So you might be saying: Lion why a guide on drawing black people? Well young blood it’s because a lot of people cant…seem…to draw…black people..Amazing I know.Â
Racist (caricatures) portrayals of black people have been around forever, and to this day people can’t seem to draw black people like they are human. If your artwork resembles any of the above even remotely your artwork is racist and offensive. If you try to excuse that as a stylistic choice you’re not only a terrible artist, but racist too!!! Congrats.
Whitewashing is also a problem. A lot of people refuse to draw black features on canonly black characters. While this example isn’t colored, lightening the skin-tone of a character is also considered whitewashing. So lets start with features!
Now all black people have different noses thats a no-brainer, but black noses tend to have flatter bridges, and wider nostrils. Please stay from triangular anime noses and small button noses. Your drawings should not depict black people with abnormally large noses. (Especially if you do not draw other characters this way)
If you feel like the way you draw lips on black characters is offensive or resembles a caricature,it probably does and you should change it. ABSOLUTELY AVOID PLACING LIPS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FACE.Â
Hair is so diverse! Please get used to drawing braids, locs,kinks and coils! If you can learn to draw ringlets and long waves you can learn how to draw black hairstyles.
Add clips! Learn how to draw baby-hairs and never be afraid to add color Pinterest and Google are free my dudes! Also try using square brushes for blocking in coils.
OK THAT’S ALL YOU GUYS

cannot stop thinking about how, from jean’s pov, neil is a Creature. an insane little man. jean expresses physical attraction or at least physical appreciation towards many of the characters in this book, and despite the foxes’ insistence that neil is good looking, to jean neil is always just… a weird and slightly unsettling presence. a strange and arrogant creature with no leash on him. an uncanny force of nature.

Sucks that “sleeping together” refers to sex. Sometimes a fella just wants to snooze with a pal.

the point of art is not to be great but to make it transparently obvious that there is something wrong with you

"You bastard!" Barty doesn't think twice before throwing himself at the idiot who decided to try and push Pandora around. It's not that Pandora can't take care of herself - she absolutely can - but she also is one of Barty's best friends. And he will stand up for her no matter wha-
"Barty, you already have a detention for fighting, they'll call your father if you fight again now," someone murmurs while draging him away. Regulus. It's Regulus. But isn't he supposed to be on a date with James?
That question is answered to him when he hears a yelp and turns around to find James punching the bastard, twice.
Huh
Maybe Barty does like James after all

Hello! All very well?
I'm sending this message here because I think it's less invasive than in a private message, and I also didn't know if you check requests frequently. ASK seemed more accessible 🤕
I'm a fanfic writer and also a cover artist (basically someone who designs covers for stories; this helps when it comes to attracting readers), mainly in the anime category. While looking for anime art, I saw your MechaMiwa and I was enchanted! I'm in love with them.
I would like to know if I have your permission to edit with them/repost them on these covers. Making it clear that I will not profit from your work. No way. It is for personal use only (fanfics). Much less modify your artist traits.
An example, HERE is where I host these covers.
I await your reply. If your answer is no, it won't make me like your art any less. They are absolutely perfect!
omg hiii!! thank you for such a respectful message. you are free to use my art however you want as long as you put me as an artist and maybe link my tumblr too :) please come back to me when you do some of your covers, i would loooove to see how they turn out!! hugs hugs hugs <3
