[volot]

ಥoಥ: How are they like when they cry? Do they just stream tears nonstop? Does their nose get clogged to the point that it’s hard to breathe? Is it easy for them to speak when they are sobbing? Do they hiccup when they cry?

oh i am so glad you asked this 8')

under the cut because of course... lucian can never stop talking about this guy. the return of my 5000 word metas. buckle up; we're getting a little edgy with this one.

so with volo, i've talked about how he's someone who feels his emotions to an extreme amount due to an imbalance, over-bloated aspect of the human spirit, right? it's only natural someone thinks he's a crier; and he was! namely when he was younger.

as a kid, it was progressive as he grew; but he tended to lean on the side of a silent crier who let it all stream down his cheeks, for the most part. it was hard to stop, overflowing much like everything else he'd felt; his eyes would go wide, his jaw would quiver, he'd look positively stunned at first. his breathing would pick up, as if he was panicking and telling himself not to cry, but like all things, it'd end up fruitless; in the end, he'd always crumble and break. he might hiccup at worst while desperately trying to swipe his face clean with his palms to make it stop, his inhales would be shakier, and when it was really bad, he might sob and warble his words, completely fumble his sentences, lose them in their entirety because everything just wouldn't stop. imagine the messiest crier of a kid you know. that was a younger volo.

when he got a little bit older -- about past the age of ten, when things started nosediving very quickly, and a turning point where his sorrow would turn into anger and ambition as he'd aged into a tween and then a teenager -- he'd try very hard to be a pillar of strength... for himself, more than anything. as a testament of some kind against weakness, because maybe being weak was the reason why he'd felt so cursed. weakness makes one more susceptible to bad things happening, right? with pokemon, it's the weak and pitiful ones who suffer the worst, because they're the most vulnerable; and one chosen by god is not weak and vulnerable. they must persevere. this is where this ideology begins. the idea of pity starts making his stomach churn. so, he'd muster up a half-hearted glare at whatever it is that put him in this position, pop a scowl, tremor slightly; he'd try everything to keep it in, but his eyes would always leak like a waterfall, and he'd damn himself for it. it wasn't foolproof, but it was a step forward in trying to gain some control. any control, over how horrible his life was proving to be. 

as all natural states of progression so, by the time he's an adult... it's safe to say it's very hard to make him cry. poetically, one might wager that he'd cried his last tears years ago, and they'd all gone and dried up. something something the flames of his anger the earthiness of his ambition drying up the well of his sorrows, so on, so forth, you know how it is. and to his credit, that's sort of true. when volo cries as an adult, it really isn't crying... for the most part.

these days, his biggest tell is how glassy his eyes get; he blinks in a particularly hard way one does when they're holding back tears. everything about him gets tense; his jaw, his shoulders, he may clench his fists or grit his teeth. sometimes, he shakes. other times, you can see him swallow visibly. his breathing might become heavier, as if it's closer to aggravation than it is crying. but he's good at curbing it now, good at directing it into something else, and he's good at containing his voice beyond maybe, if something's struck him, a quiver that he wrestles with. he hates it. he refuses to be seen as weak and vulnerable and someone to pity, so he bites it back, swallows it down, because he cannot let anyone see him break.

for the most part, anyway.

if something really hits him really hard -- then sure enough, against his own self and desires, he will cry. this is usually when suffering another blow to his life that he deems by arceus's presumed neglect; it touches upon the wounds in his heart, so his expression draws to a blank. his eyes are wide again, if only for a moment -- and tears begin to well. it's often like this that he begins to shake, a little violently; in his knees, in his shoulders, in his hands. despite himself, he will cry; a few tears, spare ones that likely stain his clothes or the ground and drip without hitting his jaw with how he bows his head typically, but they fall. his eyes burn, and everything within him feels molten and hot and acidic; if it's a fresh scorn, it's not unlike him to fall to his knees and dig his nails into the ground, or double-over and put a palm over his heart -- over where his pendent lies -- and grip with a profound tightness. he'll hold on until his knuckles go white, or dig his nails into something until they ache; he grits his teeth during these, desperate to keep it in, and only allowing himself a few sobs and however long he needs to let it out. for the most part, it's quiet; he trembles more than anything, more angry than anything else, and it's not so uncommon to find him glaring with tears in his eyes; at the sky, at whatever's damned him, with a hardened resolve, and his voice becomes a guttural growl whenever he does speak. it isn't very much, but he'll manage some words -- brief, in-between pauses, while he tries so hard to keep himself together.

