i mean the invaders being from an asian country is accurate to the books, isn’t it? obviously the “white vs asian” thing isn’t ideal but i’m not sure how you could get around it?
i haven’t read them for years but from what i remember john marsden went out of his way to never actually say what race they were?? they were from a semi nearby poor country that wasn’t new zealand is as close as it got. and logically the only countries that fit that description are asian ones, but im still kinda :/ on it
I see this kinda advice passed around all the time here is the thing: shading with black will indeed look bad if you don’t know what you are doing. However, telling people not to do things without explaining why is terrible advice.
Shadows are the opposite of light, this includes in colour.
This means that if you have light in one colour, the shadow will be of the opposing hue, saturation, and value.
Unless the object is white, it has its own local colour –
the object’s true colour, how it would appear if the light were pure white.
The colour of the light influences the local colour of the object. so if you had yourself a brown cube and a blue light, the colours would get bluer and pinker.
now the reason shadows do not tend to be black is because pure white light is hard to find in nature.
the closest you will get to pure white light is during a really overcast day and the sun is filtering through the clouds, but even then
it’ll lean towards yellow so the shadows will be slightly blue.
During a clear day, the shadows will pick up a lot of bounce light from the
But! None of this means you are never allowed to use black.
realistically shadows will have a hint of a colour to them, but stylistically you might be going for, say, a film noir look and deep black shadows are needed for impact for example.
The more you know about how light works, the more informed decisions you can make about shading and the more options you have.
If someone tells you that you can’t do something, they’re wrong! you can do what you like!
yes, black is hard to use and if you just mix a colour with black it’ll get muddy, but thats easily resolved by choosing your colours manually – which ideally you want to do regardless bc the computer doesnt have your eyes & cant choose the colours you like
basically if someone gives you some art advice and says you can’t do something, they’re wrong! you can, you just might need to study
a little to figure out how to make things work.
I mean for example, people will say you must make your composition follow the rule of thirds
and never align centrally, but while the rule of thirds makes it easy to create visual interest, Mad Max Fury Road is a testament to the fact
that central composition can and will work if you experiment.
there are no rules in art! there are theories based on reality, this has been a post on colour theory & light theory, but they exist to inform you, not to restrict you.
Do what you like! Trust your eyes, if you think something looks good, then great! If you don’t, then research & experiment until you do.
Ok since apparently that works I’m gonna explain what I did so other people can do it if they want
I’ve been using tumblr app version 3.4.3 on an ios6 iPhone 3 since it was the most recent version (about two years ago) . I just changed to an ios9 iPhone 4.
Basically the old app was still in iTunes so I just put it on the phone like normal.
It consistently crashed a couple seconds after startup (tho it seemed to work fine otherwise). I put it on airplane mode (which stops it crashing somehow??), got to login screen, entered email/pw, then turned off airplane mode and clicked login before it could crash.
Basically the screens I’ve found it will crash on: dashboard when not logged in, activity tab, search tab.
Dashboard, making posts, liking posts all work apparently.
