Sooooo sweet, so poignant, so kind. With a visual reference to SPIRITED AWAY I found very appropriate.
Smoky Quartz - this was a 3rd pass on Smoky’s design, incorporating ideas from Danny, Paul, Raven, Lauren, Hilary, and Kat, (I had also worked with Lamar and Katie on some earlier concepts) Raven suggested small hands for Smoky, which I got really excited about. I tend to give everyone huge hands, or long hands, so I love tiny hands on Smoky!
Smoky Quartz might be my favorite Gem EVERRR.
BARBAROUS IS HERE!!

“It’s a monster. It’s unforgiving. It’s relentless,” Juno principal investigator Scott Bolton says of the planet in a video trailer for the mission (done in awesome, over-the-top Hollywood style).
The NASA Juno spacecraft reached Jupiter yesterday (July 4, 2016), and we’ll begin seeing new photos from it soon. In the mean time, I thought you might enjoy a few great photos of my favorite planet. Go here to see the official Juno mission site: x

First of all:
If you’ve never been afraid to hold hands in public, don’t you fucking dare tell me that our love is the same.
At the same time:
You support love? Bully for you. But guess fucking what? Love isn’t in danger. No one is murdering love in its places of refuge. As @superstarellecollins pointed out yesterday, homophobia isn’t just or even mostly about whom you love. It’s about gender norms: the way you walk and dress, the way you talk and look. And when you’re looking at the margins from the center, professing your love for love is significantly easier and less socially risky than professing love for people who break those rules.
And that’s what makes your allyhood cowardly half-assed bullshit. If you’re going to be an ally, be an ally to the people, not just the attractive abstract concept. Put your money where your mouth is. Don’t just love love. Love nonconforming queers who dare to walk alone as themselves in public.
Love people it’s dangerous to love. Stand in solidarity with those of us who don’t have the option of retreating to the comfort of platitudes. Love queens & bulldykes & trans people who don’t pass. Don’t buy into the HRC love-looks-the-same-for-everyone gentrified queerness. It doesn’t. It shouldn’t have to.
Love doesn’t need you to defend it. Love will be okay. But we are human and real. We are vulnerable and terribly, terrifyingly fragile. Don’t love love. Love us; because your love is the only thing that has a chance in hell of keeping us alive.
this was gonna be a tutorial and i guess it still is but if anything it’s just a really long and drawn out “essay” on drawing people with epicanthic folds. one of my biggest pet peeves is people drawing asian people exclusively with the same type of eye they’d give white people or anyone else who typically doesn’t have the fold! however i know that most people are taught with the standard white person eye (google image search for “eye” and it’ll all be pictures of white people’s eyes) so learning to draw epicanthic folds is a consciously learned thing.
therefore i bring you this, which attempts to break the mechanics of epicanthic folds down into something that’s a bit easier to digest and implement in your own art!
style can be argued i guess but it’s not that hard to stylize eyes with folds if you do proper observation and research. eyes with epicanthic folds are as diverse as eyes without so it’s not like you have to adhere to a strict model for them (although many people think that you have to) and all it takes to distinguish the two in stylized art (and even in semi/realism once you think about it) is a few lines! like i said this is a learned process but it’ll make your asian characters (and characters of other races even) a bit more interesting and believable.
