I Kinda Needed This, I Have And Usually Use Medibang For Drawlings So This Helps Me Have A Better Understanding

What's your opinion on writing from multiple perspectives? Like, one chapter would be from Bob's POV, and then the next from Shirley's, ect. Do you have any tips for this?

I love multiple POV stories! I really like when authors explore multiple characters and really give the readers a chance to take in the story from many perspectives.

Multiple POV stories work best when:

You have many plots. The more complex the story, the more information you need to feed the reader for the story to work. Sometimes it’s just not possible to get all that information through a single protagonist. Many protagonists, however, are better suited to learning all that information. Many protagonists - especially if they aren’t working together - are also better at screwing up plans and creating chaos. 

The plot is character-based. A character-based plot means the story deals more with internal struggles than external struggles. If your plot is character based, you really want to show the reader what all the major characters are feeling. Again, a single protagonist probably isn’t privy to everyone’s emotions.

Tips:

Your POV characters don’t need equal time. And when I say equal time, I mean in chapter time or wordcount time. Devote time to the most important characters and most important situations. Do as the plot demands, not as the character demands.

Don’t double up scenes. One of my least favorite moments in multiple POV stories is when the author covers an event with one POV character, then goes back to the beginning of the event to cover it again with another character. If you want another character’s perspective, let them remember parts of the event or revisit as little of the even as you possibly can.

Work on voice. You want to keep those characters as distinct as possible. They are different people, after all. I have a voice tag here to get you started.

Divide the POVs. Not with that awful fanfiction.net **KATNISS’ POV** paragraph starter. Divide POVs by chapter or put a little divider thingy in between POVs if you’re switching in the middle of a chapter. 

Keep track of information. Your POV characters will not know the same things because they live different lives and will be exposed to different situations. If your POV character suddenly knows something they shouldn’t, you’ll have a plot hole.

Try to avoid one-shot POVs. One-shot POVs are when a character gets one POV chapter, then no others. There’s nothing wrong with it, but it feels strange to hear from a character once and then no other times. 

The plots should interact. Even if the POV characters never meet, their plots should have a common element: for example, a common struggle, a common character, or a common theme. This prevents the story from becoming a collection of badly patched short stories.

SO CUTE!!!

some fav artists as ponies!

Let’s start with @sketchy-tour like I promise ✨(I’ll do more when the finals won’t kill me-)

And for @yunsed and with the character he simp that was made by @//eechytooru

And nice drawing for @cloudy-dreams ! I imagine her as the weather ponie that walks on clouds and the tiny ones are called “cloud babies that made by her magic! She use rain drops and clouds that are in the sunrise 🌅 and they follow her around until they grow us and help with the weather too like the wind 🌬 and stuff

Silly me as a shadow pony (for people that don’t know what my o’c is then it’s a shadow changer or like a smoke figure that can change to any animal or creature and they mostly live in forests or dark areas and they don’t bother anyone tbh they just lurking in the shadows ig lol

Plus! Try to do horror sketches for the first time Bc I want to learn to do horror stuff plus more kinds of skeletons (and Bc I watch too much pony infection AU’S! Lol)

ig not so bad for first time for spooky art

I hope I’ll post more after finals-

Agreed

So the only reason Gabriel made Marinette break up with Adrien is bc he knew he’d get good akuma bait. Ok fuck you. Thanks for the Marichat but still.

Fuck.

You.

The amount of ass Gabriel was to Adrien in this episode is just-

-Beating the ever loving shit out of him without an ounce of remorse

-No sympathy whatsoever after finding out he’s CN

-Uses his loving relationship to target his girlfriend (the amount of awful in this action specifically is just-I can’t even begin to-)

THEY WERE HAPPY GODDAMNIT

AND GORILLA NEEDS TO CALL CPS BC I KNOW NATALIE SURE AS HELL WON’T

When you made a new friend cuz you’re both anxious messes.

When I saw that door opening scene in TADC, and it reminded me of that scene in Courage the Cowardly Dog where Courage was opening doors and each doors had weird stuff behind it that traumatized the poor boi.

I have seen so many fanarts of Pomni and Kobeni but none with Courage who was one of the OG anxious cinnamon rolls.

We all feel that way about Doey I think we can agree with that.

Animation tips

Forgot I had these! These are redlines I did for Mathieu Hains (who animated the beautiful color segment). This was from his first blocking pass

Was a very good lesson in "why turnarounds and expression sheets are important" and "your boards will not always be interpreted by an animator the way you see it in your head"! All Mathieu had to go off of was my boards and the original character sheets (VERY limited reference haha) but he's also a great artist so he created a very solid foundation and my redlines were just to help guide the drawings to what I imagined
