Oh the burning urge to write and draw silly stories about my OCs instead of studying for my graduation exams and working on portfolio to apply to animation school 🥲

My life in school right now

#that's my life right there

i have so many hobbies and interests but each day the four horsemen (instant gratification, shortened attention span, procrastination, exhaustion) grab me by the throat and shake me until i collapse in my comfy bed

FR. I literally cannot get ANYTHING done

#hyperfixiations are cool, but also kinda suck

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.

Wow. 2024 huh?

Well, I'll be honest. It was a good year for me. I met so many cool people, visited Canada for the first time, had really fun hyperfixiations and actually felt alive.

I'm really grateful for that year and I hope will be able to spend this one in a fun and impactful way as well.

And I wish this to everyone who reads this post as well.

Have a good 2024 guys! Let's survive it with style ✨

Have fun <3

"Cooking is an art, baking is a science. Candy making is sorcery. It's black magic. I'm six failed attempts at fudge in, candy is a cruel joke that sugar plays on god"

"the worst thing she can say is no" actually, no...the worst thing she can say is "I paid the price, now fuck off" after she sacrificed her virginity to send you to hell

this actually happened to my buddy Max

As a writer that's one of my biggest fears

the fear of sharing your work not because you're worried people will hate it or mock it or think it's terrible...but instead that it will elicit nothing from them. that it will be unremarkable. that it won't matter to anyone but you

[harrvena]

I made this

Instagram is a shitty place to grow an art account and we all know that. Honestly not sure how tumblr works in that department, but at least I can go more neurodivergent things I guess?
