To commemorate the end of My Hero Academia, I've put together all the eyes of the characters I painted since 2021 ✨

You recently reblogged my art with an ID text (Thanks a lot! 💕), describing the image, and I have doubts about that. Can you help me, please? 🥺

Since the beginning of my account, I usually describe my images through Alt Text, Tumblr's tool. But now I'm really not sure if that's enough or not. 😖

Would it be better if I described it directly in the body of the blog, as you did, and not use Tumblr's Alt Text? (genuine question)

I thought I was on the right track using Alt Text, but knowing this mode of description that uses blog text confused me as to what the best form of accessibility would be.

And sorry for the sudden question! In case you can't answer, I'll understand. 😊

(Also, English isn't my native language, so I definitely made some grammar mistakes. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.)

Anyway, thank you so much for reblogging my art. Your tags made me happy 🥺💕 Every interaction is very important to me and you were so sweet! 💞

Hi!!! You're so welcome!! First of all, it's AWESOME (caps: awesome) that you're using alt text, and my bad for not realizing you'd already put it in this really good art! I'm on mobile and can't tell, rip. I'll replace my ID with yours (and a translation hehe)!!!

To answer your question: from what I know, putting descriptions in plain text of a post (above any captions) is the most accessible kind of ID! Alt text is great for people who use screenreaders, but it can be glitchy, and most importantly, not everyone who needs IDs uses screenreaders, which means they have to go through extra steps to access the alt text. (Also, tumblr alt text displays on pc as white text against a bright purple background, which can be eyestraining and too low-contrast to read. No clue why they did that)

Looking through my files from 2024, I found some lost WIP and—

I liked it, but his nose doesn't look accurate 🤔 Maybe I'll fix that later.

In my previous post, @sassyshoe asked about the brushes I use. I thought it would be better to reply with a post instead of a comment so I could include the download links and properly credit the artists responsible for the brush sets.

And here we are!!! 🎨

(Dois de Nós) Shaky Lineart (Yuming) Sampled Brush 4 15 (orzzz) ID: 1844903 — Only in Clip Studio (Deharme) Sampled Brush 19 5 3

I'm used to painting with lots of different brushes, but these are the main ones I use.

In my small demonstration painting, I only used the four brushes indicated. However, the sets I've recommended are huge, so there are plenty of options to try out. 💞

"So manly!" 🤜🤛
