My MEGA ART REFERENCE post

I mostly use my tumblr as a library of references, inspirations, and others that help me with my work. I figured others might want to use it that way too? Here are my tags on my tumblr where you can find them.

Inspiration - This is the biggest one and it’s filled with mostly things that inspire me. Maybe some of it will inspire you too.

Reference - It’s filled with tutorials, references, rooms, poses, and objects I need references from. The 2nd biggest. It’s a catch all.

Then there’s the tags that pinpoint a thing I need:

Poses - Take poses from real life, other works, sports, selfies, or fashion blogs. It will help your people look more interesting than just standing around.

Men - I have trouble drawing them so they get their own tag.

Color - tutorials on how to color your work, as well as color themes, color palettes and work who’s choices or use of color are amazing.

Lighting - How to and inspiration on using lighting in your illustrations, rooms, etc.

Fashion - Get inspired by clothing and mix and match outfits for your people. 3rd biggest tag on my tumblr. Although, a lot of it is my style you might get some inspiration from them.

Rooms - If you need to draw a room to place your characters in, here you go. Reference a room! It also has tutorials to draw rooms or things in a room. Also, kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, libraries, fictional rooms, vintage rooms, themed rooms, closets, kids rooms, adult rooms, hotel rooms, minimalist and maximalist rooms, etc.

Hands - Hands are hard. This will help.

Feet - Feet are hard too.

Body - Lots of tutorials on drawing bodies with some references for different body types. Some are also under bodies.

Hair - Give me lots of hair. Long beautiful hair! As well as black hair, short hair, POC hair, braids, afros, all sorts of hair reference and tutorials on drawing hair!

Expressions - You faces need a mood, so use this. I also made a handy chart for reference here! May also be under Expression.

Inking - Cool inks.

Composition - Mostly cool comics and illustrations as well as composition tutorials.

Perspective - For perspective. I also recommend Amy Reeder’s Perspective in Storytelling on tumblr!

Storyboards - Storyboard help!

Props - A newer one with props to draw.

Important - Not just art stuff but mental health too.

Background / Backgrounds / nature / cities / buildings = all inspiration for backgrounds

Layout - mostly comic page layouts

I hope this helps you on your art journey like does mine!

Important rules/tips I've learned as an adult that helped with anxiety

If people are mad at you, it's their responsibility to tell you, not your responsibility to guess

If they're mad at you in secret anyways, they're the ones in the wrong, not you

If people don't like what you're doing, it's their responsibility to tell you

If they say it's fine when it's really not, they're the ones in the wrong, not you

People are allowed to be wrong about you

If they are wrong about you, wait for them to bring it up, because if you try to, you will inevitably overcorrect

Some people are committed to misunderstanding you. You will not win arguments against them. Yes, even if you explain your point of view. They do not care. Drop it

The worst thing that will happen from a first-time offense is being told not to do it again. Maybe with a replacement if you broke something

You can improve relationships and gauge willingness to talk to you by giving compliments. It's like a daily log-in bonus and nobody thinks twice about it

Most things are better after you sleep on them

Most things are better after you have a meal

Most things are better after you shower

Your brain makes up consequences that are irrational. If the worst DOES come to pass and someone acts like they do in your head, they are overreacting, and you are entitled to say "what the fuck"

If your chest hurts after you feel like you've made a social error, that's called rejection-sensitive dysphoria. It means your anxiety is so bad that it's causing you physical pain, which is a good indicator that you're overreacting. Tense yourself, hold it for 20 seconds, let it go, then find a distraction

If you're suddenly angry at someone after you feel like you made a social error, that's also rejection-sensitive dysphoria. You are going to feel annoyed about it for awhile, but being genuinely pissed off is your anxiety trying to find something to blame to take the responsibility off your shoulders, and getting scared because it can't justify itself. Deep breaths, ask yourself how much you ACTUALLY want to be angry at that person, then find a distraction

