I’m not that great at tutorials but here’s a quick guideline for curly hair. It’s important to educate yourself about the different textures and types of curly hair. There are waves, ringlets, coils, and locks. And they’re all great! But they all behave differently depending on environment.

I’m going to use ringlets as an example since those are some of the kind I see people tend to struggle with. I start with the bare head with a clear definition of the hairline. Then I decide what point I want the hair to sprout out of on the head (indicated by the arrow). I draw simple soft, sort of rectangle shapes to indicate the clumps of hair and what directions they fall in.

Then I draw curved lines from the the top point of each sections and try to wrap them around. It helps to think of each section like a cylinder.

Then I draw circles at the end of the sections (and think about it like a cylinder.) Usually at this point I’ll leave that for the sketch layer and redraw it on the line art layer, while carefully drawing double lines for each section so it looks like there are slight spaces between them. I’ll draw a little connected curl at the end so that it looks decent. Finally I just go nuts and draw random curly lines because hair should be fun and sometimes chaotic.

Inspiration for the wheelchair comes from this pic that unknow-bruh showed me. Inspiration for the floral prosthetic came from @mtt-metal-crusher​. Thanks <3 <3!

I won an art scholarship!!!! Ya girl got a little bit of $$$ in her pocket! Imma post the illustrations later when I get the chance (YEET)

Still working on my portfolio, I figured out what was giving me hell for the past two months (it was me reading the coding wrong like a plebeian).

The Adventure Zone is currently my emotional support podcast. I had no idea the Mcelroy bros (Whom I had loved for many years prior cuz of MBMBAM) produced it until last December. And then I consumed all of the balance arc within a month like a starving wild animal. Currently listening to Amnesty.  I made a separate taz blog: @herbgerblin

Here’s my art vs artist meme:

A lot of people said Mtt 5C so I’m gonna draw that one for a separate ask
