hii sorry if you’ve already answered something like this in the past but how do you shade? ur art is always rendered so nicely and the colors are chosen so well!!

HELLOO THANK YOU! SO let’s start from the basics

when something is white or black you can change that to something else, here’s an example (for black you can just pick any colour and make it darker)

2. if you have space (in the background? idk how you call it) you can put a showy colour

3. colour picking - i tone it down / take the saturation

i dont add lighting unless there's something like glass

separation line cuz its gonna get a bit long

1.

you get your base colours ( i revived my oc for this ) (now after the basics u know where the white, black and [in this case] yellow came from)

2. i hope you know how to use layers

specific art style thing, i dont know what that is

3. if you arent the type of person to stick all the layers of your base colours then CHANGE IT!! for this tutorial

so what you are going to do is create a gray layer, all gray, fill it, the layer has to be on top of the base colour layer

u click that button, it has to look like this

4. you create another layer (above the gray one) (it has to be on the same layer mode with the second button so what you do doesnt go out from the base colors)

then you put your shading, I use red

+ i like to remark around the lineart bc yes

5.

trust me

[extra unnecessary info = a good mix is red + blue, and purple or brown are good on their own (in multiply)]

6.

you experiment with the layers, adding or deleting until you like it (i usually dont like if the shading ends up too not-colourful or too heavy) (the modes for these layers are multiply and SUBEXPONER) (I DONT KNOW THE TRANSLATION BUT ITS THIS ONE)

7. once you get what you want you merge the shading layers one per one to the base colour layer, so its all gone, you have all in one layer

8. BORDERS

you make outlines around the shading, in a colour that is more ?saturated? / showy <- you can use these same lines you are doing to just remark what you want (like the speechbubble, bad example but u get it)

in the black color i used (here its darker blue) i didnt use a lighter saturated colour like everywhere else, i used a darker blue

9. SECOND ROUND OF BORDERS

whats the difference between these and the ones from before? in this step your starter color is the base color (in the other you picked from the shading) , you dont go too far to make it outstanding

all of this it makes it more solid

10. AND LAST you colour the lineart (in the same layer mode you used before where what u do doesnt go out of the layer)

very saturated here and i randomly added orange bc reusing colors is cool (since the filling behind the hair was yellow it ended up like this)

edit: i dont like to change much from the outlines, more the inside because i like it when it looks like a sticker

thank u for reading

#art tag #adding in the tags that this is only a way of the many to colour #you can stop at any step #add more #modify anything #i guess what i keep the most is that in the shading there are outlines #also its better to have a grey-darker background colour while picking colours #bc if its white you will be like 'naah these colours are too strong' and you wont dare to try more #tutorial

Don't question what logical loops I had to leap through to make this happen, Shockwave's already doing that for y'all :)

do you think in universes where empurata exists that shockwave can remember the feeling of having a face? of remembering seeing from two eyes instead of one? does his head burn in pain as a twitch of non-existant lips spark incomplete pathways through his brain, does he miss the sensation of teeth and tongue beneath those twitching lips, heavy against the bottom of the mouth he no longer has?

Dpxdc idea 176

Danny never expected to see Tim drake aka Red Robin ever again. Especially not when he just escaped the Giw covered in wounds and a Y he’d never like to see again.

Tim never thought he’d see Danny again, according to Danny only one of him could ever exist. The same one they were both certain was from a different dimension. They had searched up the justice league and Bruce Wayne from Danny’s bedroom. A dimension Danny couldn’t leave without risk of the GIW causing a war in the realm.

He had only ever met Danny after one of his opponents managed to shove him through a natural portal. He of course managed to modify his weapons to work in the infinite realms. Mortal safe food not to easy to find. It was mere chance he had run into phantom. From there he ended up waiting in Danny’s supposed different dimension until frostbite was free to let them use the infinite map to get him back home.

He really needed to look into the GIW of that was the case. First he had to deal with getting Danny medical attention.

