Top 5 Avatar (ATLA/ALOK) characters?

When i tell people that Avatar: The Last Airbender is in my top 3 tv shows of all time they just don’t get it. They’re all like

and i’m all like

TOP. THREE. Of alllllll time. Out of every single tv show i’ve watched i rate it as the third best. There’s only 2 other tv shows i rater higher (Buffy, Red Dwarf).

A “kids” show has absolutely no right to be that good. I’ve said that before many times but i’m not wrong.

The world building is A+. The characters. The story.

JUST WATCH IT YA HEATHENS!

ANYWAYS!

NUMBER FIVE!

SOKKA

Has no powers but can still hold his own. He starts out as a bit of a clownshoe but matures. Kind of. And he’s smarter than he lets on. He’s like the batman of their gang tbh. Kind of.

NUMBER FOUR!

KATARA

She has to mature fast due to things and stuff. She’s the driving force of team Avatar.

NUMBER THREE!

ZUKO

Greatest redemption arc in any tv show or film ever. The only thing that could have topped this is if they made another season or two and Azula got her redemption arc (it was planned).

NUMBER TWO!

TOPH

She might be blind but it doesn’t stop her being the greatest earthbender of all time. She’s also very sarcastic. And a total badass. TBH it was close between her and Zuko. They can have joint second place.

NUMBER ONE!

UNCLE IROH!

Not only is he the best Avatar character but he’s also one of the best fictional characters of all time.

Fucking some dude tries to mug him and he’s all ‘you cannot mug people with that stance’ and he disarms him and then shows him a better stance and THEN sits the guy down and gives him some tea and sorts his life out for him.

BUT there was more to him than wise words and tea. Dude was also known as The Dragon of the West. Absolute badass motherfucker.

And the episode that gif is from. I can guarantee you’ll cry when you watch it.

tl’dr: watch Avatar: The Last Airbender or i’ll come to your house and punch you in the lungs.

Shout out to Azula (great bad guy). She would have been 6th.

Spot on!

I thought the whole point of the Punisher vs Bullseye comic was Lester throwing prep to Castle all day long. Also Greatest Hits.

These two know everything about each other. By some greater mean they are pitted against each other in a city unknown to them. Who would win? The Joker vs Bullseye ?

Here’s Bullseye attacking 2 of the best martial artists in the world (Daredevil and Elektra) and one of the best assassins in the world (Black Widow, who is also not too shabby in the hand to hand department) plus a novice white tiger.

He then fights with Elektra. Then Elektra AND Daredevil. And when they still cannot beat him he cheeses it and he ends up getting hit by a bus which finally puts him down.

there’s absolutely ZERO chance of some clown beating Bullseye. Bullseye could kill him with a toothpick. A shoe. A tic tac. A bit of fingernail. A tooth. And if he was bored enough he could simply beat joker with his feet and hands because he’s lethal as fuck. It doesn’t matter if they know all about each other. This is a fight not a quiz.

Bullseye 100/100

REBLOG IF YOU WILL FINISH YOUR WIP WHETHER THE WORLD WANTS YOU TO OR NOT GOD DAMN IT

NOTE: one type of fold will rarely appear on its own - they interact with each other quite a bit! for example, spiral folds might define the outline of a pant leg, while the interior folds might be zig-zag folds.

i’m trying to re-learn how to draw clothing, so i made this little guide to the most common shapes of folds that appear. hope it helps someone else too!

Saludos mis queridos lectores 

ok, en el mundo del comic, el humor gráfico, o mejor aún, en el arte en general; es frecuente y bastante entendible que existan coincidencias creativas. En un mundo tan grande, es de esperar que en ocaciones dos artistas coincidan en el mismo concepto. Pero lo que si me parece un acto vergonzoso y bastante patético es que alguien en este caso las personas de @Gymqueen.de  tome tu idea original tal cual como la concebiste (al menos hubieran cambiado algo, asi al menos se vería un minimo afan de disimular su cinismo)   y lo reproduzca para llevarse el credito y lucrarse del trabajo ajeno. Esto mis queridos lectores es una muestra indignante de la falta de respeto que tienen algunas empresas por el trabajo del artista o del afan que tienen algunos por conseguir fama con el minimo efuerzo, esto, mis queridos lectores es una situacion que no debe continuar.

Hello my dear readers 

ok, in the world of comics, graphic humor, or better yet, art in general; It is frequent and quite understandable that there are creative coincidences. In such a large world, it is expected and likely that two artists concur on the same concept.But what I find a shameful and quite pathetic act is that someone, in this particular case the people of @Gymqueen.de, take your original idea as you originally conceived it (at least they would have changed something, so you would see a minimum eagerness to disguise their cynicism) and reproduce it to take the credit and profit from the work of others. This my dear readers is an outrageous sample of the lack of respect that some companies have for the artists work or the thirst that some have for achieving fame with the minimum effort, this, my dear readers is a situation that should not continue.

So what, P!nk The joker, Puddle of mud Carol of the bells, Trans siberian orchestra Galilea, Sergio dalma Devorando el corazon, Warcry Hutsul girl, Ruslana Dance with wolves, Ruslana Wild dancers, Ruslana Seven angels, Avantasia Plan 1509, Toshihiko sahashi

Scammer Targeting Tumblr Artists

The title says it all really. So if nothing else, please share and reblog this post to raise awareness for those that might be caught out - both artists and followers. For a TL:DR, please look at the bottom of the post

What is happening?

