My name is irrelevant.

General searching (like Wikipedia) is usually okayish, but for more in-depth and personal information, you should look for websites focused on that condition (ideally ran by people with that condition), and people talking about their experience with that condition (like interviews). You can also find posts and blogs on here talking about that disability and what they want to see in representation, like the blog CrippleCharacters :)

I really wanted to draw some happy people with facial differences for this week.

if you tag this as "tw scars" or some other "body horror" I'm killing you btw.

Jules Premus (@iguanadonis) was kind enough to design me a series of little people in order to showcase adapted clothing for those with dwarfism! He is an incredibly talented visual artist, and I look forward to reading his upcoming graphic novel Rivets upon release! Please go check him out!

I was also able to feature Cryptid's (it/it's) (@recovering-vamp) Little character Jin (she/he/it)!! I love how it captures fat characters and adore Jin's style so much! It offers commissions here!

"Tutorial" on how to "draw" a blind OC.

My kofi

Boring tired disclaimer: Keep in mind that this is an introductory "drawing" "tutorial" and has some generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. Which happens to be true for everything in general. Links below so that you can research and do a nuance. Ones that were directly mentioned are bolded.

Tutorial for drawing characters with Down syndrome.

DISCLAIMER: Please keep in mind that this is an introductory drawing tutorial and has some generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. It's more of an overview of features that are common in people with Down syndrome, not meaning to imply that every person with DS has all of them 👍 thanks.

If you draw any characters using this feel free to tag me.

Overview of some topics when it comes to drawing characters who are burn survivors.

DISCLAIMER. Please keep in mind that this is an introductory overview for drawing some burn scars and has a lot of generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. I'm calling this introductory because I hope to get people to actually do their own research before drawing disabled & visibly different characters, rather than just making stuff up. Think of it as a starting point and take it with a grain of salt (especially if you have a very different art style from mine).

Talking about research and learning... don't make your burn survivor characters evil. Burn survivors are normal people and don't deserve to be constantly portrayed in such a way.

Edit: How are people seeing this post where I specifically talk about burn survivors being normal, real people, and still tag this as "TW body horror"? Not a single one of these drawings or pictures is a fresh injury. All of them are healed. How the hell would you feel if someone tagged a photo of you as "trigger warning: gore"?

Tutorial on drawing characters/OCs who have some sort of facial paralysis. It doesn't cover all possible variants because I was using mirror as my main reference lawl

Tutorial for drawing characters with cleft lip! Sorry that it's mostly unilateral-centric but it makes up the vast majority of resources and photos. Still tried to get tips for drawing bilateral clefts in though.

Visual example of some random gijinkas I made from various things to show what you can do instead of vitiligo when making a gijinka with patterns :)

Tattoos. Makeup, Clothes, and jewelry/accessories are good alternative to *shivers* tiger striped vitiligo or cow print vitiligo

"Tutorial" on how to draw an OC with dwarfism (well, some of it).

Boring tired disclaimer: Keep in mind that this is an introductory "drawing" "tutorial" and has some generalizations in it, so not every “X is Z” statement will be true for Actual People. Which happens to be true for everything in general.

You are heavily encouraged to do your own research because this does not contain everything you should know before making a character with any type of dwarfism.
