Can't afford art school?

After seeing post like this 👇

And this gem 👇

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.

Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.

📺Here is my list:

Proko (Free, mostly teaches anatomy and how to draw people. But does have art talks and teaches the basics.)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard and teaches you everything)

Aaron Rutten (free, tips about art, talks about art programs and the best products for digital art)

BoroCG (free, teaches a verity of art mediums from 3D modeling to digital painting. As well as some tips that can be used across styles)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free, teaches digital painting and has classes in Spanish)

Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)

Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price. Mostly teaching character designs and simple backgrounds.)

SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)

Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)

The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney. Mostly nature art)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Sinix Design (has some tips on drawing people)

Winged canvas (art school for free on a verity of mediums)

Bob Ross (just a good time, learn how to paint, as well as how too relax when doing art. "there are no mistakes only happy accidents", this channel also provides tips from another artist)

Scott Christian Sava (Inspiration and provides tips and advice)

Pikat (art advice and critiques)

Drawbox (a suggested cheap online art school, made of a community of artist)

Skillshare (A cheap learning site that has art classes ranging from traditional to digital. As well as Animation and tutorials on art programs. All under one price, in the USA it's around $34 a month)

Human anatomy for artist (not a video or teacher but the site is full of awesome refs to practice and get better at anatomy)

Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.

📚Here is my list:

The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.

"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.

"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.

"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.

"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.

"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.

"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.

"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.

"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.

Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.

📝As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. If you want to go fancy Michaels is always a good place for traditional supplies. They also get in some good sales and discounts. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are usually more expensive.

For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.

💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.

Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates. Galaxy, Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone, Android, or Chromebook device. )

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99 usd, IPAD & IPHONE ONLY)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, animation and more. Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Aseprite ($19.99 usd but has a free trail, for pixel art Windows & macOS)

Drawpile (free and for if you want to draw with others)

IbisPaint (free, phone app ONLY)

Medibang (free, IPAD, Android and PC)

NOTE: Some of these can work on almost any computer like Clip and Sai but others will require a bit stronger computer like Blender. Please check their sites for if your computer is compatible.

So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.

I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.

Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

[ramen8008]

Tony "I have better things to do" Stark who immediately adopts a dog because he overheard Peter saying that he had always wanted to raise one.

Bucky "Get this kid out of here" Barnes who immediately drags Peter into the gym because he saw Peter get hurt and wants to teach him better self defense techniques.

Steve "I have no time for this" Rogers who goes to Peter's report card day whenever Aunt May or Tony are busy. (He secretly gets happy when Peter asks him to go)

Natasha "I don't need this relationship" Romanoff who spoils and treats Peter like he's her kid because she won't ever be able to have her own.

Bruce "I don't have the patience" Banner who drops everything and anything whenever he finds out that Peter is injured. (He patiently listens to Peter's rambling while he's treating him)

Thor "Who do you think you are" Odinson who treats Peter like a little brother because he reminds him of Loki's clumsy personality when they were kids.

Clint "I don't need another kid" Barton who plays catch with Peter at 5:30 pm when he has to stay in the tower for a long time because that's the time he plays with his kids.

finally a long one cause I was inactive for a few days, hope you guys enjoy♡

[ramen8008]

Tony: Peter, can I see you in my office?

Peter, holding back laughter as he puts on a camo jacket: you can try

[ramen8008]

[ramen8008]

Your fav pepperony fics? Pls give summary too

hi there, so sorry it took me... over half a year to get to this, i threw this into my drafts midway through compiling the list because i was sure that i was missing a few faves, and ended up forgetting about it entirely *facepalm*

in case you're still looking for recs, here are some all time faves of mine that i have reread often over the years <3

Mnemosyne's Lock by VR_Trakowski / 44.8k

It's Pepper who's hurt, but it's Tony who needs the comfort...

Written after Iron Man; now AU.

Drive by roboticonography / 27.2k

Tony and Pepper attempt a friends-with-benefits relationship. It goes about as well as you’d expect.

Seven Times Over by roboticonography / 7.4k

Seven different ways a "stable-ish relationship" might play out.

Pepper Potts Gets a Life by roboticonography / 6.5k

Pepper decides it's time to stop obsessing over Tony and get a life of her own. It doesn't go quite the way she planned.

inches and miles by jdphoenix / 6.8k

Nine times out of ten Tony's the one taking advantage when Pepper gives him an inch. But when they both slip up in the one way that matters most, fate takes the reins, taking them both that extra mile and then some.

On Soulmate Theory by gth694e (anthology fic) Chapter 4: Delayed Recognition / 2.4k

The most common misconception of soulmate theory is that a soulmate will always be initially recognized—through either logic or the rush of feeling. However, this is not the case.

