colored sketch

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.

Both. Salem - the mysterious prince of darkness (actually a big soft cuddly baby but he`s quiet and independent)

Nichka (Nighty) - La creatura. Dont let the elegance fool you, shes the silliest little gremlin that jumps on your back, chews your hair, then bolts outta the room.

Which is Your Black Cat?

Life update

Hi all, sorry for being gone Wasn't doing too vell lately, turned out it's a depressive episode I am in treatment now Good news about the kittens: 2 of them (the grey ones) got adopted the black ones live with me And while being absent, I rescued 6 more, of which I got 4 adopted :>

Some pics of them :> (unfortunately didn`t take pics of the adopted ones with their new owners)

Im also in training to become a vet surgeon (Ive got a degree but never put it to use), as Im not making enough for living with my art and need a stable job, so idk how often will I post from now on and if Ill have time to draw anything worth posting

I will absolutely draw this when I get my computer fixed someone PLEASE remind me if this in like a week or 2...............................

i feel like the deep would wear this one fuck-ugly piece from the ad on my dash and he'd rock it

Sup

Hi guys, Im not dead, my cheap ass tablet killed my PC and I was too broke to get it fixed Will be back soon

It's Deepposting time

It's been over a year and I'm still simping for this dude hard

Don't ask me what's wrong with me cause I have answers.

Once again shoutout to my customer who made it possible for me to keep working on this set of pics in-between commishes!

I feel that on so many levels

Hang in there bro you're not alone

Love my parents but when they can’t tell the difference between something I drew last night and something I drew 3 years ago it really makes me hate myself 💖

Thank you so much! I would gladly tell about them if you're interested! But I gotta put a warning out there that these characters are all kinds of problematic and Ian is one of the worst :'D

Is there anywhere I can view your old Art Station content? Would you be willing to Reupload it?

Hello!

Sorry, I don't think I will be sharing my OC content in the open anymore, at least atm I feel that way

I shared it online bc I needed feedback to motivate me to create, but now I came to a point where I no longer need it. Now I only care about feedback about my writing rather than drawings, and only that comes from people I care about, so I only feel like sharing my art when I'm telling about my OCs and stories to new people I want to connect with

I appreciate that you care about my art so much that you found me here, truly

I can share some in DMs if you want

and feedback only matters if it's about the characters and story rather than the drawing itself, so I found myself not needing to share so now I

yes all my favorite characters are desperate to be loved. no i don’t think that says anything about me

Learn to articulate how you're feeling without accusing anyone of having bad intentions. You can say "I'm afraid of being alone" without saying "you're just going to leave me like everyone else." You can say "I need some reassurance" without saying "you probably don't love me anymore." You can say "I'm afraid I've hurt your feelings and I'd like to talk it through" without saying "you don't even like me anymore." You can say "I want to spend more time with you" without saying "you've gotten tired of me." You can say "I feel misunderstood" without saying "you always judge me." Try not to let your emotions get the best of you. Have a conversation focused on finding solutions instead of escalating the conflict.

Guys, I don't know where to go atm, so I'll put my hope in tumblr magic:

I need money, very, very urgently, so I'm opening commissions (head - 20$, half - 45$, full - 75$, but I'm willing to do a discount bc I need it very urgently)

I know I don't have many followers here but I tried my other platforms and had no luck so I'm putting my hope in this post

Art examples:

If anyone is interested what I need it for - trigger warning: animal abuse

Someone poisoned stray kittens in my area, that I cared for and was trying to find homes for. I managed to save some of them, but now I am in a credit and have literally only 4$ on my bank account. I know it's my fault that I ended up in such a situation, I shouldn't have taken responsibilities I can't fulfill, but I couldn't watch them die and was hoping that I will, as usual, as every month before it for past 9 years, have at least some commishes to take care of it
