Kinda feel like there's some untapped meme/reaction image potential from old horror movie trailers...

Since this is gaining traction again, here are the final ones. These had been on separate posts but I suppose they'll be more likely to be noticed here.

I doubt I'll post any more after this but I highly encourage others to go find more. YouTube has tons of old movie trailers and there is PLENTY of gold left to find.

Anonymous asked:

How do you feel about the fact that as a big artist with a lot of fans, you cant engage with fandom spaces and such the same way anymore? Or is there no problem?

kianamaiart answered:

Eh I’m pretty lowkey now anyways. I learned pretty early that putting my opinions out there would usually start discourse (in that anything I said would blow up and usually leave my circle pretty easily) and it would stress me out. At first I felt like I was tiptoeing but after a bit I was just kinda like,,, well who cares. No one needs to know my opinions on anything anyways. Any fandom hot take I have, I’ll usually reserve for my friends. I feel like I’m good at picking my battles nowadays hahaha. I’ve kinda adopted a “post and leave” approach over the years and it’s done wonders for my mental health

I just do my thing and hope that people enjoy what I have to show~

There's a way to remove it~

Go into the power shell

then paste in:

reg add HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot /v "TurnOffWindowsCopilot" /t REG_DWORD /f /d 1

like this

Then restart. Also here is how to turn off the awful search suggestions:

hot artists don't gatekeep

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.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

I think I've posted most of these before, but it's been a while, and I had fun looking at them today-- here's my little collection of concept drawings for Ghosts of the Future, from probably the summer of 2007. It's fun to see what made it into the comic and what didn't. (Nicolai the Lynx was an OC who was going to be an antagonist-- a GUN scientist sorta guy. He was replaced by Nicole before the comic started, which reshaped a lot of the story's direction)

This is actually a redraw of some of the ORIGINAL CONCEPT ART for the comic, when I was still figuring out the vibe! 2007 vs. 2024
