Takamine and Kazakami being unwitting foils of each other is just soooo good. And the build up to it was alos crazy smazing considering that it's not really....as hyped up as it could be? They're rivals, they're friends, they're classmates, they butt heads, so on. One of them works so hard. The other seems to get everything easily. One folds under pressure but manages to make everything count. The other has had constant pressure over his life and thus has lost confidence in having life count at all. And I just love how subtle their relationship is, too. How even though Kazakami gives Takamine a migraine, she still does believe in him and doesn't let herself be weighed down by either jealousy or pity. It's camaraderie...and that's all it needs to be. Takamine in some ways valued the pressure Kazakami's existence gave her. Kazakami found a break from his pressures in his high school friendships, Takamine included. And I just think they're neat.

Are there any specific videos you recommend for someone who wants to learn how to draw?
I honestly donβt really recommend any videos at all. At least not the kind Iβm guessing youβre asking about. I canβt think of any videos that have helped me beyond some reels that showed how some of procreateβs hidden advanced tools work.. The majority of art tutorials online are repeating stuff by the masters but said through a telephone game of hundreds of people. Iβve yet to find one that didnβt feel contrived or is showing a very individualized stylistic technique that wouldnβt work for everyone
As an example for why I donβt like video tutorials: I recently watched a color theory tutorial on youtube because it had a kinda weird thumbnail, and it turns out that the artist had a very intense vendetta against the color green. So the whole video felt like a waste of time because I canβt trust a color theory lesson from someone who 1) hates and tries to avoid an entire color 2) relies on the curve tool and adjusting until it βlooks rightβ which is not a good way to learn colors. I could clock that because Iβve been drawing for a long time but the majority of the comments from beginner-intermediate artists took it as gospel, unfortunately. So I heavily caution stuff like that..
If you learn best from video/audio, hereβs some video lectures that may bore you to death as soon as you see the time stamps but hey itβs worth it if youβre dedicated. Should note that you should copy everything, not just idly watch it
Some good books are Anatomy for Sculptors and Color and Light/other books by James Gurney. Here are some free PDFs for Andrew Loomis (best for beginners is βfun with a pencilβ). Copy the drawings, not just idly read it. Visual art is an extremely practice-intensive field
Something that helped me that I donβt often see get mentioned is being able to do formal analysis, which is actually an art history thing, but helps you be able to understand various artistic jargon and helps with the ability to analyze other peopleβs works
But hereβs an alternate βhow aucatgirl learned to draw, very slowly but with minimal burnout and having a ton of fun with itβ
1) Figure out what you want to draw first on a very base level and get excited about improving
My first sketchbook is full of very bad drawings of various female characters I liked at the time because thatβs what I wanted to draw (and still do). I wasnβt trying to make them good but as I kept going I discovered my biggest limitations (drawing full bodies, hands, posing, while I didnβt struggle as much at expressions) and thatβs when I started the whole learning process
1B) Keep old art so you have a baseline
Itβs hard to know how good youβve gotten if youβre throwing away old stuff. I frequently do redraws of old work for a confidence boost
2) Draw from life and draw the cubes and circles and cylinders (you can make it fun however you need)
The βboringβ part where you get a CHEAP sketchbook or even those cheaper spiral notebooks (this is so you donβt get a sense of guilt about βruiningβ it) and a CHEAP pencil and start drawing stuff around you. And I donβt mean just pretty trees and passerby and stuff, I mean, also draw cabinets, power lines, trash bags on the side of the road, laundry basket, trinkets, coffee machines, sinks.. The most vital skill to drawing is the ability to draw from observation, because that allows you draw basically anything from a reference
And then taking advantage of websites like line of action for figure challenges. You donβt have to spend like, hours upon hours on any of this. I learned to get better at posing this way, and more recently how to draw various animals by spending about 15 minutes a day on line of action. It goes by super fast
Reward yourself by drawing something self indulgent after. All practice no play makes beginner artist a dull boy
3) Follow a ton of artists that inspire you and that you want to mimic to a degree, privately study and trace/copy your favorites
βYour art styleβ is an amalgamation of styles that you like and that you stole various elements from and that naturally just takes time and also ideally never stops evolving. People get weird and stingy about tracing/copying but as long as you donβt post it itβs fine lol. Copying the art of masters is literally how artists learned prior to the advent of the internet so like. Just do it who gaf!!
A fun way to do this is to do manga colorings of styles you like, but specifically, tracing over the line art to make your own new line art rather than just getting rid of the white background. This doubles as coloring practice
4) The basics of color theory are not actually that daunting and are necessary to know no matter how many people online whine about not understanding it (I used to be this person, itβs not that bad)
Fun way to practice colors: color palette challenges!! It forces you to think about colors in terms of their values as well as balancing them out compositionally
5) Basics of composition
ALL visual artists (including graphic designers, photographers) have seen some variation of this image and unfortunately you gotta know it at least on a basic level
Fun way to learn it: go onto digital museum archives like the Met and match old paintings to different types of composition so you can see how it looks in action, or even do it with various digital artists online (preferably people with more advanced art)
6) Perspective (specifically foreshortening) is relatively advanced so itβs fine if it takes time to grasp it
Iβm actually not very good at it still. Especially when it comes time to stylizing, because perspective itself is often stylized.. learn one-point, then two-point, etc. this is where getting or having a ruler is handy
was thinking about how aang is constantly thrown off by how much katara wants to touch him in book 1, and how this could mean itβs a cultural thing not a personal thing but also both
he doesnβt start hugging her back till the end of book 1 and even in book 2 heβs still thrown off by her cheek kisses. every time she initiates a new type of physical interaction, he has a confused or surprised reaction. the one time he initiates a hug is in the serpentβs pass after he initially rejected kataraβs hug from earlier. in book 3, he initiates more physical interactions but it still doesnβt add up to the amount of times katara has in total. outside of katara, the only other time i can think of him reaching out to to touch someone is toph when he held her hand because she was feeling vulnerable.
even when i think of the flashbacks, i donβt really recall him getting a hug from gyatso or anyone. obviously the circumstances in the flashbacks are a bit tense but in general, the air nomads donβt seem to be that big on physical affection among friends or even pupils and teachers. gyatso gives him a pat on the head and that seems to be pretty much it when it comes to physical contact. the only being he hugs freely and consistently is appa π
anyway itβs just interesting to me to think of aang coming from a community of free-spirited monks and nuns who were not keen on too much touching and affection, being with katara, who comes from a culture or at least a family that hug and embrace each other whenever they feel like it. katara gets a hug from gran-gran, she hugs sokkaβs annoying ass sometimes and he gives her a kiss on the cheek when heβs feeling particularly affectionate even if she gets the ick. plus, the water tribe is the only culture where the official greeting between people meeting for the first time includes physical contact.
individually, katara initiates platonic physical interactions with several characters to suggest that this is also just a part of her personality even if aang is definitely the one she likes to be affectionate with the most, letβs be clear!
anyway this is me once again cornplating about a certain monk and his physically affectionate girlfriend whoβs also his girl best friend that likes to hug him, touch his face, kiss his cheek, etc.