and in more extreme cases, the very, very bad cases where he has an utter breakdown, where he's been completely and utterly struck -- where old wounds have been forcibly re-opened, he absolutely loses it. it's a lot like the example i'd mentioned above, but cranking the dial to about a forty five. he'll be stunned, gutted: standing there for a moment while his mouth goes agape, and maybe it'll twitch a few times in a thin line if it hasn't. the final cracks in an emotional dam are splitting, and because of how corrosive his emotions have developed, he eventually snaps; it's likely he'll spit out a laugh, extremely watery and in disbelief, a little nervous, before it tumbles into more desperate laughter while he smiles that same furious, toothy, out-of-place smile you see in the temple of sinnoh. his nervous laughs eventually break down into sobs, and it begins to look a lot like a mix between how he cried when he was at his youngest, and the above; it starts flowing, and it doesn't stop, just like before. 

it's just gotten worse. 

he'll laugh a little more, because he can't believe this, because it feels disgusting and cathartic all at once. his emotional wires are getting completely crossed, and he can't tell what is what anymore -- he'll howl, he'll bury his face into his hands and scream into his palms, he'll bark at whatever's damned him until his throat gets raw. his expression is always teetering somewhere between a grin and looking utterly devastated and enraged; he'll peek through the gaps of his fingers or drag them down his face, or tear them through his hair and grip hard enough that his scalp hurts. it's safe to say he throws something of a tantrum... or at least yeah, a huge tantrum, long overdue from all that repressing he’s been doing, with how he curses and hugs onto himself so tightly that his fingers dig into his arms, or sometimes, he'll beat his fist against something while he shatters. he talks through it all, or tries to, even if his voices shakes, even if he's choking on his tears, even if it sounds like broken glass -- because he has the raw intensity enough to power through it. 

but he sobs, at least, free and without restraint, until he can taste the salt of his own tears. will he cry like this around someone, ever? probably not, unless something horrific happens enough to push that button happens in the company of someone, but it takes a lot to break him to this point. but it exists, privately to himself, beneath the ever-watching eye of god. he’ll go on like this until he falls into nothing but a moment of simply dumping everything that’s been lodged within him emotionally, until he’s tired himself out and uses the last of his fumes to transfix it into anger, because anger is more beneficial to him and better than feeling emptier than before. that, or he tires himself out to the point of regaining his composure because he feels sick of feeling this way, and he’s either bitter or decidedly cruel. regardless, his ambition always drags him out of it, exhaustion aside, how bone-tired he is aside.

because not all pillars are meant to stay solid forever, right? eventually, the weight of the cracks will prove too much, and it'll all come tumbling down. but he will always try to rebuild when they fall.

as of 8/3, the most recently updated version of this post is here (it's a reblog of this exact post with more info added)

as a lot of you know, limbus company recently fired its CG illustrator for being a feminist, at 11 pm, via phone call, after a bunch of misogynists walked into the office earlier that day and demanded she be fired. on top of this, as per korean fans, her firing went against labor laws---in korea, you must have your dismissal in writing.

the korean fandom on twitter is, understandably, going scorched earth on project moon due to this. there's a lot currently going on to protest the decision, so i'm posting a list here of what's going on for those who want to limit their time on elon musk's $44 billion midlife crisis impulse purchase website (if you are on twitter, domuk is a good person to follow, as they translate important updates to english). a lot of the links are in korean, but generally they play nicely with machine translators. this should be current as of 8/2.

Statements condemning the decision have been issued by The Gyeonggi Youth Union and IT Union.

A press conference at the Gyeonggido Assembly will occur on 8/3, with lawmakers of the Gyeonggi province (where Project Moon is based) in attendance. This appears driven by the leader of the Gyeonggi Youth Union.

The vice chairman of the IT union--who has a good amount of experience with labor negotiations like these--has expressed strong support for the artist and is working to get media coverage due to the ongoing feminist witch hunts in the gaming industry. Project Moon isn't union to my knowledge, but he's noted that he's taken on nonunion companies such as Netmarble (largest mobile game dev in South Korea) by getting the issue in front of the National Assembly (Korea's congress).

Articles on the incident published in The Daily Labor News, Korean Daily, multiple articles on Hankyoreh (one of which made it to the print edition), and other news outlets.

