Rat Anatomy Compilation.Rats are very fascinating little creatures. They have small hands like humans, minus the thumbs. They are intelligent and social, and each rat has a unique personality. They can also easily stand on their hind legs, making them an easy transition to an anthropomorphic form for stories and art.
Unfortunately, though, they are damn difficult to draw, and there are precious few resources for those wishing to delve into their anatomical structure (certainly me included). So I will be collecting references, both photos and drawings, that I think might be helpful to someone looking to draw my charming friend Rattus norvegicus (and perhaps some of his closest family members). I will probably add to this from time to time as I find new resources, so please feel free to suggest things that you think might be useful!

MSNBC: Your kids dont belong to youLets just start calling these people what they are...Liberal Fascists.

No, Vox, You ARE Misogynistic!I know you all are probably getting tired of me ranting about Vox Day, but by Celestia's royal mane, I can't help it! I simply can't tolerate how this woman-hater gets away calling himself a "Christian libertarian" when he's clearly neither "Christian" nor "libertarian."
And I don't know which is worse: his misogyny, or the pseudo-intellectualism he uses to defend it. Take for instance the faulty reasoning he uses to explain why women shouldn't have the same rights as men

ecause women are collectively more short-sighted and more self-centered than men, giving them an equal voice in society is tantamount to a slow-motion execution for any society. This is not theoretical, it is observable, as the equalitarian societies of Europe are already demographically in demise and in the process of losing their democracies and their property rights.
I understand that many people believe women's rights ar

[article] Troubleshooting AmericaThis is my attempt to share something very important with you, but in as few words as possible. To share it from an objective point of view, much like that of a Computer Technician. Calmly, without the influences of uncontrolled fear nor insecure ego, to present to you a a big problem, which has solutions more simple than might at first be apparent.
So switch off your dogmas, preferences and belief systems for just a moment, and view this for what it is. Just as you might look at a tree on the hill. You don't have to like a tree, dislike a tree, disagree nor agree with a tree, to just know it is a tree and that it is in fact sitting there on the hill. The tree is not right nor wrong, good nor bad and be it a pleasant tree or ugly tree and whether it has thorns or not, it is just a tree. Simple as that.

Mini RantJust something I'm writing because I'm bored.
I think the one thing I hate most about young artists is that alot of times they ignore body types to make the character more "sexy" to them.
Mostly it's with characters that are more muscular and they turn them into bishies. I'm sorry, but Ryu from Street Fighter is supposed to be a tough guy. Making him skinnier and more feminine than Chun Li just creeps me out. Same reaction when you give a twelve year old anime girl boobs the size of watermelons. Believe me, I'm tempted to do the same thing with my pics, but I'm able to put my prefferences aside for accuracy. Not only that, it really hurts your art if you can only draw one body type, so if anything that's a reason to avoid making you Big Macintosh gijinka look weaker than alot of AJ humanizations out there. He's a farmer and he moved a house while under the Love Poison. He should look more like Cody Travers or hell even Cray from BoF IV.
Speaking of which, I'm off to watch a Breath of F

Code Lyoko Evolution: Episode 12French title: Chaos à Kadic
Airdate: 16th of March

The class is stupefied when Ms Hertz gives their reports back: Odd has been placed first in class while Jeremie and Laura end up at the bottom. The explanation arrives quickly through Mr Delmas: the school’s computer system has bugged up badly. The reports are messed up and 6 tonnes of hay have been delivered to the cafeteria. To Odd’s displeasure, the reports are taken back.
The heroes wonder: was the computer bug linked to XANA? Some of them don’t want to cry “wolf” too early.. But the response arrives quickly. Jeremie’s phone sounds, indicating a XANA alert. Odd, Aelita, Ulrich, Jeremie and Laura go to the factory.
They’re rather embarrassed however when

CISPA is back....https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/stop-cispa-cyber-intelligence-sharing-and-protection-act/19sQhBpy
We've got until the 15th to get 100,000 sigs. Unless you want your internet to be censored, have people watching EVERYTHING you do on your computer, and not have things like Tumblr and Deviantart, post this on your homepage and sign the petition to show that CISPA is BS. Spread the word!

Concerned students are hate mongersAt least, that is the stance of Ryerson University. Three students who had seen the videos of the violent and hateful protests of Warren Farrell noted a very serious problem of "closemindedness". In order to rectify this problem, they sought to form a Men's Group on their campus to raise awareness of problems faced by men and boys.
"In a staggering act of bigotry and hypocrisy, a motion was passed by The Board that makes it official policy that misandry does not exist. Neda Hamzavi, a representative on the RSU Board of Directors introduced the motion, which was passed, according to theeyeopener.com, “without any debate, discussion or dispute.”"
How is this rationalized?
"There’s been a lot of work across campuses not only in Ontario but also across the country that have been working sort of [as] anti-women’s rights groups.
We want to acknowledge that the additions that we added here are regarding the ideas of misandry and reverse-sexism, both of which are oppres

Feminism and Conspiracy theorieshttp://thechildfreelife.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=23080&start=0
I may be disgusted with modern feminism, but come on! This guy is what the feminists should really be going after! Not us! Us calling them out on their bullshit isn't misogyny, but what these guy spews is, in fact, misogyny.
Sad to say, there are other Christians, both male and female, who think like he does. I may be a believer and follower of Christ, but I certainly do not think this way!
This guy, from what I can gather, is part of the fundie fringe of Christianity.

do you have to have premium membership to be able to post little photos of people's art?

Reply

*MoonsongWolf Apr 7, 2012

According to the FAQs, yes, it's a premium member perk: FAQ #66: As a premium member, what extra journal features will I have access to?

Had to look it up, because I wasn't sure!
