6am Poem
***Sad Poem, Sorry***
It's dark in here
I know it will only get darker from here
I think its because I'm dead
I remember thinking I was still asleep
No
I was waking up
I was in the hospital with my mommy and my daddy
No
my mom and dad
When I sat up
No
When I opened my eyes I saw my dad’s silent tears
Drop drop drop
It was strange because mom was throwing her papers around
Her precious papers
The ones with names and dates and insurance and…
Ha
I had never seen the pictures with them
The hand-drawn ones
Mom was a hurricane
She screamed and cried and not a tear fell
I can't quite see the clock on the far side of the room now
My hand
No something that used to be my hand
Was in my dad’s
That was the last bright thing I would see
I looked around for…
Well I suppose for someone to guide me
There was no road away no specter to take me
So I stayed
Mom and dad went into a fury to find who did this to me
Who was to blame for six months in a coma
For my… for the end
For some reason, the doctors lied
They said it was an accident
Someone hit me and I crashed
I can hardly see the edge of the table now
For a moment I could see what I did like a red brand on my chest
I drank and drank and drank
And drank
I drank myself to the edge
Somewhere; somewhere deep inside of me had already jumped
But I still drove
Drove off the road
Drove down the cliff
Drove right into a tree
My pain…
I don't want to talk about the pain
Not now that I can only see this paper
I remember wanting to say goodbye
To say I love you one more time
I guess I can
like this
On a page on my desk
But I don't think mommy and daddy will come into my room
They won't find this
I can't see anythin
love your little girl
Rules: answer 20 questions, then tag 20 people you want to get to know better.
My boy @cottonandpennies hitting me UP with the Good Shit, HELL yeah
Nicknames: I’ve gone by a few. The current is Harmy, but I get known as Symph, Egmun, Fred, and 🍤
Height: 5’3″ most of the time, 5′4″ in the morning
Orientation: Crippling Depression
Favorite fruit: Probably cantaloupe? But there’s a lot of good contenders. Mango, honeydew melon, apple, peach, nectarine...
Favorite Season: Spring? Technically summer, but not the summer most people think of. Our summers are like springs in Renaissance paintings of heaven, our springs are like soggy late winter.
Favorite Flower: I associate myself the most with vinca minor, or common periwinkle.
Favorite Scent: I love the smell of petrichor in my neighbor’s garden, cause it’s rain on the ground but also soil and flowers and cold air. But also, kitchen smells.
Favorite Color: Usually I go for forest greens, the grand spectrum of greener blues and very light petal pink. Gold sneaks in there too, but Green and Blue are the main ones.
Favorite Animal: Chinchillas and crows. Deer are really aesthetic too.
Coffee, Tea, Hot Chocolate: You know my heart says hot cocoa but my mind reminds me that of the three, I drink Green Tea the most...
Average hours of sleep: I tell myself 10 and usually wind up with about 7-5.
Cat or dog person: Dogs, and cats that won’t break me and the things I live with? Is that realistic?
Favorite fictional characters: That sounds like a meme in and of itself. It’d be easier to narrow it down by story than overall. As opposed to ‘favorite’ the ones I get associated with/remembered for is Link from LOZ (TP and BOTW versions specifically), Danny from Danny Phantom, Karkat Vantas from Homestuck and Princess Aurora from Disney’s Sleeping Beauty. That’s not EVEN the tip of the iceburg though, this question is so so wide.
Number of blankets I sleep with: Four and a comforter. I get. Real snug. I have a pattern.
Dream trip: Food tour of Europe! Food tour of Europe! Food tour of Europe! Also Japan, but I go to Japan already so...maybe seeing the parts of Japan I haven’t visited yet?
Blog Created: 2018? This blog. I’ve been here a lot longer though. 2012? Earlier?
Number of followers: [checks] 17 for here, 76 for my other? Yeet.
