And they didn't grow out of it by then?

People grew out of it. But it was always there. Lurking.

In my experience the casual Catholics, as in those who simply say they're Catholic but don't do anything such as pray, read the bible or go to Church tend to be fine with people being LGBT. Anyone who is part of a church though tends to go the whole "It's a sin" route.From what I heard in a Pride Club last year, FckH8 also tends to hate anyone who identifies as anything other than Gay or Lesbian.

I actually go to church pretty much every Sunday. Of course, I myself am pansexual. I know a lot of devout Catholics (usually the teens and younger ones) who are okay with whoever. There's a little boy who altar serves who has two dads.

Yeah, FckH8 is shitty and I hope they go bankrupt. (They're not even non-profit, they are run by a T-shirt company.)

Alright, I was doodling last week, and this was what I ended up with. :p (It's rather PMMM inspired, by the way.) I know the arm / elbow in particular looks a little weird, as well as the placement of the hand, but I don't really know how to fix it. Could I have some help with that, if possible? Also, do you guys have any advice on how to move from a more anime-ish style to a more semi-realistic style? I'm tempted to switch, but don't really know how.

Ooh! I can help! A big thing to do is to just start drawing from life as much as possible. Look at some good reference photos and study them, look at the people around you (without being creepy haha) and see how their bodies move, twist, stretch and relax. I think a big issue with switching over to semi/realism is the faces and other such details. A problem with me, evident in my sketches, is faces. I would love to go for a comic book-y sort of realism but, alas, I am awful with faces that don't look deformed or make my people look like a bunch of ridiculous no-lip fish monsters. Anime doesn't particularly switch up proportioning as far as the figure, so just keep in mind that limbs and the body looks vastly different dependent upon body type, angle and positioning and the transition body-wise might not be too bad.

Also to fix that elbow/slightly short arm! The elbow typically goes down to the navel, which in turn is about in the center of gravity, or the middle of the abdomen. If you have any other issues that you can't quite place as far as anatomy or posing, look in a mirror or look down at yourself. If there's someone else with you, you might be able to ask them to pose. You are one of your most convenient references! So long as you aren't a little person or have other such major variations in proportioning, feel free to use yourself for quick little ideas of what a pose/figure should look like.

I would love to join this, I feel like it'd be good motivation for me to improve myself. C: I can also offer up critique, despite being some inexperienced little high school art student.

Here's a few older pictures from around the beginning of the summer, I've improved mildly in anatomy and posing but I still have a while to go. I'll try to get up fresher drawings once I can get a hold of them! (Forgive the crappy, enormous phone pictures. :,0 )

Need suggestions for dragons

I've been thinking maybe of doing a metal dragon and a crystal dragon. Would that be a good idea?

If so, then crystal, by its nature, is based in ionic bonds. (Most crystals, if high school chemistry has taught me anything.) Crystals actually grow in very predetermined paths, so crystal would be interesting as far as order. Perhaps emotion for chaos, like what Alpha suggested.

Hello! Sorry, I'll keep working on my post this weekend.

Let's Take a Break

Yeah, I'm just gonna chill for a while. I have a problem with getting all riled up over these kinds of things. Figure I could throw some dirt on the fire before scurrying off, though. :T

How do the premises I stated not entail the conclusion?And, I outright stated the premises may be false, but one must be or premise 4 must be.

I wasn't objecting to the premises and the possibility of them being false, I was objecting to the contention and how it could not be the determiner of whether or not those premises are false. Look, does this really matter anyways? On a different platform I may encourage this debate but it's kind of melting down into just a shouting match. There are some who genuinely care about the issues and others who just want to be right, and it's not a good, constructive combination. I hate to be the one to tell people to calm down when it comes to important, emotional issues to discuss such as this but I can see this thread becoming like the Ferguson one very quickly. Regardless, this thread was started because people wanted to discuss and debate the video in first post and the possible interpretations. Nothing to do with what has happened now. If you really, really want to argue, either get back to the topic at hand or go to a separate thread.

I'm on a classic movie marathon.

Does Hello Dolly count as a classic? I love musicals. (Also Rocky Horror Picture Show)