The primary tenet of soulmate theory is that the words on a person’s left wrist represent the first words spoken directly to that person by their soulmate. But not everyone meets their soulmate in a tête-à-tête. Not everyone actually hears their soulmate say the words they’ve been waiting for their entire lives. And people can move around each other for years, not realizing that this person who somehow became a constant in their life is actually the person their soul was designed for.

Snowed In by tiny_spy / 9.2k

“You’ve gotta be kidding me,” Pepper whispered.

Tony and Pepper end up sharing a room in an overbooked hotel during a snow storm. Takes place in the middle of Iron Man 2.

for today or the rest of my life (orphaned) / 8.3k

Pepper finds a boyfriend. Tony hates to share.

Black Market Baby by sabinelagrande / AU / 10.7k

Tony's money buys him way more than he bargained for.

[ramen8008]

Chat: if you don't like me at my Chat Noir then you don't deserve me at my Adrien.

Ladybug: if you like me at my Ladybug, then you really can't handle me at my Marinette

[ramen8008]

I’ve been thinking a lot lately how one of the first things Tony said to Steve Roger, former enemy, who he hadn’t talked in maybe a year, was: I lost the kid.

And he didn’t say Peter. He didn’t say Spiderman. He said THE KID. Like it was a well common fact EVEN TO STEVE ROGERS who the kid was. What Peter meant to him. I’m gonna go crazy thinking about that.

This is one of the million reasons no one can convince me they didn’t spend a lot more time together after Homecoming. That Peter didn’t show up at the lab, THERE’S EVEN A AD WHERE TONY TELL HAPPY TO INVITE PETER TO A PARTY BECAUSE HE LIKES THE KID, he listened to Peter’s audios to Happy, he was so close to Peter in a way that EVEN STEVE ROGERS KNEW WHO THE KID WAS AND TONY IMMEDIATELY HAD TO TELL HIM ABOUT HIS LOSS.

I go insane sometimes thinking about the year gap in Homecoming and Infinity War (year or a few month I don’t remember exactly). What did they do together, how they bonded, how Tony every day found himself loving this nerd kid so much. He had a picture of Peter in his house. He grieved Peter for FIVE YEARS.

Said picture, always nice to tell, WAS WHAT PUT HIM TO INVENT FUCKING TIME TRAVEL AND BRING THE WHOLE WORD BACK. Tony wasn’t gonna do it. He didn’t lost Pepper. Or Morgan.

But he lost Peter.

I go crazy sometimes thinking about these two and the phrase “I lost the kid” was a lot in my mind lately oh how I wish to know exactly what happened in the year gap

But also not because I’m good with the fics and hcs and sometimes it’s just good to know that they bonded and saw each other as father and son but WE create the content for it!

[ramen8008]

Tony: it was like she reach in and touched my heart

Everyone: awww

Pepper: *flashbacks of literally touching Tony's heart*

[ramen8008]

YES because I DO giggle and smile and blush every time I get a comment

And I DO leave a comment under a fox telling the author how their fanfic made me giggle, smile, blush and/or cry

[ramen8008]

I recently learned that the Avalon protocol exists.

Something that 616 Tony made by scanning his brain so the suit could keep fighting as if he's still piloting it if Tony dies in battle.

I absolutely hate how easy it is to believe he would do that.

[ramen8008]

IRONWIDOW BROMANCE HEADCANONS

Tony gives Natasha a lot of gifts. Mainly because it's always amusing to see her be suspicious of a gift and spend hours trying to find the hidden meaning behind one

Nat gets hurt + she has another mission = Tony barging into Fury's office = Nat no longer has any missions for the upcoming 2 weeks

Anytime there's an annoying businessman Tony has his charming smile (cause he can't tell them to fuck off) and Nat's glare from behind him to scare them away so Tony no longer has to talk to them

Stupid inside jokes

Tony horrified at Nat's lack of fashion sense but instead of making her get into a nice dress or look "fashionable" he just dresses good enough for the both of them

Nat shows her love for Tony by allowing his nicknames

Also by hurting anyone who hurts him

When one of them gets too in their heads and nobody can get the other out they very much allow manipulation tactics to help each other get out of that state

Casual physical touch. Nothing too much but legs on the others lap, arm around shoulder, pat on the back. But if anyone else even tries to do the same? They get punched

Race car driving competitions

Burger eating competitions

Just a lot of competitions

Both on the list of people that are allowed to kill them.

They switch places. Like they just go to each other's meetings and don't acknowledge the fact.

Bike around.