Random fact: While there’s a big gap somewhere in the middle, I have the full range of singing ability from alto to High C+ Soprano. Singing and music is literally my #1 mode of expression here on this good earth yall.
Tagging: Ok well I know @brokenpocketwatch already got tagged, but @venusbeautyshock @roboscreaming @storysetter, @turntechdicksquad (Or wherever you’re on now Jazzi!) and anyone else interested GET YOU SOME

Hey Climb, do you have any tips for coloring cats in a night scene? I'm a newb to coloring, so I don't know what the right colors are for all the furs
yeah sure i can show you how i do it
((lineart + character design by @hoxau))
so first things first is color in your character. it helps to already have the background done so you can pull the colors from it and help make your character blend in more.
new layer set at normal - 20%
i use a blue i picked from the bg, and cover the entire character. darker characters need a lower opacity while lighter characters need a higher opacity. this mutes your colors and makes your character seem more natural
new layer set at multiply - 50%
here i shade the character, using the same blue i used before. i locked the shading layer, then used the airbrush and a lighter blue color to help soften the edges.
new layer set at overlay - 100%
using a airbrush i take a light neon blue and add a soft highlight
new layer set at multiply - 45%
taking a dark blue/black from the bg, i added another shadow under the chin to make the angle more dramatic
finally i color the lineart and add a glow behind him. ta-da
Top 12 alternatives to Photoshop for digital painters and illustrators
Hello there!
Yes, we haven’t done this in a while… but our inbox and chat are swamped with questions on the subject, so this article was very much needed.
it’s a simple list of art apps, but we know you love those :D
Enough with the intro, here it is, a list of twelve art apps you may want to check out.
ArtRage is an art program for beginners and professionals. With its minimal interface, it’s easy to keep the essential tools at hand without stealing space from the canvas. Panels can be moved around and tools can be customised. We all know how important it is for digital artists to be able to modify brushes!
Pros: easy to use; friendly interface; essential tools from professional apps available; available for iOS, Android, Windows and Mac
Cons: it may get sluggish with big files and when using big brushes, but performances also depend on the running machine; limited selection of editing tools if compared to Photoshop - ArtRage is more of a painting program rather than an editing one.
Paid
ArtRage Lite is a different version at a cheaper price, mostly for beginners, but also for professionals if they need the essential.
Now free, Sketchbook is the famous app created by Autodesk for various platforms.
Pros: clean, friendly interface; easy to use; professional features
Cons: lack of official tutorials; doesn’t offer as many tools as other apps (it’s down to the essential); paid subscription in Adobe style for multiple licenses
Free and paid
Black Ink is a powerful little program few actually know, but there’s a reason: this isn’t your classing drawing app. What’s cool about it is the vast selection of special brushes, completely non-realistic, and definitely able to boost your creativity.
Pros: vast selection of customisable brushes; excellent performance
Cons: not very easy to use; non-intuitive interface
Paid
This is probably the most complete software for painting, drawing and animation. It was originally known as Manga Studio, but with its updates and addition of features, it became Clip Studio Paint.
This doesn’t say much about the quality of the features themselves considering the affordable price (if you haven’t used the app yet, that is), but among graphic apps, this one is the top seller.
Pros: professional features for illustrators; layout tools for comic/manga artists; 3D reference models; customisable tools; various sales with special prices
Cons: the interface may not appear intuitive at first; the program may lag (again, performance also depends on the running machine)
Paid
GIMP is the famous open source image editor originally created for GNU/Linux and available for OS X and Windows.
Best known as Photoshop’s main competition, this is a manipulation program for both beginners and professionals who love design.
It offers many professional features, making the program a powerful tool.
Pros: professional editing tools; supports different formats; supported by different platforms; active community
Cons: in spite of the simple design, many options are hidden and it takes time to discover all the features; slow startup
Free
Krita is an open source painting app created by artists for artists.
