For anyone who’s feeling silly about getting emotional over the loss of Wildstar, I talked about it with a friend who doesn’t play MMOs, and also expressed the same thought, and here’s what she had to say:

“It was a big part of a lot of peoples’ lives and they invested a lot of time into it, found and maintained friendships because of it. It’s natural to feel sad just like with any big change to someone’s life. Psychologically speaking it would be the same as being forced to move out of a town you’ve lived in for, what, 10 years? Real or virtual, it doesn’t matter to your brain. So yeah, it’s okay and totally understandable to feel lost right now. People will say it’s just a game but fuck those guys ‘cause they don’t understand. The emotional and mental commitment is the same.“

It’s okay to feel your feelings.

…that your creativity, your friendship, and your characters transcend the confines of a single game or fandom. Just because one path becomes closed off to you doesn’t mean you need to give up on your brain babies and the friends you made along the way. They will still be there and they will still love you.

I’ve been getting quite a few asks about the process for the patterns in my stylized artworks, so I decided to put together a couple of tips regarding them. 

Firstly, what you need are

—  CUSTOM BRUSHES  —

Most of the patterns I use are custom brushes I made, such as those:

For the longest time I was convinced making brushes must be super extra complicated. I was super extra wrong. All you need to start is a transparent canvas (2500px x 2500px max):

This will be your brush tip. When you’re satisfied how it looks, click Ctrl+A to select the whole canvas and go to ‘define brush preset’ under the edit menu

You will be asked to name your new glorious creation. Choose something that describes it well, so you can easily find it between all the ‘asfsfgdgd’ brushes you’ve created to be only used once

This is it. Look at it, you have just created a photoshop brush. First time i did I felt like I was cheated my whole life. IT’S SO EASY WHY HASN’T ANYONE TOLD ME 

Time to edit the Good Boi to be more random, so it can be used as a Cool Fancy Pattern. Go into brush settings and change whatever you’d like. Here’s a list of what I do for patterns:

- under Shape Dynamics, I increase Size Jitter and Angle jitter by 5%-15% 

- under Brush Tip Shape, I increase spacing by a shitload. Sometimes it’s like 150%, the point is to get the initial brush tip we painted to be visible.

- If I want it to look random and noisy, I enable the Dual Brush option, which acts like another brush was put on top of the one we’ve created. You can adjust all of the Dual Brush options (Size, Spacing, Scatter, Count) as you wish to get a very nice random brush to smear on your  backgrounds

The result is as above. You can follow the same steps to create whatever brush you need: evenly spaced dots that look like you painted them by hand, geometric pattern to fill the background, a line of perfectly drawn XDs and so on. 

BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE

—  PATHS  —

But what if you want to get lots of circles made of tiny dots? Or you need rows of triangles for your cool background? Photoshop can do all of that for you, thanks to the magic of paths.

Typically, paths window can be found right next to Layers:

Draw whatever path you want, the Shape Tool has quite a bit of options. Remember, paths are completely different from brush strokes and they won’t show up in the navigator. To move a path around, click A to enable path selection tool. You can use Ctrl+T to transform it, and if you move a path while pressing Alt it will be duplicated.

Now, pick a brush you wish really was in place of that path you’ve drawn and go to layers, then choose the layer you want it to be drawn on. Then, click this tiny circle under the Paths window:

Then witness the magic of photoshop doing the drawing for you while you wonder how tf have you managed to forget about this option for the past 2 years 

You can combine special brushes and paths for all sorts of cool effects. I mostly use them in backgrounds for my cards, but you can do whatever you want with them.

