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.

This is my art progress account btw it just birthed

@lnakoi on my main. I use they/ze/xe/he pronouns.

About this account:

I'm currently earning a bachelors in studio art. Which is a very general major in the school i am in. I've come to the realization (as of 3/28/24) that for an artist i am very lazy.

I take studio classes. I do homework. I attend every art history lecture. I get good grades. I improve. I do fanart and work on OCs. I don't really do more than that. I'd like to do more than that. I want to see the clear progression of ups and downs of my art.

I'd like to use this blog to kinda hold myself accountable. Try to post practice work regularly and take homework assignments a step more than the bare minimum to look good.

I'll also probably post facts i find out in my art classes i find interesting or random thoughts i have about art that i can't really share anywhere else.

I know that we assumed that Sam was a Jon parallel (new job, mysterious traumatic past, scrawniest brown man in Britain) but i don't think he is anymore. Paranoia, an unhealthy obsession with workplace mysteries, absolutely doomed by the narrative? That's all Colin.

Meanwhile, look at Sam. He's obsessed with the Magnus Institute, to be sure, but unlike Jon, he's actually good at it. He's reckless, willing to follow any leads no matter how dangerous or weird. He listens to mysterious sources that any self respecting horror protagonist (cough Alice cough) would flag as risky. But beyond that, he's also smart, confident, and brave. He's not only easy to like, he's easy to underestimate. And that's not Jon.

That's Sasha
