Chi Curious About The New Girl That Arrived Today. She's A Bit Shy. N_n

calling all authors!!

i have just stumbled upon the most beautiful public document i have ever laid eyes on. this also goes for anyone whose pastimes include any sort of character creation. may i present, the HOLY GRAIL:

https://www.fbiic.gov/public/2008/nov/Naming_practice_guide_UK_2006.pdf

this wonderful 88-page piece has step by step breakdowns of how names work in different cultures! i needed to know how to name a Muslim character it has already helped me SO MUCH and i’ve known about it for all of 15 minutes!! i am thoroughly amazed and i just needed to share with you guys 

apologies if this is a little bit long and rambling, but i decided to slap this comic together really quick to talk about just why i’ve gone so hard on plus-sized characters and some of the stuff i’ve been drawing and more vocal about over the past 1-2 years. it means a lot to me and it’s not going to change, so i figured i should explain Why. as i state in the comic, it’s the hill i’m dying on.

i hope y’all are on the same page and enjoy the content i put out, and that my fellow plus-sized folks out there get something meaningful and positive out of it.

I still get pissy every time I see an illustration like

because THAT! IS NOT! PROPORTIONAL! That is not an accurate diagram!!!

Here! Here is an actual image captured by the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft. THIS is what the distance between the Earth and the Moon actually looks like:

Eh. Worth a shot.

Hey folks, that time of year is upon us once again. Wow, its almost hard to believe this is going to be the third year I’m doing this. I wish you all best of luck.

I my shadow high Nicole came in the mail today, so I decided to do some monster high color comparisons.

Gray Frankie is the closest match, though is slightly lighter than the body irl (the head is an exact match for Ash, though). Goulia is close, but is also too light and a warmer tint.*

* I realized later that the Goulia head I picked had yellowed. I compaired against another I had in storage and she was an exact match for gray Frankie.

Lagoona is too pale and might work better on Ash or Heather. I don't have a not-yellowed rochelle, but her wing looked too light when compared.

Just because I have some gray boys on hand, Cam Gargoyle boy and Invisi Billy are too light. Neightan Rot is too dark. I unfortunately don't have a Slo Mo to compare.

Also the wrist/lower arm is slightly lighter than the hand and body, but I think the light angle made it look paler than irl.

To people who are desperately asking for fundz/donations on tumblr.

USE THESE REDDIT SUBS INSTEAD PLEASE FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!!!!!!!

Hate Reddit if you want, but using these subs are your best chance. People gather in these subs because they have charity to spare:

/r/Assistance /r/legaladvice /r/RandomKindness /r/Charity /r/care /r/Random_Acts_Of_Pizza /r/Food_Pantry https://www.reddit.com/r/RandomActsOfPetFood/ https://www.reddit.com/r/RandomActsOfChristmas/ https://www.reddit.com/r/almosthomeless/ https://www.reddit.com/r/homeless

/r/depression /r/familysupport /r/transitions 

I never see anyone actually getting any significant donations on tumblr and to be honest, tumblr is the worst place to ask for assistance. Use it as your last resort, it frustrates me to no end seeing people begging for help, reblogging the same post over and over, the same types of posts over and over, to no avail, when people are waiting to help you on a different part of the web  GO TO WHERE THE HELP IS. IF YOU WANT DIRECT ACTION TO WORK STOP WITH TUMBLR AND USE REDDIT.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF SATAN REBLOG THIS SO WE CAN START REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF DONATION POSTS THAT GET STUCK FLOATING AROUND THIS WEBSITE
