SCP-026: Afterschool Retention
SCP-026 is a condemned 3-story public school. It came to the Foundation’s attention after several disappearances in the area were linked to visits to the abandoned building. Graffiti and other writing has been noted to disappear and reappear in new locations. The phrase “The children used to sing” has appeared multiple times in various places throughout the building, but there is currently no explanation for its significance.
A number of unconscious subjects have been found in the building, mostly of high school age, ranging from twelve to eighteen and dressed in accordance to the school’s dress code. Several have been identified as former students or faculty of the school who disappeared after the school shut down (in at least one case, more than ten years after the closure). It is currently unknown how they were transported back into SCP-026. All attempts to wake the subjects while inside the building have failed. On being removed from the grounds of SCP-026, the subjects wake abruptly. They experience a period of confusion, before dying from extremely rapid dehydration, followed by advanced decomposition.
An interview with the former principal of the school can be found here. An interview with an agent affected by SCP-026 can be found here. Exploration logs documenting the spatial anomalies of SCP-026 can be found here.
I just went back through over 900 liked posts and dug out all the art tutorials so i can keep track of them. I guess this might be helpful to some of you guys, so here you go.
Here we go then!
Freeware
Alchemy - this is a really fun program. You play around making abstract shapes until you start to see something in them, kind of like a Rorschach test. Then you use the shapes as a base to draw it from.
MyPaint - a pretty decent painting program that also has the benefit of working on Unix systems.
openCanvas 1.1 - I haven’t used openCanvas in years but it was a nice program with a pretty unique feel to it.
ArtRage - Only used this a couple of times donkey’s years ago just before I got oC, but I’ve heard good things about it.
The GIMP - In a similar vein to Photoshop, but free. I couldn’t get on with it when I tried it out a few years ago, but it’s pretty popular and is available on Unix systems and Macs.Sketchbook copic: a bit different program
Not-free-ware
Photoshop - Standard painting fare. Probably the most flexible program (particularly the latest versions) but not designed to act in a “natural” way. If you’ve used it for painting versus something like Painter you know what I mean. Who the fuck pays for it though? Google “Photoshop tumblr masterpost” and take your pick.
Paint Tool Sai - Far more affordable and definitely worth paying for if you can. The brushes are very decent (especially when they’ve been tweaked a little), the gui is simple and intuitive, and I dare you to find a program with which making smooth lineart is easier.
Corel Painter - My program of choice for most things. More tools than you could ever possibly use and pretty cheap on a student license, providing that you can prove you’re a student! It’s got a few bugs but if you want realism or a more natural feel than PS or SAI this is the program for you.Anatomy

That’s Christopher Hart teaching us how to draw men. Seems like a lot of variety. He even includes non-muscular thin men and fat men. Looks good. I’m glad that we have an artist who gets that there’s a variety of characters you might have to draw and that different body shapes adds to the differentiation of characters! How refreshi-
Um… So we have one thin athletic large breasted woman… one thin slightly smaller breasted woman, and a whole bunch of thin large breasted women… and apparently pants are banned in the Hart-verse.
My brain boggles at how he could create those 2 pages and not have his head explode from the double standard.
Edit: I forgot to comment on the captions (I was tired when I was writing this up) Even though men are allowed in the Hart-verse to be fat, apparently they can either be jolly or villains, but not heroes. And with the women he outright admits that we exist only for sex appeal. -_-
“You can’t draw brutish women or you’ll lose the attractiveness!”
I might actually have to hunt this man down and kill him in his sleep. Might have to.

Sometimes I am sinfully envious of the visually artistic.

+ Frozen (Formerly known as The Snow Queen) (TBA) concept art of a previous version of the film
Frozen, a.k.a. The Snow Queen, recently underwent a name change similarly to Tangled. It is assumed that this is another attempt by Disney to capture as many viewers as possible. It is also assumed that this concept art is from a previous version of them film.
