Every Sunday night I write a to-do list for the coming week, and every week I get through about half of the tasks on it, if I’m lucky.
In the last couple of months I’ve started to make the list a bit more realistic on Monday morning, by adding symbols which indicate the likelihood I’ll get to that task.
This is my system, and it’s genuinely increased my productivity.

Day 27 watch out I’m coming!
why you should make a webcomic and why you can make a webcomic
why should you make a webcomic?
- it’s regular drawing practice
- you get to draw and develop the universe your OCs live in
- you could draw your OCs making out with context
- see number 3
how can you make a webcomic?
- make a new tumblr
- install this theme https://www.tumblr.com/theme/37061
- post comics as you would on any other tumblr they show up on their own webcomic site
what if nobody sees my webcomic 😦
- too bad you got to draw your OCs making out and nobody can appreciate your artistic genius obviously the world is not ready for this webcomic genius
It also might be good for an artistic resume or portfolio.
Welp, guess that settles it. I need to start a webcomic.
reblogging this to add while the original link to the theme in this post is inactive, you can find the newest webcomic theme here
I might need this some day
I need to print this out and stick it on my wall.
Be greater than average. —the quote on my favorite NASA t-shirt;
just a comparison between Suigimori’s official character art from Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to the originals. The redesigns are pretty great in my opinion
This could sincerely be used in a cartooning class with the intent of teaching the importance of action lines and expressive characters.
if you tell me that even professional artists can’t improve and still want to improve and work their hardest to improve then i’m calling bs
Two Teddy Bears, Many Years Later
“Real isn’t how you are made,’ said the Skin Horse. ‘It’s a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real.’
‘Does it hurt?’ asked the Rabbit.
‘Sometimes,’ said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. ‘When you are Real you don’t mind being hurt.’
‘Does it happen all at once, like being wound up,’ he asked, ‘or bit by bit?’
‘It doesn’t happen all at once,’ said the Skin Horse. ‘You become. It takes a long time. That’s why it doesn’t happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all, because once you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.”

“There’s a lot to be said for making people laugh. Did you know that that’s all some people have? It isn’t much, but it’s better than nothing in this cockeyed caravan.”
I am not in wheel chair but I get a bad feel when I see a character in one being written as an innocent pure kind hearted angel who can do no wrong, like they are not given permission to be human like those who aren’t, by human I mean neither white or black but a mix, it’s a very common troupe in japanese media, do you have any opinion?
The depiction of disabled people either being innocent untouchable angels or evil villains is dehumanizing and objectifying.
One example is that I was speaking to a guy who said something offensive and when I pointed that out he got very angry, telling me that I had to be nice because people in wheelchairs were always nice. When I asked him where he got that assumption from he admitted that it was from TV and movies.
He was acting out a trope in which I either had to be nice and be one of those good people in wheelchairs or I was not allowed to exist because one of those bad people in wheelchairs always gets murdered by the hero.
Trying to find something to motivate myself and I found this little line from Van Gogh
Some people draw nice, clean art in their sketchbooks. Some people work best when they’re churning out page after page of crap until one nice drawing emerges. One style may be more photogenic but neither is better than the other. The only thing holding you back is the idea that what you put in a sketchbook SHOULD look a certain way, when in reality sketchbooks exist so you can scribble, mess around with new things, and make art that’s less than your best! If you don’t want to “ruin” a nice sketchbook than just grab a stack of printer paper. Thank u for reading. Do your best kids. Go make some ugly sketchbooks