Segments about the termination on the MBN 7 o' clock news and MBC's morning news

Comments by Youth Union leaders about looking into a loan made to Project Moon via Devsisters Ventures, a venture capital firm. Tax money from Gyeonggi province was invested in Devsisters in 2017, and in 2021, Devsisters gave money to Project Moon. The Gyeonggi Youth Union is asking why hard-earned tax money was indirectly given to a company who violates ESG (environmental, social and governance) principles.

Almost nonstop signage truck protests outside Project Moon's physical office during business hours until 8/22 or the company makes a statement. This occurs alongside a coordinated hashtag campaign to get the issue trending on Twitter in Korea. The signage campaign was crowd-funded in about 3 hours.

A full boycott of the Limbus Company app, on both mobile and PC (steam) platforms. Overseas fans are highly encouraged to participate, regardless if whether they're F2P or not. Not opening the app at all is arguably the biggest thing any one person can do to protest the decision, as the app logs the number of accounts that log on daily. For a new gacha such as Limbus, a high number of F2P daily active users, but a small number of paying users is often preferable to having a smaller userbase but more paying users. If the company sees the number of daily users remain stable, they will likely decide to wait out any backlash rather than apologize.

Digging up verified reviews from previous employees regarding the company's poor management practices

Due to the firing, the Leviathan artist has posted about poor working conditions when making the story. As per a bilingual speaker, they were working on a storyboard revision, and thought 'if I ran into the street right now and got hit by a car and died, I wouldn't have to keep working.' They contacted Project Moon because they didn't want their work to be like that, and proposed changes to serialization/reduction in amount of work per picture/to build up a buffer of finished images (they did not have any buffer while working on Leviathan to my knowledge). They were shut out, and had to suck it up and accept the situation.

Hamhampangpang has a 'shrine' section of the restaurant for fans to leave fan-created merch and other items. They also allow the fans to take this merch back if they can prove it's theirs. Fans are now doing just that.

To boost all of the above, a large number of Korean fanartists with thousands of followers have deleted their works and/or converted their accounts from fanart accounts to accounts supporting the protests. Many of them are bilingual, and they're where I got the majority of this information.

[note 1: there's a targeted english-language disinformation campaign by the website that started the hate mob. i have read the artist's tweets with machine translation, and they're talked about in the second hankyoreh article linked above: nowhere does she express any transphobic or similarly awful beliefs. likewise, be wary of any claims that she supported anything whose description makes you raise eyebrows--those claims are likely in reference to megalia, a korean feminist movement. for information on that, i'd recommend the NPR/BBC articles below and this google drive link of english-language scholarly papers on them. for the love of god don't get your information about a feminist movement from guys going on witch hunts for feminists.]

[note 2: i've seen a couple people argue that the firing was for the physical safety of the employees, citing the kyoani incident in japan. as per this korean fan, most fans there strongly do not believe this was the case. we have english-translated transcripts of the meeting between the mob and project moon; the threats the mob was making were to......brand project moon as a feminist company online. yes, really. male korean gamers aren't normal about feminism, and there's been an ongoing witch hunt for feminists in the industry since about 2016, something you see noted in both the labor union statements. both NPR and the BBC this phenomenon to gamergate, and i'd say it's a pretty apt comparison.]

let me know if anything needs correction or if anything should be added.

#project moon #limbus company #obligatory text post tag #that's all i've got for now. highly encourage y'all to not open limbus until they make a statement

[jesamjdbutfurry]

oh hell yes another artist that expicitly does artistic freedom comms! i'm so bad at coming up with poses and situations and expressions for comms so when the artist specifically goes "hey i'll take control of that" it's a relief. i'd pay extra for that tbh

#both of the artists i've seen doing that #(@bat-soup and @orcaowlart) #charge less for that option?? #which i guess sure #pay extra for full control over your comm #but it makes it so much easier for me #edit when will tag editing come to mobile #just had to fully get out of bed and turn on my pc bc i nearly put the wrong urls #curse you tumblr mobile being behind desktop

Master List

You were at Quackity's house, you were together early but apparently his editor called and it was urgent that Quackity get to work right now

"Just let me fix this problem and I'll get back to you"

He had said that it was a small problem, but you saw him opening a thousand editing programs, opening his discord and even sending messages from his mobile, and you knew that this would take longer than you thought.

