So You Want to Art?
All of the tutorials, references, artwork, etc. featured here were not created by me. This is just an area for people to find anything related to helping others improve their art skills.
Please do not hesitate to submit or notify me of resources and tutorials for anything relating to art you can imagine will help people in their improvement of art. Since art is such a subjective and vague term, this can mean anything from writing to cosplay to cooking to even home construction.

All these lovely ladies weigh 154lbs. We all carry weight differently, don’t live your life by an outdated chart. Find a number that looks and feels good.

TAKE A GOOD LOOK. WEIGHT COMES IN DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES.

This is actually a really lovely artistic reference as well. Also HOLY SHIT NEW REBLOG SYSTEM??? dang.

Doing this makes me feel really vulnerable because I am NOT capable of making good tutorials and there are much better ones out there, but I’ve been asked by a few people to make one. Here you go. XD

Next part (if I feel like making it) would be painting, and coloring, because I can actually do that sometimes. xD

“loong” is supposed to be “looking.” I dont know how I managed to make that typo and I don’t know how I managed not to fix it. Im sorry. xD

Like my art? Please consider a commission, or check out my webcomic!

Firstly, I know this one’s slightly preachy, but I felt it needed to be said. 

The examples I chose were just off the top of my head. There’s many, many more.

I know why animators do what they do. It saves time and money to create a cast of characters with the same body type. However, one must consider the cost of convenience. In the end, it comes down to a choice. We’re spending something in order to make our media: the question is, what would we rather sacrifice? Time and money, or diversity and realism? One could even argue that these sacrifices will have a greater impact on our culture than we realize.
