Here's part two of drawing my family pictures as the Bad Batch because I can and you can't stop me

#i can tell you right now that drawing their armor was a fucking pain in the ass #and the l e g s jesus fucking christ #why do i have to care about anatomy #don't ask where crosshair and wrecker's legs are btw i wouldn't know #fun fact the original picture is from our summer vacation to Italy back in 2018 #tech is me in this picture actually real and true #another fun fact #omega's eyebrows were blonde until the very last minute because i felt like they looked kinda odd #and she does actually have dark eyebrows in the show so-- #i don't know if they look any better now but ehh good enough #hunter looks so wrong for some reason but i can't fix him i'm sorry #also yes they're all in their blacks because a) i couldn't be bothered to draw all the armor again and b) they deserve the comfort #i might do proper shadings if i find the motivation for this but until then this is what you're getting #the bad batch #bad batch #tbb #the bad batch fanart #bad batch fanart #tbb fanart #hunter #omega #crosshair #wrecker #echo #tech #the clone wars #star wars #star wars fanart #fan art #art

wips from valentines day art that i did not plan well and am not finishing tonight

#this is going to be shenjinlan but right now yun jin is BEATING MY ASS WHY IS SHE SO HARD TO DRAW #i think i need to completely chang ethe way i draw noses #dunmeshi has changed the way i draw noses from 3/4 view and i think i should change the way i draw front view too bc everything looks WEIRD #anywayyyyyy i have no idea when im going to finish this #but Hopefully soon!!!! #i can complete projects!!!! just you wait!!!!!!! #also i promise yelan isnt wearing lingerie it will hopefully look better when i color it #wip #i draw shenhe so different every time i draw her but its bc shes buff and i actually dont rlly know how muscles work #so im kind of bullshitting it every time #i should probably. get on learning anatomy and stuff #but idk how to go about that #and idk how to tell my art teacher Can i please learn how to draw muscular women #so i need to do that on my own #which is hard bc idk if ur supposed to study like anatomical muscle charts or muscular people #bc ik knowing every single muscle and bone and stuff is kind of unnecessary #but alsooo its good to know what muscles do what things #bc then i can make certain muscles stronger that would be used more #bc right now shes muscular kind of just. for looks lmfao #but i want to make it Make sense for what she does #like .. what muscles do you need to use a polearm and to lift things #i also Dont work out which would be useful for that information #anyway. shenhe would be buff af in canon if hyv wasnt a pussy #wdym she can lift rocks the size of houses IWHTOUT ANY TYPE OF ADEPTUS ENERGY #like shes just that strong.... #heart eyes emoji #shes wearing a skirt btw hejhfejfhjhr #you cant rlly tell because i Refuse to draw legs unless absolutely necessary #but i would like you to know that that Is a skirt #she could do anything to me

kuukou likes shounen so that tells me he likes a good action story but the kinds of stories he himself creates seem to be emotional epics and he doesn’t need me to tell him this, but his tastes are peak lmao

#vee queued to fill the void #what????? those also happen to be my taste in fiction so i’m biased?????? idk what you mean lmao #i’m just saying if the trajectory of kuukou’s life was also changed by watching the water village arc in naruto then— #lol i was actually just thinking about kuukou believing a man should only cry when they lose someone dear to him #and probably having that hero in his story experience that #like kuukou’s wandering monk tendencies comes from him wanting to experience everything he can to better himself #and it helps mould him to who he wants to be in the long run so in one of my super roundabout ways lmao #i was wondering if maybe he was drawing from experience to create that story and therefore has experienced a loss that made him cry lol #but besides that lmao i was also thinking about his art style again lol bold probably because he uses a brush #but how does he interpret anatomy???? does he enjoy drawing backgrounds since he likes nature?????? i wanna see lol!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭

Tbh? I still feel so out of my depth whenever I try to write Bill. For whatever reason it doesn't come naturally to me like writing Ford does. Every time one of y'all has thoughts on Bill's characterization or writes something Bill-centric I'm mentally taking so many notes

#godsrambles #im in that weird inbetween of knowing when his characterization Feels Right but not knowing how to write him so it feels right #its like that stage in art where your eye for good composition and colors and anatomy improves but you dont know how to actually apply it #what i should do is write some short scenes where he interacts with other people #because most of the fics I've written are 100% his internal thoughts when he is completely alone #which is way easier. takes away at least a few of the layers youd usually have to keep track of with this goddamn guy #the only one i can think of that had bill actually talking to someone else is parhelion. and i KNOW i slightly mischaracterized him in that #made him a lil too Smooth. made his manipulative front a lil too gentle and kind and patient #but since its from fords Very Reverent Rose Tinted Glasses perspective i dont think its that big a deal #and also the more i lean into him Seeming Perfect To Ford the more sinister it is to read with the knowledge of what happens later #which is. so much fun. and im so normal about it #but i still do want to get better at writing him interacting with others #ironically one issue that seems to come up is me being like 'whenever he talks to people they always respond exactly how he expects them to #like subconsicously. in the form of 'they get tricked successfully' or 'they are annoyed and bothered to the extent he was going for' #tfw you cant write a character bc you accidentally have the same innaccurate thought process as him #tags essay #TBH writing him as Too good at manipulation in parhelion is also billcore. #'this is how it happened right. im soooo good at trickery good job me' #if you count 'tricking yourself' then yeah bill youre the best at trickery there ever was

