Experiment Part 1: Training Your EyeSo my buddy *karuvan is trying to learn how to draw properly. He's been on a roll as far as progressing. But he's stuck at a standstill. This is an experiment that I've done with him and that he's working on in order to train his eye. I decided to share the conversation and experiment with you guys for you all to apply to your study habits and advancement in drawing and art.Read on!__________________________________________Karuvan: I randomly drew over my old pic. Ain't gonna do it over, was just curious on how much I could have done better.Robaato: Quick question... like... who's work at this point do you really want yours to be close to?

Rumour controlEver since shortly after BroNYCon January, ugly rumours about me, and about the con, have circulated over and over throughout the Internet. (They have been accompanied by frequent LGBT-bashing attacks and bigotry.) This isn't a coincidence or the random work of disinterested trolls. It is a deliberate and prolonged smear campaign.Shortly after BroNYCon January, five staffers made a power grab, attempting to obtain financial and logistical control over the con. I did not let them seize control. They walked; only two returned even temporarily to the staff. These now ex-staffers have been leaking documents and spreading lies and distortions about me, and about BronyCon, ever since. Their aim was to destroy my reputation and that of the con.When I was on the staff myself, I wasn't allowed to react to any of this. I was under tremendous pressure from the staff to ignore these rumours. But the people spreading them are very persistent. It's late March, and the rumours are still swirling. A
Sign this petition for more female DC creators!Please sign this!!! Several dA people are on there (full disclosure, I'm on there, so is *interpunkt).PLEASE PLEASE SIGN THIS!! A lady dressed like Batgirl asked some really hard hitting questions at the convention at all the dc panels (do you know how hard it is to get into those??? HOLY CRAP, LADY!). She was met with really rude, offhanded, bullying treatment by panel members. She asked why DC had dropped from 12% female creators to 1% and was met with derision. The crowd was turned against her. I literally cried reading what was said to her.

LIVESTREAM/HETAONI!YES! I am going to stream HetaOni! I have tested it with a friend and on my computer is runs smoothly and you can read the subs. So, PLEASE READ! All Hetalia fans who have not seen HetaOni should take part in this! Even if you have, why not rewatch it with a bunch of friends?Alright, so HetaOni is a series that has been translated on YouTube. Although it is just as easy to watch the episodes your self, it is fairly exciting to watch the series with other Hetalia fans. It is somewhat like a get-together for HetaOni.Now, the series is extremely long. Okay that that long, but a decent amount. The series is unfinished, leaving off at Episode 17, Part 2. Though, there are so many HetaOni fans, and the series is just fantastic. It is truly worth watching it. Now, the creator may or may not make more, apparently she is taking a break from it, or something along those lines. Also, every episode has been translated to English. So yeah.If you are to participate in this, I suggest using either
