I mean I know a certain level of projection on fictional characters and situations is inevitable and even healthy, but sometimes you got to step back into the real world to remind yourself that Character X is not your shitty parent/abusive ex/asshole boss/bully from high school, and that people who like Character X are not personally victimizing you.

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.

since you think Regulus believes in transphobic conspiracy theories now, I’m assuming you retract your previous posts about trans masc Regulus? Or is Regulus like Blair White?

I am slightly confused because I don't remember making any posts about trans Regulus??? at least not recently but maybe I have in the past! Anyway, it is not important because YES I am all for trans Regulus, but he is just very insufferable about it!!!! Does not believe that you can be non-binary and claims that singular they is "ungrammatical" . Thinks that there is a correct way to be trans and that way is to conform to gender norms and try to appear "as cis" as possible. Thinks that access to hrt needs to be gatekept. Also throws a huge tantrum because his big brother wears makeup and puts on a skirt because that is "confusing to children" and "giving bad reputation to lgbt people". In short he hates himself and doesn't think that anyone else should experience queer joy either. <3

Bro, you ok? Bro, humans aren’t separate from the ecosystems around us. We’re a part of them, bro. Bro, we’re never going to have absolutely zero effect on ecosystems, because we live here, bro. Bro, I never said it had to be a bad effect. We don’t have to immediately be perfect either, bro, sometimes doing what you can is what you can, and its way better than nothing. Bro what do you mean humans are a plague. You’re starting to sound a bit like an ecofascist, bro… Bro?

give me walburga who really thought she was gentle parenting. that she was breaking the cycle of abuse because she doesnt force them into engagements with their cousins when theyre six, and she spends time with them when theyre young instead of letting the nannies raise them until theyre ready for polite company, and she buys them toys and ice cream, and she keeps orion away from the kids when hes angry, who tries to give sirius a better childhood than she had. whos angry at sirius for leaving because why cant he just be grateful, why cant he understand how much better he had it!!

[vajazzly]

I hate it when Sirius is made out to be dainty overdramatic vain or dumb. But also he is a princess.

Headcanoning characters as POC is amazing but changing what we do know about their canon appearance, height, intelligence, temperament, ect, so they can buffer, angrier/broodier/taller, than their tiny white feminine boyfriend is weird.