[snekdood]

anyways tired of this mean spirited ass website

#maybe im the only trans person who actually hates being reminded of my anatomy idk #its fine if a trans girl says 'you just want a penis!!' but if i say the same thing but w vagina im sure i'd get a million ppl yelling at m #hmmst. #i kinna just think we let ppl slide by w that shit toward transmascs too much. everyone else can be transphobic #towards us directly or even indirectly but if i inched anywhere near the same shit yall say suddenly its an issue #its the same shit w the fucking theyfab shit. doesnt matter if it negatively effects transmascs to some ppl at all apparently #but if i start goin around calling people femmab we'd prolly have issues huh? #can we explain this? are we just doing the whole reversing gender roles to feel woke and Not transphobic #bc its not any better just saying trans girls are the uwu ones who need to be protected and you cant make them cry instead of having that #thrust upon us- ya dont just get to reverse them and act like you're Doing something #anyways you dont get to protect trans girls from any perceived harm and then leave trans guys in the dust sorry idc #fuck off and die ig idk. or be better. #and no- obligatory: im not saying trans women oppress trans men. #if me critiquing your actions = me saying you're 'oppressing me' every time then you're #probably an insufferable person to be around anyways. but assuming good faith from some of the ppl possibly reading this #and whom i wish would assume good faith on my part as well- i do think we let trans women get away w shit that if trans men #did the same shit in reverse everyone would get in a pissy fit about it #and i dont think the solution is to let us do it too i think the solution is some of yall need to check yourselves and internalize the whol #'would you like it if someone said that to you' shit and changing things where it applies like. would you like it if i said to you that #'you just want a vagina'? probably the fuck not! so maybe fuckin check yourself and you wont lose transmasc friends.

I hate him so much his hair is stupid and his glasses are stupid and his weird pants are stupid and his shirt is stupid it is absolutely unforgivable that he’s my favorite. Why are all parts of him things that I can’t draw. Why does this keep happening with homestuck characters I feel targeted

#art #sketch #digital art #fanart #homestuck #dirk strider #like no you don’t understand he’s tailor made to include all of my weaknesses #like first his fucking hair. it is the stupidest shape in homestuck and homestuck has some pretty fucking stupid hair shapes #it is completely different from literally every angle and completely unlike any other hair I draw so I have NO muscle memory for it #his glasses are stupid too but in a manageable way and I love hal so they get rights. we can ignore the glasses #his fucking SHIRT #you don’t get it the wifebeater is my fucking nemesis #I don’t draw anatomy I draw loose clothes in a way that implies there’s anatomy underneath #HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT WITH A FUCKING WIFEBEATER #also he has like? actual muscles? you think I know how to draw muscles? think again fucker there’s a reason I give everyone sweaters #the hat on his shirt. WHY. I will figure it out eventually but until then WHY IS IT SHAPED LIKE THAT #hate it hate it hate it #his pants wouldn’t be a problem if it weren’t for the shirt but the shirt is a thing so now I have to figure out how HIPS work? #like y’all think I only draw twinks on purpose but it’s actually because hips are my nemesis and I do not understand them #so I just draw a straight line instead #to draw dirk properly I’ll have to get better at art and like I’ll do it but ughhhhhh #the worst thing is it is completely in character for him to be this way. he would get a kick out of it don’t tell me he wouldn’t #there’s a fucking reason I figured out all the other human kids first ok. I knew this was coming. my only failure was in underestimation #phase 42

[hopefulqueer]

i rly like that i'm at a place with my art where i can literally see the improvement from one piece to the next

#it's not perfectly linear and it depends on how much effort i put into a piece #but like. i'm actually developing an intuitive sense for anatomy #i know that i'm still not very good at it but i don't mind anymore because i know that i AM getting better #and that i can KEEP getting better #i can start a piece with a vision and i can make the vision happen on the paper #not perfect! definitely still clumsy! i have things i know i want to work on! #but instead of being frustrated and unsatisfied with every piece bc i only see the flaws #i like looking at my own art now #and it's only rly been in the past year or so that i've been actively working on getting better #so it's just. nice :) #i'm like a level 15 writer level 6 actor and a level 2 visual artist kfsjhfkjdjd #so when i'm suddenly gaining access to level 3 artist abilities it's like OH WOW #whereas it feels like i haven't leveled up my writing in years #anyway. being able to physically see ur progress in a skill is nice i recommend it

[starpros-sunshine]

Guess what I’ve been doing for the last few hours.

