➡️ Content warnings on fiction are a courtesy.
➡️ Not every medium of fiction and storytelling has or is expected to have content warnings or extensive tagging.
➡️ Print novels do not traditionally warn for content in any way.
➡️ Until AO3 came along, fanfiction did not traditionally warn for content in any significant way.
➡️ An author is only obligated to warn for content to the degree mandated by the format they publish their fiction on.
➡️ Content warnings beyond the minimum are a courtesy, not an obligation.
➡️ 'Creator chose not to warn' is a valid tag that authors are allowed to use on AO3. It means there could be anything in there and you have accepted the risk. 'May contain peanuts!'
➡️ Writers are allowed to use 'Creator chose not to warn' for any reason, including to maintain surprise and avoid spoilers.
➡️ 'Creator chose not to warn' is not the same thing as 'no archive warnings apply'.
➡️ It is your responsibility to protect yourself and close a book, or hit the back button if you find something in fiction that you're reading that upsets you.
➡️ You are responsible for protecting yourself from fiction that causes you discomfort.

if you like strawberry shortcake or care bears, please consider buying something from the original creator and designer, Muriel Fahrion! she NEVER got paid royalties for creating/designing strawberry shortcake and care bears to this day. huge franchises that have profited off her work for over 40 years.
she went through incredibly tough times as an artist and went into debt after her husband died. in 2019 she started being more public on social media about being the original creator of these iconic characters. despite everything, she still loves strawberry shortcake and spreads nothing but kindness and positivity on her instagram (everyday she always posts a daily video of her dancing in her kitchen :) she’s so full of joy) it would mean a lot if you supported her and bought something cute from her website!

Giving myself an color palette challenge with my oc
here a reference sheet of one of my character Snow the Snow leopard please note that medical armband doesn't stand for Snake medical care
Nyher the Unicorn- god of medicines, herbs, and guidance is one of the four gods to survive the last incident created by Ash. one of their specialties is to make medicine from natural growth herbs without causing extinction of the plant itself. thought out history, they're well-known as the flamboyant gardener or nature's flamboyant guardian. along with tales of the god's willingness to help the sick within the mortal realm in a form that doesn't bring fear to these seeking their medical help and guidance especially children. after the incident Nyher lived and hid amongst the mortal population helping those mostly affected by Ash's actions. along with giving medicine.
------
Elir The Crow- God of Death and Underworld, lover and one of the ruler duo with Xuhdis doesn’t like being involved with moral conflict and one of the surviving gods like Nyher, his lover, Eanh, and Itris known as The Hade type within the old gods. serious and keep to himself.
-----
Xuhdis The Raven- God of guiding lost soul to the afterlife, between living and dead, lover and one of the ruler duo with Elir sympathetic towards the innocent souls who enter his and his partner's realm too soon. disagree with how some cultures portray him.
-----
Itris The Cat- God of trickery and Deceive portray as a fox in some tales the tricker god can fool anyone who are foolish enough to fall in his trap. the other gods didn't trust him around sensitive topics and discussions. currently captured by Ash as his prisoner/trophy. Trying to convince Ash to let him free even tho he has an part of his dictorship
-----
Eanh The Owl- God of Knowledge hid among the mortal population pretending to be a normal owl running a privately owned (and few shadow) library for the public to learn some knowledge. along with the helping Nyher at time.
-----
Their region currency is Seaglass (common to rare by color & size) common 1 dollar, uncommon 5-10 dollar, rare 20-45 dollar, and extremely rare 50-100+ dollar (if you count inflation)
-----
Shadows and Blacklists markets run by individuals, private owners, and communities are common due to the strict laws and regulations but they get often shut down or raided by the law enforcement
-----
The Elites (rich/wealthy class) are calling the shoots and are allowed to have illegal items if their leader isn't in a bad mood. They either gain their wealth from illegal and legal activities (like "Sickdog"), gerenational wealth within the family, or new money
-----
Moonlight hidden/removed their last name as a form of protection of their family from the corrpurt loyalist of Ash's lapdogs, while Snow removed his legal last name to have no more contact/connection towards his biological family
-----
Everyone in Moon's small group of a team/closed knited friendship-family bond all have codenames expect her due to her name being on public legal records and paper from a international police burst on illegal sex industry business that was breaking international laws that she was a victim to.

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.
Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.
📺Here is my list:
Proko (Free)
Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard)
Aaron Rutten (free)
BoroCG (free)
Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)
Jesus Conde (free)
Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)
Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price)
SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)
Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)
The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney)
Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)
Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.
📚Here is my list:
The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.
"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.
"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.
"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.
"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.
"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.
"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.
"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.
"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.
Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.
As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are more expensive.
For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.
💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.
Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates)
Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)
Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)
PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)
Krita (Free)
mypaint (free)
FireAlpaca (free)
Libresprite (free, for pixel art)
Those are the ones I can recall.
So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.
I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.
Hope this was helpful and have a great day.
