Hot Artists Don't Gatekeep

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.

School Notes Everywhere, Because I Can’t Organize My Time Decently And The Only Moment I Can Draw Is

school notes everywhere, because i can’t organize my time decently and the only moment i can draw is during classes (without references, so every outfit that seems even remotely historical is blatantly inaccurate) (+ i think i lost veneziano’s canonical design and characterization long time ago; now i can’t help but picturing him smoking and having a pinocchio nose)

pentheus with his own head, or agave with the head of pentheus, or dionysus with the head of pentheus - at this point not even I know what this is. thankfully visual arts can be ambiguous and allow free associations! to muddy the waters even more, I leave you with this banger post by @finelythreadedsky

dear people who follow me, a heartfelt thank you for all the support you have given me this year!! i do not have a big audience, but i’m honest when i say that i am extremely grateful for how thoughtful and kind the one i have is. i read every comment and message that you leave under my paintings, and they really make me feel happy about my art and comfortable with experimenting with new subjects and styles. i feel that in this moment of my life both my art style and the concepts behind my pieces are switching to something more deliberate, and i’m excited at the prospect to explore this new creative path in 2024 and to share the results with you

may the new year bring you clarity and serenity. thank you again 💌