I hope that answers the questions for all of the people who were sending me inquires about the patterns. If you have any questions regarding this or any other Photoshop matter feel free to message me, I’m always up for complaining about how great and terrible Photoshop is C’:

I’ve been thinking about the great voice work in WildStar, and how I’d love to see it all saved. Much thanks to @networksubset for pointing to this SoundCloud that pretty much has that covered! Includes the old favorites like the Holo-Crypt Keeper, taxi driver, and transmat, as well as raid banter and story audio! It must have taken a crapload of work to isolate and upload it all!

it’s facial reconstructions of prehistoric humans!!

like, look at this part-homo sapiens, part-neandertal man from well over 30,000 years ago:

doesn’t he just look like a dude you’d wanna hang out with? like he probably washes dishes in the kitchen with you, and has excellent weed

what a charming fellow. what stories he probably has to tell. i’d definitely go shoot the shit with him on Contemplation Rock after i’d finished my day’s work carving a bone flute for the autumn hunting ceremony, or whatever

people have been people ever since people first became people, i tell you what

they all had lives and histories and families and friends and dumb gossip and games they played and total bullshit in which they believed wholeheartedly

they all argued about the nature of the world, and of themselves

they all sang songs

they all drew pictures

they all buried their dead in graves, and they buried their dead in graves well before they did a lot of that other stuff. they buried their dead with flowers, with panther claws, with the bones of animals they’d killed, with the bones of family members who had died at the same time or earlier. they buried their dead with their arms folded across their chests

they fell in love

they took care of their old and their sick and their disabled, even when it cost them

they made new things, and worried about what the new things meant for people everywhere, as a whole

Oh I like him he looks like he would appreciate my jokes

Link to remove your blogs from photosugar

https://www.photosugar.com/remove

In case you missed it, this website is mirroring all the content from Tumblr, which means that all your images and gifs you’ve ever posted on Tumblr are up there without your consent. The developer of the website has provided this link to personally remove your blogs from photosugar.

This is ALL blogs. All of them.

Follow the instructions to get your content off of there.

I don’t have time to go through my entire followers/following list but these are a few that I found mirrored:

@omegastation @forlornmelody @drellvhen @rawliverandcigarettes @n7kiera-ryder @thehumanpathfinder @arkquisitor @sexy-salmon @salmonportfolio @bisexualliaratsoni @tietto @valleniel @asketchbookthing @liamnkosta 

If you haven’t removed your tumblr from this site, it’s probably on there. If you’re an art blog they’re mirroring your art without your permission. Do not use your email in the remove link, I just wrote my Tumblr usernames (Example: Stories-Of-Arani, AraniWrites) into the remove box and all my tumblr’s were removed instantly so make sure you check, especially if you’re an artist! Remember that all of your blogs, including sideblogs, will likely be on here.

Yo thanks for tagging me in this.  I honestly would’ve had no idea that this was a thing, which is worrying because this site is also mirroring reblogs.  So even if artists and the like do remove their own blogs fro this site, unless everyone who reblogs your work also removes their blog… your work is going to be mirrored.
It’s super shady if you ask me, and there doesn’t seem to be any way to stop your posts and original work from eventually ending up on here beyond like… a full DMCA claim.  And if your work isn’t copyrighted, I don’t know if there’s anything at all.  (I hope there is, though, and that someone with more knowledge than me can expand on that.)
The true irony, though?

Like excuse me?  

D– Do you?  You’re mirroring an entire site and all its content without the knowledge or permission of the users and creators, but you take copyright infringement seriously??  What a joke.

It’s ridiculous that it falls to us to manually (try to) remove our content from this dumbass site, rather than them actually being decent and obtaining permission from the creators of the content, but alas.  I’m gonna tag a few people (especially artists, since I follow a bunch of you) that spring to mind here so you can get your blog off here if you wanna.
@vilemie @quizzikemen @nikranel @r-i-v-e-r @sillyjellieart @nayuunart @jubberry @sammiegscribbles @kariniarts @viir-banalras @illusivesoul @ydeme @atanertheartist
(Every single one of these blogs is currently mirrored, I checked.)

I’m super sick atm and far too headachey to keep running blogs through their search but tl;dr if you’re seeing this (even if you’re not tagged) and you haven’t already removed your blog, it’s up there, so go take it down if you want to.

Thank you for tagging me @drellvhen

Anyone seeing this, please share it.

For the artists, writers and other interested parties among you!