You were in your ovulation days, and at some point in the day you started to need any physical contact. From his island in the kitchen, you only heard the 'click' of his mouse, when you looked in his direction you could only notice the shape of his back, how his black hair fell from that hat.

Tired of waiting, you approached him, leaning on the back of his chair, "interested" to see what he was working on.

Quackity always smelled good, apart from the expensive perfumes on him, you could tell the natural scent of him. He had a smell impossible to describe but very addictive.

You put your arms on his shoulders from behind him, when he notice your presence he take your hand and kiss it to continue with his work. You ended up pulling up a chair next to him, sitting to his right with your head resting on his shoulder and watching him work. His shirt smelled of detergent, his forearm gave off his natural scent, you wrapped your hand around his bicep, it wasn't muscular but it did contain meat to squeeze. His touch was so addictive that you started playing with his knee, caressing his hair.

Quackity realized how much you needed his contact, and that made him a little nervous because you were being so demanding, wanting to put his hands on him.

He shut down his PC once he finished, and took you to the couch so he could snuggle with you, hugging you tight around the waist and giving you long, hot kisses.

for a while since i got into transformers 3 years ago and i loved the franchies instiantly even since i was a kid especially the designs of transformers and Seeing fan arts and fan Designs and fans make thire own continuity made me me want to start learning to draw when im ready but i don't know how to draw cybertronians so do you have any tips and advices for someone who want to learn to draw transformers characters both Traditional & digital art?

Biggest advice I can give is: "Break a character apart into simple components!"

Drawing bots is honestly not that difficult, I find it much easier than people because you can more easily break a character apart into simplified blocks.

When it comes to designing characters it can take a few times to get one you're happy with so doing lots of basic sketches can help. References are always useful too! Every artist uses references.

Here's how I do it (In this case I'm doing an alt design for tfe Nightshade):

(It's not a definitive guide as you kinda have to figure out what works best for you both in terms of technique and art style. I'm aware my art style is definitely not for everyone, as it veers more on the cartoony side. I've had comments about how my faces all look effed up etc XD)

Initial sketch

Break a bot down into basic shapes, circles and sausage shapes for more rounded characters and boxes for squarer ones. I normally start with the head and draw the rest of the body down from it (torso and arms then legs then any back kibble that might be visible) Think of it like the protoform beneath the armour.

To help with figuring out a pose I'll often use my toys. It can help you visualise where their arms and legs etc go along with whether part of a bot is actually visible from a certain angle. For example in this case:

(Yes that's my cat chilling in the background)

This can help you to figure out if a certain design can pull a given pose, for example would a bot with kibble on their hips or arms be able to move their legs or arms a certain way. I used POTP Elita one as a reference for my SG Megatron a lot for example as they've got very similar builds. But this is not essential.

(There are mannequin apps on mobiles etc. you can use to help with pose references too, and image searches are always useful for references.)

For more dynamic poses it helps to think about how the character is moving, so add a curve to the torso/spine to add to any implied motion etc.

Details

Once I'm happy with the basic shape and pose I typically add the armour over the top. Again the head is usually the first bit I do. You can see I got a bit lazy with their left hand and just did a scribble here XD

Inking

Normally when inking I do the edges of each armour piece first then add any details on afterwards in a finer pen. Generally I'll do one body part at the time eg. fully ink the arm before doing the head etc. Its best to make sure you do parts that are in front first!

Here's the finished picture:

Though it'll need some digital cleaning up at another time.

As for digital art...

I can't really give much advice on starting a drawing digitally as I never quite got the hang of it (colouring and corrections I do digitally but all my line art is traditional), I need the feedback of a pen in my hand and pressure on the paper to get it right.

These days the Hardware I mainly use is a refurbished huion art tablet (it was about £120 when I bought it) that's probably the cheapest your going to find a graphics tablet with a screen. BUT it's really not essential to get one especially if you're just starting out. Basic graphic tablets without a screen (just a pen and a pad) are much cheaper or you can use a mouse. I used a mouse for ages when I was first starting out.

In terms of software, for colouring and edits on the PC I use GIMP (I've been using it since like 2009 so I'm not really going to change any time soon!). It's freeware software and can do a lot of stuff, but it's user interface isn't the most user friendly especially if you're not familiar with graphics software but there are plenty of tutorials available for it. I'll try to remember to make a post showing how I use that another time :) as I'm not at my computer at the moment.