To anyone who thinks Aang choosing Katara over the avatar state was bad writing: in a world where spirits are real and the universe can show people the past & future, I think Aang seeing the vision of Katara being locked in the Crystal Catacombs was the universe telling him it wanted him to save her and choose love over power. And when he ultimately chose to let go of Katara because he thought it was the only way, he was immediately punished. Aang was always destined to go on this journey.
taang is such an elite fucking ship. i'm just remembering the moment in "The Chase" when everyone was at each other's throats, toph didn't give a fuck until Aang sided against her (tbf only side aang was on was appa's lmfao). she was trading barbs with katara rapid fire but as soon as aang got curt with her she literally paused bc she was so hurt and then LEFT. she left the group. because aang was the only one who mattered at that point. he was the one she left her parents for, if he was annoyed with her, then she truly wasn't welcome. That's how much his opinion mattered to her.
Aang is Toph's first and most precious friend. π₯Ίπ₯Ίπ₯Ί

A cold mist blew through the streets of the town the night they gunned young Benson down. He'd laid with a woman who wasn't his wife and her husband decided he'd pay with his life. By the dark of the night and the light of the moon, into the river went poor Benson Boone.
The pearl-clutching half of the jjk fanbase are so funny to me cuz like... you got Suguru, who's putting the concentrated wretchedness of humanity (large, invasive) into his actual mouth and choking it down. Then you got yuta, who makes out with a giant cockroach. And Yuji, whose mother is a man possessing a dead woman's body. Rape allegory, monsterfucking, mpreg, this show is fuckin. Sexy. And not in a jiggly boobs way (though it has that too, hi choso). It's got subtlety. Creativity. For sophisticated perverts (like me). It draws on niche kinks that toe the line between eroticism and horror. But you've got kids out here like omg student/teacher?? sweetheart maybe you should go watch the marvel movies or something. This one's lost on you.
