Heya guys! I know this is very out of the blue, but there is something I need to talk about. I haven't been active on this account much, nor with the outsiders fandom, for a very long time now. I still hold it very close to my heart, but I'm finding myself moving on to other interests.
So, what does this mean for this account? Well in short I'm NOT quitting! Don't worry. I just will not be active alot or.. at all. Very minimal posts on here. I am going to be making a brand new account to start fresh in a new fandom. It has absolutely nothing to do with any of my mutuals, moots, friends, or the community at all. I simply want to preserve this account for only the outsiders content, and want to separate my old art from myself from now on.
My new account is going to be @ -ed at the bottom of this message, so feel free to go over to that account and follow if you want! My new account will have much more active-ness and art posts!

Reading: Uh... The Outsiders, That Was Then This is Now, and Rumble Fish. I kinda move between them. I also started Sunrise on the Reaping from The Hunger Games.
Last Song: las one I listened to is Gravedigger by Livingston, the last one that I claimed asy song to listen to on repeat is Dial Drunk by Noah Kahan and Post Malone And The Captain She Became by Murphy Law & Friends. Really like Lila and The Living Harvest by Bards of Etherina, too....
Last Film: Uh.... Fuck, it's been months since I seen a movie... Got some glimpses of a Hunger Games movie or two like a week or two ago.
Last Series: Ghost Adventures!
Sweet or Salty: I actually really like it mixed, but I suppose sweet cause it doesn't have to be, like, really really sweet.
Currently Reading: Right now Im reading The Twins of Auschwitz. Itās a true story about the twin experiments during WWII. Itās a pretty horrific book, but I think itās important to learn about uncomfortable parts of history.
Last song: Mr. Brightside by The Killers (Go Bills)
Last film: JUST finished watching Bill and Ted with my dad lolāIt was one of his favorite movies when he was a teenager, so he wanted to watch it with me. It was hokey as fuck and had Spaceballs vibes, but I like that movie a lot. Tbh itās on par with Finding Jesus/Little Panda Fighter to me lmao. I love parodies.
Last series: I donāt watch much TVāIām more of a podcast/true crime type of person. I donāt turn the TV on myself unless itās for football, so N/A
Sweet or Salty: Maybe 7 out of 10 times Iād say sweet, but I do like both. Depends what kind of weird craving I have when I want to eat. I get those a lot, lmao.
no pressure with the tags!! let me know if youāre not okay with being tagged <3 @char-char-f0x @garbage-creature @outsider06 @butters-flower-mom @stewdoesthings @veggiesforpresident @sunflower-chai @syd4reall @your-unfriendlyghost + anyone else who wants to join!
Currently reading: I think the last book I read was a play, maybe Andromaque or some Michel Tremblay.
Last song: the X-Men: First Class soundtrack while walking home from work XD
Last film: I watched X-Men: First Class with my family on New Years (it was my pick)
Last series: the LAST series I watched was Dexter, but it was a DNF
And salty or sweet? Right now I'm craving something salty, like some nachos or chips or something.
Unfortunately I don't consume a lot of media, I haven't read in a long time and I never finish the series I started. I've been more involved in writing stories and seeing plays than anything else, but that's just because I'm studying theatre lol
Hiya Sunny! This is one of the weirder things Iāve asked before so just bear with me..
If you could give me any constructive criticism on my (newer) art, what would it be? I feel that thereās something somewhat off about it, and Iām trying to get as many peopleās opinions as I can.
Btw if this is an uncomfortable ask thatās totally fine lol- feel no need to do this (my social skills online are honestly pretty crappy when it comes to asking for art advice, so I hope this isnāt a weird question of me to ask š)
youāre all good! iām more than happy to help! iām not sure how helpful im gonna be since my own art isnāt perfect by any means, and im not so great at giving constructive criticism? most of which is because i dont know what in your art is a stylistic choice and what isnāt. but iāll try my best!
one thing i think iād advise is adding solid shadows and highlights. i think they call it cel shading? bit adding solid, non blended shadows in places like clothing folds or under the chin of a character can help add dimension, i think. same with highlightsāit helps add variety, i suppose. i really like the way you do facial expressions! it feels very cozy and is nice to look at! one thing iād advise though is maybe try to broaden the expressions a little bit? i remember when i started doing digital art, one of the first things i practiced was different facial expressions. itās pretty helpful in the long run, and it can add more character overall. i really love the way you color too! itās not too bright and not too dull. itās a nice middle ground. i love your art so much though, genuinelyāitās super cute and iām so, so grateful iāve gotten to see how far youāve come!! donāt discredit yourself in any way either, youāve come so far and youāre a wonderful artist! i can give you some things thatāve helped me improve over the years too :) iām pretty sure you use ibispaint x if iām not wrong? which is perfect, i use the same program! so i think these tools should be available to you as well.
