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.

This is cool as hell. Here are some resources I use. Brushes for Clip Studio: Frenden - great inking and pencil brushes Robogart - great texture & wash brushes

The only real life inking brush pen I use is the Zebra brush pen (size: super fine) .

Public domain wallpaper/rug/fabric patterns: https://www.rawpixel.com/search?page=1&path=3.sub_topic-688&sort=curated

You can also search for public domain patterns on Etsy and buy relatively cheap high resolution scanned collections.

I made this post free and publicly readable on Patreon, but I'm reposting the whole thing right here too because, well, it's a free post, and I don't want to make you click away from your dashboard if you don't need to. But also if you want to support my work, here's the link to the post.

It's a little bit about cartooning, a little bit about drawing, and then it turns into a eulogy for a chicken.

Good night, Edie. Our oldest hen, the last of our first flock, has passed on. She was a very sweet little bird.

I love this,

But also the book she grabbed (which was an excellent choice) is The Magic Fish, which is by Vietnamese-American author an artist Trung Le Nguyen, who is on here, rocking it, as @trungles

I do recommend it, if you like fairytales, very sweet gay stuff, stories of inter-generational connection, or crying.

Every time my color artist popoalu turns in a page, I get SO amped. She’s brilliant. I am always so nervous about how full color may or may not complement my line work depending on the color artist, but she makes such thoughtful choices. I’ve loved every page.

I am so excited for people to be able to read Angelica and the Bear Prince when it comes out!

I’m doing some little character designs for my Patreon webcomic side project, and the harpies made me laugh real good

Hold on there’s more
