Just in case you forget this exists.

It exists.

With those “when you want to design a character but you don’t know color theory” posts flying around I thought this would be relevant again.

there’s also Coolors website that gives you randomized palettes!

Don’t forget ColourLovers, either! It’s a social media-esque site where you can browse tons of palettes and share your own.

image

You can browse the most popular ones or search for certain colors, themes, and even specific hex codes!

image

When you find one you like, you can download a wallpaper swatch of it and also select the specific colors it uses to look at more palettes that use those same ones.

image

ColourLovers is my go-to for when I’m having trouble coming up with a color scheme! It’s also been around for over a decade, so there’s plenty to browse through.

Okay but for anyone who legit wants to know how to calculate it correctly:

The elbow joint on average rests a couple inches higher than the navel, so if you measure how long the distance is from the middle of the shoulder to that point then you have the length of the upper and fore arms!

fernacular

So if anyone’s wondering about legs too, the simplest rule of thumb is that the length from the top of the leg to the knee is equal to the distance between the top of the leg and the bottom of the pectorals:

image

And I wanna stress that when i say “top of the leg” i’m not talking about the crotch (please don’t flag me tumblr it’s an anatomical term) i’m talking about the point where the femur connects to the pelvis, which is higher up on the hips:

image

It’s easier to see what I’m talking about in this photo of a man squatting: 

image

So yeah if you use that measurement when using this technique you should get fairly realistically proportioned legs:

image

But remember! messing with proportions is an important and fun part of character design! Know the rules first so you can then break them however you please!

HOW THE HELL DID I FIND THIS POST OMG

Her: are you okay?

Me: I’m fine

What I mean: Skip beat! Is one of my first shoujo manga love, portrayed a young girl getting her heart broken to some jerkface but instead of makeing the plot a central love triangle were the girl defeats the boy who wrong her by getting together with another guy instead makes her in charge of her own destiny literally using her spite to prove others wrong. The main focus is the plot is not centered around romance but around her rebuilding, regaining her sense of self and her ability to not only love herself but others around her. Instead of putting her against other female characters in petty fights or senseless comparisons they instead use each female character as a complex building block not only for herself but also to develop those female characters. A beautifully shows the complex feelings that one has to trust another person not only to just be vulnerable near them but also romantic. Just girls supporting girls! (Its been reference that the main lead isn’t your typical ‘straight’ girl) It’s story demonstrates that love comes in many different shapes and forms and we should never grow to become so harsh or cynical with a romanticized idea of innocent love. Though with all her hardships, the main character still believes in fairy tales and still retains her child like fantasy, validating young girls who still believe in those tales. The male lead is the first one to admit his feelings (I mean to the audience but still in many shoujo mangas it’s usually the main female character expressing it abundantly clear that she has feelings for the male lead but this time the audience is completely aware that the male lead is the one who fell for her first) which is like! Whoah! The in story plot has literally only taken two years! and throughout her time in the story our female lead has always been growing for herself rather than someone else. It has literally been an ongoing manga for over 16 yrs now 16 YEARS!

Also me: I just want my baby girl Kyoko to be happy

So in lore, vampires have this trait that I’ve almost never seen used, and that’s the fact that vampires are OBSESSED with counting things. Like, the Count on Sesame Street was almost certainly created specifically as a vampire because of this piece of lore.

Like, I read this vampire book years and years ago that explained that a surefire way to protect yourself from vampires getting into your house was to spread a ton of seeds on your doorstep–poppy and mustard seeds were particularly recommended for the purpose. Basically, if you suspected someone to be a vampire, all you had to do was drop a sackful of seeds on the ground in front of them.

If they didn’t immediately start counting them, they were not a vampire. However, if they WERE a vampire, they’d be seized with the urge to count all the seeds and they would not budge from that spot until they knew how many seeds there were in total. The point was to keep them there until the sun came up and killed them, because if they hadn’t counted all the seeds by sunrise they wouldn’t be able to leave. Presumably you could just go about the rest of your evening as normal, though no word on whether it’s possible to make them lose count and start over.

Having remembered this piece of lore, I want fewer stories about brooding tortured Edward Cullen-esque vampires. I want to start seeing more stories about math nerd vampires.

Vampire accountants who are an honest company’s best asset and a corrupt company’s bane because they are frighteningly accurate with the accounts and will not hesitate to blow the whistle on a CEO scamming money because fuck you for making the numbers wrong.

Vampire cashiers that don’t need to look at the register screen because they already mentally calculated your total. 10-items-or-less vampires who know goddamn well you have 20 items in that basket and NO, you cannot just slip in with the rest.

Vampire math tutors who are constantly in high demand and have to hold lotteries to see who gets to be tutored by them.

MATH NERD VAMPIRES

If anyone would like the term for this, it’s arithmomania.

“But sir, he’s a vampire!!!”

“Vampire or not, he’s the best damn accountant we have here, and i’d let him drink my blood before i fire him!”

Okay but also, vampires as drug dealers- a profession that requires extremely quick, extremely accurate counting.
“You’re 5 dollars short.”
“There’s 50,000 dollars in there at least, how the fuck did you count that fast-”
“Pay up or I will drink you like a slurpee.”
