i played the ps2 titles. watching the kingdom hearts 3 trailer is like. who the fuck are all of you. i recognize like 5 ppl.

this is what our discord is like all the time

yeah, sure. I get the feeling disappointed with them with all this marketing which alienates women and lgbt+ folk, cause even if they reconsider their strategy with the sarah trailer… it still took them this long to do so. I’ve been reading a bunch of stuff (most of it is based on people’s opinion of how the characters reacted to flirting on a hands on or the many romance leaks, so be prepared for this to not be 100 per cent accurate). The romances seem to be: 

Cora: only an option for scott. (my deepest sigh ever)

liam: only an option for sara.

jaal: an option for both.

vetra: an option for both. 

gil brodie (a tempest engineer): only an option for scott.

suvi anwar (a tempest scientist): only an option for sara. 

Thank you dude! In truth when it comes to varying body types and adding more diversity to your designs, it all goes back to practice!

Resources I’ve used before and still do to try and warm up + take from other artists to see how they’ve handled body types before arrrrree:

pixelovely.com - They have stuff for nude and clothes models of all body sizes, hands and feet, animals, and even expressions!! Which is awesome!

Character Design Interviews - I always go back to this list when I feel like I’m stagnating or losing things in my art. It’s ultra inspiring!!

SenshiStock - These guys do a ton of pose work that is infinitely helpful for references.

PoseManiacs - 3D models posed at all different kinds of angles with varying body types--really helpful when you’re trying to nail perspective down with a figure who’s a body type you’re not used to drawing.

And most of all, collect references! I have a ton of tutorials and stock photos saved to my computer to help out when muscles and bones just aren’t making sense in my head and I check them all the time. Once you start to learn where things go and how they work together, that’s when you should start trying to distort and change shapes around.

Learning the basics and correct anatomy first is always super important for any body type! 

One last note when it comes to drawing different stuff (at least for me) is to look at the silhouette and shapes that make up a person. Once you start to understand how people are different in this regard, it becomes a ton easier to change things up and make characters more distinct!

:o!!! I love it!!!

A good age!! (I turned 31 recently….)
