I'd like to bring up that @sarazidan dmed me recently asking to share their story. I waited a few days since they weren't vetted, but since I haven't seen anything calling into question their legitimacy, I will share their GFM now. I'd like to apologize for the wait. Please donate to them if possible, and share if you are like me and cannot. They are VERY far from their goal. Again, apologies for the wait.

The goal of this GFM is to get their son Amir out of Gaza. Amir was suffering from a few medical conditions, and was getting physical therapy to help with those before the conflict (or genocide, more accurately) broke out. However, due to the ongoing attacks, all physical therapy centers have shut down. If Amir is to finish treatment, he must be evacuated from Gaza.

Don’t skip my story🙏

The child, Amir, must be treated🙏

A lot of very difficult and serious suffering happens to us. No one can understand or bear it. Today is a difficult day. My son Amir is in a very bad situation. Unfortunately, health centers and hospitals were destroyed. He is in a difficult situation. I have nothing left in this life except my family. After the occupation destroyed everything, our home, my future, and my dreams.

This campaign is dedicated to treating Amir. Amir suffered from a lack of oxygen at birth and muscle relaxation. Amir's condition was very bad, but with physical therapy and physiotherapy, he finally started moving. But with the war that broke out in Gaza, all physical therapy centers were closed, medicines were rare and sometimes absent, and their prices rose. Amir's condition began to get worse and worse. Amir must return to his physical therapy, and he has the right to return to walking. This situation is special and exceptional.

Amir must leave Gaza, complete his treatment, and live like any child in the world. There are no necessities for living in Gaza. It has become very difficult. The bombs that gather above our heads, poison us with the water we drink. There is no food except at fantastic prices. We suffer from high temperatures. Children who cannot afford it.

Adopt Amir's case Consider him your child❤️

Fahed ( @fahedshehab-new ), Sahar’s father, reached out to me this morning asking for help in spreading their story. Their campaign is vetted by el-shab-hussein.

I’m happy to report that they’re over halfway to their goal at almost €29k of €50k reached! But they still need our help. I donated €15; I urge everyone to match my donation. If 1.4k people donate €15, the Shehab family will be able to evacuate Gaza. Please donate what you can.

🚨IF YOU IGNORE THIS, YOU ARE DOOMING MY FAMILY TO DEATH

These are skin diseases that have spread in the camp. My little brother, who is 4 years old, cannot sleep because of the severe pain. He is in severe pain and is alone. He has been isolated from all the children for fear of the spread of infection. Unfortunately, there are no medical points or care here. Please, I cannot bear to lose him after I lost many members of my family. Help me, my friends, by donating or sharing the link to help him travel for treatment.

Spot the difference: Scam Edition

Notice anything different? @nesmamomen has been vetted by el-shab-hussein in reference to her GoFundMe, "Help Nesma and her family evacuate." As well as her family members Farah and Dr. Shahad having a separate GoFundMe, "Donate to Help Dr. Shahad and Farah complete their education," be verified by 90-ghost. Yet nessmamomen has a blog identical to hers, except with a PayPal link going to someone named Ama'l Alanqar'r. Make sure you're promoting the correct account!

Make sure to report nessmamomen for phishing!

Help Ahmed 💔

Ahmed, our 4-year-old child, suffers from diabetes. Amid the war, his condition has severely worsened due to the lack of his medication and insulin. We struggle monthly to obtain the necessary insulin needles for him, at exorbitant prices and with great difficulty❤️‍🩹💔.

Ahmed needs .4 gauge needle tips suitable for his age, but he has been forced to use .8 gauge needles, which cause him great pain, making him cry every time he receives an insulin injection. However, today Ahmed is very happy because we managed to get .4 gauge needle tips after nine months of pain🥹🥹.

Ahmed is supposed to have a special diet for diabetes, but he is forced to eat whatever is available here since the appropriate food is not accessible, which harms his health.

Ahmed should check his blood sugar levels 3 to 5 times daily, but due to the unavailability of test strips, we only test him when absolutely necessary, which happens about once a week.

Help Ahmed obtain his most basic right, which is the right to treatment. You can help by sharing the campaign link or donating🙏🏻🙏🏻. Here is the campaign link:

I'm Amal, 33 years old. My husband Eyad is 39, and we have seven children: Hala (15), Nour (13), Abdelrahman (11), Mohammed (9), Omar (6), Ahmed (4), and baby Hoor, just 7 months old.

