Do you mind sharing what method you use to break down anatomy for drawings? Like how you construct bodies?

Sorry for the super delayed answer 😭 i'll try to be brief!

I start by locating the ribcage, hips, and head's ellipses and their central axis. Then i draw the torso, connecting the hips with the ribcage, and do a rough sketch of how the chest and shoulders should look like.

Then I add the limbs using cylinder like volumes, specifically i do the legs first and then the arms (tip: I do figure drawing and studies every now and then, that helps with visualizing the shapes/volumes in different angles). And lastly, I connect parts like the shoulders with the chest line to do the pectorals, the neck with the shoulders for the trapezius, and add details like fingers, collarbone, face.

A general rule i follow is that an average body (skeleton) is around 8 heads in height and 2 at it's widest points (shoulders/hips), so you can divide the body in halfs, quarters, and eighths. So: chin, chest/armpits, waist, pelvis floor, base of the knee, and feet soles become guides to measure and proportion the body. Elbows align with the waist and wrists with the pelvic floor.

I've successfully manifested my cavities fixed themselves!☝️

I have a huge phobia of the dentist and wanted these cavities gone and out of my life. I looked at my teeth that and had them before, and they're just POOF gone!! Literally only one remains and it's smaller than before

I literally could not be happier rn

I wanna see my husband soo bad

My husband being a goopy skeleton mam who feeds off of negativity. Specifically the version of him from the "Reeftale: Call of the Abyss" fanfiction cause why not

This is straight up just going to be a rant about things and my own insecurities. I'm not expecting anybody to actually read or respond to this, it's just for me to write my emotions down somewhere where I feel like it matters

First thing. I'm terrified of posting anything anywhere. I don't take criticism very well, and I'm scared of getting hate for things I talk about. When it comes to reality shifting things and my art.

I never post my art anywhere. Not because I think it's bad. I actually think my artwork is good. I beleove I'm good ag character design, and shading and all that. What I am insecure about is that I can't draw poses or anatomy whatsoever. I've tried and tried and I can never get it right, and I've been drawing for about 7 years or so. I always use a pose ref I find in pintrest to draw. I'm scared people will hate me for doing that, so I never post my art anywhere. I hardly even show my close friends my drawings.

Another thing, I think I act far to childish for my age. I'm gonna be 20 in a couple months, but I daydream and qander around my room and act like scenarios like a child would.

If I get interested in a topic or Fandom I make a self insert oc or character cause I wanna imagine I'm in whatever I'm focused on. I give these characters names I'd like being called, or multiple characters from diffrent shows/games/fandoms the same name cause I veiw these characters more as myself than a fictional character. I think this is pretty childish as well.

There are so many things I do that I absolutely hate about myself. Maybe voicing these things will make me feel better. Maybe I'll find some people who feel the same. Whatever. I just wanted to voice some things. I'm really not expecting anybody to interact with this shit show of a post.

I'm pretty sure I shifted twice recently. Just out of the blue. I'm excited about it but in the moment it was just normal and I didn't even question it.

It wasn't my dr but little differences. One night I woke up to ocean sounds playing on my TV when I was thinking about shifting to a mermaid/merfolk dr.

This one is a little embarrassed to admit cause its a bad habit. My vape had died, and i never plugged it up. I woke up in the morning, and it was at almost 50%, and i was so confused.

Edit: Happy to say now! I've quit vapping

they're here. fucking fuck they're here and there's already misinformation being spread. we need to hide.

welcome, shifttokers! we're glad you could join us, and we're happy to teach you anything you want to know! however, the community over here is a bit (vastly) different than it is on tiktok. so a few rules: 1: if you don't like it, scroll past it. if you notice this person on your dash a few times and you still don't like them, block them. there won't be hard feelings. you just don't like them. it's that simple; we're mature enough to handle it. 2: no one's d/r is 'wrong'. you can script anything at all into any universe at all. if you believe that someone can imagine a whole reality, build a d/r or w/r from scratch, but you don't believe they can script 'unnatural' stuff, like a loved one being alive or a pet living forever, then you need to reevaluate your opinions. 3: we listen and we don't judge. sometimes, you'll see people 'judging' each other, but that tends to be between friends (i.e. me and @shiftingwithmars about anything with ethan or me and @zipper-is-ranting anytime i mention the person i like in this reality). yes, some of us have hooker or sugar baby d/rs. some of us have severely traumatic d/rs. and it's not your place to tell another shifter what they can or can't do in their d/r. it's their d/r. you don't have to go. 4: learn about loa. please, please dedicate a little time to learning about the law of assumption, it's so so helpful when you're shifting.

having said all that, i really do hope that you can enjoy your time on shiftblr! it's a lovely community, and i really do think you'll enjoy yourselves here.

