Need to clean your Word doc to post on tumblr or Ao3?

I recommend this: Word2CleanHTML

It saves my butt when I copy paste from word in AO3, in Tumblr. It gets rid of all the hidden code from Word Docs. 

Where has this been all my life????

I … wow yes, thank you. @_@

So I did go ahead and setup a flickr pro account to dump Mass Effect screencaps into(as a resource for whatever). It is {here}. Mostly Eden Prime atm, but I have about another 500 caps to go through, cull, upload and tag, all lined up. But, back to finding Wrex.

Details are on the side of the set but the basics are; 1920x1080 • Texmod overhaul used (no low res garrus) • PNG format (no jpg image degradation) • Flycam usage • Character tags

As I mentioned previously, I am taking my time when playing. There are only about 120 caps up atm, but I will continue to add to this in chunks of 50-200 images at a time.

Also, reminder; my edits are not a resource. Don’t use them as a base or repost them. Any caps I upload to flickr, feel free to use however for whatever!

Skulls, Noses and Lips and a great painting process all done by Griffinfly!

The skull model is a google sketch up model you can grab from 3d warehouse.

If you do the skull studies I would suggest throwing some eyes into the skull for an added bonus and it gives an awesome creepy personality to the skull. It’s something I picked up from my kickass teacher Erik Gist.

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 interact with them (rotation, etc) and has a very cool 30 second drawing tool. Also I belieeeve this is available on iOS.

Pixelovey - Another fantastic drawing tool - I prefer it over PoseManiacs’ but I can NEVER FIND THE LINK :( Lots of options here, too.

CedarSeed - The drawings here aren’t great but there is so much information here.

Color Is Value - Handy coloring tips and things!

Ctrl+Paint - So many digital painting tutorials. SO MANY. Ridiculously helpful in everything ever, and constantly updated.

The Angry Animator - Because come on, all sorts of handy animation tips. I linked directly to the walk cycle because I found it to be most useful but there are other things floatin’ around there if that’s your thing~

Constructing the Head/Face - Done by Stanislav Prokopenko, an instructor. Also really seems to know what he’s talking about. Saving images off of Tumblr seems to be hit-or-miss so keep this link handy as it may not save correctly.

Drawing Muscles - Some of you may remember this from all of James Phegan’s classes ever! Super handy, and this is a printable version of the giant jpg he used to e-mail us.

Drawing more Muscles - The same artist; she’s really damn good at drawing beefy dudes.

Drawing People in Perspective

Nude models and drapery

Nude models in all sorts of poses

Color Scheme Designer - Allows you to quickly and easily create specific color schemes for a wide variety of purposes! If you’re like me and terrible with color, this will help.

I’m trying to make my art a little more realistic, does anyone have nose references?

hurrrg:

afuturegentleman:

I have this

Dunno if it helps though..

???

SCREAMS AND SLAMS ON BLOG

I have a couple of references and tutorials I used when I was first drawing digital noses. Noses remain the BANE OF MY EXISTENCE to this day, though.

Deviantart is a GREAT place to find these btw. Most of mine have come from there or books.

— Nose tutorial by MasterSS

— Nose Painting by acidlullaby

— Nose Painting tutorial by propensity

— plus the art resources blog on tumblr has a TON of tutorials on like, EVERYTHING… I have them bookmarked. HERE

Not sure if those help, but thought I would share.