#dpxdc #danny and tim are friends #Tim had been in the realm like two weeks #he had gone through his emergency rations #modified his tech and batarangs #his graving hook could infact touch the ground. just like how he coated his boots #Danny jusy happened to run into him #once the realm claimed Danny. only one Danny. could exist #it’d cause issues otherwise #Danny just wasn’t expecting to see Tim #Tim did his own research #he couldn’t find anything about the Giw #amity info block #once Tim knows it’s an actual organization #well he has a whole organization to expose now #implied vivisection #implied dissection #the map brought Tim back to the exact moment he was pushed through #he didn’t tell anyone he spent weeks there #dpxdc prompt #dpxdc crossover

the disastrous life of saiki k its only a comedy anime because we see everything from kusuo's pov and the things that's happens in the episode are just a normal day for him so he sees everything like normal and even comedic

I just KNOW that if it was from someone else's pov the anime would turn into psychological horror

#JUST LOOK AT THE TIME LOOP EPISODE OMG #he treats everything as a comedy or just as an annoyance cuz is the everyday thing for him #but damn #ku wont acknowledge his problems #at least he wont acknowledge them as slmething seriously he will just call them a bother #if it wasnt a comedy ppl would also acknowledge more how weird his family is #dont get me wrong btw #i love them but you cannot convince me that kusuke's behaviour is right.... #and abt kurumi and kuniharu #you cant convice me that they dont have the fault of kusuke's behaviour #They must have taught Kusuke that it is not okay to modify your brother's power limiters so that when he removes one his darkest secret will #-be revealed to the world #COME ON GUYS #kusuke explained that in front of these two EVERYOEN SAW THAT #WHY NO ONE ACKNOWLEDGES HOW FUCKED UP IT THIS?? #these two didnt said anything #they were just surprised for two seconds but nothing else #again dont get me wrong #they have good intentions and everything but i think that theyre not fully capable of having kids #no one is ready to have kids but in this case there is a genius with psychopath tendencies and saitama w pink hair #there is a lot of things that could go wrong #even worse if they cannot pick up some fucked up things like what i mentioned before #theyre trying his best tho #(at least kurumi is) #but its not enough #saiki k #the disastrous life of saiki k #kusuo saiki #kusuke saiki #kurumi saiki

Fill for G1 - Black Cloaked Envoy on my Guardian Bingo Card!

The base pattern is taken from this daxiushan (大袖衫) pattern. To make this daxiushan (Heipaoshi's Version), I shortened the sleeves a bit, added extra length to the body, added a hood, and added the weird gauzy bits on the back. I also added some cording on the shoulders and the sides of the hood, following the design from the show as closely as I could. You'll also notice a couple decorative bands of black ribbon on the chest and at the waist, as well as a square of skightly different black fabric on the back — these are also embellishments added to follow the model in the drama.

Fabric: raw silk noil, cotton lining in the hood, a silk habotai square, silk gauze, silk ribbons, cotton cording. Entirely handsewn using waxed black linen thread.

#guardian #heipaoshi #guardianbingofest #cosplay #(ish) #fanARTifact #handmade #modified hanfu #this was my first time making anything other than a basic circle/half circle skirt and it was very fun and im very happy with the result #there are places i could for sure improve for next time (and there will be a next time - this is one of the comfiest things I've ever worn) #but for my first time drafting a pattern and sewing anything more complex than a circle skirt #i say this is a job very well done #also the hood was so scary but it was actually pretty simple to make!! it's also GIANT #i could for sure hide a big black cat in there no problem #i am also planning on making the rest of heipaoshi's outfit (belt and little hand guards and all!) #we're posting just the cloak bit and calling that square filled bc i won't have the rest finished before the end of January 😅 #but i keep getting intimidated by the closures on the yuanlingpao im making and then not sewing for months on end so. #jaysart

i’m always thinking about how dal never knew his parents and the only mother figure he had sold him into slavery as a child and then it turns out he never even had parents, he was just a failed experiment. and then his next mother figure is simply a hologram of a famous admiral who then deceives him before ‘dying’. but the real janeway cares for him so much, and defends and advocates for him in court and wants him to join her crew

#this is not anti holo janeway btw i love her it’s just. as soon as they gain a parent they immediately lose her #sometimes i think about how they modified holo janeway so they could hug her. someone get these kids some parental figures STAT #just. dal having to sleep in the engine and literally being SOLD INTO SLAVERY #after never knowing who he even was #feeling so worthless his entire life #yet finally finding his purpose among his crew on the protostar #and being taken under THE admiral janeways wing #he justtttt. does such a good job at being captain #he cares for his crew so much #bc he knows what it’s like to be forgotten and cast aside!! they all do!! #and cares for them and protects them and just loves them more than anything in the world #and he’s no longer a failed experiment but a confident leader! who’s not alone anymore! #ohhhhh i love him #star trek #star trek prodigy #dal r'el

not sure how to phrase this but something i have been ruminating on recently is that xue yang is strangely fragile. obviously he is also incredibly resilient. he survived, and continues to survive, impossible things. he has a million barriers between himself and the world, but none of this actually matters when it comes to what he feels. everything is personal to him. everything pierces straight through all that armor and goes right to his battered heart, the heart that no one else believes he has. that even he is not fully cognizant of. the world strikes and strikes and strikes and so he strikes and strikes and strikes back, even (especially) when the wound is something other people would not think worthy of retribution.

