Second one of these little case file animations!! Still frame of the text is under the cut, since it was so heavily requested last time.

Here’s a mini tutorial on something that the Supernatural fan artist might find handy: how to whip up a nice plaid flannel pattern fast!

Drawing “Lazy Plaid” step by step:

1. Background color.

2. Make a NEW layer and pick your stripe color. Draw all lines going in one direction (vertical or horizontal.)

3. Change layer opacity to 50%.

4. Make another NEW layer, and draw all lines going the other way.

5. Change that layer’s opacity to 50%.

6. Repeat steps 2-5 with a second color, using the first stripes as a guide (always draw to the left of the other stripes on vertical layer, beneath other stripes on horizontal layer, for example. That’s what I did here.) 

And that’s it! Chibi Sam is modeling the color I drew in the steps. 

Tips and Suggestions:

Try to make the negative space between the lines near the criss-crossing parts turn out square.

You need to have the same size lines going each direction for it to look like plaid.

Play with colors! Flannel/plaid cannot be too bright and colorful, but it’s good to stick to 3-4 colors, tops. Remember that crossing colors will blend – Sam’s shirt has purple in it because I criss-crossed blue and red!

ALWAYS start a new layer for each stripe direction and color, or the reduced opacity will not make your cute lil plaid squares pattern where the lines criss-cross.

Tinker with opacity – I like somewhere between 50 and 75 percent.

Try making one color set of lines thick and the other thin.

Curving your plaid lines around shirt wrinkles and stuff sells it that the pattern is on the shirt and moving with it.

This can be used to make more of a basic checked pattern by drawing only one set of very thick lines.

I noticed the pockets of flannel shirts tend to have the pattern diagonal, which it’s not on the rest of the shirt. Good to know for realism!

Have fun, deck your hunter characters out in bright flannels, and by all means, link me if you use my tutorial. I wanna see your art! ♥ 

I’ll leave you with a few more plaid patterns to contemplate:

We are smart enough to know hot things should be hot.

It wasn’t an issue of the coffee being because no fucking shit coffee is hot, but McDonald’s had over heated their water to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s 121C. Not just hot, but really FUCKING hot. Your fancy Starbucks lattes are brewed to 150 degrees.

The 79 year old woman had this cup of 250F (121C) coffee between her legs when it spilled so 250F (121C) coffee spilled on her genitals

She got third degree burns…on her genitals. THIRD DEGREE.

She had to have skin grafts to repair the damage

When she sued McDonald’s, it wasn’t for millions of dollars, it was for $20,000 to cover hospital costs and court fees. 20-fucking-thousand.

It was the courts that awarded her the amount of money she got. Again, she only wanted hospital bills and court costs

McDonald’s changed their heating policy, but not before making her sign a gag order keeping her from talking about this case

9. The woman who was burned was not driving the car, she was a passenger.

10. The car was not in motion when she was burned. The car was parked so she could add cream and sugar.

When she was burned, she reached out to McDonald’s for them to cover her medical expenses. They sent her a coupon booklet as a big eff yuu.

She required skin grafts not just on her genitals but on her thighs, buttocks, and I think stomach. Like, it was a lot of skin grafts! And did you know that skin grafts don’t always take? She was very severely hurt by a product that McDonald’s knew for a FACT was dangerous.

Legitimately “frivolous” lawsuits don’t make it to court and if by some miracle they do, the lawyer that brought it is getting slapped with Rule 11 sanctions. 

What are Rule 11 sanctions you ask? 

Good question! 

Rule 11 sanctions are the court’s way of punishing non-criminal bad lawyering and they can be almost anything. Sometimes they’re fines. Very very heavy fines that can mean the end of a private practice or serious debt for a long time. The loss of a house or a private property. Sometimes it’s humiliating, like retaking classes. (I have to find that case, that was hilarious.) Either way even being sanctioned can permanently ruin a lawyer’s reputation and therefore their practice for the rest of their career.

Rule 11 sanctions are something they spend the first year scaring us with to make sure we learn the rules and research needed to be good lawyers.

If someone doesn’t have a genuine claim, the case doesn’t make it to court.

No one is going to risk their career for a bullshit claim.
