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.

Homie gonna share this

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) .

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

Can someone help me pay for lyfts to occupational therapy tomorrow and physical therapy Thursday?

i mean this from the bottom of my heart: no one is impressed by your loud ass car. actually we talked about it and we all want you dead.

*I literally admire confident and assertive women so much.

got covid for the first time :( 4 years is still a pretty good run, but that means i can’t work this week which is pretty bad bc i live paycheck to paycheck. so yknow, if anyone wants to please help me afford rent and maybe food, even pocket change helps 🙏💕

ko-fi / venmo / cashapp

still testing positive which means an additional week unable to work. ngl this blows!

thank you so much for the reblogs thus far, i know it’s obnoxious for me to reblog my own post so often but i don’t know how else to ensure visibility

update: managed to pay rent (yay!) but now i need to order groceries and only have $4, which is unfortunately not what groceries cost these days

I was watching a video of a guy explaining something and he was frequently going “uhhhhh” and the uhhhhs got louder and more gravelly and they were drowning out everything else until it was just a rhythmic “uhhhhhh… uhhhhhh… uhhhhhh…” and i was trying to make out words between them until I woke up and realized that was the sound of my roommate’s phone alarm vibrating.

Happy Black history month! Help me out if you can! 🩷

Here is what I'm working with bill wise, not to mention my copays for speech, occupational and physical therapy each week and copay for other testing appts! I got off a 2 month medical leave start of this month and while it was necessary as I kept passing out, it was a huge pay deduction that put us even further in the hole. Please help if you! We are a black lesbian and trans lesbian couple in the deep south and it is hard.

I'm also starting to make press on nails to supplement income while I work less at my job for my therapies and appts. If anyone would like to get a set please dm me! Here is some of my work

Here are my paylinks!

Thank you! 🩷

Me, plunking Stinky Bastard Man’s carrier on the counter: hi he’s here for shots and a nail trim and he’ll need to be sedated

Nurse: Are you sure? We can try-

Me: he needs to be sedated

Nurse: Well, it’ll take longer-

Me: he needs to be sedated, he will try to rip your face off

Nurse: Well we’ll try without first and we’ll let you know if we need to sedate

Me, watching her carry him away: you will need to sedate him

Nurse, coming back 10 minutes later clutching her hand: so, we will need to sedate him

Me:

A man with 3 caution stickers on his med file
