The hearing is at the heart of Silicone Valley for a reason. It's meant to damper support and make for an uneven playing field.

Let's show them we're ready to meet them wherever, whenever in support for creatives rights and livelihoods!

2/3 AB-412 has a simple ask for tech, if you use copyrighted materials in your dataset, you must let copyright holders know! That’s it!

Simple, efficient and extremely easy for tech companies to do.

People deserve to know whats in those datasets. Our hard work is not their trade secrets!

Form just gets slightly darker there so it can still work even when lack of strong shadows, like in an overcast day.

Lastly, when in doubt, dont be afraid of getting references, or using 3D models to figure it out! @magicposerapp is brilliant for this! :D

Go get em, and keep at it! 🙌🙌🙌

And if you want a bit on how, it's about keeping the underlying drawing in perspective!

Breaking it down from a simple mannikin frame, to then building a drawing on to it, then refine to a render.

With a LOT of tweaking as you go to make the shape feel just right!
