Sometimes people, even therapists, have some thick skulls and they don’t really hear you the first time for whatever reason. Wishing you better luck this time 💜

If you’re in Washington I have some places you could look. If not, I’d recommend finding a queer resource group for your city or region on Facebook or discord or similar and make an aid request there. We have one in the Puget Sound area where I find most of my recs.

I had a similar issue with a therapist until I made it abundantly clear changing plans was actively harmful to me and caused OCD episodes. They then made it a priority to move other patients around so we could meet later in the same day if possible. If yours can’t accommodate you, I’d say move on.

Come to think of it, basically every ‘culture war’ issue is just adults trying to figure out how not to speak to their children about very normal mundane issues. No wonder there’s a crisis of empathy and belonging in this country, parents literally won’t talk to their kids except to scold them.

Best of luck condensing, just finished up removing all my side projects from my station to focus on a painting comp. Still have to find a home for some unprimed models but otherwise ready to lock in

My immediate first thought was “did James Sommerton write this?”

You’re probably right.

And I say this because it’s related to my experience with the colors I suggested. You said it’s very bright based on this representation, I was giving another example of my opinion about their references here.

I didn’t say it was, I said it’s not faithfully rendering the image shown. I realize it’s pictures taken of test squares, but they also acknowledge some of the colors are off, hence the key at the bottom. There is no such thing as a perfect digital image, I’m saying this one is off, that’s all.

Side note, I disagree with that palette’s rendering, blood angels is several shades more orange than shown there.

In my experience it’s thin enough it’ll blend very well with the yellow if you use both, maybe with some medium if it’s still too bright. Just a personal preference rec tho, try just the yellow over brown and tan, maybe that’s all it needs.

Contrasts are your friend. Magmadroth looks to be the right shade, likely mixed with iyanden

I need you to know how much it nourishes my soul to see someone else call it gcucks because my wife won’t let me lmao

settle down everyfuta 😿
