Speaking of different body shapes. These are all basically peak human bodies. 

How come 99% of them don’t conform to what the entertainment industry tells us is the perfect body?

This is a FABULOUS set of body refs. So glad this came back across my dash so I could reblog it here :D

These images are from a book by Howard Schatz of various Olympic athletes, which was titled “Athlete.”  You can buy the book [here].  Also, have some more photos from it:

Never not reblogging this.

Awesome!

Healthy Homemade Soda Tutorial (part 1)
Fresh Fruit Homemade Soda  (part 2)

Everyone knows drinking soda (soda pop) is absolutely terrible for the body. In my opinion one of the worst american food related habits we have.

Using Fresh fruit, having control of the amount of sugar used, is a great alternative for those of us who want to wean ourselves off commercial brand sodas, so DIY!

The whole film took me altogether about 5 grueling months (usually 10-12hours a day) to do. I often felt my butt was going to grow into the chair I usually sat at. 

Please note that this was simply my way of doing my film to achieve the soft-shaded style I wanted; there are many other ways of doing this and some are a lot faster with different results~! :)

• My film on DeviantArt | My film on Vimeo
• My film gifs on Tumblr
• You can see my storyboard animatic here (although the original had music, but like I mentioned, my placeholder music was by Joe Hisaishi, you know, Miyazaki’s composer, so it’s not really legal to upload it). 

This tut differs a bit from my dA version, because tumblr lets me put the combination of gifs and jpegs :D. 

Here’s a book that will really help you start animating:

• The Animator’s Survival Kit 

here’s some books that are good for composition, storytelling and colours:

• Dream Worlds: Production Design for Animation
• The Art of Pixar: The Complete Color Scripts and Select Art from 25 Years of Animation
• Prepare to Board! Creating Story and Characters for Animated Features and Shorts

I hope these helped

I ask that no one removes the credit or source for this tutorial/guide please. thanks :)

A couple people asked me how I vary my leaves and trees and honestly, it’s super easy! I’ve never made a tutorial/guide before so I kept this mega simple but I hope someone out there might find it useful at least!

Also, anyone can download the brushes I use for all my art on my tumblr page (: I only use around 5 so go nuts haha
