hey! i’m sure you get asks looking for art advice all the time, so feel free to redirect me if this is something you’ve answered before. i am so charmed by your art, especially the diversity of shapes in your characters and the way that you draw bodies! i really want to practice drawing more but i can’t seem to get The Human Form right. do you have any tips?

Sure thing! I’ve mentioned these tips in the past but it’s been quite some time since then so I’m happy to reiterate them! :-]

The big three things u always recommend when wanting to improve in any way, whether that’s with faces or body types, or even backgrounds, it’s always 1) observational studies 2) master studies and 3) practice practice practice!

1) Observational Studies. If you wanna get good at something, you gotta look at it a bunch! This can be figure drawing, going out to a park, or mall or other setting and drawing people you see, gathering reference online, though I always always always recommend figure drawing or live drawing on location over just looking at images if you’re able to! (COVID safety first ofc) all my best improvements have always come from just going out and drawing what I see, the world is full of diversity and wonderful people, and there are some schools that offer free figure drawing sessions if you have a student ID! This is why I always carry a sketchbook with me as well (and maybe a pair of glasses to keep it sneaky if ur nervous jaja) that way if an opportunity ever comes for some life drawing, I have the tools needed to do so!

2) Master Studies! So, you like the way I draw figures and different body types? I give you full permission to trace my art! I’m serious. Studying the way another person draws something is not only another great tool for learning, but a natural way for you to develop your art style! That’s why art students go to museums, or children trace their favorite characters, those artists have techniques and ideas to teach us! Study them, break up the form of a figure they drew, try to copy their style, see what tools they used, etc! This can also be expressions from a tv series, or a character design from a cartoon, or outfits from a magazine! Of course this is just for yourself, so you don’t really ever share or post these, but it is absolutely an underrated form of practice that I wish wasn’t so looked down upon (mostly by people who don’t know what they’re talking about to be fair lmao) despite being one of the ways a lot of us professionals get better!

3) Practice! Now taking those first two tips, you’re going to apply it to your own characters/designs/art and just do it a bunch of times! I usually recommend 15-30 minutes of drawing every day, 1 hour if you have the stamina for it! You can do a bunch of figure studies or some of those master studies as well for those 30 min. Just getting your hand and brain used to what you’re trying to learn!

In this doc I have the websites I use for figure drawing as well as some anatomy books and other resources in case you need them!

I hope this helps! If you ever have any questions or want some direct or specific advice my dm’s are always open :-]

What Happens in the ATL- Tom Holland x OFC Natalia: One

A/N: Here’s the first chapter friends! Sorry this is so short but I feel like this gives a very good description of how I feel about Tom. I’m sure y’all can tell when you read through this, that Natalia is based off me. This is also the name of one the daughters I hope to have in the future. I hope too, that with a new job (DM me if you wanna know what happened) and with working less hours in a day, I can be able to write more!

Intro

Feedback is welcome! Tag list requests are open!

Finding love hasn’t been an easy task and Natalia Richardson surely knew all about it. For her, most of the guys she was attracted to usually turned out to be jerks, immature, or just wanting to get her into bed. She was a strong, independent woman, who was more concerned with making herself happy and getting her life in order. Most people thought she was strange because her history with relationships was very limited; only had one that she could count. Sure, she’s spent time with a variety of ‘bachelors’ in her lifetime, but only one was worthy of the title boyfriend. And even with him, it only lasted approximately one week, so she decided to focus on herself. She wanted to be the very best version of herself she could be, wanting to do what makes her happy and not wanting to have to ask permission from anyone. Her life was finally going in a good direction: she had a good job, she got to travel with friends, do whatever she wanted to for the most part. Now, she was working on her mental health and once that was under more control, she would think about a relationship. But it was never her first priority. Her family and friends were more important to her, aside from herself.

There was one friend in particular, whom she really admired and wished she could spend more time with. It was a different kind of friendship, one where they only met in person just once. Her friend T, was someone she met online and had gotten to meet face-to-face on one occasion. However, both girls felt rather close to the other, because of often they talked. Almost every day, they would talk about their personal lives, but they enjoyed several of the same interests, so they talked about those too. T was three years younger than Natalia and they were very different from the other, but they believed that was what made their friendship strong. With differences of opinions and where they were in life, they seemed to come from two different worlds almost. T was already married and lived in another state than Natalia; two opposites. But this was the foundation of what their friendship was built on. Both girls could accept where the other was and their differences and that created a healthy relationship. Who says you have to always agree with every little opinion someone else had? Natalia always made it known that she believed people who always agreed with everyone else, lacked their own individuality and she felt sorry for them.

The news came one day, that T was going to move from South Carolina to Atlanta, Georgia because her husband got a better job. She couldn’t wait to tell Natalia her good news, that as soon as she knew for sure, she sent a text to Natalia immediately.

T: Nat, you are not going to believe what just happened!

N: What’s that?

T: Alex (T’s husband) just got a job in Atlanta so we’re moving down there!

N: Wow, that’s great! Tell him congratulations from me!

T: I will! And guess what else is going on down there?

N: What?