#I WANNA DRAW MORE #but I can’t because I need to eat something #what is anatomy #i Love how you can just see my effort going down #but actually it went up #i did. the first two on one layer #and then the last one was the most tedious because the outfit #it is so cute but GOD IT IS S PAIN #well not really it’s alright but it is tedious #also I have never drawn Mika and it shows #why do you look like that sit why don’t you look like a crow picked up from a dumpster #he doesn’t look fucked up enough for my taste but I’ll take it #and then we have Kasa #i wanted to draft for my wonderland au and he’s the queen of hearts because it just fits #and now that I’m reading the book I’m honestly thinking about making Tori Alice because Tomoya is not that….silly is the wrong word #but Tori fit’s the part way better if we go by character similarity #and we could get homoerotic tension between Alice and the queen #though that’s not really a main thought #i wanted Sena as the mouse mecause Mouzumi #it’s like a side dish #a Bonus but irrelevant #and wataei hug<3333 #for the comforts <333 #again what is anatomy #eichi tenshouin #hibiki wataru #wataei #mika kagehira #tsukasa suou #my art

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, mostly teaches anatomy and how to draw people. But does have art talks and teaches the basics.)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard and teaches you everything)

Aaron Rutten (free, tips about art, talks about art programs and the best products for digital art)

BoroCG (free, teaches a verity of art mediums from 3D modeling to digital painting. As well as some tips that can be used across styles)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free, teaches digital painting and has classes in Spanish)

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. Mostly teaching character designs and simple backgrounds.)

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. Mostly nature art)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Sinix Design (has some tips on drawing people)

Winged canvas (art school for free on a verity of mediums)

Bob Ross (just a good time, learn how to paint, as well as how too relax when doing art. "there are no mistakes only happy accidents", this channel also provides tips from another artist)

Scott Christian Sava (Inspiration and provides tips and advice)

Pikat (art advice and critiques)

Drawbox (a suggested cheap online art school, made of a community of artist)

Skillshare (A cheap learning site that has art classes ranging from traditional to digital. As well as Animation and tutorials on art programs. All under one price, in the USA it's around $34 a month)

Human anatomy for artist (not a video or teacher but the site is full of awesome refs to practice and get better at anatomy)

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. If you want to go fancy Michaels is always a good place for traditional supplies. They also get in some good sales and discounts. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are usually 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. Galaxy, Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone, Android, or Chromebook device. )

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99 usd, IPAD & IPHONE ONLY)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, animation and more. Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Aseprite ($19.99 usd but has a free trail, for pixel art Windows & macOS)

Drawpile (free and for if you want to draw with others)

IbisPaint (free, phone app ONLY)

Medibang (free, IPAD, Android and PC)

NOTE: Some of these can work on almost any computer like Clip and Sai but others will require a bit stronger computer like Blender. Please check their sites for if your computer is compatible.

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.

[dragonmickie]

in my cunty opinion they need to give amy a new canon outfit. she's had her current one for so long and she definitely could be doing better

#sonic boom amy's outfit kind of slays hard #certainly looks better than her modern canon one #also like esp if theyre going actually forward with the series too #she can grow as a person and change outfits. and then we dont have to be doing the upskirts #that still happens in modern games doesnt it. like :sob: #actually ftr i like the boom models more than the modern ones. the anatomy looks better

[technicolorxsn]

I will say, the funny thing about people arguing that there is a fundamental difference between "skilled" and "unskilled" art is that there are so many professional artists who are massively talented that choose to make "unskilled" art even though they very much have the ability to make "skilled" art. it's almost like there's merit and worth in it, ain't it?

#very funny moment i had was when i was complaining about how i heard some people making fun of a very potent political piece in my college' #s #art wing for being 'just spray paint on wood' #and i was saying i think saying shit like that is stupid and someone was all like 'yes but..... some art is just better than other art :)' #and then later that day in my art class we were analyzing how artists depict mood in their pieces and there was a lot of art people like #that person would consider objectively 'bad' #by very talented and prolific artists! because that style and way of portraying things can be incredibly effective! #apologies for the overuse of quotation marks i just want to make it abundantly clear i dont believe in “good” and “bad” art lol #i think if you can only view art as either good or bad youre entirely missing the point and missing out on so many ways to view and #experience and appreciate art #so yeah actually even though you said it like it was obvious and no one would disagree. i do think there is very little difference between #a child's deviantart oc or scribble of their family and art made by professional artists #i love you tadpole people i love you sparkledogs i love you mary sues i love you chicken scratch i love you scribbles i love you bad anatomy
