i do art; sculpture major. She/They. might put nerd shit here, might not. I am, in fact, a grown adult and would rather minors not interact.

this is a poster i made for my call to action assignment in humanities! it's a bunch of basic and easy stretches for people who sit and work at a desk all day (me)

the idea is that you'd put the poster up above ur desk and do the stretches every 30 minutes or so,, the whole routine won't take more than about 6 minutes to complete and when done regularly it can prevent wrist, shoulder, neck and back pain! :)

all these stretches can be done while sitting (although i HIGHLY recommend you stand up and move around while taking a break from working)

you can get a free digital copy of this poster here on my gumroad!

Dragon Age Tarot Style Guide: Part Two

The second of my at least three part set of tarot tutorials. This sentence will link to the first one on composition if you haven’t seen it. It’s been a four year gap between these, and I apologize for that. To all you who messaged me and reminded me of this project, thank you. You kept me from forgetting and I’m glad. <3

It won’t be another four years until I post the next segment, which will be pattern and texture focused. It’ll hopefully be in the next month or two. 

This is going to be a long post, so I’m putting it under the cut. Apologies to the mobile users!

Dragon Age Tarot Style Guide: Part One

This is the first in a fair few tutorials I’ll be doing concerning DA tarots and how I approach them. This is going to be a long post, with pictures and a lot of writing because I’m long winded. Most of this is going to be under the cut. (My deepest apologies to mobile users.)

Anonymous asked:

hey you said companion tarot cards usually use really specific and limited color schemes and i was wonder what you mean by that? like what kind of colors or what kind of schemes do you mean?

Hi anon! This is kind of a complicated one so I drew some diagrams : D

From my observations, most of the cards seem to be built on a warm/cold contrast over a spread analogous palette. It’s the ratio of these colours that is important to the overall tone - while some are fairly even analogous, others are instead simply complementary with an accent or even complementary without an accent (e.g. Varric’s lyrium card).

Typically, one colour will come strongly saturated with the other less so, but they will remain within a sort of ‘traditional’ range so as not to look too obviously digital. I would stress the use of hue and saturation gradients and shifts as you paint or fill in your shapes, but the shapes should remain clearly readable as a single colour. Most shadows are also full of colour - for example the ambient occlusion shadows on Hawke’s arms are full of cold greens and warm reds. Blend in some of the opposite cold and warm colours into the highlights and shadows to give the image more coherence where it is painted (this is particularly the case in the Bull/Qunari card).

Bear in mind this is just colour stuff and of course there are a lot of other steps to the cards, but I hope it helps : D Good luck!

"The golem is a creature of Jewish folklore. They are humanoid and traditionally made of clay, though this one is made of cut aluminum.

Originating in Prague, the golem was created as a protector for the downtrodden Jews who lived in the slums there. The lettering on his forehead spells out "amet" or "truth" in hebrew. This lettering is what brings the golem to life in the folklore.
