If you’re on the fence about getting Clip Studio Paint because of the subscription I will say that you do not need a subscription if you buy version 1.0 for PC. PC can have perpetual licenses for each version, but with the perpetual license you have to buy subsequent upgrades in order to have the newest features.
But if you have the subscription you get every update with it- and if I am going to be honest CSP’s subscription model is very much worth it because of the type of product you’re getting. I don’t believe in subscription models but I will say this one is well worth the money once you get accustomed to all of the tools at your disposal.
F*ck Adobe and all of their products. Give CSP a try- once you learn the basics you will love it (probably) 🙏
(I am not being sponsored to say this, I’m just a professional illustrator who loves the program a lot.)
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.
by making art you are improving no matter what im so serious never stop making art ever . Never stop drawing that game you like or those ocs only you know or things you see or objects that appeal to you or stars or hearts or shapes. draw wonky hands and weird proportions . This is important btw
I decided to redesign Cosmia! Not that her first design wasn’t good; I just wanted to see if it could be improved! What do you think? 😄💖
(First image is the new design, Second image is her old design 😊)
hello friends it's time to get mentally ill about some elves again
Well. I see right through them. Not falling for whatever flavor of digital fascism THIS mess is- but TikTok is no longer the platform I once held dear. It's sad, but that's just how Shou and Co. decided to turn things.
I will be exclusively on tumblr and bluesky until this whole thing burns down. But Miss tumblr stays stronger than any of these other platforms so I hold onto hope as I grit my teeth.
Anyways, guess I'll post my speedpaints here and on bluesky from now on! Thinking of joining Pixelfed as well. We'll see!
Love you guys, y'all are my pookies. 💖
I love Sun Haven so much, here’s more of my fire elemental OC! ✨ His name is Ignis :)
Depending on when you started following me you may recognize this composition- because this is the third time I've drawn it LOL
Here's the old versions, I like the newest one the most because the dark flames really fit the dragon.
The font on the *thump* is better too on the newest one.
I hope you like my traumatized little man LMAO- Sorry, Xoinu. Had to do it to ya.
A remake of a two year old piece I made back in early 2022 :)
Here is the initial sketch I did for it with a WIP. Had to search my bestie’s dm’s for it LMAO
Y’raxos City - Capital city of planet Xarion
Had so much fun making this! I did not make the vehicles, though. Those are 3D models! lol
