Thinking About How One Person Told Isaac Lahey I Dont Want You To Get Hurt For The First Time In His

thinking about how one person told isaac lahey “i don’t want you to get hurt” for the first time in his life and he immediately responded to that with diehard trust and devotion.

like isaac is living it up, finally as powerful as that boy at the dinner table always wanted to be, but then scott is all gentle with him and cares about him so genuinely and you can See in isaac's eyes how it cuts through the leather jacket facade he’d been putting on.

he goes to scott instead of derek, his alpha, because scott always seems to want to do the right thing and maybe isaac does too. and scott shows him how to help instead of hurt and isaac cries because he got everything he ever wanted and scott showed him how to be even more than that, he showed him how to be good and so what's isaac gonna do but follow him anywhere

Can't afford art school?

After seeing post like this 👇

And this gem 👇

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.

Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.

📺Here is my list:

Proko (Free)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard)

Aaron Rutten (free)

BoroCG (free)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free)

Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)

Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price)

SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)

Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)

The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.

📚Here is my list:

The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.

"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.

"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.

"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.

"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.

"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.

"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.

"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.

"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.

Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.

As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are more expensive.

For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.

💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.

Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates)

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Libresprite (free, for pixel art)

Those are the ones I can recall.

So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.

I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.

Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

Fav scira moments ?

Omg, I have so many.

I absolutely 100% love their rain kiss (all three of them).

One of the many things I really like about Scira is that they’re very magnetic, it’s like they pull to each other and then instantly connect when they meet and the first rain kiss really shows that:

the second one is really playful and shot really nicely and pretty sexy until it gets interrupted

and the third one is so angsty, like 90s r&b slow jam music video kind of angsty

can we also appreciate how much it looks like Tyler and Arden enjoy kissing each other?

Anyway.

I also really love when he watches her eat pizza because the expression on his face is of complete adoration:

I love the “I remember and I meant it” scene because first of all, Scott isn’t being flippant and is just like no, I do love you, Kira:

but also because you see the kind of effect that Kira has on him, he’s in pain and the minute she touches him, he stills, he’s relieved of that hurt:

The 5x04 forehead kiss because they went through some shit and they just want to decompress and what calms them down, what gets them grounded, what gives them comfort is each other:

Their “acceptance” scene:

because I know that Scallison had their own version of this when he transforms back into being fully human Scott as she kisses him and I love, love that scene as well but the Scira scene has a sort of tenderness and gentleness to it that’s unique to Scira, like their expressions are of wonder, Kira’s wonder is of this complete other side of Scott and she purposefully asks to see his wolf face and Scott’s wonder and awe is of the fact that she isn’t just accepting, she’s deeply moved by what she sees.

Their accidental kiss:

It was funny and it was cute and I liked how it was already habitual for Scott to peck Kira before they had that “are we boyfriend and girlfriend?” conversation and I love the subsequent kiss in the episode in which they both lean into being a couple:

When my guy literally jumped out of a moving vehicle and wolfed out immediately to have Kira’s back

and then when their reunion kiss with Stiles AND Kira’s mom in the front seats:

This sexy-ass makeout/sex scene

Them just sleeping together

Their moonlit dance:

Everything about their date in 4x11

Their angsty hug

His flippant-but-not-flippant I love you

Every time he calmed her fox

Their cuddle

When she gives him her tail, there’s a sense of eternity to that gesture

When he comforted her about her fox

and many more!

*none of these are my gifs*

I can't believe how mixed-up the fandom (and the LOK writers) get Katara and Zuko's characters.

I want to make this clear, just because she grew up during the war, doesn't mean Katara was forced to fight. I honestly don't know where people get this from. Her cultural norms very blatantly dictate for her not to. It was something she vehemently struggled against to be able to do. It was always her initiative and choice to fight because that's who Katara is; a warrior.

Hell, she's even reveled in dominating her opponents and showing off her skills in battle

But you know who was forced to fight? You know whose skewed concepts of honor dictated him to fight? You know whose society urged him towards participating in war? You know who was the most at-ease and relaxed working peacefully in his uncle's tea shop?

The entire concept of Zuko's character is that he doesn't easily thrive as a warrior and doesn't enjoy fighting if he can avoid it. One of the key things he learns post-redemption is that fire isn't just a force of destruction, it's also life and passion. And that's what allows him to be a better firebender later.

So it makes no sense that Katara gave up on fighting before Zuko. And don't misunderstand, both of them should have been still relatively active (because Zuko is a warrior too and the point of this post is not to claim he isn't). But between the two of them, Zuko would have been the one to embrace peace and retire

Ok now do NYT columnists
