I would approach any character as an androgynous person first, and build up a semblance of personality before developing them with gender in mind. Because otherwise you might fall into your default female tropes.
Yes this

Just as a tip in general, it helps to think about the roles God made a man or a woman to fill. Woman are the emotionally unstable mothers, while men are the factual, rational fathers who keep the wives from going insane. A man and a woman balance each other. Idk, maybe that isn’t a helpful tip at all, but it sure has helped me to think a…

I’m obviously not a guy, but my advice would be to find a happy medium between those two extremes. (Unless he actually would be on one end of the spectrum). Try to think of him as simply a character. Keep in mind that he’s a guy, but don’t get so caught up in that that you give him a reaction that isn’t consistent with his per…[Read more]

Oh, and does he look cocky? You mention his being prideful, is it obvious by looking at him? I love drawing character with a slight smirk but I want to make sure that is in line with his character if I do lol

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Art Challenge! in the forum Art 2 years, 1 month ago
oh ok this sounds cool!
I think I’ll draw him as a prince, could you describe his hair and features a little more? I mean I can use creative liberties, but like how long is his hair?
Also, would you describe him as being a little bit rough around the edges prince or really trim and neat?
For instance, Aragorn is a king that…[Read more]

AHHHHHH!
*Throws confetti and glitter everywhere*
Congratulations! Two books in two years? That’s so exciting.
Aww, you’re welcome, and I’ve loved getting to “meet” you here in the kingdom. Say hi to Leon and Riker for me.
Btw, my sister and I were playing with a random scene that had several of our character’s reactions…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint yeah yours was really cool!
Clone Wars style is kinda how I always draw, because I sort of learned to draw people by making a ton of Clone Wars/Bad Batch fan art.

Esther replied to the topic Help with a scene in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 1 month ago
I would encourage you to play around with it and see what you like. This is a first or second draft, so I wouldn’t worry too much about the POVs being in the right place.
But yeah, I really like what Calyhuge suggested. Sometimes you just have to write and figure it out as well. Definitely write from both POVs in this part of the draft, t…[Read more]

I know you’re not active rn, but I figured out why all my playlists weren’t showing on my Spotify profile, lol. So if you’re interested, you can see all my other playlists. 😊 -

@grcr @linus-smallprint @rae @ellette-giselle ok! I still don’t have my own drawing of the character, but my brother and I will judge each of your drawings on how close they were to our imagining of Feather!
They were all really good and really close to my thoughts. You all got the scar in the right place, too!

@linus-smallprint I don’t know. It’s just that you only talk about Alan and Tyn having a redemptive journey (although I suppose that’s only because they’re the main characters), and Alan literally just arrested a Christian couple for existing, so I thought if Alan becomes a Christian somewhere down the line, how accepting will Oliver be of that,…[Read more]

Yay!!!! I’m gonna go look!

YOU HAVE GREAT TASTE IN MUSIC
lol, thanks! 😊😜
And I’ll try to listen to your playlist as soon as I get the chance!!
Me and my “older brother” (not really my brother but we adopted each other as siblings XD) were just talking about Dear Younger Me! It’s so good! And sad :/
I THINK YOU GOT ME OBSESSED WITH LEANNA CRAWFORD OMC
Yes!!
LOL! Mwhahaha! 🤪 I love her music though!
WHY IS SHE SO UNDERRATED? IT’S SO GOOD!
Okay but HANNAH BARR….you should listen to her songs…I bet you’ll be obsessed with her too!
Oooh, I just did! They’re growing on me!
It’s a different sound, but I kinda like it!
I know! My favorites are probably P31, You Were There, I Am, The Search, and LOML, and When I Found You.
Yes! My favorite so far is P31
P31 is my THEME SONG