There are plenty of alternative image manipulation/graphics software to use as well, some free, some free but with ads, and some paid for (either one off payment or subscription). It's best to see what other artists have to say about them though as I've never really used them!

Mantis… gif making tutorial when? I beg

Here you go, love! I recorded a quick video for how I record my gifs, as well as how I edit them. I don’t really do anything special, and I also don’t know the best way to actually make gifs with photoshop still since it confuses me a lot still haha... but hopefully this is a bit helpful! There may be a better way though, so the way I do it may be a bit outdated lol. Gifs will also look different on pc compared to mobile on tumblr due to how they compress the gif on each platform.

Gamer Tokyo Revengers Headcanons

A/N: This is mostly Toman with some cameos from Shinichiro & Hanma LMAO. I hope you enjoy! Shout out to my amazing boyfriend who participated in this conversation with me. <3 I love you. -----

-Kazutora one time scammed Baji in Meep City by offering a “legendary for legendary'' trust trade and Baji ended up getting temporarily banned from ROblox text and voice chat for the things he was screeching.

-Mikey and Draken don’t play Roblox (Draken will if Emma wants him to though). They’re probably on Val or something. Mikey blows up team/party voice chat literally the entire match while Draken only says one thing; “gg” at the end of the game LMAO

-Kazutora, Baji, and Chifuyu have a Minecraft server and the stuff that goes on in that server should not be spoken of, but can be summed up with one event; the piston dungeon.

-one time, Mikey spent the night at Baji’s house and had access to his PC. Mikey got on the BajiTrio server and blew up Kazutora’s house and that’s when all the beef started. (Shinichiro is alive and well in this universe!!)

-Mitsuya doesn’t game much, but when he does it’s because Luna and Mana want to play. Accordingly, he’s goated at games like Fashion Famous (pro model) and is pretty popular in any Royale High server he joins LMAO

-Hanma plays CSGO. And he’s reaaaal toxic on the game LMAO. Can see him 100% being one of those “drama” YouTubers who talk shit online while playing various video games. (Think Old Leafy or some shit.)

-Smiley and Angry are an inseparable Fortnite duo. Angry is overly nice and courteous, often handing off his really good weapons to his teammates when they ask for them, while Smiley is literally being toxic the ENTIRE time. Think of him saying stuff like, “Dude, you’re so ass.”, “Imagine whiffing every shot LMAOOOO”, and “BROOOOOOOOOO we lost because you suck!” at every given moment of a match. Accordingly, not a lot of people play with them so they usually fuck around in duos.

-Shinichiro grew up on OG Nintendo and struggles to really understand newer games because he stopped playing when school + work got busy for him so he didn’t have much time. He tries his best though when Mikey wants to play games with him, even if his best is pretty mid.

-Yuzuha and Hakkai play a lot of open-world RPGs, like Zelda, Genshin, and Star Rail. They especially like Genshin because they can play together. Hakkai mains Yelan and freezes up literally every time she says one of her voice lines. But Yuzuha is really into Yae Miko (or really any electro woman.)

-Emma mainly plays cute mobile games like Love:nikki, Hello Kitty World, or Happy Camper. She likes being able to make cute outfits/sets. She got a Switch so she could play Minecraft and ACNH, but she got into these games because of the PE edition and Happy Camper.

-Emma actually recommended ACNH to Mikey, who ended up getting addicted during COVID and literally could not peel himself away from his Switch for the entirety of Quarantine. But was he simply docile while playing? No, of course not. He was insanely aggressive with Tom Nook.

-Mikey actually forced Mitsuya to make Toman jackets in Animal Crossing. (Mitsuya also made all the boys’ MC skins.)