Right now, there is at least one person actively impersonating multiple artists across tumblr in an effort to scam their followers into paying for fake ‘cheap commissions’. The scammer will clone a tumblr, usually using a slight change to the url/account name to look like the real deal. They will then message people directly through Tumblr with messages along the lines of “Hey, i’m doing cheap commissions right now. DM me to get one”. Naturally, this is ends up just being a way to take their money without giving anything back in return.

Who does this affect?

Everyone. Simple as that. As long as the scammer in question works unopposed, they are free to spread their influence and continue to scam more people. Even if you haven’t been targeted yet, it does not mean you are safe or immune. Several artists have already fallen victim to this scammer, and I encourage any artists that have to reblog this post with the details of their affected account(s) and the ones the scammer has set up.

How can we stop this?

Tumblr, like many other social media platforms, seems to care very little about ‘minor’ occurences like this one, and despite reaching out directly to them over a week ago through multiple avenues of contact - they have refused to comment on the situation, provide a recommended response for users, or take action on behalf of those already affected. Despite this, there are still tools at our disposal that we can use to make this scam more difficult, and to increase its visibility to those within Tumblr staff that are required by policy to take action. Tumblr has the following to say on the topic of impersonation: Confusion or Impersonation. Don’t do things that would cause confusion between you or your blog and a person or company, like registering a deliberately confusing URL. Don’t impersonate anyone. While you’re free to ridicule, parody, or marvel at the alien beauty of Benedict Cumberbatch, you can’t pretend to actually be Benedict Cumberbatch. They then provide a link to this online form that you can fill out if you suspect someone’s identity is being confused. Unfortunately, this can only be filled out if you are the victim of impersonation. In other words, only the artists can fill this out legitimately. So, what about the followers and users of tumblr whom aren’t being impersonated? Our most valuable tool in this online platform is the platform itself. It enables us to spread our word near-virally across all the many sub-communities on Tumblr with remarkable efficiency for a user-driven system. We can take advantage of that effect to increase awareness of the situation. Even if you - the one reading this right now - aren’t an artist or don’t know an artist, the act of reblogging this post or sharing it directly with friends improves it’s ‘ranking’ in popularity increasing its chances to be seen by more people. We don’t need everyone on Tumblr to see the post for it to be effective, just like we don’t need the entirety of the human population of the world to be immune to a disease for that disease to be rendered ineffective or eradicated. If enough people are aware, the likelihood of pulling off a successful scam increases dramatically reducing efficiency to a point that it no longer becomes profitable to continue.

Why should I care?

It disheartens me to say this, but of the many artists I contacted directly over the past week to warn about this issue many of them refused to listen or dodged the responsibility with lines like;

“I’m not being impersonated, so it doesn’t affect me”

“I’m just one person. I can’t make an impact”

“I need to take care of my community. Other people can look after theirs”

This is honestly disappointing that so many artists or art-rebloggers care so little as to intentionally wave the responsibility of keeping their followers and fellow artists safe from this, that they cannot spare 10 seconds of their time to share an informative post. I’m not here to bash artists, but it is time that everyone takes responsibility for their own communities, and of those around them. Artists: You have a responsibility to ensure that your followers and fans aren’t being abused by someone who may impersonate you. If they succeed, your reputation will be damaged, and your followers will resent you. Your followers are also almost guaranteed to be following other artists meaning your efforts can spread beyond your own circle of influence, so don’t be naive when you think you have little effect. Followers: You have just as much responsibility to be aware of those that might try to scam you or your fellow followers. Don’t just sit in silence when you see something wrong: Ignoring the issue only makes it more resilient to our efforts to stop it. You are the vocal majority if you just use your voices to be heard!

TL:DR

A scammer is impersonating artists and scamming money from their followers under the guise of ‘cheap commissions’. If we ignore the issue, it will get worse. Every single person that reads this can afford to spend just 10 seconds to reblog and share this post. Those 10 seconds can save others from being scammed for hundreds of dollars. Reblog & Share

THUNDER THURSDAY #83: Book Requests, and a Tutorial Question!

Hey folks, Paul here for THUNDER THURSDAY! Today marks one month since the book came out–I’ve been thrilled with the journey so far, and I’d love to keep the momentum going!

Now, about tutorials!

While I enjoyed compiling the TUTOR TUESDAY PDFs, I know it’s been a hot minute since we had new tutorial content to share. Meg (@rawranansi), our tutorial mastermind, has been super busy with work! So I wanted to ask:

Would you be interested in animation tutorials for OpenToonz?

OpenToonz is an open source (which means ethically free!) 2D animation software, and I’ve been learning it myself since I started using it for the book trailer this past summer.

It’s a powerful program, though the interface definitely takes some getting used-to. I’d love to share what I’ve learned, especially since the program’s available for all!

If you’re interested, let me know. Comments and reblogs are much appreciated! Thanks, Paul

I know a lot of you guys don’t want to reblog those posts about the wildfires in Greece because they’re too long, so I figured I would make a shorter post for y’all. 

Here is a link on how to help and what the current situations are, and here is a direct link to the fundraiser.

As someone who has personally been affected by fire, I would really appreciate if y’all could sb this??