xue yang would never realize this- would be outraged at the concept of it- but the way everything, everything is something to rally a defense against is in itself a form of fragility. he does not know how to let go of things, or let them pass him by. passivity is death. so he is ruthlessly cruel and violent. he projects himself as a lunatic untouchable by anything you might possibly do to him, and on some level he even believes this. but in actuality he is one raw emotional wound. he never learned to separate himself from his emotions, much less process them. the volatility is not so much insanity as it is the constant lashing out of an animal in a trap, and the trap is the world, and the trap is himself, and he is never going to get out. and like so much else, this pain is just part of the background radiation of his life. it hardly registers. to be able to register the hurt, you would have to be able to register a time in which you were not hurt.

i feel like it is a fragility that could blossom into such tenderness, given exactly the right set of circumstances. how at the very first touch of softness in his life he fell into a domesticity from which he never recovered. how much was there, still, to be salvaged from the cruelty. on some level i am always thinking about the little apple bunnies. about the meal for daozhang and the straw in a-qing's bed.

it was too little, too late. it shattered like glass when the world intruded back in. but the tenderness was there. no one, least of all xue yang, knows what might have happened had it been unearthed in him any sooner.

#he is easy to hurt. this is a fact. it is also anathema to his own self conception as well as the model of him in anyone elses minds. #xue yang #yi city #mdzs #aphelion.txt #xy #Contact is crisis; every touch is a modified blow #<- xycore anne carson quote. if you even care #meta #i guess? idk #it is always character analysis hour in my head #with a disclaimer that whether or not someone experiences empathy is NOT correlated to their morality #i dont think its necessarily that xy is incapable of empathy it's that any empathy that might exist in him is deeply deeply repressed #bc he views it as a death warrant. he (at every moment in his head and really quite often in reality) is on trial for his life #and it would be suicidal to give a shit about anyone who is not him. #especially since he knows- down to his bones- that no one is ever going to give a shit about him EXCEPT FOR him #the one chance he ever got to escape this cycle of brutality came with an expiration date built in by consequence of his past atrocities #and he only first started to comprehend anything about his own emotions after it was all already irrevocably fucked #in canon he is doomed. in fandom i am always picking him up and putting him somewhere kinder #shakes you by the shoulders do you understand what he does to me. do you. do you #if you tell me im excusing his crimes i will kill you w my lazer beam. #this isnt ABOUT THAT. this is ME BEING UNHINGED ABT HIS PSYCHOLOGY in a moral vaccuum. #i'm not saying 'hes sensitive uwu' but like i kind of am. unfortunately it mostly just motivates him to murder people #OH and when i connect the fragility to the tenderness i dont mean that i believe hes like. secretly soft #i mean that being as he is so deeply impacted by people's slights against him. he is just as deeply impacted by people's kindnesses #and he's not incapable of reciprocating it. he is INCREDIBLY fucking bad at it. but not incapable #ok i have to post this before i feel compelled to ramble any longer in the tags. jesus #got consumed by my a-yang feelings on a sunday morning sorry #not sure why i worded it as 'continues to survive' other than a constant subconscious denial that xue yang is dead

i made some straps for my crutch!

i originally got an open cuff crutch because i was worried about my arm being too big, i wear a lot of bulky sweaters as well so i was worried it wouldnt fit over that as well. i very quickly found out how inconvenient it is to try to use that arm with it. i drilled a hole in both sides of the cuff a small binder ring inside, that way i can change out the straps! the two ive made so far are a crocheted one and a beaded one, of course both green :-) [smiley face emoticon with nose]

[id: four photos of danny’s right arm in their open cuff forearm crutch that has been modified to have a strap across the open part of the cuff. they are pale, wearing a gray shirt, and have two tattoos on their arm of joey jordison’s mask and the danger days spider. in the first two photos they are only visible from the shoulder to wrist. the first photo shows a thin brown corded strap with green stone beads on it, the second photo shows a green crocheted strap in a scalloped pattern. the third photo shows their arm outstretched to demonstrate the crocheted strap holding up the crutch. the fourth photo is a close up of the crutch showing the drilled hole where the binder ring is inside, it is attached to the crocheted strap. /end id]

I have no patience so here is an update on the reference sheet for Nela. Still a fair bit to go.