"Sour grapes" is more healthy for you than stewing. Deciding you don't like someone who's perpetually annoyed with you, won't talk to you, etc. makes letting go of anxiety over them easier

If people don't like you, they will find reasons to be annoyed with you when they otherwise wouldn't. If people do like you, they will find reasons NOT to be annoyed with you when they otherwise would. People do not ping-pong between the two

You DO have to make a conscious choice not to think about something. If you're having trouble circling back to it, say out loud that you're done thinking about it and why. Then find a distraction

When you're upset, part of you is going to want to make false bids for attention (suddenly texting differently, heavy sighs, etc. but when someone asks you about it, you tell them it's nothing). Do not listen to it. You gain nothing from it except more misery

People like to help people they care about. It makes them feel good about themselves

If you think you're insufferable for needing help, see above. Yes, really. They get a serotonin kick from it

If you think you're insufferable for mannerisms you have, you either have to consciously choose not to do them, or accept that they're part of the package that comes with you. Being apologetic about existing does nothing except make you more miserable

If you do things you don't like when you feel meh about it, it makes it easier to do them when you hate it

If you avoid things you don't like when you feel meh about it, it reinforces and magnifies how bad it feels when you hate it

Seriously. Read those last two points again. If you can make yourself make a phone call when you've got nothing to lose, you will slowly lose that panic you get when you have to make a phone call you haven't prepared for. You do have to CONSCIOUSLY take that step

Hobbies that make you care for something get rid of that nagging feeling that you're not doing enough. Go grow some rosemary

If you don't engage with your hobbies regularly, you will feel miserable, and anxiety will spike

Hobbies are things that give you a bit of happiness. They do not have to be organized or named to do that. Go be creative in something. Play with coins. Make up lists. Start a new WIP

No one cares what you look like

If people point out things they don't like about how you look unprompted, they are being rude. You are entitled to say "what the fuck"

People who like you will find you pretty to some degree. Minor things about your appearance go completely unnoticed. Literally, scars and dots and blemishes do not register to someone who likes your company

You looking at yourself in the mirror is 10x more closely than anyone is going to look at you

If you're anxious about your body type, and you're creatively inclined, make/write an oc with that same shape. Give them nice things and make other characters love them. Put them on adventures. You'll start to see yourself in the mirror more kindly

You care about wording and perfect lines/colors way more than anyone who views your work ever will

Sometimes when you're upset, you're going to feel like not eating. Do not do that. Not eating makes you more miserable

Same with things you normally enjoy. Denying yourself helps no one. You are punishing yourself for being sad. Stop it

Both of these will take conscious decision to break the habit of. Make yourself do it anyways, and it will slowly get easier

And again, to reiterate: If someone is mad at you, it is THEIR responsibility to tell you, not your responsibility to guess

🚨 Your Donations Are Our Lifeline 🚨 We Need Your Support Now More Than Ever

We are Anas and Ahmad Basil, along with our family of eight, from Gaza. I, Anas, am 18 years old and a high school graduate with a 93% average. My brother Ahmad, 14, is a talented mathematician known as "Doctor of the Future." Despite our big dreams for the future, we are currently struggling to survive amidst the devastating effects of war.

Today, our priority is no longer our dreams 😔— it’s ensuring our family’s survival amidst the harsh living conditions and severe scarcity of resources 💔.

Why This Campaign Matters Now More Than Ever: ⁉️ The ongoing war has stripped us of stability, access to basic necessities like food and water, and the opportunity for education. It has destroyed our livelihoods, taking away our jobs and sources of income, leaving us unable to rebuild or support our loved ones. We now face unimaginable hardships, entirely dependent on donations to meet our needs. With the soaring cost of living and severe shortages of resources, even basic survival has become an overwhelming challenge.

Your support is crucial to help us endure these conditions. This campaign is no longer just about escaping Gaza — it’s about keeping our family alive and healthy until we can find a way out.

Your generosity can make the difference between survival and despair for our family.

Every donation, no matter how small, keeps hope alive for us.

With all our gratitude, Anas & Ahmad