[screampied]

Can you show us how you do the coloring on your titles I couldn’t find it when I searched your acc😭😭

YEAH YEAH. sorry for the late reply sweetheart, but i'll walk u through it !!!! 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

example:

TOJI FAT C★CK NO CLICKBAIT ?!

so to start, there’s multiple websites to do this but the main one is use is stuffbydavid.com

once you get there, you’ll see something like this

it’s simple !! just follow the steps as they go, so for step one — enter your desired text. you can see that i already did that. so for step two, you’re allowed to choose whatever color effect you want.

all of the gradient effects are: horizontal (mixture of two colors), middle (kinda like horizontal), three colored, (three colors mixed), solid (just one color), random (picks any color for you), and colors of the rainbow (basically a default rainbow color for all)

the one i’m currently using for the example is three colored gradient !! my personal go to for my fics is always middle gradient tho.

anywho, back on the site — ignore step four.

as you can see for step five and the final step, it shows you the preview of your desired colors for your text. listen to this part because if you screw up, it won’t paste onto tumblr. you’re gonna wanna copy the HTML code from top to bottom. copy the entire code that’s shown, you might have to scroll a bit bc it’s pretty long (pause)

after this, you’re gonna wanna log into tumblr via the mobile browser. i forgot to mention, i’m doing this on the app version but it works for pc / laptop as well !! more complicated though but it all works the same.

so first, you’re gonna wanna make a new seperate draft — then press the little pencil icon to make edits.

look near the top right and click the settings icon

look where it says Text Editor and click near the right where it says 'Rich Text' bc ur gonna change that

after you click it, change it to HTML

it’s gonna send you here, make you’re you’re on HTML and not Preview yet. create a space above all the text that has like <p> and so on. paste your code, then that should be all !! save it and you can press preview afterwards to see the final results.

hope this helps :3

My PC's been out of commission since the end of August, in case anyone's wondering about the current lull in posting. I've been waiting on a new CPU cooler all week, and now it's looking like it won't arrive until Monday.

The last couple of posts have been painstakingly crafted on the mobile app - and if you've tried to edit a post on mobile, you can probably guess why I only made two.

This evening, though, I'm planning an extended liveblogging session, provided I can get the Homestuck Collection to run on our ancient family PC. I think I need to wipe it and reinstall the OS, but anything's better than wrestling with the app.

Anyway, I'll post here when I'm getting started. It'll probably be a couple hours.

Magma has most useful art program tools! But some are a little difficult to find, like layer opacity lock. You can export the images as PNGs and PSDs so you can save and keep all your layers etc.!

Hosting a session is easy! Set up a new canvas and share the link and that's it, you can start drawing. You can do public sessions like mine, or private sessions just with your close group. Update!! Previously you were able to use Magma anonymously without making an account, but this option does not exist anymore.

Our Magma event rules

Have fun! These events are meant to get you inspired, get to know other artists and create awesome art and ideas together!

Everyone is welcome to join my sessions! Doesn't matter where or when you join. You don't need to draw anything there, you can also just come and chat with us and watch others do their magic! Lurking is totally fine too!

Avoid drawing too big! Make sure to leave enough space for other people's drawings! Mind that there are 40-80 people partaking in these weekend events! (Max. 1/6th of the canvas per drawing is ideal!) We recommend to zoom in at 100-150% before you start drawing to avoid this. However! If you have an idea that others can contribute to, I'd be excited to hear it!! Those are highly appreciated!

Avoid drawing over the canvas frames!This is for possible future use in i.e. collages & personal aesthetics. They are there for a reason.

Keep it PG!

You are allowed to paste reference images in the session to use as a base etc.! Please remove them when you don't need them anymore and make sure not to cover areas where others are currently drawing!

When you are finished with your piece, please flatten your layers! The Magma total layer limit is 60 layers per canvas and it gets full rather fast. We have set a 8 layer limit per user/canvas. (If you have used layer effects in your piece, start flattening from bottom to top so they get preserved correctly!)

If you want to post/share Magma art that features other artists' works, you must ask for their permission first! This is very important!! Simple blur/solid color to hide them is ok, otherwise editing other people's art is not!

If you need more time to finish your piece, please let me know as soon as possible! If you know you aren't going to finish yours, please release the space for others to use!

Don't hesitate to ask anything! We are very happy to help out make the most of your session! Our regulars are all friendly and helpful, and my co-admin and mods are able to assist with i.e. getting your layers back!

Other tips!

Some users have experienced disasters losing layers for good by pressing CTRL + X, we recommend avoiding that for now!

Save regularly! Magma is a server based program so it's not as stable as your usual art programs, and also when the program refreshes you might lose some of your progress. Better saved than sorry! You can export the whole canvas as PNG, JPG & PSD!

You can have up to two Magma sessions open in your browser at once!

If you log out of the session you might lose rights to your layers. Please ask either the admin or approved users to give your layers back to you!