All images are fairly high quality so please open them to see the details!

i am actually genuinely so mad about how larian is going about things, on a professional level. i work as a software dev - when i put something out that is meant to be public ready, i make as sure are possible that there are no bugs. if there are any, i fix that asap, before adding anything on top of it bc 1) it disturbs user experience and 2) adding smth on top of a bugged foundation means at best u reproduce the bug, at worst U MAKE IT WORSE and then u have to untangle that

youd think this logic would go double for smth as complex as a video game but apparently its more important to [checks notes] make lae'zel nicer????

like im aware theyre... allegedly, considering what i hear of the state of the game post patch 6.0... fixing bugs. but by modifying/adding other things at the same time theyre actually creating or worsening more bugs than theyre fixing. and its. fucking stupid. and it makes me mad because its such basic logic that they're completely ignoring

#larian critical #bg3 #bg3 critical #im mad for other reasons too i.e. them modifying existing characterization and content which i dont think they should do on a public version #also the ongoing and constant neglect of wyll and his lack of content. the half assed/rushed stuff thaths obvious when playing (halsin as a #companion is so lacking for example). the fact that minthara is constantly broken. #this is. honestly shameful imo. i used to think okay they need time to work on all this. so i gave them time. and they gave us worse #i bought the game so ill give it a go again when theyre done actively shitting it up but if i was looking now i would not buy it tbh #im so boggled. there are some very clear priorities and theyre just... not really doing anything about them. why

punk spot and goth sarah stuff 🫰

i also made playlists of the kind of music i think they'd listen to :') you can listen to spot's here. most tracks fall under the hardcore subgenre, but there's also a good amount of ska and pop. generally has a chaotic, garage, and/or dated kind of sound, really wanted the kind of stuff that scratches my brain in a specific, rough way

there's also sarah's playlist, which i'm less confident about because i'm wayyy more immersed in punk subculture and music. but. i tried! some gothic rock, mostly punkabilly and gothabilly. i feel like she'd be into music that has that campy slasher feel, so that's the overall mood i was gunning for

#newsies #92sies #uksies #sarah jacobs #spot conlon #drawings #confession idk anything about uksies this is purely based on vibes bcuz the concept of a pinoy nonbinary spot has charmed me #anyways more nerdy stuff ahead i am so sorry >>> #i heart thinking about what characters would be like if they were punk it is so fun #i view sarah as punk usually so it's interesting to compare & contrast her and spot #like sarah i personally cant see modifying her hair or her body much. she'd mostly stick to diying clothes and jewelry #so while she IS punk she's not the kind of punk that most people auto think of #but spot feels like someone who'd /really/ want to lean into all the trappings of punk. being intimidating AND cool #so they're spiky all over. hair piercings jacket are sharp #sarah's battle jacket is a comfortable corduroy material. it's colorful and has random scraps of fabric bcuz the goal is #to make the original jacket last as long as possible #whereas spot's has more inflammatory patches and is strictly black and white and has the sleeves cut off #and has non fabric stuff attached like the spikes and studs and also soda can tabs #because they also strike me as someone who collects random odds and ends. hence the bottle caps repurposed as pins #i also wanted to play around with adding chains and safety pins onto their jacket but alas #ultimately had to prioritize readability #same thing w sarah i wanted to give her layered necklaces and more maximalist elements to her outfit but it ended up muddying everything up #anyways. im insane but specificity is very important to me for punk stuff just because i think #'punk versions of xyz' tend to water down what punk actually is by prioritizing the aesthetics of rebellion without being specific #in What they are rebelling against. which is why these headcanons lack inflammatory political ideas and punk bands #or like they'll just have the circle A sign and it's like ok but do you know what anarchism is and what anarchist praxis looks like #also spot would not be an anarchist tbh they read as more of a commie #they are not doing nonhierarchical based organizing iykyk

The Martian (2015) really is a shockingly faithful adaptation of the source material, as big-budget Hollywood movies go.

Like, Andy Weir's screenwriter credit isn't a courtesy credit. They didn't just follow the story beats -- an insanely high percentage of the dialogue is word-for-word from the book.

Which is to say: Lord & Miller, if you actually make the Project Hail Mary movIe, you have literally no excuse if you fuck it up. Ridley Scott managed to do it right, for god's sake.

#there are a few of the usual 'make it more hollywood' changes #but for the most part anything they changed was in service of turning a 350-page book into a 2.5 hour movie #ie edited for length or modified slightly in presentation to better suit the visual medium #the martian