Nat threatened to snitch to Pepper a lot

Nat has a suit made for her which Tony doesn't acknowledge but knows that Nat knows and if anything happened to her the suit will go to her

Tony made her an evaluation to get back at her and filled it with random stuff like, "lacks fashion sense" and "short"

Nat has another file on Tony which is more accurate but isn't known to anyone

Rhodey and Nat talk about Tony. He assumes it's them making fun but they are just trying to get him to take care of himself

Tony has a list of people that have pissed off Nat. Mainly because she chooses her fights and Tony decides to pick up the ones she leaves behind

[ramen8008]

i still think one of tumblr's darkest moments (much worse than anything i've seen before and i have been here since 2011) was when random fandom bloggers started doing confidently accusing people living through a genocide of being scammers. i think there's a lot that has happened on this website but the juxtaposition of running something so trivial as a fandom blog (i have been in fandom for a long time and triviality here is not an insult but an understanding of what makes it light) while doing something so enormously heavy and dark has me reeling

[ramen8008]

whenever I see an anti percabeth tag I have to hold myself back from arguing, (it’s a opinion about a fictional couple it is not that serious) but whoever says that percabeth is bad because “annabeth is abusive” is just??? No????!!!

And if you think that because of the comments about Percy worrying about being a good boyfriend to annabeth, it isn’t because annabeth is abusive, because she’s not, it’s about his self-esteem from his trauma and his survival guilt. He worry’s about being a bad boyfriend JUST AS MUCH as he worries about being a bad son to sally. He talks about how he feels like it’s his fault his mother is so stressed. He feels inadequate because he feels he’s let so many people down and he’s terrified to fail more people. Not to mention the fact that he has been abused before. He knows what abuse is like and would be aware if annabeth was ACTUALLY abusing him. AND SHES NOT!!! Not to mention, even if she was abusing him, he has so many people in his life who’ve been abused that’s someone would point it out. But Percy’s not this poor little baby, who’s doesn’t know any better. He’s very smart and has serious self hatred issues. It doesn’t stem from the people he loves. It comes from the people who didn’t love him.

[ramen8008]

Spiderman walking women home in the dark and they seem so comfortable like it's a common occurrence and he's not a superhero

Spiderman getting tired and refusing to stop patrol because certain streets need protection at night

Him knowing the families that live in the bad part of the city out of necessity and keeping them safe

Getting excited when he finds coupons

Giving away coupons to any family he knows needs it

Not eating anything more than a hotdog and churro the entire patrol

Tony had the habit of eating after missions and now both Spiderman and him eat together after patrol

Spiderman spends the entire patrol figuring out more "combo moves"

People aren't as comfortable with ironman as spiderman so he just tells them oddly domestic things about Tony (he does not appreciate)

Spiderman picking Tony up (under any and all circumstances I don't care why)

Combo moves 11 includes Tony just giving his blaster to Peter

Combo move 7 was just the math of where they can get the most food for the cheapest.

Iron man and Spiderman eating a churro on the rooftop after helping old lady

for no reason in particular (lies, for fic reasons) what do yall think tony and peter could get up to on patrol together? Heres my list but im actively seeking ideas

peter teasing tony for not being able to eat easily within the suit

Tony shocked and pleased at how many people know/appreciate spider-man. Similarly, being infinately amused at peters wilingness to play along with requests like "do a flip"

Peter casually pointing out the dumpsters that throw out the best food, and the places that will give him a spider-man discount. Tony being bemused that Peter didn't ask for money

Tony getting very defensive to anyone who talks to peter the wrong way/rudely. Peter pointedly reminding tony how tony himself is quite rude usually, and telling tony that he doesn't mind the rudeness

Tony having a no-combat mode on his suit, so he doesn't accidentally zap someone. He lets peter do the fighting

peter, meanwhile, keeping up a running chatter

Peter letting a petty thief get away, because he knows how stealing can be someones lifeline, and at least its from a company that can afford the loss. Peter explaining this to tony and tony staying quiet, taking it in, finally asking peter if he's stolen

[ramen8008]

Hey there!

I genuinely just wanted your favorite irondad and Spiderson fics!

More mentor to father figure than bio dad if possible! And would love if they included more ironman and spiderman on top of just Peter and Tony.

Other than that I just want your favorite ones, whether it's angst or fluff, or hurt/comfort. (Just not too much hurt I need comfort 😭)

Thanks <33

here are some of my favorites that I hope work ❤️

Papa-Paparazzi by niniblack

The top story on Buzzfeed on February 16, 2017, is “Everything We Know About Peter Parker, Who May or May Not Actually Be Peter Stark.” Turns out Tony Stark might have been hiding the fact that he has a kid all these years. We’re just as shocked as you are, the subheadline reads. It should be an easy rumor to dispel, seeing as it’s not true. But, it turns out, nothing is ever quite that simple when dealing with a celebrity scandal. - - - In which Tony is Very Famous™️ and that bleeds over into fans paying attention to the people around him as well. Which includes Peter, now. And would be fine, if they would all just stop assuming that Tony is his dad.

Villain Irondad and Hero Spiderson (series)by Winterturtler

8 part series about a villain with good heart and a hero capable of bringing the best out of people without trying or realizing it. This is their story.
