says no (for good reasons)

> You're still alive :/

~and around here is where Dick finds out Jason's alive~

Anyways Dick was not more well adjusted by the time Jason came back from the dead, his life was a constant series of L's, and he got worse 😎
