Tutorial Tuesday: Drawing the Female Figure
Tutorial Tuesday is here, and this week we’re going to tackle the Female Figure in comics. The basic tutorials and tips I’m going to discuss here applies to drawing females in your typical American mainstream action-hero style. You’ll notice that females vary greatly from genre to genre – you wouldn’t necessarily use some of the tips in this tutorial to draw females in manga, or if you were doing an Indie style comic where the females are normal in appearance. The women in mainstream comics tend to be hyper-sexualized, over proportioned and exaggerated idealistic forms, much like their beefcake counterparts on the male side. For this lesson, I’ve used illustrations from Christopher Hart as a visual aid to explain my points. Okay – let’s begin.

The Quickstart Guide to a Decluttered Home
By Leo Babauta One of my favorite habits that I’ve created since I changed my life 9 years ago is having a decluttered home. I now realize that I always disliked the clutter, but I put off thinking about it because it was unpleasant. The thought of having to deal with all that clutter was overwhelming, and I had too much to do, or I was too tired, so I procrastinated. Clutter, it turns out, is procrastination. But I learned to deal with that procrastination one small chunk at a time, and I cleared it out. Amazing because I didn’t really believe I could do it until I did it. Decluttering my home has meant a more peaceful, minimal life. For anyone looking to begin decluttering, I’d like to offer a short guide on getting started. Start small. These steps won’t get your home decluttered in a weekend.
