i'm trying to get into drawing anime like fanart. i'm a complete beginner.

do you guys have any tips/tutorials for me?

any references would do too. thanks!

    Maro maro April 12, 2020 11:20 am

    If you don't have history of drawing anime art style before, I suggest learning how to draw faces first. Then move on to hair. Then to body proportions. There are a lot of tutorials in YouTube for these.

    I also suggest to lay off colors for now and stick to black and white first. Color theory can be a bit messy for beginners.

    Make an album with your current level artwork. We can work from there

    I agree competently.


    I learned by first using references and trying out other peoples styles to get a hang of it before developing my own. Pinterest was a big help for me and I still use it when I need inspiration or just cant get something right. There are a lot of drawing references and tutorial photos there for drawing.
    Just do whatever works for you though.

    I'm trying to figure out face and hair right now. I'm having a bit of trouble with eyes and ears rn><

    No problem ^-^ I'm happy to help in any way.
    I proably wouldn't be to good at explaining how to use a reference properly or what exactly it means to use a reference, so I searched up a video that may seem helpful.

    If this doesn't really help, you could always look up 'how to use drawing references' in google or youtube and you would be able to find a lot of good advice. Better than what I could give you.

No cliches and no angst!
Something like Horimiya, Mizutama Honey Boy would be nice? But I am open to anything! Smut is okay too but that shouldn't be the whole plot lol
Thanksssss

eunhaelove December 8, 2018 11:44 am

Recommendations for yaoi mangas which have older lovers late 20s/30s/early 40s.
Should have an actual plot, preferably one where both parties are mature and get along well. Complete ones plz!

Ofcourse, it must be nice!

Love slow build ups and character growth! Must be a canon at the end.

Sooo my dumbass hasn't seen many Japanese dramas aside from the popular ones and I usually stick to my faves- Kazuya Kamenashi, Yamapi and Yuki Furkawa.
I recently watched Pride and DAMNNNN, Kimutaku is something else//swoons
I then watched Long Vacation and fell for the guy more
Recommend me which drama/movie of his to watch next! Nothing too angsty please. Would prefer it to be romance!

    Ishucaken August 4, 2018 12:11 am

    I've watched this drama before and it was super funny and sweet. But it's a old drama.. I believe early 2010 ish... The title is my boyfriend is a robot.. If I'm not mistaken

Please help me. I need a third person's opinion. This is a long post but I am really desperate and I can't talk to other people about this.

I have been in love with a person for over an year now. She lives in a different country, we are friends who talk on a daily basis. When I first realised I fell in love with her, I knew I was screwed. This is my first time liking someone even though I am in my early twenties.
From the start I had no hopes of getting together with her or even confessing. Nothing of that sort.
I just want to stay by her as a friend and like help her from the sidelines, being an emotional support and someone she can talk to?
But, I am an incredibly petty person and I get jealous even when I am not supposed to. And sometimes she is really mean and it hurts me so so much.
She is a person who doesn't express her feelings that much so she doesn't even pay compliments or other stuff like a good luck on my exam or things like that. I repeat, we talk on a regular basis.
Most of the time I am just afraid that I am just another person to her, even though she means so much to me(even without the whole I am in love with her deal).
I don't know what to do anymore, sometimes I hurt like crazy and I literally cry for a week. But on the other hand, I don't want to stop talking to her.
This is really messing up with my life and I am just clueless. I don't even want a romantic relationship out of this. Am I over reacting? Or am I acting too much like a clingy brat?

I posted in "things" but idk how that works><

    InsomniacEnigma November 13, 2017 8:38 am

    From what I am understanding with your situation is that you have strong feelings for her, but she doesn't know this?
    It's torturing for you, but since she doesn't know this, so she cannot be blamed for it.

    If you really cannot endure your current situation, then u have to move on or else you will become too depressed. From what I see, your choice is to confess or to give up your feelings.

    Confessing could lead to acceptance or rejection. I do not know much about how strong your relationship with her, so I cannot judge it. If you get accepted, then good for you. If you get rejected, there are lots of possible results; she may me the kind/ accepting type that stays friends with you (1), she could be the type that doesn't want to acquainted with ppl who confesses because of the awkwardness (2), or she could also be the type that brushes it off (3). There may be other results that I do not know, but those are some that comes from the top of my head.

    Basically, what I am saying is that you need to be prepared for the consequences of altering your current relationship with her if you confess. It will be very difficult to return from the way it was, but it is also not impossible.

    Think carefully about the scales here. You're hurting rn. If you take action, it could hurt and you could regret confessing, but time will continue and you could move on. If you stay the way it is, you are just delaying things and hurting yourself more, but at least you could be with her.
    Which is more important. Your relationship with a girl or your emotional state.

    I was in an unrequited love for 4 years. It was painful, but it is not impossible to move on. I have also met and spoken to people who had an unrequited love, but stood strong and became brave to get the right timing and do things that caused the other to fall for them.

    I am not sure how strong your feelings are, or what kind of person you are, or what kind the other person is, or strong your interactions and relationship are...but I want you to think carefully and put things in a scale and decide what you think is the best course of action is. I am a practical person, so I have this mindset, but I believe that this is better than panicking and getting confused.

    I wish you luck on whatever decisions you make, and what outcome happens to that decision of yours. In the end, I can only tell you that time is precious. How you use up that time is up to you. Hopefully, I made things clearer for you.

    I want you to think about the importance of your values, relationships, emotions, etc.

