THAT'S SO ILLEGAL-
On the topic of asking you how to draw things we’re struggling with… how do you handle arms? Specifically arms and their proper connections to the body.
I’ve gotten into this habit of drawing only headshots (shoulders included) and when i try to extend it into an actual full body, I can never do the arms.
Everything else is fine, but the arms are just… no. They stayed pinned to the sides, or conveniently nonexistent, as I don’t know how to draw them proportioned properly otherwise.
I will try to explain but you can definitely find better advice elsewhere
I think first, having a solid understanding of what's going on underneath is important, here's some of the bones/muscles that are the most relevant. Knowing what the understructure looks like and how it all connects will help you figure out the surface stuff
When you move your arm, all those muscles and bones move too, when the arm goes up, it affects your clavicle, your scapula, your pecs, etc. So you're not just moving an arm, you have to think about how the shoulder/neck/chest will go along with it
same kind of deal with the back view
proportion-wise uhhh arms go down to about mid thigh and a persons wingspan is around the same width as their height head to toe
i gave your perfectionist character a timeloop ability i hope you wont mind
please god stop talking about diets and weight loss in front of kids. especially if those kids are girls. and especially if you’re someone those kids look up to. but really just stop talking about about diets and weight loss when children are in earshot at all. I promise you you’re doing far more harm than good.

I'm not really an MHA guy, most of my exposure to it is from fanfic, but would I be right in assuming its setting is one of those things where the status quo is genuinely fucked, but everyone who's against it or up for changing it is either painted as wrong or is conveniently over-the-top evil?
With MHA it’s weird. On one hand you have people constantly calling out the status quo and being portrayed as sympathetic/right. Izuku, Class 1-A, and the future heroes are constantly portrayed as learning how to be better than the past heroes. You got the LoV, who despite being mass murderers, are given sympathetic backstories that showcase the suffering caused by the status quo. You also got Endeavor, who understands that he’s shitty and plans on retiring once he’s no longer needed in the war against the LoV. You also have Stain, a guy whose message is that there are a lot of fake heroes, and his message is one that is framed as being correct and one that sticks around throughout the series, even when he’s defeated.
On the other hand, Hori will outright contradict his own messages. Katsuki, a direct benefactor of the status quo, is coddled by the narrative, never meaningfully called out, constantly praised, and gets everything handed to him on a silver platter. Endeavor’s abuse is brushed aside by everyone. Now someone might mention that it’s because Dabi’s murdering people and they need Endeavor to stop him and the LoV, so they’re just tolerating him for now. This would be true and perfectly valid, if not for the fact that Hori has actual characters not care about any of the revelations. You have Inasa admit to Dabi’s face that he doesn’t care about what Endeavor did and you have Endeavor’s sidekicks ignore the allegations just because he does his job well.
Then there’s the fact that anyone with valid criticisms about the status quo and how things are done are immediately demonized. When people were booing Katsuki for savagely wailing on Ochako rather than ending the fight quickly (something he could’ve easily done if not for the fact he thought Izuku gave her a strategy), Hori has Shota talk to them as if they were misogynistic pigs. When the journalists rightfully point out Katsuki’s horrible attitude and U.A’s incompetence, Hori frames them as being vultures and not really understanding Katsuki (Shota literally says that Katsuki deserves to be a hero cause he works hard). Endeavor’s critics are treated as nuisances rather than people who understandably don’t want an abuser to be the new #1 hero. The angry mob that forms as Izuku’s being brought back to U.A is framed as horrible people willing to let a kid die. While it’s true that they were willing to let Izuku die, they literally saw no other option as the heroes have failed them numerous times. The last war was a disaster even though they managed to drive the villains away and both Endeavor and the HPSC, two centerpieces of hero society, were exposed for their crimes. Finally, there’s the fact that the LoV, the biggest source of criticism about heroes, are mass murderers for absolutely no reason, which limits how effective their message is to the audience. Even Stain falls for this trap cause he kills heroes that aren’t All Might indiscriminately, even good heroes like Tensei, a hero who is framed by the narrative as a charitable and true hero.
Ultimately, I think Hori’s genuinely trying to criticize the status quo, but the problem is he doesn’t quite understand how to do so and he lacks the writing skills to do so. Hori does this thing where he creates all the moving pieces but is afraid to make them come together because of his inexperience and because he’s too afraid to criticize his favorite characters too harshly, characters who benefit from the status quo.
Lol that kinda turned into a rant but hopefully it answered your question 😂
These are my kids
I have been seeing posts about how people who have been bullied project onto Midoriya and don’t accept Bakugou’s apology need to get over themselves and how sad it is they can’t move on. And…I don’t know, it just strikes me as insensitive and tasteless to just tell people to get over their trauma, like they can wash their hands clean of it simply. I was not bullied in school, but I have heard stories about how for some the bullying got so bad, they take their lives.
And to see people say, “The apology was to Midoriya, not to you, so just get over yourself”, when it can get to such degrees to a person makes me trust anything a Bakugou Stan says less and less. Trauma is trauma in my eyes, and some people can get over it, good for them, some can’t. So it’s okay to shit on their feelings? It’s like telling a victim of an abusive parent to get over it. Or an abusive relationship to get over it. Or a r*** victim to get over it.
Am I being overly sensitive? I just don’t trust individuals who tell strangers they have no idea what people went through how to live their lives as if it were that simple. If people are allowed to relate to Bakugou because of the one of two “positive traits” they personally see in him, then why aren’t people who were tormented and bullied like Izuku not able to relate to him and find the shit apology lackluster?
To me, this is what makes some Bakugou stans shitty people.
Like whichever character you want, I don't care. But how the fuck are you gonna get mad that people who were bullied hate his character? That's like telling victims of SA pr trafficking that they can't hate Endeavor. I was called the r-slur once for bringing up that out of everyone, victims of bullying have the right to hate on Bakugou's character.
Attacking real people- VICTIMS AT THAT- to defend a fictional piece of shit privileged bully is not what we should be striving for.
Izuku accepting/forgiving Bakugou is always the excuse Bakugou stans give. God forbid you bring up Izuku's lack of agency regarding Bakugou throughout the story. But even so, Izuku's a fictional character, one that's been proven to be biased and unable to advocate for himself. He's an unreliable narrator so him accepting Bakugou doesn't mean anything to me. Remember, he also defended Endeavor against Dabi.
I love him, but his POV is skewed when it comes to things like this.
No, you're not being overly sensitive. Attacking real people for not liking your favorite character (who reminds them of their trauma) is shitty
Ao3 does not need an algorithm, you're just lazy
Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE
Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted
Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative
Purity culture is ruining fan culture and you all are fucking annoying