T: They’re filming the newest Spiderman movie!

N: No way! Omg, you might get to meet Tom Holland!

T: Probably not, but it’s exciting to think about!

N: Well yes, but it’d be better if you get to meet him.

T: I don’t think I will with this stupid virus.

N: Yeah, that’s probably true. But who knows, you might just run into him somewhere.

N: And if you do, you should totally give him my number and tell him to text me lol

T: You know, I might just do that but I would give him my number too

N: But you have Alex! Come on, that’s not fair; I have no one!

T: Well, I love him too but fine If I see him, I’ll tell him to text you.

N: Now was that so hard?

T: Yeah, yeah, thank me later.

N: I will if you follow through.

T: I need to meet him first, you dork. And it’s hard to right now because I’m sure they’re not hiring any extras or allowing any fans around to watch the filming.

N: Okay, okay, fine. Just don’t forget!

T: How can I with you reminding me all the time?

N: I’ve only said it once!

T: Yeah, for now.

N: Ok you win this round.

Natalia smiles to herself and heads out to work for the day. She knows the chances of T actually getting to meet Tom and that she would give him her number, is completely low, but she could dream, right? No harm in that. Heading into the office for her shift, Natalia had a difficult time concentrating on her tasks at hand. Why? Because Tom Holland had wiggled himself into her mind and just lived there for a few years. And quite often, someone said or did something that reminded her of him. Or she saw his picture somewhere and it reminded her of why she loved him. Or she’d read an interview or saw a video of his, saw his social media posts, and it made her long for him. She was very passionate and when she liked someone, whether she knew them personally, or she just followed them, she dove in headfirst. For instance, when she first saw Tom Holland in the Marvel film, Captain America: Civil War, she immediately took a liking to him. She thought he was adorable and did very well filling the shoes of an iconic character like Spiderman. Natalia grew up with the likes of Toby McGuire playing the character, so just like the majority of her generation, she was hesitant to accept another one. In reality, Tom was the third actor to play Peter Parker that she could remember. They had Andrew Garfield try to fill the iconic shoes as well, but he didn’t do as well. So, it was only natural that she was afraid to accept another actor for a character she grew up loving. But when she saw him on screen, she was impressed with how he held his own up against some of the greats like Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and so many other big names that the Marvel Cinematic Universe had recruited for their films. Then when she got home, she did a Google search on him and learned they were very close in age. Something about being close in age to someone in the entertainment business really brought a sense of pride to Natalia. It wasn’t because she could do the same thing but when someone her age is making a name of themselves, she’s proud because maybe it seemed like people would appreciate the younger generations. As a good writer Natalia knows says, “when you are young, they assume you know nothing.”

From the first time she saw him nearly five years ago until now, she has managed to admire him and had in a way, fallen in love with him. She watched more movies, read interviews, watched/read his social media posts, and managed to learn all she could about him. It was safe to say, she was a fangirl. But it was more to her than just someone she admired or thought was attractive. No to her, he was someone that meant a lot to her and she would do anything to get the opportunity to meet him and spend a little one-on-one time with him. Just to talk to him and learn more about him because he seemed fascinating to her. He is the oldest of four boys, grew up in a completely different country than her, and was a freaking movie star! The kinds of questions she would ask him and the conversations they would have. One topic she would want to talk about is the difference between American and British cultures. The ways they differed in how they were raised, the kinds of foods they ate, the clothes they wore, what schools were like, grocery stores, shopping malls, restaurants, cars, roads, lots of things were different! She would love to learn all about what kind of life he led before he starting making a name for himself. Then she would tell him all about her life and what life was like for her growing up Stateside. All she wanted was just a chance, a chance to even just make a friend, let alone it going anywhere more than friendship; she was just interested in him.

do y'all take submissions for fics that have already been posted on a blog? like, do you reblog those, or repost those or whatever? (with the author's permission ofc)

If the submission is from the author, sure! A lot of authors also post to AO3, for example.

If there’s a story on AO3 that is a COMPLETED multichapter fic, then people can submit with a heading/AN, link and tags, and we can post that way, with the link replacing “read more.” If it’s just one chapter or a one shot, they need to submit normally.

So basically yes: but not direct reblogs because we want to keep the formatting standard.

Feel free to DM me if you have any more specific questions or need help with submitting. @veronicasanders

Hello Nic! Is it okay if I ask if you're still doing long commissions? I haven't seen you post any for some time and I know you're busy so I don't want to add on your plate if they were closed :)

goodmorning!!! i've had longfic commissions lately, but i haven't been posting a majority of them bc they're all more or less touching really personal topics. so for those fics because y/n doesn't fit in the greyscale anymore it feels off to post it as an x reader thing when it really isn't anymore asdhasdh

there are some (which i have permission to post) that i plan to post this month though :) i just want to sneak in a few more personal drabbles and interact w u all more before i do that hehe. i have missed u all very much. i think i should be posting a more formal comms sheet since i am changing a few things (not the pricing dw!!) but to reserve a spot since i'm gonna start limiting how much i do per month, u can ofc dm me :) thank you for showing interest!!!
