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.

Hey Wil, you probably already know about some of these, but some seem to have multiple possible responses, so why not remind you to try them again?

Alexa device Easter eggs related to Trek (and a bonus for gamers):

Beam me up! Speak Klingon Fire photon torpedoes! Damage report. Red alert! What would Scotty say? Revenge is a dish best served cold. What is your mission? State Starfleet rank and class. What would McCoy say? Do you trust Klingons? What is the prime directive? Set phasers to stun. What is the self-destruct code? Warp 10! Make it so. Engage! Set phasers to kill. Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. Live long and prosper.

Bonus - tell her the order of the buttons for the Konami code.

Disclaimer: I stumbled upon a couple and tried them. They worked, but I was using my Firestick and not my Echo because it was late and I didn't want to wake the others in my household. Some may not work anymore. Enjoy

Ha! I didn't know any of this.

There's a Star Trek trivia game (or at least there was at one time) on Alexa, and if you play it, I believe you will be entertained.

When the Normal Folk leans against things, the things press an indent into the Normal Butt.

Not this rock hard peach. That bench better watch out.

body positivity has largely failed because people started arguing for attractiveness and romantic prospects instead of respect and dignity

this is truly the best summary of what all of this SHOULD be about
