Blood And Silk

I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.

Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.

Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.

Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.

SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.

SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

I fear Dinin's failboy swag has captivated me, I do love to see a man chained up and terrified

Meanwhile Kaitain and Taayrul get put on babysitting duty to keep Malagdorl from getting himself killed

And Ravel and Saribel continue to be the only normal siblings in all of Menzoberranzan

Also nothing bad better happen to Braelin or else (sidenote but House Vandree having human skull cups is cool as hell, and Chellith being like 'well they're only for special occasions' is really funny, also rip Chellith I guess)

Malagdorl ripping someone's throat out with his teeth waow

Yay Allefaero's back

How do you manage to misspell a character's name two lines after last writing it

Btw why is Drizzt in those Part X things calling her Lloth when the title says Lolth & Dinin called her Lolth earlier

YES EFFRON IS FINALLY BACK (very briefly but still, also he's in Baldur's Gate 👀)

Oh Dinin, Braelin nooo (they're like okay-ish now but like, by male drow torment nexus standards)

Also Preego Melarn is up there as one of the most Glup Shitto names of the series

“What could go wrong with a fireball, after all?” Gromph said dryly, and when Catti-brie looked at him, she saw that he was staring her way.

He was trying to show her that he was still that hard-hearted and merciless grand wizard from Menzoberranzan, she recognized, and she thought it rather . . .

Cute? Or pathetic?

Oh my god he's her poor little meow meow

“Have you learned anything?

“Only that her twisted son is still a foul creature.”

Don't be rude about my boy Effron, he's allowed to be as horrible as he wants

BRAELIN!!! istg he better be okay by the end of this book

also I need to kick Malagdorl down a flight of stairs (affectionate)

did Yvonnel just get hit with the monopoly go to jail card

“I find your lack of faith disturbing,” said Avernil.

Star Wars reference???

They've been really into those edging metaphors these past few books

KIMMURIEL!?!?!?

I really hope Ravel and Saribel make it out of this alive at least

okay, I did suspect he would take over Malagdorl but what is he gonna do with his mind now, because I really don't want him dead dead

Okay so apparently everyone is pulling suicide moves now. Can they not?

Dinin has no idea who he'd have to get through to kill Breezy, that is the most protected child on all of Toril

Okay, so Gromph is alive at least, but uhm

Did they manage to misspell Effron as Ethan somehow? Did nobody proofread this fucking book?

Kimmuriel is the orb that's being pondered now

Also good for Saribel and Ravel that they made it out of there alive, that means I also have a reason for my Tav to be on the surface now

Also hopefully they can find Yvonnel because she's like the only person who could definitely turn Kar'niss back (and Astarion if they manage to make a smaller version of that web)

Now I just gotta manage to listen to Betwixt Two Worlds this weekend (I am so bad at listening to audiobooks)

Reading every d&d book progress: 40 (3,31%)

There's tons of art by other artists in the community. From two videos alone (these: 1. 2.) I gathered these artists:

@imagazhiraga , @the-nothing-maker , @luthierscurse , @epiclad and several others, though they don't have tumblr I think.
