Hi! I'm Meg! My full time storyboard gig supports my chronic comic and OC making habit. I draw a lot of beefy dudes, monsters, and wall crawly guys. I'm working on a comic pitch packet, and many (too many) other things.

Find links to all my stuff here: linktr.ee/MegSyv

I'm so tired... But for once I have a fun chore to do. Thank you to my patrons whose support covers expenses like this one when they come up
Bad News: my PC of ~10 years is now terminally crashing when trying to run files of a certain size.

Good News: I get to order a new computer tomorrow.

Bad News Again: it's 2:30 am and getting work done is a devil's gamble every time I open my storyboards

Put very, very simply: "the further things are from the camera, the closer they are to each other."
Our feature artist/tutorial today is this great page on FORESHORTENING ARMS AND HANDS, by the talented @miyuliart! Always keep in mind that the MID POINT of an object ALWAYS SHIFTS BACK when foreshortened - meaning we see FAR MORE of the volumes CLOSEST to us! #anime #manga

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow beleaguered Americans!

As we live through (dare I say) such a historic time, it's vitally important to actively remind ourselves of the things that bring relief and brightness to our lives that make them worth living. I hope everyone reading this has a wonderful day!

Also I saw a lot of portfolios where you have to click through boards frame by frame. This is the worst, I HATED these portfolios, they are slow and uncomfortable to review. Give me a sheet with a bunch of drawings at once, or give me a timed .mov so I don't get carpal tunnel trying to see your work
I'll add, if you are looking for Storyboard work, don't call yourself a Revisionist in your bio. I had to hire for something recently and I can tell you right now yours were the accounts I passed over without even a glance, it makes you look inexperienced. Dress for the job you want, folks.
Evergreen advice for new artists, remove "Aspiring Artist" or whatever variation out of your bio! Are you making art? Then you're an artist! Life as a creative can be difficult enough as is. Starting off on the path by putting yourself down doesn't help you.

*stares into camera*
>viciously argues how everything is conflict
>deletes the original post anyway

and this is why i just hang out on my forum these days. people think they can just say things and be correct and its exhausting

"Why do humans only tell stories about conflict?"

Because anything else is a weather report.

Conflict is so broad that it can be broken into infinite categories: Man vs Man, Man vs Nature, Man vs Self... You asking yourself that question is Man vs Self. If there is no conflict, there is no story.
