Somewhat Progressive

:iconnaokoelric2250:

It's official. Gay Marriage became legeal overnight in Scotland, England and Wales. Of course, Roman Catholic Church and Church of England members protested and refuse to marry. Oh well, if I were marrying a woman, I wouldn't want to be in a church that refused to accept me. *Sigh* Keep giving us a bad name (Roman Catholics).
However, Northern Ireland has refused to follow suit. It is strange, considering they are the UK Government's professional kiss-arse.
The Republic, on other hand, has not. Though there will be a referendum...in 2015. So many of your residents have and still campaign for freedom, but you need to discuss giving someone the freedom and right to marry someone who just so happens to be the same gender as them?

Notes on Character Design
I received the question pictured below at my tumblr blog.  In case it's useful to anyone here, I decided to go ahead and use this otherwise dormant journal to share the article I put together in response.
Character design and drawing are tome-sized topics and even if I had all the answers (I don't - I have a lot to learn), I'm not sure I could communicate them effectively. Here are some thoughts an ideas that might help, though.
First, some general things...
- Relax.
Let some of that anxiety go. This isn't a hard science. There's no wrong way,
The Palette Project
Bullet; BlueBullet; BlueParadigm ShiftBullet; BlueBullet; Blue


On 2014 I've imposed myself a challenge: "I should draw a doodle a day, during the whole year".The reason why I took such a challenge was because I wasn't happy with how much I created on the year before, on 2013. 
Before starting the challenge I would procrastinate instead of drawing, I would wait for some magic sort of inspiration to come in order to draw anything at all. 
That was the paradigm, the standards of my work flow. 
After concluding the 365 Days of Doodles project I had a new paradigm: I can create one black&white drawing everyday.
What I want to do now in 2015 is changing the paradigm again: I want to add color palettes to my doodles. Seven, to be more specific. :)

Weird and scary world of sexualityNot impressed by people right now. 
I've made so much Cracked After Hours fan art where I over-thought the characters, and suggested things like Daniel having anxiety disorder, Soren fearing being weak because his parents were fucked up, Michael being a sad figure who is dimly aware that he's losing his mind, or that Katie is into guys acting like dogs.
That's all fine, but when I quote the series for saying they aren't straight or cis and try to suggest what they might be, suddenly I'm "pigeonholing it" and "being weird" and "too tumblr".
Is the idea of a character not being straight or a guy not minding being called a woman really that scary? I've even suggested Daniel likes to fuck machinery and that was a-okay, but oh my god what are these scary word demisexual and genderqueer!?
The series is all about overthinking stuff. The characters overthinks pop culture, and the fans overthink the series itself. I've seen it suggested that they're all dead and in the afterlife, that it's
Comic faces and expressions tutorial!Hello guys!
The expressions tutorial I did for Wysp Learning Engine is finally on run! 
It contains of 20 separate panels, each of them are meant to show a process of how to draw faces and expressions; so if you are interested, you can try it out here:)
The learning engine allows you to try practicing on a digital canvas right there on the site, which is really helpful because you're able to see your progress instantly; and hopefully you will find the tutorial I did worth seeing!:aww:
There also are some other tutorials; such as male and female anatomy and dragons tutorials; so Wysp is definitely worth checking out, especially for young learning artists:)
Sorry I am not very active lately, but have a nice day, by the way;)

USEFUL STUFFHere's some nice useful things to check out (if you havent already) that i like to look at to improve or just watch for inspiration
FYI i learn more from watching things so most of these are gonna be video tutorials, artists talking while painting and timelapse paintings, since i prefer analyzing peoples workflow and try it out than straight tutorials that tell you what to do (not there's anything wrong with it though :P)
