It’s been a weird day and the best thing I can for myself right now is drink some water and go to bed early. Instead I am plotting out a fukken meme sketch and whether to get another soda…
this is so awesome because usually the model for the type is super skinny but this I can actually use God bless.
I love that it complements each and every body type they talk about, and dont just say that they should have a hourglass figure and that they need t create the ilussion of having a hourglass figure.
I love this so much! There are many ways that people are built and it’s so good to finally see that talked about in a positive way, and to see them actually hire larger models. Also those illustrations are excellent.
Character designers, take note: women are not all one shape that can only vary by boob size. And everyone carries fat differently! If you design a larger character, don’t just add neck rolls and a pot belly and call it quits. Practice drawing people of different sizes that you see in real life. Don’t just use life models who are young and thin and white and “pretty”, because the world is much more diverse than that and you’re limiting your skills by ignoring the world around you.
I was flipping through youtube links yesterday and came across this interview with Malcolm X on CBC’s Front Page Challenge. It can be rare to see a major American figure like this on Canadian television! What a powerful and precise speaker, just hit play and try to stop watching.
This picture was on one of my friend’s pages and I wanted to share it here because I find myself returning to the point that it makes, over and over again.