In the blink of an eye, we awoke to a devastating barrage of bombs. The war had begun, and soon tanks surrounded us as the northern Gaza Strip was declared off-limits. We fled immediately from the north, leaving behind my husband who had to stay with his elderly father who cannot walk. The presence of checkpoints and the prohibition of vehicles forced my husband to remain in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in the north of Gaza.

My four-year-old son, Ahmed, suffers from diabetes. It is a constant struggle to find insulin injections and test strips. Weeks go by without being able to check his sugar levels, leaving me in fear of whether his levels are too high or too low.

Ahmed's condition break my heart

My children are the love of my life

I fled on foot, just ten days after giving birth. I carried my ten-day-old baby and my other young children, alone, fighting for their safety. A few days later, the northern Gaza Strip was completely isolated, leaving my husband trapped.

I cannot bear the panic attacks that Hoor suffers from the constant bombing

It was incredibly difficult to care for my children without my husband, moving from one place to another. I finally sought refuge in a shelter school in Deir Al-Balah.

My children have been deprived of their father, who used to provide all their needs. Their schooling has been halted, and their mental health is in ruins due to the war. My baby girl cannot get proper nutrition and is unable to sleep due to the constant sounds of bombs.

We share our room at school with 40 people, lacking water and sanitary supplies

My husband remains in the north, experiencing severe famine. Periodically, I manage to contact him, learning that he is still alive, but his situation is dire.

We want to escape Gaza and survive this tragic war, to build a decent life for my family, providing the basics of life: food, medical care, and a safe home.

Your donations can make a world of difference for us. Every dollar can help us escape this nightmare and start anew. Your generosity can reunite our family, provide essential medical care for Ahmed, and ensure my children grow up in a peaceful environment.

Your kindness and support mean everything to us. May God bless you for your compassion.

Greetings & Gratitude🙏

Amal

🛑JUST READ...

Since I was born, I have lived in continuous wars. I cannot forget the first moments of the war that took place in 2008 when I was a first grader, only seven years old. When the bombing started, I did not know what it was. I hid under the table and screamed, and my heart was beating fast with fear. Now, after many years and wars, I cannot get used to this torment. I cannot forget the sight of a body after being torn apart by a missile. Nightmares still haunt me, and suffocation attacks still occur in my sleep. I often wonder what I did to deserve all this, to deserve seeing my father’s body covered in wounds and signs of torture after he was arrested by the Israeli army without committing any crime. I do not know what I did to watch my brother bleed for hours and not be able to help him. When I received the news of the death of many members of my family in the bombing of the house, I could not express my pain, it is indescribable. Was I created to live through all this pain? I wish I could die if the rest of my life is more pain in Gaza and more wars. But in the end, I ask you only one thing: Help me live the rest of my life outside the circle of war. Help me feel safe, away from the bombing, suffering and hunger. I am not forcing you to do anything. You can help me by donating if you can or by sharing this post. Thank you for your humanity.

My campaign has already been verified.

Can you do a tutorial on drawing knight armor? Both for male and female bodies, please.

for learning to draw armor i’d use a similar approach to the one i used for drawing swords!

again, there are two main things i’d suggest focusing on:-studying the different parts of an armor and how they workand-visualizing the armor as 3d shapes

i found some sites that go over things like armor parts and their functions here and here, a lot of nice photo reference here, and a bunch of labelled diagrams on google images

i couldn’t find any clear image reference for how medieval armor is layered but you can see that in this video of a guy getting armor put on

basically though i think its a bit like this:

there is a lot of liberty you can take with the details, shapes, and proportions etc, (also remember, medieval europe isn’t the only era armor comes from!) so you can use that to communicate things like the time period and culture the armor is from, the personality of its wearer, etc.

with simplifying armor into 3d shapes i’d basically just use a regular human body as a base. having a decent grasp of anatomy really helps with this i think

there is technically little or no difference between actual male/female armor, from the way i understand things at least (armor is just armor after all), but you can take a look at this post of mine for strategies you can use to make armor look more masculine or feminine

and then of course there’s that boob plate thingthere are reasons why those don’t really work in real life but you could always pull out the artistic liberty card so

So my friends and I were talking about Puss In Boots: The Last Wish, and I wanted to say that I found Antonio Banderas’ voice attractive, but I accidentally said Puss and now they all think I’m a fucking furry.