Yall I'm at work and I ordered a pizza to eat and when they called me overhead to let me know it was here they called Elene which is super close to my current dr name Like!!!

Im dying inside from excitment

Not me literally planning on getting my hair cut like I have in my dr soon, lol. It won't be the same color but the same haircut still

I found the image off of pintrest. I'm absolutely obsessed with wolfcuts

Yall, I'm still not 100% back into shifting, but I've gotten hyper fixated on Avatar and Pandora, and I want to be in the beautiful world, a lot more than I have any other place before. It just seems like it'll be such a peaceful place to be, minus all the war that happens in the movies. I'm not sure who I'll be or how I'll start my script for it, but I want to make one. I love the idea of shifting there

I haven't fully gotten my excitement back for shifting. My love and care for it seems to just have disappeared. Though I love the idea of shifting to undertale. Mostly because I think it's a nice place where I can be chill and not have to worry about anything eith some of my comfort characters

That's exactly what it feels like! I've tried to get excited about it but I just can't

I have no idea why but recently I've had no intrest in shifting. Like none at all. I don't think about any of my drs like at all anymore and I can't put my finger on why. It's frustrating and I can't tell if it's a good think I'm not obsessing or if It's a bad thing.

I'm not sure what else to say I usualy just rant on here

Yesterday was the first time I wasn't upset with waking up without shifting. I tried right after we got home from Watchung the eclipse. I was tired. When I feel a certain kind of tired, which might sound strange, I know I'm gonna have a lidic dream or at least a vivid dream, and I did! I didn't shift like I wanted, but I got to ser my s/o, and I woke up happy! I literally said "nice that's the first step to shifting!" And I just went about my day. I'm proud of myself and my growth

So in a different post I mentioned having relationship stuff and I was in one. He was a bit clingy and wanted to talk and hang out all the time and it took me away from shifting. It wasn't for me u didn't like thst I didn't seem to get space and for other reasons I ended jt.

Now, I can focus on shifting again, and it was a nice break. It think I needed to be at ease last night. I dreamt of my s/o, and it was lovely. I'm just scared off feeling suffocated in a relationship there even though I know I'll feel completely different their then I do here

Relationship stuff is so strange to me. I love thinking about being with my S/o. Cuddling, kissing, yk couple stuff. Thoigh when it happened to me here I get... weird.

I'm talking to a guy and he's super sweet. He's the first person who's actually treated me right and I'm not even sure if u like him the way he likes me. It's like I either get scared and want to run or I just don't have those feelings and I'm not sure I've ever had with people.

That's something I'm scared of for in my dr. Cause I love Simon. I do. And I know with the magic of shifting realities, I'll actually feel it because anything is possible. But for me here. It's not something I really experience. If any of that makes sesne

I'm really just using this app for ranting and writing down my thoughts. Sorry if that's annoying

My mental health has been really bad the past couple months and I feel like it's getting worse tbh. I want to shift. Not to just get rid of it like magic. So I can learn to work though it and heal myself in a safe way with someone I can lean on for support like I don't have here.

Just a tiny rant ig

I had a dream the other night about correcting people about my name. They kept calling my my cr name, so I told them, no my name is "Ena" which is my Dr name. It felt so weird being called that but I really liked it lol

I'm trying to think about more details for my call of duty dr which is my main Dr.

Things in trying to figure out is which part of England woild I live in? In my Dr I'm from Ireland thoigh my families moved to England when I was around idk between 6-14

I imagine my parents have g a farm in the countryside, and I'm loving in an apartment in a bigger town/city thoigh I know very little about England and would love some help lol

So I may have had a shift last night. Or a mini shift? Honestly I cannot tell.