Pros: easy to use; intuitive interface; great brush workflow; brush stabilizer; customisable brushes; general good performance; very enthusiastic, although small, community
Cons: it may be slow or even crash depending on the running computer and the app’s version; very few editing tools compared to Photoshop
Free
MediBang Paint is a free and light app for drawing and painting, perfect for manga and comic creation.
Pros: vast selection of brushes; cloud sharing; friendly, minimal interface (non-desktop app); also available for iPad, iPhone and Android
Cons: requires an account to use all features; non-intuitive interface (desktop version)
Free
Mischief is a sketching app with essential tools, useful for brainstorming and ideation.
Pros: infinite drawing canvas; friendly interface; easy to use; cheap pro version
Cons: few updates; offers only the essential (but that’s the point); no editing/adjustment tools
Free and paid
Corel’s jewel, Painter is the most famous software that offers digital tools able to give a traditional feel to brushes and canvas.
Pros: different selection of media; many professional features; PS-friendly
Cons: certain brushes may work slow; not easy to use at first; the software may crash (this is the most common report); pricey
Paid
Paintstorm Studio is a professional software for digital painting. It’s focused on the use of brushes and blending, which makes the software a little gem in the digital painting field.
Pros: good brush workflow; brush stabilizer; “close gap” feature; customisable interface and tools; professional features; affordable price
Cons: non-intuitive interface (desktop version)
Paid
Procreate is the powerful drawing app for iOS.
With the very sensitive Apple Pencil, Procreate is so easy to use that many artists chose the iPad over the most famous graphic tablets.
Pros: friendly interface; makes it easy to organise files; excellent brush workflow; customisable brushes; video recording; affordable price
Cons: hidden features; only available for iPad
Paid
SAI is a simple app for artists who want to focus on painting and drawing.
It’s well known for its good pressure support and its essential tools for manga artists, but SAI can be used by any kind of artist who wants to paint.
Pros: easy to use; friendly interface; light software; customisable brushes; tons of (non-official) tutorials
Cons: limited selection of tools, even basic ones; limited canvas sizes and uses; it might crash from intensive work, especially with big canvases and brushes; supports only RGB colour mode; lack of support
Paid
We hope you’ll find this list useful.
If you think there are other apps that should have made this list, don’t hesitate to let us know!
Thank you and peace out,
G&M

A long time ago, Wowaka’s music was something both me and my friends found ourselves in in a way we’d never found ourselves in anything before. It helped us through so many difficult times, in so many different ways.
I did a piece back during those times on Deviantart, and I wanted to revisit that for a second now.
Thank you, Wowaka, for everything you’ve given the people around you. I hope you’re so happy where you are.
It’s here !! The guide for two-legged people who don’t know how to draw wheelchairs !!! 7 pages of infodump ! Disclaimer : I don’t know everything, I have one (1) experience of wheelchair user who used both bad and good chairs, and I share what I learned.
Image description :
1) Calvin in his wheelchair saying “yo” under a huge title “how to draw manual wheelchairs properly by Calvin Arium, a wheelchair user comic artist”.
2) A character says “my character self propels in a chair that was outdated in 1970 lol” Calvin says “so it looks like you two legged people don’t know the difference between an hospital chair and a chair made to be independant” an arrow point the crapppy chair, saying “we never want to see this again”
a bubble says “the hospital chair is extremely unpractical, tough considering it’s cheaper than a good custom chair a lot of us have only this”
3) a character hurt himself trying to reach the wheels of the hospital chair. Several arrows point why the chair is unpractical : “high backrest restrain shoulders movement” “huge armrest restrains wheel access” “separated footrest : amovible, cheap, bulky” “x structure, foldable but heavy” “huge front casters for stability” “heavy wheels”
4) Several arrows point an active wheelchair (the KSL by Küshall) : “usually no armrest” “a low backrest allow more movement” “light, design, ferning expersive” “special cushion to avoind injuries” “knee angle is usually 90°” “one single piece of frame, sometimes entirely welded” “weight : from 4 to 10kg” “often rigid” “center of the wheel is the center of gravity” “higher quality wheels : less spikes”
5) A hand grab different parts of the wheel, pushing harder in the second half. Bubbles says “some have gloves, some don’t. The hand must grab the biggest area possible. Less movement = more energy. This is a common but not only way to push.Calvin is on his back wheels, rolling on grass and dirt bubble says “popping a wheelie is when a wheelchair user rolls on their back wheels to roll on every complicated surface.
