You Know What Kills Me? Silco Was Right, In A Way.

You know what kills me? Silco was right, in a way.

At the tea party he says he would never give Jinx up to the enforcers (and we know that's true) and that after a day with Jinx, Vi would realise she's not the same girl she was before and abandon her again.

And he's right, she does. She abandons Jinx and leads the enforcers to her as soon as she realises how different Jinx is.

Now that's not to say it wasn't at least partly justified. If my sister was a mass murderer and I saw her explode my girlfriend's mam, I don't think I'd stick around. Cops still suck but, y'know.

It just kills me how truthful Silco's words are.

Pose Reference Resources

I promised Dia (aka aerequets) that I will make a collection of pose references in the reply of one of her art posts, and then I completely forgot about it. Until now. I'm sorry for my bad memory.

So, yeah, better late than never I guess?

The pose collection I use the most is no longer free. They used to let you download a whole album (more than 8GB worth of data) to use offline, but now you have to pay $40/package or $200 for full sets. I still have the zip file for a very old version of theirs, but I can't legally share it. So, let's skip to the other options.

1/ First, you heard of those 3D dolls program that let you model your own reference pose? This one is an online one and for free, the whole ordeal. Of course since it's online and free, you can't save your model for next time, and it costs quite a lot of time to set the model up. So, you should take as much screenshots in as many tricky angles as you need once you done with the setting. Best using for complicated scenes where those below don't have what you need already available.

2/ This one is free and in 3D, you can rotate the model to any angle that you need. The only set back is the numbers of poses are quite limited. This one is best for using as a basic blocks then build up what you want to draw, or just as a practice to improve your understanding of human anatomy.

POSEMANIACS - Royalty free 3d pose reference for all artists

Posemaniacs.com is a royalty free pose reference for all artists. Our mission is “to create free learning materials for all people who want

3/ This one is free for personal uses and the pose collection is massive. The setbacks are the language barrier (it's in Japanese, English is sometimes tag-a-long) and you have to search through their pages for what you need. The pics for each pose is static but they are in different angle in almost 360 degrees. There are many 2-person and 3-person poses too. Great for illustration inspiration.

4/ This one will only show reference photos of human head, at whatever angle you rotate the model. The web interface is easy to use. There are options like searching based on gender, ages, emotions, glasses, facial hair or not, etc. Good for practicing face drawing.

5/ This one will show reference photos for human body parts, at whatever angle you rotate the model, read the instructions for how to do it. The web interface is quite hard to use at first, just tinkering around for a bit, and you will be fine. There are options like searching based on gender and which particular parts that you need refs for. Good for that moment when you go "huh? how is this <body part> will look in this <situation>????"

6/ This one will only show reference photos of animal heads, and only the head, at whatever angle you rotate the model. The accurate skull refencence list is their best point. There are enough common species in the drop down list. Tbh, I don't use this much because I often need refs for the whole animal most of the time. But it's best for furry artists, I guess?

7/ Real model photos. They sell pose reference in themed packs, but there are enough free packs to use as drawing practice too.

8/ This is the best for general background reference. Lots of options. Not really good for very specific location results, but good for random background in drawings.

VIShopper is the creator and distributor of cutouts and textures for architectural visualization. Our products include cut out people, cut o

9/ Lastly, for specific objects or background references at strange angles, I often search for 3D models on this site then take screenshots of whatever I need.

Sketchfab

Sketchfab - The best 3D viewer on the web

With a community of over one million creators, we are the world’s largest platform to publish, share, and discover 3D content on web, mobile

That's all, folks. Hope this list can help ease some of the struggles that we will encounter on our quest of learning the art of drawing things 😂

Jinx did many fucked up things:

Tying up Sevika, literally exploding Ekko or shooting that poor crow :(

But attacking the council is not one of those bad things. Those people killed her parents! They are not innocent, they are in power. They have been oppressing Zaun and powder/Jinx even before she was born.

Jinx didn’t attack innocent civilians, unlike Caitlyn, Vi and the enforcers.

Caitlyn suffered once in her entire life and went crazy. But you expect Jinx to suffer every single day for years and just be calm and chill?

Fuck no! Off with their heads!