I thought it was a dream, though in the middle of it, I became super aware of things going on around me. It was like it was in real life, but everything was darker, like my dreams are and kinda monotone.

The beginning of it is very foggy I don't remember much. The layout of the paled I was in was strange so I'm not going to explain that in detail. I was jn my room and I saw Ghosy and captain Price in thus building.

My memory had been wiped apparently, so I couldn't remember Ghost, who is my s/o

I was in my room and was looking around. I found my dog tags. Thought they didn't have my name or my Dr name idk what name it was tbh. It said I was Kia on the back of them which was strange.

I remember wanting to change my clothes and actually doing so, so it was so odd.

Omg I'd love to hear!!!

I genuinely need to talk more about shifting on here because I need more shifting friends and I'm lowkey depressed and want to feel better by getting to my Dr so I can be around my 6'4 military boyfriend who I want to use as a weighted blanket

Yes you do

For people on this website who have shifted, I would love to hear your stories and experiences. I haven't shifted myself, at lwast on purpose.

It's a cringy story ngl but it happened way before I even knew what shifting was, but I was super into lucid dreaming. So if anyone knows who markiplier is, you might have heard of darkiplier. I was shamlessly obsessed with him back then 😭. Like it was the kind of obsessed I wanted to get kidnapped by him so I could live my dream life. This was 7th grade maybe? Thank God that was close to six years ago now.

So one night I was sleeping in my floor because I was a maniac and thought the concrete floor in my bedroom was comfortable. In the morning u was woken up by someone picking my head up off of my pillow by my hair! It didn't hurt though. They just pulled my head up and I heard what I belive was supposed to be darkiplier say "it's time to wake up" 😭 of course I didn't listen. I looked, expecting to see someone's feet above my head and there was nothing, so I just went back go sleep.

It was hard to wrap my head around when I woke up. I literally thought it was a dream. I'm pretty sure I was awake, though.

I hate thinking back on my 7th and 8th grade years like, what was wrong with me? But this is when I think I shifted?

I got Brian and I felt seriously called out. I do often try to be funny because I want people to like me and hide my feeling from everyone except my best friends whom I'm closest too. i also have ADHD lol.And I often do feel like I'm the stupid one because of it. I feel like my ADHD causes me to be more childish in a bad way. I worry that if I don't make everything I do and say agree to whatever my friends like they'll hate or leave me. Ig I'm working on that ... Sort of haha 😅

You know it'd be absolutely crazy if you guys took my quiz and found out what Marble Hornets character you are. Then reblogged with your answers

Neurotypical writers giving advice: Be realistic with your goals. Try to outline or write a little every day. Refill the well. Get yourself a cup of tea and write for 30 minutes until the tea is empty. Check in daily with your accountability buddies for the next three to six months.

ADHD writers giving advice: Put on a movie that matches the tone of your novel to kickstart your dopamine and get into hyperfocus, then put a song on loop on noise-cancelling headphones, livestream your writing session so you feel watched and owe someone accountability, and write as much as you can for as long as you can. Don't forget to eat, sleep or drink. Now go write that novel in 5 days.

hi everyone! so for my first tip for shifting, i’m going to start off with something simple. pls remember that these may not work for everyone, i’m just sharing with what works for me. and also, remember you shouldn’t shift as an escape, but rather to learn and expand your knowledge.

so you might be anxious to shift, let’s say, harry potter, and your attempts haven’t been successful. well, the same thing happened to me. no matter how many times i tried, it just wouldn’t happen.

but then i thought “hm, why don’t i try something easier?” which at first, i really didn’t want to do. i just wanted to get to my dr. but this genuinely helped me after i tried it. i shifted to a field of flowers (with some visual help from pinterest, which i highly recommended). it was easy, calming, and gave me the confidence to shift to harry potter the next week. and guess what? it worked!

tldr: shift to somewhere simple first, like a lake, or a field of flowers. that doesn’t require too much planning (though you should always have a script ready) and doesn’t have a lot of components. instead of jumping into the deep end, wade your way through the shallower parts first :)

- love, a.p.

something to put into your script if you shift: no heartburn / acid reflux