first, i have this digital 3d model app on my phoneāitās called MagicPoser, looks like this
itās pretty helpful! the only thing that sucks is a lot of it is stuck behind a paywall, so you can really only use one model at a time, and youāre limited to what poses you can program it to be in, making it hard to model 2 or more people in the same photo. but you can also manually pose the figures! so itās pretty helpful. and it also helps with shading!
something else iād advise is using reference photosāwhether itās for objects, animals, poses, reference photos are really, really helpful. something i used to do while learning was iād trace the general shapes of the reference and then iād go and replicate it on my own. itās helped me a great deal! and maybe itāll work for you too.
like i mentioned before, iāve found it pretty helpful to just practice all sorts of things. different hair textures, different facial expressions, different features. it can help distinguish your art.
but itās also really important to keep your individuality as an artist. you can make any stylistic choices you wantāitās your art! and no art is bad art except for ai āāāartāāā. so it really depends on what youāre going for. if youāre trying to mimic a certain style, try studying that style while adding your own flare to it. if youāre making something up, just experiment! itās fun to experiment. it doesnāt even gave to be serious artābut practice really does make perfect, as redundant as that sounds.
i hope this helps!! your art is amazing, by the way! <3
It may just be me.. but I feel like we didnāt get the usual huge herd of children who read the outsiders and ran to tumblr to post their newfound hyperfixation..
Might just be me though- š„² I feel like last year we got a TON! Do this year just seems.. empty lol-

please spread this if you can! iād so appreciate it. (also lmk if the links arenāt working, links have been a pain in my ass these past weeks :c)
iām gonna say this now but likeā¦i donāt get why people think we have to stop supporting the outsiders story as a whole just because the lead in the musical is a piece of shit. iāve seen way too many people being all āoh why do you still support the outsiders?? i canāt support it anymore because trevor wayne is a terrible personā and im not arguing that heās notāracists/lgbtqphobes and possible predators are shitty people and need to reap the consequences of their actions, but susie hinton didnāt do anything. the actors in the movie didnāt do anything. (canāt even argue w tom cruiseāheās a nut job but i donāt think heās actually hurt anyone. thatās literally the only example i can think of with the movie actors tho that might be ācontroversialā). why are we acting like the musical is the only media and just because thatās āruinedā by the lead actor that means everyone in the fandom needs to stop being a fan? itās really weird and self centered to be frank with you.
i guess what iām saying is you shouldnāt be telling people to stop liking the entirety of the outsiders just because one guy in one media is an asshole. you canāt dictate the fandom. i still support the story and the movie and you can too! nobodyās stopping you! the movie and the book are just as good (if not better in my opinion) than the musical. shit, i dropped the musical way back in february and im still a huge fan of the story! the book and the movie are still great! and again, again, hinton herself didnāt do anything inherently bad. neither did any of the actors in the movie as far as i know. telling people to stop supporting the whole story because of one media is kinda fucked up. you can still support the story without supporting the musical or trevor. if you still want to support them, thatās fine. if you donāt want to support them, thatās also fine. but quit trying to dictate what and how other people should like the story.
tldr; itās really stupid and immature of you to go out of your way to tell people they need to stop supporting the story of the outsiders just because of one actor in the musical. additionally, you donāt have to stop supporting the story either. read the book and watch the movie if you donāt wanna support the musical but you still wanna interact with the story. but itās really self centered and shitty of you to say we all need to stop supporting the story because of one media. the author herself didnāt do anything wrong. you can still support her without supporting the musical.
I agree! I only say to not support the BAD PEOPLE! Not the story! The story didnāt do anything wrong, and itās still amazing. Itās not SE Hintons fault, itās not the casts fault (except for those bad people), and itās not the stories fault!
hi!! in the wake of brody's exit, here is your friendly reminder that current principal ponyboy trevor wayne is confirmed to have liked several racist and transphobic instagram posts as well as posts supporting pedophilia!! there are also multiple former UF students who have spoken up (see comments on this post) about his alleged title ix (sexual assault) case and resulting suspension.
neither trevor nor the outsiders production has addressed any of these allegations and the outsiders account is actively deleting comments on the subject, meaning that they have seen the multitude of comments people have been leaving and are choosing to ignore them and continue promoting trevor.
i urge everyone to not post or engage with any content supporting trevor wayne - especially posts from official outsiders accounts. if you want to see the show, please support the tour cast or go during josh strobl and eli talley's scheduled ponyboy dates.
hey guys! as some of you may or may not know, brody grant left the outsiders recently, leaving trevor wayne to be full time ponyboy. this man has CONFIRMED SA ALLEGATIONS against him, and is a transphobe, homophobe, racist, pedophile, sexist, and a rapist. he is currently the leading role in a huge broadway musical. the cats knows about this and is doing nothing, continuing to praise him. GET THIS MAN OFF OF BROADWAY. thereās a petition you can sign to get him out, please sign: https://chng.it/b96HghWyzf