If Magma is going slow for you, it may be fixed by turning off the graphics accelerator. Go to Edit > Settings > Turn off Graphics Accelerator.

Merge layers with layer effects starting from bottom to top! For some reason Magma messes them up easily otherwise and the results will not look like you want.

Magma has a text chat we love to hang out in, it's of course optional but we would be happy to have you there!

You can send private messages to others by being on the same canvas with the receiver and clicking their icon!

Magma also has a voice call option. We prefer not to use it, but it's easy to misclick the button! Don't be alarmed!

We're continually figuring out new features and bugs in each session, I want to note down all of them to make the sessions as smooth and fun for you as possible! Let us know if you have any issues!

Also something notable: it's always well appreciated if you draw official Pokémon characters! Most of my followers are into submas or Pokémon in general so as the host I'd like to offer content most would enjoy! Some events welcome OCs but the free doodle session will always stay open for your characters!

After everyone is done I start post-processing the images. It may take a while until they are ready to be posted, please be patient! I will post the art on both my Twitter and Tumblr. You can use #jun's magma events for tagging your posts!

See you in our next event!! All aboard! <3

Okay, soft reminder for everyone trying for Sleep Token UK tickets tomorrow!

You have 3 chances to get them before re-sale:

(note - these are in London/Greenwich time, so check your timezones!)

Artist Presale: the one we signed up for directly through ST, and should (hopefully) get the codes for this evening via email - on Wednesday

Live Nation Presale: through the Live Nation site itself. You have to sign up for a My LiveNation account (free) to have access to it - on Thursday

General Sale - bloodbath; when the rest of the tickets will be released; may Sleep be with us lmao - on Friday

Note: make sure you have your card/payment info linked to your Live Nation account for faster checkout. You cannot do that on mobile or app, desktop only.

[EDIT: LiveNation no longer lets you link your payment info beforehand (even though their faq says otherwise 😒). So just have your cards saved on your browsers/etc]

If you don't have access to a pc, make sure you at least have your cards linked to your accounts (Google or whatever it is you use).

Good helpful guides in the replies of THIS POST and THIS POST.

Feel free to add any other info you find useful, and good luck to all of us 💙

Hello Mana 👋🏻

Did you know Iori's classic costume was actually a school uniform ? He doesn't wear that anymore, does that mean he finished studies ? And when the hell Kyo is graduating high school ?

I had an ask I answered a while ago with pics from one of the artbooks that basically debunked the modded school uniform thing (but I'm on mobile because it's too hot to turn the pc on right now, and I can't find it from my phone), Iori's original costume is based off high end fashion pieces (Vivienne Westwood and others), jacket included.

As for Kyo, he's officially a high school dropout, his dialogues with some characters in KoF XIII confirms it (iirc the whole Psycho Team asked something along the line and Beni had to stop them because it was a sensitive topic for Kyo, the SNK Wikia should still have all those dialogues).

And iirc in another very old book(I wish it wasn't so hellish hot so I could do a proper search on my PC and link stuff 😭) was told he did a 4th year, so he pretty much repeated the last year of school and then dropped it altogether.

EDIT: Here's the post about his clothes!

Hi! If i’m not mistaken, you use Otis camera mod and his DOF addon, right? Do you have any tips for getting the eyes (when you take a screenshot) really sharp and really focused? I think it’s hard getting the eyes sharp even though I set the magnifier on the eyes, but they often come out blurry anyway and my tav’s skin texture doesnt etc. Hope you understand my question! Maybe i have the wrong setting or something so just wondering if you’ve had the same problem or have a good solution (: thank you!

Hello! Yes, that is what I use, but I don’t really use any special setting to do that.

What I do use, is a lot of sharpening filters with reshade, and then with photoshop is just select the eye area, copy it onto a new layer, add sharpen filter and then export as PNG. It usually will help with any blurriness, but it is pretty subtle.

Here is what I do:

difference:

sharpened in PS

no edits made (difference doesn’t really show on mobile 😭 better on pc…)

You can use any editing app that does this kind of stuff.

Also, make sure that you don’t have the Max Bokeh Size as too large, because it make make it more blurry, especially the more you zoom in. If you are doing an up close shot, I recommend using 10-16 if it is shoulder and up, 25 being max if it’s a chest and up. Also make sure you are setting the Focus Delta X properly, so that you can clearly see the eyes (or whichever part you want in focus).
