Speaking of artist-confessions...
fox-orian:
After looking quite a bit at artist-confessions and seeing so many posts full of anger and confusion, I thought I’d make two of my own that were a little more advisory and uplifting.
I dunno if artist-confessions will post them, as they don’t follow their apparent design aesthetic WHATsoever, but hey, they’re personal confessions!

Pro Tip: Looking for a 13x19 Large-Format Printer?...
fox-orian:
So, some of you may be thinking about a printer to get yourself to produce your own high-quality, large sized prints at home. Problem is, a lot of these higher-end printers can be pretty costly — way more than you’d like to spend on *just* a printer. On average, a semi-professional printer can be found for cheapest $400 to $500 online. So what’s the value in one of these? (If you want...

jQuery Vertical Slideshow →
Guess who just found the solution to a problem before I even started working on trying to create one myself! WHOOOOOO!
Now to figure out how to install it! <—-never used jQuery before
This is gonna make one awesome gallery though. B) I had originally intended on building one in Flash Catalyst. This is MUCH better! AND it’s free to use!

memes that are more useful than actual class
hospitalvespers:
here is a list of deviantart memes that are more helpful than our character design teacher could ever hope to be. i wouldn’t say you have to do all of them, or even every thing in each one (switch stuff up a bit if it inspires you to draw a different pose), but they’re all good starting places!

"Pretty Art" and superficial appeal
catussnake:
pollums:
Okay prepare yourself for a long post anon ahahahah! Sorry!
I have this term that I’ve been throwing around for a few years to refer to a very specific tendency in art- I call it “Pretty Art”.

brushes I work with (photoshop/sai)
camaryllis:
I decided to answer this pretty thoroughly so if you ever care about what kind of brushes I draw with, here’s the masterpost for it I guess?* Images/explanations under the cut.
I’m sorry I don’t really download brushes often, and when I do I end up not bothering with them??? Probably because I’m conditioned by these brushes I have already…

Art Link Megapost
kowareta:
ArtsyPoses - Relatively new, but very cool. The 30 second drawing tool seems to be glitching a little but that could be my computer being a dumb. Lots of unique poses and they’re looking to expand to other body types (if you read the FAQ they even said there are too many fit models).
PoseManiacs - Everybody knows this one! Great poses, you can...