6) several drawings illustrate the folding frame, the ergonomic but rigid and expensive backrest, the separated footrest (only for folding frame), the handles, the folding handles, athe amovibles handles, or no handles, the cool fancy loopwheels, the pretty custom colors
7) More Features ! The fancy rigid-foldable frame, the anti tippers (sometimes used by beginners), the motorization (wheels, smart drive) when propelling yourself is difficult Calvin says “and now vroom vroom motherfuckers”
Hey Goblins, uh
Did you know, that you can make an AWESOME journal for your adventures ALL ON YOUR OWN from a cereal box and paper/scraps that you likely have at home/can get from friends or family/you may find around your environment?
They’re called Junk Journals and they’re my entire life.
Im gonna do my best to walk you through how to make one! First, get you a mini cereal box! I use boxes from those cool multipacks of cereal that you can find at Walmart!
And then cut it out so it looks like this! (I already had one cut, so I’m gonna use that)
That “nutrition facts” side is gone become your spine!
Next, find some paper to use to decorate your cover! I was lucky enough to be gifted a bunch of scrapbooking paper, so I’m gonna use that, but you can also use newspaper, paper from books/magazines, junk mail, napkins, paper towels (excellent texture), etc!
Go ahead and glue that paper to your box (to cover the cereal logo) and cut it out! It’ll look like this;
Next you need to find your pages! Again these can be anything! Junk mail, envelopes, receipts, food wrappers, magazine/book pages, scrapbook paper, computer paper, construction paper, ANYTHING. Just grab a whole bunch!
You’re gonna want to fold them in half and cut them to the size of one of the covers of your box, and layer other pages inside of it to make your signatures, like this!
Each signature should be about 7-10 pages. You don’t want them too thick, otherwise the inner pages start sticking out when folded in half. You’re gonna have a LOT of these signatures, as you wanna fill the area in the spine as best as possible. For this one I’m using 7 page signatures. Here’s a pic to show just how much paper you’ll need
Each of these signatures are 7 pages, 6 signatures have only filled about half of the spine, so I’ll need probably 6 more.
Next you gotta figure out how you want them in your journal. Personally, I like to sew them into the spine, but you can also keep them in the spine with rubber bands, so you can have removable pages! (Be weary that rubber bands may break over time! So you may want to always keep extra bands near it to replace in case one snaps. This is why I prefer sewing them in) I find it best to look up on YouTube how to sew in signatures, just because having someone walk you through it where you can see what they’re doing is easiest. If you can’t access YouTube, there’s plenty of text tutorials on how to sew in signatures online, or you can message me! I’m not gonna go too into detail, but here’s the jist;
Okay so I’m a forgetful gob and I hecken forgot to take pictures as I was going along kahshshshsh
But essentially, I sewed in the pattern similar to the one I drew. The dots are where the needle goes all the way through to the back. I also like to use rubber band as an extra mode of support but you can do one or the other. I also like both cuz I can tuck stuff in em between the pages. Since I didn’t take more pictures; I’d really recommend looking up a how-to on YouTube or w/e if my badly drawn diagram isn’t clear enough (heh sorry about that)
Next, I glue fabric to the spine. It spruces it up quite a lot and holds the rubber bands in place, plus it give more support to the spine since there’s gonna be a lot of strain on it.
Only 10 photos per post, so I gotta post this and reblog it with the rest.
