The Hopeless Romantic Writer Urge To Write An Orchestra Kid X Rock Band Kid Fic Bc I'm In An Orchestra

I can not put into words how obsessed I am with the fic I am currently working on. It's the Justice League OC insert but I also just keep convincing myself that I could publish it?? For some reason?? I am however way too dedicated to the fanfic communtiy to do that 😭

Anyway, I'm going to start posting more stuff about it soon I swear!! Its just that I have to actually get my shit together first

me, when I first posted FHDT: I'm gonna upload chapters every Monday. I'll work on the fic all the time. Constantly. Even in class because I figured out a way to do that.

me now: It's been 3 weeks and I still haven't finished writing chapter 2

Question for fic readers!

Do you prefer to have translations for words in other languages in the piece of dialogue like just in brackets,

ex. "Dramatic unjann (child)."

or do you prefer to have a little dictionary at the top/bottom of the fic.

The mc of my fic speaks both french (which I'm just writing as english since it's from his pov and a first nation language called Mi'kmaq with his family and I just want to know what people are more comfortable with.

Me vs the urge to write a modern college au where the entire plot is that Kaz somehow got a grill into his dorm and is selling paninis for super cheap and the RA (Van Eck) is NOT thrilled in the slightest

modern au! kaz braids inej's hair in the morning

Final Moments on Stage

Famous Singer Reader x Peter Parker

Summary: It's the final night of your American tour, and you can't help but reflect on your life.

Y/N stared out at the crowd before her. Thousands of people squished into one stadium just to see her. Hear her songs. Her voice. It’s incredible.

“LA, I need to tell you something.” The crowd exploded as she spoke. “I need to tell you how much you mean to me. The fact that you are all here, just to support me, is incredible.”

Y/N turned to face the left side of the stadium, smiling as they cheered for her. “If you had told little 16-year-old me that I would be playing in a venue this big, that this many people wanted to hear my song…I don’t think I would believe you.”

She thought back to all of the shit she went through in her high school years. The bullying and the depression. As she glanced backstage, though, she couldn’t help but think of the best thing to come out of high school. There stood her boyfriend Peter, who had stood with her through it all. The spotlights made it impossible to make him out fully, but there was no mistaking that silhouette.

Y/N turned back to the crowd, knowing they saw her looking backstage. She grinned as she thought about all the fan theories that would come out of her getting distracted.

“I have one more song for you, LA, and then I sadly have to go back home to New York.” She giggled as the crowd booed at her declaration. “Don’t worry, though.”

Her earpiece started counting beats as the soundtrack for her song started playing. Taking a deep breath as the lights changed, she thought of the boy standing offstage waiting for her.

“I’ll be back. I promise.”

things that have happened since Duke got taken into the Batfam:

everyone takes off their shoes when they enter the manor (Alfred is thrilled)

there is now a pouch in everyone's utility belt/inventory for lotion, Vaseline, and chapstick

an adult shouts "no running in the house!" and/or "either you're inside or outside!" to Damian and Jon at least once a week

"you smell like outside" is followed by a literal fire hose spraydown

someone has gotten woken up early on a Saturday/Sunday by loud music and the smell of lemon cleaning chemicals (Alfred is thrilled)

Damian is "twelve" everytime they go to a movie theater or amusement park

Bruce, Dick, Barbara, and Steph have been told to "just bring drinks" to the family cookouts

Hey! I just wanted to ask what kinds of brushes and watercolors you use for your drawings. I really like them! I’m also going to start to use watercolors to paint my traditional drawings. Could I have some tips as well?

Ok so this is a fairly long post.  I tried to be reasonably thorough, and I talk about paint, brushes, and gave some tips, as well as linked some brilliant videos - hopefully that helped :)) feel free to ask for any clarifications though! /gen

Oh, I've accumulated a large amount of watercolours over the years. This is my currently most used palette, that i’ve assembled myself from different palettes throughout the years:

My first set of watercolours was a small Winsor & Newton set, which included these:

I then got this set of Kuretake for my birthday:

And I got some shiny ones from Creadu, though I'm not sure if they're available internationally:

As well as some singular pans also from Winsor & Newton:

Then there's a set i have from my parents. These are older than I am, and some aren't very useable, over all they're pretty good, I'd say.  I have no idea what the brand is, though, or what brand would be closest to them, so that I could recommend it.

Regarding brushes, I’d say the more natural ones are simply incomparable to the cheap ones. I’d take 2 or even 1 good brush over a full set of those plastic ones anytime.

Here’s my full collection, though the plastic ones I use for gouache.  They simply aren’t suitable for watercolours, regardless of how much scammy brands try to convince you.

And these are the ones I use fur watercolours:

You can get some soft, round brushes for relatively cheap - you just need to find a nice art shop.  regarding size, I’d probably get a size 6 if you want to start off with just one brush, and sizes 5 and 10 if you can go for 2.  though that of course depends on how large you want your pieces, ect - but I feel like that’d be a pretty universal choice. I personally mostly use a 6, then go in with a 4 to add details, and add washes to the bg mostly with a 10 - my pieces are usually between half of an A5 sheet of paper, and an A4 one, so that should give you an approximate idea of what you might want to go for.  You need to keep in mind, that most brushes - even the bigger ones - will have a fine tip, when wet, so there really isn’t much of a need to buy anything below a 2, especially at the beginning - simply don’t push down too hard.

In regards to art itself - don’t use white watercolours the way you would with other paints.  Watercolour painting is using the negative space a lot of the time - the white watercolour is never going to be as vibrant and bright as the paper itself, not to mention it won’t be able to cover up the darker colours in the first place, seeing how it’s quite a bit transparent, as watercolours are.

That being said, I highly recommend you use white gel pens!  They can add a very lovely touch in general, not only in watercolours (you can see it in many of my pieces, seeing as I draw on a tinted paper a lot of the time).  Personally, I recommend gelly rolls.  I’ve bought a set of 3 a couple years ago, and they’re still working just fine.  In my experience these are the only gel pens that actually work, though keep in mind I’m from Poland, so there might be something better over where you live.

With watercolours you neeed to start off with the lighter colours, and add more and more dark ones, making sure to leave the brightest spaces blank, and not paint over them.  Be patient, wait for layers to dry, don’t rush it.  Watch videos of how people paint with watercolours, observe, try to learn through imitation!

Aditionally, try not to use blatant, black paint.  Try mixing a couple colours such as dark brown, dak blue, perhaps some red, a bit of yellow, ect - take your time time, and learn how your paint works, and how it mixes!  Ultimately, you don’t really need black and white paints most of the time for watercolours, unlike in other kinds of paint.

Here are some videos I remember being helpful to me personally:

this video by Emily Artful is honestly one of the best videos on that matter that I’ve watched

This video, as well as this video by Kasey Golden are also very helpful

I remember finding this video by Laovaan helpful as well

(for the record, all these three creators are brilliant artists that have helped me learn the medium quite a lot

Ultimately my watercolour and brush collections and skill have been growing over the past, well, more than 6 years, so be patient!

I hope that was helpful, but again, if theres anything else I could help you with, feel free to ask me :)

And have fun!! Good luck, dear!! You’re gonna do great, I’m sure! :DD