    If you don't confess or tell her your feelings then she doesn't know what you see in her and it's normal to be jealous. But if you just want to stay friends only then you shouldn't be worrying about who you are to her unless you want to be or in a long distance relationship.

    You have talked on a daily basis for over a year, and she does´t even wish u good luck on your exams... She seems like an indifferent person, sorry if that upsets you, I don´t know her, obviously, and I don´t mean to be rude, just my opinion based on your description. >.<

    There is an easy test you can to, stop talking to her daily and see what happens. I´m in a long distant relationship and it´s not easy, however communication is key, both parts have to make an effort. So, my questions to you, "Are you the one who always starts the conversation?" "Do you feel like you are making more effort then her to make the conversation flowing or going or something?"

    First of all, thank you for taking out time to read my long post and then sincerely replying and offering your advice. I am really grateful.
    Since she lives in a different country, there is really no chances of a relationship and I know she doesn't feel the same way about me and even if she did in the future it would be futile. So a romantic relationship with her was never my aim and neither it is.
    It's just that even friends can be special and I am not even sure if I am that or not ugh.
    But yes. Your advice has been great. And time is indeed precious. I will think about all the things you mentioned. Thanks a ton. It helped me out a lot><
    I had just been waiting to fall out of love but it's been too long so :(

    MinDmg November 13, 2017 10:16 am

    As a person that can kind of relate to her, I don't think it's a good idea to confess.
    I have a friend (who is also from India lol) who always listen to me when I complain/cry/ get hurt. He is the only place I can talk in without calculation of my words. He is a comfortable place for me.
    If you are not interested in romantic relationship then don't do something stupid that will make her lose her comfortable zone.
    Since she is insensitive to you she might hurt you alot and you might give more than you take but don't you think that might be enough for you too? You are needed by her. And she need you. Its not a romantic relationship but it is a deep relationship that is hard to get. Don't lose it.

    I can relate so much to this to a point I feel like you are talking about me lol. That is why I am saying this in her defence please try to understand her. She is not a perfect person as you may have seen in her past actions but she is just not good at expressing herself, and you are someone that can understand that, so don't make her lose you...

    MinDmg November 13, 2017 10:22 am

    Also it is okay to act clingy, that will make her feel loved and as for starting conversations! Some people are just bad at it so it doesn't matter if you or she started them first.
    Since you talk daily doesn't that mean you mean so much to her too? Even if she doesn't show it, I think she doesn't want to hurt you or cause pain to you.
    Try talking it through with her, sometimes a simple communication is enough to get it through to the other person

    I have never wanted to confess. I won't do that.
    She does hurt me. And I do give more than I take, bcuz she doesn't give anything more haha, atleast from my side of things. Is it enough for me? I don't think so. Bcuz if it was I wouldn't be in so much agony. I am not even trying to think of a things in a romantic manner. But as a friend. All that I have done and said was as a friend. But I sometimes feel that I am just another person to her? And that makes me hurt.
    I know she isn't perfect and I understand her. But isn't that too much to ask of me? When sometimes her careless words make me cry the whole night?

    Try this method I usually use when it's hard telling someone about themselves.
    The first method is telling them you got into fight with your other friend and when she ask why, tell her what she did to you as if that friend of yours done it. If shes not dense this way will work.

    Try this second method if she didn't ask you the reason, act like you are of no part of the situation and start talking hypothetically. Like "what do you think about girls that take a guy for granted and never intend on giving anything in return" or something like that.
    To her it will seem like a random conversation you are starting.
    But if she have a bit tiny bit of self reflecting she'll probably try to fix herself.
    That way you won't be the bad guy telling her to fix herself and she won't feel you are needy and troublesome to handle... Or so I hope :)

    Good luck I hope you feel better soon

    I feel you don't plan on confessing and want to stay as friends then that's fine but if it hurts too much to talk to her because of your feelings towards her then it's best to stop talking and let your feelings fade. I know it sounds easy but it's not, it depends on how much you really want to give up and not be hurt.

Sad thing is you can't force someone to love you when they don't, even if they act like it or say those words it's just an empty feelings and it will just hurt u more.

    You're welcome. Also, if they're meant or decide to be a part of your life then they will and I don't mean using you or coming towards you whenever they need help only but if they do use you then you should know the answer that they're not good to deal and it's a waste of time to have them in your life. I've been used and backstabbed by friends; especially family and I finally understand what it means to choose and trust people wisely because everyone has a mask on and will show their true colors later in life.

    It's true that you can't force someone to love you (except for those that develops stockholm syndrome), but it isn't impossible to make someone fall for you. It has a low chance, but it isn't entirely 0%. If you do things that will get them attracted to you or make it enjoyable for them, then it is possible for love to develop as well. However, if they are aware of your feelings, I believe that this will either lower or increase the chance of them falling for you (depends on every person)

    Though my statements would be considered theoretical, if you think logically, I believe that this is possible. Consider this, if you notice someone and become conscious of them, you will think of that person. Isn't that the same as a person in the stage of "getting interested" in a normal "I don't know if I like them or not" scenario? I am not saying that this is the absolute result, but this is in fact a possible scenario. So I believe that it is possible to make someone fall for you, as long as you make subtle efforts that leads the other to gain that emotion.

    But yes, if that person has absolute no interest in you - like if they hate you or if they like someone else or if you are simply not appealing to them...then I agree that it would be near impossible to make them fall for you.
    Again, it depends on every person.
